James Potter
“MOM, HAVE YOU SEEN MINE LION STUFFED ANIMAL” Peter yelled down the stairs at his mother. “Yes, Peter it’s in your closet, second shelf”. As peter yelled a quick thank you at his mother amazing memory, he went into the closet to find his favorite stuffed animal. Just as his mother's said, his lion was on the second shelf. As he tried to reach for it, he heard someone enter his room.
“Peter, have you seen my wand it gone missing”. His sister, while in her final year at Hogwarts, still had a knack for losing her wand at the worst times. “No sorry Pipe I haven’t” he yelled from his closet. “Are you sure you haven’t seen it” she asked as she entered his closet, and when she saw him struggling to get his coveted lion stuffed animal. She walked over and took it down and handed it to him, while he responded with a “I said no pipe, that means no”.
“His sister gave him one of her looks that was almost always reserved for their mother and father when talking about muggles. “Well, if you see it, make sure to tell me”. Her tone suggests that if she didn’t find it soon that his head might as well be the next thing to go missing. Peter just nods and cuddles his stuffed lion, as if the poor thing could give him any kind of strength. As he walks out of his closet, he feels as if he’s leaving something behind, but he can’t imagine what. Both of his trunks were already full for Hogwarts and his suitcases were closed.
“ So why did he have this over welling feeling that he was missing something. Oh well tomorrow he’ll be off on a new adventure. One that he hoped would lead him to new
friendships and new possibilities. As he looks in his mirror on his closet door, he tries not to cry. Who was he kidding, no one would want to be friends with him. His thick
stomach, legs, thighs, and face made him look like he ate too many chocolate frogs. People would probably make fun of him, but at this point he was used to it. Or at least he
“What, potter can’t you see its almost night and you should be in bed”. “Oh, get off my back Pettigrew I was just coming by to say goodnight”. Said James Potter the only boy peter ever might have considered his “friend”. But then the only time James came around was when he needed help with a prank or something that in the end got them both in trouble with either his parents or James’s (Or worse both). “I have an idea and I need help” said James as he walks up to peter’s window, and that when peter got a good look at him. He is a thin kid with hazel eyes and untidy black hair that is stuck up at the back. Peter sometimes must resist the urge to grab some of his dad’s hair gel and put it on the back of the poor kids’ hair.
“No, I can’t help with whatever your planning, my mother said that if I don’t get at least 8 hours sleep, she’ll kill me”. “Oh, come Pete your being over dramatic, besides if she were going to kill you, she does it when its dark, and as you can see”-he was pointing to the sun very low but still up-“It is not dark yet, so at least let me tell you want I’ve got planned’
“Peter knew the moment he said yes, he would be involved in something so bad and awful but fun. That if he were to say anything but yes, he would sit up all night and think about what James was going to tell him. “Fine, what do need help with” Peter said with as much implied sarcasm he could muster. “Well, I was just thinking- is that a stuffed lion”. “NO” peter all but shouted and dropped the lion and kicked in underneath his bed. Well, that was embarrassing, the one kid who ever talked to peter now knew that he slept with a stuffed lion. How wonderful his luck was. James looked at him like he was trying not to laugh but kept it under control. “Well,” he continued “I think it would be grand if you and I went back to the MR. Lindon house and scared him with some of these he pulled out something that look like mini bombs
“No” Peter said instantly, Mr. Lindon was one of the oldest wizards on the block and while Peter had never spoken to him. He had the feeling that he was a terrible cross old man. But also, extremely powerful wizard “Come it will be fun, mate beside how he’ll will ever know it us” Peter knew that was a lie and horrible one at that, James probably only wanted to do this, so he could sneak in and see his Mr. Lindon reaction. Never let if be said that James Potter wasn’t a drama lover. But has peter though more, would the old frat know that it was them, he was so old, that it could truly work.
“ "Why don’t you go ask that girl you’re always around”. Said Peter trying to get away out of this. “Marlene left for Hogwarts early,”. Said James with a look that Peter had never seen before, and form that one look peter got all he needed to know.
1. James Potter was sad
2. James Potter wanted to do a prank because that made him happy
3. but couldn’t with a secondhand man
4. That secondhand man was usually Marlene
5. But with her gone, James came to the next person he knew
6. That person was Peter
7. If Peter didn’t help, James might tell everyone at Hogwarts that Peter slept with a stuffed lion, and they how would he get any friends (but that was just a personally worry on his part)
“Ok fine, I’ll help” said peter, he knew he going to get in so much trouble for this. “Great ok well then come on then” And has peter went to put on his shoes and sweater. That feeling of missing something was suddenly gone. Maybe however was watching over peter had the best intentions for him and his future. And maybe that future started with this is a thin kid with hazel eyes and untidy black hair that is stuck up at the back.
