Harry Potter - Series Fan Fiction ❯ The Very secret Diaries of James Potter ❯ Chapter 1 ( Chapter 1 )
[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Author's Note: I decided, since I was doing Snape's diary, I should probably do one for James. See how he's feeling through all this.
Disclaimer: I'm only going to say this once. I do not own Harry Potter or any of its characters. If I did, think of what I would do to those poor people.
Summary: Sister story to The Very Secret Diaries of Severus Snape. Lily just broke up with James and he's not sure what to do. He finds Snape's journal and discovers that Snape has feelings for him. Lily tells James that she wants him back, but James isn't sure anymore. What will James choose? Will he put all his past issues with Snape to the side, or will he go back to the girl who so coldly rejected him. Set in the 7th year of Hogwarts.

Finally back at Hogwarts. It feels wonderful to be back in Gryffindor tower again. I love it. The smell of the dusty old classrooms. The corridors and rooms only me and the guys know about. The scowl on Lily's face just when I'm about to do something she doesn't agree with. That surprised look McGonagall always gets whenever something wild happens (caused by me and Sirius, of course). I've missed it all over the holiday.
As always, the train ride was interesting. Spent most of the time planning what we were going to do on our next midnight outing with Padfoot, Moony, and Wormtail. It's our first one of the year, so it needs to be good.
The rest of the time was spent with Lily walking up and down the isles, catching up with each other since we didn't talk much over the holiday. She was in Italy with her family the whole time and didn't get to write very often because of that paranoid sister of hers.
We passed Snivellus twice. I couldn't really do anything because, of course, Lily was there. My arm brushed against his the second time and he froze for a second. He seemed to come back to his senses quickly enough, but I wonder why he stopped. I think he's got serious problems.

Still haven't' gotten our schedules yet, which is slightly odd. Not a lot of people are complaining, though. Gives everybody a little more time off and get used to being back. I can't wait till classes start. It's my last year at Hogwarts. I plan on making it one to remember.
Haven't seen too much of Lily since the train ride. Something feels kind of off for some reason. Like something happened over the summer. The few times I have seen her, she's been... standoffish (I guess that would be the word). She's been almost cold, frigid even.
I don't know. Maybe I'm just reading too much into this. I'm sure she's fine...

We started classes today. I've got Potions, DADA, Transfiguration, Charms, Herbology, Care of Magical Creatures, and Divination. Divination is the most useless class I have. What's hilarious is that Trelawney says I have a remarkable gift and I should apparently look into a career involving the sight. Yeah... I'm not doing that.
Snivellus is in most of my classes. That will definitely make my year a little better. I'll have somebody to pick on when I'm bored.
Lily's in my Transfiguration, Charms, and Herbology classes. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing at the moment. Things have been very awkward lately. I'm starting to get really worried about her. She doesn't really talk to me like she did last year. Normally that wouldn't bother me, but considering the circumstances. Blimey... She'd better be okay.

What is wrong with Lily? She's been so hot and cold lately. One minute she's practically biting my head off and the next she's all lovey dovey. I don't know what's going on.
Take today for example. We were in the library doing our Transfiguration homework (We have to write a 4ft paper. I think it has something to do with shrews, but don't' quote me on that). We started arguing over something ridiculously stupid, I can't even remember what it was. After a while I got fed up and went to go look for a different book. No t even two minutes later, she came behind me, all teary eyed. I asked her what was wrong, but she didn't answer me. She just said she was sorry for being so bitchy lately. I started saying something, but before I could finish, she started making out with me (although I'm not complaining).
What is going on with her?
