Chapter Eighteen – Reconcile
Mia found James in the Gryffindor common room sitting in one of the best couches staring into the fire. Mia approached him and sat down next to him. He didn’t even look at her or even show any sign that he knew she was there.
“James-“
“Let me guess,” said James, continuing on looking into the fire, “You’re gonna say that I’m one of the worst brothers in the whole universe and I’m a good for nothing moron.”
“Not exactly.” said Mia, “I just wanted to apologize.”
He looked at her with extreme shock on his face; obviously he hadn’t expected her to say this.
“What you did was unforgivable but I know now that you were just trying to protect me because of Slytherin’s reputation. That is the reason you did what you did wasn’t it?” she added, looking at him skeptically.
“Of course!” said James, “I’m you brother, Mia and I don’t want to see you get hurt. I just wanted to make sure that Snape wouldn’t hurt you in any way.”
“James, I kind of appreciate what you’re doing for me, but I can take care of myself. If Severus is the wrong guy for, I’ll just know it. Right now, I just want our relationship to work. If you want, you can still spy on me, but only at a far off distance and you can’t interfere unless I give the okay. Deal?”
James gave Mia a sheepish smile. “Deal.” He frowned and looked back into the fire.
“What’s wrong?” asked Mia
“I just can’t believe you’re forgiving me so easily!” he said, frustrated, “I almost got you killed.”
“I’d appreciate it if you tried not to do that again.” said Mia, smiling.
“This isn’t a joke!” James said in a serious tone, “I got you into the hospital because of some grudge. You deserve a better brother than me.” he buried his face into his hands and silently cried. Mia put her arms around her big brother and hugged him.
