A/N: Here's another chapter for you all. Enjoy.
Chapter 5.
"No, no, no, and again no." Lily said sitting on her bed. Hermione sighed. "Come on, Lily. Don't leave me hanging. I don't want to go by myself. You wouldn't leave me alone with four boys, would you?" She asked laying on her side facing Lily. Lily rolled her eyes abit."Hermione, if you want to go, then you can go. But I'm not." She said. Hermione layed on her back. "Lily, where's your sense of adventure? Are you telling me you'd rather be in here all night and not look at the stars when it's a perfect night for star gazing?" She asked. Lily was quiet again.
She was looking at Hermione from the corner of her eyes. "Who's all going?" She asked. Hermione knew that Lily was starting to cave in. She smiled. "Just the boys and me. But if you don't go with me I won't. I don't want to get stuck with four boys by myself." Lily sighed. She then nodded. "Alright. I'll go." She said. Hermione smiled. "Thank you so much, Lily. I'm sure it's not going to be bad." She said. Lily nodded. "And if it does get bad, you have to wear a button that says I love Slytherins." She said. Hermione looked disqusted. "Eww. Your sick in the head you know that, right?" She said. Lily laughed.
Later that night, everyone else was asleep. Hermione pulled on some bell bottom pants that McGonagall had ordered for her. She pulled on a red tee shirt with a peace sign on it. She pulled her hair back and then grabber her light blue sweater. Lily was wearing bell bottoms that had a small flower embroidery on the bottom. She also wore a long sleeve purple shirt. She left her hair hanging down.
The two teen girls went down the stairs quietly. The four boys were waiting on the couch and mushy chairs when the girls went down. They were stunned to see Lily with Hermione. "Hey. Your coming too, Lily?" James asked running his hand through his hair. Lily smiled abit. "Sure why not? I'm not going to let Hermione be by herself with you three idiots." She said. The four boys looked around. "Huh? Three?" Sirius asked. Lily nodded. "Yeah. You, James and Peter. Remus is the only one with sense. He only goes with you guys along with your dumb plans because you drag him along." She said with a smirk.
Remus smiled biting his lip abit trying not to laugh. Hermione nudged Lily trying not to laugh. James shrugged. "Well if we're going to go, let's go." He said. He looked at Remus who had the map. "Is it close and clear?" He asked. Remus looked at the map. "Yeah for now." he said. The six went through the potrait hole. Remus used his wand for some light.
They finally reached the Astronomy tower and went up the stairs. Hermione started to tremble abit. She hated this tower right now. Flashs of what happened went through her mind. She stopped for a second then continued behind James, Lily, and Sirius. Remus had seen her shudder and leaned forward.
"Hey. You okay?" He whispered softly. Hermione glanced over at him and smiled softly. "Yeah. I'm alright. Just remembering falling down these things." She whispered back. Remus nodded. He stepped up beside her and put his arm around her waist. "I'll hold on to you to you won't slip and fall again, okay?" he said with a smile. Hermione felt herself blush but she nodded. "Okay." She whispered to him. Behind them, Peter stared at Remus. Abit of jealousy filled his eyes.
They all finally reached the top. It was quite dark up at the top of the tower. But the stars shone brightly like diamonds in the sky. There was a girl up there already and that made Hermione and Lily abit nervous. But she smiled and stood. "It's about time you got here. I've been waiting for awhile." She said. Sirius grinned and stepped next to her.
"Just to let you know, this is Amber Brachs. She's in Hufflepuff. I have invited her to join us tonight." He said grinning. Everyone rolled their eyes. Hermione didn't understand but she smiled anyways. She just nodded. Sirius wrapped his arm around Amber and waved his wand. Several blankets appeared. "So let's all stargaze." He said grinning.
Hermione just stood by the edge and looked upward. She was amazed by all the stars. She had never done this with Ron and Harry. She smiled as she traced several stars with her finger. Remus leaned against the wall beside her. "What're you doing?" He asked. Hermione just kept tracing stars. "Looking for shapes. I've always loved the stars. They're so cool." She said. Remus smiled abit staring upward. "Shapes, huh? What kind of shapes?" James asked looking upward.
Hermione glanced at him then looked back up. "Well all kinds. Look, that group of stars looks like a.....train." She said pointing straight up. Everyone tilted their heads to look. Lily's eyes went wider. "Hey! They do look like a train if you tilt your head abit this way." She said. The others tilt their heads.
Sirius smiled and laughed abit. "Hey, that's cool. I've never done this before." He said. Amber nodded. "This was a good idea." She said. James pointed up. "Look at that one. It looks like a golden snitch wizzing through the air." He said. Everyone laughed. Peter pointed. "That group of stars looks like a goblet of pumpkin juice." he said then his stomache growled as if he was hungry. Everyone looked at him then laughed. Peter blushed and cowered abit.
