A/N: It took me quite a while to come up with something to go a long with this line that I really liked and this was an idea that just had to be written. It's quite short but I didn't feel it needed anything more than this. Hope you enjoy :)

She Can Ruin Your Faith with her Casual Lies

"Send me a Stag if you need too." Lily said throwing her coat over her shoulders before giving James a quick kiss and opening the front door of their London flat. Patroni where Dumbledore's brilliant new idea for communication between Order members.

"Will do." He replied taking hold of the door as she spun around looking for the bag she had left by it earlier. "Oh, you never told me what yours was," James stated his free hand brushing against her bright hair as she gave him a final kiss goodbye. He had been on a mission for the past couple days when Lily had learnt her Patronus and they had 't done much talking when he arrived home last night.

"A Butterfly," She replied quickly throwing him a wink before kissing him once more and with a wave goodbye she flew down the street to meet Alice, soon to be Longbottom. They were going wedding dress shopping.

"A Butterfly," James repeated confusedly, his was a stag, weren't soul mates supposed to have matching Patroni?

Before anyone could comprehend James had thrown himself into a wild panic and was bashing on the door of his best friend, Sirius Black's flat. He lived there with Remus and it was only a floor above Lily and James', there was no separating the Marauders. Although Peter was currently living with his sick mother but he visited most weekends.

"What the hell James?"Sirius yelled as he threw open the door only a towel round his waist.

"Lily's patronus is a Butterfly." James replied as if this explained everything and let himself into the flat to flop, miserable, on their sofa.

"Moony, can you please come deal with the Drama Queen," Sirius yelled before returning to his room.

"What's up Prongs?" Remus asked carrying over a cup of tea, "you haven't look this upset since Lily washed you lucky Quiddich socks," he joked.

"Lily's Patronus is a Butterfly, she told me this morning" James repeated sinking deeper into the sofa as he stared mournfully at the coffee table.

"And?" Remus asked tentatively.

"And!" James exploded, exactly what Remus had been trying to avoid, "Soul mates are supposed to have matching Patroni. But Lily has a Butterfly! A Stag isn't even close to a Butterfly! Does that mean I don't love her enough to change, because I've always been a stag, I know she calls me stubborn but I never realised I was this stubborn, I always thought she was more stubborn than me. I just like teasing her really, and she looks so hot when she gets all riled up about something, when I don't agree with her, her eyes get this look an-" James was cut off by Remus putting his hands over his ears and humming loudly to cut out what he guessed was coming next.

"Sorry," James muttered as Remus warily lowered his hands.

"Prongs I'm sur-" Remus started but was cut off by James continuing his earlier rant, just remembering to keep it clean this time, for Remus.

"Or maybe she doesn't love me, I mean she did hesitate when I asked her to marry her but I thought that was just because she was in the middle of taking a sip of her drink when I sort of splurted it out and to be honest I was pretty impressed she didn't choke, she looked so surprised. But she just looked so happy and, as soon as the choking risk was over, she screamed 'yes' so loudly I was kind of glad we hadn't chosen a crowded restaurant and the way she threw her arms around me and kissed me-" James was cut off again by Remus, this time he chose to sing the English national anthem, an odd choice James thought.

But before he could comment a silvery blue light entered the apartment slowly forming into a beautiful doe. "James," It whispered soothingly in a voice James' whole being responded too.

"Lily," he sighed all his worries leaving him in one breath and then came the rest of the message...
