Ginny and Lily decided after they opened their presents (which they did without delay) to go have a Hogwarts breakfast. Of course Ginny knew all about these having stayed at Hogwarts a few times during her own time, but she made a very good attempt to make it seem like she didn't. However, it still took them awhile to go downstairs. Ginny being very appreciative of her new presents that the Lily's friends were nice enough to give her decided to use some of them. Ginny changed out of her white night dress and changed into the long sleeved orange shirt and white skirt one of them had given her. After that Ginny was continually standing in front of a full length mirror examining how she looked. She wanted to try out her Christmas present from Lily so she stood there in front of the mirror for several minutes, taking the bewitched combs, sprays and other assorted items and did her hair to it's full potential. A rather frustrated Lily was left to pace around and yell at her new friend to hurry up.
"Would you hurry up! By the time you finish with your hair it will be dinnertime! For heavens sake I'm sure your hair looks fine. Besides why do you need to fix it up anyway? Are you trying to impress a certain someone that I don't know about?" Lily shouted to her friend from outside the door. She had refused to stay in there with Ginny saying every five seconds 'Does it look ok now?' or 'What about now?' or 'How 'bout this?' Ginny smiled at the mirror. Even her reflection was getting irritated with her.
"No I'm not trying to impress anyone. I just want to look good for a change! Is that so wrong, honestly." Ginny shouted back as she started pinning up a strand of fiery orange hair that had just fallen on her face. "Besides I want to show you how much I love your gift" she added as an after-thought.
"Yes I'm sure you love it! I don't doubt it at all, now can we please get moving!" Lily shouted, while crossing her arms and leaning against the door. "You know my stomach would appreciate it a lot more if you just came out so we could eat!" she said after hearing her tummy give a slight grumble.
"Oh hush, you waited for me to open my presents, I think you can wait a little longer. Besides, why do you want to get down there so quickly? Do you want to see someone special at the breakfast table?" she said exaggerating the word special as thought she had some hidden meaning, which she in fact did.
"Are you suggesting I want to see James Potter! Because if you are saying that then I swear to the high heavens I'll –"
"Oh relax Lily," Ginny said interrupting Lily's threat. "I never said that you wanted to see James Potter, I merely insinuated that perhaps you wanted to see someone and I was holding you and that perhaps you saying that I wanted to impress someone may be covering up for that fact that that is exactly what you're doing." Ginny said, finally pleased with her hair. "It's just speculation of course," she added. She could her Lily growl in frustration, but decided to ignore it. Ginny walked over to her bed and quickly tossed on a pair of robes. And studied how she looked in the mirror once more.
She had to admit this was much better than she normally looked. Having new clothes certainly added to the over-all tone of her appearance and she was quite pleased with it on the whole. Her very long, very red hair was now straight, as oppose to her normally wavy hair. Two pieces of her hair in the front were braided and wrapped around her head giving the impression of a crown. Ginny patted it a few times pleased with her work. When she finally decided she was ready, she walked over to the door that lead out of the bedroom. She reached for doorknob as any other would have done. With instinct she turned the knob and swung the door open. However little did she know, a very frustrated Lily was leaning against it at the time. Within a second, Lily's supported body came crashing down onto the carpet of the bedroom at the feet of Ginny. She had no time to react so her arms were pretty much still crossed and she landed hard on her side. Ginny also having no time to react was starring baffled at Lily, quite flustered.
"Oh man, I'm sorry! I didn't know you were leaning against the door. I just – "Ginny said, biting her lip in the process. Lily lifted herself up with her arms and pushed herself up onto her knees. She looked very disgruntled Lily starred up at Ginny.
"Well you know what? If you hadn't took such a bloody long time, I wouldn't have been leaning against the door!" She said irritably, pushing a strand of her hair out of the way. Ginny crossed her arms and frowned.
"Hey, I said I was sorry. What else do you want me to do? Be sent to bloody Azkaban for it?" Ginny said mildly annoyed. Lily finally stood and brushed her robes off.
"No...besides, it is Christmas. I suppose I can let this one go," Lily said her voice turning somewhat pleasant. "But uh – if you do it again, you so totally owe me. You know that right?" she said with a quirky grin on her face as she leaned up against the doorframe. Ginny copied her smile.
"You got it, besides I did make you kiss James Potter...especially when you didn't want to," Ginny said putting an extra special emphasis on the word 'want'. Lily looked oddly disgruntled after Ginny had said that. She opened her mouth to retort but Ginny continued. "But that was because you flew me around like a bloody kite. So I suppose that would make us even...but still. I think I should probably owe you something anyway, after all you did almost break your nose right now." Ginny said casually. Lily looked as though something had dawned on her.
"That's right, you should!" Lily said pointing her finger at Ginny. "And I have just the thing for you." She said with a look of merciless evil on her face. Ginny looked slightly worried.
"What do you have in mind?" Ginny said leaning back against a bedpost as she cocked an eyebrow.
"Oh nothing terrible. I'll tell you soon enough, no worries." Lily said a smiling playing on her lips. She quickly bounced out of the dorm, followed by Ginny who had a very sinking feeling in the pit of her gut. This was going to be bad.
When they descended down the staircase down into the Common Room, they could see four boys making their way down the boys staircase at the same time. Ginny almost froze onto the stairs when she caught sight a certain dashing, young werewolf. She had almost forgot that she had given him a present and suddenly she found herself starring at him, without any control over it what so ever. She couldn't help but wonder if he liked her present and if he knew she bought it, and dozens more questions zoomed into her head from seeing him. Could Ginny possibly fancy her old...(well technically young right now) professor? It sure seemed like it. Lily noticed her sudden halt and quickly turned in concern to Ginny.
"Is everything all right?" she asked starring at Ginny, who was not looking at her but rather ahead to where the boys were. "Uh Hello! Earth to Ginny!" Lily said waving her hand in front of Ginny's fixated face. Ginny snapped from her day dream when she saw something flash in front of her face and she quickly took a step back in surprise.
