Chapter 2

James' POV

It is now September and it has been three months sense Hogwarts ended. We have not been called in for a mission yet, but that's just because we just got out of school.

"We need to get to the Order." I said getting on his shoes and jacket.

"Why?" Lily asked getting her stuff on also.

"An emergency mission." I said walking out the door. "Dumbledore just sent me an owl." I grabbed Lily's hand and we apparated straight to the Order. Once we got there everyone was already waiting. Dumbledore spoke up.

"I know I have called everyone that is in the Order here today, but I am only going to send Potter, Evans, Black, Prewett and Longbottom. The rest of you will be here for when they come back. Hogwarts has just started so I need to get back to the castle. This mission is very simple but does involve Death Eaters, there are only three: Malfoy, Yaxley and…" Dumbledore looked at me. "Snape," He said with an apologetic look on his face. "Now, they are all at a muggle café in Surrey called Gracie's Gingersnap Café. Please be careful, because these are some of the most dangerous Death Eaters. If anything bad happens, please contact me immediately." Dumbledore quickly apparates back to the school.

"Come here, Lily." I told her after everyone had apparated to the café. I think in my head Gracie's Gingersnap Café, Surrey. I hear a pop and a weird feeling under my belly button and we are there. We end up in an ally right next to the Café, same with everyone else.

"Okay, lets go in." Lily tells everyone. We wall put our wands away but keep then in easy reach.

"Hi, may I help you?" A waitress came up to everyone.

"A table for five, please." Lily said kindly. The waitress brought us to a table and sat us down.

"Your server will be right with you." Lily smiles at her as the waitress walks away.

"Now, we need to keep a close eye out for Malfoy, Yaxley and… Snape." Lily had a little trouble saying Snapes name but I shook it off.

"Hi, my name is Katelyn, may I take your order?" A teenage girl comes over to us, not looking happy and not as preppy as our last waitress.

"Er, can I please have lemon water?" Lily asked kindly.

"Same." Everyone agreed, too caught up on trying to look for the Death Eaters.

"Guys! We have to look natural." Lily exclaimed looking at everyone.

"Lily!" I exclaimed in a whisper. I was facing the door and she was across from me so she couldn't see who just walked in. She turned around to look at the door.

"It's Bellatrix!" Alice exclaimed. She said it a little too loudly and she looked over. We all quickly ducked under the table until I said it was all clear; she had left the café.

"I thought Dumbledore said there was only three!" Frank said getting up with everyone else.

"I guess there is an unexpected guest." Sirius said, putting his hand on his wand in his pocket. We walked out of the café to see and empty street.

"Alice and Frank, go that way, Lily, Sirius and I will go this way." I said. We split up and Lily, Sirius and I walked to the left of the building door. We were now traveling down a long dark ally way.

Snap!

We all quickly pivoted to our right to where the sound came from. We started walking forward and saw that the path split in half.

"Ill go this way." Lily said pointing to the left of us.

"Then I am coming with you," I stated. "Sirius you will be alright by yourself, right?" Sirius nodded. "Send me your patronus if you need help." And we walked off in different directions.

Lily and I start to walk down the ally, wands out in ready position. We hear something crack around the corner in front of us. When we turn the corner we see no one other than the famous Severus Snape. Once he sees us he tries to back up but he is at a dead end.

"L-Lily!" He says in surprise.

"What are you doing here, Snape?" She asked in a very angry tone.

"T-The Dark Lord wanted us to come and find you," Snape answers, stuttering. "I was hoping I wasn't going to be the one to find you." He was looking Lily in her eyes. Then he noticed I was there.

"What are you doing here?" He asked getting angry.

"Protecting my fiancé, thank you for asking." I said crossing my arms. Snape looked down at Lily's hand and saw the wedding ring. Sadness grew on his face.

"You are seriously marrying this blood-traitor?" Snape asks, gaining his courage back and looking at Lily.

"Yes, I am." Lily said grabbing my hand.

"Crucio!" Snape yelling pointing his wand at me. Instantly I felt a sharp extreme pain going all through my body. It was like knives were being stabbed in every single inch of skin. I was running out of air and I couldn't breathe. I was screaming so hard. On top of the all the stabbing pain, I could feel tear drop on my arms. I wanted to tell Lily I was Ok, I really did but no words would come out of my mouth. Suddenly all the pain had stopped and I could breathe again.

