Let's Make Dreams Come True -- TBD

I smiled, " You have an inability to lie to me....I like being able to tell when you're up to something.." I said pointedly. It would ruin surprises in the future. But maybe he could work on constantly smiling when he was up to something. It was odd he looked to me for a reaction to quite a few things. It was adorable. " Your face when your up to something is adorable."

I had just shrugged her remark off that day. And now, it was time for her big concert. I wondered how nervous she was... I mean, I was excited for her. We had gotten the parents to come -- including Mrs. Lupin who wanted to be here, too. Some other family members to other students were allowed... just sort of a big gathering. Some students left to go home, others stayed. I liked the idea of having the option... so hopefully most of the naysayers would have gone home. I knew it was unlikely, but one coudl hope. I had a plan in place for anyone who would ruin this night for Elena.

I went backstage and found her. I gave her a big kiss and grinned at her. "Everything is nearly in place," I told her.

I smiled as I clutched my guitar close. I was in my concert clothes, my aquamarine dress and my hair thrown in an updo. With sparkled earrings and the necklace George gave me, with my silver heels. " I am super excited and super nervous. I smiled, " I am glad to hear it....Oh, here's my song list. " I handed it to him to give to the lighting. " Thank you so much for this...." I said giving him a kiss. I got a five minute warning, I turned to him and smiled, " Here I go.." I walked towards back stage. I took a deep breath as Professor Dumbledore introduced me.

I knew George was out there. I was happy to hear it. " I walked over to the microphone as I got applause. " Uh, Thanks everyone." I said fidgeting with my guitar. " So, uh..we're done exams. How awesome is that?" I asked waiting for a shouting from the students who were still here. I looked around the crowd that had formed. " So I have a few different genres for you....I'll get into the first song here...a little bit of an intro is this is for people close to my heart. They have showed me everything and inspire me everyday...this is a song for them... " I said as I turned my guitar over and started strumming on it as I got the other effects like drumming being handled.

I looked over at my parents and smiled, hoping they knew it was for them and this is the first time I sang in front of them.

This romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up

It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you I give up

Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

Now your pictures that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
When you say your prayers try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time

Yeah, I will love you baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always

If you told me to cry for you
I could
If you told me to die for you
I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you

Well, there ain't no luck
In these loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams
And our old lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines

And I will love you, baby - Always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

I finished the song, and couldn't stop smiling. " Thank you." I said as I looked over to my mum and dad.

I cheered and clapped for my little sister, still not believing that was her up there. She was all grown up. And I was so happy that George did this for her. I mean... I guess it woudl make it hard for me to give him a hard time anymore. Especially since I knew what he was planning on doing... he had asked my permission, too. Which I thought was hilarious.

I wasn't sure who was more nervous, Lenni or me. She had to sing in front of everyone... and I was going to pour m yheart and soul out to her and prayed that she'd say yes. I really hoped that it would just make this night even better for her and not dampen it if she didn't say yes or wasn't ready. I clapped and hollered for her with everyone one else. That was my girl up there living her dream. Even if it woudl be just one night... I was able to give that to her.

I looked around the room, " Thanks guys....well, the next song is called " In these Arms." I love this song as I seem to be unable to get it out of my head and it holds something close to me. You should know who you are." I said as I let the drums lead me in. " I have a little surprise for some people...I made a slideshow for while I sing this..." I said pulling out my wand and making the screen come down. It was photos of the Marauders and mum and aunt lily and chloe. Then leading photos into the kids and everyone that knows them and loves them. " Just something I put together."

I started to play and move my leg to the beat. " You all mean a lot to me.." I said as I started to sing..