"Wha – "she started, not realizing she had just been starring at Remus. However when she took a step back, her foot caught the back of her robes, causing her to stumble backwards into Lily. Lily having no time react was hit by the full impact of Ginny's falling body and was sent down the flight stairs, followed closely by Ginny. Ginny could feel her head hit against the hard wooden steps as she tumbled unstoppably down the stairs. She couldn't help feeling like an idiot, for starring at someone and then tripping on her robes and causing her and her friend to fall to the bottom of the stairs. Lily hit the bottom of the staircase with a loud 'thump.' Before Ginny came rolling down on top of her she rolled over so Ginny's head hit the hard wood of the floor followed closely by the rest of her body. Ginny lay sprawled on the floor, her head aching like mad. She put her hand up to her head in an attempt to ease her aching head. She heard Lily groan a few inches away. She saw Lily sit up right and rub her obviously pained cranium. She also heard a few pairs of footsteps run over to where they were in a rapid pace.
"Oi Evans! You all right there?" Ginny moaned. It was James, and that most likely meant Remus was closely behind, which meant he had seen her fall clumsily and knock them both down the stairs. Oh Ginny you idiot! If you hadn't been gaping at him like a moron you would have never embarrassed yourself. Excellent job I must say. Second time today, you bloody genius. Another victory for Ginny...she thought sarcastically. She rolled over on her side, hoping that they wouldn't see her there and would ignore her. She was not that lucky. Out of the corner of her eye she saw James leaning over Lily with Sirius putting his elbow on his shoulder like some sort of arm rest. She saw Peter waddling after them obviously not as quick as his other friends. Remus...well she had not idea where he was, and she was not going to look now, that was for certain. That's what made her fall down in the first place. Her heart stopped when she saw someone's feet in front of her face. She quickly shut her eyes quick in hopes that whoever they were (and she dreaded who they were) would think she was dead and pay her no mind.
"Ginny?" said a very familiar voice from over her. "Are you ok?" Ginny felt like shriveling up into a tiny ball and then catching fire. She felt a blush come to her cheeks and she was determined not to open her eyes not matter what. "Ginny?" the voice said again. She felt that whoever it was had shifted their weight and was now crouching beside her. Ginny's eyes began to water feeling from being closed so tightly. She struggled to keep them shut no matter what. But she could stand it no longer. She felt a light hand touch her shoulder and shake her a bit. From where the hand touched she could feel warmth spread through out her body and almost on instinct her eyes flew open, slightly watered from the pressure they had been under. She met his eyes almost instantly and felt utmost humiliation rise from her stomach. A look of somewhat relief washed over his face, but Ginny didn't take notice of it. She just couldn't help but feel awful. Before he could say anything to her, she rolled over onto her stomach, pushed herself up and found herself racing up the girls staircase, tears escaping her eyes. Remus was left at the bottom of the stairs, dumb founded, hoping he hadn't upset her in anyway. After James had successfully pulled Lily up to her full height, ("Get off me! I don't need your help!" she said pulling away from his grip, after he was trying to sneak his hands around her shoulders. "Evans you need all the help you can get. You just fell down a flight of bloody stairs," he said casually, leaning against the railing. "You git! It was Ginny's fault!" she said irritably. "Always blaming others eh Evans? Speaking of which, where is that ol' tumbleweed?") he couldn't help but see a certain redhead bolt up the stairs, and his eyes trailed to his friend who was crouched down on the floor, watching her go, slightly unnerved.
"Oi! Moony!" James said tearing away from Lily, who looked oddly upset by it. (Ooo!) "What did you do to the poor girl?" He said leaning up against the opposite banister. "Gee, even Evans didn't cry that much when I –"Lily whirled around a scowl on his face. He decided it was in his best interest to not finish his sentence. Lily brushed by James over to where Remus was still crouching looking bewildered. She crouched down beside him.
"What happened?" she said sympathetically, starring at his bemused face that was still looking up the stairs, most likely replaying an image in his head. His head slowly turned towards her.
"I –I dunno. She was just lying down here," he said pointing to the spot. "And she just...well I was worried. I came over here, and she had her eyes closed. And I was worried, I thought maybe she hit her head too much and so I sat down to see if she was ok. And then she finally opened her eyes after I tried to shake her awake. And at first I was happy she was ok, but then she just got up and ran away. What did I do?" he said looking almost tearful. Lily smiled and touched his back (platonic way guys, don't get any funny ideas!).
"You were worried about her?" Lily said, a gleam in her eye. Remus turned his head from the spot on the floor up to her face. "What is that supposed to mean?" he said anxiously, rising from his crouched position. Lily couldn't help but grin. She too rose to her feet and brushed a little dust off her skirt.
"Only that you were worried, right?" she said, her expression becoming serious again, and crossing her arms. James, who was still leaning against the banister, was joined by Sirius and Peter who were glancing at a magazine of Sirius's ('Daily Debonair' heh heh) a moment before. (I think Peter could really use that magazine...). They had just realized something interesting was gone when Sirius had looked up from an article ("10 ways to get even the most stubborn girls to take notice of you") and saw what looked like a very upset Remus. He casually closed the magazine, much to the dismay of Peter and sauntered over to where James was standing. He motioned for Peter to follow.
"What's going on Prongs?" Sirius whispered to him, glancing at Remus and then over at Lily. James looked somewhat confused by the whole scene.
"Not sure, I think Evans is suggesting something about Moony and that new girl, Weston?" he said studying the two carefully. "Just watch," he said. He saw Remus's expression change from anxiety to what seemed to be slightly angered.
"Well sure I was! She fell down the stairs for heavens sake! And I mean it's not like it's Snape or anything, she is a Gryffindor." He said, folding his arms. Lily paced around in circles, still smiling. She looked as through she was going to present a fact-filled lecture in a moment or two. Finally she stopped and looked at him again, still grinning broadly.
"You do make a good point," she said, walking forward a bit, right past him. "But," she said with an abrupt halt as she spun around. "Not quite good enough. Can you explain why exactly you didn't help me up?" she said, proceeding back past him. Remus had his mouth open, unsure of what exactly he was supposed to say.
"Well – uh I just...well James was already helping you and so – yeah..." he said trailing off, hoping she'd drop the subject for the time being. Lily didn't however. She was quite persistent.
"Well," she began. "That's interesting." She continued to pace a little more. "And would you mind telling me what you two were doing at Hogsmeade last week when we ran into you?" Lily said, emphasizing 'two' and 'Hogsmeade' to get her point across. She glanced over at the other three Marauders, who looked flabbergasted. She looked at Remus, the color drained from his face.
