Summer was approaching, meaning the sun was out for longer and further into the evenings, meaning it would be a bit warmer, the flowers had bloomed, and everything just had a brighter touch to it all. Students could go out to Hogsmeade weekend without being completely freezing even when wrapped up in several layers.

Lily honestly preferred these months, it was calmer, more free and peaceful with the warmth of the sun, the freshly blooming flowers and the butterflies that she’d see around the back of hogwarts.

It was some point in late May, coming up to June, up to Summer. People had been talking about the summer holidays that’d be starting in July, what they’d do during the holidays and how they’d spend it, talking about writing letters to one another. Lily already knew she’d be writing a lot of letters to her friends.

Lily was out at the back of Hogwarts, not too far from the forbidden forest, as she was walking around with Pandora, she didn’t know when, but at some point they’d ended up holding hands. “Write to me this Summer?” Lily spoke, the words coming out her mouth before she could process them herself.
