Chapter Six

James sat on his bed, looking at the ceiling. Sirius was sitting on his bed, still looking red in the face. Remus had left the room, along with Peter, since it was almost dinner.

"I don't think she meant it," James said, after about a half an hour of silence.

Sirius looked over at him, there was no smile on his face. His eyes were only a little bit opened, making him look sort of evil.

"She meant it," Sirius muttered, "You could tell that she meant it."

James looked over at Sirius and noticed that he was now looking at the wall now. James gave a small sigh, stood up, and left the dorm room. He walked down the stairs and out of the portrait hole. He was walking down the stairs when he ran into Marie.

"Hello Jes," Marie said, "Have anice day?"

"Why did you do that?" James asked, looking at Marie.

"It's so easy," Marie said, walking away.

James watched her walk off, then continued to the Great Hall. 'What does she meanby that?' James thought, as he reached the Great Hall. Hequickly spotted Remus, Peter, Emily, and Lily. Hebegan to walk over there, when someone touched his shoulder. He turned around to see that it was Marie that had touched him. She was grinning again.

"You know," Marie said, beginning to drag James back out of the Great Hall, "I think I have something that you would like to see."

James looked back at the table to see that Emily was watching them. James looked at Marie, who was still grinning.

"Where are you taking me?" James asked, as they began to head outside.

Marie didn't answer the question. She just kept on leading James outside. James looked around, feeling that this was going to be bad. Marie lead him over to the forest and stopped. She turned around to face him with that same grin still on her face.

"This is the forest," Marie said, "Everyone goes in there. It's full of all these really nice creatures."

"Are you sure about that?" James asked, rolling his eyes.

"Positive," Marie said, finally letting go of James's arm.

"This is the fobidden forest," James said, causing Marie to frown, "Dumbledore told us all about it when we got here."

"Fine," Marie said, "I will get you one of these days."

Marie quickly walked back to the castle, leaving James looking at the forest. After about five minutes of just standing there, he headed back up to the castle himself. He went back to the Great Hall and quickly walked over to Remus, Peter, and Emily. Lily seemed to have left.

"Hi," James said as he sat down.

"What kept you?" Emily asked, not looking up from the book she was reading.

"Marie wanted me to go into the forest," James said, grabbing some food, "Told me everyone goes in there. I told her that Dumbledore told us all about the forbidden forest."

"You idiot," Emily said, looking up from her book.

"What?" James asked, getting weird looks from Remus.

"Dumbledore told everyone he was leaving," Remus said, "He stood up and said 'I'll be back in a few days' and he left right then and there. We got here almost at night. There is no way we could of talked to us."

"Oh," James said, remembering that day now very clearly.

Peter was looking at them all, his face filled with confusion.

"Why is that important?" Peter asked.

Emily, Remus, and James looked over at him as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"The only thing Marie talked about that day was about Dumbledore leaving," Emily said, then looked back at James, "Do you really think she believed a word you said to her?"

"Nope," James said, looking down at his food, "I know one thing though. I'm starving."

James began to eat his food, without bothering to look up at them. Emily rolled her eyes and went back to reading her book, while Remus and Peter ate their food too. Marie watched them from the Enterence. 'Stupid little pranks,' Marie thought, 'I'll find out what you meant by that.'

Sirius sat on his bed still, just staring at the ceiling. 'Finally,' Sirius thought, 'Some peace and quiet.' Just then the dorm room door opened and in walked Marie. She had that grin on her face again. Sirius sat up and gave a small groan.

"Haven't you had your fun already?" Sirius asked, looking at Marie with a frown.

"Not yet," Marie said, sitting at the edge of Sirius's bed, "I found out something today."

"Really?" Sirius asked, not even sounding interested.

"Yes," Marie said, "Jes told me of how she knew the forbidden forest and how Dumbledore told you guys all about it."

"Okay," Sirius said, now looking a bit worried.

"I know that's a lie," Marie said, "And you are going to tell me the truth."

"What if I don't want to?" Sirius asked folding his arms.

Marie sighed, stood up, and walked over to her bed. She took a piece of paper out of her trunk, took out her wand, and pointed it at the peice of paper. Marie looked over at Sirius, who was looking interested.

"Do you really want to see what I'll do?" Marie asked, "All you have to do it tell the truth."

"I'm sure whatever you throw at me I can handle," Sirius said, with a grin.

Marie sighed and looked at the paper. Muttering a spell, the paper burnt to a crisp. Marie put her wand away and looked back over at Sirius, who was looking a bit confused.

"Tell me," Marie said, "Or I'm going to burn you to a crisp."

"You'll be expelled," Sirius said.

"Fine," Marie said, "I'll cut off all your hair, take your ugly looking clothes and throw them out the window."

"I care how?" Sirius asked.

"I'll tell everyone you are gay," Marie said.

Sirius looked at Marie for awhile. She was still grinning. Sirius unfolded his arms, stood up, and walked over to Marie.

"You do that," Sirius said, walking passed Marie and out the door.

Marie stood there for awhile, she was now frowning. 'I can't believe she doesn't care,' Marie thought, then grinned again, 'But I'm sure that others will care. Let's see how long you can last when everyone finds out you like girls.'