You want commitment
Take a look into these eyes
They burn with a fire, just for you now
Until the end of time
I would do anything
Id beg, I'd steal, I'd die
To have you in these arms tonight
Baby I want you like the roses
Want the rain
You know I need you
Like a poet needs the pain
I would give anything
My blood my love my life

If you were in these arms tonight
Id hold you
Id need you
Id get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
Id love you
Id please you
Id tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you till the end of time
If you were in these arms tonights

We stared at the sun
And we made a promise
A promise this world would never blind us
These are my words
Our words were our songs
Our songs are our prayers
These prayers keep me strong
Its what I believe
If you were in these arms tonight

If you were in these arms tonight
Id hold you
Id need you
Id get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
Id love you
Id please you
Id tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you till the end of time
If you were in these arms tonights

Your clothes are still scatteder
All over our room
This old place still smells like
Your cheap perfume
Everything here reminds me of you
And there's nothing that i
Wouldnt do to be in your arms

And these were our words
They keep me strong
Id hold you
Id need you
Id get down on my knees for you
And make everything alright
If you were in these arms
Id love you
Id please you
Id tell you that I'd never leave you
And love you till the end of time
If you were in these arms tonight

I couldn't believe that George had done this for Elena! This was fantastic. I looked around and saw that everyone was so happy... and having a good time.

I clapped along with the large group that had come to see our little girl who wasn't so little anymore pouring her heart out. Hearing she had a surprise for us, I waited to see it. I saw pictures of us going up there and I grinned, she is truly my daughter. I put an arm around Ember, " This is the first time I have heard her actually sing."

"Really? I've heard her in her room a couple of times... but it sounded nothing like this... I'm so proud of her," I said, smiling up towards our daughter. I couldn't believe this... I was so happy for her. I hugged Sirius and added, "She gets this from me, you know."

I finished and looked around, this was fantastic. I couldn't believe George organized this all for me. I felt the tears in my eyes. I laughed a little at the end of that. I made sure there were a lot of photos of Uncle James and Aunt Lily in it.

" Okay, well how many girls here have been hurt by a guy who didn't care about her?" I asked, This song I wrote for Olivia. She had spoken with me about Will, who didn't know she liked him. He dates other girls. I don't know what to do for her other than tell her make the move. " I think she needs to talk to him....just so she knows. "

You know the bed feels warmer
Sleeping here alone
You know I dream in color
And do the things I want

You think you've got the best of me
Think you've had enough the last laugh
Bet you think that everything good is gone
Think you left me broken down
Think that I'd come running back
Baby, you don't know me, 'cause you're dead wrong


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes you fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over 'cause you're gone


What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
You heard that I was starting over with someone new
They told you I was moving on, over you
You didn't think that I'd come back
I'd come back swinging
You tried to break me, but you see

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes you fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over 'cause you're gone

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone

Thanks to you I got a new thing started
Thanks to you I'm not the broken-hearted
Thanks to you I'm finally thinking 'bout me
You know in the end the day you left is just my beginning
In the end

I laughed, " This is for all the self confident women and men in the room that may need some help in that department..." I said, I lightly strummed as the drum started.

Every day is so wonderful
Then suddenly it's hard to breathe
Now and then I get insecure
From all the pain, I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Tryin' hard to fill the emptiness, the piece is gone
Left the puzzle undone, ain't that the way it is?

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

No matter what we do
(No matter what we do)
No matter what we say
(No matter what we say)
We're the song inside a tune
Full of beautiful mistakes

And everywhere we go
(Everywhere we go)
The sun will always shine
(Sun will always shine)
But tomorrow we might wake on the other side

'Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down, oh no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring us down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today
Don't you bring me down today

I finished and looked around as I found my family, it was a lot for the Lupin's Remus and Will in particular as well. Even for the Weasley's everyone now and then needed help. I felt this song had a huge connection for people if they liked it.

I looked at Dean. "Aren't you proud of your sister?" I asked him, clapping with everyone. Glad that anyone who would cause ascene had just decided to go home instead of stay the extra day to see Elena.

I shrugged. "I mean, I guess I am," I teased, figuring that would entitle me to a playful punch.

I nudged him on the shoulder. "Oh you know you are and dont' deny it," I said, givin ghim a kiss. "It's nice to see that you are proud of her. Makes you a little more cute."

I thanked everyone, " Well, this is a bit of empowerment I suppose we could call it..." I laughed at the reaction. I loved this song it was an intimate moment type of song.

I love to love you baby
I love to love you baby.

I'm feelin' sexy
I wanna hear you say my name boy

I added dances, along with it. I know my dad wouldn't be to happy about it. My confidence was just through the roof.
