Girl Next Door (One shots) //On Hold\\

One Year

🖤Xandra🖤

It's been a year since Antony died. I know everyone remembers it, but nobody has said anything. James is missing since morning. I'm in my room watching Harry Potter and eating ice cream. The girls and guys are downstairs probably or in Cole's house. I don't know and I don't wish to find out as long as I'm left alone. I feel terrible. I can't even imagine what James if feeling. Even though they were step siblings, they both cared about each other. "Xandra?" A voice came through the door along with a soft knock. "Go away." I replied without pausing the movie. "It's me, Xander." Ryder said as he opened the door slowly. "Come in." I sighed. He came inside and softly closed the door, then sat beside me on the bed. "You know, he was our friend too." He said. "I know, but I... You guys have any idea where James is?" I asked, changing the subject. "We don't know. He isn't answering his phone and he's not at Antony's grave either." Ryder said as he leaned against the headboard. I got up and took my phone and dialed James. "I might have a clue where he is or could be." I said as the phone rang. After two more times James finally picked up. "Xandra?" His voice was hoarse, was he crying? "James, are you at the grave?" I asked. "Yes. I am." He replied. There were sounds of leaves Scrunching meaning, he was walking. "I want you to come back. Please. You're not the only one affected by his death." I said softly. "Just give me an hour." He replied before hanging up. "But we searched the grave, he wasn't there." Ryder said, confusion written all over his face. "Because he isn't at Antony's grave. He's at Jasmine's grave." I whispered. Like me, I figured James would also go to Jasmine at a time like this. After all, he did love her once.

Two hours later. We were all at Antony's grave. Even James was here. We all had roses of different types colour with us. I know, we should only give white flowers, but come on, do we care? No.

We all have our little speech and finally it was my turn. We all felt a little better now. Even James.

"Hey Antony. I hope you're listening to this because I hate repeating myself. So okay, first I wanna say, I was an idiot. If I had untied you, this wouldn't have happened. But, what has happened has happened, and I won't sit around grieving for that. I also want you to know how grateful I am for every time you picked me up and helped me when I was  in trouble. You were there when I was alone." I wiped my eyes with the white hanky. His white hanky. "You were right. I do need this more you." I said chuckling and pointing at the hanky before continuing. "I am hoping you're with Fred, Sirius, Remus, Tonks, James, Lily, Dumbledore and Snape. Have fun with them my friend. I still cry at certain parts in Harry Potter and I still bitch about why Umbitch didn't die. All in all, I know I'm speaking nonsense, but I want you to know how amazing of a friend you were. We all love you and we all miss you." I finished. Each and every word I spoke, was nothing but the truth. I hope be could hear that. I hope, he was here, with us.

We all felt lighter and ordered pizza while watching Harry Potter. And even after everything, All was Well.

I had to add the last line. Potterheads will get it.
