Chapter 4-All About the Skimpy PJs

"Mom?" Harry whispered in amazement. He turned to Peg. "Who is she?"

"Her? She's Destiny," said Peg, as though this was the obvious answer.

"She looks like my mom," he explained. Right after he said that, the entire room froze in their places so that Harry an Destiny/Lily Potter could speak in semi-private.(A/N it isn't really in private since loads of other people are in the room too, but you get the point)

"I am your mother, dear," explained Destiny/Lily Potter.

Harry gaped. "How is that possible?" said Harry, feeling very alarmed. "You are dead. How can you be here?"

"Oh dear," sighed Destiny. "This will take a lot of explaining. You see, everybody has a destiny, something that they must do in their lives. Some people never achive their destiny. But that is alright, because the destinies of those people will be found and achieved by someone else, so the fate of the universe is not altered. However, some people's destinies can only be fulfilled by them. That'd be you. It's my job to help those people find and meet their destinies."

"And how exactly did you become Destiny?" Harry inquired curiously.

"That, my dear, is an extremely long story, which I will fill you in on later," said Destiny wearily. "In the meantime, I suggest you return to arguing with Peg, as the rest of the room will be thawing out anytime now." No sooner had she spoke, then animation returned to the room once more. Harry turned back to Peg, who was ranting on about something

"...should I listen too you? I'm older." said Peg sulkily. "And I like picking fights. AND hitting on taken men."

"You should listen to me because I am a Prefect,"said Harry, quickly regaining his composure. "You are older by three hours and fifty-nine minutes. If you want to fight, I'll show you the way to the Slytherin common room. If you really need to hit on someone, hit on Ron, he's single."

"Don't tell that snot to hit on me!" cried Ron indignantly.

"She's not a snot, Ron," replied Harry. "She's uncomfortable in new places. So she flirts to make herself feel more at home. Don't worry, after Peg has settled in, she'll go after the 'taken men' as she puts it. You will be safe from her as long as you don't get attached to anyone."

"And besides, I'd rather hit on George," she said slyly. "He always falls for it."

"WHAT?!?! Why didn't you tell me?" said Fred annoyed, cuffing George in the back of the head. "You know we weren't supposed to get attached to her!"

"Hey-" started George, but Harry inturrupted him. "We don't want to hear the details. And how the HELL do you know each other?"

Fred glanced at Peg, who nodded, before answering. "I used to work with Aurther." she said simply. "He helped me learn how to act like a Muggle."

"Why do you need to know how to act like a Muggle?" said Harry, seething.

"I was sent to school to protect you, OK?" said Peg, suddenly becoming very business-like. "Don't ask me why it was me, I don't know. Destiny said it was my, well, destiny to keep you safe until you met your destiny. That would be the Mudblood at your side." she added with a sneer.

"Margeret," said Destiny warningly. "You know you aren't allowed to do that. Harry cannot stay mad at you for long. He loves you to much. If Hermione becomes mad at him, nothing can be done about it. Hermione's feelings cannot be changed. Although it is not possible for Harry and Hermione to fall out of love, they are both so stubborn that neither of them will ever admit to their wrong-doing."

"So I could break them up and have Harry to myself?" said Peg slyly.

"Memo to me, never tell anyone how they can change destiny to their advantage," said Destiny quietly. "Yes, you could separate them, but then all can and will be lost. Besides, you can never become romantically involed with Harry ever again. It is illegal."

Hermione spit out the mouthful of water she had just put in her mouth and began to sputter.

"What's wrong?" asked Harry, Ron and Peg together.

"Nothing," she said innocently. "Something just occured to me."

"Like...?" supplied Harry.

"Oh!" said Hermione, faltering. "Um...I...forgot what the History of Magic homework was, and I just remembered it. Yeah! That's right!"

"Right, whatever," said Harry knowing perfectly well that that was a downright lie. Hermione never forgot what the homework was for any class. "What time is it?" he added to Ron.

