REVIEW
On with the story
Jen POV
I couldn't help but feel betrayed, after 2 weeks! For those 2 weeks I
was restless, and WHO wouldn't be? Knowing that your best friend that
you have known for about 14 years just didn't trust you. YOU of all
people! "I have to get them to confess it to me… but how?" I said to myself.
I decided to simply corner James and Sirius on playing a game of truth
and dare. I couldn't help but feel guilty after all they kind of had a
good reason for not telling me. Then again Remus should trust me and so
should James.
I got dressed to start looking for them. I was lucky and found them
right outside in the common room playing exploding snap. I started as
casually as I could "so… are you guys bored?" they gave a grunt so I
thought they probably meant "Duh!" I nodded and asked, "Hey why don't we play
truth or dare?" (Jeez, way to be smooth)
They grunted again until Sirius smiled evilly and whispered something
to James. I anticipated his thoughts and quickly added, "You can't dare
me to kiss anyone I would never kiss or any inappropriate things I
wouldn't do!" They gave me puppy eyes and I just rolled mine
"No and I call dibs on being first and no kissing the toilet or
something of that sort… Anyway Sirius truth or dare?" he stood and said,
"Truth." I smirked and said, "What is your deepest darkest secret?" he
looked a bit shocked but said "I snogged an ugly girl." I laughed and said,
"There has to be something bigger than that."
"Well I answered so now is my turn. Truth or dare?"
"Truth" I said in a firm voice.
"Tell me what you think about all the marauders." I raised an eyebrow
and answered as vaguely as possible, "Okay, James is my best friend, my
brother and he is very loyal. Now for you um… I think that you are…" He
cut me off, "sexy, cute, fabulous, great butt?" I made a buzzer sound
and said, "Try again. I think you are someone who always surprises me
and is never boring" he looked offended and said, "LIAR!"
Then James smirked and said, "What about Remus?" I noticed he said it
in this weird tone. I wonder what he meant by that weird tone but I let
it go.
"What about him? He is nice, smart, mature (then I smirked, teasing)
something you guys will never be! This is what most of the girls say
about him I really don't know him that much I know he is smart and nice and
easy to talk to but that is about it. You really don't need to know
what I think of Peter."
"Actually…. what do you think?" Sirius said with a little curiosity in
his voice
I rolled my eyes and said, "Well I don't trust him. I know what you are
going to say. But he gives me the creeps and he is not that bright."
James nodded understandingly and said, "Well if you just got to know him
maybe…." I didn't even bother to let him finish that sentence "James
you know me. I am stubborn, and I am normally right." He playfully acted
offended, "Hey you asked me James!"
"Fine, I give up! Your turn"
I smirked and said, "Fine, James, truth or dare?"
He hesitated and smirked, "I know what kind of dares you can think of!
So I pick dare."
I smiled innocently and said "Ok, you have to go drink water out of the
guys toilet"
He suddenly looked worried and said in hope for mercy "um truth?"
I smirked and said, "Fine, tell me your deepest and darkest secret!"
Both Sirius and James were surprised by my answer "um how about another
dare." I knew James couldn't lie to me. He looked over at Sirius who
had a clueless face. James finally answered, "Fine I kissed Amanda ONCE"
"You're bluffing, and you can't deny it!" He looked nervous and said,
"No, I'm not, ask Amanda" I told him, "You are bluffing, if Sirius knows
is not a secret" Sirius looked confused, "It is!" Then I got up and
said, "Look it up. It says a secret is a piece of information shared
between 2 people when more people know this information is no longer a
secret." (Not sure if that is true but whatever)
I couldn't believe it! Did they seriously think I was that stupid! That
is it! I am telling them I know - wait I can say it here! I thought to
myself. I took them both by the ear and said in an stern voice, "Move
it!" they were complaining the whole way but after a while they finally
shut up. Finally I came to a stop in front of the Room of Requirement.
I made a simple place to talk to them. I gestured for them to sit them
both down and said, "I KNOW!"
They looked at each other with a puzzled look on their faces.
I expected this, so I said, "Oh you know the last 2 weeks?"
(Still clueless) "You are a Stag… and you are a Dog…. peter is a rat
which I mean both ways. As for Remus he is a werewolf. Why didn't you
trust me?" I seemed to have said everything so fast…. but they seemed to
get every word I told them.
They looked shocked. Just plain and simple, I took them by surprise.
They finally manage to say something "When?" (James) "How did you find
out?" (Sirius.)
I answer quickly "well one night I was up studying and I heard voices
that belong to you guys, I thought you were going to prank someone
without me so I waited for you to come back so I could yell at you. When you
didn't come back I got worried so I looked for you everywhere. Except
for outside. I checked and I didn't see you guys so I decided to walk
for a bit when I heard a dog howl.
I thought it might be a wolf then I started to hear noises come closer
and closer until I got scared. I turned around and there was a
werewolf. That's how I got this huge scratch" I rolled up my jeans letting them
look…they looked at each other and said, "THERE was a werewolf, I
thought it was just a legend!"
I was tried of them playing stupid, "Don't think I am stupid I know is
Remus. I mean you guys would have transformed if you were the werewolf
by the time you got out of the dorms. It was late and Remus had to go
see his aunt right… at least that is what YOU told me…. While Remus said
his mother had cancer and he had to visit her THE same day as the
werewolf was out. I know not even you guys would be stupid enough to be out
while a werewolf is transforming! So you had to be an animagi right?
Simply because werewolf bites don't affect animals and then I had to
climb a tree and saw a dog and a deer." James looked conflicted for a
moment, then blurted out, "Actually a stag." I smirked, "I rest my case"
Sirius stepped on his foot, hard.
