James was sat in the Gryffindor common room, staring hard at the letter, his hands trembling as he choked back tears and Sirius was stood by the mantelpiece, staring determinedly into the fire. Remus was sat next to Rose, James' sister on the sofa and had a comforting arm around her.
'All I want to know,' James said in a soft, quiet voice and with a glance in Sirius' direction 'is why,'
'No one knows James,' Remus said comfortingly, 'that's half the problem,'
'He'll pay,' Sirius growled
'Sirius, don't do anything stupid,' Remus warned
'I wouldn't call exactly what I want to do, stupid, Remus,' Sirius replied, not taking his eyes of the crackling embers of the fire.
'Please, Sirius,' Rose sobbed 'there's no point, if he killed my-'
'Rose, don't say it,' James warned her, shaking his head vigorously
'If he killed my parents, then he would sure as hell kill you,' she added, with a note of panic in her voice, then lifting herself from the sofa and towards Sirius she added 'I don't want to loose anyone else I love,' and she broke down on Sirius' shoulder that comforted her warmly.
It had obviously moved him as he put a loving arm around her; he smiled down at her as she cuddled in his warm embrace. James looked longingly at his best friend and sister, he wished Lily were here.
'I think we should get to bed, James,' Remus added 'Lily won't be back for a good few hours, I can assure you, she had to go to collect something from her family in London.'
'At this time of night?' Rose sniffed, looking at Remus curiously.
'It was important,' Remus sighed, then with a look towards the clock 'I have to go to bed; I have an exam in the morning. I wish you goodnight, and I'm sorry to the both of you,' he added calmly to Rose and James as he trundled up the stairs to the dorm room.
When James finally did manage to drag himself to bed some time later, well after Sirius, he had been waiting up for Lily but she never showed up and he was left quite miserable. The most terrible thing in his life had happened to him that night, and the girl he liked, possibly even loved, was at the other end of the country. James fell to sleep rather effortlessly, but his sleep was not dreamless, quite the opposite in fact.
First James dreamt a large snake was chasing him and then the scene flickered to a hall, which was painted with blood, and the funny thing was, it was silver. It flickered again and he imagined that Lily was insisting he give her every chocolate frog card in his room, otherwise she would run off to Voldermort and tell him everything. James woke up with a start, his last image, and an image of Lily working for Voldermort, not Dumbledore or anyone else, Voldermort. The same Voldermort who had so ruthlessly murdered his parents that evening…his Lily.
It was a dream it had to be. James didn't get back to sleep after that, he looked at his clock and seeing that it read 3 am, he sighed frustrated as he heard Sirius snores fade into the night. James looked at the canopy of his bed, he hoped to hope that that dream was just a dream and that would be the way it stayed. Though what had disturbed him most was that Lily had been standing over his parent's grave with Voldermort at the time.
'It was a dream,' he reassured himself 'it was,'
