Chapter 10: House Cup

The group was now nearing the end of their first year at Hogwarts. Jordan and Sirius had managed to slip Lily and James the potion, but it had yet to begin taking effect. They did not give up hope, however. They had taken on the habit of forcing Lily and James to sit together in meals, hoping that it would speed up the potion. Unfortunately for our spunky young pair, forcing them upon each other seemed to have the exact opposite of the desired effect. Good thing nothing fazes Sirius and Jordan.

It was now the night before they had to go home. They were all sitting at the end of year feast, feeling a little let down. Slytherin was in the lead for the house cup, despite the 180 points Jordan and James had each earned Gryffindor previously, following the pink hair episode a few months back. There put out expressions changed to those of curiosity though, as Dumbledore stood up with a very wide grin on his face.

"I have some last minute point to hand out, if you don't mind." Silence rang throughout the Great Hall; a pin drop could have been heard from out in the Entrance Hall. "First of all, I would like to thank some of our first years -Mister Sirius Black, Miss Jordan Savard, Mister Remus Lupin, and Mister James Potter, all from Gryffindor house- for providing our wonderful school with some much needed comic relief. I would like to award them with 50 points each for their efforts." The four beamed with pride. "Second, I would like to award Miss Lily Evans, and again Mister James Potter 100 points each for achieving the highest marks in their year." Lily's jaw dropped when she heard James' name. She glared at him as he grinned smugly. TThe stupid prat. She silently fumed as Professor Dumbledore moved onto awarding the points for the highest marks in the other years. She sighed. "And now, to award the house cup." Dumbledore said loudly. Lily's ears perked up, along with many others in the hall.

"In fourth place id Hufflepuff with 450 points. Well done Hufflepuff." Some polite applause was given for the Hufflepuffs, even though they had lost by a landslide. "In third place is Slytherin house with 600 points. Good job Slytherin. In second place is Ravenclaw with 750 points. Excellent job Ravenclaw. And finally, with an astounding 960 points is Gryffindor!" Cheers erupted from the Gryffindor table, as Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw applauded them. Slytherin glared moodily, but this didn't really bother anyone. The food appeared on the table and they settled down for their last feast of their first year of magical education.

oO0Oo

The next morning the group set off for the carriages. Thanks to Lily and James' blatant refusal to sit together.

"You know, Tiger Lily, this is getting nonsensical." Jordan said, breaking the silence.

"What?" Lily asked, confused.

Jordan sighed. "Ridiculous. I found it in your funny muggle thesaurus thingy."

"Oh. Well what exactly is getting nonsensical?" Lily asked.

"This thing between you and Mister Potter."

Lily sighed deeply. "Bella, I gave him a chance, and then I gave him another. He's all out of chances right now."

"But Tiger Lily-"

"NO Jordan. I know you 'enjoy Sirius' company', but I cannot STAND James Potter. I'm glad to be rid of him for the summer."

Jordan gave a frustrated cry, but decided against arguing with Lily, knowing there was no winning against her.

The train ride home was rather uneventful. Jordan had warned to boys to stay away if James was with them. Sirius was disappointed, but agreed it was better that way. Jordan wasn't the only one who was growing exhausted from Lily and James' constant fighting.

Lily said a quick goodbye to Jordan before she passed through the barrier into the muggle world to fin her family. A much needed holiday had just begun.

A/N: Okay so I'm really feeling weak, and won't be able to post the next chapter. I'll try to get it up as soon as possible, but it all depends on how I'm feeling. Ta at 4 now! Lils
