This chapter is focusing on James Potter, and he will be receiving his Hogwarts letter that he has been waiting for ever since he was old enough to understand! I hope you enjoy, and again, please leave a review! Also, want to let you know that I will be making chapters longer soon; I am just setting up the plot right now. Sorry if there are a few grammatical errors. I may be a somewhat of an author but I am not a good editor... Anyway, hope you enjoy! :)
D/N: I am not JK Rowling. I do not own anything other than the plot of the story, the characters are all of hers, I am just trying to build off of what I know and fill in gaps.
Chapter two:
"James, Dear, can you please go fetch the mail?" asked Mrs. Potter.
"Yes, mum!" said James with no complaint. James went running down the sidewalk seeming to be racing a bunch of ghosts. He imagined he was on his broomstick holding a quaffle, weaving in and out of his competitors. James has lived, breathed, drank quidditch ever since Mr. Potter was allowed to let him play. He was two when he received his first toy broomstick to Mrs. Potter's reluctance. Mrs. Potter was always worried James would get hurt since he would be their only child, but she also knew she could never keep something that Mr. Potter felt so strongly for, away from James.
When James got to the mailbox, he did his victory dance acting as if he had just scored. His small hands reached into the mailbox and pulled out the mail. As he started walking back to the house, he was looking through the mail as if he was expecting to see something. Boy was James right! Right behind the second letter was an acceptance letter for James to no other school, than Hogwarts! Right when James saw the letter he sprinted inside screaming at the top of his lungs,
"MUM! DAD! I GOT MY HOGWARTS LETTER!" James was jumping up and down in the living room and on and off the couch.
"James! How wonderful!" said Mrs. Potter
"Let me see, bud!" said Mr. Potter with glee in his eyes. Sure enough, he went through the whole letter and James was going to Hogwarts.
Mrs. Potter was on the edge of tears. They were both tears of happiness and sadness. The happiness was that James was going to the school that everyone in her family has gone through with the exception of a few muggleborns here and there, so she was super happy. But she was also sad because she would finally have to say goodbye to her little boy, her only boy. She can remember just like yesterday when her and husband had just taken James home for the first time. He was so cute with his dark brown silky baby hair, and small chubby arms and legs. His eyes and smile were something she would never forget. James had her eyes, they were dark-chocolate, big twinkling eyes. She can vividly remember when James looked right up at her with those big eyes and he just has a huge grin on his face, that he had obviously inherited from his father. They were one happy family and in a place they could call home forever and she didn't want to lose that with James going to Hogwarts.
Mr. and Mrs. Potter were both a little upset because with James going to be gone they wouldn't have little footsteps around the house anymore, and they would try to conceive another child, but Mrs. Potter wasn't able to anymore due to a problem she had when giving birth to James and they didn't want the child to be that many years apart from James. They will just have to find some new hobbies and write lots of letters to James and send him a bunch of treats.
"DAD! DAD, does this mean we get to go to Diagon Alley?!" said James excitedly, breaking the trance that both Mr. and Mrs. Potter were in.
"Yes, James it does." said Mr. Potter with a small smile.
"Can we go now?!" said James practically jumping out of his pants.
Mr. and Mrs. Potter looked at the clock and it read 7:00 AM. The Potters were usually early risers so it wasn't unusual for them to be done with breakfast, by now.
"Yes, James. Help me clean up after breakfast and get all your regular chores done. We will be out the door by 7:30 AM." said Mrs. Potter.
Mr. and Mrs. Potter had never seen a boy move so fast but get everything done right and clean. They were out the door in a little under a half hour.
And Mr. and Mrs. Potter had never seen their boy smile so big, and his eyes sparkle so light. It was almost exactly like the time when they brought James home for the first time and that made both of their hearts happy and put smiles on their faces. It was then that both of the Potter parents knew that they would never lose there son completely, even when he was gone at Hogwarts because his eyes and smile told them that James would always love them, and it was 100% true.
