James tried to get up, but his head swirled madly.

"Lily, take Harry and go!" James shouted, "I can hold him back! Go!"
br
There was a blinding flash and James fell.
End of flashback

He was just cursed by Voldermont, he knew that he will die within a minute, but all he could think about was Lily. Lily, his wife, his best friend, his everything, he had to leave her! As James's body started to give in, all there was in his mind was the days when Lily and him were together.

Flashback
br
James Henry Potter, the son of Amy Claudia Clark and Henry Richard Potter, wasn't a average boy. In fact, he was a special boy, he was a wizard. Both Mrs and Mr Potter had been wizards and witches themselves. James received his letter allowing him to go to Hogwarts. James, whom had practiced magic at home, was excited.

(At the station, September 01)
br
"Goodbye." James shouted to his parents as he waved.
br
He step on to the train and sat down on the nearest seat. James felt lonely being alone. After 5 minutes, he heard the compartment door side open. He looked up and saw the prettiest girl in the world. She had emerald green eyes, shiny red hair up to her shoulders, and a beautiful smile.
br
"Sorry, is this compartment taken?" The girl asked as she pointed at the seats.
br
" No it isn't." James said.
br
" I've been looking for a seat, but they all seem to full."
br
" Really, good thing I came to the station early." James said exactly when the train moved, "by the way, I am James Potter."
br
" I'm Lily Evans." The girl said as she held up a hand which James shook.
br
" Do you know any magic?"
br
" I don't, but I really glad I could come." Lily said.
br
All the way along the little muggle town and the farms, the train speeded away, Lily and James talked. At noon, they meet up with a few people. Sirius, a funny dark haired boy, whom was very interested in doing pranks. Peter, a quite blond haired boy, he was short and chubby. Remus, a friendly blond haired boy, with forget me not blue eyes. Anne, a light brown hair girl, whom was very nice and talented in all areas. All along the trip, they laughed and joked, but James realized how happy he was. At one point, he had though that he wasn't going to belong.

( Inside the castle, waiting to go and get sorted)
br
Lily tremble frantically, James comforted her, by telling her that she would most likely be in Griffindor. James told her jokes about witch and wizards, making Lily giggle and tremble at the same time, but soon she had forgotten about the sorting ceremony.
br
" Okay, listen up, you will all follow me into the Great Hall." Said an middle aged witch.
br
All of the first years enter the hall and follow the witch to a stool with a hat. After a long wait, it was James turn. He slowly sat down on the stool as Lily gave him a thumbs up which he returned with hearty smile. The hat was lowered to his head and it began to speak.
br
" You have a good mind, very brave and bold! said the hat, " Fearless and cheerful, where to put you? I know...Griffindor!"
br
James ran over to the Griffindor table, as Lily was being sorted.
br
She nervosly sat down on the stool and looked up at the hat.
br
" Where should I put you, Lily, I think you'll do good in Griffindor! The hat sang, " then Griffindor it is!"
br
Lily looked so much more relieved when she sat down next to James.
br
" I didn't care where the hat putted me, just as long as it was with you, I will be fine!" Lily said.
br
James smiled, but didn't say anything, he was too happy to say anything that made sense. He knew from that day on that he will one day marry Lily.
