1st year started with flying colours. James, Remus, Elena and Lily came out top of their classes, and earned great praise from their parents. Mena and Kris came close in second, but were also incredibly extra curricular. Kris started her own muggle-music club, that consisted mostly of The Marauders, The Ixies, Rebella Stefane (a 3rd year from Hufflepuff), Raven Stiller (another Gryffindor 1st year), and Christopher Macintosh, a Ravenclaw boy, who had his bright blue eyes paying close attention to Elena, whom constantly turned him down, and scolded him for being stupid and big-headed. Katie, though, had an awful time in her social life. Mercedes and her gang, constantly picked on her, once until she broke down in tears in front of the whole student population. It was horrible, but the Ixies pranked them like there was no tomorrow(they also got a month's detention, much to the dismay of Lily and Elena). It was an okay year. With one minor (more like MAJOR) exception...Aidan. He was Mercedes' slave (he like worshipped her! It's rumoured he has a shrine dedicated to her in his closet), and as payback for all the pranks, Mercedes made Aidan date Kristin, while of course he was cheating on her, every night with a different girl. He also dissed her whenever she wasn't there. He led Kris on, and when she trusted him, he shattered her hope, trust, and self esteem. After that she spent the whole weekend crying in her bed, while the Ixies tried to comfort her and tell her Aidan was stupid and he was a stupid, mindless Mercedes slave, where his sole purpose in life was to serve her. And of course this helped Kris (insulting people who she hates usually does). But of COURSE, they kept this entire secret from The Marauders...they didn't want them to interfere and beat him up. Oh no, the Ixies were going to take care of him, girly style.
The Marauders and the Ixies were often head-to-head in a 'friendly' competition. Most of the time they were hung out together but the rest of the time they competed for popularity, fame, and pranking schemes. Elena, the leader of the pranks, was determined, ambitious, and coldly calculating. She usually got what she wanted (no, scratch that, she ALWAYS got what she wanted), so being the leader of the pranks was definitely easy for her. Except for the fact she had a morbid sense of humour. I mean, what is up with that? (Kristin: I'm watching a comedy show!ditsy giggle Elena: I'm watching a show where people KILL EACH OTHER laughs manically). But of course there was James was the leader for the Marauders, who had the same ambition and determination as Elena. They fought CONSTANTLY. But what was odd was the fact that Sirius and Kris couldn't look at each other for too long or they'd start blushing ridiculously. It drove both groups insane. But Kris wasn't the only one Sirius made blush. He'd become the hot stud of the school. Sirius Black the Sexy Prince...as sad as it was...that was his nickname. That wasn't the saddest part yet...everyone called him that. By everyone, that means everyone except the staff, The Ixies, and the rest of the Marauders, who stuck to their own nicknames. Padfoot was Sirius, Prongs was James, Wormtail was Peter, and Moony was Remus. No one knew why they'd chosen these names, and the Marauders were very secretive about it. The Ixies, had chosen nicknames as well, but didn't seem to have some deep dark secret behind it...thank god...The Ixies are confusing enough as it is. Elena was selected as Lixie, Kris was Flixie, Brook was Trixie, Mena was Zixie, Katie was Mixie, and Lily was Kixie. Confusing as it was, they managed to remember who everyone was. It was another mystery of those girls we shall never know.
2nd year was just the same with the exception that Remus started his own band; Kris was vocals and guitar, Elena was vocals and guitar, Mena was bass, Remus was lead vocals, and they'd held auditions for drums and Jerry Parkley, a Hufflepuff 6th year had made the cut. Their band name was plain and simple. The Spaz. The Spaz had chosen because, one day Elena screamed out loud for no reason and threw her book over her shoulder which hit Mercedes in the head. Elena said it was because she was frustrated with her homework, but they all knew it was an excuse to hit Mercedes in the head. No complaints there. Haha. The Spaz was often excused from exams and such to attend Battles of The Bands, at other schools. It'd become quite a trend. When the teachers protested that it was absurd to get out of classes to attend such pointless rendez-vous's, Kris threw a hissyfit and started a riot. That kept the teachers quiet but did not stop them from giving her a weeks detention. Of course, Elena pointedly stayed out of the riot. God, sometimes she was so self-serving. But she was nice too. She let the Ixies and occasionally the Marauders copy off her homework.
And which group was the most popular? Well, the Mauraders were most popular with the girls, and the Ixies were most popular with the guys. So they declared a tie, while Mercedes' group stood angrily on the sidelines.
3rd year didn't go as smoothly. Kris and Sirius got into a huge fight about something and wouldn't speak to each other. The fight was about some girl Sirius started dating. The fight went something like this:
Kris rolled her eyes, when she saw Sirius kiss Rebecca Santori on the cheek. Sirius came and sat down beside Kris and Kris shifted to the end of the couch. Noticing a change in Kris's usual perky mood turned to her.
"You ok?" he asked concerned. Kris scowled.
"Why the hell are you dating such a skank?" Kris blurted out. Sirius was taken aback, but that didn't stop him from rounding on her.
"She happens to be the opposite! If you'd just give her a chance you'd see that she's perfect! I've no idea what's gotten into you these past days but I don't like it," Sirius shouted. Kris looked offended.
"There's nothing wrong with me but maybe you shouldn't spaz out all the time! If YOU would open your eyes and see that she's a player! I've seen her behind the Quidditch stands and everything! She's dating you, Chris Trumphy, Berry Shank, AND Sabastian Christaini! God, would you just open your damn eyes?" Kris said angry tears filling her own. Sirius glared menacingly.
"You're a liar, you just can't stand the fact that I'm dating and you're not," he spat and with that they both ran to their dormatories in no time flat, followed by the rest of their packs.
But eventually Sirius caught Rebecca snogging with Chris Trumphy behind the Quidditch stands just like Kris had said. Kris apologized for being so harsh and crude, and forgave Sirius for being a dough-head. They were closer then, than ever before.They still got into their stupid arguments, for instance fighting about which runes meant what, and what Aerosmith song was better, but all of them knew that eventually they'd be VERY close...
"What TIME is it?" moaned Elena as she crawled out from under her covers. Kris stirred and glanced down at her watch.
"7:30..." Kris replied not bothering to get up. Elena scrunched her eyes up in confusion.
"Why the HELL would I wake up at this time on the first day of Christmas ... HOLIDAYS!" Elena screamed in triumph as she quickly grabbed a towel and headed to the bathroom. Kris chuckled to herself and pulled herself out of bed, for the first day of Christmas holidays , in their 4th year at Hogwarts. Kris tip toed over to Lily's bed and shook her gently. Lily stirred and her eyes shot open.
