Yes, its me. I am still alive. Wow I honestly feel terrible about how ive let this story just slide...

But heres a new chapter and its almost my summer holidays so hopefully i will be able to write HEAPS then :)

I just realised about how bad my writing was in the first couple of chapters (yeah its not the greatest now but still...) so I was thinking of maybe rewriting some of this stuff. What do you guys think?

Anyway, ill stop blabbing on and ENJOY :)

Meanwhile, over at the boys side…

The feeling of flying was amazing. The freedom it made you feel, that you were a bird, flying away from the world and its worries. It made you forget all your worries, all your doubts and just revel in the feeling of the wind streaming past your face, tussling up your hair and whipping around your clothes.

"Oi James! Come down here for a second!" I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard my father's voice shouting at me. Erghh…

I dived down and stopped right before I hit the ground, then slowly lowered myself down.

I stood up straight and stared at him. I wonder what he wants… He never disrupts me when I'm flying!

After a while, he still hadn't of said anything. … okay then.

"Hey dad… you er… wanted something?" He shook himself out of his trance.

"Oh never mind that now, is that REALLY the Lightning Bolt 3000?"

"Erm yeah?" I replied uncertainly.

"How on EARTH did you get one of them? People are always using them all the time up here, and as soon as one gets taken back it gets snatched up straight away!" He replied excitedly, the smile taking years off his face.

"Wait you're meant to return them…?"

"James, are you telling me that you have kept this since the first night you were here?"

"Maybe…" But I'm quite sure the look on my face was enough to show my guilt. He stood there silently for a moment his eyes roaming all over my face. I had a sudden sense of déjà vu as I waited to be told off. But then…

"Oh who cares! Come on james, let your old man have a turn on that thing" And with that he snatched the broom out of my hand and took off.

And people always thought he was the strict one out of my parents.

Lily's POV

I started to run, trying to find James and his father. I could hear Mrs Potter behind me, struggling to keep up.

"There they are!" I whipped my head around to see where she was pointing. I followed her finger and found myself looking at 2 specks in the distance, one in the air while the other was running beneath that speck, like they were having a race.

"CHARLUS POTTER!" Mrs Potter screamed. The look in her eyes and her tone made me wonder how James was still as disobedient as he was. If I had a mother shout at me like that whenever I stepped over the line I would have learnt a long time ago never to do it again.

The two specks in the distance suddenly stopped moving and they just froze. I felt myself smirking. Once again the women have struck fear in their hearts.

James POV

"CHARLUS POTTER!" I heard my mum shriek and I froze, unable to move. I took a quick glance up at my father, riding on the broom above me. He too, was frozen. I started to slowly sneak away, figuring that my mum was only annoyed at my dad.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you, look whos next to your mum". He whispered at me, trying not to move.

I strained my eyes trying to see who was there. As soon as I saw the mane of red hair flowing freely in the breeze I realised what my dad was talking about.

Shit.

The slight movement behind be alerted me to my dad's presence. He placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder.

As my mum and Lily got closer, the scarier looking they got. If it wasn't for my dad's hand on my shoulder I sure would have bolted by now.

Okay James, cool calm and collected facial expression ACTIVATED. My facial muscles then attempted to follow my thoughts but they didn't quite make it the whole way and I felt my face morph into a grimace.

Soon enough they arrived and blessed us with their lovely presence.

Lily's POV

It was rather funny seeing James's face. I could easily see through his erm… grimace to how scared he was. I didn't even wait for Mrs Potter to tell off her husband for whatever he did wrong, I just ran full speed at James. He put up his hands to cover his face and before I knew what I was doing I had batted them away and started kissing him full out.

Not just like a little peck. This was a full on make out session.

This wasn't exactly what I was planning when I ran at him but oh well.

He froze under my lips but soon enough he had wrapped his hands around my waist, lifting me up and twirling me around.

He put my down and gave me a questioning glance down at me. All I could do was shake my head and half-heartedly take a swing at his arm.

"Oh James, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have said those things and they were rude and I didn't mean them and please forgive me?" I quickly babbled out. I saw a smirk appear on his face.

Oh no…

"Hmm… well this is a tough one isn't it? I really should have you grovelling at my feet for forgiveness. I mean you were rather rude weren't you? Hmmm…" He trailed off winking at me.

Git.

All I could do was roll my eyes at him and reply with this:

"Oh come on James, you and I both know perfectly well that if I walk away now it'll be you who will be grovelling at my feet asking me to stay. And anyway, I think you ought to apologize as well."

"Well if you insist my Lily Pily." He then got down on both knees and cried out. "Oh PLEASE forgive me! My most beautiful queen, please find some mercy in your heart to forgive me and allow me back into your life. You are my light in the dark, my peanut butter to my jelly, my snitch to my quidditch, my treacle to my tart, my…" I cut him off before he really got into it.

Like last time…

Shaking myself out of my thoughts I silenced him with look. He shut up immediately.

"Oh come you insufferably, arrogant, big headed toe rag" I said fondly as I pulled him up. He wrapped one arm around my waist and we walked off towards the cliff, to once again watch our child.

"You know James, for a second back there I thought you were Sirius. You know with all your grovelling and other things…"

"Hmm?" I waited a moment to let my words sink in on him.

3, 2, 1…

"OI I DO NOT HAVE FLEAS!" He shouted indignantly. I patted him on the arm in a consoling manner.

"Ah don't worry, I know the perfect doggy treatment that will get rid of them" I carried on cheerily.

"What? Wait! No! I. DO. NOT. HAVE. FLEAS!" He moaned back at me.

"Whatever you say James," I nodded at him with a, hopefully, sympathetic look on my face and continued to drag him towards the cliffs.

Ah revenge is sweet.

Charlus Potter POV

Oh no you don't James! Get back here! Don't leave me here!

As my wife was watching our son and his wife walk away towards the cliffs I saw my perfect escape opportunity. I slowly edged away before

"Not so fast Charlus". I cringed and turned to face her.

"Aww look at them! They're perfect for each other don't you think?" I cooed hoping to distract her. By the look on her face I did not think it was working.

"Well what did James think of the story you were meant to tell him? She started off sweetly enough.

Shoot, she's onto me.

"Well um… you see…" I trailed off uncertainly. She stood them, hip poised, tapping her toe.

"I'm waiting." The look on her face was so scary I just felt compelled to tell her the truth.

"I'm sorry! He was there with the broom and oh you know how much I love brooms and flying and quidditch and I couldn't help myself and I forgot all about it but see it worked out okay and we had some good father/son bonding time and that's good isn't it and oh look wasn't last night's dinner just fabulous and…" I just babbled on and on not even knowing what my mouth was spouting out.

"Hmph" Was all she said and she stalked off.

Oh damn.

When she was a couple of metres away she turned around and gestured me to follow.

"Come on! Why are you lagging behind like that? We have work to do." One thing about her is that she can never remain annoyed for too long, no matter how hard she tries.

Yay happy endings all around :) So as you may have been able to tell I was experimenting around with James's parents personalities so sorry if they have mood swings etc.
