:: Chapter Ten Movie Night
The six had finished their putt-putt game and had rented The Notebook. They had an early dinner, and slipped into their pajamas around eight so they could have a Movie Night. Three love chairs were perfectly spaced in front of the plasma big screen T.V. James got out three bags of popcorn and placed them one at a time in the microwave.
The movie started, Lily snuggled up to James, laid her head on his chest and started watching the movie. James looked over at Sirius and Margaret, not much to his surprise the two were not watching the movie, but snogging. He shifted his glance to Lily, her hair, oh her hair, was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen in his life. He kissed the back of Lily's head. "Hun, I love you."
"I love you too James," Lily turned her head so she was facing James. "Look at Margaret and Sirius, isn't it just gross? They need a room or something."
"Yes, but there's Sirius for ya," James said shifting his glance over to Remus and Bri, who were watching the movie, like any other normal couple. "At least we know those two," Nodding his head over to Remus and Bri, "Aren't nutters."
"Yes, they aren't" Lily laughed and turned her head back to the movie.
The movie was over, Bri and Remus had fallen asleep, Sirius and Margaret had gone to bed early because the movie was too boring, and James and Lily were watching it. James noticed that Lily's body began to tremble, "What's wrong my pet?"
"Nothing, it's just so happy, I can't help but cry." She replied back.
"Yes, I guess I can see that. But, it could also be a chick thing."
Lily turned and looked at James; she still had tears rolling down her cheeks. He lifted his hand off of Lily's waist and with his thumb he wiped the tears from her eyes. "Come on, I'll walk you to your room."
The two went up the stairs, but instead of turning to go into his room he followed Lily into hers. "What are you doing in here James?" Lily asked.
"I'm not ready to leave you yet, at least not for tonight." James led her out onto her balcony. "It feels better out here." He sat down and motioned Lily to sit in his lap.
They stayed up and talked up until 12 and Lily finally said, "James, I really need to get some sleep, I have a surprise for you tomorrow, though."
"Ok, my pet. I can't wait!" James said kissing Lily goodnight. He got up (after Lily of course) and walked out of her room and into his.
Lily also walked out of the balcony and set her clock for 6:00 in the morning. She had to get up early for James' surprise and she couldn't miss it. She crawled into her covers and once again fell asleep by thinking of James.
:: Chapter Eleven Surprise
"Ringgggg, ringggggg, ringgggggggggggggg," Lily's alarm clock sounded.
"Ok, I'm up." She replied by hitting the off button. Lily swung her legs over to the side of her bed and got out of bed. She walked down to the kitchen and started making a cup of lemon tea. While waiting she walked back upstairs and went into James' room. "James babe, it's time to wake up."
"Ugh… what time is it?" He replied.
"6:00."
"Go away!! It's too early!!"
"It's time for your surprise though."
Instantly James opened his hazel eyes and got out of bed. Lily looked at him and laughed, all he was in was his smiley face boxers.
"You like?" James joked.
"Heck yes," Lily replied walking closer to him. She ran his fingers through his hair then slapped him. "Come on, we have to get there in time or we will miss it."
"Ouch what I get for loving an Evans."
Both of them walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. By the time they got down Lily's tea was done and they were ready to go. They walked out of the door and onto the porch.
"Where do we go from here?" James asked.
"Just grab onto my arm and I will Appart from here. Because if we walk, we will miss it." She replied.
James grabbed Lily's arm and before he new it, they were on a huge wooden pier. There were two chairs set up at the end of the pier.
"What's this, my pet?" asked James.
"You will see, go sit on a chair," Commanded Lily.
Both of them walked down to the end of the pier and sat down in the chairs. Almost instantly a gigantic golden-yellow ball (also known as the sun…) arose from in front of them.
"Woah…" James admired.
"I thought that since you showed me the sun set, I'd show you the sun rise. I think that despite how beautiful sun sets are they are very depressing; symbolizing the end of the day. But, sunrises symbolize the beginning of the day. "
James held Lily's hand and watched the sun rise. "Lily Evans, you are the best girl friend a guy could ever have. I love you so much."
