Chapter 2—You've Got to be Kidding Me!
Early Two Days Later (Sunday) "Lily! Wake up you lazy ass!" Yelled Mel into Lily's ear as Mandy tore the covers off of Lily's tiny body. Lily shuddered as the still cold air wrapped itself around her. She muttered a summoning charm, and got her blanket back. "I got an Idea" whispered Mandy slyly to Mel. "Lily! OWLS are today, your gonna be late!" "OH MY GOSH, WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME? DON'T JUST STAND THERE, WE GOTTA GET GOING GIRLS!" Lily yelled as she jumped out of bed and hurriedly put her robes on backwards.
Mandy and MJ were laughing so hard they thought their sides were about burst open. "What? What are you two idi-"Lily stopped, realization finally dawning on her. She ran to the calendar- it was a week until the OWLs.. She pivoted on the spot, to face her two friends who now had looks of terror on their face. Lily turned bright red. "Don't you two ever do that to me, you know how important school is to me, and that I have been working extra hard to get an Excellent on OWLs so I can have the career of my dreams— a transfiguration teacher!
They both apologized, and helped Lily with her robes. All three headed down to breakfast. Coincidently, so were the marauders. Lily ran right into James.
"OOF! Watch were your going Evans." James said smoothing out his robes. "Sorry, I couldn't here you, I must have PAINT in my ears!" Lily said dangerously. "Uh, walk you to breakfast Mandy?" Sirius asked politely, offering his arm to her. "Uh, no, thanks, I can do it my self." Mandy said avoiding Sirius's stare. "Hey Mel!" Rem had joined in the conversation "Rem! What's up buddy? Walk me to Breakfast? Please?" Mel said pleadingly "Well, I dunno...so many other girls wanted me to walk them, but, I guess I could make an exception for you." Remus replied taking her arm.
The thing about the marauders and Lily, AJ and MJ is that, AJ, and Lily don't really like the boys, but, MJ is very good friends with them, even James. This is probably because she was saved by them from Malfoy on the train ride home 2nd year.
~~*f L a S h B a C k*~~
Melina was walking out of the bathroom on the train and singing an old song written by some muggle group. It was her favorite, It went something like "Do you believe in magic, of a young girl's heart?" and so on. She wasn't really looking where she was going, she thought she was going back to her compartment, but headed the wrong way. She walked in on Malfoy ,surprisingly with out his little "posse".
"Well, if it isn't the school snogger?" Malfoy snapped coldly. As Mel turned to leave as quickly as possible, Malfoy grabbed her arm and said "C'mon, lets have a kiss." He forced her into a disgusting, horrible kiss. He tried to slip his hand up her skirt, and she screamed, while kicking and waving her arms like a mad women. "I didn't know you liked it rough baby, hehe." Malfoy sneered. This just caused MJ to scream again. She was terrified of what would happen. Would he rape her? Would he let he go? She just didn't know, and that scared her even more. As he forcingly unbuttoned her shirt and was starting to unzip his pants. He said "Well, MJ, hope your ready for me, hehe, god knows I've wanted this for along time." The doors flew open and in stormed in the boys, wands out and ready to attack. "What's all the screaming abou--Oh my god! I knew you were low Malfie-boy, but, C'mon! Forcing a girl to-...its just-...there are rules you know!" said Sirius shocked as ever. Mel ran to the first person she could get to—Remus. He just held her, he didn't know what else to do. I mean, a stranger was crying in his chest—with out a top on. "Your one sick puppy! You don't deserve our time!" Said James turning on his heel, and the others followed.
They led Mel to her compartment, and the other girls thanked them graciously—even Lily (then again, this was before she hated him—more on that later). The girls asked if they would like to sit with them the rest of the way, and they accepted. The ride went smoothly—almost. Lily and James got into a bit of a, hmm, uh, argument we'll say. Again, more on that later.
~~*e N d F l A s H b A c K*~~
At Breakfast
"So, Rem? What are you up to today?" asked Mel as she nibbled at her pancakes—very lady-like I might add. "What do you want?" Remus responded smiling at her, putting his fork down. "What? I can't hang out with you? I can't take an interest in your life?" "Well, your One-not acting like this is your last meal, like you usually do and Two- Your hair Is up, you hate putting your hair up, you only do it because you know I like it, so, what do I have to do?" "Get James to lighten up on Lils." "I've tried, numerous times, its hopeless." "Please, try harder!" "Ok, I'll try." "Pinky promise?" she said holding her pinky finger out. "Fine." Remus said taking her pinky with his.
