James Potter x Fem!Slytherin!Reader
Previous Part Series Masterlist
Summary: In which James gets to see your other side.
Warnings: Mentions of injury/death, crying, fluff (maybe…?)
───※ ·❆· ※───
James had woken up a few hours later, finding you still asleep. His stomach grumbled and he decided to get food for himself and you, for when you would wake.
He found the food prepared by Molly and headed back in only to find you standing, gazing outside through the window. James quickly set the food down.
“What in the world are you doing up!?”
You turned around and merely stared at him before saying, “Oh crap, how did I end up in hell!? I was supposed to be in heaven! Now you're going to annoy me for eternity.”
James narrowed his eyes, “You are not dead.” He answered before his eyes softened, “Please sit back down, you’re not supposed to be up and running just yet.”
You rolled your eyes, “Fine.” You replied but James noticed how you winced with each step you took, as the effects of the wound were still very fresh. You let out a small cry of pain as you dropped back onto the bed as the healing skin stretched painfully.
James immediately began to fuss over you, “Shit, are you alright? Where does it hurt? Should I try to get someone? Or should-“
“Potter, relax.” You interrupted him. “I’m fine.”
He nodded before handing you a plate full of assorted foods.
“Molly threatened me that you better have eaten this before she comes back in the morning to check on you, or she'll have my head.”
A small smile crawled onto your lips, “That would have been an amusing sight, but remind me to thank Molly.”
James pouted but bit back the remark sitting upon his tongue. Instead he voiced the one thought that was haunting him.
“Why?”
You paused, raising an eyebrow in confusion, “Pardon?”
“Why? Why did you take my place? Why did you save me from the spell and took the hit yourself?”
You sighed, setting your plate to the side.
“It was better me than you.” You answered, staring off into the distance as your mind traveled elsewhere. “You have family and friends that would be devastated if anything happened to you. And me,” You let out a cold laugh, “My family would celebrate my death, plus I guess so I would deserve it.” You voice cracked near the end.
“No you don’t.” James immediately said, kneeling in front of you. “Why would you think that?”
Your eyes glossed over, “I had vowed to protect someone I considered a younger brother, a-and I left him there in that cruel world.”
“Who?” James questioned.
“Regulus.”
“Regulus?” James asked in confusion, “As in Sirius’ younger brother, Regulus?”
You nodded in confirmation. “I took him under my wing at Hogwarts and although he had a hard way of expressing it, I know he loved me a lot too. He was broken after Sirius ran away from home, and I know it must have hurt even more when I decided to escape that dark world. I tried to take him with me, begged him, but unfortunately a small part of him was influenced by his parents. Plus, he was too scared to go against his parents.” You explained, eyes welling up. “I left him there when I shouldn’t have, and perhaps all of this,” You gestured towards your injured body, “Is just the consequences of my actions.”
James was reeling in with shock. Sure he had seen you and Regulus a few times together at Hogwarts, but he never realized you were capable of loving someone this deeply and loyally, and that you both shared such a huge bond. James had always been at the receiving end of hate. You would laugh at him, mock him, poke fun at him, tease him, give him glares, sneers and what not, but apparently that was just for him, and Sirius too.
He had never gotten the chance to witness this soft, loving and caring side to you.
It suddenly came crashing down hard on James. Remus and Lily were right about you. James truly had been wrong about you this entire time.
Your sniffles brought him back and he cupped your face, wiping the tears away with his thumb.
“Y/n, listen, you are not at fault here. I’ll tell you what I told Sirius when he was in a similar state. You had given Regulus the option, the opportunity to start a fresh life. It was his choice to stay behind, no matter how hard you tried. You can’t blame yourself, because you are not at fault at all.” James said, reassuringly. It seemed to somewhat work but you began to hiccup instead and James mentally slapped himself.
“I just wish he had listened and come along. It scares me for what he has to do out there, and I have no idea if he’s safe or not.” You said, shaking your head slightly. “I hate the world, why can’t everyone just be kind and happy? Causing wars and violence does nothing but destroy lives.” You rambled, clearly upset about everything.
