JAMES POINT OF VIEW By: rickann THE TRUTH ABOUT REMUS
YEAR ONE-CHAPTER TEN FINNAL EXAMS ARE A PAIN IN THE BUTT
The rest of the time tall Easter Break went bye fast. A couple of weeks before Pro. M. sent a sign up sheet for those who were staying for Easter Break. Me, Lily, Sirius and Heather sign up and every one else's parents made them go home. Easter Break was no were near as fun as x-mas because the teachers had given them so much homework they never got a chance to play. 'Finally exams are on us.' they say. Lily seemed to think so to because you'd never see her w/out a book. She had pretty much stopped eating. She wouldn't have eaten the whole break if we didn't threaten to burn all her books and put jinks on her if she didn't.
All too soon it was the end of Easter Break and the common room was always full of student trying to cram as much info. into their head. The Head Boy and Prefects would yell at you if you deserved the quiet. One night I was really sick of studding so me Remus & Sirius decided to let off a dozen stink bombs. So we grabbed my cloak and made sure every one noticed us leaving.
"Sirius I'm telling you you're wrong."
"No you're wrong Remus. There are four different ways to use the Greek Blue Pickle Berry Flower. NOT 3."
"You guys shut up and leave before I give you detonation." Yelled a Prefect named Sara. We heard out of the portrait and hi-five each other. We waited five-min. then put the cloak on and went back inn. We made are way to an empty corner and lit the dung bombs then ran back out before any one noticed us.
A min. later the rest of the common room ran out holding their noses. We waited another min. then walked around the corner talking a little loud so they noticed us. "See Remus I told you there was 4 different ways to use it."
"Shut up Sirius! Hey why is every one out here?"
"You know why. You three let of dung bumbs in the common room." Yelled the Head Boy.
"We did no such thing. We were in the library looking up Greek Blue Pickle Berry Flowers. Isn't that right Sirius."
"Yeah and I was right."
"Come on do you think were going to believe you after every thing you three have done?"
"Yeah w/ the racket these two were making when we got throne out I thought every one saw us leave."
"We did but that doesn't mean you didn't come back."
"Look if you don't believe us why don't you just ask the fat lady if we came back."
"Ok I will. Yo fat lady did you see these three come back inn after they left?"
"Nope sorry dear but those three are telling the truth for once."
"Thank you now if you don't mind we have to get back to are studding. Coca Cola." I said and walked back into the smelly common room w/ all my friends behind me. It didn't smell as bad any more so we decided to stay down there and study as a group. We put three tables together and started to quiz each other quietly.
Once every one else was studding again Lily asked, "So did you guys really not set off the dung bombs?"
"Of curse not didn't you here what the fat lady said?" I said and gave her a wink when no one was looking.
"What ever you say. Ok James what's the three uses of Pickle brains?" Lily said in a sarcastic voice.
In what seemed like no time at all we were siting inn the potion dudgeon trying to remember how to make a shrinking potion. It was our first exams and I only forgot one agreement. Nicole and Heather did the best out of all of us. Their potion was prefect. "Oh come on guys it wasn't that hard." Heather said, and Nicole shocks her head in agreement, as we walked to the Tran. room.
"Maybe not for you. But then again your aunt used to be are Pro. so its probably some genetic thing." Peter said in a sarcastic voice. He had done the worst out of the whole class. He had forgotten the main agreements and then just started putting in what he thought was supposed to be in there. In the end he his potion made the nut we were supposed to use grow bigger instead of smaller.
In tran. we had to make a pair of teddy bear earrings out of a very furry teddy bear. Point were given for how nice of pair of earrings were. Points were taken away if the earrings were had fur if it was still brown. Bye the end of class every one, even Peter, had a pair of earrings on their desk. Every now and then a pair would still be brown of furry, in Peters case both.
Inn Herbology and History of magic we had the written part of the test. We were given a special quill w/ a no cheating spell on it. After History of magic ever one made their way back up to the common room to study for Charms and the rest of are exams. Bye the end of the week every one was happy to be finished w/ there exams. Sense the Gryffindors first years had the afternoon off we decide to pass the time out side bye the lake.
For the rest of the week we finished are exams. On Friday after are last exam, DADA; the whole gang made their way out side. Sirius and me had stole some food from the kitchen so we could eat out side. We sat there under a tree by the lake. Eating and talking about what we're going to be doing over the summer.
"So Janine what are you planning on doing over the summer?" Lily asked as she tocks a bite of her sandwich.
"Not much. Rickie and me are going to a girl camp thing, at the begging of vac. for a week. How about you Lily?"
"The usually. I'll spend most days hanging out w/ Heather, Sirius and James doing who knows what. And at night Heather and me have sleepovers and pull pranks on the boys. If were at my house we pull a prank on James, as he lives next door. If were at Heather's house we get Sirius room as he lives only two houses down from Heather. How about the rest of you?"
"I'm going to France the first 2 weeks of June with Peter and are family's." Remus said. "Then I have not a clue after that."
"I'll propel set at home and play w/ sister We might go to Utah or Hawaii, a state in America," Nicole added seeing most of us had not a clue were she was talking about. "In June. But were not sure wet."
"How about you Ryan?" I asked noticing that Ryan was being very quiet.
"Umm, I moving to Slat lake, Utah this June. My dad sent me a letter saying that his work has moved his job there for a couple of years."
"Oh Ryan that's terrible. We're going to miss you sooo much." Heather said and gave Ryan a hug and a kiss on the check. The rest of the girls gave him a hug to. Saying how much they were going to miss him.
"You know James Peter I think we are getting jiped here." Sirius said trying to sound sad. When he saw the puzzle looks on are faces he added; "First Remus gets all the girls when we find out his secret. And now Ryan gets them because he's moving."
We caught on quick and put on puppy dogfaces like Sirius and I said. "That's sooo unfair girls. When is it are turn to get smothered in hugs and kisses?" I said and flashed them a smile. At this we all cracked up laughing. Tell Peter caught his breath and started to talk.
"Lets see so fare we know if we want the girls attain we have to have a secret w/ a sad story or we have to move away."
"Nope those two are already taken boys. You'll have to come up w/ something else to get are attain." Rickie said and we all started to laugh.
Once every one had stopped laughing Lily remembered something. "You guys it's mine and James birthday on July 1st. We always have a combined birthday party. You'll all have to come. You to Ryan; I'm sure we can find some way to get you to come. Then we can have a sleep over."
"That sounds great. I didn't know you and James were born on the same day!" Nicole said. "You'll have to owl us."
We went on talking for the rest of the afternoon seeing how we had no classes. After every one else got out of class they would run out side. By 4 o'clock there was no one left in the school, even the teachers came out side before dinner.
