A Favor For Dumbledore

Chapter 2: something is going on

P.O.V James

"Something's up with that baby," I protested as we walked away from the Gryffindor table, "it inexplicably knows too much," I continued, looking back at Lily who was still talking to Alice as though nothing was wrong.

"Don't worry your pretty little head Jammie, he was probably just babbling," Sirius said. I knew that look better than he thought, he was definitely trying to convince himself rather than me.

"Boys can't you use your brains?" Remus tested, rolling his eyes like he had all the answers.

"Of course not Moony. I lost it in the desert, would you like to help me find it?" Sirius jabbered, Remus rolled his eyes, which was enough of a reason for me to join in the fun.

"I'll help Padfoot, as long as you help me find mine. I think it might have been lost in the forbidden forest," I carried on smirking.

"Wormtail, tell these idiots I don't want to help them find their brains. Whatever their planning to do with them will not be helped by thought," Remus moked, letting Peter into the conversation.

"What do you think is going on anyway Moony?" Peter asked.

"Harry is showing early signs of being able to perform legilimency, that's how he knew our names. I read about it a couple months ago. It is a little early for showing signs but it's not unheard of," Remus explained, he had put the book he was reading down to emphasise the point.

"That still doesn't explain why Harry called Prongs, Dada. Or does it?" Sirius smirked, raising an eyebrow. No, definitely not, nowhere near posible, my face flushed.

"No, bad dog. What is wrong with you," I hissed back.

"He did kinda look like James," Wormtail pointed out. My skin crawled slightly, it wasn't possible but it still scared the living daylights out of me.

"Ok different topic, let's talk about how Padfoot went soft when he was holding Harry," I redirected. I didn't really didn't care, I just wanted to get the attention off me.

"What, I like kids. There adorable, did you see Harry he is so cute," Sirius smiled. I was expecting as much of a response. Sirius has no shame and I already knew that he likes kids. When we were thirteen his cousin Andromeda had a baby girl named Nymphadora, he snuck out with me to meet her. She is a metamorphmagus and I personally would love to see that kid become a pranker. Can you imagine the chaos?

"Besides that I think you're right James, there are so many other places to keep a baby, why Hogwarts," Moony mused.

"Hey Moony, why were you so afraid of Harry," Peter asked curiously. He was the shortest of all of us and he always seemed like he was running to keep up with us.

"You know I just didn't want to hurt him," Moony shivered. I wrapped my arm around his shoulder in comfort.

"You shouldn't worry were no ware near the full moon, you wouldn't hurt a butterfly. No need to worry about a baby," I reassured him. Remus smiled at me, Padfoot and Wormtail did their best to look comforting.

"Mr. Potter, Mr. Pettigrew, Mr. Lupin, and Mr. Balck would you come here for a moment," Mcgonagall yelled in our direction.

"We're in trouble," Padfoot said with no remorse in his voice.

"I have one detention a month limite, we have detention tonight," I worried aloud.

"And what would be so bad about that no more responsibilities, no more Lily yelling at you," Sirius listened but Remus cut him off.

"No more sharing a dorm and common room with Lily," he combated.

"Hey I like being head boy, and I'm offended you think so little of me," I explained, raising an eyebrow to communicate I wasn't serious.

"Fine," they chanted together as we moved toward Mcgonagall.

"Hello boys I'd just like to tell you that your detention has changed, headmaster Dumbledore has requested you serve the detention in his office. Be there at six sharp," she commanded before swiftly walking off. What on earth is going on?

"Was it just me or did she look worried?" Sirius asked, looking worried himself.

"Mark my words, something is going on," as I said this I smirked, "anyone wanna help me find out?"

"Sure," Wormtail chered

"Absolutely," Suris smirked back at me.

"If you get me expelled James, you will regret it" Remus worned me.

"No need to worry Moony," I reassured. I was gonna find out what was going on and my first start was going to be Dumbledore. I would ask as many questions as I can but has anyone really gotten a straight answer from Dumbledore?
