I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER (sigh if only...)
Special Someone
Hey look this one isn't a song fic. I hope you like it. By the way the reason I didn't make it earlier was because...ok no excuses...I forgot...
Marina and James spent the lunch period discussing ways that James could 'get to' Lily.
"So you think that I have a chance?" James asked uncertainly.
"I've already told you I KNOW you have a chance, and you WILL be able to SUCCESSFULLY ask Lily out." Marina growled annoyed.
"If you say so."
Marina looked at James face that was still really uncertain. "Ok time to bring in the experts."
James looked at her questionably. "Erm, what do you mean?"
Marina didn't answer she just undid the seashell necklace around her neck and held it out in front of her face. "Atreyu? You there?"
"What in the..."
"It's a shell cell." Marina explained.
"A shell...cell?"
"Yeah."
"Atreyu here." The 'shell cell' responded.
"Hey Trey, I need your help with something. Where are you, and where's Connor?" Marina said into the shell cell.
"Oh, we're both right here in the Library.I was just talking to him about someinthing...erm important."
Marina could have sworn that she heard Connor nudge Alexis in the ribs. 'Guess Trey wasn't supposed to tell me that.'
"I'll head down there right now."
Lily sat in the Library studying with Thomas beside her. He was just watching her and that kinda freaked her out, but she wasn't going to say anything to him about it.
Lily glanced at the table beside hers where Atreyu and Connor were sitting. Lily thought if she was going to escape the piercing gaze of Thomas, she would have to reach out, now.
"Hey," Lily said walking to Atreyu and Connor's table. Thomas, to Lily's dismay followed. "What are you doing?"
Atreyu turned to Lily smiling at what Connor had said, though Connor didn't seem as amused.
"Hey, Lils. You care to join us, we're waiting for Marina. She's bringing someone...special."
Lily looked at her oddly just as two someones walked up to the group. Lily turned to see Marina and her 'special' someone walking to the table in a deep conversation.
"Hey Lily, Marina, Connor...Thomas..." James said upon reaching the table.
"Hi, James." Alexis said brightly.
"Hey." Connor sighed.
"Hmn." Thomas...hummed.
"uh..." Lily stated nervously looking from James to Thomas.
"So," Marina said breaking the silence. "Who knows the muffin man." James and Thomas didn't break their gaze. Although everyone else looked at her like she was mad. "Darn, usually that works."
Lily sighed, and turned to Marina. "Why did you bring him?"
"Well, it's not like I knew that Thomas would be here. I thought it was just Trey and Connor."
"Speaking of Connor" Atreyu interrupted."He has something to tell you May."
"NO, I don't!" Connor said losing his cool, and causing the Librarian to glare and shush them.
Marina blinked. "Anyway, I need to talk to Trey, Connor, and James alone if you don't mind." She said Glaring at Thomas.
"No, no we don't mind at all. Do we Thomas?" Thomas stopped glaring and nodded, although he looked decidedly away from the others.
Atreyu and Connor stood up and followed James and Marina out of the Library.
The group arrived in the common room at about lunchtime when everyone else was in the Great Hall eating.
"So, we need to make a match." Marina said looking directly at floor.
"For who, you?" Atreyu said looking at Connor, who's reaction became hard to decipher.
"No not me, James. He really likes Lily, and we both know that Lily is only going out with this Thomas guy because she's afraid of James."
"Afraid of me?" James interrupted. "What do you mean afraid of me?"
"She's afraid because she likes you." Marina said before turning back to the others. "Like I was saying, we need to figure out how to get Lily out of this...abyss she's pushed herself into."
"Fine, but what am I doing here?" Connor interjected. "I'm not so good with the whole 'help the hero get the girl thing.' "
"I need you the most."Marina said making Connor blush a shade of crimson. "You need to show James how to say the right things, you're really good at that." This time it was Marina's turn to blush.
"Ok, then why am I here?" Atreyu asked.
"You are here to help with fashion. You live with muggles so you know how they dress. Lily will totally go for a guy who dresses like the ones where she lives."
"Yeah you're right. I think we should dress him up like one of the models in this." Atreyu said pulling out a magazine from her pocket.
"Do...you carry that with you all the time?" James asked.
Atreyu looked at them for a moment before responded. "...Maybe..."
"Ok, let's get started!" Marina smiled.
Ok this is all I have for now. What do you think. The next chapter will be called LESSON NUMBER ONE!