James nodded but began to panic when more tears welled up in your eyes, "Please, please, stop crying. You literally have no energy and this is not good for you, please, please stop!" He rambled.
You slowly began to calm down, feeling even more tired and exhausted, with your head throbbing even more. Afterwards, James urged you to eat some more before you were to sleep again. You shot him a tired yet amused smile.
"What?" He asked, feeling self conscious all of a sudden.
"You hate me, remember?"
James suddenly flushed a deep red, mumbling something incoherent.
"What was that?" You asked teasingly.
"I don't hate you."
You arched an eyebrow, "Really? Well you had an odd way of showing it."
He went even more red, if that was possible. "I just- I'm sorry, ok!?"
You smiled gently, "Just because of what happened earlier, doesn't mean you're obligated or owe me something, you know?"
James stuttered, "Why did you behave cold towards me at Hogwarts?" He asked out of the blue, making you narrow your eyes at him.
"Because you made me a target in one of your pranks against Slytherin."
James frowned. Sure he had tried to target you a few times throughout Hogwarts but you had always managed to evade them. Somehow.
"Yeah, obviously you don't remember." You said, your tone tinged with bitterness.
It was your fourth year at Hogwarts, nearing the end as summer break approached. You were already running late for your next class and as you rounded a corner, a huge explosion happened, throwing you against the wall. You cursed and made a move to get to your class but found you were stuck to the wall. You used all your strength but ended up only hitting your head hard on the wall.
"Shit!"
You yelped as something wet and gooey poured onto your head, covering you from head to toe with it.
"Ew, what is this?"
However, before you could get an answer for that, another explosion happened and a huge swamp appeared, going up to your chest. To top it all off, fireworks erupted in the corridor, which finally attracted a crowd as students of nearby classes rushed out.
Two boys led the crowd, their faces looking eager. Although their smiles slightly diminished the moment their eyes landed on you.
"Aw, damn, this is just one snake! The trap was for a bunch of snakes, not just one pathetic Slytherin!" Sirius exclaimed, pointing a finger accusingly in your direction.
James snorted, "But still! Look at her! Such a loser!" The whole crowd laughed. Tears burned your eyes as the laughter echoed off the walls, people pointing and snickering at you. You looked down, embarrassment flooding your whole being. You didn't realize when Professor McGonagall pushed her way through the crowd, nor were you aware of when the swamp vanished or when you were free from the wall. However, tears began to cascade down your face as a sob made its way out of your mouth, when your face broke into hives.
You heard the corridor erupt into shrieks of laughs, all related to your current state. You managed a look up and saw the two boys behind this fiasco, practically rolling around on the ground as they chuckled. You felt hatred for them both. How could they be so cruel? You spun on your heel as the crowd parted for you as you ran and ran until you entered the Slytherin common room. You could see Madam Pomfrey for the reaction to your face after, you just wanted to be alone.
Regulus, who had returned from his class some seconds before you, looked up from his place by the couch, his eyes going wide noticing your state. He stood up and grabbed you by the arm to stop you.
"What happened?" He asked in concern.
"Those stupid boys! I hate them! I hate Potter and Black, they're just plain cruel!"
Regulus' face dawned with realization as a fire burned in his eyes. How dare they hurt you like that?
You shrugged off his hold and ran upstairs to your dormitory, to let out all the pent up emotions. Meanwhile, Regulus' face hardened as he watched you go. He walked out of the common room with determination. No way was someone going to hurt his sister and get away with it.
"And then Regulus hexed us, and kept doing so until Minnie stepped in." James said, completing the story for you instead as the memory came rushing back to him.
"Yeah. The humiliation was horrible and over the summer, I decided to hold a grudge against you two, so began the good ol' rivalry. Later on, as you boys began to change your ways, I felt myself softened but the constant back and forth poking sort of just became our thing." You finished saying, shrugging your shoulders.
"And Remus?"
"What about him?"
"How come you were on good terms with him?"
