The Famous Marauders
Chapter 26: Goodbye Kathy
Valentines Day caught a mystical feeling of Hope and romance around the school. Everything that happened that morning had been forgotten by lunch.
Lily sat next to Kristy and across from James in the Great hall.
"Here comes another one" James said, the group (except Taylor because she's in Ravenclaw) had been counting how many couples entered the Great Hall.
"Oh look at that," Sirius pointed to the Slytherin table
"Snape and the blond girl! I thought she only kissed hot guys," Lily said making everyone laughs, no one noticed Peter lightly blush.
"Hey Lily" Some one tapped Lily's shoulder, as Lily turned her smile faded
"What do you want Diggary?" Sirius said defensively
"Hi" Lily said
"I was just wondering if you wanted to go out sometime" The boy looked hopeful
"Erm." Lily started
"Sorry Diggary, but she's taken" James said standing up
"By who?" The boy asked ready for a challenge
"Me" James answered
"I thought she dropped you Potter"
"You heard wrong" James leaned completely across the table and let his lips brush against Lily.
When he broke apart the boy was gone.
"Th-Thanks" Lily said her lips tingling longing for more.
"No problem" James looked dreamily at her
"GOOD AFTERNOON, STUDENTS" Dumbledore stood up and greeted the students, breaking the sparks between Lily and James
"Today, is the last day our special visitors will be joining us" Kathy leaned against Sirius
Lily felt her eyes swell with tiers,
"What time is it" Peter whispered, clueless about what was happening
"Erm. 12:31" Lily said looking at her watch
Kathy ran out of the Great Hall right in the middle of Dumbledore's speech. Sirius hesitated before he started chasing her.
"What happened sweetie" He said grabbing her before she made it to the staircase
Kathy collapsed in Sirius's arms, her arms wrapped tightly around him, as she started to soak his shirt.
"Kathy, what happened" Sirius tried again
Kathy just cried harder
"Kathy" Sirius closed his eyes and leaned his head on her shoulder
"I think I can help" Came a voice
"Taylor" Sirius said in disbelief
Taylor walked over to them with an unreadable expression.
"Hey, what's going on"?
"I'm not sure" Sirius stared at Kathy
"Kathy, hunny do you want to go up to my room to talk" Taylor stuck her hands into her back pockets
Kathy nodded, broke apart from Sirius, and Taylor slipped one arm around Kathy's back.
Sirius watched them leave
"I thought they hated each other," Sirius said to himself
"WHO?" Sirius turned at the sound and saw the other marauders, Kristy, and Lily running toward him
"Dumbledore just finished" James huffed out of breath
"We saw Taylor slip away," Kristy added
"Where are they anyways?" Lily asked looking up and down the corridor
"I think they went to Taylor's room"
"Come on Kristy lets go"
"Hold up Lily, we have one HUGE problem"
"Which is?"
"There somewhere in RAVENCLAW" Kristy said matter-of-factly
"Oh, yeah"
"What can we do?" Sirius asked
"Nothing" Kristy sighed
"I'll catch you guys later, ok" James ran up the stairs not waiting for an answer
"JAMES" Lily cried stopping her foot
No answer
"I don't know why I ever bother being his girlfriend"
"So now you're his GIRLFRIEND" Sirius's lip curled
"No, I mean- I don't know" Lily blushed madly
Sirius and Remus smirked
- -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - -- - - -
"Can you go get Taylor please, tell her James waiting" James pleaded to a Ravenclaw girl heading into her common room
"No" The girl answered
"Please, come on Emily"
"Why so you can screw with her feelings to"
"I'm with Lily Evans, can you just go get her"
"No"
Feeling it was hopeless James headed up another flight of stairs to the Gryffindor common room, and ran to his room.
"Why can't girls just forgive you for dumping them" He cursed under his breath. Finding his Invisibility cloak James ran back to the entrance of the Ravenclaw common room and followed the next person in
Silently James slipped up the stairs, 'which ones hers' He stared at two doors, and he slid against the wall after hearing someone come up behind him,
"Eww" James whispered under his breath seeing another ex girl friend pass him by in only a towel
"Wow" James eyes widened as the girls towel slip,
'Why did I ever dump her'?
'No, stop thinking that you have a girl friend'
'Technically not'
'After today you will'
'But not right now'
'STOP THINKING' James continued to argue to himself as her saw the girl slip in one of the two doors.
James stood there for a while before reluctantly choosing the other door.
"Who's there?" Kathy said seeing the door swing open
"It was just the wind," Taylor told her
"No it wasn't" Kathy got up and shut the door, then pulled of James cloak
"Dose this look like the wind" Kathy said mater-of-factly
Taylor's eyes grew wide as she ran and locked the door.