"Kix! Wake up!" Kris giggled. Lily opened her eyes a tiny bit but shut them again when she saw it was still dark outside. Kris moaned.
"Aw, come on Lils," Kris whined. Lily sighed in defeat.
"Fine, fine..." she got up reluctantly. Kris and Lily pounded on the bathroom door for Elena to finish her hour long cleanse. She said she needed to cleanse her aura, or else she wouldn't have a successful holiday. Kris rolled her eyes and ran in before Lily, and also took an hour long preparations. Lily also pounded on the door until Kris came out, hair nicely brushed, while trying desperately to put it in a ponytail. Lily yelled at her, her temper rising, angry that she had to wait an hour in front of the bathroom. Kris shrugged a sorry and went to go get Elena. When Lily, Elena, and Kris FINALLY felt alive enough they snuck to Brook, Katie, and Mena's dorm. Kris tackled Katie's bed, Elena tackled Mena's, and Lily tackled Brook's. Katie, without a doubt, clambered out happily and ran downstairs in only her sweat shirt and pajama pants, her hair tied messily at the back of her hair. That's when Kris realized that neither her, Lily or Elena were actually dressed after all they went through for brushing their hair and brushing their teeth. Kris grumbled. The other girls in their dorm groaned and covered their ears. They were well versed in the morning rituals of the Ixies, but that didn't mean they liked it.
"God, has anyone heard of sleeping in?" one of them complained.
"I hope not every Canadian acts like them," another groaned.
The Ixies ignored them.
"Katie! Wait up!" Kris tumbled down the stairs following the overly active brunette. She came back minutes later after a lot of kicking and screaming, apparently they hadn't even gone into the Common Room. Brook went into their bathroom and came out showered but still dressed in pajamas, complaining that she shouldn't have gotten up that early and now her eyes would be puffy. Brook had really gotten girly and scared about the little things, much to the dismay of Lily and Kris. Elena, Mena and Lily stayed in the corner talking. Lily looked stressed, Mena also, Elena however couldn't look happier-no wait- that's a lie...She could be as happy as Katie or Kris...which is saying something. Elena smiling stupidly spoke first.
"So? What's happenin?" Elena asked obliviously. Lily sighed and turned away.
"I have something to tell you..." Lily whispered, looking very far away. Elena bounced up and down grinning. Gossip? Elena ADORED gossip. She thrived on it. She, like, FED off gossip. Seriously, it was creepy.
"What is it Lils?" Elena asked, eager for more gossip. Lily sighed again; she looked in the window pointedly averting her eyes. "Elena, no gossiping," she told the girl fiercely. Elena grumbled. "Sure, go ruin my fun..."
"I think I'm in love with James..." Lily whispered hugging her pillow tightly. Elena stopped bouncing and dropped the teddy bear she was holding and hugged Lily firmly. Mena made a sympathetic noise and hugged Lily from the other side. After two minutes of just hugging and comforting Mena pulled away.
"Wait a second...Isn't being in love supposed to be HAPPY?" Mena asked, eyebrows raised. Elena paused considering, Lily on the other hand
stood up and began a lecture.
"You guys! Don't you see? Don't you know what this means? It MEANS that I'm going to get my heart ripped in half! James doesn't love me. He barely even likes me. How can I keep this bottled up? The only reason that I told anyone was so that I wouldn't explode!" she shrieked. Mena and Elena cringed.
"Well, Lily, you're wrong on that point. You DID explode, even when you told us," Elena remarked calmly. Mena glared at Elena.
"Oh, come on Lily, I'm pretty damn sure he at least likes you. And there might even be a big chance that he ... like likes you if you know what I mean," Mena assured her, wiggling her eyebrows. Elena sighed. It was her turn.
"Well, I don't know what goes on in guys' heads' that makes them so UNBERABLE, but there's no doubt in my mind that he likes you, and there's also no doubt in my mind that he like likes you..." Elena said. Lily groaned and sat on the happy face rug that lay between her and Katie's bed. Elena grabbed her hand.
"Now, I say you COME with me and we GO down there and I'll SHOW you how much James likes you!" Elena said confidently. Mena nodded convincingly and stood up from the spider-encrusted corner. Lily moaned again as they dragged her downstairs. "No, no, no no NO! If you say anything, I'll kill you," Lily threatened.
"That I doubt, Lily Pilly," Mena replied cheerfully.
"Well, I could stop helping you with your Transfiguration homework, then McGonagall will kill you for me," Lily replied in an equally cheerful voice.
Mena and Elena mock-scowled. "Ruin our fun..." They muttered.
When the reached the common room Katie was horrified to see that she was in her dad's overly-sized Canucks jersey, and a pair of skimpy shorts that had seen too many washes. Remus gazed at her, while Katie shrieked as she realized she was wearing, shall we say a not too classy ensemble? But Remus' eyes seemed to glaze over and a dreamy grin spread across his face. Katie squealed but stayed put in her spot, waiting for the rest of the Ixies; not realizing that getting dressed might be a possible option. When the rest of The Ixies got downstairs they stared at each other, no, not at each other...at their special outfits. Kris sighed.
"Oh no..." she said jokingly. Sirius raised an eyebrow.
"Why aren't you dressed?" asked Peter stupidly from the floor. Kris rolled her eyes.
"OH NO! AM I NAKED AGAIN!?" she squealed sarcastically. Sirius laughed along with the rest of the Ixies, Remus still seemed to be mesmerized by Katie and was still staring into space, James was hiding his face, which seemed to be glowing red from behind his hands. Peter was just scowling at Kris. They'd really grown to hate each other. Peter was always saying stupid comments, or questions, which was then the time for Kris to strike up a smart remark. It was a horrible mix, and both the Marauders and the Ixies knew not to keep them in the same room for too long. One time they almost got into a fist fight. Peter had said something horribly mean about Kris falling for Aidan, and how stupid she was that she didn't know he was going to hurt her again. Kris got up fed up completely and was walking over to Peter to punch him, but it took Brook, Sirius, Elena, and Mena to hold her back. Elena was slapping Kris and pinching her, shrieking, "What the hell do you think you're doing?!?" What are best friends for?
"You're an Army of Chicks in Pajamas!" laughed Sirius.
"So you guys want to get something to eat?" Katie asked happily jumping up and down. Peter rolled his eyes.
"As long as you calm the hell down," he muttered walking by her, knocking her shoulder. "Bastard..." murmured Kris as he walked away. The rest of the Marauders along with the Ixies left except Kris who just stood there glaring menacingly at the portrait that Peter had just walked out of. Sirius walked by and squeezed her shoulder.
"Come on...just ignore him," he said as he left. Kris shrugged and stayed in the Common Room, with her kitten, Ruby.
