I don't own Harry Potter Characters and anything related to it. They are the property of J.K. Rowling, and are not my intellectual property. Only the story is mine. But don't we all have similar ideas? There is no financial gain made from this. For entertainment purposes only.
Now that's out of the way, Let's get on with the story.
Home Sweet Home. I'm finally home. I guess now is the time to redecorate my room. Looking around, the whole house is covered in Gryffindor colours. There's gold and red everywhere. It's truly a Gryffindor house. I should have my own place to call my own.
"MUM! Can i please change my sheets?"
"And why would you want to change your sheets? You haven't even slept in it once. It's still clean."
"But there's too many red and gold everywhere. I feel out of place. Like a fish out of water. I'm not even asking for much, just please, pretty please with a cherry on top, please change my sheets to a different colour. And by different colour, i mean green and silver. I have to feel like i belong somewhere. If i'm being surrounded by red and gold i won't feel comfortable. Think about it, how will i be able to feel at home in Hogwarts. If i'm not comfortable at home."
"Fine. We'll go shopping and get you some things in Slytherin colour. How did you even manage to get into Slytherin. What were you thinking when they sorted you?"
"Dad"
"Why are you finding your dad? I already told you we can go and buy some Slytherin looking stuff for you."
"No. I was thinking about dad when i got sorted."
"Just what kind of bad things were you thinking of that the sorting hat feels it need to send you to Slytherin?" What? Bad things?
"Mum! Not all Slytherin are bad. Why do you think i was send there cause i was thinking about bad things. There's some goodness is Slytherins too, you know. We have resources and we are loyal" I stomped to my room soon afterwards. How dare she think i want to do bad thing to my dad. He's my dad for goodness sake. And besides, not all Slytherins are bad. There's some good Slytherin. Like? Severus Snape. Ok. He did all those things cause he was in love. But still he did sacrifice himself so i can be here. He was the headmaster for awhile. He was Slytherin.
"Albus, you ok? I heard you had a fight with mum."
"It wasn't a fight. Mum was being judgemental. Not all Slytherins are bad."
"Yup. Not all Slytherins are bad. My brother Albus is the perfect example. Mum went through a difficult time at school because of slytherins. I'm not saying the Slytherins back then were bad. But they were at war, Albus. We only know the Gryffindor side of the story. We don't know what Slytherins went through. We don't know their story. You are the bridge that we all need. The bridge that will show us everything have different sides."
"I guess that make sense. I shouldn't be too hard on her. But that doesn't mean i will let it slide. She did kind of insult my house. And houses are like family. You don't expect to insult my family and get away with it. "
"Thank you for James, it's nice to see you act all brotherly for your brothers. Instead of bullying him around. I know now it will be fine for Lily to be at Hogwarts, she got two brothers to look out for her from two different houses. At least you boys won't be like my brothers, interfering with everything i do. And blab to your Grandma.. " I think i got my Slytheriness from my mum. She always pops out of nowhere.
"Hey! Don't expect this big brother James to always be around. Free Spirited James will always win in the end. Before you say goodbye to big brother James. He has one last thing to say. I'm only gonna turn up when thing gets bad. So you can just rely on Big Brother Albus for Lily. Now, Goodbye. Hello Everyone. I'm Free Spirited James. I heard from big brother James that we going shopping today. So Come On. Let's go!"
"Haha. what are we going to do with James?"
"He's nice. At school, I met a lot of big brother James,instead of free Spirited James. I still see Free Spirited James. But just from far. When he's nearby, he's always big brother James." Remembering the day after the sorting when he came up to me and said nothing is going to change. Everything will be just fine. It will be the same when Lily can finally come to Hogwarts with us.
"Hey Albus. Don't go around telling people that. I have a reputation to uphold." Haha. That is my brother, James Sirius Potter. A troublemaker yet trustworthy, James Sirius Potter.
