WHO: James and Harry
WHAT: Harry has difficult news for James
WHERE: James' parents' house
WHEN: Friday 4th November, 1980
RATING: PG for sad
Much as James had been complaining that Harry did not share enough with them about the future, now that the time came, he was reluctant to hear any of it. Maybe it would be better not to know. Maybe they should just let the future be what it was going to be, and remain blissfully unaware. However, this was all nerves, and James knew it. If Harry had felt the need to come back here and risk everything, then something needed to change, and he was damn well going to help Harry change it.
But what 'it' was had James worried. This new 'it' was something to do with dragon pox, and he felt pretty sure it was going to be about Peter. Why Pete's immune system was weak enough to succumb to it, he did not know, but it was the only explanation that made sense of everything for James. He hurried over to his parents' house to meet Harry in a state of anxious trepidation, and let himself in. Not even stopping to find and greet his parents, James took the stairs two at a time and made his way to Harry's room. There, at last, he stopped, and knocked.
"Harry," he said urgently, as though even waiting for a response was too much.
