Chapter 7: Unhappy

Enjoy:


"Carly!" Lily screamed over the other girls screams. Carly kept screaming. "You'll wake up the entire tower! Carly!" Lily yelled approaching Carly. She wouldn't stop screaming so Lily drew her hand back and slapped her across the face. Carly stopped and looked up at Lily with a hand on her cheek,

"What was that for?"

"To get you to stop screaming. Now what happened?" Lily asked sitting on the edge of Carly's bed. Carly drew up her covers and shook her head,

"Nothing…It was nothing…Just a bad dream…Yeah just a dream." Carly said wide eyed. Lily's eyes narrowed,

"Do you want to tell me about it?" Carly shook her head and closed her eyes again.

"What's up with Lay?" Sirius asked sitting down at breakfast asking Lily and looking at Carly. Carly's eyes were wide and she was mumbling to her self pushing her food around her plate. Lily leaned in closer to Sirius and James did also,

"Last night," she said looking at Carly again who was doing the same thing as before and not paying attention to them, "she woke up screaming."

"What!" Sirius hissed glancing at Carly with a worried expression, "What happened?" Lily shook her head,

"I have no idea. She just mumbled it was a bad dream and went back to sleep. She wouldn't tell me anything."

"Maybe it was just a bad dream." James said putting a spoonful of oatmeal in his mouth,

"Yeah, but when I have a bad dream I don't act like that." Lily said jerking her head towards Carly. James shrugged and Sirius turned his head to talk to Carly but before he could Lily stopped him, "Don't she'll freak out. I tried before." Sirius ignored Lily and said,

"Hello Carly." Carly jumped off the bench.

"What!" She shrieked grabbing her bag.

"Just said hello." Sirius said standing up also sticking out his arm to take her bag. Carly narrowed her eyes and pulled her bag away from Sirius and stormed out of the Great Hall.

"Told you." Lily said as Sirius slumped back down in his seat looking dejected.

For the rest of the day Carly wouldn't talk to Sirius, even when he approached her she would scream pull her bag away from him and run away. She was continually jumpy and looked over her shoulder as if someone was following her. She also constantly poked Lily to make sure she was alive.

"Alright Carly, what the bloody hell is going on!" Lily said corning Carly in the common room later that night,

"Nothing." Carly said averting her eyes. Lily sighed and walked to join the boys. Remus who had showed up around mid day leaned in towards Lily as she sat down,

"Is she…you know…that time of the month…?" Lily laughed and shrugged,

"I don't know. I highly doubt it though. No one acts this weird." Sirius wasn't even paying attention to the group. His eyes were watching Carly as she looked over her shoulder and disappeared up the staircase.

"I'm going to bed." He said getting up and leaving. Lily was about to say that it was only 7:30 but James stopped her,

"He's been acting weird ever sense Carly screamed at him this morning."

"Why?"

"Because…" Remus answered, "this was the day he was going to…you know."

"No, I don't know."

"Ask her out." James said. Lily gasped,

"Really? He must be feeling really rejected." James nodded, "Well maybe you could tell him something that would cheer him up."

"Like what?"

"Like how Carly has a quidditch game against Australia next Wednesday and she has tickets for you, Remus, me, Sirius, and Gideon."

"Awesome, but I don't think that'll cheer him up."

"Why not?"

"Gideon."

"Well then this should. She doesn't like him. She told me that. She actually likes Sirius. Plus just because she thinks Gideon is cute doesn't mean she would go out with him. That's just plain gross."

-Previous night before the girls went to bed-

"So, Carly…" Lily said through mouthfuls of toothpaste, "What's with this whole Gideon thing?" Carly gave Lily a mock shocked look,

"Lily, please I don't even like him. Yeah he's cute and all, but I mean come on he's four years older then me. That's just gross." Lily laughed and hopped into her bed,

"So…then who do you think is cute then?" Carly rolled over to face Lily,

"Do you even have to guess?"

"I guess not." Lily said grinning,

"So are you and James-" Carly did a motion with her hand to signify together. Lily blushed,

"I guess so." Carly grinned.

-End-

Remus smiled,

"That's what I said." James said and got up to go tell Sirius.

"Padfoot?" James said poking his head in the dorm door.

"What?" Came Sirius' voice from his bed,

"I have some good news."

"What? That Gideon Prewett fell off a bridge and Carly's standing outside the door ready to sha-"

"No, but close." James said sitting on his own bed across next to Sirius', "Carly has five tickets to her game against Australia and she invited Lily, Remus, me, you, and Gideon." James watched Sirius' face fall when Gideon's name came up,

"That's close?"

"That's not all the news I have. Lily just told me that Carly told her that Carly doesn't like Gideon. Yes she thinks he's cute, but that it's gross because he's four years older then her and..."

"…and…"

"…and she likes you." Sirius grinned,

"No one can resist the Sirius charm." James rolled his eyes.

Carly was back to normal by the next day. She didn't remember anything from yesterday and Lily told the boys to just forget about, because it might just confuse Carly.

"Sirius! Hey Sirius!" Carly said trying to catch up to him after her history lesson. He turned and waited for her. He was about to offer his arm to her, but pulled back afraid that she might yell at him again. Instead she grabbed his arm and tightly wrapped hers around it.

"Yes, Lay?" He said grinning thinking, 'thank the lord she's back to normal.'

"I was wondering if you, James, and Remus wanted to come to my game next Wednesday." Sirius grinned,

"Of course." She grinned and leaned her head against his shoulder as they walked to lunch.
