Before you say anything, yes, I know, this chapter is extremely short, but I just wanted to get it out of the way. I'll try to get the next chapter up by Monday, but no promises. Plus, I've caught a pretty bad cold, so I might be skipping school, which will give me time to write :D But no promises.

ALSO, I said last time that I got the role of Lady Montague, but there was a recast, and now I'm playing Tybalt :D Yeeey! I get killed by Romeo! EXCITING!

Blue Luver5000 – Whoops. Got to change that :P

lilirox187 – Thank you :D And I'll try not to be like whoever is writing that story you're waiting for :)

And thanks to everyone else who reviewed :D

The Five Marauders, Year Three

Chapter 10

Sirius POV

"Where on earth is that girl!"

Twenty minutes. She's already TWENTY MINUTES late! We've been preparing the prank for weeks, and now she just suddenly decides not to show up when we most need her.

"Sirius! Calm down! Maybe something important is holding her up," Remus tried to calm me.

"What if Blyth did something?" James asked.

That was exactly what I was worried about, but hearing it actually said out loud snapped something inside me. I stopped pacing, and started making my way out of the Room of Requirement.

A hand grabbed my arm. I looked at Remus, and he removed his hand, but didn't stop looking worried.

"Where are you going?" He asked.

"To find that little fucker and find out what he did to Jay," I growled.

"What if it wasn't him?" Peter squeaked.

"Only one way to find out," Said James, and left the room, with me close behind and Remus and Peter following.

"OY BLYTH!" James yelled across the crowded corridor after a few minutes of intense serching.

Heads turned our way, one of those heads belonging to the guy I despised so much.

"May I help you Potter?" Blyth asked with a tone that indicated that helping us would be the last thing he'd do.

"Where's Jamie?" I asked with no politeness.

Blyth raised an eyebrow. "You don't know?"

"What don't we know?" Remus asked.

Blyth smirked at our obliviousness, and I wanted to do nothing less then curse that bloody smirk off.

"I've just been to visit her. In a bad state she is. Malfoy and the others did her bad this time. Good job Longbottom made it to the Hospital Wing with her in time."

The moment 'Hospital Wing' was said, the four of us shot off down the corridor, with people leaping out of our way, not wanting to get in the way of an enraged and worried marauder.

Peter POV

'Why is it always you?'

That was the exact thought that crossed my mind every time I looked at Jamie.

When we first arrived in the Hospital Wing, much to James' pleasure Evans was there. As well as, Much to both James' and Sirius' displeasure, was Snivellus.

At first my two friends had a little fight with the bat, but as soon as Evans stepped in and with a sorrowful voice told us of Jamie's condition, they stopped.

Remus, being the only one out of us that Lily didn't hate (Maybe apart from me…) asked her to tell them what happened.

She told us about meeting her in Hogsmeade, walking to Hogwarts along with Snape, being ambushed the four Slytherins and the fight that came after Malfoy called Evans a mudblood. I mentally shuddered at the thought of that word. I honestly wouldn't care about using it. It's more what the guys and Jay would do if I did.

Evans and the Slimy git left after a while, leaving us alone with our best friend.

"Look in her eyes. They make her look so dead," Sirius whispered with a sorrow-full voice, and traced her face with his fingers.

"You know she can hear you. And feel you," James said.

"Your lovely Lilikins already informed me of that," Said Sirius, a slight smirk playing on his lips.

"So what are we going to do about the prank?"

All heads snapped to Remus, who was the one who spoke.

"Are you joking?" James and Sirius asked at the same time.

"Your best friend has just been attacked!" Sirius scandalized.

"And said best friend will strangle all four of us the moment she comes out of her 'comma' if our two weeks of preparation go to waste," Remus reasoned.

I nodded in agreement, but the guys didn't seem to notice.

James and Sirius seemed to think for a while, before finally giving in.

"Fine. We'll go and finish off the prank as planned. Make sure you look after Jamie while we're gone," James said, the final sentence directed at me.

Reluctantly, my three friends left me alone with the girl. I've already done all I had to do in the prank, and the rest was left for the better wizards.

I sat down beside my girl friend and took her hand in mine, like Remus had previously. For a second the hospital was silent, until I remembered how much Jamie hates silence.

"Soo… Hey? Wow this is awkward," I muttered, stroking my friend's hand with my thumb, "I wonder if you can really hear me. I hope you do, because if not then I probably look like an idiot sitting here and talking to you."

I laughed nervously. I really did feel awkward. Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey walked in right after I said those words.

"So do you know how to bring her back ma'am?" I asked the medi-witch.

"Of course I do," She said, taking a small vial from behind her back, "This is the Wiggenweld Potion."

"Wiggenweld Potion. Isn't that the same potion that revives people who have taken the Draught of Living Death?" I asked, thinking back to Jamie's and Snape's potions presentation two years ago.

"The same one."

"But doesn't someone have to kiss her with the potion on their lips to make her come back?"

"No. It was a common belief many years ago, but now it is common knowledge that the potion will work the same, if not better, when the victim actually drinks the potion," The medi-witch explained.

'So Snape lied when he said Sirius would need to kiss Jamie all those years ago. Why?'

I helped Madam Pomfrey put Jamie into a sitting position, before she literally poured the contents of the small vial down Jamie's throat.

Jamie POV

The moment the potion slid down my throat, a violent cough attack shook my body.

"Man I preferred it when Sirius kissed me," I realised what I was saying way too late. I looked at Peter who had raised eyebrows, and then at Poppy, who was smirking slightly.

"What? That thing tastes like shit!" I exclaimed.

"LANGUAGE MISS WHITE!" Poppy suddenly exclaimed.

"Merlin! Sorry Poppy, no need to yell."

I jumped out of bed, amidst Poppy's protests.

"Come on Pete," I said grabbing said boy's hand, "The others will want to know I'm awake. That, plus I need to kick a certain Slytherin arse," I added dangerously.

I was just wondering… I guess that most of you, if not everyone, assumed that I was going to pair Jamie with Sirius by the end of the story. Would you like that to happen, or would you rather have me pair her with someone else? Mind you, I have no idea whether I should pair her with him, and in fact, !SPOILER ALERT! I don't really think I will.

So what are your thoughts? Simie Yes or Simie No?