"Well, at least you like me..." she whispered at the black 6 week old. It meowed in reply and Kris giggled. She stroked it, singing a rock song that The Spaz had just rehearsed the day before.
"Shoulda done something but I done it enough..." Kris sang quietly. Just two minutes later, the rest of the Ixies came back in.
"Hey! Kris! Why aren't you down there?" asked Mena adding," We came up to see you of course!" much too quickly. Kris rolled her eyes.
"Professor McGonagall told you to get dressed didn't she?" Kris asked, knowing her group too well. Brook sighed and nodded. Kris shook her head and followed her clique up the stairs. It was a traditional thing that the Ixies help each other decide what to wear on any first day of Holidays. They honestly believed that if they didn't get a head start on looks, personality, spirit, and attitude they'd have a horrid break. It happened for spring break yes, they have that...i've decided, Christmas Break, summer holidays and Halloween's long weekend. Kris laughed hysterically as she watched Brook put on a hideous poodle skirt, that had been her mother's over 20 years ago.
"Oh my god! You look like SANDY!" Katie screamed, as she collapsed laughing on her bed. Kris snorted and shook her head.
"Seriously Trixie, if you planned on putting that on, it'd had better a joke!" Kris laughed covering her mouth. Brook nodded, but her shifty eyes were too much of a give away.
"Katie! Way too plaid!"
"No, no, Mena, that's too fluorescent..."
"Elena! Beautiful blouse!"
"I HATE THIS BLOUSE!" (Obviously, that was from Elena...)
"Kris...not in the WINTER!"
"I could SO wear bikini tops in the winter!"
"Lils! Brings out your eyes! But the skirt clashes..."
"Brook! What did I say about wearing jeans that fall down that far..."
"Sirius! Honestly! We're trying to change here!" exclaimed Elena, quite annoyed, as Sirius' head popped through the door. Sirius grumbled.
"Fine, fine...just wanted to help..." Sirius whined and walked back downstairs.
"And don't try anything with that cloak of yours!" Mena called down.
The Ixies stared at her. "Cloak?"
Mena smiled smugly. "Trade secrets..."
Downstairs, Sirius mouthed to James, "How does she know about your invisibility cloak?"
James shrugged.
Elena shook her head irritably.
"Jesus..." sighed Kris, although she was blushing uncontrollably. Elena rolled her eyes.
"Oh COME ON, Flix! We ALL know you couldn't be happier if he'd stayed..." she laughed, as Kris attacked her with a pillow.
"Oh be realistic Elena, Sirius is known as the Sirius Black the sexy something...he wants to go out with people like Danielle, and Mercedes..." Kris said sadly, playing with the tassels on her skirt. Elena squeezed her shoulder.
"Are you sure?" she asked quietly. Kris looked at her with dark eyes. She nodded. Elena sighed and went up the a mirror that was hanging on Lily's wall, behind her bed, and applied another layer of clear lip gloss.
Elena went with an oriental style, so she wore her hair in a bun with oriental chopsticks, and she wore jeans and a sweater. Kris had a girly look, with a purple skirt and a long sleeved light purple fleece, with hoop earrings, and hair done in a tight ponytail. Brook was going for a casual approach, jeans and a logo t-shirt. Her hair was, naturally, in a loose ponytail. Katie was wearing a business style that consisted of a white tank top/blouse, and a short denim skirt. You guys, I know I've tried to be authentic with the 70's stuff so far but honestly, they're gross...what the hell is up with wearing sun glasses INSIDE? Mena wore an awesome pair of army khakis, and a Yoda t-shirt, for...well- a 'Mena' look. Lily got dressed in a conservative way, with a polite stripy sweater, and a pair of light blue jeans, with her hair falling smoothly down her back.
"Think we got our clothes and make up right?" asked Kris nervously playing with a lock of hair.
"Would you just CALM down?" asked Elena dragging her down the stairs followed by the rest of the Ixies. Kris squealed in irritation and scrunched her eyes up when coming down the stairs. It was also tradition for the Ixies to walk around the school and show off their new outfit, and style. It became an unwritten holiday, since the girls were just as popular as the Marauders. The Marauders did it too. Only it wasn't fashion-it was pranking. Until 3rd year the Ixies pranked on this day too, but they decided it'd be cooler if it was more stereo-typical. Of course, there was always the odd Dungbomb in the hallway, but nobody suspected Elena and Lily, except maybe the Mauraders.
"You guys ready?" asked James, in their usual team huddle. Kris and James had ended up being leaders of this day, as Elena preferred planning the pranks. Kris nodded.
"Ready?" she said, "Hands in," The Ixies put their hands in.
"Hey Hey! GIVE ME AN I!" Kris yelled. "I!" the Ixies cheered. "GIVE ME AN X!" "X!" "GIVE ME AN I!" "I!" "GIVE ME AN E!" "E!" "GIVE ME S!" "S!"
"WHAT DOES THAT SPELL?!" Kris screamed.
"IXIESSSSSSSSSS!" the Ixies yelled. Then they got into a line, and tried to look posh.
"Lixie," Elena said casually, "Flixie," said Kris with a flick of her wrist for spice, "Zixie!" said Mena flipping her hair, "Trixie!" giggled Brook, "Mixie!" grinned Katie, "Kixie," said Lily in a fake bitchy-model voice.
"MA IXIES!" the Ixies screamed as loud as they could. The Marauders rolled their eyes. Elena and Lily, ever the enchanters, fixed up a charm so that their cheer could be heard all the way to Hogsmeade.
"Honestly, you guys have SERIOUSLY got to get a new cheer..." muttered James.
"Aw common James," Mena said playfully, socking him in the shoulder. "We all know you LOOOOOVE it, along with a certain someone..." Everyone knew that James liked Lily, except Lily of course. It was the worst kept secret in Hogwarts' history.
Everybody cast their eyes down and started whistling innocently, except Lily-erm, Kixie. "I have the feeling that I just missed something here," she commented dryly.
"What makes you think that?" Elena asked, smiling sweetly.
"Well-" Lily began. Elena cut her off with a "Come on people! Let's get a move on!"
They all clambered out of the portrait hole and into the hallway.
"Where to, where to?" Brook, ah, Trixie, asked.
"First stop: Great Hall," Kris replied, grinning wickedly.
They glided across the halls with ease, using their model walk they had been practicing for ages. As they walked down the hall, they received the same 'oohs' and 'ahhs' as expected, with loud cheering on the guys' behalf, and a guy who yelled 'I LOVE YOU FLIXIE!' (Whom Kris winked at). Later on, Kris and Sirius got into a huge fight, because Sirius pranked on the poor kid mercilessly and Kristin yelled at him because now the poor kid acts like something will jump out at him from every shadow he passes. They also earned some boos from Mercedes and her posse, who were bombarded with dung bombs by the Ixies' worshippers. Mercedes screamed and barricaded herself with boys (COUGHAidanCOUGH), while Danielle saw a dung bomb and fainted, and Maria, unfortunately, was abandoned by her friends and was left to fend off the crazed fans by herself. Quite a pleasant day for the Ixies.
