Tsk, Tsk, James

~*~*~

A/N: Mwahaha, I didn't lie! I updated right away! Anyways, this is a LOT about James, and..well..you'll just have to read!

Oh, and this is like, a little bit after Remus gets back from being a werewolf (nothing interesting happened during that time so I'm gunna skip it). There's gunna be a lotta different days in here too. It MIGHT be rushed but you'll just have to see!

Since I don't really have a disclaimer..or haven't for a while, I own NOTHING but Kayz and the plot, and of course, Ms.Witch owns MoMo. Though someday *I* will own Remmy!! MWAHAHAHA..*cough*

I think I talked long enough..PLZ R/R!

~*~*~

"Hey, Remus, watcha reading?" Kayz asked. Remus, Kayz, James, Lily, MoMo, Sirius, and Peter were sitting in the Gryffindor Common Room doing their homework. Since it was their last year, they needed to study HARD for the N.E.W.T's..even though that wasn't until February. Lily insisted that they'd have an early start, however.

"Nothing," Remus whispered, stuffing the parchment into his pocket. "It's getting pretty late, I'm going to head up to bed. Night." He got up and headed straight to the boy's dorm.

"He must be tired, considering it's only 7:00," Lily said, checking her watch. Kayz was still watching the closed door to where Remus had left. . .

~*~

"Oh, jeez, we're going to be late!" Kayz said, running to the Divination room, along with James, Lily, MoMo, Sirius, and Peter; they had no idea where Remus was. They all overslept (even Lily, who studied half the night) and now they had less then a minute to get to class.

With 30 seconds left before class started, they reached the ladder to the Divination room, and climbed it quickly. James, being the first to the ladder, so the first on it, opened the trapped door.

"Ah ha!" he said as he climbed into the classroom. "On time, Professor Fegwis!"

"Just barely, Mr. Potter," the professor said. She looked almost like a Professor Twelwany wannabe, without the misty voice. (A/N: I dunno if that's how you spell her name, I don't have my book with me and I'm too lazy to get it). "Ah, it seems the whole crew is here. Next time you might not be so lucky. You all best buy a watch. Now take your seats." James, who was mimicking Professor Fegwis unnoticeably, lead the way to the end of the classroom. On the way, they passed Snape and Malfoy, who were both snickering. Snape whispered, 'If only you had enough money to BUY a watch, Potter!' Without warning, James took out his wand and pointed it at Snape, who stopped laughing immediately.

"Mr. Potter! Put your wand down at ONCE!" Professor Fegwis yelled, and James slowly did so. "20 points from Gryffindow, Potter! The next time you do such an innapropriate thing, you will have your Head Boy Badge taken away!" James stuffed his wand in his pocket and went to the back of the room without a word; you could tell he was beyond anger.

"Now..let's begin class," Professor Fegwis said, after the class calmed down. "We will be doing palm reading, so get with a partner and practice a little bit. I'm assuming all of you read the chapter of Palm Reading I assigned yesturday?"

"Un bloody likely," James whispered, crossing his arms. Almost everyone had a partner. James was with Lily and Sirius was with MoMo, but Kayz, who would have been with Remus if he was there, was left to be with Peter.

"Um..professor?!" Kayz said, raising her hand. "Do you know where Remus is?"

"He's feeling a bit ill, and will not show up for today's class," Professor Fegwis said. Kayz put her hand down. 'Why is he sick? He seemed fine yesturday, and he never skives off classes even if he WAS sick' she thought, and sighed.

"Do you want me to read your palm or do you want to read mine?" Peter said, snapping Kayz out of her thoughts.

"Huh? Oh..I'll test you first, I guess," Kayz said, and tried to remember what she read yesturday..or what she sort of read. After a few minutes, she couldn't conclude anything so she decided to make things up.

"Let's see..your future is bright..and um..you will do hard work, but for a lot of gold..um..and..let's see..you will be single for a while but will, before death, find..um..true love," Kayz said.

"Well, that's pretty cool.." Peter said. "Let me try you know.." Kayz slowly held her hand out, sickened by the thought that Peter was going to take it. Just when he was about to get it, the bell rang, and Kayz quickly pulled her hand back.

"Read the next chapter to Palm Reading tonight!" Professor Fegwis said over the chattering. Kayz was the first out, but waited for her friends.

"What has gotten INTO you, James?" Lily said as they climbed down the ladder. "You're lucky Professor Fegwis didn't take away your badge!"

"Snape's lucky I didn't take off his huge nose," James muttered.

"I wonder where Remus is?" Lily asked after a few minutes silence, while they headed to Potions..the most hated subject.

"I hope he's alright," Kayz said. They got into Potions, on time, and took their seats, which were also in the back.

