Chapter 19-
James and his family had come over Lars' house for Christmas, Robert had bought James a few gifts, as James parents had done for Lars. They sat down and ate dinner, Montague's parents didn't come over, and they were away and left no trace of where they had gone.
"How is your year going Lars?" Robert asked Lars, as James acted like a fool, stuffing down dinner and annoying Lars as he went to talk.
"Good," Lars smiled. "James, Sirius, Remus and Peter are still friends," Lars saw Robert smile.
"I would assume James is," Robert laughed. "He is sitting right here!" Everyone at the table laughed.
"Lars is close to Remus," James said. "They have secrets to be told," Lars just stared at James, trying to act unsure of what James meant.
Lars did know though, that James would find out that Remus is a werewolf, only fear for Lars was how James would handle that.
After dinner, they opened gifts. James had gotten a new set of Quittich gloves and a bunch of special gifts. Lars had gotten similar gifts, and including a Gryffindor medal, with the lion actually spitting out red fire.
"This is nice," Lars said to James' parents. "Thank you!"
Eventually, the week had come to an end, James had spent much of the break with Lars, as Lars finally told James about Remus, and his secret.
"Please don't ask him yet," Lars told James. "He will tell you his secret eventually,"
James agreed to keep everything a secret, as they were bound to board the Hogwarts Express the following night.
"I'm wondering how Sirius is doing," James said to Lars, as they went to sleep. "I hope he's not killed."
"Don't worry," Lars managed to smile. "He will be fine, he can tell us everything soon,"
"Hope it's all good," James laughed, as a few minutes later, they both fell asleep.
