Disclaimer: I do not own the Harry Potter books, but if the goddess, Joanne Rowling, would like to give them to me they would be perfectly welcome.
Chapter One Astronomey
'How much more of this crap-ola do they expect us to take?' Mandy Koff thought in Astronomey class. Most of the class was trying not to fall asleep, as it was midnight. Mandy did not have to try (very hard) not to fall asleep because she was not even tired.
Mandy Koff was a very pretty girl. She had dark auburn corkscrew curls, porcelin skin, straight teeth, and dull green eyes, with a few freckles sprinkling her nose. But the strangest thing about her apperance was the lightning bolt scar on her right wrist.
She got that scar when she was a baby from one of the worst dark wizards of all time. Lord Voldemort. Her father, the late Joseph (Joe) Koff, had used one of the most powerful counter-curses of all time to save her life. The Power of Love. He had been killed, she had come out of it with nothing but a scar on her wrist. That was why Voldemort went back to England in the first place.
Her boyfriend, Harry Potter, had also come out of one of the Dark Lord's attacks with just a scar, except his scar was on his forehead instead of on his wrist.
Right now Mandy was extreamly confused. She always did very well in Charms, but today her Charms teacher, Proffesor Flitwick, had called her something that confused her very much. He had called her 'Lily', but not just any 'Lily', he had called her 'Lily Evans'. She wasn't sure but she thought that 'Evans' was Harry's Mom's maiden name. Proffesor Flitwick, of course had apoligized, but she still couldn't shake the feeling that they were hiding shake the feeling that they were hiding something from her.
'Harry has been acting weird around me latly (sp?). What if he doesn't like me anymore?!' she thought with worry. 'If he breaks my heart I'll break his jaw. Oh! Who am I kidding? I'd be heartbroken.' A hand suddenly laid down on her shoulder. Mandy jumped about two feet into the air. "Whoa! Settle down, its just me." Mandy turned around to find her best friend, Amy-Lynn Duncan starring (sp?) quizzically down at her. "Class ended about fifteen minutes ago. I thought that you were right behind me." Explained Amy-Lynn while looking down at Mandy weirdly.
Amy-Lynn had dirty blond hair, tan skin, almost perfect teeth (herfront tooth was chipped), and honey brown eyes.
"Oh. Sorry. Guess I just got caught up, heh-heh." Said Mandy feeling kind of embaresssed (sp?).
"Oh, yes! I can see it now. Mandy Koff! Dreamer extrodinair (sp?)! Well unless you wanna be dreaming in detention with Filch, you better dream your booty up to Gryffindor Tower." Replied Amy-Lynn jokingly. Mandy sighed. Her friend could be so weird sometimes.
"Alright. Let's get going." Said Mandy with an evil glint in her eye. "Plus, you have to see your widdle Ronniekins before you go to bed." Amy- Lynn blushed a bright magenta kind of color. Ron Weasley was Amy-Lynn's boyfriend. It was kind of funny because Harry and Ron were best friends, and so were Mandy and Amy-Lynn.
"Come on, let's get back to the tower. And your right, I do have to see Ron." Said Amy-Lynn. Her face had faded now, to just a pale pink color.
"Amy-Lynn?" Asked Mandy in a would be sweet voice.
"What do you want from me now?" Asked Amy-Lynn now sounding half asleep.
"I'm to tired to be granting fa-fa-favors."finished Amy-Lynn, trying to stifile a huge yawn. "It's not a big one. Please do me this teeny-weeny little favor?" Pleaded Mandy, while holding up her finger to show how tiny she meant.
"Ugh! Fine, what do you want me to do now? Said Amy-Lynn throwing her hands up into the air in defeat.
"Geez. Don't have a cow ("moo" said Amy-Lynn), all I want you to do is ask Ron to as Harry if there is anything wrong and if he still likes me." Said Mandy very fast while looking at the floor.
Amy-Lynn gave her a look of disbeilf. "Of course Harry likes you," Amy-Lynn said in a loud whisper, "are you crazy? Pigs would fly, without magic, the day Harry doesn't like you."
"You don't know that. How would you know? Harry is your good friend but he isn't your best friend. I am! Harry is Ron's best friend, so probably only him and Ron know if Harry still likes me." Mandy shouted in a whisper. Amy- Lynn gave her a stunned look. Mandy sighed. "I'm sorry, I don't know what's the matter with me. It just feels like everybody is hiding something from me. And it sucks, too!" Said Mandy while burying her face into her hands.
Just then they approached the Fat Lady's portrait. "Password?" said the fat lady through a thick Scottish accent. "Yuriko flower." Said Amy-Lynn to the Fat Lady. ("Aren't they pretty then?" Said the Fat Lady.) "Listen Mandy, I'll ask Ron for you, but don't worry about it. I'm almost positive that Harry still likes you, okay?" Whispered Amy-Lynn to Mandy as Mandy walked toward the staircase and Amy-Lynn walked over to where Ron was sitting on a couch.
