Disclaimer: I don't own anything except Carly and her mother
I'm sorry it's really short and really rushed, but I wanted to get this up before Carly's quidditch match.
Chapter 8: Plans and Practice
Enjoy:
"Miss Mullet! Do ever pay attention in my class?" The potions master Professor Kane yelled at Carly who was dozing off while waiting for her potion to simmer. Carly bolted up right,
"Yes, Professor." He glared at her,
"Obviously not because I just told you that the headmaster wishes to see you in his office now." Carly blushed and grabbed her bag walking out of the room. Sirius winked at her as she left causing her to turn a deeper shade of red.
When she stepped out of the room she realized she had no idea where she was going. She dropped her bag and was about to turn back into the class room when someone tapped her shoulder,
"Need some help?" A voice whispered in her ear. Carly whirled around and came face to face with Regulas Black.
"Oh my God Regulas you scared me." He looked down at his feet, "Actually yeah do you know where Professor Dumbledore's office is?" He nodded,
"Yeah, follow me." He picked up her bag and handed it to her.
"Thanks. So why aren't you in class?" He shrugged and didn't answer. After a couple minutes of awkward silence he said,
"Here you go." She looked up and saw a huge gargoyle and watched Regulas leave without looking back. She then looked back at the statue and knocked on it. Nothing happened. She began to think and remembered something Sirius said,
"Dumbledore's office passwords are always a candy. Like last week it was cockroach clusters." She remembered asking him how he knew and he just tapped his nose.
"Uh…ice mice?" It didn't move, "Blood pops? Bertie Botts? Butterbeer? Chocolate frogs?" Nothing happened. After awhile of random guessing the gargoyle sprang to life and moved aside reveling a spiraling stair case. At the top was Professor Dumbledore,
"I always forget to tell the student the password when I want to see them." He said with his eyes twinkling. She smiled and walked up the steps. He led her into his office and waited for her to sit down before he began talking,
"Now if I'm correct you have a quidditch match in Australia in two days." Carly nodded, "And in this letter your mother informed me that you also would have five people going with you also." She nodded again, "Would you mind giving me the names?" He asked pulling out a long quill and a piece of parchment,
"Lily E-"
"Never mind I already know." He said writing down Remus' name James' name Lily's name and Sirius' name. Once he wrote Sirius' name he looked up as if asking who the fifth person was,
"Professor Gideon wanted to come also."
"That's right he already talked to me about it. He will meet you five there." He said standing up to show her to the door, "On October 4th come to my office at the end of lessons ready to go and I will have a protkey arranged for you."
"Thank you professor." He nodded and watched as she walked down the steps.
-The next day-
"Okay Carly now this is how the play goes…" James said tracing a play Carly knew all to well in the mud.
"I know James." James gave her a hard look and then mounted his broom,
"Then show me." She nodded and hopped on hers. Grabbing the quaffle from the other chaser Tony Stevens she took off. She squinted looking for James still flying in the air and saw him on the other side of the goal posts waiting for her throw. She threw it and he caught it zooming towards her. She dropped downwards a couple feet and began to fly the other direction to where James was. Once he was right above her he dropped the quaffle into her hands and she took off. She saw that Sasha had picked it all up and quickly tossed the quaffle to Tony who caught it and quickly threw it in the right hop. "Good job, let's run it again." Carly groaned and headed back for it again.
Later that night Carly and James sat in the common room alone doing their homework,
"Why did I ever take this class?" James said running his hands through his hair and throwing his quill down in frustration. Carly looked over at the paper he was writing on and saw it was a dream diary. She snorted and picked it up,
"It seems like every one of your dreams seem to end with either you or Sirius dieing. That's nice."
"The old bat likes it." He said snatching it back,
"I got one for you." He nodded picking up his quill again, "One day you and Sirius were flying on your brooms over the lake and the giant squid's tentacles grabbed you guys in mid air pulling you down into the deep dark murky depths. Their you gasped your last breaths and died a slow painful death while being eaten by the squid and-"
"-Like this?" A voice said behind her wrapping their arms around her waist and pulling her off her seat and onto the ground. She grinned and rolled around to face the person making sure to dig her elbows in the person's sides.
"Sort of, but your not eating me." Sirius, the one who pulled her down (AN: duh) grimaced while her elbows dug into his sides.
"I could if you wanted me to." He said waggling his eyebrows,
"Ew!" She said standing up and kneeing him in the process.
"Ow."
"That's what you get." She said smirking at him and putting her hands on her waist. "Anyway where were you?"
"The library." She gasped,
"Do you even know where that is?"
"Ha, ha." He said dryly, "I was helping Wormtail with his potions."
"Oh." She said simply sitting down again and picking up her book,
"How was the special, 'only chaser practice,'?" He said sitting down next to James,
"Fine." He said glaring scribbling on last fake dream down and standing up, "Well I better go to bed. I'll be up late tomorrow." He said smiling at Carly who grinned back.
"Wait why?" Sirius said leaning back on his chair. Carly rolled her eyes and Remus who had just walking into the common room answered,
"Carly's came tomorrow." Sirius' eyes became wide and he slammed his chairs back to all four smacking his head,
"Oh, yeah. I'm going to bed too." Carly yet again rolled her eyes, "Night Lay."
"Night Sirius, James, Remus." She said nodding her head to each.
