[Harry Potter: James] Love at Second Sight

[No Voldemort era | Happy ending | Short, sweet story]

For Wendy Field, it all began in the summer of 1968.

She and her father moved to Godric's Hollow, expecting a peaceful, wonderful new life, until she met the boy next door.

James “Demon Reincarnated” Potter.

The boy who smiled like an angel and played pranks like a demon.

On their first day meeting, he “welcomed” her with a piece of candy that made people float. As Wendy landed, clutching her skirt, she had just one thought:

I hate James Potter. In this life, the next, and for all eternity.

But when James started pursuing another girl, when his eyes were no longer fixed only on pranks and Quidditch, and when Wendy realized she would instinctively search the crowd for that unruly black hair

At last, she understood something.

The boy she had hated for six years had, at some point, become an indispensable part of her life.

It was just a shame she'd realized it too late.

...Or was it not too late after all?

-Tips-

* This story pairs James with someone other than Lily. Don't read if that's not your thing.

* James did pursue Lily before! The heroine also falls for James first, so there's a stretch of bittersweet unrequited love. Please take note if that's a dealbreaker.

* Mutual devotion / happy ending / sweet little story. Enjoy!

* I'll keep the characters as in character as possible.

* The heroine is a Hufflepuff, a gentle little badger who occasionally gets prickly.

* It's a short story, focusing mostly on the heroine's relationship with the male lead. Other events are just briefly mentioned.

Written for love, with limited writing skills. If you're picky, please don't read!