Sirius then said, "We'll do anything, just please don't say anything.
Please! I swear if you do I will personally-" I snorted, "Jeez, did you
seriously think I would do something that drastic? I was just mad you
guys didn't trust me enough. Remus is my friend too and I can help him
too. I'm also a… (You know what she is going to say right?)" James said,
"You can't say anything to Remus. You know he has to be able to tell
you" I tried to interrupt
"But I am a- you know what, you're right, but just mind telling me
there are dangers outside next time. Oh and I promise I will act like I
know nothing. Just stop talking behind my back" They agreed and we went
outside. Deep down I thought it would be weird to be around him but he
was still good old Remus.
October came sooner that I would have liked… I gave Remus a book called
"Defending Yourself from Idiotic Wizards," some weirdo wrote it but I
figured it would be useful against James and Sirius and he would also
get a good laugh out of reading it.
James gave him a weird book. It was black leather and on the cover it
said THE MARAUDERS. It was empty they probably wanted him to write their
life story or something, or maybe it was an enchanted journal. Note to
self: ask him later.
Sirius gave him a bunch of Zonko's products.
Lastly Peter gave him 5 half eaten chocolate frog boxes… not much to
say after that.
The year flew by faster than I would have imagined. In December I
started studying for the O.W.L.s with Lily and sometimes with Amanda too. Of
course every day at 5 James would come and annoy Lily until she wanted
to kill him. Just yesterday we were peacefully studying when at 5 o
clock sharp he was already standing beside lily. She tried her hardest to
ignore him but he got on her nerves so easily. He would poke her until
she snapped and yelled at him.
Things got ugly when James said "Evans, you want to kiss me. You know I
am hot." Do I really need to say what happen? Oh all I will say is oh
boy was he a dead man. Fortunately we got kicked out of the library
before Lily could do anything. She stormed of somewhere… not sure where,
just somewhere.
That same night I came back to the common room late… I had just gone
for a private walk. When I came back I saw James in a sofa looking
puzzled about something. I should be used to it, but he looked different. I
sat beside him and said, "Hey!" He jumped; I had never seen him like
this. He then said, "Oh! It's only you." I smiled and said sarcastically,
"Well hello to you too." he laughed then went back into his trance.
I jumped in front of him saying, "Earth to James?" I finally snapped
and said, "Are you even listening to me!" he snapped to attention and
said, "Did you say something?"
I laughed and said, "Okay this is not funny. Something is wrong. Are
you sick?" he just smiled and said "No, I might be sick but it's just I
think I l-l-li-lik-like Evans."
I had to smile. I had known this for years. I can't believe how blind
and thick James is at times. I said in disbelief, "I can't believe you
never knew. I knew that before I met her." He looked a bit startled, yet
he was intrigued and asked, "How?" I smirked, "I'm a girl, therfore I
know everything-so all those times of asking her out you didn't mean it"
he hesitated and said nervously "um no…." I hit him. He yelled in pain,
and complained,
"What was that for? I didn't do anything!"
I just shrugged, "For being a guy and an idiot. You know you just made
your chances worse!" He frowned, "But what can I do? How can I get her
to like me?" I had to hug him, he seemed so innocent. He pushed me and
said, "What was that for?" I smiled, "You're growing up. I've waited so
long for that… Okay well you are not exactly grown up yet but you are
in your way to being all adult-like." He laughed I told him, "You know
maybe if you stopped…"
After that I noticed he fell asleep on my shoulder. How was I getting
out of this? I went and got my broom and I took James to the closest
window to find it closed I knocked and Sirius made a huge scene and said,
"Have you come to recite your undying love for me?" I said, "Oh yes, I
can't live without you! How did you know? BLAH! BLAH! BLAH! Now put him
in bed will you? He weights a ton." That was the last I said to him
before going to sleep.
The O.W.Ls were stressful but the marauders and Lily made it all
better.
That summer I had to endure the horrible Aunt Marge who is still
without a husband. (Now I understand why). She is the kind of person who
should have a school for MANNERS!
When I was five I was forced to go until I was 13, along with James
that's partly because James and I were invited (more like forced to
attend) to dinner parties and special events and our parents decided it was
probably time for us to learn that kind of stuff so James and I really
hate Aunt Marge. My family is mostly dead so the Potters are kind of
like my real family and Aunt Marge is a Potter… I had to spend the whole
summer with Aunt Marge; it was horrible. She made me go to like 50
dinner parties and she made one that for some reason had lots and lots of
guys of my age and I felt like I was being muggle advertised or
something.
Luckily I found guys I actually knew from Hogwarts like Amos Diggory he
was nice. We talked for a long while, although most of it was spent
arguing why our house team would win. Everyone finally left, luckily I was
leaving in 2 more days and I would have to arrive early to my house
(well James house since mom had been called to an emergency in France and
dad was very busy lately).
I arrived to find they (James and Sirius) had gone to Remus's house. I
was kind of bummed, and then I remember there was a full moon tomorrow
so I understood. I had a lot more fun alone in that humongous house
considering there was a huge library there, and Mrs. Potter took me
shopping.
Amanda came to visit, we mostly talked about our summer and she said,
"YOU TALKED TO AMOS! No bloody way!" I was a bit taken back I said,
"What? Is it not possible that he talked to me or something?" she laughed,
"No it's just he is Amos and 4/6 of the female population, if not more,
already hate you cause you are such good friends with the top 3 guys
and you just became friends with the fourth."
So um REVIEW! Not that I am desperate (wait yes I am) but still reviews
are nice (very nice) and people who review are super nice (okay over
using nice but is getting your attention ANYWAY just R&R)
Next chapter is a new year in Hogwarts just so you know.
