James woke up the next morning to be in the Hospital Wing. I was sitting on a chair as I had my head resting on his chest. I must've looked as if I had been lying there the entire night. Remus and Sirius were sitting in chairs at the end of his bed as Harry, Ron and Hermione were talking quickly and quietly apart from the group only looking over at them in certain intervals.

He woke up as I raised my head from his chest. I kissed his forehead immediately and yelled. What else could you do?

"HE'S AWAKE!" I yelled.

Everyone looked at him while Harry, Ron and Hermione exchanged worried glances. They hurried over noticing me staring at them.

"Sorry da. I should have warned you. Those things are dangerous." Harry said quickly.

"It's fine. He's alright." I said softly. I was just relived.

"We feel bad." Hermione added.

"Will I live?" James asked scanning around the room carefully.

"Sorry, Prongs. You're to die in twenty four hours," Sirius said with all honesty.

"Oh thanks," James replied before falling back asleep while I took the honor of slapping Sirius' head.

^*^*^*^*^*^

Over the next week, James slowly progressed. Finally on Friday, James was released from the Hospital Wing and was allowed to return to his classes. I stayed by his side the entire time but noticed as Harry, Ron or Hermione would secretly look inside the chest.

On Saturday all three of them were inside the library all day. The objects were never spoken of, or seen. But on Sunday, the worst thing happened. Seriously. It was worse than when I discovered I had fallen asleep with a cheap-brand of lipstick on and it smeared all over my face.

"You four! My office! Now! Professor McGonagall shouted.

James, Sirius, Remus and I followed her to her office. We walked inside and noticed something was wrong. Dumbledore looked at us gravely.

"Minerva and I have found my time turner. It's time to go back home." Dumbledore said quietly, letting his head motion to the corner of Minerva's desk to show us where the time turner lie.

One Word: Speechless.

^*^*^*^*^*^

Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny were swarming the schools frantically.

"Where are they? They said they were going to lunch." Harry said.

"We'll find them" Ginny replied.

"Where would you hate for them to be?" Ron asked randomly

"McGonagall's Office." Hermione said, slapping her own forehead and took hold of Ron's hand.

They all began to run until they made it to her office door. Harry opened the door and looked at us in horror. We were all holding the time turner waiting to return home.

"No!" Harry screamed.

"One…" McGonagall said.

"NO WAY!" Ginny screamed.

"Two…" McGonagall replied.

"GUYS GRAB ON!" Harry shouted as they lunged to touch the time turner.

"Three…" McGonagall said.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!?" I screamed.

"I lost you once. I'm not doing that again." Harry replied before we were all sucked into the year 1977.