~*~Meanwhile~*~ "So, uh, Mandy?" Sirius asked "What!?!" Mandy responded irritated she was being followed "Uh...what time should I meet you for tutoring, and where?" he asked hopingly "6:30, in front of the common room fire place." "Okay, thanks again for helping me. You have no idea how much I appreciate this" Sirius said stabbing a rather large pile of pancakes and drowning them in syrup. Mandy look disgusted "You're, uh, welcome, suddenly, I'm not very hungry." She said watching Sirius stuff two pancakes at a time into his mouth. He swallowed hard "Really? Why?" "I don't know, I think I'm gonna go back to the dormitories and catch up on some of my...yeah, bye" she finished. She knew—just as well as he did—she had no homework or anything to "catch up on". "Reminds me of Mel when there is tortillas on the table." Mandy mumbled to her self as she got up.
~*~After Mel is done talking to Remus, she goes to lily~*~ "Lils? You there? Helloooooooooooo?" MJ asked waving a hand in front of Lily's face "Huh? Oh, yeah, I'm here" Lily said with a start "So, its only a week till school is out, what are you doing this summer?" "Uh, probably nothing-as usual." "Oh, c'mon, I know you're gonna do something..." "Well, Mum wrote me and said something about having some company spend the last few weeks with us, but, she didn't tell me who, some new friends Dad met's brother's son and his stupid friend or something like that.." "Why can't they stay with one of their parents?" Mel questioned slightly confused "Something about they are leaving town, and would really appreciate it." "So, let me get this straight, your mum and dad agreed to have some teenagers they, nor you have ever met before just stay with you?" "Yup, here, look at the letter." Said Lily said pointing to a neatly folded piece of paper laying on top of a robin egg blue envelope. It read-
Dear Lily, Hope you studying Is going well. I believe you said something about a very important exam coming up, good luck.
I am writing, however, not to just wish you luck on an exam, otherwise you'd be getting quite a few of these. Anyway, as Summer is approaching quite rapidly, I want to tell you the splendid news that your father and I have just agreed upon.
First of all, we are going to let Petunia's take her trip with Vernon and his family. Also, your father's new friend from the office's (Charles) brother has a son like you. I mean he is a wizard. I believe he goes to your school also, you may even know him. Back to the point darling, David-- Charles' brother—is going out of town with his new wife the last few weeks of the Summer, and Charles and his wife are going to Greece for their anniversary when the children are supposed to come. Honey, what I am getting to is David's son, and his friend will be at our house the last 3 weeks of summer.
Isn't that grand? Perhaps you may even know them.
Well, I must be off. Petty and I are going shopping. Love you,
Kisses- Mum And Dad . Please write back soon, to let us know how you feel, we can call it off
"Wow!" said MJ after she finished the letter. "I know, Now, I have to put up with two guys during my last 3 weeks of school!" "Well, tell em, just write back saying you don't want to." "That's the thing, I know that they want me to have them over so I won't be too 'anti-social' as my Aunt Carol puts it." "Oh well." "Hey, have you done your potions essay yet?" asked Lily as she wanted to change the subject. "Oh, thanks for reminding me...will you put with it? PLEASE?" Mel said pleadingly "Sure, I've got nothing better to do." Lily shrugged gathering her things, but leaving the letter.
~*~James POV~*~ James saw the letter left there. (A/N: "*" this is James voice in his head and "~" is him[sorry Mel, I had too]) ~Oh no, Lily left this, Oh well, I'll give it back to her later *go on, read it ~I may be incredibly mean to her, but, mail is personal *You know you want to ~No, I'm gonna give it back later *C'mon, just a peek ~No, ya know what, just to shut you up, I'm gonna give it back right now. *And how will you explain that you have this letter from her mother addressed to her? ~Simple, I'll tell her I found it *Yeah, cuz she'll totally buy that ~She will, I'll just use my charm on her *Puh-lease, spare me the "Potter Charm" speech ~Hey, it works, what can I say? *Just read a little ~Will it make you hush up? *Yupper-dee-doo ~Will it also make you NEVER say that again? *Okay ~Okay
James opened the letter, and skimmed over it quickly. A huge grin spread across his face. As he walked down the corridor, re-reading the letter, he ran smack into Sirius and Remus who had come to look for him. You guys? You've got to read this. He said handing them the letter.
All Sirius could say was "You've got to be kidding me!" as he cracked a very big malicious grin.
