Chapter 12
Old Friends, New Friends

Majhica Santose

"Hey guys," said Pence as she and Maj walked downstairs, she sat down by Remus. Maj walked over to Sirius, they kissed very briefly (not by their standards). He said, placing his hands on her hips,
"So you're not upset about what happened with Snape? I thought you'd have my head!"
"No, course not. In a way, it was kind of sweet." she answered, "You did that cause you didn't like him teasing me."
"Ya…I suppose it was sweet. I'm such a sensitive guy!" declared Sirius.
"Padfoot, don't go overboard. He could have died." answered Maj, even though everyone knew she didn't care.
"Hey look! Post's here!" said a first-year at the Hufflepuff table, later during breakfast.
"Wow, I almost never get post!" said Maj as three barn owls swooped down in front of her, "I got one from Serenity!"
"Dear Maj," Maj read aloud, "How's Britain? Things back here are good. Quidditch team's terrible though. We need our Captain back! You should come back next term. Britain can't be that nice. Ria, Kate, and I all miss you to death! I think Ricky misses you too… -wink wink- See you next term,
Later,
Serenity." Maj read the next one,
"Dear Maj,
Serenity wrote you a letter, so I figured I would too. We miss you lots! I don't have time to write much now but, come back to Brazil. Narman's Institute isn't as fun without you. Ricky really misses you lots. Hehe, I think he likes you as more than friends.
Later,
Ria"
 "You played Quidditch in Brazil?" asked James.
"That's a little selfish! Wanting you to come back to Brazil just because they miss you and suck at Quidditch!" commented Remus.
"Institute!" whispered Peter.
"Don't leave us!" mocked Pence.
"Who the bloody hell is Ricky!" said Sirius quite angrily.
"Yes I did, yes it is, yes institute, haha Pence." said Maj, replying to everyone.
"I'll repeat, who the bloody hell is Ricky!"
"He's just a guy from school." Maj said, then started reading the final letter.
"Dear Majhica,
Miss you lots, I think about you every day. Narman's isn't the same without your beauty. Sweetie, I wish I had time to write you more, but alas, I can't. Write back on this paper. Waite one day before returning this letter.
XOXOXO
-Ricky."
 "Just a guy from school, eh? Doesn't sound like it!" spat Sirius. But Maj looked much more appalled.
"Ricky, I'm not your girlfriend, so I'll thank you not to speak to me like I am." she wrote that on the paper, but then the paper wrote back!
"Okay. Will you go out with me?" it said.
"No." Maj returned simply.
"Why? Yes, this is Ricky…so come on, say yes! You know you want to!" wrote Ricky.
"No, I won't date you."
"Why not?"
"I'm taken."
"So dump him. I'm asking you out!"
"No!" Maj wrote a little more violently.
"Maj, you're saying that some British guy is more important to you than I? He's just some random guy. He can't be as smart as me; he's just some loser not worth your time, Majhica." Ricky insulted.
"Kay, Ricky, my name is James. I'll thank you not to insult people you don't know!" James wrote.
"Maj. This is RICKY. The coolest guy in school! And you're saying you like this guy? -Ria" the paper wrote back, showing an arrow towards James's words.
"No, course I don't like James." Maj replied.
"Then what's wrong? Come home and say you'll date Ricky! -Ria"
"No. I'm going to finish my year here. It's cool, and I have a boyfriend." Maj wrote.
"You said you didn't care about him! -Ricky"
"Maj, not care about Sirius? Hahaha! That's funny! -Pence."
"Maj, they're just a bunch of stupid 'wankers' -Ricky"
"DON'T YOU EVER INSULT MY FRIENDS! -Maj."
"Maj! Us or your British friends, pick one! -Ria."
"You're making me choose? -Maj"
"Yes. -Ricky."
"I choose Britain then. -Maj."
"Why! -Ricky and Ria."
"You made me choose. Goodbye. -Majhica." and she tore the paper in half.

Hellu Readers. Majhica…
Like to thank you for your reviews. Means a lot. Unless your liars…just kiddin. Pence did this once before, but I need to, also. We owe so much to LadyJaida! The Shoebox has been such an inspiration to us. After rereading the story, we realized that without knowing it, we put Shoebox material in our story. Thanks D.M.P., 'Sin of Lycaos' is awesome. I don't think we used anything from there at any time since it takes place in Harry's fourth year. But it's been such an inspiration. J.K.R. ya know she only INVENTED the marauders. And Greenday, for making the song 'Wake me up when September Ends'. That song fits this story so well. By the way, Pence made a songfic. It made me cry. URL- http/