Hermione just smiled. "Good imagination, Peter." She said. Everyone nodded with smiles. Then Remus pointed up. "Look. A shooting star." He said. Hermione looked up and saw it. She smiled brightly. "Starlight, Starbright, first star I see tonight. I wish you may, I wish you might. Grant me my wish that I wish tonight." She chanted her favorite rhyme.
Everyone looked at her. "What's that?" Lily asked. Hermione looked at her. "Huh? Oh. It's just a rhyme my mother told me when I was a child. Whenever you see a shooting star, you chant that rhyme and make a wish. If your lucky, your wish may come true. I always believed that when I was a child." She told them.
Everyone smiled. "That is so cool. Does it work?" James asked. Hermione tilted her head abit. "Sometimes. It hasn't worked for me but it's pretty fun." She said. Remus studied Hermione. "Did you make a wish?" He asked. Hermione shook her head. "I can't think of anything right now that I want." She said.
James smiled abit. "Can I take the shooting star then?" He asked. Hermione waved her hand with a nod. "Be my guest." She said. James sat up. "Okay. Um....how do you say the rhyme again?" He asked. Hermione chanted it for him.
Then he closed his eyes. "Okay. Starlight, Starbright. First star I see tonight. I wish you may, I wish you might. Grant me my wish that I wish tonight." he said softly. Then he wrinkled his nose as he thought of his wish. Everyone was studying him. Then he opened his eyes and grinned. "Got it." He said. Sirius hugged Amber close. "Well? What was your wish?" He asked.
James shook his head. "Nuh-uh. I'm not telling you guys. I want it to come true." He said. Remus smirked. "Come on, Prongs. Just tell us. It might not even come true anyways." He said. James bit his lip. "Well...." He paused glancing at Lily. "Naw. It's stupid." He said. Hermione shook her head. "No wish is stupid, James." She said. James grumbled abit and covered his head with his blanket. "Okay. I wished that Lily would like me." He muttered under his blanket.
Everyone smiled even Lily. She just shook her head smiling. She grabbed James's blanket and pulled it off. He glanced at her. Lily smiled at him. She looked at Hermione then back at him. "James, I'll be completely honest with you. I already do like you." She said. James looked like his dreams had just come true. "Really?" He asked excitedly. Lily nodded and leaned against him putting her head on his shoulder. Everyone just smiled and laughed silently. Hermione looked up.
They were quiet for a long time. Sirius and Amber began snogging, which Hermione understood why everyone rolled their eyes. She just turned her back on them and tried to block out the smacking of the lips.
A cold breeze blew on them. Everyone was now wrapped in a blanket besides Hermione and Remus. Remus was sitting by Peter staring upward. He noticed that Hermione began shivering. He grabbed a blanket and stood. No one but Peter paid attention. James and Lily began making out theirselves. Remus put the blanket around Hermione's shoulders. She smiled at him and clung to the blanket. She gave him a nod of thanks then looked over towards the lake. The stars were dancing over them. Remus was watching her.
"So what was it like at your old school?" He asked. Hermione glanced at him then stared towards the lake. "It's not really different from here. I had a few friends there. Some really great friends. I miss them alot." She said. Remus smiled. "You'll probably see them again soon. What are they like?" He asked.
Hermione bit her lip. "They're not really very much different from you guys. We used to have small adventures. Go into the forest, get chased by werewolves and giant spiders and that sort."
Remus frowned abit. "W-werewolves?" He asked raising his eyebrow. Hermione froze for a second and then smiled. "Yeah. Sort of. Actually they were just plain wolves. We only pretended that they were werewolves. It was alot of fun actually." She said actually lying about the 'fun' part. Remus smiled abit.
"Sure sounds like it. So it was so fun that you loved it, right? But was there any downsides?" he asked. Hermione sighed abit. She gave a nod. "Plenty of them. As you've already seen, I'm pretty smart with spells and stuff. So I was sometimes called a Miss Know-it-all. I couldn't help it really. I just loved reading all the books in the library and learning things. One of my friends kind of got annoyed all the time because of my habits of reading every single book he didn't. I did have a small habit of correcting him every single time he got something wrong. I guess it annoyed him alot. He wanted to prove that he could do things on his own."She told him.
Remus lowered his head. "Sounds abit like Sirius. He gets mad sometimes when I end up correcting his mistakes." He whispered. Hermione smiled glancing over her shoulder at Sirius.
He was too busy smothering the Hufflepuff girl in kisses. Hermione then remembered the horrible event that had happened to Sirius. His own cousin, Bellatrix Lestrange, killed him. Hermione felt tears come to her eyes. She turned her face away. Remus had seen the pain in her eyes. He tilted his head abit. "Hermione?" He whispered. Hermione didn't answer.
