"All you have to do is make like a rat." Sirius began with a bit of a laugh. "Sneak into the dorm, find out what Angelique likes." he shrugged. "Come back and tell me." Patting Peter on the back, "It should be a piece of cake for you Wormtail."
"I d-don't...k-know about this." Peter whimpered a bit.
"Wormtail, come on mate." Sirius continued. "You were made for this job."
"O-okay Padfoot." Peter replied, as the two boys walked along the hall-way.
"Thanks a lot mate. I owe you one." With that Sirius departed, leaving Peter alone. The boy frowned. 'Why am I only useful when someone needs something.' he thought bitterly to himself. 'Wormtail do this, wormtail do that.' An instant later, Peter the boy was gone, and Wormtail the rat had taken his place.
The rat squeezed along through the holes in the wall, finding his way from the hall into the girl's dorm room. It wasn't long before he could hear the girl's laughter as they gossiped and talked among each other. He recognized Angelique's soft tones, it sounded like sweet music playing on a spring breeze. No wonder Sirius was interested in this girl. Angelique had long blonde hair, that wrapped in spiral curls that fell down the sides of her face. Her face looked like porcelain, and the little rat hand ached to touch the smoothness. And those eyes...they shined brightly like sapphires.
"I seen you talking to Sirius Black again today." a brunette girl teased the blonde.
Angelique rolled her eyes. "More like he was talking to me. There is no getting away from that boy." but she smiled, and giggled. "But he is nice to look at."
"And what about his friends." Another girl added, pretending to fan herself. "They aren't too hard on the eyes either." Her short black hair moved a bit with the motion of her hand.
Another blonde girl spoke up, "Too bad James Potter is taken with that Lily Evans. He is quite the catch."
"And Remus Lupin." the brunette again. "Although he seems to be wasting his time on that Slytherin trollop" the girl shook her head. "Such a pity."
"What is really a pity..." Angelique began, "Is how they are always being followed around by that Pettigrew boy." The blonde ringlets bounced as she shook her head. "Pathetic really. You would think they would so something to shoo him off." she laughed lightly.
The rat in the wall dropped his head. "Maybe Remus can pawn that Lorelei girl off on him." the black hair girl suggested with a giggle. "Although she's probably better off with Severus Snape." A shrill cackle swept through the room. Wormtail, turned tail, and crept back through the walls. 'They don't even know my first name.' he thought as he wandered through the hall. 'Didn't get Sirius's information either. Aside from the fact that they don't like me...no one likes me.' He scurried along soon finding himself outside the Gryffindor common room.
A few moments later found Peter Pettigrew pushing his way into the boy's dorm room. He was met with the soft sounds of snoring. 'Not even important enough to wait up for.' he frowned, taking note that the other three boys were fast asleep. 'I have classes in the morning too. Do they care? I have homework to do as well...but no...Go spy on girl's for me Wormtail.' Peter sighed heavily, making ready for bed.