"We will be brewing a Draught Potion today..you should all have read about that last week. The instructions are on the board, so there is no excuse to get them mixed up..unless you need glasses..or a new pair," Professor McFrant said, looking at James, who was glaring at him. You can say that Professor McFrant to James are like a Snape to Harry.

"James, don't say anything," Lily whispered. James calmed down and started to brew his potion quietly.

"I wonder how Remus is.." Kayz whispered to MoMo and Lily.

"He's probably fine, maybe just a stomach ache," Lily whispered back. Kayz nodded and got back to her potion. It turned orange while practically everyone elses turned green.

"Lily..am I the only right one, or the only wrong one..?" Kayz asked her.

"Um..I'm afraid wrong.." Lily said. "Did you add everything?"

"I think.. oh, no! I forgot the newts tail!" Kayz said, slapping her forehead. "Maybe if I just add it now.." She took the newts tail and dropped it in. Her cauldren started smoking and crackling and then there was a small, 'Boom!'. Everyone started caughing as the smoke started to disappear.

"Well, Miss Pierce, you seem to have read the instructions wrong," Professor McFrant said, smirking. "Then again, that's no surprise with a brain that size, anyone could get a simple potion wrong. Maybe you should spend more time learning then being a lazy girl with useless dreams." Kayz looked at the ground with tears stinging her eyes.

"You aren't so smart yourself, PROFESSOR! You like to pick on students who have eveything YOU don't?" James suddenly yelled out, standing up. "If you weren't such a failure in school, you might be doing something USEFUL instead of making yourself feel inferior and everyone else feel like CRAP!"

There was a silent pause where McFrant and James glared at each other. No one dared spoke or even breathed loudly, afraid they'd miss something. Finally, McFrant spoke.

"50 points from Gryffindor, and 2 weeks detention. Not to mention your badge will be taken away," he said, and he went to write something down. "Take this to Professor McGonagall now." James angrily got up from his seat, put his bag over his shoulder, and took the paper from McFrant and slammed the door closed. There was complete silence until the professor spoke again.

"Class is over. Put some of your potion into your flask and put it on my desk on your way out," he said, and everyone followed his orders.

"I can't BELIEVE McFrant!" Lily said as they left the dungeons. "That was TOTALLY RUDE!"

"But true," Kayz said, sighing. "I should spend time on my work."

"Oh, come on! He's never right," MoMo said. "He's as dull as..I don't know..a messed up pencil?"

"That's true," Sirius said. "Hey, how about we go back and kick McFrant in thr face?" Everyone stared at him. "Or not.." A few silent minutes passed. . .

"I wonder what happened to James?" Lily asked as they turned the corner to get to the Great Hall for lunch.

"He's probably in a LOT of trouble," Sirius said.

"Or he's sitting down," MoMo said when they entered the Great Hall. James was sitting down with his head in his right hand.

"Hey, James," Lily said as they reached him.

"Hey," he replied in a small voice. Lily sat on his right; Kayz on his left; MoMo Sirius, and Peter across from them.

"What happened with McGonagall?" MoMo asked.

"Well, I tried to explain to her what happened, but she kept chewing me up," James said. "So, yeah, I have two weeks of cleaning practically the whole castle and..well, you heard the rest."

"Oh, I'm sorry James," Kayz said.

"Woah, wait, it isn't your fault McFrant has HUGE issues," James said, smiling. "That's his own fault."

"But still.." Kayz said. "Thanks a lot, James! You're the best bro ever!" Kayz gave him a huge, and he hugged back.

"No problem, he desreved reality," James said. "So if I'm your bro, and I'm older then you, I get to push you around!"

"Think twice," Kayz said, pushing him off the bench.

"Ok, I guess not," James said laughing, along with everyone else. Only, Kayz was still worried about Remus. Was he really ok? She needed to find him ASAP.

"I wonder who the new Head Boy will be?" MoMo asked.

"Hopefully someone I can stand," Lily said. Just as she said that, Malfoy came in, surrounded by loads of Slytherins.

"I knew I should've been Head Boy," he said, showing off a shiny badge. "I'm way smarter then Potter." He smircked over at James. "Though they did good on the Head Girl." He winked at Lily, and walked over to the Slytherin table. At that moment, James started to get up from the table with his wand out.

"James, forget it!" Lily said, grabbing his shoulders to get him to sit back down.

"He's not worth it," Kayz said, trying to get him down as well. "Just ignore whatever he says!" Reluctantly, James sat back down.

"Lily, if he lays a finger on you.." he said, steaming mad.

"Don't worry, he won't," Lily said. They all sat in silence for the rest of lunch. . . .
