"Sorry Professor McGonagall." Kiara muttered quietly and went back to taking notes. The stern woman glared one last time and went back to teaching her complicated lesson. Kiara sighed knowing she'd have to stop day dreaming about her love and start paying attention to her school work.
"Pss…." Kiara heard someone whisper beside her. She slowly turned to see her best friends, Olivya, grinning face. "You should start paying attention more. And stop paying so much attention on Re -" She whispered with a face much like McGonagall's.
"Shut it." Kiara muttered under her breath to her. Olivya snickered. She flipped her long, brown, straight hair back and began to take notes before they both go into trouble. Her questionable eye coloured eyes looked up at the board and wrote down what was there. The bell the dismissed the class rang and everyone scurried out of the classroom. Kiara put her books and notes into her messenger bag and her and Olivya ran out of the classroom before McGonagall could yell at them for today's performance in class.
As they walked, talking quietly, people began to yell nasty things. They glared at the person who started it all. Though, this wasn't the first time this has happened. The two weren't exactly - popular. They were the social outcast. It started with Kiara. Kiara, whom was only nice to people who she liked - which wasn't very many - got the reputation of being a bitch. Kiara didn't mind, but Olivya disliked the fact that she didn't have many friends and after much persistence from Olivya's side, they became friends - dragging Olivya into the unpopular side.
"I'm going to go to Care of Magical Creatures now ok Kiara?" Olivya asked.
"Ok, I'll see you later, good bye!" Kiara told her as Olivya walked out the door. Kiara continued down the hall to the Gryffindor common room.
"Password?" The portrait asked.
"Midnight Lilies." Kiara murmured. The portrait, also called "The Fat Lady" opened for her. Kiara sighed as some poor first years, who had heard about her no doubt, hurried away from her. As if she'd turned them all to toads if they got to near.
"Relax, I have nothing against you." She told them quietly. They still looked quite frightened of her. "I promise."
The bravest one, she suspected, nodded sarcastically. "Sure, and that's why you're so cruel and mean!"
She rolled her deep green eyes. "I'm not, I just am to people I don't like - which is mostly everyone. But that's until they prove to be disliked."
They looked confused.
"Never mind." She muttered, waving her hand.
The most timid looking one in the way back nodded. "I know what you mean." The rest of the group glared at the tiny girl and stomped away. She looked as if she was on the brink of tears and hated herself for saying that.
"Thanks," Kiara told her. She got out what homework she had and began to work. "But you didn't have to do that. I'm used to it."
The little girl nodded her amber hair.
"What's your name?" Kiara asked interested.
"Juliana."
"Can I call you Julie or Julia?" Kiara asked nicely. Again the little girl nodded. "Cool. Wanna sit with me?"
"Um - sure." She said quietly. "What are you doing?"
"Homework, transfiguration. It's my favourite subject. Though McGonagall probably doesn't know that. I'm always spacing off in her class." Kiara said with a hint of laughter in her voice. Juliana laughed.
"I do that often too." Juliana muttered. Kiara smiled. Just then, two guys busted through the door. Kiara frowned, knowing all to well who they were.
"Remus! Peter!" One of them said. He was the good looking one. Well they were all good looking except for Peter, but that one was the one that flaunted it. He was the resident skank. He had black hair that fell in just the right places, or so Kiara had heard. His black eyes were always glinting, especially when he was torturing his favourite subject - Snape. Kiara despised that one, his name was Sirius Black. He thought he knew...but he didn't.
The one next to Sirius was James Potter. James also had black hair - but it constantly looked as if he had just rolled out of bed. Kiara saw him brush his hair once, but even after he brushed it - it was still unruly. He had hazel eyes, but the only time when it was glinting was when 'perfect' Lily Evans was in the room. But she's a whole other story. Back to James, he was the head boy, HEAD BOY! How does the head of one of the most rambunctious groups get to be head boy? I think Dumbledore's on drugs. Anyway, he too also loved to torment Snape. Kiara loved to think that some day - Snape was going to get them back, whether it was through them - or their children.
"Hullo James, Sirius." Remus answered. Kiara sighed at the sound of his voice. Olivya was the only once who knew this, but Kiara had a crush on him. A huge one. Ever since second year, when Kiara fell down the stairs and he caught her. Remus Lupin was easily the tallest one of the group, coming in at a good 190 something centimetres. His sandy blond hair was always falling into his grey eyes. He was a prefect. Model student - if it wasn't for the fact that he was also part of the rambunctious group that called themselves the Marauders. Also, when James and Sirius are persecuting Snape, he does nothing but read. He doesn't laugh - but he doesn't stop it either. Which makes me believe he has very little self-esteem, to think that if he stops it, James, Sirius and Peter - his best friends will leave him?
Kiara shook her head.
"Hey guys!" Peter squeaked. Kiara smiled. Peter was seemed so innocent. Peter had watery-blue eyes and blond hair. He was kinda like pudding...not to be mean or anything. He always tagged around with the other three. There wasn't that much to say about Peter, he had to be a good person, why else would the rest hang out with him, but there was something about him that burst Kiara's bubble. Maybe it was the fact that he always seemed to stay with the person who was the most powerful and would protect him. Kiara just hid her dislike of him for the mere fact that he was friends with Remus.
They all turned to look at Peter and smiled. Just then, 3 girls stormed in. One of them, Shauna Hartford, darted over to Sirius and slapped him.
"Shauna…what was that for?" Sirius asked, holding his cheek.
"Um, Gari is what that was for!" Shauna yelled at him. Kiara shook her head. She leaned over to Julie.
"She acts as if Sirius is one of the most commitment loving person." Kiara whispered in her ear. Julie laughed.
"What are you laughing at Lucas?" Shauna yelled at Julie.
"Hey! Why don't you shut up? It's not her fault that you're an idiot!" Kiara yelled at Shauna.
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me! You act as if Sirius is the most commitment loving person and that it's this huge surprise that he cheated on you!" Shauna blinked.
"HOW DARE YOU!" She yelled at Kiara. She slapped Kiara.
"Oh yes, you're the bigger person now aren't you, just go upstairs." Kiara taunted. Shauna glared and dashed upstairs. The rest of her group, except for Lily, giggled a little.
"Thank you, we were trying to tell her that he was a jerk." Jessica told Kiara.
"Um, I'm standing right here!" Sirius said. Kiara, Lily, Jessica and Jade nodded.
"Whatever, she didn't need to yell at Julia, she's just a first year."
"But she was laughing at Shauna."
"So? It was because I was making fun of her." They glared at her and followed Shauna's suit. Kiara shook her head.
"Idiots…all of them." Then Kiara froze as she thought of something.