Lily felt a pang of conscious in the pit of her stomach. 'I really don't love James do I? Of course I don't… right? I don't want to say it back if I don't mean it. But wasn't that what I wanted? To tear James apart and pretend that I love him, but tell him I don't at the end of the summer? It kind of seems harsh now that I think about it. But I don't love him… right?' Lily was saying in her head. She sighed.
"Lily, are you ok? You seem kind of distant."
"Yes, James I'm ok. Isn't the sky so pretty, it's so purple and pink," Said Lily changing the subject.
They sat in silence until the sun completely rose over the horizon.
"Come on, we better get back before the others wake up." James said.
Both Apparted and were back in the kitchen of James' beach house. It was now 8:00 and Margaret was coming down the stairs, "Y'all are up kind of early aren't you?"
"Um…. Ya… couldn't sleep." Lily replied quickly.
"Same," James added.
Soon everyone was up and eating breakfast, just simple cereal. "You know I was thinking on what your mom said James, about us maybe inviting our families to come down here for the weekend, well we should do it on the Fourth of July!" said Bri.
"That's a great idea!" added Remus and everyone agreed.
"Yes, I suppose we could use our tent, and have a cookout weekend thing. It sounds like fun." James said.
The six of them spent the rest of the day sitting, in their pajamas, making plans for their big Fourth Bash.
:: Chapter Twelve This Kiss
It was a week before the fourth, and all the preparations were set. Everyone asked their families and everyone said yes of course. Remus, Sirius, and James decided that they needed fireworks, so the three decided to take a day and travel to the United States and go to South of the Border. This meant that Lily, Margaret, and Bri had the whole day to themselves.
The three had decided to go shopping for a new outfit for the cookout.
"It's so sweltering hot out here," Complained Margaret.
"I know!! We should've gone to the Alps instead of the beach," Wined Bri.
"Do I need to do an Insta-Cool spell on y'all to stop wining?" Asked Lily.
Margaret and Bri nodded, "Too hot to talk… must cool down." Margaret panted.
The three walked back inside and Lily whipped out her wand and mumbled a spell and instantly the girls were cools, not too cold but just right.
"Can we go now?" asked Lily.
They walked outside for a second time and started for the strip malls. It was 12:00 when they walked passed Taylor's Beachside Shop, and it was 12:01 when Taylor came out.
"Hello Lily, I haven't seen you in a while."
Lily twisted around to face Taylor, "Oh, hi. How are you?"
"I'm doing just fine; hey I have an idea, why don't you three come to lunch with me. Its lunchtime and I really don't like eating alone."
"I'm starving so I'm game." Bri replied and Margaret agreed with Bri.
"I guess so." Lily said smugly.
"Great then where will it be?"
"Wherever you were going is fine." Lily said.
"Is Don 'Jose ok with you? It's Mexican."
"I love Mexican food!" The trio said simultaneously.
Taylor laughed and linked arms with Lily and Margaret, "Well then, it's a date!"
Lily felt slightly guilty at the word 'date' because she shouldn't be going if it was a 'date' because she had James. But it was James and it's not like she'd do anything with Taylor on this 'date'. And she shouldn't care about James because she didn't care about him in that way right…
It took them 20 minutes to walk to Don 'Jose and sit down. It was fairly busy at 12:20 and it surprised Lily. The four sat down, Lily and Taylor on one side of the booth and Margaret and Bri on the other.
"So, what do you normally get here?" Lily asked Taylor looking directly into his eyes.
Taylor broke the stare, "Normally I get two tacos, rice, and beans."
"Yum, that sounds good." Margaret was really hungry so anything sounded good to her.
"I think the pollo loca sounds good. It comes with chicken and rice." Lily said looking at her menu.
The four of them sat in silence snacking on chips and salsa while deciding what to order. Lily went with the pollo loca, Taylor the 2 tacos rice and beans, Margaret the same as Taylor, and Bri burrito pabulin. Not so long after they ordered they got their food.
