-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter Six
A Dark, Deep Secret
Starts Comes To the Light
“I’ve got some of the best gossip!” said a random woman at the Leaky Cauldron.
“Oh and what’s that?” Asked another woman.
“Princess Lillian is getting married.” the first woman answered “I heard that it was that nice young Mr. Alexander Lupin.”
“She’s marring her best friend?” the second woman asked looking at the first woman with disbelief written on her face. “I thought she was going to marry that other young man. . . .oh what’s was his name again?”
“Maxwell Smith, a Wizard from the United States. I believe.” the first woman said. This was what the Witches and Wizards where talking about when Jane Weasley walked through Diagon Alley on the Monday after Lily and Alex got engaged that past Saturday. Jane smiled to herself as she walked the crowed street to get to ‘Weasley’s Wizarding Wheezes’ to use their Floo.
“Ah, Jane!” Fred said as she walked into the less crowed joke shop.
“Oh hi Uncle Fred.” Jane said walking over to him.
“What are you doing in Diagon Alley today?” her other twin Uncle asked walking over to where she and Fred stood.
“I just had to run over to Gringotts and get something for Lily. She would have come as well but you know how it is out there.” Jane said motioning to the street outside. “Any way. I was wondering if I could use your Floo to get home.”
“Yeah use the one in the office.” George answered nodding his head understanding why Lily didn’t want to show up in Diagon Alley after getting engaged. “And tell Lily we said hi will ya.”
“We should be over after we close up for the night.” Fred added as he lead Jane to the back office.
“Thank you Uncle Fred, Uncle George. I’ll say hi to the rest of the family for you.” Jane said as she threw Floo powder into the fire place “Potter Castle”

“Oh thank you Jane you’re a life savor.” Lily said as she meet Jane in the entrance hall at ‘Potter Castle’.
“I hope this is what you wanted from Gringotts.” Jane said holding up a medium sized box in her hands.
“Yes it is thank you, thank you thank you!” Lily said hugging her favorite cousin.
“Your welcome. Oh and you wouldn’t believe the gossip going around the Alley today.” Jane said as they walked into the living room. “They all know your marring Alex but also think you should be marring Maxwell.”
“Yeah I know.” Lily said “But the only person that is going to publish that announcement is Aunt Luna. Not even Aunt Penny is going to publish it, but she understands why.”
“So I get to the interview right?” Jane asked.
“That’s up to Aunt Luna and you know it.” Lily said with a soft laugh at how Jane wanted to do the announcement for the Quibbler. Jane laughed along with her.
“So are you going to tell me what’s in that box you asked me to get.” Jane asked changing the subject to why she had to go to Gringotts to get it.
“I guess you’ll find out anyway. You know that there is a saying in the Muggle world for when a bride is getting married that she needs something old, something new, something barrowed, something blue.” Lily said.
“Yeah mom’s told me about that. Isn’t it a poem though?” Jane asked.
“Yes it is. Anyway, this is my great-great Aunt Mila’s Goblin gold terra. All the Weasley women have worn it at their weddings and it has brought them good luck.” Lily answered
“So this is something old or something barrowed?” Jane asked.
“This would qualify as both but just in case it’s something old. I’m going to barrow mom’s golden bracelet for the wedding.” Lily answered. “What to see it?”
“Yes.” Jane said, as Lily set the box down on he coffee table in front of them. Lily opened it and sitting on a purple pillow in the middle of the box sat a golden terra. It had diamonds and emeralds in bedded into it. “Oh Lily, it’s beautiful.”
“What’s beautiful?” asked a voice from behind them Lily closed the box as she and Jane stood up and turned to the voice.
“Nothing!” they said at the same time. As they saw that it was Harry asking the question.
“Come now.” Harry said with a smile know that the two of them where up to something. “You got your second great Aunt’s terra didn’t you?”
“How’d you know?” Lily asked.
“Because your mother told me Jane was going to get it for you.” Harry said with a sly smile.
“Well. . . .How’d did mom know?” Lily asked.
“You can’t hide anything from your mother Lily. You should already know this.” Harry said. “Anyway, the head Goblin flooed and asked if it was alright for Jane to take the terra out of the safe.”
“So that’s why it took so long.” Jane said. She had waited for almost an hour for the Goblin that was helping her to get to the vault and get the terra out of it.
“They knew you where family but it’s procedure for them to floo if you don’t have a note signed by either me or Ginny.” Harry said.
“I’ll keep that in mind for later. Thanks dad.” Lily said.
“Your welcome. And don’t let Alex see that terra before the wedding other wise it will bring bad luck.” Harry added as he left the two girls standing in the living room. Then they both broke into laughter.
