A/N- Okay, this has a lot of dialogue so try and follow, it's easy to get
lost. Trust me I'm getting lost writing it. And p.s. I did not say British
people are uncool or that they had crapy customs, what I said was, and I
quote. "I will not pretend to be British and I will not pretend to know
their customs." In my opinion I would be more offended if someone tried to
write like an American and screwed it up royally, then someone coming out
and saying they won't even try to write like one. Hey, I think British
people are cool! All I said was I wasn't one of them, k, does that settle
everything, good, now on with the show!
Chapter 4- The Reunion
James stepped out of Elizabeth's car, his sister leaned over the passenger seat so he could see her (the top was up because it was raining) "Listen, I know we really don't get along but your still my little brother so have fun, be careful, and REALLY don't do anything I would do. See you later." And with that Elizabeth sped away. James shook his head and turned around. As he bent down to grab his trunk a small explosion sent him to the ground. James coughed and waved the dust out of his face, "If that got onto any of my stuff I'm goin kill Sirius." "What was that Jamesie? I think I heard incorrectly but did you just accuse me of pulling this prank?" said Sirius coming from the side of James waving Luke's Light anywhere firecrackers. "Yes Padfoot I did, and you will never guess what just happened," said James as Sirius helped him up. "Let me guess," said Sirius, "They made you Head Boy a year early! No you would have told me about that. I know you have decided to announce your undying love to Lilian Ann Evens, I knew it," said Sirius putting both his hands up to one cheek pretending to dream. "Actually, no, but I think me and my sister shared one of those brother sister moments you hear about all the time." Sirius' jaw dropped, "NO!" "Yes"-said James shaking his head up and down. "You and. Elizabeth?!" James shook his head up and down again. "Miss little miss perfect, daddy's little angel, Miss I'll kill you unmercifully, fry and eat your guts for dinner and feed your remains to snakes if you touch my stuff ELIZABETH!" "The one and only," said James. "Well who would have ever thought that." "Hey guys," said Remus, "what's up?" "James and Elizabeth had a brother sister moment!" said Sirius. "No!" exclaimed Remus looking at James, "Queen of the Bitches, sleeps with spiders, Elizabeth!" "That's the one!" said Sirius. "Hey guys what's going on?" The three guys turned around to see Angela, all the boys jaws dropped. "Angela you look um, different," said Remus swallowing. It was a fact to all of the Maurders that Remus liked Angela as more than a friend, but would never admit it. Angela turned a bright shade of red, "Yeah I came home last year to find all the clothes I left behind had disappeared and had been replaced by this." What 'this' was, was a tight fitting red tee-shirt that sparkled and pair of capris, topped of with high heel sandals and hoop earrings. It actually looked like something Elizabeth would wear, but on Elizabeth it would scream slut, Angela could carry it off perfectly. "My sister said I needed to start dressing like a girl so that's also the reason I'm wearing make-up."
"Angela, Oh My God, turn around so I could take a look at you," said Vanessa running up behind Angela and spinning her around so she could get a good look at her, "Tell your sister she did a nice job, Ang!" Vanessa said, "Did you get highlights?" she asked straitening up so she could look her in the eye. "Um no actually my hair was the only thing my sister didn't change, well she put it up, but other than that she left it alone," said Angela. "Huh, maybe it's the top, did you always have gold highlights Ang?" "Yeah," said Angela, now quite embarrassed.
"Would you leave the girl alone Vanessa, she's not a Barbie doll," said Macula, showing up from nowhere. "Do you think it looks that bad Mac?" said Angela. "Actually, Angela," said Macula taking in a deep breath, "Even I have to admit you look good."
"Hey guys, long time no see!" said Lily coming up and putting her arms around Macula and Vanessa. "Angela you look so great, and even if I couldn't see you I'd still be able to tell cause the boys are looking like fish outta water over there." "Someone's in a good mood," said Sirius with a smile. "If you got the opportunity to escape Petunia for about 10 months wouldn't you be happy?" said Lily, her grin still intact.
"Whose Petunia?" Asked yet another voice. "She's Lily's sister," said James turning around to face Peter. "Sister, uh no, more like nightmare, James, get it straight," said Lily jokingly. "Anyway, don't you two perfect prefects have something you should be doing?" asked Sirius with a grin slowly spreading across his face.