"It all looks so good." Bri mused.
"It tastes wonderful," Lily said.
It took them forty-five minutes to eat. "I asked y'all, it's my treat." Taylor insisted while he was paying the bill. When they walked outside Taylor pulled Lily to the opposite side of the building.
"What are you doing Taylor?"
"I just needed to talk to you alone. I really wasn't planning on taking a lunch break today, but when I saw you, I had to take my chances."
"So are you saying that you lied to us so I would go somewhere with you?"
"Well kind of, it does seem to appear that way. Ever since that day you came into my shop and bought Warheads, I've thought about you every waking hour of my life. I think I am in love with you Lily." Lily was pinned up to the wall of the restaurant and Taylor lunged forward and kissed her straight on the lips. Lily tried fighting him off, but in a few seconds she got tired and just gave up. After about thirty more seconds Taylor pulled away. "Did you feel anything?"
Lily started weeping, "Maybe one or two sparks, but I should've felt none at all! I guess I forgot to mention that I have a boyfriend!" Lily pulled out of his grasp and ran to find Bri and Margaret.
:: Chapter Thirteen Partay!!
It was the night of July 3rd. All of the families had arrived and got settled into the tent the Potters had. Being the charming people the Potters are they decided to take everyone out to dinner at Colonial's Pizza.
"Thank you so much for inviting us to your wonderful home." Mrs. Evans said.
"I would love to take credit for this, but it was all the kids' idea; thank them."
"Well thank you." Mrs. Frey—Margaret's mom—said. "But I have one question, why are we celebrating an American holiday if we're British?" she asked.
Bri laughed, "Last summer my family and I spent some time with our American relatives and we had a huge Fourth of July cookout and Mrs. Potter said that maybe we could have a huge party with all of y'all, so I figured it would be a perfect opportunity to take that advantage."
"That party was a whole lot of fun." Lauren—Bri's sister—agreed.
"Are American customs different than ours?" Chet—Margaret's brother—asked.
"You bet they are. They talk sooo weird!! We went to Virginia and they talk with that weird Southern accent. It's just weird to get used to." Lauren replied looking into Chat's hazel eyes.
Bri and Margaret both realized what was happening with the two of them, and broke down laughing. Everyone quizzically looked at the two girls then started laughing along with them even though they didn't know what they were laughing at. The restaurant was packed with people and they looked at the group like they were on crack or something.
The rest of the night went smoothly and stayed up and talked getting to know each other better until 2:00 A.M.
The lot of them got up around 10ish got ready for the day (bathing suits and sunscreen) and went back down to the beach. They girls laid out their over-sized towels and the guys ran down to the water. The girls laughed at the way the guys ran in the water and all fell down hard when they couldn't go any farther.
"Lauren, so last night I couldn't help but noticing that you were eyeing my little brother Chat." Margaret said.
Lauren blushed, "Well… he isn't bad looking at all… in fact he is quite hot." She admitted.
They all laughed, even the older ladies, like young schoolgirls. "I could always put in a good word for you, if you wanted of course." Margaret added.
"Could you?!? That would be AWESOME!!" and then Lauren blushed, "If that wouldn't be a problem of course."
"Lily," Mrs. Potter said getting the subject off of Lauren, "I know for a fact that my Jamsie Poo has been smitten with you since the first time he saw you that first day you guys walked onto Platform 9 ¾ during the summers he's talked about you nonstop!!"
"Yes I know that, when we were at Hogwarts he didn't try and hide his 'feelings' for me. But now it doesn't matter because we are kinda sorta going out."
"Oh that's great, just wonderful!!" Mrs. Potter exclaimed.
"And why didn't you tell me this young lady?" Mrs. Evans asked.
"Sorry mom, I was going to, I just forgot." Lily said.
"Bri, what is your love life been like?" Mrs. Cox asked.
Bri blushed, "Well you see that guy over there?" Bri pointed to Remus, "Well… he's sort of my boyfriend."
