Chapter 14:
Lily awoke to find herself in the hospital wing. She sat up and looked around, but as she looked she heard a faint unusual sound coming from the bed next to her. Lily giggled, as she had never heard such a noise before, it was coming out of James's mouth. Lily lied back into her pillows and watched James sleep.
"He looks so peaceful," Lily thought to herself as she smiled.
James started to stir; he sat up and stretched his arms as his eyes flickered open.
"Hi," he yawned.
"Hey," smiled Lily as she watched him with fascination.
"What happened before?" asked Lily.
"Well, you fainted in my arms since I'm so irresistible," laughed James as he moved to face Lily.
"No, really?" laughed Lily.
James studied her face, the smile of her lips; the dimple in her right cheek and of course the kindness that showed in her eyes as she looked at him. He had never seen the light sparkle that seemed to have appeared in her eyes.
Lily tipped her head to the side waiting for James to tell her what happened. She grinned at him.
"Well the Slytherin seeker was coming in, and I mean fast. I don't think he was planning to stop as he really wanted that snitch, but anyway I came in from the left and grabbed you by the waist just before he crashed into the stand" replied James in a serious voice.
"So Gryffindor lost?" asked Lily with a bit of disappointment in her voice.
"Of course not," laughed James as he pulled out a small tiny ball from his pocket.
James leaned over from his bed to Lily.
"Well in fact you caught it, so I guess you should keep it" James whispered into her ear.
Lily's cheeks went red as James put the snitch in her hand and closed her fingers around it.
"I caught it?" Lily asked confused.
"Yeah, you were waving your arms around like mad and it somehow settled in your hand," laughed James.
"Well, Miss Evans it is good to see your awake, so I think it would be good if you leave and let Mr. Potter rest as he will be here for a few days" Madam Cunnings explained.
Lily got up out of bed and put on her sneakers.
"Can I just have a few words with James before I go" replied Lily as she looked at James.
"Of course, but be quick," replied Madam Cunnings before she went back into her office.
"How is your leg anyway?" asked Lily
"It's ok I guess, can't really feel anything, bit stiff actually" replied James as he struggled to move.
"I hope you get better James" Lily replied before she went through the door.
But before she went through James yelled out to her.
"By the way, if you have a look on the snitch you'll find something on it" and with a cheeky grin he shut the curtains.
Lily walked out the door and started climbing up the stairs. Arguing with herself on whether she should look at it or not. But curiosity got the better of her, so she unclenched her fist and saw on the golden ball, small engraved writing:
My Dearest Lily
You have stolen my heart, my soul and my love.
Can't you see I'm nuts about you?
Living through life without you is pain, but when I'm with you I see the love of my life,
The girl of my dreams, the one I'll love forever and always and forever on.
My love is with you forever
James
xx
Lily stopped walking, tears where in her eyes as she read the engraved writing over and over again.
"He loves me," she whispered to herself.
She turned on her heels and ran back down the stairs and ran down the corridor that lead to the hospital wing, she came in through the door puffing and saw James sitting up on his pillows looking out the window.
"James" Lily puffed, as she looked at him with tears in her eyes.
James turned around and saw Lily standing in the doorway, her eyes sparkling tears.
Lily ran over and flung herself into his arms giving him a huge hug.
"Is this true?" Lily asked James as she stopped hugging him and looked up into his brown eyes.
"Every word" James replied.
Lily smiled and cried as she kissed him, feeling the love she had always known she had, drift through her body and into his, making them one at last.
