JAMES POINT OF VIEW By: rickann THE TRUTH ABOUT REMUS
FIRST YEAR-CHAPTER ONE: LEARNING THE TRUTH ABOUT FRIENDS
"James, your friends are here." shouted my mom Zoë Potter. She was a short skinny lady with blond hair and pale blue eyes that always-sparkled w/ life.
"Ok mom, I'll be right there." I shouted to my mother. I was once again trying to tame my mess black hair, but it was no use not even my mom could tame my hair w/ a spell. I ran down my stairs to see my three best friends siting in the t.v. room watching 'Every one Loves Lucy'. In the chair sat Sirius black. He was a tall muscle 11-year-old. He had stormy gray eye w/ very tame black hair, unlike mine, & a smile that girls seem to fall in love with. The only two girls that the smile didn't work on were my other two best friends Lily Evans and Heather Jackson. Lily was a very pretty red head girl that had bright emerald green eyes that every guy that looked into them fell in love, even Sirius & me. Heather on the other hand was a pretty brown head with sea blue eyes that would turn a sea green when she was upset or mad. All four of us were the known as the prankster in are old elementary (grades k-6) school. This was going to be our first year not going to the same school. Me and Sirius were going to a boarding school called Hogwarts, they thought we were going to some other school in America called Oquirrh Mountain Academy for the Boys. Were as the girls were going to a boarding school in Australia called Arrowhead Academy for the Smart Girls of the Year. At least that's what I thought.
"Hay guys what you want to do to day?" I asked as I sat down in front of the t.v. so they couldn't see it.
" I was thinking of going to the mall and hanging out. Me and Heather need to by sum new clothes for school and you two can tell us looks good." Lily said.
"HA! YEAH LIKE YOUR ACTULLY GOING TO TAKE ARE OPINION." Sirius said sarcastically. "There's a better chance of James hair actually staying neat for ten min."
"Hay, we take your opinion into mine." Heather said with an innocent look on her face. " Its not are fault that you don't know what looks good." At this we all brook of into fits of laughter. After about 5 min. of laughing we all agreed to go to the mall anyway.
We walked there, because it was only two blocks away from my house. When we got to the mall me and Sirius started to head to the food court, but the girls dragged us into all the stores first. The girls ended up getting matching bikini's, the only different was Lily's was green & Heather's was see blue to match their eyes, and two new outfits each. Lily got some tight fitting paints that flared out at the bottom w/ a light blue 2-top and platform shoes that made her as tall as me and then a Levi mini skirt w/ a green sparkly shirt and tan boats that went up to her knees. Heather got the same thing but a light pink 2-top, blue sparkly shirt and black boats. Sirius and I actually picked out the 2-tops and mini skirts.
As soon as we left the last store 'Hot Topics' Sirius And I dragged the girls to the food court where we split up and got are food. I got Edo's Teriyaki Chicken rice bowl, Sirius-A Big Mac w/ fries, Lily-a large slice of cheese pizza, and Heather-2 cheese dogs and 4-cherry lemonades for every one from 'Hot Dog on a Stick'. After we got are food we sat down at 'are table' and started to talk about school.
"I still can't believe were going to different countries for school. It's so unfair." Lily started the conversation.
"I know, and just as you & Heather started getting all boy crazy now you have to go to an all girl school in Australia." Sirius said w/ a smirk on his face.
"That is so not true Sirius and you know it." Heather said. At this Lily, Sirius & I cracked up laughing. It was a Well-Known fact that Heather was the biggest flirt in town and total boy crazy. "What so funny."
"You. You-are the bigg-est flirt-in town and-you say your-not boy cr- azy." Lily managed through fits of giggles. At this Heather joined in laughing to. "So what are you stupid gits laughing at now?" asked Snape, a very stuck up snob who had long greasy black hair.
"We were just making a beat at how many times you 'DO' wash your hair a year. So far Lily guessed 4, Heather-6, and me and James agree on once a year." Sirius said in a 1/2 sarcastic 1/2 annoyed voice. At this we all started to laugh again.
