AHHHHHH! So I can't believe it's taken me this long to get the sequel up! The original has been out since like June! So, if you were waiting for the sequel to come out, I apologize for making you wait. My excuse: I've been so busy, and I moved up to the high-school (YAY!). But it has taken some gettin' used to. I'm set now though, and I've been trying to write more now! Anyways this is the first sequel to 'Wasted Time'. If you haven't read it yet… DO IT NOW! You will be completely lost if you don't. Well not completely, but it's nice to know why she is 'Remembering the Days'. Oh Well. If you have read the first one READ ON AUDIENCE! ENJOY!
Oh, I don't own anything except for the plot and all that jazz. Credit to the amazing J.K. Rowling.
After the confrontation with Teddy, I stayed in my room. I really only left to eat or wash up. Everyone understood that I didn't want to see anyone at all. I didn't want to worry that Teddy might have told someone about what happened on Christmas.
Instead I thought about some memories I had. There weren't too many memories I was fond of, being as I blocked everyone out for years. I did have some happy memories though. Those memories I cherished with all my heart. Sometimes they cheered me up. Even some of the memories with Teddy made me cheerful.
Sometimes replaying memories in my head made me regret hiding from my family and friends. I knew they meant well, but it was easier this way. I did my thing and everyone else did theirs. It worked. Everyone gave up trying to reach out to me eventually. I would have too. One could only put up with a sullen unresponsive teenager for so long. So I guess the first memory I'll share is my brother.
James. He was my oldest brother. Despite him being four years older than me, I had always been closer to him than Albus. James had always been the one that played with me and things of that kind. I had always been lucky to have the big brother bond with him. James took care of me, always. Even at Hogwarts when I was horrid to everyone, he always looked after me. When everyone else stopped attempting to care, James always cared. I couldn't thank him enough for that.
Even now, James still tried. He would offer to take me to ice-cream or attempt to get me to play Quidditch with him. Sometimes he came into my room and talked at me, just to tell me what he had been up to. I never answered him, but sometimes I would lock eyes so he knew I was paying attention. I never told James, but those "conversations" mean everything to me. It was my link into the 'real world'.
I felt bad for ignoring James. I truly did. Now thinking about it, I could've had such a great relationship with him, and I wasted so much time. James was nineteen now, almost twenty. We didn't both go to Hogwarts now, and I only saw him on holidays. He was out in the grown-up world, but he told me he was enjoying every minute of it. He and my cousin Fred recently opened up a Quidditch supply shop in Hogsmeade. It was quite popular, actually.
I remember once James took me to a muggle playground. I had never been to one before, and I remember I was so excited. I must have been about six at the time. We walked from the house to the park that wasn't all that far from home. Upon arriving, I dragged James straight to the swings. He pushed, and I giggled at the excitement. We went down the slides, across the monkey bars, and spun on the merry-go-round. That was my favorite part. Everyone says I fell asleep the second I set foot back in the house.
There was also this nightly tradition that he would come into my room every night. He would tell me a quick story, and then he would kiss my forehead goodnight. I missed that terribly when he left for Hogwarts. He continued during holidays, and even in my first year at Hogwarts, he would kiss my forehead before retiring to his dormitory. He stopped after I completely went into solitude. I missed it sometimes. It was one of the moments that brought us together. What surprised me most, was that on the first night home for Christmas holiday, he came into my room. He told me all about his work, and right as he left, he kissed my forehead. "I miss you Lilikins," he whispered to me.
