you already know what is mine and whats not so lets skip that part.Um........I don't know what to say.
Thank you for the two people that reviewed(two people,how pathetic am I?).R/R!

"Potter,Remus."McGonagall barked.Remus jumped up from his seat and ran to the hat.He picked it
up,dropped it on his head and sat down.The hat imediately yelled "GRYFFINDOR!"and we all cheered.
Remus took the hat off,took a bow,and ran to sit down beside James.
"Potter,Sirius."
"I really don't see the point in even bothering with sorting hat for these two.They are Gryffindor all the way."
I whispered to James.He shrugged.I looked up at the teachers table.Dumbledore was all smiles and Snape
appeared to be glad to have more Potters to torture.
"Look at Snape's face."Sky whispered in my ear."He looks almost happy."I stifled a giggle.
"That's a first."I whispered back,just as the hat cried "GRYFFINDOR!".Our table broke into applause again
as Sirius made his way to our table.He sat down beside Lily and she pounced on him.
"Oh,I'm so glad you're in my house!I am so happy happy happy happy happy!!!!!"Lily cried,hugging him.
"Gerroff me,Lily!"Sirius cried,trying to push her away.She continued to hug him tightly."TOO MUCH LOVE!TOO
MUCH LOVE"Sirius finally broke free of his sister and ran to the empty seat beside me.
"Are you okay,Sirius?"I asked.He looked around me to make sure Lily hadn't followed him and he nodded.
"Can I have a hug then?"I asked.Sirius laughed and gave me a hug.
"Malfoy,Hallie."I froze,as did Sky and James.We were all anxious to find out where Hallie would end up.Hallie,
looking extremely nervous,got up and walked to the hat.She put it on her head and sat down.
"Gryffindor,Gryffindor,Gryffindor."Sky and I whispered,our hands clapsed together,eyes shut,anticipating.
"GRYFFINDOR!"the hat cried.I opened my eyes and looked at Sky.He was beaming.Hallie pulled the hat off and
ran to our table.Sky jumped up and hugged her,swinging her around.She giggled.When he put nher down I
hugged her just as tightly.Then James got up and hugged her.I looked at Ebony.She was glaring in our direction.
I grinned and waved.She turned red with anger and turned away.I laughed.McGonagall cleared her throat loudly.
"Excuse me,but would you four kindly sit down so we can finish the sorting?"she asked.I looked at James and Sky
and we all sat down.
"Newcastle,Samuel."
"This should be fun.If Lizzie ends up in our house we will have a nice square figure to torture Snape with."Sirius said,
rubbing his palms together.
"Sirius,I don't want you corrupting my baby sister."I said.Sirius grinned wickedly.
"Weasley,Lizzie."Lizzie got up and went to the hat.I was almost positive it would be Ravenclaw.She was just one of those
people.
"GRYFFINDOR!"the hat cried.I was kind of surprised.Lizzie got up and walked to our table.She sat down beside
Sirius and he put an arm around her.
"Welcome to the Marauders,generation three."he said.She smiled and hugged him.
"Okay that is the end of our sorting."Dumbledore said."Let the feast begin!"The food appeared on the table and we
all started eating.Dumbledore began to sit back down when Proffesor McGonagall whispered something in his ear.
"Oh,it seems it is not the end of our sorting.We have a new fourth year student who is yet to be sorted."Dumbledore
said."Her name is Mari Riddle.Mari..."he waved her forward.I tall,slim girl stood up.She walked with an aire of
importance to the front.She was wearing the most expensive of muggle clothes and high heel shoes that showed off
her long legs.I looked at Sky and James.They were both gawking at her as was every other male in the room minus
the male proffesors.I rolled my eyes.
"Damn."James whispered to Sky.
"Uh huh."Sky whispered back.
"Oh come on you two.She is just a regular human girl.There is nothing special about her."I said,with a bit of annoyance in
my voice.James looked at me and Sky continued to stare at the girl as she sat down on the stool with the hat on her
head.James leaned towards me.
"Zaria,don't be too hard on us.We are only human."he said.He kissed me on the cheek and leaned back.I stared at him.
'OH MY GOD!James just kissed me.OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!'I thought to myself.I looked him again
then looked the new girl.The hat sure was taking a long time.Finally,after what seemed like hours,the hat cried
"GRYFFINDOR!".I cheered along with the others but I was secretly cursing that damned hat in my head.
'Why me?Why my house?Ugh life sucks.'I said to myself as the girl walked towards our table.She sat down at the
end of the row beside Gavin,who seemed a bit more than pleased to have her there.He struck up a conversation
with her as we began to eat again.The my mind drifted back to James.I leaned towards him.(a/n:He beside her and
Sky and Hallie are across from her.)
"James,why did you just kiss me?"I asked.He turned towards me.
"Would you prefer that I don't kiss you?"he asked teasingly.I flushed.
"I...um..well...I don't mind."I said.He smiled.
"Good,that was the answer I was hoping for."he said.Without another word he turned away from me.I was extremely
confused.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
After we ate we went up to the common room and we had a "small" party to celebrate the start of a new year.There
was snack food and Filbuster Fireworks and Every Flavor Beans and music.It lasted till about 1:30,when Remus and Sirius
came and made us go to bed.I went up to my dormitory with my friends Larissa and Shayla and the new girl,Mari.I had
talked to her during the party when the guys weren't swarming around her and she was actually a pretty nice person.
I changed into my pajamas and layed down but I couldn't go to sleep.I wasn't sure why but I had this feeling that I should go
down to the common room.I got up and went downstairs,still in my pajamas.When I got there I saw some one sitting on
a couch,staring at the fire.I walked towards them and they turned.It was James.
"Hey,Zaria.What are you doing up?"he asked.I sat down beside him.
"I should be asking you the same quesion Jamie."I said.He smiled.
"I honestly don't know why I'm down here.I just had this feeling that I should be."he whispered.
"Same here."I said,scooting closer to him.
"So what do you think of the new girl?"he asked.I shrugged.
"She's okay I guess."I said.
"I talked to her for a little while.She seems kind of shallow to me."he said,putting his arm around my shoulders.
"I don't know.She seemed nice enough."I said.
"For some reason her last name sounds really familiar."James said.I nodded.
"I noticed that.Okay new topic.Honestly,why did you kiss me earlier?"I asked bluntly,layiong my head on his shoulder.He
looked down at my face.
"Because."he said.
"That is not an answer.Tell me the truth."I said.He sighed.
"I like you,Zaria.I always have.You are my best friend.I love being around you.I love going on crazy adventures with
you.I love the way you always argue with people when they say you are wrong about something,even if they are right.
I love how you blush when you get nervous.I love ow you chew on your bottom lip when you think.I have just faced the
enevitable.I love you,Zaria."he said.My jaw dropped.I lifted my head from his shoulder and stared into his eyes.I leaned
closer to him.Inch by inch,our faces got closer to each other's.Very slowly our lips touched.It was a soft kiss at first but
then grew more passionate.I put my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me.He slid his arms around my waist
and we kissed until we were out of breath.Then we pulled away from each other.
"I've never done that with you before."I said.
"Nope."
"We should do that more often."I said.
"Okay."He grabbed me around the waist and kissed me again,just as passionately as the first time.My arms somehow found
their way around his neck and my fingers played with his hair.My lips parted slightly and his tongue found its way into my mouth.
It surprised me at first but then I just kissed him back.He leaned back on to the arm of the couch and I leaned with him.We pulled
out of the kiss and just layed there beside each other.
"I love you,too Jamie."I said.He smiled and I layed my head on his chest.We layed there until we fell asleep.
