~2 1/2 years later~

I woke up the next morning to the sound of little tiny feet padding down the hallway. I sat up and stretched. Darcy appeared in the doorway of me and Harry's bedroom shortly after. When she saw I was up, she came running towards the bed. When she reached it, she jumped up on it and landed on top of me. I made a soft grunt.

"Mommy!" she said, while still on top of me.

"Hi sweetheart, what are you up to?" I asked my beautiful daughter.

"Nothin', just saying hi." she said nonchalantly.

"Okay." I said with a giggle. By then Harry was up and he was looking at us and smiling. Darcy noticed and jumped on him too.

"Daddy!" she said to him.

"Morning my little star." he said to her pinching her cheek. She giggled. Then she got up off the bed and ran back down the hallway. I smiled as I saw her disappear through the hallway. I looked over at Harry with his mass of curls all over the place. I laughed at the sight of him, although this is what he looks like every morning, so I should be used to it.

"Morning beautiful." he said in his sexy morning voice.

'Morning." I said looking into his sparkling green eyes. He rolled over closer to me and wrapped his arms tightly around me. He pulled my body closer to him so that we couldn't be any closer. Then he pressed his lips to mine, as they moved in sync, my hands tangled in his curls. I let out a slight moan when Harry bit my lip lightly. He laughed into the kiss. For some reason, this kiss reminded me of our marriage. All the thoughts and memories started swarming into my mind. Not that I had forgotten them, but this kiss triggered something that I can't explain.

*Flashback*

I looked myself up and down in the full body mirror. A look of disbelief was on my face. Kiera came up behind me in her beautiful bridesmaid dress. It was a navy blue, silky dress that reached just above her knees, with a sweetheart neckline, and a single shoulder strap. She was my Maid of Honor, but also a bridesmaid.

"You look so amazingly beautiful, it's not even funny." she said seriously as she stared at me in the mirror.

"Thanks Kiera, so do you." I replied.

"Thanks, but today is your day, so put on that award-winning smile and go out there and get married!" she said passionately. I smiled at her in the mirror, and then turned around to give her a hug.

'Thank you." I whispered.

"For what?" she asked.

"Just for everything. For being my best friend all of these years, for always being there for me when I need you to be, for always having the right thing to say, and just for being you." I said hugging her tight. Tears were threatening to escape, but I tried not to let them, because of my make-up.

"Oh, Lily. You have no idea how much that means to me to hear that. I'm glad I have that impression on you. Just know that I am always here for you, no matter what. We will always be just like this." she said showing me her fingers crossed.

"Good." I said. Kiera looked at my face and saw my eyes watering.

"No, no, no. No crying on your wedding day! Dry those tears or else you're gonna ruin your make-up!" Kiera exclaimed.

"Okay, sorry." I said wiping under my eyes.

"The wedding is starting soon, so I have to go to my spot." Kiera said hastily.

"Oh my gosh, okay." I said breathily.

"Your gonna be okay. I'll be right there next to you. Now come on, get yourself together, take deep breaths, and tell yourself that you can do it." Kiera told me.