"Heather I think the boys won the beat. How much was the beat again; a hay-penny (1/2 a penny)." Lily managed to say. After that Snape walked off back to his friends Malfoy, Goyle and Crabbe.
We finished eating then started to walk back to my house to go swimming. When we got there I gave Sirius a spear pear of swimming trunks and the girls changed into their new swimsuits. Sirius and me were already goofing off in the pool when the girls came out. When I saw them I total forgot that I was holding Sirius under water and just stood there open mouth at the girls. They had not let us see them in their suits at the mall, but they looked dead sexy in them. When Sirius finally manage to get bake up for air he started to yell at me, "WHAT THE HECK WAS THAAAAA..." then he saw what I was looking at and went as dumb stroke as me. At this point the girls were in fits of giggles at the look on are faces. After a second Lily got out a camera & started to take pictures of Sirius and me. After about two pic. We came back to reality and started to chase the girls to get the camera away from them. We caught them easily and through them into the pool and destroyed the camera.
At around six o'clock we got out of the pool & order a large pizza. While we were waiting for the pizza we played 'truth or dare'. We sat in a circle, in this order Me, Heather, Sirius, Lily, it was my turn:
"Truth or Dare?" Lily asked me.
"Truth"
"Who in your opine are the 5 hotties girls from are 6th grade class. Hotties to just hot?"
"Ooooook, let see. Kenzi, Trisha, You, Heather, and Steph. Why'd you want to Know?" I said blushing when I said Lily & Heather's name.
"No reason just wondering." Lily said turning kind of pink like Heather.
"Heather truth or dare?"
"Truth"
"Who's cuter Me or Sirius?"
"HMMMMMMMM, that's a hard one. You both have your own type of cuteness." Heather said. "I don't Known..."
"Ok then what is cute about us?"
"Let's see. James has his mess black hair, pale blue eyes, and even though you cant see his abbess and other muscles they are pretty sexy too. Where as Sirius has a smile to die for, stormy gray eyes and has great muscles too. Of curse this is just what me and Lily here at the sleep over w/ other girls. I personally don't see what's so hot about you t..."
"Ok! We get the point it's my turn." Sirius said sarcastically.
"Ok, truth or dare?"
"Dare"
"I dare you to go and kiss Miss. Bercot on the lips."
"Ok, James will you ring for her."
"Sure, it your funeral pal." I said the last part only loud enough for Lily & Heather to heir. After I called Miss. Bercot the rest of us hid behind the couch. When Miss. Bercot came in Sirius wasted no time. He grabbed her and kissed her hard on the lips before she could say a word. As soon as Sirius pulled away she slap him very heard across the face then turn around and left. When she was out of ear shot we all started to laugh tell Sirius said: "Truth or dare Lil?"
" I Know I regret this, but dare it is."
When she said this Sirius got an evil grin and said, "When the pizza boy comes you have to pay him, wearing your swim suit of curse, and say 'hears your tip' and kiss him on the lips. Got it." "I know I would regret it but what if its a girl or a older guy?" lily asked w/ a groan.
" It won't be I made a request that they seen a teen boy to deliver the pizza." Sirius said w/ an evil smile again; when h saw are faces he said. "My cousin was the one that toke the order and said she send a cute boy over."
Just as he said that the doorbell rang Sirius pushed Lily towards the door and we all hid so we could watch Lily and the pizza guy.
"HI" Lily said flashing the boy a smile.
"H-h-hi did y-you order a p-pizza?" the boy stammered. He was looked like he was only 14 and deferent Shocked to see such a pretty girl answers the door. Lily of curse looked about 13 instead of 11.
"Yeah. How much was it again." "$12.50" Lily handed the boy the money.