"Hogsmeade!" James demanded, tearing away from the banister, over to where his friend was standing who was starring at his feet. "I thought you told us you HAD to study for Arithmancy! You said it was ABSOLUTELY IMPORTANT that you get that done. And I THOUGHT that was why you didn't come with US!!" he said, and he was quickly joined by Sirius and Peter both of which looked furious. "So tell us! Your FRIENDS! What did you actually do that day?" He demanded. Remus, took a deep breath, but continued looking down at the floor.
"I asked Ginny if she wanted to look around Hogsmeade, because – I thought Lily would be too busy and I knew if I brought her along with you guys, you'd all make fun of me. I'm sorry I lied, but I was just trying to be nice to her." He said calmly, hoping that would work. He heard Lily laugh at the comment 'Lily would be too busy,' but James spoke first, looking slightly calmer than before.
"Friendly? I suppose being friendly includes SNOGGING!" Remus looked up at the word 'snogging' his eyes wide as dinner plates at his friend. James had a triumphant grin on his face, the one he wore whenever he had figured out a secret.
"Snogging? Snogging?! Is that what you're suggesting? That we snogged?" He said looking somewhat outraged by James's assumption. His voice had gone up a bit and almost cracked on the last part.
"Yes I believe I am," James said calmly and Sirius leaned on his shoulder. He had crossed his arms and he was not smiling a little more, but Remus could tell he was still angry. However Remus was most enraged himself so he disregarded it.
"Well we DID NOT SNOG! I would never do that...I mean I – don't even like her – that way," he said the last part quickly. He heard Lily laugh.
"Oh please Remus, I don't think you could really make it anymore obvious." James quickly joined Lily at her side.
"Too right Evans, when she first came here we caught them together just before Defense Against the Dark Arts. They were so...close. My guess is they were getting ready to snog," he said snickering.
"WE WERE NOT DOING ANYTHING!" he shouted his temper rising be the second. "I HAVE NEVER SNOGGED A GIRL IN MY LIFE," he insisted. After realizing how embarrassing that was he blushed crimson and starred at the floor.
"Sure," said James, rolling his eyes. Sirius stifled a laugh. He knew Remus was usually calm, but was not to be messed with when he was mad. He chanced a look at him. Remus's face was bright red. The fact that he decided to not argue back meant he had given up, which meant that everything was probably true. Lily patted Remus on the back and gave him a bright smile. "Don't be ashamed Remus! It's alright to admit your feelings for someone else."
James smirked. "Yeah Moony, listen to Lil." Lily gave him a sharp glare, which silenced him. James starred at her a minute. His eyes wandered over the two of them. His eyes stopped at where Lily's hand had been. His face slowly coming to a realization as he saw her hand on the small of his friend's back and her smiling at him.
"Hey wait a minute!" he said violently. "Why are you patting him! And smiling at him? Hmm? Why is that Evans? Do you fancy Moony! I knew it! How could you?!" he said making accusations like they were instant rice (er- did that make sense?). Patches of pink were on his cheeks as he furiously spilled some more accusations, his hands moving wildly in the process. Lily glared at him viciously. She got to her feet and face him, her arms now crossed.
"Are you suggesting something James? Why would I be trying to set him up with Ginny if I liked him myself! That's the dumbest bloody accusation I've every heard Potter!" James stood there, his hand in the air about to retort when he realized she was right. He looked absolutely flabbergasted. Then he turned back to Remus.
"Well then, I guess Evans was just being nice then. So about this Weston girl deal, what's going on with her? You like her or not?" Remus looked at a loss for words. He knew anything he said would be used against him in this matter, and that his mouth would most likely betray him if he dared open it. He sighed, slightly less angered.
"So does that mean you admit it?" asked Peter excitedly, clapping his hands together.
Remus clenched his fists, digging his nails into the soft flesh of his hands. "Yes," he muttered quietly. Sirius gave a whoop, and slapped him on the back, making him stumble forward. James beamed at his friend while Lily clapped.
"I'll go get the lucky lady," she said winking at Remus. Remus looked horrified when she said that. "No!" he said almost immediately. Lily turned around, slightly confused.
"What's wrong?" she said, turning back and coming down the few stairs she had ascended before. "Something wrong?" she said concerned. Remus looked around a moment for support. Surely his friends knew that if this girl did like him, which he sincerely doubted that sooner or later he'd have to tell her he was a werewolf and she'd hate him.
"You can't tell her, please." He said to her, looking around at all of them, all looking confused.
"Why not?" Lily insisted. "You like her don't you?" she said pressing the matter further. "I mean you never know she might like you to and – "
"No! You don't understand. I can't, you can't. Just please don't tell her," he pleaded with her. Lily's very green eyes were filled with deep concern and at the same time confusion. He was definitely holding a secret in his eyes. She wanted to press on so she could find out but she was interrupted by Sirius.
"Why not mate? C'mon, we know you fancy her, and like we said before we know she's got the hots for you so why not?" Remus frowned at his friend for his arrogance. He walked over to Sirius and quickly whispered something in his ear so that Lily would not hear. Lily frowned and crossed her arms because she was being excluded from the conversation. Sirius's eyes widened as he listened to Remus's hushed whispers.
"He's right Evans. It wouldn't work," he said as Remus finished his whispering. Sirius got confused looks from Lily, James and Peter.
"Why not?!" Lily demanded, approaching him. "I mean it's perfect, it was practically meant to – "
"Trust me Evans, it wouldn't work," he said, as Remus motioned James and Peter to come over to him and he began telling them his dilemma. Very slowly both of them began to understand, (Peter much slower than James). Lily began to get annoyed that she was being left out.
"WHAT'S GOING ON THAT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT?!" she yelled, her frustration finally getting the better of her. "WHY CAN'T HE LIKE SOMEONE!! HMM? WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE FILL ME IN!!" She screamed. The boys jumped a little at the sound of her voice (Peter fell over he was so startled). After her initial outburst she started taking deep breathes as she glared at them. They all looked horrified, like she was going to beat them over the head with a lead pipe.
