Patches of their love

                                                    Patches of their love

                                                    ~James and Sophie~

Dedicated to @SophieLouise_1D. This is the first chapter of Patches of their love. I hope to have a chapter for most the next gen kids and their significant others, showing little snippets of their lives together. But it begins with James Potter and Sophie Jennings...

Megan walked after her friends in a daze, not caring in the slightest that it was the boy's dorm. She spent more time in there than her own after all. 

"I just, I can't believe it."

"Say It's not true!" Fred wailed dramatically, flinging himself down on his four-poster. 

"Oh shut it the both of you," James snapped, finally having enough with the theatrics of his friends. 

"No need to get touchy James," Louis sat down on his own bed, a superior smirk on his face. His eyes were practically a flashing neon sign; 'I told you this would happen' 

James ignored him. "Look, all it was, was one kiss, just one kiss okay?" 

"Oh so that's what it was, I thought you were eating her face," Megan snorted unkindly at Fred's remark and James glared at them both, his cheeks going pink. 

"So you telling us that you don't fancy her then Jamie?" Louis reached over to him and poked him in the ribs. 

James opened his mouth to deny such an awful thing but found he couldn't. Her blue eyes, always full with mischief, swam before him. He could remember every detail of her face, how her sleek red hair felt as it ran thorough his fingers, her full rich lips pressed against his...

"Oi! Earth to James!" James jumped at sound of his cousin's voice breaking through his thoughts like a sledge hammer to a mirror. 

Fred exchanged a worried look with Louis before standing up and placing a hand on James’s forehead. 

"Get off," James tugged away but Fred pulled him back stubbornly and proceeded to take his pulse. 

"Dear Merlin," Fred shook his head sadly as if he had just confirmed his friend had a serious illness.

"What is it?" Louis let out in a horrified whisper fearing James's condition. 

"What the h-" James began but Fed continued gravely.

"My suspicions have been confirmed, I'm afraid it's true,"

"What are yo-" James tried again but Louis let out an anguished wail, 

"NO!"

"Yes I'm afraid so," Fred sighed bowing his head. "He's- " He took a shuddering breath before announcing to the room "In love," 

Louis collapsed on the ground moaning "No, he's been claimed!" James yelled over him,

"What! No, don't be stupid. I can't be!" He gave Fred an incredulous look but inside he was shaking. Could he really be? Could he be in love...with a Slytherin?

James crouched low behind the wall, peeking round the corner at his pray. That git Lynch was cackling his head off, strutting around with his friends like he owned the place. It got on his bloody nerves.

“Did you see his face?” one of his cronies, (James couldn’t be bothered learning their names), snickered. 

“You got him good and prober Dan!” Lynch’s other friend cried gleefully, clapping Lynch on the shoulder as if congratulating him on some noble deed.
