Harry lazily kicked the sand of the Quidditch pitch as he stared resolutely at the night sky, wishing more than anything that it had been him. Why couldn't it have been him? He wondered with no small ounce of humor if he would ask himself that question forever.
~
Set during the summer after Harry's fourth year. The Triwizard Tournament happened, and Harry is not coping with...well anything. But leave it to a certain Potions Master to help him (against his will, mind you). With a new found trust in the man he'd once hated, a plotting headmaster, pressure from the newly found Order, and struggling relationships with his two best friends, will the boy survive the summer?
Title is based off of the song Merry Christmas, Please Don't Call by the Bleachers. This song has kind of the inspiration for my writing so far, so I recommend giving it a listen!
Rated mature only for some of the topics (i.e., eating disorders, abuse, and self-harm/suicidal tendencies). Please read at your own risk!

Affliction [James PotterxOC]
Ophelina Averinton bound by duty, burdened by power, and chained to a fate she cannot escape. James Potter is wild, reckless, destined for a war she was meant to fight. Their paths should have never crossed, yet fate binds them through love, betrayal, and pain. No matter how far they drift, they are pulled back together, even when the world fights to keep them apart. Like fire and water- forces that should never touch, for they are destined to clash. Yet when the fire blazes too fiercely, it craves the cool embrace of water to soothe its rage. And when the water grows too cold, frozen and still, it longs for the warmth of fire to reignite its flow. In their contrast, they are both the destruction and salvation of each other. "Love is too fragile word for me when it comes to you, Lina" ---------------- [I haven't specified the appearances of the characters, allowing readers the freedom to imagine them as they wish.] Warning: This story unfolds as a slow-burn narrative filled with drama, conflicts, intense emotional and physical trauma, themes of violence and death. It also contains mature themes and scenes that may not be suitable for all audiences. Reader discretion is advised.

Unbound: The Fourth Champion
Harry Potter was never meant to be in the Triwizard Tournament. But when his name is pulled from the Goblet of Fire, everything begins to unravel-not just the tournament, but the life he's been forced to live. Abandoned by friends, doubted by his mentors, and caged by hidden magical restrictions, Harry finally makes a decision: He's done pretending. No longer the obedient student, no longer the Boy Who Lived under everyone else's control, Harry begins to rewrite the rules. He studies in secret, masters forgotten magics, and allies with unexpected students-particularly from Slytherin. As he walks through fire, faces dragons, dives into freezing lakes, and navigates deadly mazes, Harry forges a new identity: one not defined by prophecy or fame, but by freedom. With Fleur Delacour at his side-not a fantasy, but a fierce, intelligent partner-and Gabrielle as his loyal shadow, Harry's world expands beyond house colors, school walls, and old legacies. This is not the Harry you remember. This is the one who chose to live Unbound. ✅ Powerful, independent Harry ✅ Slytherin friendships, slow-burn romance ✅ Magical theory, creature lore, political rebellion ✅ Found family, emotional growth, no clichés ✅ Canon divergence with meaning and biteComplete
The End Of It All
The war is over. Lives are slowly going back to normal. Summer break is hard for everyone, but one person in particular isn't sure if he can make it. Harry Potter.

What he's about to do, no one knows about. Until the one person he was able to save finds him. This story has severe mentions of suicide, self harm, rape, ect. Don't read if this makes you uncomfortable. Do not repost on any other website/account without my permission.Complete

Everyone deserves a second chance
Sirius did something that he would never ever ever do, but he did it anyway. He broke Remus and his own heart, and as his world is slowly crumbling around him, he has to pick it all back up again single handed. After pulling "the prank" against Snape in his fifth year, he doesn't realize how much his actions would hurt Remus and he can't stop them until it's much too late to do anything about it. Started: Dec 27 2024 Ending: hopefully Dec 2025 Approx: 25 chapters Updates are twice a month!!( I'll try to write more often, just school work is TERRIBLE) This IS technically the canon story line and it is placed from 1974-1975 when Harry's father was still at school but it is from Sirius Black's perspective. This is my story, but the characters and the main plot line belong to J.K.Rowling. Just to make things clear, as much as I love Harry Potter, I absolutely do not support J.K.Rowling and her disgusting views so this fic does not reflect on her views at all. Love Josie xxxComplete