"It's almost ten o' clock, and I'm going to bed," said Ron, pointedly.

"Me too," said Harry. "Mione?" This got several whoops.

"Yeah," she agreed. "Lav? Parvati? Ginny?"

"Coming!" they said, jumping out of the laps of Dean, Seamus and Neville. "Come on!" They added to the boys.

Harry looked at Ron then at Peg, then back at Ron. Ron shook his head mouthing 'NO!! NO!!!'

"Would you like to come up too, Peg??" he said to her. This got several gasps of surprise;no one had expected this after the scene they had just witnessed.

"SHUT UP!" Harry and Peg shouted in unison again.

"So, how about it?" Harry repeated.

"Uh, OK," she agreed uncertainly.

"Come on!!" shouted Seamus, Hermione, Neville, Ginny, Ron, Parvati, and Dean to Peg and Harry.

"What are we doing?" said Peg, totally confused.

"Come up to the dormitories, I'll explain it all there," said Hermione, smiling. She didn't know why, but she liked Peg. She supposed she shouldn't, but she did. It was unexplainable.

They all trudged up the spiral staircase to their respective dormatories.

The Girls' Dormitories

"OK, what the heck are we doing?" asked Peg.

"OK," said Hermione. "The boys are coming over here in Harry's Invisibility Cloak. We're gonna have a little Christmas party."

"Ahhh," said Peg, smiling. "And all of you are romantically attached to one of the boys, right?"

"Yeah, except Ron, he hasn't got anyone. That's probably why Harry told you to hit on him. For what it's worth, I think you'd make a good couple," said Hermione, smiling too.

"Well, if you want to impress your men, I have just the thing for you to wear," whispered Peg evilly, opening her school trunk. The others gasped at what they saw inside. There was a large assortment of what appeared to be bathing suits made of cotton. They weren't bathing suits, they were slinky pajamas. Peg handed them out to the girls, who looked at them, not understanding. "Put them on," she urged.

"You want US to put these on?" asked Ginny incredulously. "They're like, slutty clothes. No offense." she added quickly to Peg, who smiled.

"It's OK," said Peg. "I like these kinds of PJs. I hate wearing dresses, especially at night. So I wear pants and T-shirts to bed."

"But this one's a skirt,"disagreed Parvati, holding up the one Peg had handed her.

Peg wrinkled her nose in disgust. "I know," she said. "My mom thought they were cute. Ugh!" she shuddered. "Hurry up! Put them on, they'll be hear any minute!"

They all climbed onto their four-poster beds, closed the curtains, and changed out of their school robes and into the pajamas. When they were finished, they climbed out, one-by-one to look at each other. Hermione was the first to crack, and soon they were all giggling madly, pointing at each other's outfits. Hermione suddenly realized that Peg had not climbed out yet.

"Are you OK?" she asked tentitively, looking at Peg's bed, which had been magically moved there.

Peg stepped out of her hiding place behind the curtains of her bed. They all gasped;she was barely wearing anything.

Her outfit consisted of a green tube top with a picture of a decorated Christmas tree. Her buttucks and little else were covered by a pair of green hot-pants.

Just then, the door opened. Parvati, Lavender, Hermione, and Ginny all screamed and hid themselves as best they could behind the curtains of their beds.

Harry, Dean, and Seamus appeared from under the cloak, looking surprised at the girls' reaction.

"What's wrong?" asked Harry, concerned.

"Nothing," said Peg, smiling radiantly and stepping out from behind her bed, where she had been hidden from the boys.

Dean and Seamus gasped, staring hungrily at her. Harry groaned and fell into a nearby chair. "Unbelievable," he moaned into his hands. "Hermione, Ginny, please tell me she did not talk you into wearing one of her pajama sets."

"Sorry, Harry, I cannot tell a lie," Hermione said sweetly, stepping out.

