Elena waved. She was in a very happy mood, and was waving to everyone she saw in a strangely cheerful and bubbly way.

"Hi Sarah! Hi Irma! Hi Rain! Hi Ingrid! Hi Ulna! Hi Sam!" She said as passing each one.

"Hey, Sirius…" Elena said as she saw him, stopping to talk to him.

"Hrm? Oh, hey Elena…" Sirius greeted her, stopping as well. Although Elena was going out with his ex-best friend, she was his friend, as was practically every girl.

"Hey um…you're not too crushed about me going with James tomorrow, are you?" Elena knew. She knew that Sirius and James weren't friends anymore. She knew that tons of guys liked her, and Sirius was a possibility, too…she didn't want to hurt him by going out with his ex-best-friend.

Sirius shook his head solemnly and waved goodbye, just as Lily came to catch up with him. She turned her head and saw that he was previously talking to Elena.

"Hello." She said, not her usual friendly greeting she used before they (being Elena and James) started going out.

Elena smiled feebly at the two of them and slowly walked away. She shuddered. God, that was awkward.

"Elena!" a voice could be heard, one that sounded like James'.

"Yes?" she said, dreadfully looking up.

"Meet you at the common room at eleven, alright?" James said, until his gaze turned to stone.

Elena looked at where he was staring at, and she realized Sirius and Lily were still there. He hadn't said anything embarrassing…it was just the fact that four people that each disliked at least one of the others, were standing side by side.

Nope, Elena was wrong.

That was awkward.


Author's Note

Please don't shave my head off. If I added the next part, I swear it would be too long. I'm serious, this time. Really! Anyway, hopefully the next chapter will make up for this short one… By the way…look out for some foreshadowing of the plot in this one…heehee I'm so sneaky…
