"That's a twist, Black," Lily said smirking, as she sat back down in
where their circle had been, "You finally like a girl with a brain,"
"Be nice," Katrina scolded, "I think it's cute."
"You'd think a monkey with three heads and fungus growing on its tail is cute," remarked Allie dryly. Katrina glared at her for a moment before grinning.
"How's the Jester feel about him?" mused James glancing at the girl who was sitting there looking entirely perplexed with brilliantly colored features.
"She looks kind of baffled." volunteered Remus.
"No, really?" Peter asked sarcastically.
"No, I lied to you." Remus said.
"Oh. Okay." Peter said wryly.
Suddenly Allie's eyes went wide and she was overcome with giggles.
"What're you laughing at?" Sirius peered at her.
"You li- her - she li- you - So cute," Allie couldn't speak strait. Tasha, however, seemed to know what she was saying and gave her friend a look.
"What's she trying to say?" Remus looked at Tasha expectantly.
"Something she shouldn't," said Tasha surly.
"King Padfoot is going to ignore everything that just happened and ask Emperor Prongs whether he would like a T or a D?"
"Emperor Prongs replies T while wanting to laugh at King Padfoot,"
"Before asking a question to James, King Padfoot would like to know what is so god damn comical about him having an attachment to Jester Fatal?"
"President Moony would like to point out who King Padfoot is. A marauder, some would call him a player, some would call him stupid, a rule breaker, not much of a homework doer. Now President Moony will point out who Jester Fatal is. A friend of Queen Snapdragon, some would call her a bookwork, very intellectual, doesn't break to many rules, typically has her homework turned in on time." Remus said with a slight smile.
"Now do you understand?" questioned Allie.
"Bite me."
"No thank you," James said, "We don't know where you've been."
"Go to hell."
"Already been there. The weather's nice but I wouldn't want to live there," responded Lily.
"That is MY statement," Tasha complained.
"Well, I borrowed it." Lily said shrugging.
"King Padfoot would like to know if Jester Fatal finds his fondness of her humorous as well."
"Jester Fatal does not find it amusing at all. Well, just a teeny bit. But she finds it amusing that six teenagers find a crush this hilarious, and has decided she desires to get more clever friends. Jester Fatal would like to give an invitation to King Padfoot to join her on her quest." Tasha smiled slightly as she glanced down and made a move on the chessboard.
"King Padfoot would be delighted to join her and thinks to find more intelligent people that they ought to venture to the Ravenclaws. But King Padfoot would like to ask her one question, first." Sirius responded.
"Checkmate," Tasha told Allie who scowled, and then responded to Sirius, "Jester Fatal would like to know what that question is."
"Emperor Prongs thinks that maybe this wasn't the best idea, 'cause he seems to be losing his best friend to a bunch of uptight Ravenclaw wusses."
"King Padfoot is currently ticked off at Emperor Prongs, Tsar Wormtail, an President Moony, so he is ignoring them. He does, nevertheless, give him a warning that they better be ready for the war tomorrow. In response to Jester Fatal he shall now ask her the question. King Padfoot," Sirius paused indecisively, "King Padfoot would like to know if Jester Fatal would like to join him on the evening of tomorrow for a. . . date, perhaps?"
"Jester Fatal would be pleased to join King Padfoot for a date tomorrow evening," Tasha gave him a bashful smile. He returned it coyly.
"Ah, cut the crap. It's all mushy," Lily complained. Tasha grinned.
"We could turn it into a soap opera," She said.
"That's right. I could say I love Sirius, and Tasha can't have him, and then James could-" Allie was cut off.
"No thank you," Lily said shaking her head.
"Yo, Jamsie," Sirius said, "You said T. Who do YOU like?"
"Oh no. We're not going into that."
"'Scuse me?" Sirius said raising one eyebrow, "Ya'll made me talk. Spill it, Prongs."
"Hell no."
"James Anthony Potter," Remus said, "He has a point. We all know he likes the Jester. and the Jester likes him, for that matter, so you say their name now."
"You say yours. . ." James said.
"Fine. . ." said Remus uncertainly, "Don't mock me. Sorry, Katrina. But, ah, yeah, President Moony likes the First Lady Giggles."
Katrina looked pleased. "Really?"
"Yeah."
"Can we go out on a date then?"
Remus looked shocked for a second and then grinned with a nod.
"Damn. You said it." James complained.
"You don't need to," said Tasha looking amused, "I find it quite obvious how attracted to Lily you are."
James turned beat red. Everyone realized that he did, indeed, have a crush on Lily.
"Damn it, Potter. Don't like me." Lily said frustratedly.
"Why not?" demanded James.
"Just don't!" Lily muttered.
The other six looked at each other. It was clear that the relationship was not going to develop between James Anthony Potter and Lily Charity Evans just yet.
"Uh, it's getting late," volunteered Peter, "We should get to bed."
"Yeah," Allie nodded, "Christmas is tomorrow, and I'm sure we all want to get up early."
"To true," Lily said swiftly leaving the room, "Good night, everyone,"
"She'll come 'round," muttered Tasha to James as he walked by without a goodnight and left to his dorm.
"Night," Peter and Allie said both leaving.
"See ya, guys," muttered Katrina, who kissed Remus on the cheek and left.
"Yeah, g'night," said Remus also leaving. Tasha sighed.
"She'll come 'round, just like you told James," Sirius promised Tasha, who smile faintly at him. She gently pecked him on the lips.
"I sure hope so. James ain't gonna wait forever,"
Sirius smiled and kissed her, ahem, yes, that way. The theme Allie mentioned.
"Night, Sirius," She said and turned leaving.
"Good night, Natasha," he said. And then he was left alone.
"She'll come 'round. At least, I hope she does." he muttered before going to bed.
A/N: Eurgh, I'll have more chapters up later today, I hope. It's 1:35 a.m. where I am and I need to sleep.
"Be nice," Katrina scolded, "I think it's cute."
"You'd think a monkey with three heads and fungus growing on its tail is cute," remarked Allie dryly. Katrina glared at her for a moment before grinning.
"How's the Jester feel about him?" mused James glancing at the girl who was sitting there looking entirely perplexed with brilliantly colored features.
