Hi, it's James. James Potter.

hide and sleep - year 1

His birthday and Easter had been the only exception for Ted from learning.

Occasionally, they could hear groans and curses and bangs when he threw his book through the room or banged his head on the table.

James was highly annoyed with the learning attitude of Ted's that didn't let him do something with him.

He played with Lily and Albus, but Lily always wanted him to play or watch Frozen, and after ten times he had grown bored of it, and whatever he played with Albus, they always ended up at odds and sulky.

So now he took other methods.

He and Albus sat in Lily's room, and they were rewatching the scene from Frozen with the song 'Do you want to build a snowman' over and over again.

Lily already was able to sing it completely, but James and Albus struggled, and it took them over an hour to get it perfectly.

Why, you may be asking, would they be doing that, considering they actually thought it was a girl's song?

Well, as soon as they finally knew the lyrics perfectly, they went over to Ted's room.

"Teddy?", Lily called out and Albus knocked rhythmically on the door.

"Do you wanna build a snowman?", they sung together.

"Come on let's go and play. We never see you anymore, come out the door, it's like you've gone away!"

"We used to be best buddies, and now we're not.", James sang, and dramatically put a hand to his heart and slid down the door, "I wish you would tell my why!"

Ted answered, "Because I'm studying.", but it was muffled through the door and they ignored it.

Now they sang together again: "Do you wanna build a snowman? It doesn't have to be a snowman."

"Now you have to say 'Go away Anna'.", Lily called out to Ted.

"Go away Lily.", Ted said annoyed.

"Okay bye.", Lily sighed out dramatically.

They waited a few seconds, and then they re-emerged with full power into the next part.

"Do you wanna build a snowman? Or ride our bike around the halls? I think some company is overdue, I've started talking to the pictures on the walls! Hang in there, Joan. It gets a little lonely, all these empty rooms, just watching the hours tick by!"

"Teddy?", James started, and he finally opened the door.

"No, close the door, you're not supposed to come out!", Lily complained and shut the door in front of Ted's face again.

James continued: "Please I know you're in there, people are asking where you've been, they say 'Have courage' and I'm trying to, I'm right out here for you, please let me in! We only have each other, it's just me an you, what are we gonna do?"

Together they ended with a last exaggerated, "Do you wanna build a snowman?", where James slid down on the door finally and Albus just copied him.

"You can come out now, your coronation is in a few minutes.", Lily grinned.

The door opened, and Ted faced them, not knowing if he should laugh or cry.

"You know you're like, really weird, right?"

James didn't answer, he pretended to have blacked out or something.

"Come on, we have to get you ready for your coronation, at first you need to practice touching the scepter without it turning to ice.", Lily tried to pull Ted out of the room.
