Chapter Four
Thoughts
A/N: Sorry this chapter took so long. Updates will be sooner but after 8/7 they will start to slow down a bit since I have debate camp then school stuff. Sorry!
So anyway, this chapter is COMPLETELY about what the various characters are feeling since this story is mainly Lily's POV.

The Library
Marcie
Oh my Merlin, what is Lily doing on top of Remus? That just looks so wrong! Why are they in the library anyway? Aren't they supposed to be in class? Oh wait, it's after lunch, okay then but that still doesn't explain what Lily and Remus are doing.
Hang on, Lily's opening her mouth, I think she's trying to explain. But why is she blabbing? I can't understand a word she's saying! Oh wait, something about Kaleen…dummies…bookshelves…ladder…falling?
That made no sense. Did Kaleen give her a blabbing potion again? Last time she did Lily got in huge trouble with Professor Langcocks. Well, I thought it was weird since Kaleen sucks at everything except for Quidditch plus she sucks the most at Potions so how in the hell did Kaleen manage to make one Anyways?
Oh, Lily has stopped talking and is now looking at me. Er, should I say something? Yes, yes, I should but what? Ask her what she's doing again? But then that will lead her to begin blabbing and ugh, I suppose I'll just forget about the whole lying on top of Remus thing.
Huh, Remus is now beginning to talk. Gosh, he is so hot, even with the gray in his hair. And he is so adorable when he's blushing. Wait, why is he blushing? Maybe I should listen to what he's saying instead of talking to myself.
Mmm, mmm, uh-huh, I see, I see, oh that makes perfect sense… ouch! That must have hurt…
Okay I think I know the whole story now. So Kaleen wanted some self-help books-oh merlin, Remus is hot!- and they went to the library to get then and Llily was going to get the book but it was too high… :yawn: lord, I am so tired. I need a nap… since I got no sleep the night before.
Why are they staring at me blankly? Oh yeah, I guess it's my turn to say something. I'll just say that I've got a massive headache and want to go rest..
…
Lily
Oh Merlin! It's Marcie and she's looking at me funny. Is it because I am lying on top of Remus? I mean, lord, it was only because I fell and Remus happened to be right underneath me., It's all Kaleen's fault! If only she was smarter and didn't need Transfiguration for Dummies, or whatever book she wanted, Marcie wouldn't be suspicious.
Wait, Marcie and Remus are looking at me funny. Oh yeah, I should probably get off Remus. Whoops… I think I accidentally stepped on his head. Sorry, Remus! Wait, he can't hear me… Oh, they are waiting for me to explain, so fine.. Here I go…
Okay I had no idea what I was talking about. I think I was blabbling. I wonder if Kaleen slipped me the potion again. Merlin, the last time she did, I was so embarrassed. Marcie is now staring at me blankly. Oh dear, I must have done a really bad job explaining. Well, talking was never one of my talents, I'm more of a, er, shouting type…Ah, Remus is taking over the role of explaining. Gosh, he can be so sweet sometimes! Mmm, he and Marcie would be so darn cute.
Why do we even need to explain to Marcie anyways? It's all Kaleen's fault. I mean, if she weren't so er, intellectually challenged, we wouldn't even be in this awkward situation. Note to self: remember to kill Kaleen when we get back, but first finish her potions essay, teach her about conjuring spells, show her the proper way to handle threstals, make her a map of the closest stars, find her a nice charms book..- wait…why am I doing everything for her! She can be so manipulative… okay, revised note to self: just kill Kaleen.
Hey, Remus stopped talking! Hmm, I wonder what Marcie will say. Huh, something about a headache. Poor her. Come to think of it, I've got one coming too! Must go find Kaleen and give her the books, then go up to my room and:yawn:" take a nice nap. Oh yeah, and kill Kaleen when I wake up.
:yawn:
Remus
Wow, this is very awkward. Let's see,Lily's on top of me and Marcie is jumping to conclusions and I realized that Kaleen's not as smart as I thought! Interesting day… and now I am having conversations inside my head. Must tell prongs and the others about this. Is it normal for you to talk to yourself? Ow, I think Lily just stepped on my head. What is she doing anyways?! Oh right, getting off me. Surprisingly, she doesn't weigh that much. Now I remember this other time when Peter fell on me and oh man, it hurted. A LOT. I reckon my abs have never been the same since.
