A/N: Ok I know it's not very long but I've been busy buying new things for school and having sleepovers tehehe! I personally think this chapter's a bit crappy but hopefully you will leave reviews and change my mind. I actually feel rather guilty because I haven't updated in a while and this chapter's so short. I rpomise I'll try and get a better chapter next time. Ok? Please review. THis chapter is basically about the relationship between Lily and Monique (aka Malcolm) because I felt that you readers didn't really know much about it. The only thing we've seen of it before this chapter is the 1st chapter and I don't think that portrays how they are with each other very well. So here it is. Please enjoy and review!
"No you're not! Is this one of James's warped pranks?" Lily yelled.
"Shut up Lily!" Monique hissed, afraid someone would hear. "I need to tell someone so I don't look have to act like a boy all the time!"
"Get lost! I'm not an idiot," Lily snapped.
"If I weren't Monique how would I know that you have a big black book full of ways to torture James?" Monique said.
"Only Monique knows about that. I'm going to kill her! She's obviously told you!" Lily said.
"No she hasn't! Only Monique would know that you were once asked in a game of truth or dare about how you really felt about James Potter and you said you've hated him ever since you set eyes on him. Then you told me, Monique, that you actually thought he was quite cute before he started fancying you," Monique looked pleased with herself as Lily was speechless. "Well this doesn't happen very often does it Lily?"
"What? How? Why?" Lily spluttered.
"Come with me and I'll explain everything!" Monique grinned. She grabbed Lily by the arm and ran out of the common room. She dragged her all the way outside and sat her down on the grass.
"Well?" Lily grinned.
"You know how James Potter was being a sexist git and saying I couldn't be on the Quidditch team?" Monique said.
"Yeah," Lily said.
"Well I thought right, I'll prove them wrong! So I went to Dumbledore and got it all sorted. I drink a potion every night making me look like a boy. And I'm on the team! I'm on the team! Nananananaaaaa!" Monique proceeded to dance around shaking her man-bum and singing like a girl.
"Monique! I mean Malcolm or whatever! Stop it!" Lily yelled. "You look like a girl."
"Good point," Monique grinned. She sat next to Lily. "God, I've been having to act like a guy for so long. You know Kiera fancies me!"
"Ohmigod! Really? What did you tell her?" Lily giggled.
"That I was gay," Monique groaned. Lily laughed, clutching her stomach. "Bugger off Lily!" Lily gasped in between laughs.
"Sorry!" she giggled.
"Yeah well I reckon you and James are meant to be," Monique said. Lily stopped laughing immediately.
"What?" she snapped.
"He only acts arrogant when you're around. He's quite friendly when you're out of sight," Monique said. Lily was silent for a moment.
"So?" Lily said, folding her arms across her chest.
"So give him a chance. I bet if you went in disguise as a guy and hung out with him you'd start fancying him," Monique said.
"Whatever?" Lily sighed.
"You're so stubborn," Monique said.
"Yeah, about as stubborn as you are," Lily grinned. Monique grinned too, glad to have her friend back. Monique sat next to Lily.
"I should be so lucky! Lucky! Lucky! Lucky!" Monique sang. Lily smiled to herself and then there was a silence. It wasn't an awkward one. Monique and Lily would often sit together in silence for hours. Because their friendship was so strong it didn't need words.