"He's sooo cute Bri, Why didn't you tell me?!?"
"Mom, I'm going out with Remus Lupin. See I did." Bri laughed.
"Margaret, you know what I'm going to ask, soo… Do you have a boyfriend that we I don't know about?" Mrs. Frey asked.
"MAN!! I was hoping you weren't going to ask me that question. Do you see that guy over there?" Margaret asked, "I'm going out with him. Mom I'm going out with Sirius Black."
"Well aren't I just shocked!!" Mrs. Frey exclaimed.
The nine of them shared juicy gossip stories until they got so hot they had to go and take a dip in the water. They were a bit more civil than the guys, and didn't go plunging into the water. Instead they gracefully plunged into the water.
"Finally you're in the water my pet. I was about to come out there and carry you in here myself," Laughed James.
"Oh very funny Jamsie Poo I am really laughing on the inside I swear." Lily sarcastically laughed. In response to that James picked Lily up and threw her farther from the shore.
The few hours went by extremely fast and it was time for everyone to get ready for the cookout. The teenagers grabbed their clothes and ran to go get ready in the house. The adults got ready in the tent and all met out on the back patio.
It was 5:00 and Mr. Potter started cooking the hotdogs and hamburgers. The women set out all of the "cookout food" and the teenagers sat around talking getting to know each other better.
Margaret was talking to Chat away from the group putting in a good word for Lauren.
"So Jen, how have you been this summer?" Sirius asked.
"I've been just fine and dandy. Rather boring, though haven't really done anything but shop. Which can still get rather boring," Jen said rolling her eyes.
Soon Margaret and Chat came back. "Lauren, can I talk to you for a second?" Chat asked.
"Um…Okay, sure!!" Lauren said trying not to sound too desperate. The two walked away from the group towards the water.
"Listen, I know that we don't know each other very well, but, I was wondering if you would like to be my girlfriend." Chat said.
"Sure I would love to!!" Lauren exclaimed.
Chat took Lauren's hand and they walked back to the others. The others looked at the two and went right back to talking about whatever they were talking about.
"I just can't believe that it's our last year at Hogwarts next year." Lily said.
"It's crazy, these past six years have gone by so quickly." Remus agreed.
"I mean it will be way harder to pull pranks after we've graduated." Sirius joked.
"Of course you are worrying about your school pranks." Margaret replied.
"I wonder who will get the Heads." Bri wondered.
"Lily and Remus of course will get it!!" Margaret exclaimed. Both blushed.
"It's time to eat everyone," Mr. Potter yelled.
"FINALLY I'm starving!!" James said running to the table where the food was.
"Prongs wait up!!" Sirius said running after James.
The cookout went on until the sun was setting. Each couple sat arm in arm and watched the sun set, and the moon rise. Finally when the sky got dark enough James, Remus, and Sirius went to the side of the house and got a mattress that their South of the Boarder fireworks was laying on. The three of them calmed the ocean and floated the mattress far out in the water. When the mattress was far enough in the water there were five seconds of darkness and then there was a spark and a BOOM!! The fireworks had begun. One after another there were a flash of some sort of colorful light and a second after a huge boom. The fireworks went on for forty-five minutes. James held Lily and after every other firework he kissed her. The day was perfect, and the fireworks were perfect. After the fireworks everyone was just so tired they fell asleep on the beach.
:: Chapter Fourteen The Freak
It was a week after their Fourth of July party and everyone was lying down at the beach.
"I can't believe the summer is half over!" Bri complained, "I really don't want to go back to school."
"It may be half over but it has been a good half," Remus replied, "and it's our last year at Hogwarts, last year to see the castle.-"
Sirius interrupted, "AND Mooney, last year to prank the teachers."
James high-5ed Sirius, "I agree Padfoot we need a huge prank to end the year. But we've done everything we could've done."
"That's enough of your evil plotting boys," Margaret commanded, "Who do you think the Heads will be this year?"
"Lily and Remus of course!!" Bri exclaimed, "Everyone knows they are the two most responsible people in our year."
