Review Responses:
thelittlepurplepuffball: I know. I hate guy characters like that, but it gets funny in this chapter because of that. This story is supposed to be interesting and funny at the same time. I ship Scay all the way! Thank you!
Choc0 Chipz: Yes, Scott can be really stupid sometimes. I ship Scay all the way! I'm glad that you're alive. I would be really sad if you died because I didn't update soon enough. Then I wouldn't have a completely loyal reviewer.
Nekogurl888: I love how Scott is like that also. He's clever, but he's oblivious. I see your point, but May was sort of hinting it out. I'm glad you like it. Scay, all the way!
So that's it for reviews. Hope you enjoy Chapter 14!
Chapter 14
A few days later, I finally get a letter from Gary and Erin. I'm eating breakfast then a familiar owl drops a letter on my lap. It's Dusty, Gary's owl.
I rip the envelope open and start to read.
Scott!!!
We miss you, buddy! We almost thought that you forgot about us. . . Do you like Hogwarts? Are you and Grove friends again? We can't believe that Aolise Grove's son is in your dorm! Awesome!
You won't believe what happened yesterday! You know Reid Pines? He finally asked Gia Hore out! We couldn't believe it!
All the teachers miss you, Scott. They keep on asking if we heard from you and that stuff.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Scott, we really miss you!
Write back,
Erin Brookman and Gary Daniels
Aw, I miss those guys! Reid Pines and Gia Hore? Classic Gary, still gossiping. I pet the owl for a moment and give him a little bit of water before he flies away.
"Who'd you get a letter from, Scott?" Alice asks me while she butters her sandwich.
Lately, I've been sitting with the F5 girls, Evans, Alice, Doe, and Mary. We've become friendly around each other. I didn't really have anyone to sit with, because Kevin still hated me, Sirius still hated me, James still hated me. . . and it was just awkward around Remus and Peter. So F5 girls it is!
And Evans was done. No more mean seventh-years.
"It's a letter from my Ilvermorny friends," I reply.
"Cool," Doe says.
"Awesome!" Mary says, taking the letter out of my hands. "Ooh, who's Reid Pines and Gia Hore?"
I snatch the letter away from her. "Not important."
"Erin Brookman and Gary Daniels?" Alice asks, smiling. "Americans have weird
"No, the Britts do," I tell her. "Alice Fortescue? I mean, come on!"
Alice smiles again.
I look at Evans. "I know that flowers don't speak, but you're being rather quiet today, Lily."
Get it? Because a lily is a flower?! I smile. I never called Lily by her first name until then. I'd have to get used to it. Lily.
Lily notices my change of words and smiles. "What happened to Evans?"
"Lily is more fun to say," I tease. "Li-ly, li-ly!"
Everyone laughs. "I'm so excited for the Black Lake Ball!" Alice says changing the subject. "Does anybody have dates yet?"
Mary nods. "Shay asked me yesterday. He's so sweet!"
"Aw!" Lily cooes. "Potter asked me two days ago but I said no. He's such an arrogant toerag!"
"So you don't a date yet?" Alice asks.
"Wait, I didn't finish! Guess who I saw right before breakfast!"
"Who?" Doe, Alice, and Mary squeal in unison.
"Caleb Grimsby!" she says, clearly excited. "He said that he wanted to meet up with me before dinner! I think that he wants ask me out!"
They all squeal.
"Who's Caleb Grimsby?" I ask.
Mary is grinning like crazy. "He's a Ravenclaw prefect that's perfect for Lily. He's in our year."
"Never heard of him," I reply. He must be May's partner.
"Whatever," Doe says. "I have a date."
"With who?" Mary squeals.
"It'll be a surprise," Doe promises. "You'll see."
Alice sighs. "So I'm the only one without a date. What about you, Scott?"
"I didn't ask anyone yet. I was talking about it with May a few days ago. She asked me if I had a date."
Alice and Lily gasp. Mary spits out the water she's drinking. "What?!" they all shriek.
"Gross," Doe grumbles. She pushes her plate away from her.
"What?" I ask.
"What did you tell her?!" Mary asks, eyes wide.
"You guys look ready to kill me," I mutter. "I told her that I didn't ask anyone because I have no clue who to ask."
Their jaws drop. "And then what?!" Alice asks.
"Then I asked if I would be a total loser if I went alone! Why do you look so freaked out?!"
"What did she say?" Doe demands.
"She said yes, then I said, 'Nice talking to you,' and left."
"SCOTT!" Mary shouts, slapping her palm against her forehead.
"What?!" I ask, tired of their games.
"You can't do that to her!" Lily explains. "If someone asks you if you have a date it means that she want you to ask her out! I can't believe you did that!"
I look at May, who's at the Ravenclaw table talking to one of her friends. "Ohhhh. That would make sense. . ." That's why she was acting weird.
Doe looks at me like I'm an idiot. "Scott, you're such an idiot."
Go figure. "Wait," I say. "Alice asked me if I had a date. Does that mean that she wants me to ask her out?"
Everyone looks at Alice. She's blushing. "Scott, you're my friend. Nothing more than that!"
I smirk. "Alice, you friend zoned me?"
She smiles. "What, were you going to ask me out?"
"I was only messing with you. What should I do now?"
"Go find May!" Doe says, pushing me away from the table. "Ask her out!"
"Seriously—"
"Go!" Mary commands.
"I'm going, I'm going. . ."
I head over to the Ravenclaw table to find May. She's not sitting where she was before. . . "Scott?" May asks from behind me.
I jump. "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!"
She giggles. "What are you up to at the Ravenclaw table?" she asks. "Need help finding someone?"
"I already did, thank you very much. May, can I talk to you for a moment?"
She twists a lock of hair with her finger. "Um, okay."
"Great. Can we go somewhere more private?"
Everyone starts getting up from the tables. Shoot. Class is starting.
"Um, I should probably. . ." May starts.
"Get going? Yeah, me too. Want to meet in front of the Qudditch Pitch at five?"
She's blushing. "Uh, yeah. Sure!"
"Great! See you then." I walk back to the F5 girls.
"So?!" Mary asks.
"I'm meeting her at the Quidditch Pitch at five."
They all looked at each other. Then they started squealing. We all high five and walk to class together. I could get used to these girls. . .
A/n: I know, it's short :(. Hope you're excited for five o' clock at the Quidditch Pitch, because I sure am! XD