" So what's your name." Lily asked she was starting to flirt w/ the boy. They talked for 5 min then he said he had to run; but first asked for her phone number, which she gave him. When he turn to leave she said. "Hey don't forget your tip." He turns around and looked at her. "Here it is." and with that she stood on here tiptoes and kissed him on the lips. When they broke apart Lily shot the door in his face and walked bake to the t.v. room.
For the next hour and a 1/2 we ate, talked and finished up are game. At 8 o'clock the girls went over to Lily's house for a sleep over and Sirius stayed at mine. The next day Sirius and me were going to go to 'Diagon Alley' to buy our school stuff.
The next morning Sirius and me woke up very early in the morning to find my room had been booby trap the night before. (If you seen the new 'Parent Trap' his room looked like the cabin the girls woke up in the morning after they had put all her sisters furniture on the roof at camp. It's the same day they get sent to the installation cabin.) I hoped out of bed and into a puddle of honey and grabbed a cord right next to me, so did Sirius at the same time, all of a sudden tones of glue fell on us.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" we yelled at the same time. My mom came running in my room as fast as she could. When she open the door it turn on my fan that had feathers on it. The next thing I know me and Sirius were looking like giant chickens and my mom, Lily & Heather were laughing and taking as many picture As they could. "YOU TWO WILL PAY FOR THIS!" Sirius and me yelled. When we looked at each other we cracked up laughing at the site of the other person. As we were laughing Lily and Heather made a break for it w/ the cameras.
"Ok boys have fun cleaning this mess up," my mom said. At these words Sirius and me shut up.
"Put mom we didn't make this miss can't you just do a spell PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE." I said with the most asides face possible.
"YAH PLEASSSEEEEEEE, Zoë we all know you're the most kindest person in the world." Sirius said giving her smile and puppy dog eyes she could NEVER say no to. It worked because she toke out her wand and said 'cleanly'. With that every thing was cleaned up but Sirius and me.
"There you go. But I can't help you with the chicken costume. I gave Lily and Heather super glue with an hour lasting spell. Now get ready and well go to Diagon Alley."
"Are you sure it only lasts an hour. We won't have to go to D.A. looking like this? MOM."
"Yes I'm sure of it. Theirs no way Mrs. Black would want Sirius looking like that, or would she?" My mom said acting as if deep in thought. Sirius and me got ready then went down to breakfast. By time we were done the spell had worn off and we went to D.A. by flow powder. Sirius and me got all of are stuff and lots of stuff for pulling pranks w/. When we got home that night Sirius and me planed on how we were going to pay bake the girls for what they did to us.
That night we ended up putting 20 wet start firecrackers in Lily's room. We had it raged so that when they open the door a bucket of water would fall them and the firecrackers; so they all went of in front of them. For the remainder of the summer we pulled at least on prank on some one a night. In the day we would talk, swim, and play ect... Soon it was Sept. first very early in the morning. Sirius Lily, Heather, and me were saying our last good byes. At 8 in the morning Sirius and me loaded into my dad's car w/ are parents and toke off towards Kings Cross. We first went out to eat then went on are way.
"Bye boys you be good understand. We don't want any letters saying that your getting into to trouble." my mom and Sirius mom said to us while giving us a last hug and kiss before leaving onto the train.
"Boys come here a sec. me and Freddie have something for you." Sirius dad shouted to us. We ran over there and they gave Sirius a peace of old parchment. My dad gave me a package. "Don't open or read tell your alone ok."
"Yes, dad." we said to gather then got on the train and started looking for an empty compartment. On the last compartment we open up and asked if we could set to a red and brown head girl, who had their backs to us talking to two boys. The one on the left had mousy brown hair and was kid who wasn't fat but not musically either; he wasn't all that bad looking. On the right sat a very musically boy who had light brown hair and dark brown eyes.
"JAMES, SIRIUS YOUR FINNALY HERE." the red head said at the same time the brown head said. "WHAT THE HECK TOKE YOU SO LONG." As they said this they turn around... and there stood the very last two people I ever thought I would see on this train.
