Hello quick Authors Note, despite James being portrayed by Tom Milligan by J.K Rowling, I have decided I imagine him more like his grandfather (James Potter I)
In the flashbacks when they bully Severus, however you can imagine him however you please. This is just my perception, purely down to his mischievous, and arrogant ways. In a good way!
Alannah's mind attempted to push away thoughts of last night, as she showered. The thoughts thankfully, evaporating from her mind. Once she'd freshened up, she'd joined Rose for breakfast.
She noticed Albus and Scorpius sitting munching earnestly, and waved both waved enthusiastically. "Who are you waving at?" Rose mused as Alannah slid next to her.
"Oh their just some friends I made." She admitted taking a small bite out of her piece of toast. Rose nodded content despite the piquancy swivelling around on her face. They both ate in a comfortable silence, until, cheering and hollers filled the hall.
Glancing up she noticed a group of boys smirking as they clamoured across the hall, she frowned, "Who's that?" She questioned leaning slightly closer to Rose.
She blushed, "That's James he's my cousin." She confessed. Her eyebrows shot up surprised, well, she wasn't expecting that! That's for sure. She inspected him, he had a thin face, lips a strong jawline. He wore round black glasses, that instead of resulting in a dorky appearance, markedly, resulted in a more attractive appearance.
"How are you related, if you'd don't mind me asking?" She probed, lowering her gaze back to Rose.
She shrugged nonchalantly, "His mother and my father are siblings." She explained, once swallowing her eggs. Alannah nodded, there weren't any distinctive features between James and Rose, she noticed as he paused and smiled genuinely at Rose.
"Are you two close?" She pressed.
Rose shook her head, "No I'm more closer to his brother, Albus. Or at least was." She mumbled doleful. Alannah frowned, she wondered if Albus could be the same Albus Potter she was hanging out with?
She shook her head, she highly doubted that! They were complete dissimilar, not just in appearance however Albus didn't seem as bold as James who confidently strode to the front of the table. Smirking as he began chatting with another student of Gryffindor.
Leah Barned -of course, began drooling over him lustfully, "Isn't he handsome?!" She gawked as Alannah wrinkled her nose.
"Seriously, he's fifteen." Alannah dead panned. Then resonated mentally, she didn't know he was fifteen? Was he even fifteen? He looked fifteen?
Leah began shooting her daggers, sending her a long dirty look. "And who are you?" She hissed seething "I will be his girlfriend! Nobody rejects Leah Barnes!" She warned threateningly.
"I'm just saying, he's a little old? Don't you think?" She mused shrugging, taking a small bite out of her apple.
Leah's eyebrows shot up livid, they seemed as if they were reaching for the capacious ceiling.
Pressing her lips into a thin line, Alannah watched cautiously as Leah sauntered her way over to the front of the Gryffindor table. Stopping in front of James.
"Um- maybe I shouldn't have said that." She grimaced, while Rose bent on the edge of her seat; interested, amused and disgusted. It was her cousin after all!
They seemed to verbally interact and suddenly her face flushed antagonised. Suddenly her loud screaming, brimmed the hall, and everyone winced. It mainly consisted on gibberish before she stormed back to the table, stopping at her seat her eyes sweeping across Alannah and Rose as she let out an aggravated growl.
Alannah licked her lips unfazed, as she shared a look with Rose. Both girls falling into unmaintainable giggles.
~0~
"Did you see her face? She was absolutely furious!" Rose grinned. Alannah wasn't aware of Leah's terrorisation to Rose, but she figured it was the reason why Rose was so jovial at Leah's rejection.
"But seriously? He's fifteen. That's all that bothers me." Alannah muttered shaking her head. They were both going to hang out somewhere out the castle, it sometimes got a little too crowded, surprisingly. Slipping out of the Gryffinfor common room.
Just as they escaped the door, they fell into a warm figure. Alannah pulled back, and stretched her head to noticed Hagrid smiling. "Hello Rose, little Lana." He greeted patting their heads. Alannah frowned, how did she know who Hagrid was? As Rose thought the exact same thing.
"Where were you two of two?" quizzed.
Rose waited for Alannah to answer, Alannah waited for Rose to answer. Before, they both answered simultaneously, "Out."
He chuckled softly, "Off you go then." He ushered, stepping aside. Both girls nodded in thanks before strolling away.
"How do you know Hagrid?" Both girls shot simultaneously, again and giggled.
"You first." She behest, twitching a finger in Roses way.
Rose rolled her eyes, "He's a family friend." She answered.
Alannah nodded slowly, he was a family friend of Albus too! She noted mentally, nodding slowly. "I actually met him a few days ago. When I was hanging out." She admitted. Roses furrowed her brows.
Pausing she turned to face Alannah "With who?"
Alannah gently chewed her bottom lip as she replied in hesitation. "Well you know that boy, Scorpius from Defence against the dark arts?" She probed warily.
Upon hearing the ceased steps of Rose, Alannah spun around to face her. A crabbed visage settling on her freckled face. "Scorpius. Scorpius Malfoy?"
Alannah nodded in confirmation. Why was it to bad? He hadn't been rude and neither had she heard anything rude about him? But then again she hadn't been here for long neither did she keep up to date with the latest school gossip, she had Leah Barnes to thank for that! (Note sarcasm) Weather she wanted Leah's blathering or not; which she most definitely did not, however under circumstances like this a little insight was convenient.
"What?" Alannah investigated, crossing her arms across her chest a sudden force of wind, prompted her to shiver. Tucking her glossy, dusky tresses behind her ears. Impertinently, inspecting Roses insignificant shift.
She immediately snapped out of her trance, "Who else with?" She beckoned, coiling her arms around her small frame.
"Albus. Albus Potter."
What ya think?