"I can't tell you Lily, I'm sorry. But I can't tell anyone really. You have to understand, this is really important, and I have a perfectly good reason for this, please just trust me. Please?" Remus said taking a step forward. Lily's hardened expression softened slightly and she couldn't help but feel a little guilty. She knew he was shy about girls, but then wouldn't he want help? Or maybe he was self conscious? Whatever the case she really didn't want to push it, because he looked incredibly upset by the whole thing. She decided to hold off awhile.
"Okay Remus, only because you look so pathetic right now," she said smiling a little. She could hear James and Sirius stifle a laugh, as Remus blushed and starred at the carpet. "Well, still. I'm going to go get Ginny, she's probably not feeling to well after that fall." She caught a look at Remus's face which had fear written all over it. "And," she added. "I won't tell her, not yet anyways." She said ascending up the first step. Relief swept over Remus's face and Lily couldn't help but wonder what he was so afraid of.
Lily made her way up the stairs quickly, almost flying up the steps. When she reached the top step she sped off to the 6th year dormitories. She flung open the door and looked around a moment. No one appeared to be there. She scanned the room a few times more when she noticed a large bump in the sheets on the bed farthest from the door. Lily grinned to herself. She took a few strides over to the bed and sat on the edge. She could hear muffled weeping from under the covers.
"Hey Ginny," Lily said brightly, patting the covers. "You can come down now, no one really saw. Except for James. And Sirius. And Peter...but no one else really," she grinned in spite of herself. She purposely did not mention Remus, hoping that Ginny would bring him up and it would just prove she fancied him. Ginny sobbed a little.
"And Remus," she sniffed. "Please just leave me alone," she said rolling on to her other side, rumpling the covers. "I've embarrassed you enough." Lily got to her feet and tugged the covers off her friend. Ginny was on her side, her hair that had taken so long to do was now messy and her eyes seemed a little bit red. As soon as she tugged the covers off, Ginny pulled them back, and Lily pulled them off again. But Ginny pulled them back. They did this for several minutes until Lily had the sense to vanish them with her wand.
"Now don't be silly, it really wasn't that big of the deal. I mean you fell down the stairs everybody does it. And besides I think they were more worried if you were all right then amused by it. And, out of curiosity what makes you say Remus was there. You don't by any chance...well. I dunno – "
"NO!" Ginny said at once sitting upright on her bed, feeling the need to answer quickly otherwise it would look like a lie. "I just said him because you left him out, on purpose! He has nothing to do with this. I'm just so upset I'm so...BLOODY CLUMSY! Ok? I'm embarrassed ok? I mean I just fell down the stairs in front of Re – people...so naturally I'd be upset sheesh!" she exploded wiping her tears with the back of her sleeve and then buried her face in her pillow.
"You know," Lily began. "I really doubt Re – I mean 'people' care about that at all. Really I think they were more worried if you had hurt yourself. Now come on, we're going to miss breakfast. Let's get out of here," she said tugging at Ginny's arm a little.
"I'm not hungry!" Ginny said at once, pulling her arm back from Lily's grip. "Now leave me alone!" she said irritably. Lily pulled her hand a little more so that she could get her other hand on it. She continued to tug. Finally, with one quick tug she pulled Ginny out of the bed by surprise. Ginny hit the floor with a hard thump.
"Now we're even," she said brightly, as Ginny began to push herself off the floor. "See? I pulled you off the bed, and you opened the door while I was leaning on it? Fair? Wait a second, you did knock me down the stairs though right? I think that qualifies as you still owing me something eh? Well since you do, I say get out of bed," she said offering Ginny a hand. Ginny looked rather disgruntled from being yanked out of her bed.
"You're going to waste that on getting me downstairs?" Ginny said irritably, going for her bed again. "You could at least make me, I dunno moon a professor or something? I mean why do you want me to go downstairs so badly?"
"Because," Lily said pulling at her arm again. "I want you to have a fun Christmas, now move!" she demanded, giving Ginny a hard tug off the bed again.
"Fine," she said crossly, as Lily continued to pull her out the door.
A few minutes later, Lily reappeared to the boys down the stairs, tugging the red-faced Ginny at her side. Remus looked up at Ginny and couldn't help blushing himself. Ginny looked around the Common Room and spotted him. This made her tug harder towards the dormitories. Lily noticed the increased tugging and quickly pulled out her wand.
"Oh Ginny," she whispered. Ginny looked back a moment to see Lily twirling a wand around in her left hand. She felt herself gulp and ceased pulling. Lily smiled to herself and pocketed her wand, as she began stepping down the stairs. Ginny hesitantly followed, hanging her head in the process. To move things a little faster, Lily began picking up her pace, dragging Ginny along with her, who did not look very happy about it. When the two reached the bottom of the staircase James, Peter, Sirius and Remus were standing there, all silent apparently waiting for something to happen. Lily reached the bottom and starred around at them, expecting one of them to say something. They all starred at her probably thinking she would do the same. Lily glanced back at Ginny who she hoped might say something but instead put a hand up to her face, in hopes to isolate herself. As Lily looked at Ginny, Ginny could feel several other stares follow. There was silence. Finally Lily decided she should break the awkwardness.
"So...breakfast is probably hot and ready. What say we all go down and get some together?" Everyone murmered their agreement, no one really all the loud not wanting to stand out. Ginny felt like running back upstairs, but she knew that if she did she'd most likely be more embarrassed. She barely nodded her head.
"All right then! Off to the Great Hall!" said Lily in a singsong voice. She grabbed Ginny's wrist, as though she thought Ginny would retreat if she didn't. She led the way out of the Common Room. Ginny struggled to keep up with Lily, who was taking long fast strides (in hopefulness of getting Ginny to hang in the back with Remus).
"Evans, slow down! It's only breakfast!" cried James who took a couple of leaps to keep up with her.
"Breakfast or not we should—"she stopped in mid-sentence. "Oh no!" she said, not sounding nearly concerned enough as she should have been. "I left a special book of mine back in the dormitories...I need to go get it!" She glanced at Ginny from the corner of her eye.
"I'll come," said Ginny quickly, jumping over to her. .
Lily shook her head. "No, I don't want to keep you from breakfast. You go on, I'll meet you there in a bit." She said pushing Ginny a little bit over towards to door.
"Really, Lily, I don't mind com—"she began.
