Chapter Three: Flying lessons and Realizations

Today is a very exciting day for me. James is finally teaching me how to fly! I never really caught on how to do it in first year. I couldn't even get of the ground. I really want to learn because it is about the only area I still don't know about.

We walk out to the quiddicth field. James is letting me borrow his broom that he keeps saying is so much better than the school brooms.

"Ok Lily, try to mount the broom." James said to me. I tried but that is about all you can say for it. James just laughed at me and helped me get into the right stance.

"James," I said my voice waived, "I'm scared what if I fall." James looked at me and my stupid stomach had to of course flip flop. He finally answered by saying, "I'll come up with you."

We mounted the broom, I was in the front because I was to steer the broom. With James's arm around my waist I rose in the air.

The feeling can never be described by words. The feeling of all my worries and responsibilities drifting away, a feeling I will forever associate with James. It felt like there was nothing wrong with the world, no darkness suffocating the land, no denying one's right of life because of blood.

I turned James and there in the place where all pain and angst of life was gone I finally thought what I had known all along. I love him; I love the feeling he makes in me. How can I feel so... fantastic when the ground and reality are only few feet from me? I never want to come down and never face the truth. Up here I have all I need.

This is my favorite chapter. I hope you love it as much as me please R/R!
