Hey guys! I decided to write more content into this collection because I remembered few other things that were meant to be here. I also added a new scene into chapters 4 and 5 because I forgot to write them in last year, ooops. You can check them out too if you like.
In this chapter I will bring to you the actual ending of Secrets Revealed. I was considering on whether or not I should write this but I decided to do it because the current 5 chapters doesn't really bring the story to a proper conclusion that I had visionalized in my head so this chapter is here for you to read.
I do not own Harry Potter. Characters and the world belongs to J.K. RowlingOnly the storyline, OC characters and the lyrics are owned by me.
Part 6 – "The Last Chapter"
Lily had decided to finally make one of her dreams true – she wanted to hold a concert at the Quidditch Pitch of Hogwarts. She had been dreaming about rocking the stadium for a night for about two years, ever since she had watched James' team beat Ravenclaw at the last Quidditch match in the spring of Fifth Year. Lily had been 16 years old at the time, and it had been one of the rare moments when she had had free time to watch those games.
On that day, however, Lily had spent most of the game dreaming about a concert on that stadium with the round shaped center stage in the middle of it.
And now the dream was about to come true.
Lily had visited GD Music Group to meet with her team to discuss the idea and she did have to convince them that it was something she really, really wanted to happen before she left Hogwarts because she wouldn't be able to return later and she wanted to have no regrets by the time she graduated and went home. Her team eventually understood her reasoning and the planning began. They decided to use the setlist of her upcoming tour to make things easier, but they wouldn't be using the same massive stage that Lily was planning to use.
After the meeting and deciding on the rehearsal schedules, Lily returned to Hogwarts where she would hide her plans to not to ruin the surprise.
But in general people were still talking about her and James' public relationship. It had been only few weeks after they had gon3 public with it in Hogsmeade and people were still mostly obsessed with it. Really the only people who didn't care or expressed their disgust at it were Julia and her friends and Krystal – Julia hated it because James was happy with Lily and Krystal said shagging him was just a publicity stunt for Lily. Redhead rolled her eyes at them every single time because it sounded so hilarious to her.
"Why are you even wasting your time on talking about mine and James' relationship anyways?" Lily eventually asked them both.
They both suddenly had something to do elsewhere.
Lily couldn't help but chuckle at them both for that behaviour.
Speaking of Krystal Wales, she had quickly continued where she left off years ago when it came to her singing career – she had only wanted to update the songs she had been working on and then she would release the material and finish her debut album. Lily had quickly noticed that their relationship had gone ice cold very soon after she and James had helped her. Krystal had become a cold diva who expected everybody at school and at the record company to do everything for her. She had began to demand things and required people to carry her stuff around like as if she was royalty.
She had even spread rumors that James was really her man, not Lily's, but James denied them saying Lily's the only one for him.
Even though Lily thought James had been super cute by saying that, she had also realized that she understood perfectly why Allison had wanted to get rid of Krystal.
Her behaviour was infuriating as hell.
Krystal hadn't even forgiven Allison for her mistake. Instead, as Lily had heard, Krystal had had a complete meltdown over it and she threatened to sue Allison if she still tries to come and talk to her about the issue. Even Krystal's new manager – who was also Allison's worst competitor at the agency – involved by filing a restraining order on Allison for "stalking" her client. Lily was angry about that because she knew Allison had been genuine with her remorse regarding what had happened. She couldn't understand Krystal's reaction at all.
"I genuinely thought she wanted to fix things and talk about it", Lily had told Allison when she was told about the meeting that had ended in a failure.
"She's been hating on us for far too long", Allison said and sighed. "Oh well, I tried, at least. I'm going go move on and concentrate on my work now", Lily's manager had then said.
It was the last discussion regarding the matter, and they never spoke about it again.
Krystal, however, had decided to turn everything into a competition between her and Satine from then on and claimed she will overthrow Satine from her throne as the best sold GD Music Group artist in years. That's how her management began to promote her debut single. Lily had no interest in competing with her but she knew Krystal would always try to outdo her now no matter what she did.
"I think it's better if I just don't react to it much", Lily had told her team at the meeting regarding her dream performance at Hogwarts. "Nobody will care if I don't. I only do this because I love music and singing, not to be the top bitch out there. Let her play her stupid little games if she wants to."
When Lily had told all this to James after returning to school after the meeting, he had just rolled his gorgeous hazel eyes and said,
"That chick's not a problem, honey, if she wants to be an ungrateful asshole to us, her arrogance will bite her in the ass eventually anyways."