"I'll meet you there in a bit," said Lily, growled, making her sound rather mad. Ginny looked taken aback for a second with that 'What did I do?' look on her face.
"Well...ok, if you really want to," Ginny said taking a step back, hoping lily wouldn't snap at her again.
"I—er—left a book behind too! I'll go back with Evans," James said quickly, jumping to her side. Lily shot him a look. "I did!" he insisted putting his hands on his hips.
"I didn't know you could read," Lily said, as she cocked an eyebrow at him, leaning up a nearby wall grimacing. Peter was sent into a fit of giggles while. After awhile it just got old, he was rolling on the floor gasping for breath ("didn't....know....you...read!")
Sirius grinned a bit at Lily's comment. His frown faded slightly when James shot a quick glare at him. He looked over at Lily who was looking at him in a way that suggested 'we-need-to-let-them-be-alone-so-make-up-an-excuse-fast!' "And I forgot to put on my lucky sweatshirt...pity me. Looks like I'll have to go back and change it," he said quickly.
Peter looked at them all, clueless. "Gee, you guys are so forgetful! I'll just go with Remus and Ginny—"he began but Sirius elbowed him in the ribs.
"NO! I mean, you have to get your glasses right Peter? So you should do that now. With us," he said meaningfully pulling a little at Peter's arm. Peter blinked.
"I don't own glasses." He said blankly
Sirius did his best not to punch him. "Yes you do!" And with that he grabbed Peter and whisked him away down the corridors.
"I hope you two don't mind! We'll only be a moment," said Lily, jogging to catch up with Sirius and Peter. James ran after Lily.
Remus and Ginny said nothing. They continued silently down the hall. Remus looked at Ginny from the corner of his eye. Her eyes still looked sad, almost like large pools of brownish amber that he could get lost in if he looked too long. Her very long, very red hair cascaded over her shoulders, and it looked very graceful as she walked silently down the hall. It bounced in rhythm with her steps which almost fixated him. He could see her cheeks were still flushed from embarrassment, but it looked cute with the freckles that lightly dotted her skin. He caught himself starring and abruptly turned away.
As they walked down an especially long corridor, Ginny decided she could steal a quick glance at him without him noticing. She couldn't help it, she really wanted to look at him, see his perfect features but she had not allowed herself because the last time she did she wound up falling down a flight of stairs. But she couldn't help herself anymore. Her head turned slightly and she could see him walking with his head down, his beautiful sandy brown hair falling around his eyes. His eyes were down on the floor yet she could see their clear misty blue color. His lips looked like they were frowning, and Ginny almost shivered as she starred at them, thinking of how much she wanted to press her own to them. She felt a pang of guilt, thinking about how old he really was. She studied his cheeks which looked slightly flushed and she spotted a cut. It looked like he had a bit of an accident shaving, which made Ginny giggle slightly. Remus's eyes darted up to meet hers at the sound of her giggle. Ginny quickly tore her eyes away as she blushed crimson.
They continued walking, nothing but the sound of their shoes were heard on the cold stone floor. Even though Ginny had just been caught starring, she found the urge to look at him again return. This time she'd be more careful. She felt her head tilt sideways a little and she resumed where she had been before. Yes, his perfect face. She felt her eyes travel down to his neck, and she noticed something very interesting. A small glint of silver was revealed under his robes. Ginny couldn't help gasp when she figured out what it was. A necklace. Her Necklace. Ginny felt her heart pace a little faster. Oh my god, he's wearing my necklace. He actually liked it! Oh god...oh god... she thought as she whirled her head back to straight ahead, in case he had heard her gasp. Her heart was thumping so loud she was sure enough he could hear. Ginny gulped. I can't believe it, he's wearing my gift. Of course he didn't know I gave it to him, but still! I got to find out what he thinks about it.
Ginny could hardly contain herself. A large grin sneaked across her face and she seemed to completely forget about what happened in the Common Room. She felt her dragged steps become a little lighter, and her sagging head came up with her brightened feeling. The day was definitely looking up.
Lucius Malfoy was on Christmas vacation at Hogwarts. However this was no time to stop working, in fact he'd need to work extra hard now, now that he had a task to be done. One that could not be failed. He had a hard time throwing off Narcissa, Crabbe and Goyle the last few days. Every chance she got she'd grab his arm and start cuddling with him. Often times Crabbe and Goyle would look either disgusted or envious. He had to tell her a few times that he needed to write a letter to his mum or that he had too much homework from letter. Usually after he did this she'd stalk off with her arms folded putting on a big frown to let everyone know she was upset.
Today, on Christmas Lucius decided to avoid all the awkwardness of lying and got up extra early so that no one would bother him. He had hoped the librarian would be there. Tom Riddle had assured him that she'd be there whenever he decided to start which led Lucius to believe that he might have done something that perhaps wasn't entirely legal. He got up at six thirty in the morning, to the sound of an usually loud snore from Goyle. He quickly dressed in his school robes, feeling no reason to waste his good clothes on going to library... (honestly...why should he wear good clothes among commoners?). He grabbed his note and exited the dormitories silently.
When he arrived at the library, indeed the librarian was standing there. She looked rather rigid and stiff as though she had been standing there for hours. Lucious cautiously entered the library, feeling slightly out of place here. He hardly ever went to library, not feeling the need to study. He could see it was still semi-dark outside, the light of dawn just barely escaping over the horizon. Lucius carefully approached the librarian's desk. Her gaze which had been stationed at a book case near one of the tables shifted to Lucius. He stopped when he felt her gaze upon him.
"What can I do for you young man?" she said, her voice stiff and emotionless. Very strange, Lucius thought to himself. My master must have done something to this woman. Perhaps...Imperius Curse? How clever...he thought as he examined his note which was crumpled having been balled up in his fist a moment before.
"I require a book from the Restricted Section Madam, I believe it's called Most Potente Potions, you know it?" he said revealing his notes to her. She turned around and hastily slapped a book down in front of him. Wow...that was quick...he said as he gave a slight shudder at the books impact to the desk. She grabbed the note from his unready hand with one quick sweep and remained unmoving after that. Lucius eyed the large book. It looked as though it had been through the giant squid on a bad day. Lucius made a disgusted look, as though not wanted to touch it. He tried to pick it up with the tips of his fingers which proved to be too heavy for his grasp. With and exasperated sigh he pulled the heavy book into his arms, wincing slightly and then whisked away to one of the tables.
