September and October were going by very fast for Lily and James. With head duties, homework, Quidditch, and the party, they had a lot on their plates. Lily was thinking about costumes then I came to her in DADA.

"I have got it! I know! YES!" She was so excited. She had the perfect costume idea and even though she got many strange looks and was scolded for interrupting class, she raced to James in the hallway to tell him her idea.

"I have our costume idea! Ok so you know the Flintstones?"

"Ya."

"Well since I have red hair and you have black I was thinking we could go as Velma and Fred Flintstone! Isn't that so cute! We are like little cave people!"

"That's amazing! So glad that off our chest now. Well I got to History of Magic. See ya Lil!" James yelled.

"Bye babe!" she answered back.

She had a free period so she started putting up the decorations. It was October 25th so she had to start. Lily hung up cobwebs and put tabled together. By the time James got there to help, they had half of it completed. She was so excited for it. That weekend, they went to Hogsmeade. James and lily were to go find costumes with their friends so they could all meet up at the Three Broomsticks. They went to Wanda's Costume Boutique and found adorable clothes. Alice told them that Frank was coming in for the party. She said that she was so excited to see him and was flipping out about how she needed to look perfect.

"You will Al. It's time to meet up with the boys. Let's go Mary. Step away from the shoes." Said Lily.

It was the day of the party and the girls woke up at noon. They all showered and got on sweats and t-shirts for brunch. When they got back it was go time. The party started at 5:30 so they had 4 hours. They did each other's nail and did facial masks. Alice was going as Frankensteins wife so her hair was going straight up. It took 4 spells to make it stay. She put on a lot of white and green powder and red lipstick. She had on a ripped white gown to the floor and was wearing black platform heels. She look gorgeous, in a dead sort of way. Next was Mary. She and Remus were little red riding hood and the big bad wolf (ironic right?). She put on a red plaid dress and red hood. She loosely curled her brown hair and tied half of it up in a ribbon. Lily put her hair up in a curly up-do with a bone. She wore red lipstick and had cartoon eyes. She had on a white, one shouldered mini dress with bare feet. She added dark make-up to her feet to make them look dirty. Cynthia was doing her own thing on her bed. She was going as an angel. She looked white as a ghost and was wearing a hideous dress, but the girls gritted their teeth and said she looked great.

"Finally! The party! Let's go down to see our boys!" screamed Mary!

"I'm going to the docks to meet Frank, I'll see you in there." Said Alice.

The girls walked down to the common room to see their boys. James was in an orange and black dress thingy with a blue tie, and Remus was in a wolf mask and had a very hairy body. Sirius went to get his date from Hufflepuff, they went as Elvis and Marilyn Monroe. And Peter and his date from Ravenclaw were Homer and Marge Simpson.

"James you look so, rugged and Cave man like!" Lily squealed!

"You look absolutely gorgeous as ever Lils." James replied

They walked down to the Great hall to see ghosts, and blood, and coffins. It looked great. Everyone's costumes were fantastic. Except Slytherins, who mostly dressed up as each other.

Lily's favorite was a Batman and Robin couple. James and Lily got so many compliments on the party décor and the band they selected to play, the Ghostly Goblins from Ireland. They danced and when they got tired they went to their seats.

"Lily, I love you. And I am so happy that you are mine." Said James from out of nowhere.

"Well I love you too babe. You cant be touched." Replied Lily.

Sirius and his date came over a bit later. He looked like a man whore and she looked like a stut. She chose the bathing suit Marilyn costume to wear.

"Hey everyone this is Connie." Sirius introduced.

"It's Cara." She corrected.

"Ya… whatever." He said back.

Mary and Remus kept dancing. It was 11:00 o'clock so all the little ones went back to their dormitories. The slow songs started to come on so James pulled lily of her seat and walked her to the dance floor. They danced and danced for hours. Until the teachers told everyone it was their last song. James pulled her closer and kissed her affectionately. Lily thought about life after Hogwarts when she saw Alice and Frank dancing together. He held her like she was the most precious diamond in the universe and she looked like the happiest girl on earth in his arms. Lily wanted that so badly, then she stopped herself. She did have that. She was wrapped up so protectively in James' arms and she never wanted to be let go. He and Lily had their ups and downs, but one thing is for sure, she loved him and only him. There was no question about it. At that moment, she knew that this was the man she was going to spend the rest of her life with. She then looked into his eyes and he knew it, too. James and Lily walked up to there dorms and kissed each other good night. It was 1:00 a.m. and they just stayed there looking into each other's eyes.

"James?"

"Ya?"

"I'm not tired. And I'm hungry. I want sweet potato chips and a big steak. Can you get that for me?" Lily asked.

"I can't. But I know who can. Give me a second." He said. James pulled out a silvery cloak from his trunk a few moments later and came back to the common room. Lily was there and he wrapped his arms around her and put the cloak over them. He walked her to a portrait of a bowl of fruit and tickled the pear. Then it swung open to a kitchen with a seated bar for them to sit. They sat down and ran a bell. A house elf scurried up to them.

"My name is Kenny. What can I get for you Miss Lily and Mister James?" he asked.

"I would like some sweet potato chips and a steak cooked medium rare with garlic butter please." Said Lily.

"And I would love some barbeque ribs with extra salty French fries and 2 butterbeers please."

"Alrighty. It will be 15 minutes Mister James and Miss Lily." Kenny answered then scurried off.

"Is this where you boys always go in the night?" asked Lily.

"Yep. And the House are so good at making food, it's like a gift from God." Replied James.

They sat there and talked and ate their food. Lily's steak was perfect and James devoured his ribs. Once they had finished eating and the house elves had gone to bed, James looked Lily straight in the eye and said, "I love you. I want you forever and for you to be mine. I know that it's a crazy world right now, but if I die knowing you were mine, I would die the happiest man in the universe." He then got on one knee, pulled out a ring box, and asked, "Lily Marie Evans, the love of my life, will you be mine for eternity and always?" Lily had tears rolling down here face as she jumped on him and screamed, "Yes! Almighty God! Yes!" James laughed and kissed her. He put the 18 carat diamond with a silver band around her left ring finger and looked at his fiancé, and said, "You just made me the happiest man alive Miss Evans."

She laughed through her tears and corrected him, "Mrs. Potter, you mean."

"I love the sound of that!" They laughed and kissed and then went back up to their dormitories and kissed again. It was the perfect ending to the perfect night.
