The other Potter boy

James Potter

Faith stood on the platform trying to take in the hustle around her.

"What if i'm in Slytherin?" Faith heard Albus ask his father, and laughed at the reply of Harry's best friend.

"If you're in Slytherin we'll dis-own you!"

Faiths parents hugged her whilst the other children began to board the train. A tear trickled down her mother cheek and her father seemed to reluctant to let her go. Looking back, Faith saw her parents talking to the family who had helped her through the barrier, and smiled. She heard the whistle, and quickly rushed into the carriage. The train lurched as it set off, causing Faith to trip. A strong arm caught her mid-fall and pulled her back up.

"Careful there, don't want your pretty face broken now, do we." A loud confident voice Faith knew she would recognise anywhere teased. Faith yanked her arm out of his grasp and picked her things up. She could hear a group of girls giggling behind her. Standing up, she turned to James, who was stood in the door of a compartment surrounded by a group of boys all nudging each other and the girls she had heard giggling. James' dark black hair fell messily almost covering his eyes, which were the same golden brown colour as his mothers.

"Thanks" Faith mumbled, turning away again.

"Hey wait!" James jogged after her, taking her arm again. Faith turned, shocked at how close his devestatingly beautiful face was. "I don't believe i introduced myself." He held out his hand "James Potter." 

"Enchanted" Faith replied, turning on her heels. 

"I didn't catch your name" James called after her. Faith turned the top half of her body to face him, her pale ginger hair swishing over her shoulder as she did so.

"Faith." she told him "Faith Darskye"
