I was quite stuck on this chapter so give me a break if it's a little short.
READ AND REVIEW PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
30 reviews! Wow! Thank you guys SOOOOO much!
And I'm sorry for the wait but again I was really stuck.
By the next Monday, everything had totally blown over and now Lexi was even being bombarded by autograph hounds. Sadie even resorted to hexing someone who tried to jump Lexi for "a piece of the hair that Harry potter produced". That was some seriously disturbed kid.
The week went quite normal, or as normal as you could get at Hogwarts. That is, until Friday night before astronomy class. The worst part was, it was doubles with Hufflepuffs.
"You know, were probably going to have to watch Skyler make googly eyes at the Alannah girl the whole class." Sadie reminded Lexi. It was a quarter till 12 A.M., which was when the class started.
"You never know, maybe he'll be too tired to pay attention." Lexi replied, but was cut off by two voices around the corner and stopped.
"It sounds like Skyler" Sadie whispered.
"I've been waiting to hear you ask that since I met you." A girl squealed. Lexi's eyes widened.
"It is Skyler!" Sadie realized, taking a quick look around the corner.
"I'm just thankful to Lexi. Without her, we would have never met" Skyler said. Sadie laughed.
"I think he just asked her out!" She whispered again.
"Screw this" Lexi growled. She grabbed Sadie's arm and trudged on.
Skyler and Alannah heard footsteps and jumped back, seeing two Gryffindors.
"Oh, hello, sorry to bother" Lexi grumbled, continuing to walk past. The two looked at Sadie and she gave them a shrug and followed Lexi.
Sadie ran to catch up with her friend, seeing her anger.
"What is the matter?" Sadie asked, still trying to catch up with her fast-walking friend. Lexi stopped and turned towards the red-head.
"You want to know what the matter is? I-I don't know what the matter is…" Lexi replied, her eyes falling to the floor.
"Are…are you jealous?" Sadie whispered. Lexi shook her head no.
"No…that's not it…I guess…I guess now that I made friends…he's getting taken away." Lexi responded, feeling tears prick the back of her eyes.
"We can discuss this later, if you want, but we need to get to class." Sadie answered, walking with her friend to class.
The next morning, Lexi woke up refreshed and rejuvenated. Last night, after class, Sadie, Skyler, and Lexi had a big talk and straightened everything out.
Skyler told Sadie and Lexi that he was going to Hogsmeade today with Alannah and Sadie said she was going with John, but Lexi didn't tell either of them who she was going with. She just bypassed the subject.
Lexi hopped into the shower and when she got out she magically dried it and put it up into a tight pony tail. Putting her robe around her, she left the dorm and hopped down the stairs. She and Joel had decided to meet outside of the Great Hall at 9am, when everyone usually left for the town.
"Lexi!" She heard someone call. She looked up and saw Skyler leaning over the railing above the spiral stairs.
"Hello!" Lexi called up with a smile.
"Meet for lunch at noon in the Leaky Cauldron?" He called down again. Lexi noticed his hair was still soaking wet and hanging in his eyes. She nodded and ducked out of the portrait hole.
"Hello Joel" Lexi said with a smile. Joel jumped and smiled down at her. He had been staring at a painting on the wall as the man fought a snake with a stick.
"Oh, Lexi. Good Morning! Ready to go?" He asked, offering her his arm. Lexi smiled at his cheesiness but squirmed at the butterflies in her stomach.
"Of course"
The two of them walked out of the main doors, arm in arm, not noticed by one single person.
Everyone had been in for a little over two hours so far and people were getting hungry.
"So, do you want to think about getting lunch in forty or so minutes?" Joel asked Lexi as they walked together down the main road, looking into shops. Lexi gasped.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, do you mind having lunch together with my friend Skyler? He's in my year and in Gryffindor." Joel looked down at her through some stray blonde locks in his eyes. He opened his mouth to say something, but she interrupted.
"You know what, never mind. He won't mind if I skip this one. We can have lunch at The Whizbee Café. How does that sound?" Lexi replied. Suddenly she had the urge to be alone with Joel. Surely Skyler wouldn't mind.
"Ok, whatever you want. We still have a bit till noon though, so do you want to go into Flourish and Blots?" Joel suggested. Lexi's eyes immediately lit up. Even in her adventurous nature, she always had a love for books.
"I'd love to! I hear there is a new book out by Gaylord Lockhart (yes, it is his son)that I'd love to take a look at." Lexi replied, leading Joel into the large doors into the book store.
Lexi and Joel were instantaneously encased in the loveable smell of both old and new books. Lexi slowly crept in and stepped on the old wood floor with caution.
The black haired girl then immediately rushed over to the book she had mentioned to see a very blonde, very superficial man winking at the customers. Joel rolled his eyes.
"You enjoy reading about this lunatic? All he is is looks." Joel groaned. Lexi's mouth dropped and she whipped around to see a very amused boy.
"Yes, I do enjoy reading about him! And no, he is most certainly NOT a lunatic? Where do you come off saying that this man is a lunatic? You have no right to-" But she was cut off. By what, you ask?
A very enjoyable kiss from Joel.
Skyler walked down the cobblestone path, hand in hand with Alannah. They smiled and laughed with no reason to pay attention to the outside world.
"Hey, Lannah, do you want to go into Flourish and Blots?" Skyler asked his girlfriend. She screwed up her nose in disgust.
"Ugh, I hate books. I get enough of them at school, why should I go near them in my spare time?" Skyler's stomach plummeted with a sickening drop. Books were a huge part of his life, and it was becoming another thing he didn't have in common with Alannah. Ever since they had started dating, he had discovered more and more things he would never share with her.
"Ok, well, I'm going to go in. There is a beauty store across the lane. If you want to go in there, meet me back here in about 20 minutes." Alannah nodded in glee and skipped over to Mistress Clarice's Beauty for Witches.
Skyler walked lightly up the single stair and into the book store. He was finally happy that he was in a store he wanted to be in, but it skidded to a terrible halt and made a screeching noise you could hear for miles.
There, right in front of him, was his best friend kissing that Ravenclaw fifth year, and actually enjoying it! He never thought he would care, but he had this urge to rip Joel right off his friend, but yet he wanted to feel happy for his friend. He decided on neither and fled the store.
ok, ok, it was short. I was going to write more, but I don't have my notes with me. They are in my locker at school. So, when I get my notes tomorrow ill try to get the next chapter out really soon!
PLEASE REVIEW!