Lily agreed with him because he was right – Krystal could say all she wanted, and be as arrogant as she wanted, but she could never tell how successful she really would become. She hadn't even released anything yet!
"Besides, my dear Lily, I'm way more interested in helping you out of that outfit of yours so we can have some fun tonight…" James added with a playful smirk on his face as his hands found their way under her shirt.
Lily couldn't resist that smirk at all – or the shivers of pleasure that his touch on her skin made her go through. In fact, the moment their lips met in the Room of Requirement, she literally forgot everything else. It was just Lily and James in their own little world showing each other how much they really loved one another.
Eventually Lily found herself from James' parents house having dinner with them. His parents wanted to meet their son's girlfriend and Lily had agreed to go. Of course she was very nervous about meeting them and wondered if they will like her but James told her not to worry about it. Lily hid her worries, and then she forgot to be nervous because the person who opened the door for her was James' cousin Marian Raito, who excitedly hugged Lily before even greeting her.
Lily remembered this energetic curly haired girl from Hogwarts, she had graduated last year. She had always been into photography and had been seen taking photos everywhere. Not to mention how obsessed she had been with the idea of pairing Lily and James up. Neither of them had made any advances on one another because James had been with Julia at the time but Marian was convinced that there was something between James and Lily instead. Marian didn't even care if Julia was around when she started her matchmaking attempts, and because of that Lily was hundred percent sure that Marian just hated Julia so much that she did all she could to make her go away.
"I always knew you two will end up together", Marian said excitedly. "Julia was the wrong woman for you, Jamie, good that you came to your senses!"
"She dumped me, Marian, not the other way around", James told her.
Marian just waved it away as a thing that wasn't so important and then grinned. "So, Lily, I had no idea you were the infamous pop superstar behind the quiet school girl. How were you able to hide it so long?"
"I'm a pro at hiding things, I guess", Lily told her as she was guided into the huge mansion where Potters had lived for generations.
"You certainly were!" Marian excitedly agreed as they went to the living room where James' parents – along with Ralph and Melanie – already were.
James' mother immediately got up from her chair and walked over smiling sweetly.
"Hello, Lily, it's good to finally meet the girl who is good for my son", she said and hugged Lily as a greeting.
"It's good to meet you too, Mrs. Potter", Lily said and smiled.
"She's a pretty girl, son", Mr. Potter said and shook Lily's hand as James mumbled something inaudible.
"Nice to meet you too, Mr. Potter", Lily said politely.
"We didn't know you're coming here today, Lily", Melanie said and hugged Lily. "Don't be nervous around these two, they're the sweetest people on this planet", she whispered to redhead's ear.
Lily could only nod as an answer because Marian dragged her to the closest couch to sit down and amused looking James only followed them. He sat next to Lily and they began chatting. Lily was asked about her family and her career by James' parents and Marian and Lily told them everything. She even revealed she's gonna have a concert at Hogwarts on the graduation day. Marian was excited, James and his parents were surprised and Ralph and Melanie were calm because they already knew about the plan.
"I wish I was still at Hogwarts", Marian sighed. "I doubt they will allow me to come over though, McGonagall especially wouldn't be happy because I partied too hard after my graduation, remember James?"
"Hard to forget that epic meltdown McGonagall had afterwards", James grinned.
Lily chuckled. She remembered the meltdown well because she had been there to see it. Marian and her friends, along with James and his friends, had decided to decorate the whole school when they were drunk and the whole school was dirty in the morning. Everyone's departure from the school was delayed until the whole place was cleaned. It was hilarious.
Only Lily's ex-friends and the rest of their group hated it.
Marian Raito, on the other hand, graduated as a prankster legend who had made Minerva McGonagall lose her mind completely. Everyone still talked about it at Hogwarts.
"Marian, why isn't Charlotta here?" James asked at the dinner table few moments later.
Lily remembered Marian's best friend Charlotta West so well. She had been a very fashionable girl who always had all the new fashion items before they were even released. She was a promoter for all the brands because of her family name and the fame that came along with it. She and Marian hadn't gotten along very well even if they were besties.
"Chari and I had a fallout few months ago", Marian said, her eyes flashing, "She dumped that guy she was with and then came over to me to tell me I'm not worth of her friendship anymore because I wasn't rich and famous enough. I told her to fuck off and we haven't talked since."
"Damn, Marian, that sucks", James said, surprised.