"James… James! Please wake up!" I could hear Lily yelling through her sobs. "How could you do this?! I love him! If you really truly care about me then you wouldn't have done this!" Lily yelled at Snape.

"Lily, he is such a git! How could you marry him?! Even through all the things he did to me and you!"

"I love him! He is not the same James that we knew, and you obviously aren't the same Snape that I knew." I heard Lily say.

"Lily, please don't marry him." Snape said warningly.

"Your opinion doesn't matter anymore, Snape." Lily says evilly.

"But, Lily! Do you not remember what he used to do to us?!" Snape begged.

"There is no us anymore. I have to admit, probably when I was nine I had a little crush on you but you totally ruined it by becoming a Death Eater. Actually, I do have to thank you for something." Lily said in a matter-of-factly voice.

"W-what?" Snape stuttered, still taken aback by what lily had said.

"If it weren't for you, James and I would have never gotten together." This crossed the lines for Snape.

"Cruci—"

"Stupefy!" Lily was faster than Snape so he was outcold before he could even get the spell out. "Expecto Patronum!" Lily exclaimed. "Sirius! James needs help, Snape is out cold. Please follow my patronus to where we are." Next o heard a whoosh indicating that the patronus had left.

When Lily and I first joined the Order, Dumbledore had told us that he made it so only Order members could talk to each other through their patronus'. It was very brilliant. All you had to do is cast your patronus and talk to it what you want it to say then it goes where you want it to go. It reminds me of a Howler.

"Sirius!" Lily exclaimed as I heard Sirius' footsteps approach.

"What happened?"Sirius asked, kneeling down next to me.

"Snape crucioed his for more than thirty seconds." Lily explained to him.

"That bloody, git!" Sirius yelled. I heard footsteps walk away from me. "Ugh!" I heard Sirius grunt. Im guessing that he kicked Snape's unconscious body.

Next thing I knew I was lying on my bed at my house. I fluttered my eyes as I stretched, opening them up.

"Oh, good you're awake," Lily said getting up and coming over to me. "You have been out cold for three days!"

"Three days?!" I quickly sat up but Lily pushed me down. I suddenly felt dizzy. I heard footsteps coming up the stairs.

"I heard voices and thought the bloody git might be finally awake." Sirius said laughing. I heard people chattering downstairs.

"Who else is here?" I asked, seeing that Sirius has a drink in his hand.

"Marlene, Alice and Frank, Moony and Wormtail, er, Professor Dumbledore and Madam Pomfrey." Sirius answered.

"What is Madam Pomfrey doing here?" I asked confused.

"James, you were crucioed for more than thirty seconds, you could have been seriously hurt!" Lily exclaimed. I looked over to her and saw her eyes watering up.

"I heard you and Snapes fight." I said sitting up.

"Oh, well, lets forget about him." She said looking out the window.

"What did you guys fight about?" Sirius asked.

"Well, er, he asked me why I was marrying James and I kind of ticked him off." She said guiltily.

"How?" Sirius asked.

"I, um, thanked him for getting James and I together. I said if it weren't for him then James and I wouldn't be together." She let out one nervous laugh. "Then, he almost crucioed me also."

"What?!" Sirius exclaimed. "Lily! Now he is going to be so pissed off. You don't know what you have done!"

"Padfoot, calm down, she did it for a good reason." I defend Lily. I turned and smiled at her. She came over and kissed me on my forehead.

"I'll let you get some rest, Sweety." Next thing I knew I was alone.

Lily's POV

"Sir, will James be OK?" I asked. He looked at Madam Promfrey.

"He will be just fine, Sweety. James is one strong boy, but he does get hurt… a lot." We all laugh at the comment Madam Pomfrey had made. After everyone left I made some tea and went up stairs. I handed it to James.

"Thank you for standing up for me, Lily." James said, sitting up.

"Oh, no problem. We have to get used to it anyways." I said, looking at my cup. James lifted up my chin with his finger

"Everything will be ok, Lily. I promise. If it is the last thing I have to do then I will make sure you stay safe." He promised me. I smiled. We both leaned in and kissed. After a couple minutes we finally broke apart. I climbed into bed with him, out my head into his chest and fell asleep.
