Chapter Thirty-Four: So Many Goals Left

James sat in the sixth year boys room next to Tyler. The piece of him that had been missing for the past few weeks was now back and things were starting to feel better again. After he and Mya had come back into the castle, Harper had taken Mya off in the direction of the Gryffindor tower, but after the girls look a right turn he knew they were headed for the hideout that he and Mya had found and created their third year. Mya had trusted Harper to know the secrete, along with Lily and Dominique. Albus and Tyler were the only other guys that knew about the hideout. At first it was just his and Mya's hideout, but these past few years they had been letting the ones they truly trust see the hideout.

Seeing the girls disappear into the hideout, James and Tyler decided that they weren't going to follow them, instead they decided to head off to their room. All the other boys their year were off somewhere else, so James and Tyler had the room completely to themselves.

"I can't believe you found her." Tyler commented pulling a box of Bertie Beans out from underneath his pillow

"I know her better than anyone else man. It's actually thanks to you though Tyler. You're the one that said she would want her mother. That's why I went to the graveyard."

"I did didn't I? Hey do you think Professor Longbottom will give me extra credit for helping find his daughter? I mean the year is almost over and my mum will kill me if I fail Herbology. Apparently that was her best class. Dad was more of a Charms fellow." Tyler sighed. "I think I take more after dad then mum."

James left out a laugh. "Well my parents were both good at Defense Against the Dark Arts, so I guess that's where I get my gift of it. Although I think I'm more of my Grandma Lily. I love potions."

"Because Professor Slughorn loves you, because you're Harry Potter's boy." Tyler pointed out rolling his eyes

"Oh don't be like that Tyler. It's not your fault you blew up a cauldron the first day of second year." James smirked

"Oh shut up James. That was your fault too. I only got in trouble, because it was my cauldron." Tyler muttered under his breath

"Can you believe we're going to be leaving this place soon Tyler?" James asked getting up and starting to pace around the room "We sent six years here. One more and then it's all going to be over."

"Not necessarily." Tyler pointed out "You could always come back and teach. I'm sure the school would hire you in a heartbeat."

James laughed. "I doubt it. Another look at my school records and McGonagall would probably pass out. I don't think the school would hire me with my detention count. Doesn't matter if I'm the son of Harry Potter or not. I'm in the top seven detentions."

"Well what are you planning on doing after next year? Mum and dad made me look at several things. I almost want to move to Germany though or at least visit for awhile. I have relatives there you know. Maybe I'll get a job at the Ministry." Tyler ranted flopping back on his bed

"I'm thinking about doing something with potions. It's not the job part of my future I'm worried about though." James commented with a tone that made Tyler look down at him from his stare at the ceiling

"What do you mean by that? Are you talking about Mya?"

"Yes I'm talking about Mya." James snapped. Once the words came out of his mouth he frowned wishing he could take it back. "I'm sorry Tyler, I'm still stressed from everything that happened today. I kind of took a few steps forward not that long ago."

Tyler was sitting up straight now and his eyes were large. "What did you do?"

"Don't tell anyone I told you this, especially Lily. She has a big mouth for a twelve year old." James stated smiling a little

"I promise I wont tell anyone. This doesn't sound very good though James. What did you do?" Tyler asked again

"I proposed to Mya."

"You WHAT?" Tyler gasped

"I proposed to Mya." James said in the same exact tone as he did before. He was expecting Tyler to be surprised.

"I can't believe I'm sitting across from James Potter. The boy who swore he was never going to fall in love or get married. Now look at you." Tyler teased

"Trust me, Mya's quite convincing." James laughed as well

"What did she say? What did you even say?" Tyler asked

"Well I told her I wanted to marry her. She said she'll marry me, but once we're out of Hogwarts. I didn't really plan it through. I know I want to be with Mya and marry her and that's the only thing that made me do what I did." James commented shrugging his shoulders

"You're crazy you know that James." Tyler laughed

"Love does crazy things to you. Maybe you and Harper will have that. I think she really likes you." James smirked

"Oh shut it James. Don't go getting in my relationship. Your's is confusing enough. Harper and I are together for now, but who knows if we're going to get married or not. I don't even know if I want to get married yet. I love Harper, or at least I think I do, but I'm in no hurry to get married. Don't get me wrong though James, I'm extremely happy for you and Mya and I hope that I get to be your best man." Tyler hinted smiling

"I was actually thinking I would ask Teddy, since he had me be his best man and all….I'm kidding Tyler. I wouldn't want anyone else to be by my side. Maybe Al, but I could always have him be my groomsmen." James' eyes suddenly widened "I don't want to think about that now though Tyler. I've got awhile still."

"I said this before, but I'm going to say it again; you're crazy man." Tyler said

"Hey we got a lot of things left to do, I'm just setting my goals out and knowing all of my options." James smiled

"There's so many goals left for us to finish. Do you think we'll ever get them done?" Tyler asked shoving his hand back into the box of jellybeans

"Eventually we'll get them done. Although I think our goals have changed since we've grown up. I know mine have." James pointed out

"I've noticed Mr. Engaged." Tyler laughed

"Tyler I was serious when I said not to tell anyone. I don't want our families to find out. Mya and I are keeping the engagement on the down low. I'm sure she told Harper and you're the only one I'm telling." James said looking his best friend dead in the eye

"I said I wouldn't tell anyone you have to trust me James." Tyler smirked

"That smirk doesn't reassure me Tyler." James said smiling as he grabbed a handful of jellybeans out of Tyler's box

Well here's this chapter. Sorry it took so long, I haven't had any internet connection lately. This is the boy's conversations about what they want. I love Tyler as much of a idiot he is, and he is an idiot. Well I'm going to skip another year and have their graduation. I don't think Hogwarts really has a graduation, but I'm going to make them have a graduation. Anyways review and tell me what you guys think.