"Because he was not in on that prank because it was orchestrated by you and your idiotic twin. He felt bad and came to visit me in the Hospital Wing the following day and I appreciated that he was apologizing on behalf of his friends. We became close after that. Oh also," You said, a smirk making its way onto your face, "I only managed to avoid all your pranks meant for me because Remus would tell me beforehand."
A scowl crossed James' face, "That traitor!" However, his expression softened when he heard a chuckle leave your lips.
"Leave poor Remus alone. You lot gave him loads of trouble at school as it was, no need for more."
James grinned mischievously at that before his expression faded into a guilty one.
"I am truly sorry for everything." He sincerely apologized.
You shot him a grateful smile, "Thank you."
James rubbed the back of his neck nervously before extending a hand out. "You want to start over?" He offered.
You looked at him and then his hand. This was an opportunity for the pair of you to forget old enmity and begin afresh. You smiled, clasping his hand.
"Hi, I'm Y/n L/n."
James' shoulders slumped with relief.
He flashed her a bright smile. "Hello, I'm James Potter."
You giggled, "Pleasure to meet you stranger."
"Same here, stranger." He answered, earning another giggle from you, making his heart warm up.
You two had a long way to go but this new opportunity for a better start was something you both would later on be very thankful for.

So I just got back from my doctor and had a really long and annoying day. I wanted to get tested for a staph infection called MSSA (a common staph infection), but my doctor said I was fine if I didn’t have any symptoms.
News flash doctor, you can indeed have no symptoms and still have it.
I tried to talk to them about my GI issues too because I think I might have IBS, but I’m not sure. She said it was caused by stress. I’ve been having stomach issues since I was a baby. If that doesn’t scream IBS then I don’t know what does.
Anyway, just wanted to talk about my annoying appointment. I hope you all are doing well today.

I slowly feel like writing again and currently working on the rewriting of the first chapter of "When shadows turn to darkness", hoping that I can share it with you all, soon.
I'm also eager to put a few ideas of my Special Force AU onto paper (or into my notes app on my phone..😅), as long as I'm still in winter mood.
But I also want to ask you, if there's anything you wish for?
Thoughts on different topics, little drabbles or sketches, an idea you would like to write me about? 😊
Just let me know, I want to talk to you all a little more. 😊

They're Wrong
Tumblr media
Sirius Black x Reader
Summary: In which you are told things that make you believe those hurtful words but Sirius proves you wrong
Warnings: Hurtful/demeaning words/sentences, crying, insecurities, self-doubt, sort of fluff?
A/N: I had been meaning to write this idea for a while so here's this little piece. I hope you all like it. <3
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
You’re useless.
You have always been a failure and will remain a failure.
Why can’t you do anything right? You’re so stupid!
HONK!
You slammed the brakes, realizing you had still kept going when the traffic lights were signalling red. The driver of the car that you had almost crashed into, rolled his window down, his expression furious.
“Are you blind?! You were about to cause an accident! Can’t you see that the lights signal stop for you?!” The man with a burly mustache practically screeched at you, his face all red from the yelling.
You swallowed, feeling your body tremble from shock at what could have happened, before you opened your mouth. Tears pricked your eyes. “I’m so sorry.” You answered, voice shaking, “It’s my fault, I should have been paying attention.”
The man merely snorted and waved a hand, telling you to scramble, which you did. The rest of the drive home, you let your eyes stay transfixed on the road, afraid of repeating the same mistake again. When you pulled up to your house, you numbly made your way in. You dropped your purse on the dining table, heading to the sitting room to turn on the television as a distraction before you headed to the kitchen to prepare some food.
You should have seen this coming. You had always been doubted, and now you regretted having headed out there in the first place today.
You had eggs placed on a pan, sizzling and crackling over the heat. Your boyfriend would be home soon and you knew he would be hungry. However, your mind drifted from the task at hand to what had transpired an hour ago. You stared off into the distance, the demons in your head wreaking havoc.
You didn’t realize when the front door opened, or when footsteps became louder and louder. Hell, you didn’t even realize when your boyfriend was standing right in front of you, his eyes glancing down at the pan and widening. You only came shooting back to reality, when he gently nudged you out of the way.