Lily and James looked at each other and made a mad dash for the train.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Hey guys, I found um!" Macula yelled down the train. The group was separated right after Lily and James left to help the 1st years get on the train. "Ah, how cute," Sirius said looking at the scene in front of him, "Quick! Get a camera!" Macula flipped open her trunk and tossed Sirius a disposable camera, "Make sure there's no flash." "Oh yeah we wouldn't want them to think that they hadn't been found like this or anything," joked Sirius as he raised the camera. "Hey guys have you seen Remus or Angela?" Vanessa said as she popped her head into the compartment. "No, but maybe you should check the closets," Sirius said with a huge grin. "You know Padfoot it's not nice to spread rumors; or take pictures of people sleeping, especially when they're your friends," said a very groggy James. "How long were you awake?" asked Sirius spinning around to face James. "Ever since you two first came into the compartment," answered Lily, taking her head of off James' shoulder and sitting up, "But please do go on, what was that about Remus and Angela?" "Now look what you started, Sirius, Remus will never forgive you," said James yawning. "Who cares?! I want to here more about the whole Remus and Angela in a closet thing," Macula said pulling Sirius into the seat next to her. "You want to hear about Remus's love life?" Sirius questioned, "Vanessa yes, Lily maybe, and Angela definitely yes, but I didn't picture you." "Hello," said Vanessa sitting on the other side of Sirius, "Remus and Angela would so make the cutest couple, aside from Lily and James of course." "Oh yeah Vanessa, and after James and I go out, be sure to take down that picture of Sirius, that you love to hang out in the open in our sleeping quarters, I might add," said Lily evilly. "What picture?" said Sirius, quite interested. "Yeah really Vanessa we have to dream in that room and it doesn't help to have him right there.." Macula however never got to finish her sentence because Vanessa had leaned over Sirius and covered Macula's mouth with her hand. "No I want to hear, what picture?" Sirius wined. "Some how I get the feeling you don't want to hear Sirius," said Lily. "OW!" screamed Vanessa jumping backwards, staring at her hand, "She bit me!" Macula however just spit out her tongue. "So anyway," continued Lily, "What is this about Angela and Remus?" "I want to hear about the picture!" wined Sirius. Thus starting the war that erupted on that side of the compartment.
"Do you know?" Lily said turning to James who still had his arm wrapped around her waist and his eyes closed. "Oh, what," said James opening his eyes, "oh, um, Remus has always had this like monster crush on Angela," James finished sleepily. "ARE YOU SERIOUS!!" screamed Lily jumping up, causing Vanessa, Sirius, and Macula to all look at her. "You told her didn't you?" asked Sirius, looking past Lily to James. "Told her what?" asked Vanessa. At this question Lily started jumping up and down and clapping her hands, "Remus likes Angela! Remus likes Angela! It's to perfect!" When the other to girls in the compartment heard this news they to started jumping up and down and clapping their hands. James was wide awake now, "Sirius what do we do?" he hissed, "What if Remus comes in? He'll know we said something!" Sirius reached up, grabbed Vanessa and Macula around the waist and pulled them back down in their seats the same second James had grabbed Lily and pulled her down. "What's all this about?" asked Remus coming in followed closely by Angela and Peter, "And James why is Lily on your lap?" James looked down to see that not only was Lily sitting on his lap but he also had his arms around her, at this, both the teenagers sprang away too separate corners of the compartment, "Um, ah, no reason, no reason at all, Remus, why do you ask?" Asked James very quickly. "Right," said Remus, "I'll believe nothing was going on," he said as he walked over to Sirius, "You'll fill me in later?" "Of course I will Mooney." "Your'e a good friend." "I wouldn't be to sure," said Vanessa giggling. "Meaning what, exactly?" asked Remus turning his attention to Vanessa. "I said nothing! Okay! Nothing! James was the one who said it to Lily, who said it for the entire train to hear, okay! I was trying to find out about a picture of me in their dorm!" Sirius said pointing at James furiously. "Yeah sweetie, that picture has to go," said Angela to Vanessa. "See, see I said nothing!" said Sirius. "You started it!" said James, "I would not have said anything if you hadn't said something first!" "Wait, time out the both of you," Remus said, looking back and forth between his friends, "Tell me later, I need time to figure out if I really want to know," he said sighing. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Lily watched James from the other side of the Great Hall, he was leaning against the Gryffindor table with his arms and legs crossed, no doubt waiting for her so they could lead the first years up to the dorm, "Do you think he'll be mad at me?" Lily said, turning her full attention to her best friend. "Who, James? He won't care, come on Lily, you have to come with me! This is one of our last years here!" Macula wined. "Alright," Lily sighed walking toward James. As soon as he saw her he straitened up, "Ready to go?" "Macula and I were going to go around the school grounds," Lily said, hoping not to sound too guilty. "Oh, well I'll make Sirius go with me then," said James his smile gone. Lily threw her arms around James' neck, "Thank you so much James, this means a lot." "Sure Lils" James said. "Lily, Come on!" Lily spun around, "In a sec," she turned back toward James and gave him a quick peck on the cheek, "Thanks again," Lily turned and ran towards Macula. "What was that, was James getting a little action?" Sirius said walking towards James. "No, but your right on time," said James with a famous Marauder's grin. Sirius' smile faded, "On time for what?" James stood on a chair, "Prongs, Prongs, on time for what?!?!" James turned towards the first years, "Ladies and Gentlemen, young wizards and witches of all ages, I would like to introduce you to your tour guide." "What?" Sirius asked, "You're joking right? James, you're joking." "He wasn't able to be a Prefect because he set our Arithmancy Professor's robes on fire last year, landing him our class time in the hospital, but he is your tour guide none the less," said James with a smile. "Oh, I'm glade to see your feeling better," said Sirius watching James as he climbed down from the chair. "Much, are you coming?"
