Ok so I probalby set some stuff straight.

Thoughts look like this : What can I do? So-in-so thought
Whispers look like this: 'Dude, it's okay chill' So-in-so whispered. Or if it's the past and all of it's in italics anyway it's just the opposite. The whisper will be in normal font.
Oh and since even I got lost some reading it on here I'm adding the ruler to seperate the two time periodes. I hope that helps you guys understand it better.

Chapter three

Oddness

James didn't quite get what was going on but he knew he was in Hogwarts and, that whoever Harry was, was a lot like himself. The night before he'd went through the trunk and he found a few Quidditch books and a broken mirror, and an old photo album. He hadn't had a chance to look through it but he planed to do it right after breakfast instead of going to class.

James walked into the Great Hall and the voices all turned to whispers immediately. Girls of all years turned their heads to him. James loved every minute of it. He messed up his hair, like he'd done for Ginny the night before, and all the girls seemed to swoon. The guys didn't even bother to hide their jealousy. James stopped at the Slytherin table and talked with a few girls.

One in particular, Pansy Parkinson. She obviously had a crush but she was brave, and if James hadn't been at this for years he'd have never noticed that that was why she was so interested in him.

"Hey Potter!" Draco snapped.

James turned to face him. Draco looked so much like his father that James didn't even notice that it wasn't him. "What Malfoy?"

"What? Gryfindor girls not good enough for you, Potter?"

"No, I just like to broaden my horizons. Your not jealous are you Malfoy?"

"Keep away from my girlfriend." Draco warned.

"Threatened?" James smirked.

"Not of you." Draco snapped.

Hermione and Ginny didn't give James a chance to respond. They grabbed his arms and pulled him to the Gryfindor table, the guys laughed at him, and the girls seemed to fell sorry for him.


Harry sat down on the couch as Remus came in.

"I'm so sorry James. It came out of nowhere."

"Yeah, but you didn't push her off you." Sirius snapped, defending who he thought was James.

"Remus, it doesn't matter." Harry said trying to smooth back their friendships.

"'It doesn't matter'?" A girl quoted as she came into the common room. "James, you're obsessed with Lily. You love her! And the fact she's really single doesn't matter? That's it. Li--"

"Jane!" Sirius stopped her. He went over to her and led her to sit with him. "Leave your brother's love life alone." Sirius leaned to her and whispered something to her.

How am I going to do this? I mean I have to get them to think that I'm Dad, so it doesn't change the future. Does that mean I have to flirt with Mum? Man, I got the short end of the stick here. Harry thought.

"James, I bet this'll make you feel better. Jane's dating Sirius." Peter blurted out, obviously trying to make him feel better. Jane, Sirius and Lupin hit Peter in the back of his head.

How am I suppose to react? I'll wing it, I guess. Harry asked himself. "So?" Harry said looking at them; he was now laying down on the couch.

"What no threat of telling mum? James, are you ok?" Jane asked him.

Harry had an idea. "I won't tell Mum," The word seemed strange and foreign. "If you get Lily to go out with me and go to the ball with me. Unless, you really want to date her, Remus?" That sounded even stranger.

"No, I mean, she is your girl." Remus said. Harry could tell he was a little disappointed, but he'd do anything for James.

"I'll talk to her." Jane smiled. She ran across the common room to an ignoring Lily. She was at a table, studying. Jane seemed to be very blunt. Her black hair fell to her shoulders; it didn't seem to have the usual Potter mess to it, as she asked Lily.

"You are a life saver Lily." Jane said obviously happy. She ran back to them. "She agreed, but you have to stop showing off around her all the time, thinking you're the hottest thing to hit Hogwarts since fire and flirting with girls around her. So pretty much deflate your big head." Jane smiled. She sat next to Sirius; it looked like he took her hand.

"I can do that." Harry said. That should be easy, I never do that anyway. Harry thought.


James could tell that Harry was rich, at Quidditch practice he was the seeker and found out he had a Firebolt, which seemed expensive. He skipped class just like James. Obviously handsome. I mean people think I'm him. James thought as he went into the common room. He wasn't able to look though the photo album after breakfast, Hermione had stopped him and forced him to go to class. He passed Ginny and Dean on his way to the dormitories. He went in and opened the trunk and found the photo album. James took it out and sat on the floor with it. The first few pages were all pictures of James or Lily from school. "That's weird. Why would this Harry kid have pictures of me and Lily?" Then he remembered what Ron had told him the day before in the hospital wing. 'Fred and George, Harry. You're not fooling anyone Potter.' "That's it!" James yelled. He looked at Harry's trunk, the HP initials were on it, bright as day. "Harry Potter. Wait, who's Harry Potter?" James asked himself.
