CHAPTER 21
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hey everybody, please leave your comments and reviews to tell me what you think of the story.
"So what do you do, James?" Sarah was strolling next to him in the garden outside.
"Huh," James came back to the world, "I am sorry, I...work in a non paying job at the ..uh...the" He struggled to find some muggle phrases. "a police station."
"Like an internship."
"Like a whaaaa?" James was a little confused, but pulled himself together, "Sure, like an intern...ship."
"So you are going to be a police officer, when?"
'This girl sure asks a lot of questions.' James thought to himself.
"A few years,"
They were a good way from the hall, Sarah pulled him in a corner.
"You know something..." She started to say something, But James had a panic attack.
"I'm sorry, I have to get back to Lily." He pulled himself away from her.
"What is she your girlfriend or something?" Sarah asked in a hurt voice.
"She is...," James was taking quick steps back to the hall, "She is something."
Lily saw James come back,in to the room, she was almost glad he was alone. He came over to her, and sat down again. Then he thought something, and got up again.
"May I have this dance, Ms Evans?" He asked graciously.
Lily laughed, and took his hand, and before they could go on to the dance floor, they were approached by Mr and Mrs Dursley.
"So James, Petunia darling was just telling me that you don't have a job." Vernon was standing in front of him, James looked like a huge man in front of him.
"Yes, she is right, I don't have a job." He said pleasantly.
Lily shot Petunia an annoyed look.
"So you live in an apartment with four other guys?" Vernon asked in a condescending voice, as Petunia let out a sharp giggle.
"My parents left me a couple of places, and a pleasant amount of gold." James's tone was still easy and pleasent.
"What about a car?" Petunia asked him, "Vernon just purchased a beauty."
"A car?" James looked confused, and turned to Lily, "A car, what is a car?" He whispered.
Lily stifled a smile as she pointed to a car that was visible from the side of a window.
"So it just moves?" Vernon thought he was a lunatic."On the ground, like this?" James did a hand gesture to clear up the confusion.
"Yes!" Vernon said coldly. "An it was 10,000 Pounds."
"Pounds?" James turned to Lily.
"Muggle money." She told him softly.
"So you spent 10,000 of your coin thingies on a car which doesn't even fly?" James face displayed the confusion and innocence of a child.
Vernon's face was red, it looked like as if it would explode. Lily nudged him. He turned to her.
"What?" He asked, "It doesn't even fly!"
Lily thought Vernon would punch him.
"I have cousins who are not even of age, but have faster rides then this, I mean broomsticks!" James was bewildered, 'why spend money on this?'
"James, come with me!" Lily took him away, as the vein in Vernon's forehead was popping in and out.