"Guys? I'm starving, can't we get something to eat before we go showing off?" asked Katie. Kris shrugged.
"Ok, but I don't want to be attacked again by those crazy fans...god, who knew we had fans?" she giggled. The Ixies walked down to the Great Hall, and strutted until they reached their table and spooned up some eggs and bacon. Except Brook, who was a vegetarian.
"Oh my good LORD...Ooooh!...James and Sirius' work..." Kris laughed as she watched a kid come in with a pink Mohawk. Elena rolled her eyes.
"Oh COME ON. They did that LAST year!" she muttered pessimistically grabbing some more toast. Kris punched her in the shoulder.
"Come on, Lix...I think it's classic," she said blushing slightly. Mena giggled.
"Yes, Kris...we all know you do," she sighed. Kris glared but continued eating silently. Lily pulled out a pocket mirror and fixing her berry flavoured lip-gloss.
"Whatever, coming-" she began but was cut off by Dumbledore who stood up asking for silence. All jabber died down quickly. It wasn't Dumbledore, though, it was the Slytherins! They suddenly stood up and started dancing on their table. Their hair turned bright pink, electric blue, and neon green, and their Slytherin robes turned into Gryffindor robes. "I love Gryffindor! I love the Marauders!" the Slytherin girls sang, while the Slytherin guys added, "And the Ixies too!"
"You know, we're pretty lucky to have the Marauders as friends...otherwise...we'd look like them!" giggled Kris.
Everyone burst out laughing, including the Ixies and the Marauders. Dumbledore looked amused, but the rest of the staff looked furious. The Head of Slytherin looked like he was about to kill someone.
Finally someone managed to cast a counter-spell, and the Slytherins went back to normal, even though they looked daggers at the Marauders.
Dumbledore's eyes twinkled. "Whoever was responsible for these pranks will be found and obviously, will serve detention." He looked over at the Marauders. "As we all know, Christmas is approaching and since last year's Yule Ball was such a success, the staff and I have decided it would be nice to have it again, for all of the third year students from last year, who did not get to participate in the occasion. Again, 4th years, to 7th years will be the only to attend. But age appropriate students may ask a younger student if they wish. The dance shall happen on Christmas Day, and a feast shall be prepared. Formal clothing only. That'll be all," he finished sitting down, and got caught up in a deep conversation with McGonagall and the Head of Slytherin.
Kris wooted, standing up. "This is AWESOME!" Kris grinned, but her smile quickly faded away as she realized something.
"What's wrong?" Brook asked curiously, from behind a Nancy Drew book. Kris' face paled.
"Did he say something about ... ASKING people to the dance?" she asked weakly. Elena looked up a shocked look on her face.
"Kris isn't ... SCARED is she?" Elena teased wickedly. Kris' eyes darted to Elena's innocent face.
"Of course not," she replied coolly.
Elena smirked as Kris sat back down. Kris didn't talk much after that. Kris also noticed that Lily and Mena weren't showing their faces.
"Aw come on guys...If the guy who you want to ask you asks you, good. They probably like you. If they don't they probably are either too shy, or they hate your guts, so that when you ask him, he'll turn you down horribly in front of the whole school, total humiliation, OR haven't heard about us...pft...highly unlikely..." Elena said, trying to sound encouraging but failing miserably. Mena started hitting her head on the wall.
"Come on you guys, let's go, and finish this ridiculous tradition..." Mena said standing up and walking out the door followed by the Ixies and most of their fans.
2 hours and 10 detention sentences later ("ONLY TEN?!? Ridiculous! Usually we get about 25!" complained Sirius. "The professors are getting soft!" "Are you kidding? The Head of Slytherin wanted us expelled!" laughed James), the Marauders and the Ixies made it back to the Common Room, safe and mostly sound. Of course the Marauders had heard of the dance too, and were working up the courage to ask their crushes out.
James blushed furiously when Elena mentioned about the dates.
"So is everyone going to go to this big rendezvous disguised as a dance?" Elena asked casually, trying to glean as much information as possible (COUGHgossipqueenCOUGH).
"Uh, yeah," Kris answered slowly and cautiously. The worst thing to do was admit a crush in front of Elena, no matter how well meaning she was. And unfortunately, when it came to crushes, Elena was rarely well meaning. Sigh. "Are you?"
Elena threw her arms out forward. "C'est une insulte! Naturellement j'irai!"
Sirius stared at her. "You're Italian?"
Everyone stared at him blankly. Kris broke the silence with a giggle.
"French, Sirius, French," prompted Brook.
"Mais oui! Je suis francais!"
"No, she's Filipino, we all learned French in school before Hogwarts," Kris grinned.
"Oh shut it, you francophone racist. Way to break my fantasy." Elena glared. "Anyways, back to the dates..."
Mena started coughing and she had to be thumped on the back. "D-d-dates? Is there like a law or something that says the Ixies have to go with the Marauders?"
Elena sighed. "Of course not Marlena." She said exasperatedly. "You and I are under no obligation. Kris, Katie, Brook, and Lily on the other hand..." Elena grinned slyly. "Come on, Mena." She dragged Mena away, saying something about a smooch fest.
Lily played with her fingers and muttered with her two split personalities. James wrinkled his nose and tried to talk.
"Lily...do-would you-could-do you want-uh...Do you want to go to the ball with me?" he asked hopefully, stuttering slightly (pft, yeah SLIGHTLY). Lily's head snapped up, and she was grinning uncontrollably.
"SURE!" she exclaimed loudly. James relaxed a bit and nodded, trying to contain his excitement. Hiding behind the corner, Mena exchanged a satisfied glance with Elena. Kris winked at Lily and went back to reading her muggle 'Cosmo' magazine, and smacking her gum noisily. Sirius fidgeted in his seat, apparently inspired by James' bravery.
"Kristin would you like to go to the ball with me?" he asked blushing. Kris closed her magazine calmly.
"Could you hang on a sec?" she asked timidly. He nodded his mouth open slightly, and Lily felt sympathy for him, for having to wait for an answer. Kris, still keeping her face straight walked up to her room and let out a high-pitched scream.
"YES! WAHOO!" she screamed. She walked downstairs, the epitome of calm and serenity.
"Yes, Black, I'll go to the ball with you, and it's KRIS, you jerk," she said sitting back down.
He glared and looked away. Kris grinned, her perky style popping back in. Kris went back to reading her magazine, this time happier.
