Jemma Granger (a Harry Potter fanfiction)

Worries and suprises

Chapter 15

Jemma's POV

Over the next few weeks I had noticed a change in Lily's behaviour when James was with me and we were around her. She was acting odd which wasn't usual for her. She had been forcing laughter when jokes were shared, or fake smiles or in someways, forced happiness when James was around me.

I could only think of one answer which was pretty obvious.

Jealousy?

I mean James always did pester her before we were going out, and I could tell it annoyed her but was there some hidden emotions there?

I honestly didn't know what to do, I mean I know they end up together, but when would I break up with James? When would they start going out? Should I evening gone out with James? There was seriously too many questions at the moment. I knew I was more distant from the others for a while as these questions pestered my mind and I could see the boys alone were concerned about me. They would constantly try to talk to me and make me join in the conversation about the latest prank plan or other prank ideas but to be honest I got so caught up in my mind thinking about what would happen and how long I would stay here, it made me start to miss home.

Miss my family.

Miss Draco.

I had been thinking a lot about him too and how he must be coping if I was like this then he must be like traumatised! He probably has no idea what's going on and is probably really worried. Now I feel guilty

Great

I mean seriously, I need to figure out a way to get home, this isn't my era.

I also started going to the library lately to try and find out ways to get back to my time which made the boys even more concerned as they all knew I would never go into the library willingly and especially not in my free time. They all kept on pestering me asking if I was okay, if I was feeling alright and personally it really started to annoy the shit outta me.

Currently at the moment I was sat in the common room with my head on James' lap, with him playing with my hair, twiddling it between his fingers then letting go and repeating it. I was facing upwards reading a book on time travel and ways to time travel.

Remus was also reading a book, no surprise there, and Sirius was lying down on the other couch with his hands behind his head. Peter was off somewhere else, he disappears a lot lately. Strange.

"Why are you so interested in time travel all of a sudden Jem?" James asked me breaking the comfortable silence between us all.

I tensed for a spilt second as the comment had caught me off guard. "Well you know, wouldn't you just love to time travel? Like see the past, the future?" I lied easily as I had done so on many occasions with Draco escaping McGolams grasp.

"Well, I'm more of an 'in the present' type of guy you know" replied James as he continued to play with my hair still.

"Ha ha very funny, but seriously wouldn't you at least want to visit the past or future?"

He thought for a second "well, I guess it would be fun to see the future... that would be pretty cool, like if someone came from the future and knew all about us and how we would end up"

"Yeah, that would be cool..." I replied awkwardly.

Oh James, you really can be seriously blind sometimes, I'm right in front of you! Oh the irony.

"I worried about you Jem, we all are, you seem really cut off from the rest of us you know, your quieter than usual and that's just odd, you're always like so distant now."