Lily blushed, "Yes, but I didn't think that Dumbledore picked Heads in the same House."
"But since when has Dumbledore played-much less listened- to the rules?" James asked, "And during these dangerous times, he's not going to take any chances of anyone getting hurt."
"Dangerous times, James what do you know that we don't?" Lily asked, "What are you talking about?"
"Evidently there is this freak named Voldemort is loose and killing innocent Muggle-borns and Muggles just for the fun of it. When all of our families were here my dad told me and said to tell y'all to watch out. Don't go anywhere alone or unarmed."
"But he can't go around killing people…" Bri was interrupted.
"Why not? I'm not saying I agree with His actions, because I don't, but whose there to tell him not to?" Sirius asked.
"What I was saying is he'd need an army-or people- to help. And if' he's dangerous why aren't the Aurors trying to catch him? Isn't it their job?" She finished.
"Well evidently He does have an army, they call themselves Death Eaters. And the Aurors are trying hard to find them. That's why my dad told me, he's joining this secret Order and he wanted to tell me. I'm so nervous that he might get hurt, or worse killed." James worried.
Lily crawled over to James and hugged him, "Your dad will be just fine, and he could probably take 3 Death Eaters at once."
"Thanks Lils, I just can't help but worry."
"James, did you say that He's killing Muggleborns?" Bri looked at Lily and Lily looked at Bri with scared eyes.
"Oh gosh, I forgot Lily and Bri!! Do you want me to get my dad to send a couple of people to watch them so they don't get hurt?" James asked.
Remus hugged Bri and James hugged Lily. "I will be fine; there are more people than just my family." Lily boldly said.
"Yes, I agree, don't worry about." Bri added, but you could tell by both of their eyes they were scared out of their wits.
:: Fifteen Words I Couldn't Say
The rest of July flew by. It was now August 4th. Everybody had gone out to the movies except for Lily. She felt like she had to stay home for some reason. Some alone time she had told James.
"I will stay with you Lily." He had said earlier.
"It's fine James, go with them, I need some alone time for myself." She had replied.
So they had left. It was noon and Lily was lying on the hammock reading a book. Well she was looking at the pages, but wasn't reading the words. Instead she was thinking about this summer, and about a certain someone.
'I can't really be like James Potter can I? He's the person that I've hated since the first day I met him on the Hogwarts Express. All of those pranks him and Sirius have pulled on me for 6 years. Not to mention all those times James stated his "love" for me. He can't really love me, he's too young, he doesn't know what love means. Does he?'
Lily shook this thought from her head and turned back to her book. 'Man, am I hungry. Should I stay in or go get something and bring it back here? Back here unquestionably.
Lily walked to a Wendy's and ordered a cheeseburger and a baked potato. Eating it she felt rather lonely. There was an odd feeling in the pit of her stomach that something was wrong.
Dear Ms. Evans,
I am extremely sorry to have to tell you this, but I have no choice to. I'm sure James has told you about Voldemort and his Death Eaters. Well, last night his Death Eaters struck once again. But this time it was a group of people who are not only close to me, but who are extremely close to you. Last night three Death Eaters attacked your house in the wee hours of the morning. Fortunately Aurors (Dark wizard catchers) got there before your family was killed. They were tortured a lot and have been transferred to St. Mungos so the Healers can heal them. Right now your parents and sister are unconscious. I know that you are at the beach right now, but you probably should be with your family. One again I am so sorry to have to be the one to tell you this. Also I wish you and your family the best of luck.
Sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore
P.S. Keep your friends and family close in these dark and difficult times.
: Lily was lying on her bed crying. She knew she had to go back home to see her parents. But how was she going to tell James?
: 'Come on Lily think!! You don't even have any feelings for him!!' She thought for a few seconds and she had it, "That's it!!" she said out loud, "I will write a letter explaining why I have to break up with him and leave in such a hurry!!"
: Quickly she packed up her stuff (magic makes life so much better) and started on the note. Struggling she wrote all she knew and was off right as she heard the door knob opening.