"Hey look, a quiz!" Kris suddenly squealed.
"A wha-?" Sirius asked, eyebrows raised.
"You know, like a personality test!"
"Muggles get personality exams? Do they write them out to get into school?" James asked, eyes widened.
Lily hit James lightly on the head. "No, you idiot, they're for fun!"
"It's 'Who is your dream guy?'" Kris sighed." Oh yeah, that's for school," she snorted sarcastically. "How romantic...Katie, you go first." Sirius and James snickered at the title.
Katie turned away from her whispering to Brook. "Eh? Oh, sure, ok."
"First question: What is your idea of a perfect date?" Before Kris could tell her the multiple choices, Katie answered, without missing a beat, "A candlelit dinner, and then a walk on the beach, where we talk about books, and music, and-and-MOVIES!"
Kris raised an eyebrow. "Whoa, that's like, one of the answers. You psychic? Or maybe just a psycho."
Katie grinned. "I do my best," she replied, bowing.
It turned out Katie's dream guy was a sweet, intellectual dude who was sensitive and sensible. Everybody looked pointedly at Remus, who was blushing furiously. Well, Katie was saying, "Oh cool. Wonder where I'll find a guy like that."
Kris smiled evilly and added a teensy bit on to the description of Katie's dream guy. "With light brown hair and blue eyes, he usually hangs out with the pranking crowd."
Katie giggled. "Haha, that sounds just like Remus!" she said, oblivious.
"Uh, K-Katie, w-will you go to the d-dance with me?" Remus asked, stuttering slightly, while turning a delicate shade of pink. 'Reminds me of cotton candy...' Kris thought dreamily. candy...yummy...'
"Sure." Katie said cheerfully.
Then Kris butted in and ruined their special moment. "Do you think they have cotton candy at Hogwarts?"
Everyone stared at her. "Where did that come from?" Sirius asked in bewilderment.
"The shade of Remus' face is the exact same colour as cotton candy." She replied simply.
"And why are you looking at other guy's faces?" Sirius asked playfully.
Kris socked him in the shoulder. "It's not like you weren't looking at Katie,"
By this time, Elena and Mena had grown tired of spying on them and were sitting about five feet away by the stairs, exchanging gossip with a few other girls from their dorm.
At that moment an owl flew threw the window and landed on Elena's lap. With a curious look on her face she untied the letter, that was written on normal paper, instead of Britain's usual parchment so it was defintely from Canada. James' eyes flew open with curiousity and crawled over to Elena, and started poking at the paper annoyingly.
"Damnit James, haven't you ever seen normal paper?" Elena asked pushing him away, harder than she meant, and he landed on the ground with a loud thump. She snickered.
"Oops," she replied innocently. Kris scooched over to Elena.
"Who's it from?" Kris asked. Elena searched for a name.
"Uh...LINDSAY!" Elena exclaimed flipping open the folded letter.
Dear Elena,
Hi! It's me! Lindsay! Guess what?!?! I'm probably going to Hogwarts next year! My parents said that I'm a witch because I make things happen if you know what I mean. Haha. So I'd get to see you and your friends! I so can't wait! See you then!
xoxoxoxox your pal Linz
Elena grinned.
"LINDSAY! SHE'S COMING TO HOGWARTS!" Elena screamed. Kris giggled and clapped her hands together.
"Alright! I miss that kid!" Kris sighed taking the letter. Brook nodded.
"Yeah, she was cool. The short one right?" Brook asked biting her fingernail. Elena nodded.
"Yeah, she's the one who spazzed on Aidan's little brother," Katie laughed. Kris' eyes narrowed.
"That whole family is pure evil," she whispered angrily. Sirius raised an eyebrow.
"Kris! Why do you hate him so much?" asked Sirius obliviously. Kris looked up at him.
"Let's just say, he's not the nicest guy in the world," and with that she turned on her heel, skirt swishing deftly, and she stomped up the stairs. Elena huffed.
"You just had to mention Aidan didn't you, Katie?" Elena muttered angrily and followed Kris. Mena glared.
"Now, we have to deal with her again...It took two hours to calm her unleashed anger last time..." she too walked up the stairs. Now Sirius look really confused aw...the author feels sorry for him.... Katie sighed and followed Mena. Brook shot a last angry glance at the whole room before leaving as well. Lily glared at Sirius as if it was his fault.
"Goodnight, James," she said not taking her eyes off Sirius, and finally the last ixie left the silent common room.
"Wait! Lily ... um... come here for a second..." he said shifting slightly. Lily walked over to a corner with him. Lily followed curiously, any bits of earlier anger had disappeared.
"Um...can you meet me down here when everyone is asleep?" he asked winking. Lily blushed, as she felt a tingle race up and down her spine. Is this for real? Does James Potter, hottie, James Potter, really want to meet me down here...to do something? Lily thought dreamily. Lily nodded still feeling a shock in her stomach. Meanwhile, back in the middle of the room, Sirius was frantic.
"What did I do?" asked Sirius, looking queasy. The Marauders shrugged and bid him goodnight.
"Aw, Kris, come on! It's not so bad!" Lily said rubbing her shoulder. Kris sniffed.
"I'm so pathetic...why is the thought of him still making me angry, sad, and broken?" she asked, though her voice was muffled from under her tie-dyed douve. Elena considered this rhetorical question thoughtfully.
"I guess, you just feel like he really liked you, and you felt that you finally had something special...But you're not pathetic!" Elena said slowly. Lily nodded.
"See, if it were me, I would've stayed so much longer in bed than you did!" Lily said grinning. Kris peeked out from her blankets. She made a watery smile.
"Aidan's stupid, and I bet he's gay!" Elena said grinning.
"You really think so?" Kris asked in a quivery voice. Lily and Elena nodded.
"Aw, you guys are the best!" she said giving them a hug. She pulled the blanket over her head again.
"Thank you, but I'm tired, crying exhausts me, goodnight fellow ixies..." she yawned. Lily and Elena rolled their eyes.
"Goodnight Kris..." they chorused.
Lily didn't go to sleep. She stayed up until she heard, Kris kicking, and Elena sleeptalking, saying something about how the governement was out to get her. They were quite a noisy bunch to share a dorm with. Lily excitedly jumped out of her bed, brushed her bright red hair, her wide green eyes, bright with anxiousness. She quietly tip toed down the stairs, and walked silently over to the couch, where she found James curled up in a ball, fast asleep. She grinned, at his messy black hair sprawled across his face. She shook him slightly and he stirred, and looked up at Lily smiling charmingly ...ggajhssfj sdkla fjkda .... He patted the seat next to him, recently occupied by his head. Lily's heart sped up, as his hazel eyes gazed into her emerald ones. She sat down not removing eye contact with his deep, deep, deep greeney brown eyes...
