Chapter 2: Remembering Selene
At the Shrieking Shack…
James orbed in and looked around his surroundings. He recognised the place as one of the rooms in the shrieking shack. 'Why would he come here?" He thought to himself. He heard something move upstairs and a quiet curse word. "Padfoot? You here?" He called out as he made his way to the stairs.
"No, of course it's not me. It's the ghost of the shrieking shack, come to hurt you." Sirius said sarcastically as he appeared at the top of the stairs, a frown on his face.
"Come on Sirius. Talk to me, you know we didn't mean anything by what happened. It was a joke."
"I know Prongs. It's just, do I'm just kind of preoccupied. Do you remember what today is?"
James walked up to the top to meet Sirius and spoke as he walked. "The day before Harry's birthd… ohh, I remember. The day you proposed to Selene."
"Nearly 16 years James. 16 years without her in my life. We were going to get married in the winter. New Years Eve just before midnight, so we could have our first kiss as the New Year began. Do you have any idea how muchit hurts still?" He sat on the top step. James sat beside him.
"Well, now that your innocent, maybe she'll get in contact." James put his hand on his friend's shoulder.
Sirius knocked it off angrily. "No she hasn't yet has she? Nearly 3 weeks since I was announced innocent and not a word. Not one single bloody word."
"Maybe she needed to get used to it, you know, the man she thought was a murderer is innocent. It's a big shock for everyone."
"So what then James. I just wait by the fire or for theowls in the morningto see whether she gets in touch with me? That's what I've been doing for 3 weeks. I don't think I can take it anymore if she stays away." Sirius stood up angrily, walked into one of the other rooms and slammed the door shut. James sighed and walked to the door. He tried to open it, but Sirius had used the key to lock it. And the strongest locking charm he knew.
"Sirius, open the door please." James called to him.
"Make me." Washis reply. "And don't even try apparating, I blocked it."
"I'm coming in whether you like it or not, mate." James said to him firmly.
"Oh yeah, how?"
James orbed into the room and Sirius jumped where he sat on the bed. "That's how."
"Forgot about your little trick." Sirius leaned back on the bed.
"Sirius, mate, she will call you. You were in love for 5 years. She wouldn't have given up on you that easily."
"I guess your right. Say James, do you think, since you can orb, do you think that you could go see her? For me?" Sirius asked hopefully.
"Sirius, I'm not supposed to do that. But I'll see what I can do, up 'there', ok?" James asked, sitting next to his lifelong friend and 'brother'.
"Ok. I just want to see her one more time. Not much to ask is it?"
"Come on Paddy, we both know that you want more than to just see her." James joked.
"Shut up, Jamesikins. And don't call me Paddy."
"Don't call me Jamesikins then." James retorted.
"But you started it."
"Your point being?"
"My point being that... actually I don't know what my point is."
"It's so easy to make you forget stuff Padfoot. Such a simple mind." James grinned and stood up.
"Hey, my mind is not that simple." Sirius replied.
"What ever, you believe that. It got you out of your mood, didn't it? You'd better get back to Godric's Hollow. Everyone was worrying how you were. I'll see what I can do about Selene and don't worry, I'll watch her for a few minutes and see how she is, promise. Ok?" Sirius gave him a nod and James orbed up 'there'. Sirius sighed.
"I just want you back Selene. Why haven't you got in touch yet?" He said to himself before taking the anti-apparating charm off and apparated back to Godric's Hollow, where his godson and company were awaiting for him.
Up 'There'…
James orbed into the room which contained the window to Earth. No one was in there so he walked over and sat in the seat he and Lily used to occupy. He looked into the white cloudiness and said clearly, "Show me Selene Louisa Jarvis." The mist slowly disappeared to show a blonde woman washing up the muggle way. James watched her for a few minutes, to keep his promise to Sirius. He saw her new life as a muggle. But what he saw shocked him. "Bloody hell Selene. When did that happen?" He decided there and then that he would not breathe a word about what he had seen in the window to Sirius, or to anyone for that matter. It was to do with Sirius after all. Not until he thought that Sirius would be ready, or until Selene did come to see him. The latter was less likely as Selene looked to living like a muggle, not even her wand was in view. He cleared the window and orbed back down to Godric's Hollow. Unknown to him, a figure who knew him and Lily when they lived up 'there' all the time was watching him the whole time, face in the shadows...
Back At Godric's Hollow…
Sirius apparated back onto the Quidditch pitch, where he saw everyone talking on the other side. No one had noticed him yet so he put two fingers in his mouth and whistled loudly. Everyone looked around and saw him there with a grin on his face. Harry immediately apparated over to him.
"Where the hell did you go to?" He asked, the rest of the group running over.
"Language, Harry and I just went to a place that was full of old memories. It's just a strange day for me."
"Are you ok now Sirius?" Lily asked when the rest of the group reached them.
"Yeah. It's just…" Sirius was interrupted by James orbing in. "Well?"
"Selene's fine. She's living as a muggle now though."
"Selene? Oh Sirius, I completely forgot." Remus put his hand on his friends shoulder. "Are you sure you're ok?"
"Yeah, I talked some things over with James."
"Who's Selene?" Harry asked the adults.
"It doesn't matter, Harry. Someone we used to know a long time ago." Lily said.
"Ok." He didn't sound convinced, but he decided to find out a few things later. "So, what was you saying about a seeker showdown?" The three Marauders grew huge grins.
"Let me tell you all about them." And so James, with the help of Sirius and Remus, explained seeker showdowns to the younger generation hoping to pass on their wisdom onto them, who would then pass it onto their children, who would then… well, you get the picture.
Chapter 2 complete. Woo! Who's Selene though, hmm give me some ideas of who you think it is! And I think that your going to like chapter 3, but you can't read it unless you review, evil aren't I? Lol! And I have a beta! Lycan Lamia! Yayness, I have a beta!
