Chapter 174 Anxiety
Ever since James kissed Alaiya, he would always look in Alaiya's direction and fall into deep thought, sometimes frowning, sometimes scratching his ears, sometimes smiling more and more, and sometimes looking sad, which made Lily Evans, who had been watching him, very worried.
Lily quietly found Sirius, who was closest to James, to ask about the situation, but did not get any useful information. Sirius scratched the back of his head helplessly and said, "I also want to ask you, do you know that guy calls Alaiya and Peter's name every night before going to sleep. I thought he was in love with - cough cough cough, and was obsessed."
"Does Peter know about this?" Lily didn't know why, but after Peter became "Alaiya", she felt that Peter was an adorable girl more and more. There was no sense of incongruity or awkwardness at all. So she had a feeling that the current Peter might no longer be the same person he used to be. So Lily became a little wary of Alaiya.
Therefore, Lily did not communicate with Alaia about many things, but chose to talk to Sirius, because she was worried that Alaia was a girl and was sent by the Dark Lord!
After being reminded by Lily's words, Sirius suddenly had an idea. He compared them carefully in his mind and realized that Alayya was just like Peter, both were cute and naive. Peter looked like a girl since he was very young.
Maybe Lily didn't know Peter well enough and didn't understand the real Peter. But Sirius had full trust in Peter. Peter was Alayya and Alayya was Peter. They could not be replaced. He had absolute confidence in this.
So Sirius didn't take Lily's advice to heart, but focused more on why James had been acting weird towards Peter recently. He was extremely worried that Peter would be favored by James, so he began to deliberately give Lily some advice.
"How about you confess?" In Sirius's opinion, Lily's love for James was obvious, and as a Gryffindor warrior, he would not be afraid to face his heart, so it was normal for him to confess. "Maybe if you confess, it will divert the shock of James' kiss. If there is something more exciting, James will not think about the kiss anymore!"
"You are right, Sirius. You are worthy of being the strategist of the four!" Lily was enlightened. She had planned to confess her feelings before she became a transfer student, but she missed the opportunity. Now that James is troubled, she can do something more "exciting" to stop him from focusing on the kiss!
"Isn't that great! Sirius! I'll get ready now. Keep it a secret for James, okay?" Lily winked playfully, full of energy. Sirius once again thought of Alaia. If she winked at him like that, he would be so happy that he would die, right?
James, who was about to make a grand confession, was still immersed in Lionsport's reply. James was still waiting for his uncle's guidance, but the opening line was a blow: "You mean you felt something strange in your heart after kissing Peter? God, I thought you fell in love with Peter and were ready to chase him. Are you as slow as me?"
"???" James thought back to the "love-hate relationship" between his uncle and his mortal enemy Professor Dick. Did his uncle mean that he was just like him, in love with Peter without knowing it? Peter had liked him for a long time, but he didn't realize it? (It was the opposite)
James realized it later and couldn't help but slap himself to calm himself down. He didn't scream while holding his uncle's letter and wake up Sirius who was standing beside him. He actually likes men?
James couldn't accept this for the time being, so he became confused in the recent period. Sometimes he wanted to laugh when he thought of Peter's naivety, but he became troubled and frowned when he thought that Peter liked him, and he became anxious and restless when he thought that he might like men.
Recently, he even started to avoid Peter. Whenever Peter appeared, he would take the initiative to sit as far away from him as possible. Even when walking with Lily and Sirius, he would sit as far away from Alaia as possible.
His strange behavior surprised Lily, but when she thought about the plan she was about to implement, she was embarrassed to talk to James more, for fear that she would let the cat out of the bag.
Sirius was of course happy to see this happen. James avoided Alaia so that he had more opportunities to stay by Alaia's side and become the person she cared about most. While Remus and Newt were away, and now James was no longer around Alaia, Sirius felt happy every day.
But now Lily Evans seems to have "replaced" James's position, sticking to Alayya every day, making him a little jealous. It turns out that Lily has been seeking help from her friends for James' confession. Although she remained wary of Alayya, Alayya can indeed give her very good ideas and opinions.
And Alaiya really tried her best to help her confess to James successfully, even to the point of forgetting to eat and sleep.
Alayya was indeed very concerned about this matter. In order to prevent Harry Potter from disappearing from this world and future events from being hindered, Alayya tried very hard to help Lily confess to James.
Since she asked Sirius to help them divert James' attention and prevent him from discovering his confession, Alaia did not realize that James was hiding from her and thought that Sirius had done a great job.
In this way, Alayya, accompanied by Sirius every day, worked hard to design confession activities with Lily and made a whole flower arch by herself. The position of each flower was carefully designed by her, and even the watering and fertilization were precise to milliliters, hoping that this magic rose arch would grow into the most beautiful appearance.
James was very lonely. Apart from knowing a little about Alaia's dynamics through Sirius, he could only secretly look at Peter and Lily and worry alone. Could it be that Lily fell in love with Peter? James was panicked and a little overwhelmed.
This was not what he wanted to see, but what made him even more at a loss was the confession ceremony that followed.
