A/N: I have finally decided to include some Voldemort in my fic. You know, like killings and all. I have finally gotten AIM, so here's my name for it: mysticangel576. You can send me an IM if you want too, love to talk so...... You should also expect less updates from me since school is gonna start in a week. Seriously, why does school start on August 9th? In Russia, it starts on September 1st. That's a month later!!!

And thanks to people who reviewed. I'm starting to think that most people just read WITHOUT reviewing. How silly is that? I expect better of you next time.

Auntarctic: Like I said, it's no problem at all for me to check your chapters. You can blame my mom for me not updating a lot. She's the one that won't buy me my own computer. And that's not fair since she says that it'll be a waste of money, well, a waste of money is what you call getting a second wide screen TV, a second brand new very expensive computer, and a second apartment. That's a waste of money, not my laptop that I want. :-(

Allie: That was the shortest review in history. One word, oh. Lol

Emilym.47: I did send you an e-mail again. And once again, thanks for the gown. And don't all of us wish for Lily and James to get back together. And I just wanted to have Stacy go out with Michael because, actually I don't know myself. Well, She did feel guilty so she learned her lesson, right? And About Orlando, well, right now, I don't like him either since he's between Lily and James but I figured this fic needed something sad.

Book Lover990: I will update ASAP. And do you know that you reviewed 2 times for the same chapter?

Bad News

Lily was reading the front page of the Daily Prophet at breakfast. She read it out loud to Stacy and Maria.

'YOU-KNOW-WHO KILLS'

Yesterday around 10 pm, You-know-who killed the Feuder family. Cedric Feuder, an Auror at the Ministry of Magic, was tortured and kidnapped. Where he is, or if he's still alive, is currently unknown. However, his wife, Rebecca Feuder, and his 3 kids, Nick (15), Jessica (11), and Courtney (6)Feuder, were killed and so was the Feuder dog, Chuppy. Peter Hunt, the Feuder's neighbor, was coming home from working late and found the Feuder house in ruins. In the sky was the Dark Lord's mark, hanging right above the ruined house. Hunt immediately called Ministry officials to the scene of the crime...

"So you've heard huh?" Sirius came up to them.

"Just read it." Said Lily.

"It's sad isn't it?"

"yeah." Said Stacy.

"Remus is really depressed."

"Why?"

"The Rebecca Feuder was his mothers sister."

"Oh, I hope he's gonna be all right." Said Maria.

"He will be. He just needs some time to himself. He's going to go visit his mother this weekend, they're gonna be at cemetery to burry them."

"Where is he right now?" asked Maria.

"Dunno. I think he's outside. But—

Without another word Maria stood up and left.

"What's up with her?" asked Lily.

"Lily, don't you know?"

"Know what?"

"Haven't you seen how she looks at Remus?"

"no."

"Oh my god, Lily, it's so obvious that she likes him." said Stacy.

"So what are you gonna do about it?"

"I dunno." Said Sirius.

"No I meant Stacy."

"I don't know."

"Oh come on, you're the school matchmaker, the queen of gossip. You must have some idea." Said Lily.

"I don't."

"Okay, we need to get them together."

"How about let nature take it's course? Personally, I don't believe in that, but Maria and Remus, they're a special case." Said Sirius.

"I have to agree with Sirius." Said Stacy.

"No duh, of course you have to agree with him, he's your boyfriend." Said Lily.

Stacy smiled.

"Now ladies, I think class awaits us." Said Sirius.

"hey Padfoot, are you planning to go to— James topped seeing the look on Lily's face when he came up. "Actually, I'll go ahead by myself, see you there." James tried to hastily get away but Sirius stopped him.

"No, walk with us."

"Well..."

"Excellent."

"Actually, I'll think I'll go on ahead." Said Lily, getting away. "See you in class."

"Oh no you don't." Stacy grabbed Lily's bag to stop her. "We're all walking together."

"But—

"But—

"NO BUTS!!!" said Stacy and Sirius together

"Okay mommy." Said James.

"But—

"Lily, get over it. We're walking together and that's final." Said Stacy.

"But—, oh, why is life so unfair?"

"Hey Remus." Said Maria, walking over to Remus who was sitting on the bank of the lake.

"Hey."

"Are you okay?"

"I guess. Jessica was my favorite cousin and now she's gone."

"I'm so sorry." Maria sat down with him.

"It's not your fault."

"But still, is there anyway that I can help you?"

"Well, I would be honored if you came to the burial." Said Remus.

"I will come."

"Thanks. I just can't believe that they're dead. I mean, just this summer Jessica got her first boyfriend, and now..." Remus drifted off.

"It wasn't your fault Remus, you didn't expect it."

"But why did they have to die? I mean, today was supposed to be Jessica's 12th birthday. She was looking forward to it so much."

"Remus, it won't do you good to just sit and mope about it."

"You know what, you're right. I'm gonna go and hunt down Voldemort myself." Remus stood up.

"UH, Remus, no way. You'll get killed."

"The I'll die happy."

"Before you get near Voldemort. Now quit your moping and lets go to DADA, we're gonna be late."

Remus helped up Maria and together they walked off.

=In the Common Room...=

"Lily, you never told us about your date." Said Maria.

'Yeah, what happened?"

Lily told them everything except the part that she missed James.

"Well, it seemed to have went pretty well." Said Stacy.

"How did your date go?" asked Maria.

"Shhhhhhhh, not so loud." Said Stacy. Then she told them about her date.

"I told you, I told you not to go on that date." Said Lily. "I knew that you would feel guilty. I told you not to go."

"Sirius was there? And he turned down girls? Wow, he really likes you. And in return, you cheated on him, tsk tsk tsk." Said Maria.

"Yes, I know, it was the most horrible thing that had ever happened to me." Said Stacy.

"How was Michael?' asked Maria.

"He is such a sweetheart, but my heart isn't for him."

"Then mine is." Said Maria.

Lily laughed. "And what about Remus?"

"Yeah, what about him?" asked Stacy.

"What about him?"

"It is so obvious you like him." said Lily.

"I do not." Said Maria.

"Uh huh, right."

"I don't!"

"Maria, you were always and probably always will be a horrible liar."

"Guess I'm busted."

"You know nothing gets by us." Said Stacy.

Sirius appeared by Stacy's side. "May I escort this lady to a certain date of hers?"

Stacy looked guilty. "Uh, sure." She took his arm and they left.

"Ooooooh, I do not want to be her right now." Said Maria.

"Why?"

"She must be experiencing such guilt."

"I gotta agree with you there."

"So when are you gonna get back together with James?" asked Maria.

"When? On the 12th of never."

"Okay, when are you gonna dump the Orlando guy?"

"When I feel like it."

"Does that mean tomorrow?"

'Ha ha ha."

"Guess not."

The two girls went back to their homework.

A/N: I need some help from you!!! Um, I don't know if I've told you this already but still, I'm getting school uniforms at my school and doesn't The Bill of Rights or something saying that nobody can tell you what to wear? Could somebody point me to the right direction please? Cause I really never learned about it, I skipped 3rd grade and only had 3 months at the end of 4th grade so I didn't learn much.