"Ja-James! What are you doing here?" Taylor hissed
"Don't bite my head off" James said
"Keep your voice down" Taylor watched the door
"I tried to ask some girls to go get you, but they refused"
"What do you expect you dated most of the girls in Ravenclaw"?
"That reminds me, why didn't you date more Gryffindor's" Taylor added
"It wasn't that many girls and they were all before Lily, and if it was a Gryffindor and it didn't work out then I would have to see her every day."
"So why Lily" Taylor asked starting to relax
"What?"
"She means of all the Gryffindors, scratch that of all the girls in the school what made you work this hard for Lily" Kathy started brushing her tears away
"Erm."
"Come on I'm in the mode for a mushy love story" Kathy felt tears build in her eyes
"Well, I didn't start to like her until fifth year" At that moment Kathy started to cry hard
"Are you ok?" James said brushing her tears away
"Kind of, me and Taylor made up the rest of the plan"
"Yeah, sadly" Taylor moved over and sat next to Kathy
"Well, what is it" James asked
"When I'm gone I want Sirius to go out with Taylor" Kathy said half- heartedly
"Why" James asked
"That's what I said" Taylor wrapped her arms around Kathy
"I want Sirius to be happy"
"This isn't the way to do it, I wont do it" Taylor said sadly
"You like Sirius don't you"
"Yeah, but-"
"But nothing, promise me you'll do it" Kathy grabbed Taylor's hands
"I promise I'll be there for him, nothing else"
"James you know what you have to do tonight right?"
"Yeah"
"Good luck" Kathy gave him a hug

That night Kristy, Lily, and Taylor sat around a fire in the library, drinking hot chocolate.
Taylor: (excitedly) The fire works are going to start in around twenty minutes
Kristy: what time is it?
Taylor: almost 11:10p.m.
Lily: Why are the fireworks so late?
Taylor: it's in honor of the Stupid Cupids Dumbledore wants the older students to see them off
Kristy/ Lily: Oh
Lily: (looking around) Have you guys seen the marauders, or Kathy lately
Kristy: (giggling) Kathy and Sirius are over there
She pointed to a couch on the far side of the library. Kathy was leaned against the side of the couch with Sirius practically over her, making out.
Kristy: do you think their French kissing?
Lily: I don't know, but doesn't she look happy
Taylor: I wish I had something like that
Kristy: are you kidding, you wish to have that with him
Taylor: shut up
Lily: I'd take anything with that much passion
James: Hey guys
Taylor/ Kristy/ Lily: hi
James: so we're watching Sirius make out
Lily: ahh. James don't sneak up on people like that
James: (laughing) you were drooling
Lily: was not
James laughed when Lily and the others turned red
Taylor mouthed 'is it done' behind Lily, making James nodded
Remus: Hey guys
Everyone: Hey
Remus: Look at Sirius go
James: I'll go break it up, Remus still have your water bottle
Remus: yeah, why?
Remus handed James a water bottle
James: watch and learn
Lily: James don't
But it was to late James already levitated the bottle and dumped it over Sirius and Kathy's head.
"Cool off Padfoot" James hollered
"Prongs, tomorrow you're so dead" Sirius and Kathy walked over hand in hand to the group
"You guys ready to go" Remus offered one of his arms to Kristy and the other to Taylor
Lily took James hand as they headed outside
"What happened to all the snow" Kristy said impressed
"Not to mention the cold weather" Kathy added
"Dumbledore put a spell on the grounds to make it feel like a worm summers night" James said as the crowd separated Lily and him from the group.
Sirius pulled Kathy away and they found seats to watch the fire works.
Knowing they wanted their privacy Taylor also slipped away and watched the fireworks with some friends from Ravenclaw.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Within minutes the fire works started Lily leaned on James chest.
"This is so perfect" Lily said
"Wait" James whispered in her ear making the hair on the back of her neck raise
"For what"
"Look"
"Oh my gosh" Lily started smiling
"You did this" Lily watched the fireworks turn into the words,
'I'm sorry for everything Lily please take me back.
I LOVE YOU'
~James~
"Yeah" James smiled
"Will you"
"YES, of course" Lily started to kiss James, she leaned almost jumped on James, he stumbled almost losing his balance before gently bringing her forward to even the kiss. They were so absorbed with each other that they didn't even notice the clock starting to ring.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Kathy looked at Sirius "Oh no"
The clock rang again and again
"Good bye Sirius, don't forget me" Kathy started to cry as the clock rang for the six then the seventh time.
Kathy started to vanish in Sirius's arm; by the time the clock hit twelve she was gone completely, the last thing to go was a tear that had fallen out of her left eye.
"Good bye, Kathy" For the first time in his life Sirius felt his eyes swell in silent tears
