( this is not an official sequel to my last oneshot)

James' brain was going a 100 miles an hour and he didn't how to stop it.

He was waiting at the alter, a pleasant smile on his face while his mates all giggled and chuckled behind him. He looked back at Sirius to see him smiling and grinning like an idiot.

Idiot.

He looked forward again and at Lily's bridesmaids. Dorcas, Alice, Mary and Marlene all holding beautiful little bouquets. Then there was him.

Severus was standing uncomfortably at the back, the last minute addition to their wedding party.

19 and still slightly awkward, he looked around the venue with fidgety hands.

He looked....amazing. If James would even allow himself to think that but he did.

He was in a dark grey suit to match the bridesmaid's dark grey satin dresses and he had a magenta flower in his pocket.

His shirt was black, slightly open and revealing his collarbones on one side. Hair slicked back to look messy but neat, if that made sense.

It was out of his face but a few loose strands had already began to stray against the gel and fall onto his forehead.

He was looking anywhere but the groom and other members, talking to only Marlene but it was just a few words at best.

James was nervous. Really nervous. But that's normal right? Heart palpitations, dizziness, headache. Wedding jitters, nothing he can't handle.

Once he saw Lily walking down that aisle he'll be ok. He'll calm down.

As soon as he thought that the doors to the chapel opened and the guests all stood up. The music started to play, the string quartet starting their beautiful tune.

Lily's dress was gorgeous. A mermaid cut with sheer lace sleeves and deep v cut. She had a skirt like train that was detachable from the actual dress and her veil was to the ground.

Really really beautiful.

So.....why didn't james tear up?

Why was he just staring at her blankly with a fake smile as she walked down the white carpet?

Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. I messed up.

The thought played on repeat until he realized Lily was almost on the steps leading up to the raised podium.

James gulped and held out a shaky hand for Lily to take.

" you look handsome." She said with a sweet smile and James tried his best to not break.

" you look beautiful darling." He forced out and Lily gushed over it quietly.

He hoped nobody was noticing his mini freak out.

I fucked up big time. For the love of god why don't i feel anything? Is it normal to have doubts even now-?

" Dearly beloved..." the priest began and interrupted his train of thought.

Shit. Too late.

" we are gathered here today to witness the union between James Potter and Lily Evans." He said and gestured to the two.

He continued with his speech and Lily's eyes dulled at every word. James was freaking out, he could barely breathe.

I dont want to marry her. Im too young, this is too quick.

He cursed internally when he realized the horrible things he was realizing.

Why now. Why last minute? Fuck
