James is happy, the happiest I've ever seen him. He has this glow to him every time Lily is even in sight. It's cute really. They are practically inseparable. I only get to talk to Lily half as much as I use to but that's ok because I did kind of miss the Marauders. Especially Remus. We have yet to finish our conversation because we haven't had much chance to be alone. The one time we were Sirius came in, mumbling something about "that fucking whore". It had to be Samantha.

"You ok Padfoot?" Remus asked. This set Sirius off. He yelled about how she dumped him, he wouldn't give a reason as to why she did. He kept going on about her being a whore and a bitch. I was a little scared. He never did this. Especially when a girlfriend was involved.

When he was done he said he was going to bed. He walked up to his dorm and me and Remus just looked at each other.

"What just happened?" I asked, confused.

"I have no idea, I'm going to try to talk to him. I'll see you tomorrow," He said and followed Sirius. I sat there for a minute and then got up. Outside the portrait I found James and Lily making out. I just shook my head and smiled.Remus later told me Sirius wouldn't tell him anything. He seemed almost embarrassed. True he had always been the dumpee but It still didn't make any sense.

She was laughing at Sirius. Sirius said he didn't care but I think he was trying to convince himself. He wasn't use to rejection, that much was obvious. I don't think he cared so much about the girl, it was just the way she could so easily move on.I heard a rumor that she used him. For what I never heard. I didn't share this but Sirius found out anyways. He was pissed. We all were pissed. We were the Marauder's, we did what we did best. Sweet sweet revenge.

We targeted the seventh year Hufflepuff girls. One night Sirius sat outside the Hufflepuff common room with the invisible clock on. As soon as he got the password he returned to The Room Of Requirements. There we planned the pranks of all pranks. Do you know what the sweetest part of this was? It was going to be on Annabel. She won't be able to say I never did anything for her after this.

"Potter, Black, Williams, Lupin and Pettigrew my office now!" McGonagall yelled. We smiled at each other proudly and followed her with dignity. Many people applauded, some booed, obviously they were in Hufflepuff. Did they have no sense of humor?

When we got to her office we sat down and just smiled at her innocently.

"Don't give me that look, you know what you did was wrong."I almost laughed.

"Was it McGonagall? I thought they deserved it," Sirius said, grinning. She sighed.

"Detention for a week and no Hogsmeade," She said getting to the point. The detention was fine but no Hogsmeade?

"That's not fair!" James yelled.

"It seems fair to me, now go to your classes."We left without a word.

"That prank was genius!" Someone said as we left her office.

"Thank you, ya know it's all in a days work…" Sirius said. We laughed, almost forgetting our punishment.We took our punishments and somehow still managed to get additional detentions as well. Hufflepuff's would glare at us whenever they passed us. We ignored them and talked about their immaturity.I now understood that look Annabel was giving me. She knew, of course she did. She was probably the master mind of the plan. Well it did backfire on them so I'm thinking they may regret it. She was now giving me that hateful look again. Thank God.

As the week went on something was stirring in the Hufflepuff's minds. James was the first to suggest it, then we all paid attention. We saw how secretive they were being, especially the seventh year girls. I can imagine they'd want revenge. We figured it'd be before Christmas break so we waited.

Wednesday: nothing

Thursday: nothing

Friday was already half way gone and nothing was happening. A dead give away that something was going to happen was the look Annabel gave me. It was smug and devious. Hell was coming and it just might be in a bigger dose. We wouldn't want them to baby us anyways.We got sick of the waiting so we sent a letter to who we assumed was the leader. It was a letter challenging them to please hurry up and we sighed it The Marauder's. We were very disappointed to hear nothing back. I suggested that they chickened out but really they were waiting until we didn't see it coming and they'd hit us where it hurt. They had one advantage: Annabel. She use to know me, something's were still the same. She could hurt me.

The worst came Saturday morning. This was also the day of the Hogsmeade visit but that's besides the point. I was walking down for breakfast with the Marauders when I heard it.

"And then you know what he said?" Samantha's voice rang from inside a classroom. At this we stopped and quickly found a place to hide so they wouldn't see us.

"What?" Annabel's voice said quieter.

"He didn't want to lose his virginity to someone he barely even liked. Yes Sirius Black is a virgin."

"Does he believe in true love?"

"God yes, he started to talk about how he wanted to find someone he truly loved so it'd really be special." Her voice sounded disapproving.

"That's so sweet."

"No, it's not sweet. Sex isn't about love."

"Sam you know that's not true."

"Don't tell me what I know."

"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed…"

"Don't patronize me, Annabel."

"You are so touchy today! Sometimes I can't stand you.""

You know that's a lie." She paused and started again.

"You know what I've always found funny?"

"Hmm…" She sounded bored.

"Marie being friends with the Marauder's. Their like her only friends."

"What about Lily Evans?"

"Well she's dating James Potter so that's probably the only reason, I mean who in their right minds would want to be friends with that?" That sounded familiar. Oh yeah I had said something like that about her.

"Sam don't talk about my sister like that." Annabel almost sounded defensive.

"What do you think they do? I mean her and Remus have to be shagging. You know how they are. Maybe her and James are secretly doing the same thing." She giggled evilly.

"No, James has always been in love with Lily, everyone knows that."

"They could act around everyone else."

"Whatever Sam…"

"Annabel do you not agree with any of this?"

"What does it matter? You'd get after me anyways."

"And you tell me I'm being touchy." Annabel remained quiet.

"You know Remus could do better. I know about 5 girls who like him. Maybe I could set them up. Maybe Sirius is secretly in love with Marie, maybe they fight over her."

"I'm sure…"

"Not that that would make any sense. I mean look at her! I can't believe you're even related. You're way prettier, not that she's pretty."

"Don't."

"You know it's true. Look in the mirror. Anyways I don't see how or why they even continue to be her friend. They'd be better off without her."

"Maybe they like her."

"Maybe she's just a good shag."

"There's more to life than sex!" Annabel yelled.

"Nu ah. That's the only way to live."

"God you're so…"

"Right? I know. Maybe Marie does a bunch of kinky stuff. You know with whip cream and hand cuffs."

"Can we stop talking about this?" At least she's fighting for me. Kind of.

"No, I like this conversation." Annabel sighed.

"Maybe…" I couldn't take it anymore.

I opened the door and walked away. Tears were threatening to come. I completely ignored my friends pleas and locked the door to The Room Of Requirements. I stayed there all day, crying my eyes out. I didn't want anyone to see me like this. I wanted to just die right there. Please kill me now.I knew I was ugly, I didn't need people telling me this but it hurt none the less. How could someone who didn't even know me hate me so much? What did I ever do? The sorting hat made the mistake, not me but I keep getting fucked because of it. If there is a God in this world he hates me. Hell did come, just in a bigger does than I anticipated.