He dropped it with a loud thud on the closest table he could find. He expected the librarian to shush him, but when he looked over to her, she remained unmoving. Lucius turned back around and took a seat in front of the book. He flipped open the contents and starred down at the Table of Contents which proved to be several P's. He flipped through the A's, B's C's and so on until he reached the P's. He slid his finger down the list of the potions starting with 'P.'
"Perimo Potion, Pessum Draught, nope. Er..." Out of irritation of going through all the P's his hand sped downwards towards all the 'Poly' potions (there being quite a few of them). "Polyinfensus, no, no, Polyintorqueo, uh uh, Ah here!" He said as his tired finger reached the words "Polyjuice Potion." His eyes sped across the dots to find the page number. He flipped the big book open to the middle and flipped around until he found the correct page.
His eyes scanned the old parchment. He shivered in disbelief. There were ugly witches, like the mudblood that had died a few years previous changing into beautiful young women like his girlfriend. He flinched at the sight of their faces, in pain that looked like it exceeded Crucio. He hoped for his own sake the artist was exaggerating. He began reading over the directions and figuring out how he'd do everything without being caught by the other teachers.
It was barely an hour later when he could hear faint noises of other people. Yes the students who were there were beginning to wake up and were heading towards the Great Hall for breakfast. Lucius decided it was in his best interest if he left now before any studious Ravenclaw came in and found him there. They'd most likely be suspicious of what he was doing and report it to the Head of House. He was not going to risk that. He was quite unsure how he was going to walk through the corridors with a heavy book in his arms without looking conspicuous. He cast a vanishing spell that he had just learned in Transfiguration recently on it, and then levitated it. He flicked his wand slightly so the invisible book would float silently behind him. He just hoped no one would bump into it accidentally.
As he warily walked through the hallways, he avoided all the teachers or students he happened to see. As he was walking through an empty hallway he heard steps on the stone floor. It sounded like more than one set of foot steps, yet he could hear no voices. He grimaced, thinking he'd have to wait 'til whoever they were passed by. He peaked down the hallway and saw two figures walking down the hallway. One was quite short, it was a girl. He could tell by the long red hair that graced her shoulders. The other was taller by about a head. Sandy brown hair...it could only be Lupin. Lucius laughed. The other one must have been Ginny Weasley whom his master seemed so fond of. The Dark Lord had suggested Miss Weasley had a fondness for Lupin so it was no surprise they'd be walking together. Lucius saw this as an opportunity to get the hair he needed for the Polyjuice Potion. Lucius pulled out his wand and snickered to himself. The very heavy book moved out in front of him. Lucius snapped his wand at Remus and he felt the wind of the book rushing past him towards the place were the wand directed it.
Ginny continued starring straight ahead of her, not wanting to make Remus suspicious, however she found it highly difficult. She wanted so much to ask him what he thought about it. Well why can't I? I mean it is visible and I could just be asking about it, what could it hurt? I'm sure he doesn't think I gave it to him. She thought reasoning with herself. She opened her mouth and turned to him to ask about the necklace however she never got the chance. Remus was walking beside her when suddenly she could see his legs bolt forward and his body hurtled towards the ground. Ginny gave a startled cry, before she sunk to the ground beside him.
"Remus! Oh my goodness," she said starring bemused at him. "What happened? Are you all right? Remus?" she said slightly panicked. His eyes were closed but he put a hand up to his head. He groaned in pain. "Remus!" she repeated. She could hear a snicker behind her. He head whipped around to show a very smug Lucius Malfoy standing before her. Her eyes narrowed.
"What have you done to him!" she demanded, standing up face him, her fingers curled around her wand that was in her pocket. Lucius's broad smile got even bigger. Remus was struggling to sit up right at the moment, and when he gave a tiny whimper of distress Ginny bent down to help him before the attacker answered her. She helped push him up a little more, her arm around him for more support.
"My goodness, how adorable." Lucius laughed maliciously. He took a step towards them, but Ginny whipped out her wand. "DON'T YOU TOUCH HIM!" she yelled at him. (Yes West Side Story, Maria says this when her beloved dies in front of them. Oh it's so sad!!!!!!) Lucius gave a startled jump at the sound of her enraged voice. However he pointed his own wand at her and glared at her.
"I want nothing to do with him. The poor fool couldn't buy his way out of a paper bag," he scoffed. Ginny's brownish amber eyes glowed red and she rose to her feet in a very threatening manner. Lucius however did not look the least bit intimidated. He glared at her for a long time. With a quick motion and a murmur a flash of dark blue light shot from his wand and straight for Ginny. Ginny being completely preoccupied with starring him down had not expected it and she unexpectedly flipped and fell on her face a few feet away. Lucius strode over to were Remus Lupin had been sitting, who looked horrified where Ginny had landed. Remus heard his footsteps but did not look back. All he felt was a sharp pain at the back of his head. Lucius grabbed the brown hair atop his head and pulled him to his feet. Lucius gave a satisfied look at the amount of pain on Remus's face. In an instant, he yanked a few of the sandy brown hairs from Remus's head and Remus sank to the floor grabbing his head in pain. He felt like Rapunzel, when the Prince had to climb up her hair.
Lucius examined the hairs in his hand a moment and then placed them in a tiny glass jar that had been hiding in the pockets of his robes. After he tucked them safely away, he smiled and patted his pocket. His master would be pleased.
He had not even heard the rushing footsteps of Ginny Weasley, he was so pleased. She rushed toward him in a fit of rage and pounced on his unexpectedly. She wrestled him to the floor. He tried to throw her off best he could but she proved to be much angrier and therefore a lot stronger at the moment. With his hand pulled behind his back he kicked her in the stomach and Ginny winced in pain, easing her grip on his wrists. Pushing her off him, he scrambled for his wand which was lying uselessly on the floor having fallen on the floor. Lucius quickly patted his pocket to make sure he still had the hairs. He was lucky he still did. He grabbed his wand with a scoop and faced Ginny who was already on her feet, her wand in her hand.
"Exspiro!" he shouted, pointing his wand at her.