"Have you been waiting long?" Lily asked softly. James shook his head.
"Naah, I was just tired..." he said yawning. "Um...can I kiss you?" he asked looking deep into her eyes. Lily nodded mesmerized. Is this just a really realistic dream? Or is it actually happening? What if I wake up and find out Kris and Elena's noisy sleeping habits lulled me to sleep? But this seems so real...Just then James lifted his arm up, and took his hand and cupped her jaw and brought his lips to hers. His soft lips seemed to send shivers down her spine. Lily placed her hands in his hair stroking it. James seemed to know what he was doing, which intimidated Lily a little bit. Lily had no IDEA what she was doing. Lily barely felt James' tongue tracing her lips, trying to get in. Lily opened, hesitantly though. James wandered around in her mouth pressing his tongue up against hers quickly. All of Lily's earlier nervousness disappeared, as she shivered at his touch. Now, it felt like every sense in her body was illuminated by James. James broke away from the kiss, for breath, and came back overly-confident. When they stopped making out, intensely. James leaned back, and motioned for Lily to follow. She relaxed on his chest and he stroked her hair softly. Lily turned slightly, so she had hear ear pressed up against his chest. She could hear his slowing hearbeat. It felt so right. So perfect. Lily needed this. She strived for this floaty cloud nine feeling. But wait-what did this mean? Were they together now? Or did James just want a fling?
"Uh-James?" Lily asked, her head still resting on his chest.
"Mmhmm?"
"Does this make us...boyfriend and girlfriend?" Lily asked swallowing. Lily felt James pulse rate increase.
"Well, I want it to, but only if you do to!" he said, failing at contain his high hopes. Lily gasped.
"Me too!" she said excitedly. James chuckled.
"Well, m'lady, I should go to sleep! Sirius might wake up," he said kissing Lily on the forehead.
"Goodnight James," Lily sighed dreamily. With one last wink at her he walked up the stairs to his dorm. Lily grinned stupidly, and walked back up to her dorm, and flopped down on her bed, too tired to get under the covers, and fell asleep.
In what it felt like, 10 minutes later (but really 6 hours), Lily heard a loud scream.
"Oh SHUT UP!" moaned Lily. Kris wasn't in her bed. She wasn't in the bathroom. She wasn't in the dorm. Elena looked worried.
"Lils? Maybe we should go find her?" she asked. Lily nodded, also looking stressed. They both tumbled down the stairs, sleepily. They found Kris sitting in an armchair, with a letter in hand, looking ill.
"She never saw it coming..." Kris whispered angry tears silently making their way down her flawless sun-tanned skin. Kris sniffed.
"And while I was worrying about Aidan, she was dying!" Kris exclaimed louder, and pounding the arm on the chair. Before Elena and Lily could comfort her, there was pounding down the stairs. It was the all the Marauders except Peter, who was most likely still sleeping. When Sirius saw Kris sitting there, he ran across the room, in a flash.
"Kris! Are you ok? What's wrong?" he asked stroking her hair, that was up in a tight ponytail. She looked up at Sirius with eyes full of tears.
"My sister-" she choked out. Sirius nodded his eyes, full of concern, instead of tears.
"Our house-" she sobbed," was attacked by Death Eaters last night-" she cried out and burried her face, into Sirius' shoulder. Everyone was shocked and looked at each other in utter confusion. Sirius stroked her hair, trying as hard as possible not to cry himself.
"I hate him," and that was it for Kris. She burst into loud uncontrollable tears. "Why? Why did it have to be HER?"
Elena dropped to her knees and rubbed Kris' shoulder. Kris suddenly stood up.
"I don't care! I don't need her! She deserved what she got!" Kris screamed, and ran up the stairs. Elena sighed.
"If I know Kristin Robenson, that means she'll act the same as she always does, but she'll cry herself to sleep every night..." Elena declared, as she walked up to her dorm.
Elena was right. Not only did Kris never mention her sister and what happened to her, she acted happy-go-lucky, and lovey-dovey. Kris couldn't be more happy. But they all knew this was not what was going on in her heart. And again, like Elena had said, Kris cried herself to sleep every night. But awake, she actually even started fighting less with Sirius. But all there was to do for this odd reaction to death, was to wait for it to pass. When Kris returned to be more mean, she'd passed the moment. Kris and her sister never got along. They were always in screaming fits, and once actually got into a fist fight, and Kris ended up with a broken nose, and Belle with a broken jaw. Despite all this, Lily suspected that Kris did care for her sister.
"YA! WE'RE GOING TO HOGGGGGGSMEAAAAADE!!!!!!!!" Katie screamed, along with Kris who were jumping up and down on the couch. Kris hopped off the chair and started moonwalking.
"I'm-gettin'-my-ball-dress!" she sang between finger snaps. Elena giggled and pulled out her wallet.
"My mom sent me more money!" she exclaimed grabbing her sweater. Lily furrowed her brow.
"Do you guys no where James is?" she asked rubbing her arms.
"Right here, Lily flower," James said, who'd snuck up behind her and grabbed her in a hug. Lily grinned, and turned around, as he gave her a kiss on her lips. Lily felt tingles shoot up and down her spine. He was so...good. Flawless, and handsome. Kris and Sirius had hooked up, and so had James and Lily. Each couple seemed pleased about it wink wink lol. He pulled away from their embrace.
"I think we should head off to Hogsmeade, bout now huh?" he asked the room.
"Yep," replied Sirius coming from behind him, Peter and Remus following. He quickly walked over to Kris, giving her a goodmorning kiss on the cheek. Kris stood up suddenly.
"What the hell are we waiting for? LET'S KEEP THE PEOPLE COMING!" Kris screamed and ran to the portrait hole. They followed her laughing, and made it to Hogsmeade.
"Um...hm... I dunno what to do..." mumbled Kris. Sirius laughed.
"That's a first!" he grinned. Kris punched him playfully in the shoulder.
"How about the guys go and do whatever, while we can go and pick out dresses and hair accessories!" Lily suggested brightly. James rolled his eyes.
"Oooh! Can I come? Oh puh-leeeeze??" he asked in a perfectly immitated Danielle voice. Kris started giggling hysterically, and Lily flashed a dazzling smile complete with bright white teeth.
Brook shushed her.
"You guys know any good places?" she asked. Elena gasped.
"I know one! It's um... Yanda's House Of Robes and Formal Wear...pretty self-explanatory non?" Elena grinned. Kris giggled.
"Let's go then!" she exclaimed running away, oblivious again to the fact she had no clue where it was located.
"We'll meet you guys at Honeydukes, at let's say one-ish?" Remus suggested. Katie nodded, winking at him as she went to catch up with Kris.
