The Sacrifices of War

((OOC: Another in-between chapter and untold story in The Price of War by @sirussly. The previous story The Worries of War.))


An evening in Godric’s Hollow, Lily has had enough of only seeing the inside of their house. She grabbed her wand and a sweater in the intent to step outside for 5 minutes and see the sky for once.

She shouted back into the house at her husband and his best friend who were, of course, worrying about her leaving the house and the baby in their hands.

Remus sits down on the stairs leading up to the house. Dimly lit by the single street light.

Silence spread between them and the only sound for a while is Remus’ soft crying.

Lily: “I’ve been keeping an eye on him when he thinks we’re not looking- “

Lily: “I mean you look like-…”

Lily: “But…”

He leaves and disappears in the shadows down the street.

The End

The Worries of War

((OOC: So this thread was thought as an inbetween part in The Price of War by @sirussly. I have linked the “next part” at the end so you can continue on the story.))


One evening in Godric’s Hollow, Lily roams thought the house to find her friend, since she didn’t show up for dinner. She stops outside an open door to a dimly lit room.

She enters the room and sits down beside her best friend.

Lily: “You have no idea how horrible it is to stay here, every night and see you all just… leave…”

image
image

Lily: “- instead of building it up inside that pretty head of yours.“

Silence spread between them while they both stare into the semi darkness.
