Chapter 10
Anakin stared at Lily in disbelief.
"This isn't funny," he told her.
Lily met his gaze squarely. "I'm not joking."
The golden egg sat on the table between them. They knew what the clue was; they knew what the second task was. But they still had a problem.
Anakin slumped back in his chair. "I can't believe you didn't work this out earlier, Lily! This whole thing was your idea!"
"I'm sorry, alright? I didn't think of it. I made a mistake." She paused. "I know how to pass the third task –"
"That won't help if we can't pass the second!"
Lily circled the table, and wrapped her arms around Anakin from behind. "It will be alright, love," she whispered in his ear. "We'll find a way. We'll figure something out. There's still time."
Anakin wasn't so easily placated. "We need to find a solution before the Yule Ball."
Lily kissed his cheek. "Don't worry. We'll come up with something."
Neither spoke the words aloud, but both shared the same thought.
'I hope.'
A/N: Please! I'm begging! I NEED ideas! If I don't get some soon, I won't be able to keep writing! And I don't want to stop writing this fic! I've grown rather more attached to it then I expected when I started.
Please? Anything? Anything at all? I'm not asking for much. I don't want a whole story. I just want some ideas for how Anakin and Lily can pass the second task.
A/N: One more thing.
I will be changing the title of this story to "Lily Potter and the Goblet of Fire".
Please review to let me know you've seen this note. I'll also write a note in the summary when I change the title.
