James and your friends hadn’t seen you all day and for him it was getting really concerning. Mainly due to you always clinging to his side like a puppy which he secretly loved more than anything.

He began to search for you, excusing himself from his friends in the common room and scouting the usual spots where you may hide.

After a while of avoiding teachers and bumping into people, he found you at the bottom staircase leading to divination with a crumpled letter on the floor while hiding your face in your arms, that rest on you knees.

“Hey there my little doe.” He whispers, sitting down next to you and brushing some of your hair back.
