Chapter Eight
Mystery Behind
A Deep Dark Secret

Lily sat on the balcony of her Royal Suite room at a very private Hotel resort in Hawaii. She watched the sky change color’s as the sun rose over the horizon over the deep, dark blue ocean. She listened as the waves crashed into the shore below her. The sun rise was a sight to behold. As she watched the color's change from black to deep blue to purple, to a deep red and so on. She was happy, very happy. She had been Mrs. Lillian Molly Lupin, Crowned Princess of the Wizarding Race, for a little over a week now. She took a deep breath as she thought back to the speeches made that the wedding reception. James had given his first, as he had been the Best Man.

“Where do I begin? As Best Man I’m suppose to give a speech. I’m really not one to give speeches, but I’ll try any way, just to make my sister Lily happy.” James had started at that time everyone had laughed at the small joke. “Really though. Lily and Alex are the best people in the world. They both care very much about everyone around them. If I had to have my sister marry someone in this world, I couldn’t choice anyone better than Alex. He has always been there for her in ways that no one else can understand or try to. He knows Lily better than I think anyone here does. And the same goes to Lily.” He stopped and looked at them with a smile of knowing. “But there are times when Lily does get angry and no one but dad and Alex can get her to calm down. But that really dependences on where she’s at, at the time she angry. Oh don’t give me that look Lily.” James said as Lily glared at him. “You know it’s true. Anyway I’m happy you both have each other. So I pose a toast to the Newly Weds.” He said as he raised his glass of wine. “May your lives be healthy. May your day’s be filled with love. May your marriage be a blessing from above. And may your love for each other live on in the great beyond. To Alex and Lily!” and everyone had cheered and drank from their glasses.

Lily smiled at her eldest brother’s speech it was short kind of, but not to long. She love James very much. And she couldn’t think of anyone better to have as a Best Man. The second speech of the night was from Jane. Their best friend of eighteen years. The one that probably knew them better than the rest of the family did.

“As the Maid of Honor, I’m also have to give a speech. Alex, Lily, and I have been best friends for the past eighteen years. The best eighteen years of my life if I may say so. From day one I could tell that there was more than just being best friends between Alex and Lily, but I never fully understood what was happening between them until we got old enough to understand what love truly meant. I saw the longing looks between the two of them and I also saw the love they had for each other. You could say that I knew they where one day going to end up here. But I never let on to that I knew their secret that they loved each other.” Everyone laughed at this. “No, I may have sat back and watched them both from a distance. But I did have a helping hand in them staying together as friends first lovers second. Of course it wasn’t until last Christmas that they finally got their acts together and told each other how they truly felt. Which I am very happy that they did, other wise we wouldn’t be here today, now would we?” once again everyone laughed. “Alex, Lily, you both are my best friends. And I approve of your marriage even if most unknown people would not. Some actually think that I would be mad and upset because of this but I guess they don’t know me very well. Not like you two do at least. But enough of this mushy fussy stuff. We’re here to celebrate the two of you. And as your best friend and Maid of Honor, I saw I told you so. For I was the very first one to see this day come. And I’m proud to say I am more than happy about it. So congrats, and the best of luck in your marriage, and As James has said may your love for each other live on in the great beyond, To Alex and Lily!” as with James’s speech everyone cheered and drank from their glasses.

Yes, Jane did know them better than the rest of the world did. She knew everything that went on between Alex and Lily. Jane had been the quite, observant one of their little ‘Golden Trio’ group. She had never given anything away unless it was appsolutly the right time to give something away. She kept their secrets of each other under lock and key. Yes, Jane was defiantly the one Alex and Lily could trust the most out of everyone they knew. Lily took a sep of her morning tea and smiled. Alex and her would be returning to England today. But they wouldn’t be going alone. They had chosen Hawaii for a very good reason. Not like what most newly weds would have. There where two reason’s why they where here. One was of course for their Honeymoon. The second was to bring home the one thing that they had hidden for the past three years. They would be sharing it with the rest of their family and friends as soon as they portkey into ‘Potter Castle’. But Lily also knew once they got home there would be a whole lot of questions that would need to be answered and she hoped to Merlin, himself, that everyone would take the news of the secret as well as their parents, Jane, Dumbledore, McGonagall, Pomfrey, and Lily’s grandparents did. But no one really knew how everyone else would react to that kind of news, not until they told the truth that is.