You blinked a few times, settling back to the present, as you took in the fact that Sirius was back home and by your side. You sniffed the air, feeling an odd odour fill your senses and your eyes widened as you realized what the source of it was. Your eyes darted to the pan on the stove, beginning to reach out for it but Sirius was already on it, taking the pan over to the trash bin, throwing out the now burnt eggs. He tossed the pan in the sink before turning to look at you, taking in your appearance.
If Sirius felt something was off with you before he was certain now. Your face was looking rather pale, your eyes red and puffy, and there was a slight tremble in your whole body. Sirius’ heart clenched at the sight.
He moved towards you, gently placing his hands on your shoulders as he guided you to the couch. He made you sit down before kneeling before you, his hand gently holding yours. Sirius reached out and placed a comforting hand on your face, reassuringly stroking your cheek.
“What’s wrong, love?” He asked softly, his grey orbs peering at you with such genuine love and concern, that before you knew it, the dam broke and your eyes welled up, a sob leaving your lips. You fell onto your knees as you threw yourself at him, burying your face in Sirius’ neck as he placed you on his lap and rubbed your back whilst one hand rested at the back of your head.
You cried and cried and cried. You cried, letting all the pent up emotions out. You cried until there were no more tears left, only an exhaustive and numb feeling in your entire body remained. Throughout it all, Sirius had murmured words of comfort and love, hiding how his heart had shattered from the first second of your breakdown.
You slowly pulled back, rubbing at your face while you stared down at your lap. Sirius placed a finger under your chin, tipping your head slowly up so he could gaze into your y/e/c eyes.
“Love?”
Your lip wobbled as you drew in a breath, “I thought since it’s my day off that I should go to my parents’ house. I know there is a place in their heart that cares but sometimes they can say such things that hurt so bad, and it happened today and I spoke back which resulted in a huge argument.” You told Sirius, who rubbed comforting circles into your back.
Since you were a child there was a lot of pressure on you, however once you found out you were a witch, perhaps then your muggle parents began to distance themselves from you. You wanted their love, their attention, to make them proud, which you were able to from time to time, but most of the time, you were always criticized.
“They told me things like that I am a failure and that I’m stupid and-“ You hiccuped, “They’re right. I’m dumb. I couldn’t even keep an eye on those eggs for two minutes!” You exclaimed. “What do you even see in me, Sirius? I'm not worthy to be with you-“
Sirius placed a finger on your lips as he said, “Don’t you dare say another word.” He sternly directed at you before softening, caressing your cheek. “Love, you’re so amazing, beautiful, smart, talented, and just out of this world. I can’t imagine my life without you. How can you even think so lowly of yourself, my darling?” Sirius said, the pain he felt upon hearing how you thought of yourself reflected at the end.
You shook your head in denial, “But, they’re right-“
“No.” He cut you off, “My love, they are so wrong for saying all those hurtful words to you. You’re an angel, darling. You’re amazing. Your parents are wrong. They’re wrong.” Sirius told you with such genuine love and determination that you let out a watery chuckle, running a hand through your hair.
“I love you, Sirius. Thank you.”
At that, a smile appeared on his lips and he replied, “I love you too, Y/n.”
And you wrapped your arms around him, pulling Sirius in for a short and sweet kiss, pouring all your love and gratitude for him into the small act, making Sirius' heart melt.
════ ⋆★⋆ ════
A/N: By the way, that driver the reader encountered was Vernon Dursley (I don't know why but the mustache part just reminded me of him so yeah, lol)

Hi everyone,
I wanted to give a bit of an update on how I’m feeling after taking a break. I’m feeling better and it’s nice to be posting again. I just hate it when I feel like I’m letting everyone down or being insensitive, which I try to be careful of.
I guess that’s the end of my update. I hope all are doing well and take care. ♥️

Do you ever go back and look at your old comments like… oh hello friend, that’s the first time you said something to me. I knew nothing about you but your words made my whole day. I love you. Please don’t reread that old story. I would have died for you then and I would die for you now. I hope you’re hydrated. I love you.