"How was your vacation Lil?" Macula asked as they walked around the lake. "Awful, all Petunia did was complain about me and mess my room up, way worse than usual," Lily answered, "how was your vacation?" "Um, my parents decided to get a divorce, Do you think we should be this close to the forest?" Macula said trying to change the subject. Lily stopped and grabbed Macula's arm, "Why didn't you tell me? Here I am sounding like an ass about how bad my sister is and, Macula." "It's no big deal really," said Macula turning to face Lily, "We really shouldn't be this close to the forest." "Macula." Lily started. "Look I just wanted to tell you before it got around the school, okay, Lily please I really just don't want to talk about it," Macula said yanking her arm out of Lily's grip and walking on ahead. Lily stared after her, she knew how much Macula had always hoped for her parents to stop arguing and finally go to marriage counseling, and she knew Macula better then to leave her alone about this. Lily blinked, 'Where did Macula go?' Lily thought, "Macula?" Lily screamed running towards the direction she had last seen Macula, "Macula!" Lily looked towards the Forbidden Forest, she must have gone in there, she's going to get herself killed, I have to get her out of there. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Is she your girlfriend?" Sirius asked, imitating a little child, "Cause she kissed your cheek and all." "Sirius, for the umpteenth time, SHUT UP!" James said as they finally entered the common room. From the Great Hall all the way to the common room, all the first years had asked, at least twice, about him and Lily. "But you two looked so cute together and.." James stopped and held out his hand to stop Sirius, "Did you hear that?" "James, I know you and this is not.." Sirius looked at James and knew he wasn't playing, Sirius sighed and listened, "James, I. Wait, that time I heard it." James and Sirius took off down the stairs. `*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`*`* `*`*
Macula sat with her head on her knees, she couldn't let Lily see her cry, she couldn't let anyone. Macula let out a slow sad laugh, "Everyone thinks they know me, they think, look at Macula, doesn't care what anyone thinks a her, they have no idea." Macula knew Lily was probably looking for her, but she couldn't face her, not like this. Macula remembered what it was like growing up. She remembered when she was little; her brother would come into her room and read to her by flashlight to drown out their parents arguing. When she got older she would read to herself, she knew how to fight by the age of 9 because she had to find someway to shut the kids up who were constantly teasing her about her parents. When she was 10, she remembered her brother sneaking back into the house from the parties he had been at, the only reason she knew was because he would come in and check on her. That was about the time her parents decided military school was the best road to take for him, taking away the only person she could stand, they didn't understand he was just doing it as an outlet. Macula was thrilled when she finally received her letter to Hogwarts, no parents to hear late at night, but the arguing was better then what she got instead, in place of the arguments, she got letters, sometimes Howlers, from one parent complaining about the other. The Howlers were the worst; they let the whole school know about the situation with her parents. That was when she decided, she would never let anyone see her cry, when she walked through the halls, she wanted people to cower in fear, even the older kids, and she was not going to ruin all that by letting anyone, including her best friend, see her cry. Macula pulled her legs closer to her, maybe it was a bad idea to come into the forest, that's when she head it, very faintly, "Lily!" Macula screamed jumping up and running in the direction of the screaming.
A/N- That's all fer now Folks. What do you think? I wasn't goin end it there but what the hey, I would get like a page or two done and then forget about it for a while, so here it is, I promise to get more up as soon as I get the chance, k. Remember reviews are greatly appreciated!
