Dear James,




You proposed to Lily.


She said yes.


You've only been dating for a year, but you're both happier than I've ever seen you.


You're going to get married.


I called it, didn't I?


And yet, I can't get my head wrapped around it. It just doesn't feel real.


Not everyone deserves happily-ever-afters, do they?


But you will, and that's what matters. I'll be at your wedding, as a bridesmaid, watching you vow to spend the rest of your life with Lily Evans, the girl that you love, and I'll smile through the pain. Because you deserve it.


I'd never ruin that for you.




Love,

Ophelia