~*~Later that afternoon~*~ "Thank you so much for the help on the essay Lils" Mel said graciously "Eh, you knew most of it, I mean, I think we were the only ones who were actually awake and paying attention during ways to kill monster molds of Bulgaria." "I know, who knew that regular bread mold could grow to 7 feet tall and eat you?" The girls were giggling when suddenly James strutted in. Well, they couldn't actually see him, but, they did see the swarms of girls run over to just get a glimpse of him. "Brainless morons." Mel said "Nope, just brainless." Lily responded coolly "Heh, you said it sister. Oh, sorry, 'sisters'." Said Remus, popping out of no where. "Rem! Haven't seen you in ages!" said Mel jumping up and giving Remus a great big bear hug. "Uh, Mel, by the color of Remus' face, I'd say human life-forms do need air every once in a while." Lily chuckled. "Oh, sorry." Mel said. "Its....okay...really." Remus said in between large gulps of air. "Why is Remus impersonating a fish out of water?" Mandy whispered as she sat down beside Lily. "Oh, that?" Lily said nodding her head in Remus' direction." Mel gave him one of her bear hugs" "Oh, that all?" "Yup, sorry to bust your bubble." "Remus?" "Yes Miss MacKenzie?" Remus responded to Mandy, looking over the rims of his silver-rimed glasses. "Is Sirius really as stupid as he looks?" "Sirius? No, he's brilliant!" "Brilliant?" "Yeah, just 'cause he has anew girl every week, and sleeps in class all the time, he always gets top marks, James too for that matter" Remus stated like it was the most obvious thing in the word, but, with out being rude. "You gotta be kidding me, are you absolutely sure we're talking about the same person?" Mandy said astonished "Yeah.Why?" "He asked me to tutor him tonight in transfiguration, and I agreed." AJ said feeling quite stupid. "I have no idea why he would ask you that, transfiguration is his best, not to mention favorite subject." Remus said, with a slight look of confusion on his face now. They both turned their heads to look at Sirius, he was surrounded by girls. He caught Mandy's eye, and turned, waved and winked. "THAT STUPID PRAT!" Mandy said sternly glaring at Sirius "HE THINKS HE CAN MAKE A FOOL OUT OF ME? I BET ITS SOME STUPID TRICK, WELL, THE TABLES ARE TURNED MY FRIEND, THE TABLES ARE TURNED." She said as she forced a smile and waved back at Sirius.
~*~At dinner~*~ "So, Mandy? 6 right?" Sirius said smiling across the table "6:30" Mandy said stabbing a piece of potato rather roughly. "Oh, so...uh, what are you going to, uh...help me with?" Sirius said as he saw Mandy was very upset about something. "Everything...very quickly, I figure it will only go to about, hmm...." She looked at the ceiling, pretending to think"...8? Sound good?" "8? That's it? That's not even 2 hours!" "Well, I don't want to keep you from your fans too long." "What, the bloody hell, are you going on about?" "Oh, nothing, I just feel you have a good grasp on things, so, We won't be doing that much." "No, I need, you hear me? I need you, I mean I need your help." "Where are you having trouble?" "Uh, in that whole, animigus thing." "You mean, transforming from human into animal?" "Yeah, yeah that." "First of all, I can't teach you that. Second of all, you don't need that, we haven't learned that, and most likely won't, its WAY to hard." Mandy declared "Oh, well, also in-" "So, I guess you won't be needing me...bye." She said as if it where one long word. She quickly got up and walked out of the great hall before Sirius could say anything/ James poked Sirius extremely hard in the ribs and glared at him. "OUCH! What the hell was that for mate?" Sirius said to James, rather annoyed. "'Uh, well, that whole animigus part.'" James mocked. "What the hell, you know that is our secret!" "Sorry Prongs, its just the first thing that popped into my head." Sirius revealed rather ashamed of himself. "Just, please, don't let it "pop" again...ok?" "Sure."
The exams flew by and the last night was wonderful. The last feast in the great hall that year would defiantly be memorable, as, it just happened to land on Professor Boulderblock's 36th birthday. She was a very pretty women. She basically reminded everyone of Jess, just all grown up. Ms. B as we they called her was the school nurse. On average, she had about 8 people(ok, guys)-a week- come into the hospital wing complaining of a headache or some stupid nonsense like that.
Anyhow, Lily was extremely happy to come home. The train ride went smoothly, except for James and Sirius and their games of exploding snap that nearly lit Lily's hair a flame.