"Circumvallo!" she retaliated. The flash of sliver clashed with the gold light illuminating from Ginny's wand. The powerful curses collided with each other, one trying to dominate the other. They both proved to be no match for the other one. In a fiery ball, the curses exploded sending the casters backwards into the stone wall of the corridor. Ginny was much lighter and flew a lot father. She ended up coming a few feet off the ground, her back making full force of the wall. She slid down the wall in a heap on the floor. She groaned in pain as she tried to stand, which proved to be too hard at the moment. Lucius stumbled backwards and tripped over his feet and made contact with the hard floor. He rolled over onto his stomach and pushed himself up.
There was quite a bit of smoke in the corridor and he was unable to see anything. He was certain someone must have heard the explosion, though it may have not been a really huge one, it still had made some noise. He decided to get out of there before any teachers came running. He hesitantly got to his feet, coughing on the smoke that still lingered in the hallway. He reached into his pocket and found he no longer had the hairs that he had gone through all of this to get. He shook his head angrily. He also had no idea where the book was either. He strained his eyes to see if he saw any sign of the hairs, but the smoke got into his eyes and he needed to shut them.
"Accio vile!" he said through the smoky air. The tiny glass vile flew into his outstretched hand and he shoved it into his pocket.
"Accio Most Potente Potions!" he shouted. His arm was stretched out from his body awaiting the book. He waited a few seconds, wondering where the hell it was. After growing impatient he let his arm drop and decided he could always get the book later. As he was about to turn something large and heavy slammed into his chest and he staggered backwards under its weight. He irritably pushed the still invisible book off him and got to his feet, slightly short of breath. After he regained his normal breathing pattern he bent down and felt around for the book. His hand brushed the spine of the book and Lucius rushed to pick it up. He could hear voices not too far away so he sprang to his feet. He pocketed his wand and then ran out of sight.
Lily Evans was stretched out over one of the couches in the Gryffindor Common Room. She was smiling to herself pleased with her work. James Potter was sitting on the couch opposite her, leaning back with his head behind his head. Sirius Black was sitting on the arm of the couch next to James, and a very disgruntled Peter Pettigrew was sitting on the floor cross-legged. They had been listening to Peter's complaints now and were getting rather sick of it.
"I don't have glasses!" he insisted, his arms folded. "And I'm really hungry! Why couldn't I go eat with Remus!" he whined, looking ever so annoyed. Sirius rolled his eyes.
"Dim one! We know you don't have glasses. However we wanted to get Moony and the new girl alone," he said slightly exasperated, as he put a hand back on the couch's arm to steady himself. Peter looked even more confused then before. He scratched his head and then looked at Sirius.
"Why did you want to do that?" he asked. Sirius could hear James sigh from behind him and Lily slap her head. Sirius grumbled at bit at Peter's ignorance.
"Because!" Lily said standing up before Sirius had a chance to explain. "We think Ginny and Remus like each other for heavens sake!" she said annoyed as she flopped back onto the couch. Peter's eyebrows knitted, obviously still not getting it. Lily noticed his look and sighed to herself. She stood up again walked over to where Peter was sitting. "See we think they like each other and if they spend more time together, alone they might realize it." Peter still looked at Lily like she had three times.
"Why don't they know they like each other?" he asked. Lily sighed and sunk to the floor agitated. James gave a hearty laugh at her attempt to make Peter understand. Lily no longer felt proud at her ability to get Ginny and Remus together. James got up and walked over to where she now sat.
"There, there Evans," he said to her, bending down and patting her head as if she were a young child. She glared at him, which sent him onto his butt. Her looks couldn't kill, but they sure were close enough. "I mean," he said getting to his crouched position again. "There is a certain way to get Wormtail to understand you, watch," he said getting up and walking over to Peter.
"Hey Wormtail, what Evans means is simple. Do you remember what I told you about prefects right?" he said to him, bending down and putting his arm around his shoulders. Peter nodded.
"Yeah you told me they have those 'period' thingys, and that they act really weird during one time of the month." Peter said recalling what James had told him the night lily caught them on a midnight stroll.
"Exactly, well see Lily is having that right now." Lily stood up red in the face. James glanced back her momentarily and laughed slightly. "She's a bit sensitive about it. Anyway, she's not thinking clearly exactly. She thinks if they spend enough time together alone, one of those muggle cupid will shoot them with the an arrow." Peter looked as if he understood it a little better.
"So she thinks that 'cause of her period?" he said sorting out what he had just been told. James nodded smiling a bit.
"That's right," Peter smiled thinking he had figured everything out. A very annoyed Lily Evans strode over to James in quick paces and grabbed his shirt collar, bringing him up to her height. She dragged him over to the corner of the Common Room greatly annoyed. She shoved him in the corner and put her hands on her hips.
"Is this what you tell Peter? Lies!!" she said irritably. "You told him only Prefects have periods and Remus, of all people has ONE!" she demanded, throwing her hands up in frenzy. James, shrunk down a little, putting his finger up as to speak, but something interrupted him. They heard a low rumble coming from outside the portrait hole and far down a hallway. Lily turned at the sound and James craned his neck over her shoulder trying to see if something had happened. Peter, startled gave a small jump and scrambled over towards the couch were Sirius had been previously sitting. Sirius was now on his feet starring at the portrait hole.
"What the bloody hell was that?" he asked, his eyes almost trying to see beyond the wall. "You reckon Mrs. Norris finally got close enough to our Exploding Snaps?" he said looking back at James, who was peering over Lily's shoulder. Lily stepped forward a bit, straining her ear to hear something else.
"Let's go check it out," Lily insisted. James gave a silent cheer she hadn't creamed him for being a 'bad influence' on Peter and followed her. Sirius was quick behind James, and Peter figured if they were out the door, they might go to eat breakfast. His tummy had been rumbling and he did not deny his stomach of moving closer towards food. The four of them trouped out of the Common Room in search of the noise.
After they stepped outside, they all pondered where the noise had come from. Actually only Peter had. He insisted it came from the bathrooms, when Lily, James and Sirius all tried to explain that the bathrooms were much to far away and that it most likely came in the direction of the Great Hall. After James 'explained' things to Peter, he finally agreed to go that way.
As they rounded a corner, their noses began to pick up an odd scent. A scent of smoke...