::: James had just gotten home from a long day with his friends. (Except for Lily)
::: "Lily, Lily, where are you? Are you in here?" James ran through the beach house looking for Lily. She was no where to be found. She just was down at the beach right? James ran out the back door and looked up and down at the empty beach. Nowhere to be found.
::: "James mate, are you ok? Where's Evans?" Sirius, Remus, Bri, and Margaret walked outside.
::: "I don't know. I'm getting worried. What if something happened to her? What if the Death Eaters got to her? If they did I won't be able to live knowing that it was my fault." He replied.
::: "She's not dead and it's not your fault." Bri said looking at the kitchen counter, "Hey, what is that piece of paper?"
::: James bolted to the counter and grabbed the piece of paper.
::: Dear James,
::: I would like to start with saying thank you so much for letting me staying with you at your beach house. I had such a fine time with you (and the gang) I will treasure it forever. Make sure you tell your parents thank you for letting us stay too. But now I must say one of the two things that I have to. Do you want the good news or the bad news first? Well they both are pretty bad. So I will start with why I had to go in such a hurry. Today Dumbledore sent me an owl and said that three Death Eaters attacked my family. The good news is that they aren't dead but the Death Eaters tortured them a lot. So Dumbledore suggested that I rush to St. Mungos and be with my parents and Petunia and that's why I'm not there anymore. And now for the other not so good news. I don't think that I can see you anymore. At the beginning of the summer my intentions were that I'd go out with you and breakup with you to try and hurt you. But as the summer progressed I realized that that idea was cruel and mean. I soon realized that you aren't the heartless, cruel, and egotistical person that I thought you were. James, I really do like you, but I really think that we are better off as friends. I would have liked to tell you this in person, but my family comes first. Also you don't have to come to St. Mungos or owl me. I'd actually feel better if you didn't. Just wait and I will try and explain more in detail when we go back to Hogwarts. I really still do want to be friends; I'm just now realizing that you could be a great friend. I guess I'm the heartless, cruel, and egotistical person. I really do hope that we can still be friends though. See you in a month.
::: Sincerely,
::: Lily Evans
: It was 8:00 P.M. on August 27th. Her family was let out of St. Mungos a week after they were transferred and everything was back to normal. After Petunia had learned who did the things to her she provoked Lily even more just because she was a witch.
: "I can't believe your kind almost killed me!! I wouldn't be surprised if you were one of the bad people." She had said that night at dinner.
: "YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO THEY ARE OR WHAT THEY'RE DOING!! EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T LIKE ME I'D NEVER TRY TO KILL YOU!!" Lily had yelled back. Truth was that since that last day at the beach she was extremely moody.
: After she blew up at Petunia her parents sent her to her room. It was ok with her though, she'd rather be in her room up on her roof. Away from people, away from the world. But not away from herself and her feelings. She was unsure of if her decision about breaking up with James was a good one, but she couldn't handle everything at once.
: She was just looking up at the stars and another Hogwarts owl came swooping down and landed right on her knee. She patted the owl took the letter off its leg and it was off again.
: She felt a bit scared opening this letter, although she knew it was the Hogwarts Letter for school; she couldn't help but hesitating opening it.
: 'Here it is Lily Evans, time to see if you are Head Girl, all of those times you were a suck-up to the teachers I sure deserve it.' She said to herself.
: She skimmed the letter, 'same stuff yadda, yadda, yadda. Here it is!! The Head Girl is Lily Evans.' She let out a sigh of relief.
: 'and the Head Boy is…' she gasped for breath, 'James Potter'
::: James was sitting at dinner when his letter came. Since that day Lily left his summer was quiet. The 5 of them left the beach house the next day because it didn't feel right without Lily there. Sure Sirius was staying for the rest of the summer with the Potters, but almost the whole time James was home (unless it was meal time) he was either secluded in his room or isolated in Mrs. Potter's garden.
