Forbidden fruit || James Sirius Potter love story

44 - my guardian angel

Uncle Blaise, Zach, my grandparents and aunt Daphne were home too and together we apparated to the Malfoy Graveyard. Dad was holding my hand the whole time we were there. Uncle, grandma and grandpa left first and then my aunt with Zach.

"I'll wait for you outside, take as much as you need, okay?" Dad said. I just nodded.

"Hey mum. Is it weird to talk to a gravestone?... Well, too late... I really miss you. A lot of stuff happened to me over the year. Fist of all, I got into Puddlemere United, I got into another year. I did a party with my enemy, James Potter, and got caught. Can't go to Hogsmeade because of that. Anyways, I started dating Aiden and talking more to James actually. Then I managed to fucked up every relationship I had, but the one with James. I started liking him. Then I got diagnosed with Intermittent Explosive Disorder. Hah, that sucks. I stopped talking with James because of that, so I had no one for a while, but he found a way to me. I started talking again with Zach, Am and Aiden and me and James started dating. But don't tell dad. I got news that I have a chance to get into the National Team. Then I turned James into a spoon. I'm not talking with Am and Aiden right now and I think I'm in love with James. A crazy year. Lot of mental breakdowns.... I just wish you were here to give me some advices..... I can't believe it's been three years. It's not fucking fair. I should be talking to you, but instead of that I'm talking to a fucking gravestone. It's bloody ridiculous." Tears were falling down my face. "...I don't know if you can somehow hear me. If you do, I'm sorry for the swearing and I love you and miss you so much."

I've been there for another five minutes and I decided to go then.

Some reporters photographed me and dad when we were leaving the graveyard. Awesome.

We apparated back to home where aunt and grandparents were waiting for us. Zach and Blaise left. We had dinner together and they then left leaving me and dad alone. We started looking at some old pictures. We do it every year.

"Dad?"

"Hmm?"

"Why did it have to be mum?... She was the last person to deserve that. Why couldn't it be someone else? I know I sound selfish, but she just-" My voice broke.

"...I don't have an answer to that, but what I know is that she was way too good for this world. I really thought she was my guardian angel when she came into my life. I know, that sounds way to cheesy for you, but it's true. She saw good in everybody, including me.... I think the world didn't deserve her." He was stroking my back while saying that.

"...And do you ever regret I was born? I mean, I took some years of life from her." I couldn't look at him.

"I've never regretted it, don't even think about it. The moment you were born, the moment I first saw you, was the best thing that happened to me. You'll get that when you'll have your own child...You gave me a chance to be a better person. I wouldn't be who I'm today, if it wasn't for you. Yes, your mum put me on the right path, but you made me act, if you know what I mean." He smiled at me. "So, don't ever ask me that question again, okay?" I just nodded.

"Can you tell me the story how you and mum met after the war?" I asked after I calmed down a little bit.

"Of course. It was Summer 2000, your mum graduated Hogwarts and her family organized a ball. Your aunt Daphne invited me there and my mum made me go." He started.

Draco's memory

I hate it here. No one wants to talk to me, yet everyone is talking about me. Why did I go here? I knew it'd be like this. I'm still a Death Eater to them. Hope nobody'll come here. It's quite a good view to be honest.
