Drabble: Secret Keeper
Aug. 2nd, 2008 09:41 amTitle: Secret Keeper
Fandom: Harry Potter
Character: James
Word Count: 100
Written for: myself, about a million years ago (seriously, it was written on my previous computer) but I never got it down to 100 words until now, so it was never posted until now.
Let me be your Secret Keeper.
Dumbledore’s words echo in James’ head.
What wasn’t said:
Let me be your Secret Keeper; I don’t trust your friends.
Let me be your Secret Keeper; I think Sirius is a traitor.
If it were just himself, James wouldn't hesitate. But Lily and Harry—James is not so cavalier with their lives.
Voldemort takes everything. He sets neighbour against neighbour, father against son, wife against husband. If James can’t trust his friends, Voldemort has already won.
James Potter trusts his friends.
In all the world, this is the one thing he will never doubt.