Mandy went upstairs and into the dormitory as quietly as she could (because it was really late) and was about to get into bed when she thought: 'I'll never be able to fall asleep when I am this jumpy... I know! I'm gonna take a bath.' So she grabbed her bath-bag and stuffed in her pajamas and a towel and went downstairs to get to the girls bath.
When she got down stairs she found Ron and Amy-Lynn on the couch not talking.but making out. Mandy smiled. She liked seeing her friend this happy. Amy-Lynn was never this happy at Oz. They were so caught up with each other that they didn't even notice when Mandy walked by them or when she opened or closed the door to the girls bath. The girls' bath was painted a light blue with white trimming and the floors were charmed to sparkle bright white. There were dozens of little shower/bathtub thingies, all in straight lines vertically and horizontally. They were all the same except for the shower curtains. The girls had to bring their own shower curtains or go without. Mandy's shower curtain had different kinds of lilies on it as lilies were her favorite kind of flowers.
Mandy turned on the faucet to her tub to just the right tempature and while it was running took off her cloths and sank into the bath. She just relaxed for a few minutes before starting to think. She thought of al sorts of stuff. Harry, Amy-Lynn, her mom, and shower curtains. Why couldn't the school provide shower curtains for them? Couldn't they just conjure some, or something?
When she was done she threw on her pajamas and wrung out her hair. Then she packed up her bathroom things and slipped on her dressing gown and slippers. With that done she walked out of the girls' bath. When she got out of the girls' bath she got the strangest feeling that she was being watched.
'Good thing I have my wand in my pocket.' She thought. That thought made her feel a little more safe, but she still couldn't shake the feeling that she was being watched. She decided that the feeling was her imagination and tried to forget it.
She looked over toward the couch were Ron and Amy-Lynn were before. They were still there! Except they were all snuggled together asleep. 'Awww. They look so cute together.' Thought Mandy while giving her friends one of her so called 'perfect smiles'.
"They look cute together, don't they?" Said a voice from behind Mandy. She jumped about three feet into the air. When she finally came back to her senses {about two milliseconds later}, she whipped out her wand and spun around ready to attack.
Her 'attacker' was her boyfriend, Harry Potter. She lowered her wand. "What's the big deal?! You nearly scared me to death!" Said Mandy sounding extreamly pissed off.
"Shush! I'm sorry. I just couldn't resist." Said Harry while giving her that cute little lopsided grin. Then he started to laugh lightly. Mandy was confused.
"What's so funny?" Said Mandy, puzzled.
"I like your pajamas." Said Harry in between laughs. Mandy had on a white pair of button-up satin pajamas with blue, green, and purple bubbles on it and was wearing slippers that matched.
She held her head up proudly and said: "Thank you. These are my favorites." Then they both burst out laughing. "Hey, what are you doing out here anyway? Its really late ya know." Said Mandy knowingly. Harry laughed {again}.
"Number one, I was looking for you. Number two, I could ask you the same thing." Said Harry while crossing his arms over his chest, proud that he had such a clever answer. Mandy giggled. Harry's smile faded a little. "Whats so funny? What did I say??" Asked Harry sounding mildly confused.
Mandy smiled just ever so sweetly at him. "You're so cute." Said Mandy. Then she got up on her tiptoes {she had to because she was a head shorter than him} and kissed him on the cheek. "I'm going to bed." Said Mandy. She sighed. "But I'm too tired to climb all the way up to my dorm." Pouted Mandy.
Harry smiled knowingly. "Want me to carry you?" Asked Harry in a voice that was just a little too innocent. Mandy smiled. Her boyfriend could be so sweet sometimes. She really would have liked a ride up to her dorm, but she woulndn't make him do that. "I don't think you could-" Mandy got cut off by Harry picking her up, "pick me up." She finished.
"You are as lite as a feather." Said Harry smiling. "Um.Harry.uh.what about my bag?" Asked Mandy when they were almost to the top to the spiral stair- case.
"Oh. I forgot that. Accio, bathbag!" Murmered Harry under his breath. Mandy's bath bag came flying up the stairs. It followed them the rest of the way up the stairs. Harry magically opened the door. He gently set Mandy down on the bed and pulled the covers over her body. Then thinking that Mandy was asleep, beant down, kissed her on the forehead, and said: "Goodnight., my lovely flower." Then he walked out of the door.
'Hmmm.that's odd,' thought Mandy, trying to keep awake, but she gave in. 'I'll ask him in the morning.,' she thought while drifting off to sleep.
