((So I am desperatly sorry it took me so long to actually continue this, hopefully more will be comming as soon as possible ))

Reunions, can go.. interestingly. There's always people you want to see, and people you don't. Occasionally, there's things you don't want people to find out about, or things you want to hide, and the reunion becomes a dreaded event. But it wasn't like it had been a long anticipated one. It had only been a few short months since graduation. Everyone's first Christmas since they're days at the old school for witchcraft and wizardry. It was a much more of a 'catching up with old friends you haven't seen together in months' than a reunion.

The house was rather crowded. It wasn't too large, but large enough. It was decorated brilliantly with a traditional christmas tree, mistletoe in door frames, christmas elves running about, and other various muggle and wizard christmas decorations giving the home a certain holiday feel. Tons of random faces filled the room, smiling friends and laughing and joking about random stories. Everyone was having a good time- nearly everyone at least. Lily couldn't stop thinking about her random meeting in Diagon Alley.

She felt guilty. Why did she feel guilty? James Potter was an arrogant prat, they were over, she was over him, and everything was just fantastic. Er- fantastic was not the right word to use, she didn't feel fantastic. Something felt wrong, maybe she wasn't as over James as she had thought. No. Definetly not. She was over him, more than over him actually. But her emerald eyes kept wandering over to the door frame, curious as to whether or not the infamous James Potter would should himself. Remus was already there afterall, she thought she had scene Peter, it made sense James would show up. But would he? Why could she not stop looking- stopping thinking about him? Maybe she was simply going crazy with guilt. Yes that made enough sense in the young woman's mind.

"Everything alright Lils?" Amos asked his hand slipping casually to the small of her back. She was currently standing in the mix of a small group- most of which Amos' freind's from school- but she was clearly the only one not paying any attention to the conversation occuring between the group.

"Oh uh-" she began snapping out of her thoughts, quickly returning to reality. "Yes, everything's fine. I think I'm going to run to the kitchen and see if Marlene needs help with anything." she continued, forcing a smile onto her lips before she quickly kissed the boys cheek.

"Alright, if you need anything, I'll be here." he added, a slight bit of suspicion in his voice.

"I'm fine really." she added with a reassuring nod, before pushing through the crowd, giving random smiles and hellos when suitible before slipping into the surprisingly empty kitchen.

"Oh, Lils there you are." the brunnette began with a smile, sipping from the mug of butterbeer in her hand, "I burnt the damn rolls, I swear I'll never figure out cooking with or without magi- something wrong?" Marlene's tone of voice changed rather quickly, noticing the slight signs of distress on the red head's face.

"In all honest love, I think I'm going mad." It seemed to be the only option that made sense, obviously Lily had not resorted to thinking logically yet.

"Nonsense darling, you're quite sane if you ask me. Now are you going to tell me what this all about or shall I jump to my own conclusions?" A faint smile tugged at the edges of Marlene's lips, curious of what was going on in the red head's mind.

"Well you see-" as she spoke, she moved into the room, plopping down lazily on an empty chair, "I ran into James in Diagon Al-"

"You did! Lovely Lily! How is he did you talk? I mean are two-" Marlene interupted, immiediatly getting excited about the reunion in Diagon Alley. In her opinion, Lily should of said something months ago to the young man, but Lily wouldn't exactly take anyone's advice in regards to the break up.

"We talked- briefly, we're about to talk more until Amos showed up."

"So James knows about you and Am-"

"Well, he found out then and there. Things were going fine, then the moment Amos got there, James just- well I don't know, changed instantly and dramatically. He seemed pissed to put it simply. "

"I don't blame him from what I heard he's still in love with you."

"God knows with James, I wouldn't doubt it . But now I just can't stop thinking about it. And I feel guilty and I don't know why I feel guilty."

"Maybe you still love him." A slight grin appeared on Marlene's lips as she looked at Lily. In her mind, it would have been wonderful for the pair to get back together, but Lily never really seemed to think that idea was so wonderful.

She rolled her eyes shaking her head as she stood up, "I think I'm just going to get some air."

"Suit yourself Lils, but if you want my opinion.-"

"I know your opinion, but I just don't know if I like it."
With that she grabbed her jacket, and headed off towards the back door of the old home.