"It's fine, James", Marian shrugged. "I always knew our friendship won't last anyways. Besides, she's banging some American guy in San Francisco now so I really don't care."
"I can relate to your situation", Lily suddenly said, "I had a fallout over being a rich and famous popstar with my besties on Halloween last year."
"Wow, that's even shittier", Marian said. Then she grinned. "Let's be best friends and talk shit about our ex-besties!"
"Marian…" James shook his head and sighed.
"What?"
"You just want to get back at Chari for what she did."
"No, Jamie. I don't give two shits about that cunt. Honestly!"
"It's ok, James", Lily laughed and touched his arm. "I'd like to be friends with you, Marian", she told his cousin.
"See, James? She needs Shit Talk Therapy just as much as I do!"
After that exchange the dinner went on nicely. Lily was even given a tour at the mansion by James, and she really enjoyed every moment of it. James' house was even bigger from inside and it amazed Lily. He even revealed that he doesn't want to live in a massive mansion but a smaller house. Lily agreed with him – even if this mansion was absolutely beautiful, she wouldn't be able to live in a house like it.
After meeting James' parents, it was James' turn to visit Lily's family – well, more like just her mother because her sister wanted nothing to do with her and because her dad Robbie didn't have time to meet them because of his busy schedule. They met Lily's mother at lunch in a fancy restaurant in London. It was a very quick meeting and they were barely even able to talk properly because Mrs. Evans was on the phone all the time. She was a wedding coordinator and was taking care of Petunia's wedding planning so she had to answer the phone every time someone called her.
"That was the weirdest meet the parents thing ever", James said after Lily's mother suddenly just left to go somewhere without even saying goodbye.
"I agree", Lily said, confused at what had just happened.
"Oh well, let's enjoy this lunch as a couple then", James grinned.
"Yeah, I doubt my mom's coming back", Lily agreed and took a sip of her soda glass. "I'm gonna tell her to schedule some time for us though because I don't think she learned anything about you, James."
"Good idea. Let's do it when your awesome dad is home too", James said.
"You're such a fanboy", Lily teased him.
"Hush, Red, or I'm going to have to punish you…" he playfully said.
Lily chuckled. "I'm in danger."
Eventually the day Lily had been waiting for arrived. Her concert was to be held at Hogwarts Quidditch Pitch that evening. Everyone – or almost everybody – was excited about it. Students had been told about the concert about 2 days ago and everyone lost their minds. And now the day was finally here. Lily and her team had moved all the pieces of the stage to the arena during nights in the passing few weeks and it had been built there during nighttime and then hidden with spells so nobody realized it was there. Now there was no need to hide the stage anymore though and Lily was happy about it. The graduation was done the day before and Gryffindor won the Quidditch Cup and the House Cup which resulted in that Lily's house had a wild party in their common room afterwards – Lily couldn't participate, however, she was busy with the last rehearsal for the concert but she heard all the details from Lisa and Lynn the next morning.
The concert was scheduled to begin at sunset so it'd be dark enough for the special effects and the light shows to be seen properly and Lily was already excited as she always was when it came to performing. She absolutely loved that part of her career. Song writing was fun but performing on a stage was even more fun because she could hear the audience's reactions to them immediately. She just loved everything about being a singer and wouldn't give it up anytime soon.
So when the concert was about to begin, the students were all sitting in their seats at the arena where a mysterious looking black egg stood in the middle of it and everybody was looking at it excitedly. Soon, the egg came alive as a video began to play on the surface. Students were shown clips of Satine's past concerts and finally, the current era which included clips of the making ofs, music videos and the live performances that she had done earlier. As the clips ended, a flashing clockface appeared on the screen with a countdown from 10 to zero. Finally, when the countdown came to zero, the screen turned white and broke into pieces, which shocked the audience as the pieces began to fly, revealing a round shaped stage where a smiling red haired girl stood on a pedestal. Her dancers were on the lower parts of the stage as was Satine's band as well.
Satine White opened her mouth and began to sing the first song.
