James was always a ball of energy, he just couldn't help it, he tried to manage it better with age but he was always fidgeting with something or bouncing his leg, or waking up at the break of dawn next to a peacefully sleeping Lily.

In most days he would just admire his wife until she woke up, thanking the heavens for being so lucky.

However, that day his energy was too much. He got out of bed and carefully changed as not to wake Lily up, went for a run and after he started making breakfast for the two of them knowing that Lily would soon for work as he hummed one song stuck in his head.

Prefect rounds were never much of a chore for Benjy. As someone who was quite social, he enjoyed getting to catch up with his fellow prefects as they patrolled around the school. Sometimes he came across corridors and classrooms that he never saw saw during regular school hours. They were always useful discoveries, places he kept privately logged to bring Caitriona to in the future when they needed it. Most of the time, Benjy just caught students snogging after hours; he rarely took away points from their respective Houses, as it would make him a big hypocrite to do so.

For that night’s duty, he’d been paired with Lily Evans, a Gryffindor in the year below that he’d only ever had pleasant interactions with. Benjy, always chivalrous, didn’t want to make Lily walk to meet him so he waited for her to appear outside of the Gryffindor common room. He greeted a couple of other students coming to and from the portrait, some classmates, other friendly Quidditch rivals, until finally Lily appeared. “Hey!” He greeted her warmly with a friendly wave. “Figured we could start from here, make it to the top floors, then make our way down?”

“It’s not that you can’t kiss me.” Lily said, rolling her eyes. She didn’t even glance up at James, lounging on him as she completed the Sunday papers’ crossword.

“It’s that we have to set an example for the younger students and you can’t kiss me all the time.”

James sighed looking to his side o Lily’s paper, “6 down ‘Agree to differ’ same as our conversation. I don’t kiss you all the time.” he pointed looking back at his book but there was no point to it at the moment. He was a teen, he had the woman he was smitten with next to him, his mind was elsewhere.

“It’s Sunday, our supposed day off and I can’t kiss you in the sofa of our Common Room? And what example we are setting, really? That you can’t kiss the person you are in a committed relationship with? To not show love and affection? That’s a rotten example, Miss Evans.”

Turning 25 was a big number, he knew he was one of the last one of his friends to do so but still he felt he needed to celebrate and make sure he enjoyed the occasion. He took the opportunity to enjoy his evening with all the people he loved, specially his wife.

He looked at Lily as she spoke about her day, and it might be different from what he wanted when he was younger, or when the war started. "Settling" was not in his plans, but this felt different from settling, this felt like having all he ever wanted.

"Merlin, you gorgeous."

[7th year] Secret Duties - Jily

7th year had barely began and James Potter was not sure how he felt about it yet. He was Captain of the Quidditch Team, popular chap amongst the school and recently he got the title of Head Boy over the entire male population in the class. He knew he had great academic achievements, he didn’t exactly went about it as much kids his age; having eidetic memory and wanting to solve the puzzles of the castle gave him a fair advantage that most didn’t have. But when the badge came he was surprised, he had more detentions than most people –aside from his fellow Marauders– combined, and he was always pushing boundaries.

Ye he had the badge and had just finished his first Prefect meeting when they got the report. Since the beginning of the year a few students had been targeted; they weren’t just silly pranks like hexing your hair another color, or changing your school robes to party dresses but actual attacks. Most described a bunch of older students surrounding them when they were alone going back to their common room and it made James’ blood boil as he found there were more reports with each day passing.

After dismissing the Prefects he left gathering the scattered papers around the room and just stared at reports trying to find something that he could do to prevent, catch, or at least stop the attacks, when he felt someone standing next to him looking at the reports on the table.

“I thought you went with the rest of them.” he added simply, it wasn’t an accusation, he offered to clean the room, put the chairs and tables back in order, trying to prove he was a good Head Boy so the person next to him wouldn’t be as annoyed with him as usual. However the red head was still there and he wasn’t sure why was that.

[1977] At Last

@lilymarieevans-potter

It was summer and James and Marlene did what they always do, spend most of their time together, practicing Quidditch and just fooling around. This time around he had Sirius living at home, which made his mother a little grayer on the hair but warmer in her heart.

It seemed like it was going to be the perfect summer, they weren’t as scattered as the last and now they were just inviting all their friend for a nice afternoon of games and fun, without worrying about school, war, or anything short than who was the next going into the pool.

He was sitting playing a close chess game with Tiberius, he was one of the few that could corner him but this game was his.

after spending much of his life going from place to place, adrian was thinking of maybe trying to find somewhere a bit more permanent, and what better place than new york to be by family? he was giving it a test run, staying over with his parents without telling joseph –– he wanted to surprise him. after lunch with teddy, teddy gave adrian his house key so adrian could sneak into the house, but it turned out joseph wasn’t home. so he lingered, going into the kitchen and talking on the phone to a realtor he was going to meet the next day when he heard lily, and his first response was thinking joseph was talking to her on speaker because he found he’d snuck in and was trying to piss him off –– for 10 years, lily had been the one he let get away. “cut that shit out, joe. not in the mood...” he hung up by closing his flip phone, going through the fridge for a drink. “your kid gave me his key. you gonna order pizza or something for me? i’m hungry.”

If there was any more strength in James footsteps, or maybe any more time since the announcement, there would be a distinct path of his walk. The gras was flat and the little puffs of warm breaths escaped his lips as he tried to drain the anxiety and pent up energy in the little back yard belonging to the house.

Peter came back, not even a week after they made the Fidelio Charm, and told them the truth, everything. How he was a Death Eater; which was surprising at the moment because James would’ve swore his life to it that his friends would never steep that low; the things he had done, how he tore them apart to not trust one another, to not see Peter for what he really was, and yet James couldn’t stop thinking of Pete as his friend and brother as he tried for the anger to leave his body as quietly as possible.

Peter had come back to warn them, to tell them Voldemort wanted them, but he couldn’t tell the Dark Lord about innocent Harry, lovely Lily and loyal James’ place, he ran, and came to hide in the only place that he could think of that Voldemort couldn’t find him (the Potters’).

James was glad that Peter didn’t betray them, that he didn’t sold them out, but now... What the fuck were they supposed to do? Voldemort wanted Harry, not any other child, it was confirmed, and James didn’t know how to protect his family.

He was about to go for another lap when the sound of a voice made him stop and see that the day became night and that Lily was calling him in. “I’ll be in in a bit.” he added apologizing in the stops for his lack of control over his emotions.