"Kris! Wait up!" Elena said running to catch up. The Ixies followed, giggling.
"BYEEEEEEEEEE!" Kris screamed over her shoulder.
"Hi!" Kris giggled to the clerk happily. The clerk smiled.
"Good morning!" she greeted. Kris glanced back at her friends who were looking apprehensive to talking to this clerk. The shop, smelt faintly of roses, and Lilies. The essence burned in every corner of the shop, the shop was made mostly of marble, and cobblestone, and it was a circular room with daisies hanging on the walls.
"Hi, me and my friends," Kris gestured to the nervous looking 14 year olds behind her, "are looking for dresses to wear to our school Ball!" Kris finished. The clerk clapped her hands together.
"Purrrrrrrrrr-fect!" she dramatized. Kris smiled.
"Could you show us?" Kris asked politely. The clerk nodded.
"Yes, yes, of course," she led them up the spiral stairs and into a room full of doors. Upon one it said, elegant wear, parties, ball gowns, business elegance, old fashioned section, Medieval Wear, AND DANCE wear! The lady clapped her hands.
"Ah, well, you and your friends probably want to look in the dance wear right?" she asked in her strong british accent. Kris nodded.
"But can we check out the other ones as well?" Kris asked playing with a lock of hair. The woman nodded and left them in the room of doors.
"Don't mess anything up!" she called before leaving them. Kris clapped her hands together.
"Lut's gett-a mouve on peepel!" she said mocking the lady's accent. The Ixies broke into fits of giggles, as they entered the Dance Wear door. Hundreds of dresses were modelled on top of mannikins who were standing on the shelves, striking poses as the girls passed. Kris wandered over to the a section of the room, that displayed dresses that were shorter and more modern. Elena motioned to the long tradtional dresses, along with Mena, Brook, and Lily. Katie appeared to be examining a poofy dress, not seriously though. The dress was huge, in every way. It had spaghetti straps, and was coloured a pukey, hot pink colour, encrusted with large honking diamonds. It had layer after layer of acrynalin.
"Ew...Princess Bubble Yum..." Kris said, walking over to it. Katie looked at Kris with laughing eyes. Kris giggled and walked back to a dress, that looked way too gothic.
"Woo! I think I found one!" Brook cheered. She pulled up a long black dress, that looked like more of a party dress than a dance dress. It was a strapless ball gown, some sort of sparkly material sewed into it. When Brook held it up to her torso, the dress was cut to cleavage range, that her mother definitely wouldn't allow. Her mom was strict, and conservative in a way Kris' mom never agreed with. Kris' mom, Ms. Finnerty, was a single working mom, and was also very cool. She didn't care all that much if Kris wore short skirts. In fact, she encouraged her to. Kris hated short shorts, short skirts, and even short dresses. Kris' mom was also very cool about guys...she probably wouldn't mind about Sirius.
"Well? Go try it on!" exclaimed Kris. Brook ran to the change room and came back minutes later striking a pose, in her very chic dress. Elena applauded, along with the rest of the Ixies. Brook blushed slightly and walked out the door.
"I'm gonna go buy it!" she called over her shoulder. Kris sighed, but she gasped when she saw a dress.
"Oh my god! It's so pretty!" she giggled. She held up a red and white dress. It was long and slim, that touched the ground. It's collar was low and slingy, and the sleeves were more of a tank top kind of cut. The red and white colours swirled together, pleasantly, and it looked dazzling.
"I am SO getting this!" Kris yelped as she finished changing into it. She took it off and ran downstairs, to pay for it.
Half an hour later all of the Ixies had selected and bought their dance dresses. Mena had chosen a strapless party dress. The dress was completely black, except for the corsette type thing, that had a dark red lace, with a scarlet rose on the top corner of the dress. It wasn't long either, it went just above her knee. She looked very elegant in it. Katie chose a shimmery halter toppish dress. It was a nice shade of dark blue, shiny, and short, just above her knee. It looked really good with her tan. Elena chose out Elena went for a more traditional look. She picked a long black silk dress that went down to her toes. It looked oriental, accentuating her Asian features. It was slit up to the hip, revealing pink silk. It was embroidered in cerise flowers and tiny pink sequins. It had spaghetti straps and came with a matching black scarf with the same pink flower motif. Soon, only Lily was left. Her friends suggested she wear green, but Lily was sick and tired of the stupid colour. But she had to be careful and make sure the colour didn't clash with her bright red hair. Sighing, she turned away from an ugly poofy plastic wrap dress and turned to a blue one. She hated that one too. She went deeper into the racks, and then suddenly gasped. In front of her,outshining all the other dresses was a lovely cream coloured gown. It was made of soft silk, and had thin straps. There was a white rose at the hip, and it was lined with wavy taffeta. Lily instantly fell in love.
"Our dresses are so pretty!" giggled Brook. Kris nodded, drumming her hands on Elena's head, who swatted spazmatically, at her. snicker It was one of Kris' annoying habits.
"Well, I think we should go meet The Marauders now..." Elena said grabbing Kris in a headlock, which was surprising because Kris is a good 6 inches taller than Elena. Kris quickly recovered and grabbed Elena by her elbows, and lifted her up.
"TRUCE! TRUCE TRUCE TRUCE!" Elena shouted, panicking. Kris grinned satisfied and put her back down. But of course, 20 seconds later, Elena pinched Kris and they went off into a cat fight, while still walking towards Pub. The rest of the Ixies knew just to leave them alone, until they'd gotten rid of their little moment.
"So...Katie? Do you really have a crush on Remus?" asked Mena trying to act casual. Katie was opening her mouth to reply when Elena ran into the conversation.
"Did I hear something about a CRUSH!?" Elena grinned, eyes wide. Katie shook her head.
"Never mind Elena...never ever mind..." Katie sighed just as they walked into Honeydukes. They found the Marauders sitting at a table in the far corner of the pub, whispering furiously in front of a large piece of paper. When James saw the Ixies coming he quickly brought out his wand muttered something, and scrambled to grab the parchment. Kris pulled up a chair to their table.
"Hey guys!" she giggled, as she flopped down on the chair backwards. She took off her black hoodie, as the rest of the Ixies gathered around.
"What the bloody hell does your shirt say, Kris?" asked Sirius staring at it in bewilderment. Kris laughed.
"Isn't it cool?" she giggled pulling it away from her chest, revealing a shirt that said, 'I may not be perfect, but I AM Canadian and that's damn near close enough!' with a maple leaf at the bottom. Sirius rolled his eyes, and took a swig of his butterbeer.
"God, are all canadians this proud of their country?" Remus asked laughing.
