For what felt like the 100th time tonight, I turned over in my bed once more. In the last couple of months I had started to find this common. Whenever I closed my eyes, the Dark Lord taunted my visions. Dead bodies of friends and families lying at his feet. Shivers ran up my spine. Plus it was also really cold. My thoughts wondered as ones thoughts do when laying in bed. At first my brain was running over a conversation Alice and I had today, We'd fallen into a small argument (nothing serious) and I had now, around five hours later, had come up with about six ways I could've used to prove my point. Why couldn't my brain have worked like that then?

As my thoughts kept straying they stumbled across a rather touchy subject. James Potter. Now I know we have our history and even though recently we had become good friends (another body I now see at Voldemort's feet). But along with all of that, I wasn't going to lie to myself anymore. I sort of, well... fancy James Potter? Okay, I admitted it to myself. Happy now subconscious?

So why? subconscious, may you ask I have taken a sudden liking to the boy or rather man now, I had turned down for years. Well aside from the obvious fact he'd matured and all that. I couldn't help but admire how he and his friends walked around the castle, still joking as always with everything going on. I feel like I could really use a good joke these days. Also i've started to notice how attractive he looks but lets not get into that. Honestly I'm glad I finally admitted that because i've felt like this for nearly two months now. Yes I know I took my time subconscious. Shut up.

As the night went on, I grew more restless and was constantly in the hypnotic stage of being half sleep. It was like dreaming but I was still awake. Images of voldemort flooded through my eyes, James laughing, Alice holding hands with Frank. It was like a consistent roll of pictures flashing alongside others in a disturbing way through my brain. Finally I had had enough. I jumped out of bed and started walking. My brain was pretty logged and I wasn't entirely sure where I was going.

I heard my own feet padding down the hall of the heads dormitories, I felt like the sleep deprive had over took me. I found myself outside the room of James's room. Unsure of what to do next I paused by the door for a moment before slipping in. James was deeply asleep. His lips slightly parted as he breathed. 'Sort of cute actually'.
'Shut up subconscious' I thought while waking her head lightly.

Without thinking I felt myself slide into James's bed. James currently had his back turned to me so I snuggled up in his warm blankets. The scent of James apparent. Of course, I would have to leave before sunrise but for now I was content. And honestly, a little sleepy. 'You cannot fall asleep' I managed to whisper weakly. That would be rather awkward in the morning. Suddenly I felt movement next to me, at first I was worried that James had woken up. But he just turned over. Now facing me. I was too busy staring at his face to notice he was moving his arm. I felt him drape it around my waist and pull me closer. My head was right near his heart. Okay so I snuggled into him maybe just a little. But I was so content in his arms and the restless and cold half sleep was noting compared to the deep and restful sleep I was falling into. Yep, that's right, I fell asleep. Smart one, I know.

{I know this one is quite short but the next half is sort of long and yeah :). Happy New Years! Comment what you think.}