::: The owl flew into the Potter's open window and stuck his leg out at James. He took the three letters off and threw one of them to Sirius and one of them to Jennifer. Skimming the letter he noticed that it said something about Head Boy. Retracing his steps he reread that sentence.
::: "Hey guys guess what… right now you are looking at the new Head Boy!!"
::: "Good for you honey." Mrs. Potter said.
::: "I'm so proud of you son. Just like your old dad here. Head Boy in Gryffindor too." Mr. Potter added. "Who's the Head Girl?"
::: "Well of course Lily Evans is," Sirius answered for James. "She's the teacher's pet suck-up in our year."
::: "I never even thought of that. It's going to be extremely strange being in the Heads Common room with her after all that's happened this summer." James worried. "I'm not hungry at all, and I don't feel good at all so I think I'm going go up to my room and try to sleep."
::: "Ok James, are you ok? Oh, and don't forget Diagon Alley tomorrow." Mrs. Potter replied.
::: "Ok mom, see you guys tomorrow." James climbed the stairs to his room locked himself in and turned on his radio.
: Lily climbed back in her room and turned on her radio. Walking to her bookshelf she started singing Moments of Happiness from the Broadway musical Cats. She decided that she would her all time favorite book of all times to get her mind off of school. She grabbed I Capture the Castle and flopped down on her bed.
: Before she started to read it, there looked like something was in the book so she flipped directly to that page. And on that page wasn't just an unforgotten bookmark, but a beautiful pink and white lily. Just as soon as she saw that lily, she remembered all that had happened over at James' house.
"This whole garden, this maze my mother made, is an eternal-living garden. It will never die."
"But what does that have to do with us?"
"Everything, I really don't know how to say this but… We are exactly like this garden. Different is so many ways, but joined together by the green hedge. I guess what I am trying to say is that the day this garden dies is the day I stop loving you, which I might remind you is never." James stopped and looked into Lily's eyes; they were full of tears just waiting for her to blink. She just looked into his eyes and him hers. James took the Lily from his hand and put it into hers. "If you ever need me, you will always be able to find me, Lily, don't ever forget that."
She was crying now. She just got the garden of eternal living. Mrs. Potter hadn't put a charm of never dying on the garden. She had put a charm that as long as she had love, her beautiful garden would stay alive. Just like the garden it wasn't a question if Mrs. Potter had love it wasn't a question that James loved Lily. He had always loved her and he always would. He would still want to be friends because without Lily his 'garden' would die.
::: James went to his closet and pulled out a garment bag. Unzipping the bag he caught an aroma of Lily. Along with the note Lily left her black dress James had given her. She had left if on her bed and this was the first time that he had gotten it out. He missed her so much, missed her voice, her touch, just everything about her. James started to cry.
::: "And now here is the new song from Rascal Flatts entitled 'Words I Couldn't Say.'" The radio guy said.
: "And now here is the new song from Rascal Flatts entitled 'Words I Couldn't Say.'" They radio guy said.
In a book- in a box- in the closet
In a line- in a song I once heard
In a moment on a front porch late one June
In a breath inside a whisper beneath the mooon
There it was at the tip of my fingers
There it was on the tip of my tongue
There you were and I had never been that far
There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms
And I let it all slip away
What do I do now that you're gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldn't say
There's a rain that will never stop fallin
There a wall that I tried to take down
What I should have said just wouldn't pass my lips
So I held back and now we've come to this
And it too late now
What do I do now that your gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldn't say
What do I do now that your gone
No back up plan no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldn't say
: Lily was lying on her bed face down hugging a pillow and crying her eyes out after that song. Nothing would ever be the same. She realized now that she couldn't live without James and that she loved him.
::: James was laying stomach up crying his eyes out once the song ended. He had already known that he could never live with out Lily, but now how was he going to get her back? He would get her back wouldn't he?
The two of them just cried for an hour straight and then fell asleep. Lily had fallen asleep with the lily on her heart. James had fallen asleep with the dress draped across him. There was one thing for sure though; it was going to be one weird school year.
