Chapter Two
James Potter's eyes fluttered open, his arms and legs soaked with sweat.
"Just another nightmare." He whispered thankfully.
He stood up, his legs still shaking, and got dressed for the day. Just as he was about to leave his room, a loud screech came from his windowsill. It was a large tawny owl, with a note bound to its leg.
He let the owl in, and opened the letter with haste.
Dear Mr. Potter, the letter read
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Enclosed you shall find a list of all materials needed. Term starts September the 1st. Please owl an answer back no later then July 31st.
Sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall Deputy Headmistress
"Mom! I'm in!" James shouted down the stairs.
"That's wonderful dear!" his mother yelled back, "We will go shopping tomorrow then! Oh, and write them back!"
Hastily, James scribbled a reply to the letter and sent the owl out again, and then he went down the stairs, to eat breakfast.
"Hello Trixie!" James greeted the house elf.
"Master James! How are you being?"Trixie asked nervously.
"Awesome Trix, except, don't call me 'Master', call me James." James said.
"If it pleases you….. James. I cooked eggs today! Bacon too!" Trixie said with a small smile.
"Great! I'm starving!" James answered, falling into one of the chairs.
After breakfast, James went out to fly around on his broomstick, chasing a Golden Snitch, which his father had bewitched so that it wouldn't stray or ever be seen by the Muggles next door.
After supper, James climbed the stairs to his room. A second before he hit the bed, he thought,"This has been the best day ever!"
