After we got safely back to the entrance of our common room we lifted the cloak up.

"What are you two doing out of bed so late?" The fat lady picture asked us.

"We were working on homework." Lily replied.

"I didnt know you two were friends." She said smiling at us.

"Well, we just officially met, now we are!" I told her.

"You too would make such an adorable couple one day." The fat lady laughed.

I blushed heavily and looked at Lily, she looked pretty embarrased too, a good sign, I think.

"Snitch." I said and the fat lady reluctantly swung open.

"Sorry about that." Lily said when we stepped in the common room.

"Sorry about what?" I asked, "You didnt do anything."

"Well, I dont know!" She answered giggling.

"Thank you so much for helping me with my charms homework tonight." I said.

"Oh, it was fun, maybe we can, you know, hang out again sometime." She suggested.

"Yeah! Of course, I had an awesome time, maybe tomorrow we can eat breakfast together and we can officially introduce our friends to each other." I told her.

"You want to eat breakfast with me?"

"Dont sound so suprised Lils, well goodnight."

"Goodnight James, thanks for doing your homework with me."

I sat up in bed shaking and sweating heavily. I looked around, I was in the boy's dormitories, on my left, Sirius was sleeping laughing loudly at something in his dreams, on my right, Remus was snoring softly, next to Remus, Peter was snoring loudly and mumbling something about a flying pig.

I jumped out of bed and took a cold shower in attemps of feeling better, all I had on my mind was that dream. What could it mean?

I went back into the dormitories and looked at the clock. Only 2:30 AM, nobody will be up yet.

I got out a peace of parchment and a quill and ink. I walked over to my desk and started to write to my father, he has to know about this, he is the minister of magic.

Dear Dad,

Early this morning I woke up after having the scarriest nightmare I ever had. I couldnt go back to sleep after that so I thought I would tell you about it. I guess I'll just start at the beginning.

I was walking through what I assumed to be a muggle town. People everywhere were talking and laughing and shouting. All of a sudden I heard a loud cry from somewhere on the street. I walked towards the cry. It led me to a ditch on the side of the road. There laying on the ground was a little baby boy. I picked him up and noticed a lightening bolt shaped scar on his forehead. I looked up and saw a very pleasent looking house, the door was open. I figured the baby might belong in this house so I walked towards it. I tapped on the open door lightly but nobody answered so I just walked in. I looked to my left and there on the floor was a dead man who looked like an older version of me. This made my heart jump. I decided not to look at him but walk up the stairs. There was a hall way with a bunch of closed doors but only one was open. I went to the open one and found on the floor an older version of Lily, this girl I have liked for awhile, and we worked on our homework together today. She was dead also.

I shuddered and left the house still carrying the baby who had now stopped crying. He looked exactly like me but had Lily's green eyes. I figured he must be our like future son or something. After I got back on the road I looked back at the house. It had a dark skull hanging over it. I'm not sure if this dream would come true but it must be a sign of some evil wizard. The street had gone completly quiet. I looked over to my right and saw a man wearing a dark cloak. Three more men just like him were following close behind.

"I thought I had killed you Potter." The voice rang out, "Let me try again, Avada Kedevra."

The curse hit me strait in the chest, I screamed in agony and that is when I woke up. What does this mean Dad? Help me, I'm scared for my future.

I miss you, and cannot wait for the next time I see you.

With all my love,

James

I looked at the clock again. It was 3:00 AM. I might as well go mail this now, Dad's probably up already working.

I grabbed my invisibility cloak and headed to the owelry. When I came back to the common room I took my cloak off and saw I wasnt alone.

"James!" Lily said. "You scared me!"

"Lily, what are you doing up?" I asked, suprised.

"I should be asking you the same question." She replied.

"Alright, well, I wanted to get the rest of my homework done and I did." I lied.

"Why did you wake up so early to do it?"

"Well after I uh fell asleep, I drempt about Proffesor Turnup (Herbology) and she was yelling at me for not doing my homework yet so I uh woke up and did it!" I lied again.

"Oh." Lily laughed.

"Now, what are you doing up?"

"Oh, I always get up early, I love waking up to start the day earlier, I cant stand when people say there day is too short, they should just wake up earlier so they can enjoy it more!" Lily told me.

I laughed.

"So do you want to get some early breakfast?" I asked her.

"How, the great hall isnt open to students yet?" She asked.

"Well I've found a new way to get food, whenever I want to, come on I'll show you." I grabbed her hand and threw my cloak over us once again and walked out of the common room.