Put it down, down, down…
Put it down, down, down…
Put it down, down, down…
Put it down, down, down…
We used to dream about these feelings
Come on, stand up now
Put it down baby, put it down now
Till the moment we cried
(Put it down) If you know
(Put it down) If you're sure
(Put it down) If you say, "sorry"
(Put it down) I'm never giving you up so put it down
We can shine together underneath
Underneath my blue umbrella
Just the two of us in the rain
Just the two of us
(Put it down) Baby, put it down now
(Put it down) Come with me tonight
(Put it down) I'll show you the path
(Put it down) Let me show you the path
Put it down baby, put it down now
Till the moment we cried
We'll dance together
Underneath the stars
Till it's time to go
(Put it down) When you need me
(Put it down) When you love me
(Put it down) When you're my baby
(Put it down) When you don't give up on me
(Put it down) If you know
(Put it down) If you're sure
(Put it down) If you say, "sorry"
(Put it down) I'm never giving you up so put it down
(Put it down) Baby, put it down now
(Put it down) Come with me tonight
(Put it down) I'll show you the path
(Put it down) Let me show you the path
The audience cheered excitedly as the song ended – and the pedestal Lily had been standingobn came down – and the next one began to play right after. James recognized the song as "Mermaid Princess". It was one of those first songs he had heard from Satine White. Back then she was only beginning to gain momentum but James liked the angry rock song very much.
"You look beautifull today", he said
Girl looked at him smile on her lips
She was so immature, unable to realize the danger
They walked, hand in hand, to the ocean
"You're a mermaid princess
Just as beautiful as always
Would you let me love you?
I promise I'll never hurt you
Could you trust me?"
(Trust me...)
It was all about love
Then it became all about you
Love's a tiring, useless, vicious game
It's got nothing to do with you
"You were the mermaid princess
Just as beautiful as she was
Would you forgive me?
I promise I'll be a better man
Could you make me happy?"
(Make you happy...)
Mermaid princess fell back
Back to the dark
Mermaid princess felt so tired
Unable to rise from the sea (Never again)
She became a eternal fairytale
Unable to survive in the real world
(Mermaid princess) Torn into pieces
(Mermaid princess) Victim of violence
(Mermaid princess) Victim of fate
(Mermaid princess) Tired of the eternity
(Mermaid princess) Unable to wake up again...
Song ended and the audience clapped excitedly as Satine's next song began to play. James could feel how the excitement rose even higher – the song she was performing next was a very underrated fan favorite. It was also a rock song, but this one was a alternative version of the single, "Wish", which had been a dance single released during summer. James knew all about her Feel era because he had been more or less of a fan of her songs at the time.
I can't believe I'm actually dating the girl who wrote all these songs, he thought as his precious girlfriend began to sing the song.
Even when I keep walking down this street
And thinking about myself
Naturally I lock it all in
Hiding behind a mask of illusionary happiness
But then, why...?
I've lost every wish I once had
But then, why...?
I've been forced to make this decision
I'm just talking to myself in the mirror
I'm always hoping for stupid things
Only to find myself betrayed one more time
I don't want to tell you so stop asking those questions
I know what you must think of me
It was all about you, wasn't it?
This isn't the place I wanted to be
"I was born alone so I must live alone"
But then, why...?
All I ever asked for was love and care
But then, why...?
All I ever did was to pay for my own mistakes
I'm done hiding and came out
World around me is shattered into pieces
Even so, at the time, I kept wishing for good things
Even though I knew how useless it must be
Don't try to act as if I don't know everything already
Don't try to let me in if you only use me
I can make up my mind and fade away like a star someday
I'm just talking to myself in the mirror
I'm always hoping for stupid things
Only to find myself betrayed one more time
I don't want to tell you so stop asking those questions
James clapped with everybody again, but couldn't help but notice the pain in Lily's eyes when he looked at her on the big screen on top of the center stage. Was this song one of those that she had written about him? He knew this girl had had a huge crush on him for a very long time and she had told him that he was her muse. James promised himself he'd make her as happy as he possibly could right at that moment.
"I'm gonna marry this woman one day", James said, feeling that it was the right thing to do.
Satine – or Lily – kept singing a couple of more songs until it was the time for the break. Lily disappeared into a hole on the floor and her dancers took over the stage as a calming interlude track began to play on the background.
"Did I hear wrong or did you really say you're gonna marry the pop superstar, mate?" Sirius asked.
James nodded. "I honestly think she's the one."
"Go ahead, mate. She's more fun around than Julia who had no sense of humor."
Peter and Remus agreed with him by nodding.
The stage went dark again and soon Satine appeared in a big blue dress from below the stage on a floor elevator as the band began to play the next song which James recognized as "True Love". He recognized it because lots of girls were obsessed with the track when the single "waterlily" had been released. Both songs had been on the same single and he really couldn't escape it anywhere because people were so into both songs.