"What the bloody hell is that? Did someone set a Dungbomb off!" Sirius said pinching his nose. James waved the air in front of his nose, almost choking on it. Lily however looked curious and she sniffed it to figure out what it was. James looked at her in confusion.
"What are you doing? This stuff smells awful! It smells even worse than Snivellius!" James said, his nose covered with both hands now. Lily ignored him, and sniffed the air again as to identify it. Her eyes opened in realization.
"It's smoke, hurry! We have to find out where it came from!" She said grabbing James's wrist and dragging him down the corridor to the origin of the awful stink. Sirius followed closely behind and Peter did his best to keep up with him (though he really couldn't). Lily took a few more turns, wrenching James's wrist as she dragged him a long. She began to get short of breath from running, and the smoke getting into her lungs. She rounded a corner and found the source of the problem.
They came upon a foggy hallway. The smoke was visible, though not dark and thick, it seemed to have thinned out a bit. Lily scanned her surroundings in search for what caused this. Oh my goodness, she thought. Did someone let off a firecracker? She looked back at James and Sirius, how ever they looked puzzled and their hands were clamped tightly over their noses. No, they were with me, I don't think they did it. Who could have done this? Her thoughts were interrupted by a loud, hacking cough coming from the smoky corridor. Lily panicked and ran into the smoke, hoping that no one hurt. James seeing this ran in after her, and of course was followed by Sirius. Peter stayed behind, pinching his nose with his forefingers.
Luckily for Lily, the smoke was clearing up and made a faint outline of something on the floor. A few feet away she could seen an outline of another figure that appeared to be sitting upright. She dashed over to them, James and Sirius following. As she neared the figures she realized who they were.
"Oh my god..." she whispered looking at them. Sirius and James ran to catch up with her. When they reached her, they were both panting from the smoke in their lungs. James rested some of his weight on Lily's shoulder and Sirius was crouched over, his hands on his knees.
"What is it? What's wrong?" James said, short of breath. Lily looked around horrified almost.
"Ginny and Remus, someone attacked them..." she said starring at the two hopelessly.
"What?" James said, bewildered. Lily motioned for him to look straight ahead. Indeed she appeared to be right. Ginny was curled up on the floor, her eyes closed. She did not seem to be dead, or even unconscious, but too tired, or in too much pain to get up. He looked to his left, and a few feet away Remus was propped up against the stone wall, his face buried in his hands. James and Sirius ran over to him.
"Moony!" they called to him. He lifted his head at the sound of his nickname. "Moony!" they said again running over to him. Lily kneeled beside Ginny, stirred a little, feeling that someone was close by. Lily patted Ginny's shoulder.
"Ginny, wake up. Please wake up so I know you're ok," she pleaded, shaking her friend's shoulder harder. She could hear Sirius and James now talking with Remus. Or talking to him. She could make out their distinct voices. "Ginny," she said again. "Come on, please wake up." She begged. Ginny's lip moved nervously as though she had just thought of something upsetting. Her eyelids flicked open much to the relief of Lily.
"Ginny!" she cried, almost hysterically. "You're all right!" She bent down to give her friend a hug. Ginny laughed softly, but it turned into a cough. Lily hearing this decided she needed to either clear the smoke up or get her friend away from it. She managed to swing Ginny's right arm around her shoulders and lifted Ginny up onto her feet. She glanced over at Sirius and James, who now had Remus supported between them. They back tracked their steps so they could find Peter, in hopes he could help them carry the victims. Lily dragged her friend through the smoke, though she found it quite difficult. She seemed to sag under the weight of Ginny, but she persisted never the less. However shortly, she found it too pressing and she sat Ginny down so she could rest a minute.
"Ginny," she breathed. "What happened here, who did this to you and Remus?" Lily said leaning up against the wall. Ginny took a deep breath and it wound up as a harsh and violent cough. Ginny hacked a few more coughs and then touched her head in pain.
"It was..." she began, but her sentence turned into a cough. Lily squatted down and put a comforting arm around her friend, who she could now see her features since the smoke had subsided a little more. She had red marks on her face, deep gashes. Her new clothes and hair were covered in black soot. Her eyes looked a bit watery too.
"Ginny, tell me who did this," Lily said sternly. Ginny nodded, starring down at the floor in the process.
"It was Lucius Malfoy."
Author's Note: Okay serious time for name change! I really need help with a new title, if anyone can help. And I'll gladly credit you. :D :D Moving on. Been reading a lot of fanfiction and I realized the idea of someone going back in time with Hermione's time turner is ENTIRELY overused. But –uh...I still like my fic. I mean it's sort of different right? ::looks at reviews for reassurance, reviewers however look at branmuffinpower with that 'it's way too overused' look:: Bah...I don't care if it's the most overused plot ever. I still like it! ::hugs story:: ANYWAYS...now thank yous :D
DarkAngel31: What I meant was (by 'no one remembered her but him') was that no one remembered past Ginny, AKA Virginia Weston. And if you think about it no one would. He doesn't know she's really Ginevra Weasley, so he doesn't think Dumbledore would remember her. And Sirius, Lily, James are dead so they can't. I doubt Peter has much time to remember her since he's a Voldie supporter. So yeah, he means no body remembered Ginny's past self rather than present self. Oh and you're welcome for the Draco, tell him sorry about the cage thing :D Oh and guess what? I got a Not-so-evil Draco plushie! You want it? :D
Deal-with-it: You're right, he didn't kill Lois with those grenades! BAH! Oh well still, they'd be helpful right? I guess, sort of maybe. Anyway I would LOVE remus plushie! That way I could squeeze him and love him and I would sleep with him at night (hah, pun...you know like when kids sleep with teddybears. Hahaha...that was pathetic). Not the Sirius isn't cool, but Remus ::drools:: :D THANK YOU FOR OFFERING THE REMUS :D :D :D :D ::sniff:: It's wonderful. Wow...Dan Radcliff naked? LE GASP! That would be very interesting. Personally I'm more of a Rupert Grint fan, but hey! I think that would somewhat interesting to see. I can't wait to cuddle with my Remus plushie :D :D Thanks for the review! Oh and ::reaches into military crate:: Have a bazooka! They're great for threatening authors :D :D
