Chapter 9: Letters and Visits
"Damn, my butt hurts," Jamie said, up on her toes.
"Maybe if you hadn't fallen it wouldn't hurt," Lily said, flipping through a magazine.
"Well, fine then," Jamie said, twirling. She had been a big ballerina before Hogwarts and would practice in their dormitories from time to time.
Tessa was laying on her bed, staring into space, as usual. It had been two days since the ordeal and they were still restricted to their rooms. They hadn't seen the male counterparts of their troop for a few days now, and they were also getting very sick of each other. It was about 9:30 at night, and since they didn't have any classes, they were staying up late.
"I'm bored," Jamie said, leaping over a pile of half eaten sandwitches and glasses.
"We know, you've said that about thirty times," Lily said.
Just then, three owls flew in. One went to each girl. Jamie leapt onto her bed to her tawny owl, Luna.
"I got two letters," Jamie said, taking them off of her owl and gently petting her.
"Me too," Lily said, giving her owl, Marcy, owl treats.
"I only got one," Tessa said gloomily.
They each ripped open their letters and began to read in silence.
"Hey, guys, my mum and dad send their love to you two," Jamie said, putting the letter down and opening the next one.
"Cool," Lily said, reading hers. "Mine say that they hope things will get better for us."
"My mum says that she's praying for us," Tessa said.
"Gotta love parents," Jamie said. "Lil, who's your other one from?"
"James," Lily said, reading the letter and smiling.
"Figures," Tessa said, rolling her eyes. "What about you, Jamie."
"Now, do you need to know that?" she asked, blushing slightly.
"Yes, in fact, I do!" Tessa said, sitting up and looking at Jamie. She jumped up and tried to rip the letter from her.
"Nuh uh!" Jamie said, and flipped off her bed. "My letter!"
"Fine, then," Tessa said, turning to Lily. She walked by her and grabbed the letter.
"Hey!" Lily said, jumping up.
Tessa ran to her bed and read aloud in a silky voice, "Dearest Lily, I miss you sooooo much! I love you sooooo much! I want to marry you sooooo much! I-"
"You wish it said that," Lily said, looking up at Tessa skeptically.
"To true," she said and gave the letter back to Lily. She turned back to Jamie. "So, Williams. Who's it from?"
"Ahem," Jamie said, rolling her eyes. "I think not."
"Ok, I'm gonna guess, and if I guess right, you tell me, ok?" Tessa said. "Is it, Andy Peters?"
"No."
"Uh, Snape?"
"Ew, no!"
"Hm, Alex Wood?"
"Nope."
"Er, Andy Spinnet?"
"Nah."
"CJ Jordan?"
"No."
"Is he in our year?"
"Yeah."
"How many more guys are in our grade?"
"A bunch."
"How about this one," Lily said. "Is he in our house?"
"Yeah."
"OH! I KNOW WHO IT IS!!!" Tessa said. "Peter Pettigrew?"
"No!"
"Oh."
Just then, there was a knock on the door. The three of them warily looked at it.
"Who is it?" Lily asked.
"It's us, hurry up!" said James's voice.
Lily ran to the door and ripped it open. But no one was there.
"Um... ok..." Lily said, shutting the door.
"Ouch! Hey!" Sirius said.
"Oh, my God!" Jamie said, as James, Sirius, and Remus appeared out of no where. In James's hands laid an invisibility cloak.
"Bloody, is that what I think it is?" Lily whispered, taking the item from James.
"Yeah, I got it from my grandpa," James said. "We were bored and decided to come and visit you."
"What were you guys talking about before?" Sirius asked, his eyebrow raised. "All the guys you've gone out with?"
"No," Tessa said, rolling her eyes. "We were trying to figure out who Jamie got her letter from."
"Ah," Sirius said, looking at Jamie with amusment in his eyes. "Did you figure it out?"
"No, because they are brain dead," Jamie said, smiling to show she was joking.
"Hey," Lily said. "That's mean."
Jamie sat on her bed and untied her ballet slippers. Her feet were red, becasue she had been dancing for the last three days. Her toes had scabs on them. She whinced when she looked at them and put bandages on them.
"Ow, are you gonna be ok?" Sirius asked, sitting next to her and gingerly touching her feet.
She nodded and put regular slippers on.
"OH! I KNOW WHO IT IS!!!" Tessa said. "Mark Bigferd?"
"Shut up, Tess," Jamie said, standing up, but falling bacause her feet were used to the slippers. Sirius caught her and helped her up.
"You ok?" Sirius asked her again.
"Yeah," Jamie said. "I haven't danced so long in a while."
"OH! I KNOW WHO IT IS!!!" Tessa said again.
"Who is it, Tessa?" James said, his face full of vengance.
"Seth Fuller!"
"IT'S SIRIUS, YOU TWIT!" Remus said, rolling his eyes. They weren't on good terms yet.
"Really?" Tessa asked.
Sirius sighed and Jamie scoffed.
"Aren't we just the quick one," Jamie said.
"I'm glad that you have figured that out," Tessa said.
"My God," Sirius said, sitting on Jamie's bed.
"So, you guys do know that if you're caught up here, you're in big trouble, right?" Lily said, holding James's hand.
"I'm so sick of this solitary confindment, though," James said. "I want to go to classes!"
There was a knock on the door. James, Sirius, and Remus jumped behind the beds and Jamie threw the cloak on them.
"Who is it?" Lily asked.
"It's Professor McGonnagal."
Lily opened the door and the strict teacher walked in.
"I'm here to inform you that you will be starting school once again tomorrow. I sugest you go to sleep, and please inform Mr Potter, Mr Black, and Mr Lupin. We haven't seen Mr Pettigrew lately, so we are on the search," McGonnagal said. "Now, be in the Hall for breakast tomorrow."
With that, she left.