That thing shining in your eyes
I wonder what it is
You hold on it proudly, never letting go
It must be the love you feel for me
Always, always
You are my precious treasure
There's nothing else
Open your mouth and whisper
"You'll be a part of my life forever"
When I couldn't see you
You secretly looked after me curiously
You are my pride
That's all I can say
The day when we touched love
Was a fateful day
Never, never
Did I say I've grown up?
Did I say I wanted to lose you?
Didn't I agree to be a part of you?
Didn't you agree to be a part of me?
That day was the day when we found love
That I'm unable to forget
Even the goodbyes you said
Will be my bittersweet memories
Even the tears you cried
Will be my bittersweet memories
We found true love that day
I'll never say goodbyes to you, my dear
The day when we touched love
Was a fateful day
"Thank you", Lily said on the stage after the song ended – James noticed she was holding a napkin on the corner of her other eye. Song had really gotten to her. James promised to himself that he'd squeeze the girl real good after the concert had ended.
"When I wrote the next song that I'm gonna sing, I wrote it as a song that I can always sing to a lover. I strongly believe that when you really love someone, you will find them in the next life, too. It's called 'Part of Me', from my second album Feel. I dedicate this song to my muse. He knows who he is", Lily said and winked at the camera which in turn was shown on the big screens above the stage.
The audience got super excited when the said song began to play as James grinned. He certainly knew who she meant.
We've been separated for a while
Always, always, remember
We can see each other again
If we're born again
Is there a way to say,
"I wish to be by your side now"?
Why do sad people always
Seem so lonely?
I wish to be there with you
Because it's you whom I think about
Please, I'm always with you, see?
I don't wish to be separated
I don't wish to be weak either
But I think it's too much
When I fall in love so easily
We've been separated for a while
Always, always, remember
We can see each other again
If we're born again
Would you recognize me
If we met again in the next life?
Would you still be happy
And love me like today?
I don't wish to lose you
You are a part of me
I wish I had a place in your heart
I just can't forget
Never ever
I'll always remember you
So If I was born again
To someone else
I would still go on a journey
To find you again
She sang few other ballads after "Part of Me" in her beautiful dress – James couldn't take his eyes away from her because she looked like a princess to him – and the audience loved every second of it because Satine White was known for her magnificent love songs. Once the section ended, she disappeared through a floor elevator once again and her dancers took over the stage. This time the background music was catchier.
When the interlude ended, the next song began to play right after. Satine appeared from the floor elevator once again. She was smiling and waving her hands at everybody as she sang one of her fan favorites.
Let me do it for the truth
Let me do that for the truth
Let me fly higher into the bright future...
(To the future)
(To the future)
(To the future)
I don't want to lose again
I want freedom
I look around myself and all I see is you
Smiling, adoring me
This is a dream, right?
The moment I spread the truth I knew this was my place
I'll fly higher to the bright future, just like you!
We'll spread those wings on our back
And fly to the blue sky together!
At the time I thought everyone will hate me anyway
Seems that I was completely wrong
When the darkness disappears
Dazzling light appears
I smiled
Blue sky stays above you and me
I looked up there and saw the flying seagulls
I'd like to be a seagull and fly with you by my side
Now I know how to fly away
It's not because I loved that person
It was because you were who you were
And that's how I found a way to fly
Just like that
So...
I'll never forget that scenery which I saw once
A dazzling scenery filled with flower petals
I surely took off and flew into that blue sky above
While you had wings on your back, too...
Song ended and Satine waved at everybody, while the next song began. James noticed that the audience's excitement rose as they recognized the track as one of their favorites. James recognized the song too as it had been remixed many times and someone always played them at parties where he used to go to but he had no memory of ever hearing the song's original version. It was very catchy and made him think about summer at once.
In the glow of a summer morning
I follow the same path as yesterday
Believe me
It's time to celebrate tonight
And surely you'll be over there in five minutes
Everyone raise your hands to the air!
Everyone dances underneath the moonlight!
I want to know you care about me
I want to know you love me
I want to know how you glitter every day
I want to believe in you, dear
We can take a break whenever it's ok
And laugh at useless things
Right?
I believe in eternal love!
Everyone wants their share of your love!
I hope you'll be here
And that you'll stay here too
You're the one who comforts me
That's how you do it
That's how you glitter every day
I want to know you care about me
I want to know you love me
I want to know how you glitter every day
I want to believe in you, dear
I believe in you and your love!
My baby, this love is already gone
But I won't forget you
"Okay, let's sing the last chorus together", Lily said into her microphone. "When I sing the first line, I want you to sing the second line back to me, ok? Let's try it!"