"CHA!" all the ixies yelled. Sirius laughed.
"REMUS! OH MY GOD! REEEEEEEE-MUSSSSSSSSSSSS!" Kris screamed with a shocked look on her face, she didn't realize that yelling, might've worked ... the FIRST time. Remus jumped.
"What!?" he asked eyes wide. Kris pounded her fist on the table and screwed up her face, while she thought of what she was going to say.
"BAND! EGH! BAND PRACTICE! TOMORROW!" she said in a caveman way. Remus put up his hands trying to calm her down.
"Ok...I understand Kristin..." he said in a soothing voice. Elena clucked her tongue.
"Oh YEAAAH. What's that song we're working on? Vindication or something?" Elena asked stupidly. Kris rolled her eyes, playing with a piece of hair on Sirius' head.
"No! Vindicated," Kris murmured. Sirius giggled, in a girly voice.
"Would you stop it Kris? Anyway, what the HELL are you talking about?" he asked. Remus shook his head.
"Music stuff." he replied simply. Sirius nodded. Kris sighed.
"Well, I'm kind of tired from shopping, so I'll see you guys back at the castle, k?" Lily said standing up. James stood up too.
"Yeah I'll go too," he said blushing. Kris moaned.
"Does this mean you guys are going to make out and I can't come? I'm super tired..." Kris whined, not noticing what humiliation this was causing Lily and James. Sirius coughed lightly.
"Hey Kris? Why don't we go sit by the lake?" he said grabbing her hand. Kris smiled, "Okeedokee!" she laughed. She walked out still holding his hand, and laughing and pointing out random things. Elena sighed.
"Seriously! What is wrong with Kris? Can she EVER get pessimistic? It's like all she does is point out the good! Oh my god...what if-what if you're like soooooo optimistic that you don't see the bad side of optimism," Elena said sounding a little stoned. "Now that's deep..."
Katie glared at her.
"There IS nothing wrong with optimism!" she said looking over Peter's shoulder looking inspired. Elena gasped.
"You-you're ONE OF THEM!" she exclaimed horrified. Lily, still blushing a bit, coughed.
"James, we should go you know..." she said playing with her hair acting casual. When no one was looking, Elena pulled out a notebook, and started scribbling, furiously. James nodded.
"Quite right...see you guys later!" he called from over his shoulder. Brook giggled they giggle a bit much in this don't they?. Remus drummed his fingers on the table.
"Uh-Katie-" but he was cut off by Christopher Macintosh, (the guy who had a huge crush on Elena), walked through the door. Elena hid her face.
"Oh no...not NOW!" she moaned through her hands. She looked up to the roof.
"What did I do to deserve this?" she whined her hands in a prayer. Christopher came up to the table.
"Hi Elena," he said trying to make his voice sound more appealing (failing miserably). He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.
"Would you like to go to the dance with me?" he asked cupping her face, in his hands. Elena screamed.
"GET AWAY FROM ME, HOZO!" she screeched, and with that she grabbed her wand that was in her back pocket of her jeans.
"PREPARE FOR BUCK TEETH HOSER!" she screamed through the pub, which was now deadly still, and everyone was watching, even Madame Rosmerta.
"BEAVERACIO!" she screamed, and a flash of brown light flooded towards his body. With a pop, and all the smoke fanned away, it showed a brown beaver, with his paws, in front gnawing at the chairs. Everything was silent. Nobody moved, and nobody talked. Two minutes later of just staring, someone started clapping which followed with more clapping, and soon the whole pub was cheering.
"LIXIE! LIXIE! LIXIE! LIXIE!" some of the 6th years chanted. Elena blushed slightly and put her wand away. She sat back down on her chair.
"Don't mess with Canadians..." she muttered. Soon, Elena's chair was being lifted up by a group of happy 6th year boys, chanting, down the street, "LIXIE ROCKS! IXIES RULE!". Remus' eyes grew big.
"Wow..." he whispered. Katie grinned.
"And that's what I call, a canadian kicking ass..." she said triumphantly.
"Sirius! Look! The squid!" Kris squealed, jumping up and down as Sirius approached her. Sirius grinned and turned to her.
"Um...Kris...I have something to tell you..." he said seriously. Kris stopped jumping up and down and turned to him. Kris grinned.
"What is it, Black?" she asked, still grinning. His face stayed the same.
"Kris...I think I love you..." he said looking into her eyes. Kris' face stood in amazement. Did he just say that, or am I dreaming like the time I thought I heard Elena say she was a robot... Kris thought, hoping it was real.
"Wha-" she began but Sirius cut her off. His eyes seemed almost scared. Suddenly a noise exploded from somewhere in the sky, and thunder, rumbled through the ground. Lightning started and it flickered through the afternoon sky, and the rain started pouring through the clouds, and instantly soaked through they're clothes. Sirius, look at Kris solemnly.
"Kris! It's true! I can't stop thinking about you! I love you! I love the way, you're always happy, I love the way you crack your fingers, I love the way you eat, I love the way you say 'like' when looking for a word, I love the way you do homework, I love the way you pull pranks, I love the way you play guitar, I love the way you fight with me, I love the way you're not scared to talk to people you don't know, I love the way you talk to your friends...Kris, I can't stop these feelings, and I'll understand if you never want to see me again-" Sirius said, but was cut off by Kris who basically lept on top of him. She pressed her lips to his, shocked ones. He was surprised, but obviously, ecstatic. He placed his hands in Kris' soaked hair, and Kris pressed her torso up against his. She broke apart from the kiss for breath and returned, energized, and dreamy. His lips were so soft against her's, that the fluffy romance almost seemed too sweet. His tongue seemed to gently edge towards her mouth, carefully, not wanting to be rejected. Kris opened her mouth, the tingling sensation still lingering. His tongue followed in excitedly, and pressed up against her own, the sweet cottoncandy feeling not flickering, but increasing. Soon, their mouths began to ache, and Kris just held on to his neck, and rested her forehead against his. She looked up at him.
"Sirius," she whispered, almost inaudible. "Sirius-I love you..." she whispered, even quieter. Sirius grinned at her and kissed her again, very softly, on her swollen lips. They walked back to the castle-hand in hand, their whole world, changing completely, from when they'd left it...
A/N: Aw...now wasn't that the best thing you've ever read? Haha. I know, someone right now is saying "IS SHE INSANE?!!? THAT WAS THE STUPIDEST CHAPTER I'VE EVER READ!" Muahahhaa. I liked it :) I thought it was frikken hilarious. Oh, and I'm super sorry, but the story will get more violent and like...'coarse language'. Hahaha. Ah...I've been watching too many movies. And again I'd like to say thanks to Elena for revising, and all the words you can't pronounce are from her. Haha, just kidding.