"Holy shit!" cried Harry, looking at Hermione. She was wearing a pair of loose black shorts, with flames coming up from the bottoms and ending at her hips. Her shirt was red with gold glitter writing across the front saying:Watch This Space For Further Developments. Hermione turned around slowly so he could see the back of her shorts, which said:I Know My Butt Is Beautiful, But Please Don't Stare. PINCH!! "You look, interesting to say the least," Harry stammered, unable to look away.

"Don't you like it?" asked Hermione worriedly. "Because, if you don't, I could put my long night dress on." she added slyly.

"Of course I like it, but, God, please don't start wearing that kind of stuff all the time. I get enough of that crap from Peg," said Harry sighing.

"What's wrong with the way I dress?" asked Peg, pouting. "You never used to mind it."

"That was then, this is now," snapped Harry impatiently. "At least this school has a uniform. You have to wear school robes at all times. Gryffindor skirts or pants have to be worn as well. White shirts underneath. NO writing allowed on the shirts. If you want to, you can wear jewelry, but it has to be appropriate. Got it?"

Peg only nodded sullenly. "Got it." she muttered.

"Good," said Harry, satisfied. "I have to go get Ron and Neville. If you're going to put on something more concealing, I would do it NOW." he added, looking especially hard at Peg.

The Boys' Dormitories

Harry came out from under the cloak just as Neville returned from the kitchens, where he had gotten cookies and pumpkin juice for everybody.

"Ready?" asked Harry. "Do you need some help Neville? Reducio!" he said, pointing his wand at the snacks. They all srunk down to pocket size. The boys crammed them into their pockets and got under the invisibility cloak.

They walked over to the mirror to make sure that nothing was showing, then walked through the door.

Option 1-Meanwhile, back at the ranch...(if you have read the second book in A Series of Unfortunate Events, this will make sense. I f it doesn't, here's a different way of saying it.)

Option 2(In case you haven't read the reptile room)-Meanwhile, back in the Gryffindor Common Room...

Just as the three boys got to the common room to go up the girls' stairs, they heard the voices of the Weasly twins.

"Oh Harry!!!! Yes! Yes! Yes!!" said George in a high, girly voice.

"Hermione! You animal!" answered Fred in his regular voice.

They were obviously entertaining the crowd with stories of what Harry and Hermione were doing at the very moment. Harry decided to have some fun with them, and took Ron and Neville up to the girls room, told Hermione what they were doing, and explained his plan...
**********************************
OK! OK! OK! I know its the worst cliffy in the history of everything, but I wanted to get this up NOW! I have lots of Thanx to hand out, but first I want to say something to AznGolDragonGod:Drat you!! I thought I had a nice mystery going there, and you had to go and burst my Happy Bubble! I know it was slightly obvious, but you didn't have to go put it in a review! The least you could have done was not sign it, so I could remove it!!! You made me so mad (not) that you can consider this your thank you! Thanx!;) Also, I'm glad the cat-fight thing was a joke, because Peg and Mione are gonna end up as friends (I think)

Thanx to:

Maiden of Gryffindor-I totally agree, the wait is horrible. I'm glad you liked my cliffie!
Christopher Raxtonel (Gryffindor-In the future, I will refer to you in my thank yous as Chris of Gryffindor, OK? I'm glad you liked it so much.
Bunny Lee-I like your ideas for grusome deaths(just kiddin') and I might use one, but that kinda depends on how the story plays out.
hotty-WOW!!! You don't know how much that means to me!! I appreciate it, even if it probably isn't true!
book worm4ever+Nabeetha-I appreciate it, and I like the way you write yer reveiws.
To Everyone Else- THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR REVEIWING, I'M SORRY I CAN'T THANK YOU TOO.

Btw, from now on, I'll probably only thank SIGNED reveiws, unless they have a lot of heart to them. Oh! And I need votes on which story you want me to continue first. Keep in mind that Peg is the first part in a trilogy, so that will probably take quite a while anyways. I will still work on all of them, but only one will get my full attention. I will only work on the others if I get a blast of lighening through my brain.(aka, an inspiration) I'll still read reveiws on all stories!!!!
