A/N – Well here is the next chapter to my story hope you like it, next chapter should be up soon I hope. Enjoy everyone :)

Chapter 22:

"LILY," screamed James as he tried to move.

The ropes tightened around his legs and wrists, making him bleed more, but just as James had given up hope, he heard a yell come from the corridor, a faint yell, but it was certainly human.

"HELP," yelled James as he tried to move himself near the door.

James heard running footsteps; he yelled again. The footsteps were becoming louder, as they came running down the corridor. But finally they came through the door.

"Sirius," muttered James.

Sirius ran over and chanted a spell to untie James. James ran over to Lily, forgetting altogether the sensational pain he was feeling. He kneeled down next to her feeling her pulse on her neck, Sirius was kneeling on the other side of her, checking her pulse on her wrist, both of them looked up at each other.

"She…she…can't," stuttered James, as he looked at Sirius's saddened face.

"No…no…NO," yelled James as he flung himself onto Lily, hugging himself to her.

Sirius had tears in his eyes but wiped them away quickly, he stood up and grabbed at James's arm, but James savagely pushed him away, crying softly into Lily's soft hair. Sirius grabbed onto his arm and lifted him up. James put on a small fight but gave up quickly as Sirius had put him into a sort of lock so he couldn't move. Sirius then muttered a spell, which levitated both Snape and Lily, making James suddenly realize Snape was still in the room.

"I'LL KILL HIM," yelled James as he threw Sirius off him with so much force Sirius fell to the ground in surprise.

Snape who had already started to stir, woke instantly as a pair of hands were around his neck, suffocating him.

"YOU BASTARD, YOU KILLED HER, YOU KILLED HER," screamed James as his hands tightened around Snape's throat.

Snape couldn't reply. All that came out of his mouth was a gurgling noise, his face was starting to turn a shade of blue and his eyes were rolling into the back of his head. Sirius ran at James grabbing at his hands, trying to unlink them from James's grasp on Snape. But James's hands were glued on he wouldn't let go until Snape was dead.

"LET GO OF HIM JAMES," yelled Sirius as he struggled with James's hands.

James had a murderous look in his eye but when he looked at Sirius, he realized he was doing the exact same thing Sirius had done to Gary, James's grip slipped and Sirius grabbed his hands. James started to feel dizzy, he looked at his blood soaked hands, and the cuts on his wrists, realizing then how much pain he was in. He felt his knees give way and he fell to the cold hard cement, he crawled over to where Lily laid emotionless, he grabbed her hand and stroked it softly as silent tears went down his cheeks.

"She can't be dead, she can't be," whispered James as he laid down next to her, still stroking her hand with his, also realizing then how cold her hand was.

He pushed her beautiful red hair out of her face and looked at her face, it had a smeared black spot on her chin and a small cut around her eyebrow, her eyes were closed.

"I love you Lily," James whispered in her ear before he fell unconscious.

A/N – Well did you like, took me awhile to consider if I should leave it there or not, but you all wanted the next chapter up pronto so I should write longer on the next one. Well review and tell me what you think. :)

P.S justxanotherxfanaticx – You asked me if I got the idea from A Cinderella Story. Even though that is one of my fav movies I wasn't actually thinking about it at the time I was just writing it down from my head, no ideas from anything really lol :) strange I know, but I'm glad you are enjoying it.

All the other reviews are great remember if you want to ask question feel free I'll answer them :)

Love always Troubled Tazzy
