Prongs, guess what?
What?
Evans apparently talks about you All. The. Time.
WHAT? Really? Who told you that? How'd you find out?
You know it might be kind of fun to just not tell you and watch you spazz out the whole day...
Oh come on Padfoot! That's not fair! You can't just bring it up and then not tell me!
Let's just say I- nah, I don't wanna tell you.
Well if that's how you're going to play it, just remember that I know the REAL reason why you went out with Annabell, and her boyfriend is not going to be happy when he finds out... especially since he was still dating her at the time!
Wow... don't be so rash Prongs! Honestly, I'm just messing with you! Why do you want to know so bad?
Because it's important! You know how I feel about her! So spit it out!
Oooh, how do you feel about her... do you luuuuuuuuuurve her? I need a confession in writing or I won't ay a thing! I shan't betray the trust of my dear long-time friend Evans without a good reason!
"Dear long time friend"? She calls you a big-headed, snobby git all the time! And forget about confession- you already know the answer, and I don't want it in writing, you gossip like an old woman!
Okay... just for that I'm never telling you Prongs!
All right, oh look there's Annabell! She looks like she's in a right bad mood! Gee it would be horrid if she heard some news that tipped her over the edge and she had to take it out on a certain black-haired boy with the last name of Black...
Ah my dear Prongs, your threats are empty! With my charm she wouldn't stand a chance. And I can take her boyfriend. It's your own fault you don't know yet Prongs... if you'd been polite form the start...
"Charm" PLEASE! You're not that amazing! Jane flat out refused to go out with you last week and you really wanted her.
Jane is in denial. And don't change the subject or I'll hex your robes to spell 'Evans is my life" again.
You can be such a jerk! I think I'll take my chances with your hex. Bring it on!
Okay, it's coming when you least expect it. Guess you'll never know this secret about Evans!
Guess not. But I found a loophole. Moony will know! I'll just ask him.
He but he swears not to tell any of her secrets- you know Moony never breaks his word! And anyway. I know for a fact that Moony doesn't know this!
Then I guess I'll live without it. But revenge is on it's way. I know how to make you sing in front of the whole class without a shred of embarrassment until afterwards.
Huh, I have a lovely voice. And you wouldn't do that to me! And besides, this is a piece of info you can't go without.
Oh FINE! I love Evans. But you knew that anyway, you just had to make me say it. Now what the hell is this super important bit of Evansknowledge that I had to have?
Wow, I'm impressed, you lasted 20 minutes. A new record. Usually you have to know about Evans "RIGHT NOW!" Okay, here's goes:
I heard Evan's talking to Marlene McKinnon the other day. She was saying that "Potter thinks he's so bloody great! I mean- I won't deny that he's okay... alright, he's sort of good-looking, but not that good! I mean, so he has amazing hazel eyes and a really distracting cheeky smile, but I don't think that gives him the right to be completely up himself!" Like it so far?
Wow! She did notice me? That's great. Is there more? Can it get better then this?
Haha, that's not even half of what's coming!
Well carry on then, don't wait for me!
Okay: she went on to say "And the way his messes up his hair is just the most ridiculous thing! That sure pissses me off! It's so annoying in class, and so distracting. It's like very second his hands shoots up to his hair Does he expect us all to loose focus or something? It's stupid!"
Marlene sounding like she was smirking said "You're doing it again."
"Doing what?"
"Talking about James non-stop!"
Soooo, she must do it a lot! I'll let you read this part before I write more.
I am pretty incredible... and the hair thing, that distracts her from schoolwork? I didn't think it was possible to do that! But I'm in her head now, I hope I can work it to my advantage.
Corny villain line much? Anyway, Lily goes "Well-he's just really annoying!" And boy did she sound embarrassed.
"Just go out with him already, you'd be so cute together. And he's loved for ever. And I'm sure you like him!"
"I don't like him."
"Last night you said he was okay when he relaxed and let his 'true colours' show through. You may as well have admitted you like him."
"I don't know Marlene." ... Whadda ya think?
Wowwowowowow! If I asked her out now do you think she'd say yes?
Yeah, I think seventh year's your year! And I'm not done yet.
Sorry, do continue.
And she said something like "Well I do know, and you should totally say yes the next time he asks you! Which we both know he'll do... And he's liked FOREVER!"
"He has sort of deflated his head a little."
"He's been working on that for ages. He did it for you, Remus told me"
WHAT? Remus told her?
Forget it... just LISTEN! Or read really...
"He wanted to prove he'd do anything for you!"
"Wow I didn't think he'd take me seriously when I told him he was big-headed and had to deflate it if he wanted any girl to take him seriously!"
"As if he wants any girl, he wants you."
"That's sort of sweet."
She Prongs... she's all turned around and liking you!
I haven't felt this happy since Gryffindor won that Quidditch match! Still can' believe Remus though...
What he said helped you though, I mean, Lily likes you now! There was more, but it was all very muffled, lower voices and all. Lily said what seemed like:
"He might be a cute boyfriend... I guess."
"Well say yes next time! Everyone will be so happy if you do."
"Maybe Marlene. Thanks for talking with me. We'd really better go to bed."
And they left the common room then so I came out of my hiding place and went upstairs, but you were asleep and I didn't have a chance to tell you until now. So, you gonna ask her?
Do you even have to ask? I've got to do it differently this time though! I've got to make it special! Less bad-boy and more honest, so she can see how I've changed.
Haha, how on earth are you going to do that?
With great effort, and also by you not being there to throw me off track! She hates it when you smirk over my shoulder!
Aww! That's not fair! I have to have some part in it! PLEASE PRONGS!
Nope, nothing you can do to convince me otherwise! Unless... nah...
WHAT? I have to be there! Matchmaking is my thing! I got Frank and Alice together didn't I?
You got them together, but they were already in love. They would have gotten there eventually! It wasn't really your matchmaking skills.
Yes it was, it takes true skill to make the realise their love! Besides James, I have the power to make or break you here! I have an idea for the perfect way to ask her out!
Not going to work this time.
And I'll wear your cloak. You won't even know I'm there! Come on, you have to let me!
Tell me the info and maybe.
I'll also let you do something stupid and take the blame, and I'll let you eat my Honeydukes choc in front of me... You can, bloody hell, you can wear my new robes you thought Evans would like! And I'll- I'll polish your broom for you! PLEASE!
Wow, you really want this!
You're my best friend and this could be the moment your dreams come true, and it could be because of me! I thought of something else, I'll do your homework! You know I'm smart when I try!
Tempting... well fine, but under the cloak and no embarrassing me, and leave if we start kissing or anything...
Ew... yes, of course! When will you did it?
You were supposed to tell me that thing, how to ask her out.
Right you are Prong old pal, here goes! Okay so you know how we all saw her sneaking out towards the Quidditch pitch with one of the schools old brooms?
Yeah...
Well she's scared of flying isn't she? So would it be just perfect if you snuck out too, and pretended you didn't expect to see her there... say you're squeezing in some extra practice. Then offer to help her learn to fly. And be really sweet and concerned looking which won't be hard because I bet you will be concerned. And then BAM you help her fly, hands on hers and guiding her every move and then, when she's doing well congratulate her and ask her out! Like it?
Yeah- it's like it was meant to be! Me teaching her to fly! AWESOME!
Haha, it is! I CAN'T WAIT! You and Lily're gonna get together, she's gonna fall jn love with you... oooh, I put dibs on best man- and Godfather! I have to be Godfather!
Haha, of course you can. I wouldn't want anyone else!
