Addy's POV:
Class was finally out and Lupin, Lilly and I were following James and Sirius at a more normal pace. "I guess we should go to the Library huh?" Lilly asked. "We have to do that report for Slughorn on the uses of Peweter Pellets." She said wrinkling her nose in disgust.
"I guess," I sighed. "I'll go catch the boys." Lupin and Lilly both snorted loudly. "What?" I asked.
"Sirius and James… at the library?Are you high?" Lupin asked me. I glared at him.
"No, and I resent the implication. You guys go ahead, I'll get them there." I smirked and ran off after the two boys who I could still hear screaming.
"But Addy! You don't know where the Library is!" I could hear Lilly calling behind me, but I was too far gone to reply. I wove in and out of people until seeing the backs of James and Sirius who were skipping down the hall. I took a running start and jumped onto Sirius's back. It was a long jump. I clamped my hands around his neck and wrapped my legs around his waist.
"AH JAMES!! THERE'S SOMETHING ON ME!!! GET IT OFF!!! GET IT OFF!!!" He screeched and ran around in circles, drawing everyone's attention.
"Sheesh you big baby! Its me." I said and he looked up at me.
"Addy hun, don't take this offensively, but why are you on my back?"
"Because your just Oh So Comfy." I said laughing. "C'mon now! To the library." I spurred his sides with my shoes but he didn't move.
"JAAAMES!! I think Addy's lost her mind! She thinks were going to the library." He said Library like it was a curse word. James just doubled over in laughter.
"G-good one Addy." He laughed. I pouted and they both realized I was serious.
"B-but." I whimpered, "I have to do a report, and I don't know how to get there. Who's going to take me if you don't" I asked, fake tears glistening in my eyes.
"Uh… Addy hun, if you asked. I bet you any male in the school would show you." I broke my acting for a second to slap Sirius on the head.
"But I want you to take me!" I whined.
"But Addy!" He groaned.
"But SIRIE!!!" I screamed.
"Fine…" Sirius grumbled.
"SIRIUS!!" James said astonished. "You're going to the library? To read books? And do… homework?" He seemed disgusted.
"Hey… you don't have the monkey sitting on you. She'd probably choke me to death if I didn't take her."
"Well… if you're going, I might as well too. Plus Evans will be there." He said.
"Ok. Lets go monkey." Sirius said turning 180 degrees and running through the crowd. I held onto him for dear life. I turned and saw James close behind. Soon we reached the big oak doors that lead to the library. We walked into the book covered room and Sirius seemed honestly curious.
"Is this the first time you've been in here?" I asked him
"Well, it's the first time I've been in this far." He looked around until he spotted Lupin and Lilly sitting at a table noses already in books. I was still on his back and the Librarian, whose name I didn't know came over to him.
"Mr. Black, unless your friend is incapable of walking I request you put her down." He sighed and let go of my legs. I released my hold, and was forced to walk over to Lilly. I sat down next to her and pulled over one of the books. She looked up in astonishment as Sirius and James walked over and pulled up chairs. James smirked, and Sirius sat on his chair backwards, flipping his hair back. I saw several younger kids looking at our table in astonishment as well.
"What've you got Lil?" I asked and she pointed out in a book exactly where it said what a Peweter Pellet was capable of. It was rather gruesome. It was used to clean out the digestive tract, if a poison was ingested. But if taken with trinkle root, it could eat out your organs. "Ew." I mumbled and started my paper. I handed the book to Sirius who gave me an exasperated look and did the same. I smirked. James though, refused to read the book and just sat staring at Lilly.
"Potter!" she finally said. "Unless I've got something on my face I suggest you look somewhere else." She glared up evilly.
"You do have something on your face silly." She rubbed her face.
"What?" She asked trying to feel around for it.
"Your nose. Your very cute, perfect nose." James sighed. Lilly blushed so red her face matched her hair and Lupin, Sirius, and I all started laughing so hard no sound come out. James blushed bright red and immediately excused himself as if he hadn't meant to say that. Sirius who had finished his potions homework left with him, still laughing.
"Oh man Lilly." I giggled. "He is so in love with you." She just stuck her tongue out at me and went back to her book. "Hey Lupin?" I asked. "Dumbledore gave me this slip to go in the Restricted Section. How do I get back there?" He gestured for me to follow him.
"C'mon. We've got to go talk to Madame Tredway." I followed him to the graying women who sat behind the desk. "Madame Tredway?" He asked and she looked up from her book catalog.
"How can I help you Mr. Lupin?" She asked.
"This is our transfer student, Adleena Eldridge, she has a note from Professor Dumbledore allowing her into the restricted section." I showed her the slip. She nodded and threw it into the trash.
"Come right with me." She walked over to a rusty old door and unlocked the latch that was connected to it. "Go right ahead dear." Lupin and I walked into the gloomy section of the library.
"What exactly are you looking for?" He asked.
"Dumbledore's going to start teaching me how to become an Animagous, and he asked me to read up on it." Lupin's face was a mask of shock as he studied my face.
"Animagous… really?" He asked.
"Yeah. How cool is that? I've always wanted to learn how to do it but I never imagined he would let me." I started through the books.
"Well, that's uhm. Exciting. I've got to go study."
"Sure! Thanks Remy!" I studied the back of his head as he practically ran out of the Restricted Section and ran for the door to the hallway. I found the section with books on Animagous' and picked a few out. I went back to the table. "What was up with Remy?" I asked.
"Remy? I like that. I dunno. He just high-tailed it outta here. Probably went to find James and Sirius. Are you ready to head back to the Common Room?" she asked.
"Yeah. Lets go." I gathered my stuff and left the Library.