Oh now, Marcie demanding to know what happened. I seriously don't understand her obvious anger and discomfort. It was an accident. Marcie's pretty cute when she's mad.
Hmm, maybe I should stop Lily's incessant blabbling and take over the role of awkward storyteller. I mean, there isn't really anything to talk about right?
Oh dear, I think I might have been too boring with my story, Marcie is complaining of a headache and Lily is looking sleepy. Maybe I should have jazzed it up a bit. At least Marcie seemed convinced that there wasn't anything going on with us.
Now they are gone. Ahh, time to get back to ethics of charms.
Kaleen
Ahhh, where in the hell is Transfiguration for Dummies? I NEED that book if I want to pass McGonagall's evil N.E.W.T.S. class thing. I would much rather play Quidditch, then spend a whole day in this torture chamber they call a library. I mean, can't they at least open ONE window so the beautiful sun can shine through and give a little light to this dreary place?! And what is up with the librarian? Shushing me whenever I curse about classes and teachers or the monstrously high shelves. That woman needs a boyfriend…
Merlin, why do Quidditch players have to get decent grades? It's not like we need them. I mean, say you are out in the field. All I care about is getting the effing quaffle in not the incantation to vanish a teacup!
Well, life is never fair, so I guess its back to the "serious study help for dummies' section.
The Gryffindor Common Room
Sirius
Peter is such a pig, stuffing his already pudgy face with millions of pastries, and did I mention that half of them missed his mouth? Hey, here comes James looking a little down.
He's saying that he's asked everyone and found out Lily's this ugly geeky nerd that never speaks up. HA! The hundred Galleons is so totally mine… I could buy a new set of gold chess pieces or a broomstick handling kit for the masters, or…. WHAT?! He's going to ask her out anyway! Why? Well, according to him, he can dump her after one date. Hmph! I've just reminded him that there's still the one torturous date to go through. Gah! He said that he can fake sick early on and ditch. That pathetic loser…copying my ideas for how to get out of a horrible date… now he's off to find Lily and ask her out. My only hope is that she rejects him, or that a new girl comes to Hogwarts…darn! I think I've just lost the bet, I mean, seriously (no pun intended!) what are the chances of Lily rejecting James or a new girl coming? Ha, as if that will ever happen, if it does I'll kiss Snape!
Whoa, Madeline is coming over towards me. Gosh, she's one of the few girls that I haven't dated. Wonder if she'll-
Oh Merlin, no, I am so dead…. She just told me that she heard about the bet and wanted to know if James is going to ask Lily out to get a hundred Galleons. Should I lie? I reckon I shoudn't. Girls somehow always know when you're lying.
Now she looks furious, and has just stalked off muttering something about telling Lily. Wait- this might be a good thing! She'll tell Lily and Lily will tell James off and hopefully reject him…
Life is turning out better than I expected.
Madeline
Sigh, Charms is so boring, I wonder where Marcie is? Maybe I can get her to help me, she's always been so good in all her subjects. Hmmm, but Charms has never been her strong point. I suppose I'll have to ask Lily.
Hey, is it me or did I hear Lily's name mentioned in James' and Sirius' conversation?
Hmmm, something about asking Lily out because of a bet over 100 Galleons. That's not even a lot of money. Wait what am I thinking! If James asks Lily out because of a bet and she finds out, she'll be devastated! And though I may be mean and bitchy on the outside, I am still a good person, and I don't want to see Lily get hurt. I am going to march over there and ask Sirius what's going on. He won't dare lie to me.
GRRR! THAT BLOODLY GIT! USING LILY LIKE THAT JUST FOR ONE MEASLY HUNDRED GALLEONS! OH I'LL MAKE SURE YOU WON'T WIN THAT BET JAMES HENRY POTTER IF THAT'S THE LAST THING I'LL EVER DO! YOU BET I'M GONNA TELL LILY ABOUT THIS!!!!!
A/N; no need going inside Peter's head.. it'll all be food and food and more food! Lol. So REVIEW !
And I don't mind flames, really, as long as they have constructive criticism.
XOXO
