*Lily's POV

I awoke with a start. For real this time. Tears streaming down my face and my shirt stuck to my body with sweat, I looked around to make sure everything was as it should be. Getting up and turning on the light I walked over to my en-suit bathroom. Still shaking I turned on the tap and splashed water on my face. It was just a dream, not real. Why am I so freaked out? Is it the fact that in the future I get married and have kids with James? Or was it that James loved me so much he would sacrifice himself for me? Or was it that I loved him so much I would sacrifice myself for our child? I was abruptly pulled from my thoughts when my phone rang. With my hands still shaking furiously I managed to answer.

"Hello?" I tried to make her voice sound strong like it usually was but she couldn't help it an so my voice sounded small and shaky.

"Hey Lily, are you ok?" Oh it was just Remus.

"Remus? Yeah I'm fine why?" I ask

"Well I was awake and I saw your light come on." He says awkwardly.

"Oh. It was just a dream. More of a nightmare actually."

"What about?" Should I tell him? Will he judge me? No this is Remus. You can trust him.

"Uh…um…James…" I finally confess.

"Do you want to talk about it?" No I definitely do not.

"No. But thanks for calling." And with that I hang up the phone. The conversation with Remus has calmed me slightly and so with thoughts of James and Harry swimming in my mind I fall into a fitful sleep.

*Remus's POV

Lily hangs up on me. I had my phone on speaker as James and Sirius are staying the night. James had been staring across the street at her house all night and when the light came on he made me call her.

"She had a nightmare about me? Does she hate me that much?" James looks depressed.

"Maybe you weren't the monster, maybe you were the one that saved her." Sirius says hopefully.

"It didn't sound that way. Any way I'm tired, so night." He is clearly trying to get off the topic though in his head he's probably mentally planning the next way to woo her! He's persistent that's for sure. I mean he's tried everything, he must be running out of idea's. James falls asleep immediately and it's just me and Sirius.

"We've got to do something about that." He says pointing at James.

"I don't think there is anything we can do." I looked at him sadly. Me and Sirius fell asleep soon after. I can't wait to go to Hogwarts tomorrow…

I woke bright and early, I was too excited to sleep. Kicking Sirius and James who were asleep on the floor I dragged my trunk downstairs and went and got some breakfast. Five minutes later Sirius and James appear. The my phone buzz's.

Lily: Hey, so Mum said you had James and Sirius stay over last night so your car will be full so I'm going to get a taxi. See you at Kings Cross. X

Me: Lily it's no problem, you can come if you want. X

Lily: No I'm fine honestly I'll see you there. X

Me: If you say so. X

"Moony, who are you texting?" Sirius is so nosy

"Lily. She said she's going to get a lift with Myer."

"Lily has a phone?" Wizards… I roll my eyes.

"Everyone has a phone but you two."

"Well, I'll buy a phone and the you can give me her number and I'll text her."

Just then my sister walks in. She sits down and starts eating toast all the while never looking up from her phone.

"Morning Clary."

"Oh, hey." She looks up briefly. Clary is a year younger than me and used to go to Beaboux but she's transferring to Hogwarts this year because she got expelled.

"So Clary, what did you get expelled for." Sirius asks probably trying to get some ideas.

"Oh you know, the usual…" She says vaguely.

"She blew up the History room."

"How many times do I have to tell you? It was an accident."

"Yeah sure it was. By the way Lily can't make it."

"What!" She quickly dials a number on her phone and puts in speaker phone for our sake.

"Hey Lily."

"Hey Clary"

"So how come your leaving me with my brother and his two retarded friends."

Lily laughs on the other end of the phone and James and Sirius scowl.

"Sorry, but there wouldn't be enough room. Besides my mum booked me a taxi!"

"Oooo! Posh!"

"Not really. You'll never guess who my taxi driver is!"

"Who?"

"Ok but don't tell your brother or his friends."

"Fine. Just tell me already!"

"Regulus Black, you know Sirius's hotter brother!"

"What!" Clary breaks into hysterics. "Who would give him a job?"

"I don't know but I have to go finish packing see you later." The call ends. James looks like he is about to explode.

Eventually we manage to calm James down. The we're on the road to Kings Cross. At Kings Cross we go through the barrier and arrive on the busy bustling platform of nine and three quarters.
