A perfect day

In a way, it was the best day of James Potter's life.

It had started on a good note when he came down stairs to see his mum and dad sitting at the kitchen table. James had started to worry when they didn't show up yesterday night, like they always did on the day he returned to Hogwarts. Charlus had smiled at his son and gave him a hug. While Dorea got him a cup of tea, pushed it in his hand and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

On the way to the train station James noticed it was a remarkably lovely day, the sun was out and the autumn air was pleasant on his skin.

They arrived at the station ten to eleven, perfect timing, and walked through the barrier with out a hitch. Sirius came over and informed them that Peter was out somewhere looking for Remus and that they claimed the carriage thy liked in the back of the train.

Dorea didn't cry when he left, a very good sign and his father gave him a pat on the back like he did when James was a kid.

The journey was very short with no hiccups at all and as soon as James walked in de Greathall he had the felling something had to go wrong. The feast was delicious like always and they even had sticky toffy pudding, his favourite.

As James and his friends walked up the stairs to the common room, they passed Lily who looked at James and gave him a small smile. James grinned looked at the redhead knowing that this year would be different.

When James' head hit the pillow he couldn't help but smile, because Lily Evans smiled at him and that was a whole feat on its own. At that moment he decided that that day, was the best day of his life not knowing that there were even better ons to come.