She looked over her shoulder again at James and Lily this time. She remembered seeing the happy faces of the two in Harry's photo album. She wanted to just tell them right there. Tell James and Lily that they would be killed by Voldemort. Tell Sirius that he would be killed by his cousin.
She looked over at Peter who looked so innocent just staring upward at the stars. He wasn't innocent! He's the one who killed Lily and James! He's the one who helped Voldemort try to kill Harry! Hermione wanted to strangle him right there. To tell him that if he tried to hurt them, she'd kill him. But she shook her head and looked up at the stars. Tears were falling down her cheeks.
Remus was confused. He was watching her cry right there. He didn't know why she kept glancing over at the others. He placed his hand on her back making her jump abit. She looked at him. Remus tilted his head in confusion. "Are you okay?" He asked. Hermione just wiped her face and smiled. "Yeah. I'm fine. Just abit tired that's all." She said. Remus tilted his head. "Are you sure?" He asked. Hermione nodded. She sat down and folded her arms. Remus sat next to her watching her curiously. He then glanced at his watch. "Guys, it's going on midnight. I think we better head." He said. Everyone sat up straight.
Sirius grumbled. "Aw, Moony. You take away all the fun." he said. Hermione laughed. Remus rose an eyebrow at him then glanced at the map. His eyes went abit wide. "Oh shit!" He whispered. Everyone tensed. "What?" James asked getting to his feet. Hermione leaned over and looked at the map. "It's Filch. He's coming this way." He said. Everyone jumped up to their feet. Sirius waved his wand and the blankets disappeared. "Let's get out of here!" He whispered.
James nodded. "Let's split up. Lily, you come with me. Remus and Hermione, you guys go together. Sirius, Amber and Peter, you guys stick together!" He said. Everyone nodded. They hurried down the stairs and split up.
Hermione and Remus looked around the corner and hurried down the hall way. They couldn't see Filch. They hurried down the hallway. They could see James and Lily up ahead. The two waved to them saying it was close and clear. Hermione and Remus nodded and hurried towards them.
"Alright. Let's go." Remus said. The four crawled through the potrait and laughed abit. They sat on the couch and chairs for abit. "Well that was fun." James said. Remus blew out a sigh of relief.
Just then Sirius pushed through the portrait hole. The four stared. "Where's Peter?" James asked. Sirius looked around. "Isn't he here yet?" He asked. Remus whipped out the map and looked at it. "I solemely swear I'm up to no good."
The map of the castle appeared. He was examining it. He winced. "Uh oh. He's on the stairs with Filch. Most likely he's been caught." He said. Everyone grumbled abit. James gave Sirius a look. "I thought he was with you." He said. Sirius sighed. "Amber wanted me to walk her back to her house. So I did. I told Wormtail to just go ahead." he said. Remus shook his head. "Sirius, you know that Peter can't remember things very much. He always gets lost."
Sirius sighed shaking his head. "I'm really sorry." He said. James shook his head and ran his hand through his hair. "Say that to Peter when he gets out of trouble." he said. Sirius nodded. Hermione looked at Lily. "Well, I'm going to bed now. See you guys in the morning." She said. Everyone nodded.Hermione went up the stairs to the girls dorm. Lily soon joined her. Hermione was lying on her bed when she came in.
"Did Peter get back yet?" She asked in a whisper. Lily nodded. "He got into big trouble. Filch caught him on the stairs. He's so mad that he's not talking to Sirius right now. Neither to Remus or James." She said sitting on her bed. Hermione rolled on to her side. "Lily, I've got a question." She said. Lily was pulling off her shoes. "Okay. Shoot." She said. Hermione nodded. "How much do you know about Peter?" She asked. Lily looked right at her.
She rose an eyebrow. "Not much. Why? Do you like him?" She asked. Hermione shook her head. "Not really. There's something fishy about him. I know he's friends with Remus, James and Sirius. But I'm just abit confused by him. That's all."
She wanted to mention that later he might just be a down right liar and traitor but she kept it to herself. Lily sighed as if with relief. "You too, huh? I know how you feel. I don't like him that much. Sometimes I even wonder why he's even in Gryffindor." She said. Hermione nodded. "Same here." She said. Lily quickly pulled on her nightgown. Then she climbed into bed. "Night, Hermione." She said. Hermione nodded. "Night." She said and then closed her eyes.
A/N: Alright. That's it for Chapter 5. Tell me what you think.
Chapter 5.
"No, no, no, and again no." Lily said sitting on her bed. Hermione sighed. "Come on, Lily. Don't leave me hanging. I don't want to go by myself.