I hope you'll be here
And the audience replied,
And that you'll stay here too
"Perfect, everybody, now let's do the whole chorus together like I taught you. 3,2,1…" Lily said, giving everyone a thumbs up as she spoke.
I hope you'll be here
And that you'll stay here too
You're the one who comforts me
That's how you do it
That's how you glitter every day
Satine repeated the chorus with the audience twice, and then she picked up a ball gun from one of the staff members and began shooting her signed balls into the audience. Balls included a surprise – usually bracelets – and once she had no balls left, she put the gun on the stage again and she bowed to everybody before the floor elevator took her below the stage once more as a red velvet curtain fell over the stage. The screens over the stage began to show a interlude video that was dedicated to her past tours.
"Is it encore time now?" James asked.
"Yeah, how come you gotta ask when you're the one shagging the popstar we're looking at?" Lisa asked.
"I don't go to concerts, Lisa. Especially Satine's", James defended himself.
"You will from now on. I saw how much you worshipped her in that big dress", Lynn giggled. "You two are just too adorable."
"Yeah, I definitely will go watch my princess from now on", James agreed.
"Hey, it continues!" Lisa excitedly said and pointed at the stage.
The red curtains had began to rise up again as a acoustic slow paced song was playing on the background. Satine White was on the stage wearing a simple t-shirt and jeans while she held her microphone.
"This is the last song of tonight", Lily said. "It's the last song on my new album Identity. Song is called 'Towards Tomorrow'. It's about being there for the people who are dear to you."
As she talked, she walked to the edge of the stage and waved to the audience as the edge of the stage began to move slowly round the stage, and then she began to sing.
Everyone was surprised
In the way you decided to let her go
No one knew it wasn't as happy as we thought
I've never seen anyone as sad as you that day
You know the beautiful sun will rise
Believe me, you will smile again
Let me lead you
Towards a better tomorrow
Even if you need a shoulder to cry on,
I'll be there for you
I can help you
I'll be there for you
Let's look up to the sky together
And become free together
Even if your tears fall
I'll lead you to a better tomorrow
Take my hand
You don't need to worry
Everything will be fine
You just need to believe
Take my hand
I'll guide you back on the right track
Even if those tears fall
I'll stand by your side
Remember,
Even if today is darker than yesterday
Even if you cry a bit more than yesterday
I'll guide you towards tomorrow, that bright future for us
You know the beautiful sun will rise
Believe me, you will smile again
Let me lead you
Towards a better tomorrow
Let's look up to the sky together
And become free together
Even if your tears fall
I'll lead you to a better tomorrow
"Thank you", Lily said as the song ended and her band and dancers joined her on the moving edge of the stage. They bowed three times all around the stage to show appreciation and gratitude for their effort to show up at the concert. The red velvet curtain came down over the stage as Lily flew a couple of kisses all around on the stage and the concert was officially finished.
Lily heard how the students cheered on the other side of the curtain as she made her way to the floor elevator to go below the stage from where she would go to her dressing room. She yawned as she walked on because was starting to feel tired because of the lack of proper sleep in recent days due to her secretive live rehearsals and such. All that was now hitting her at the same time and all she could think of was a bed where she'd sleep for hours – prefetably with James' warm body right next to her, of course.
"Hi, Red", said Lily's favorite voice in the whole world when she entered the dressing room.
Lily smiled to him and walked over to James who pulled her into a tight hug.
"Hi, Mr. Muse", she said into his shoulder. "Did you enjoy the show?"
"I loved it. I don't usually go to concerts but yours was magnificent", James said and squeezed her against him once more before letting her go.
"You should squeeze me like that more often, James, I loved that", Lily told him and grinned. "I'm glad you liked my show. I'd be sad if you hated it."
"Not a chance, Lily. I love you and what you're doing, you're absolutely remarkable. I'm glad that you agreed to be my girlfriend", James said.
"That's so sweet, James", Lily told him.
"Don't tell anyone about my sweet side", James said grinning.
"Your secret's safe with me", Lily giggled.
The next morning the students went home for the summer. In Lily's case it neant that she'd be touring all summer but she didn't mind it because James went along with her as he had promised to do. Lily had been surprised about his plans at first but at the same time she loved it because they could spend time together and plan their future together.
Lily Evans was finally happy.
So here it is, the last chapter of the story. I won't be writing anything else here nor am I gonna rewrite the whole story because I've written down everything about this concept now and I feel that it's completed now.
