(A/N: Soooooooo…sorry! I didn't mean not to update for a few months! To my credit, I had finals and then was exhausted from all the studying and packing and then the holidays happened AND I haven't felt that inspired…. Well, not for this part of the story. You see, I have all these ideas for MUCH later in the story. It's a bitch. I didn't and still don't wanna half-ass this and just do the whole, "Three years later after several adventures blahblahblah…" Anyhoo, I'm updating now and I hope ya'll will review…It really helps me come up with ideas. Alllsssooo, Queen Rowling owns the HP universe! Tschuss!)
Chapter 13: Drama that Should Have Been Saved for Your Llama
The next morning, Hermione "forgot" to wake me up. (VERY mature) So I woke up when she rustled around to grab her shower things. Well, if she was going to be petty….two could play at that game. Mwahahahaha….Kayla has an idea and is thinking in the third person…
I grab my shower stuff and uniform and slipped into the shower stall next to Hermione and started singing at the top of my lungs,
How many times are you gonna try to shut me out?
I told you once, told you twice, I ain't gonna turn back around
You can say whatever, try to mess with me
I don't care, I'm not scared
You don't have to say you're sorry, save your sympathy
With a friend like you, I don't need an enemy
I would give you time if you were worth it
But guess what, you're not worth it
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, I'm always gonna be the last one standing
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, 'cause I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go, I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
The last one standing
Did you think that I would surrender easily?
Just like that, you were getting rid of me
Is that the way you saw it all go down?
I don't think, I don't think so
There's not a word you can say I haven't heard before
So give it up, give it up unless you want a little more
You think you're pretty tough, so let's throw down
It's alright, I'm alright
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, I'm always gonna be the last one standing
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, 'cause I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go, I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
I won't give up, I keep trying
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
It's not over, I keep fighting
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
I won't give up, I keep trying
(I'm always gonna be the last one standing)
It's not over, I keep fighting
I keep fighting!
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, I'm always gonna be the last one standing
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, 'cause I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go, I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing [x2]
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, the last one standing [x2]
(A/N: "Last One Standing" by Simple Plan, if you were wondering…back to the story)
Yes, I was being super dramatic. Yes, that song was a bit much for what happened. Do I care right now? The answer is one big can of nope! If she thought house points were more important than friends and that I should think so too, then she will be the target of a song attack courtesy of me!
Anyhoo, after my little performance in the shower, I got ready at the speed of light to go hang with my boys at breakfast and devour ALLL THE BACON. I skipped all the way there, because there's just some sort of thrill I get after singing whether it's for good or for evil.
By the time I reached the Gryffindor table, I had gotten many looks for being this perky in the morning especially from my yearmates. It was quite funny to me, but I can't blame them because I'm usually a zombie in the mornings. I sat down between my twin and Harry and pulled the bacon toward me, whistling cheerfully. They stared in tired disbelief.
"S'up, ya'll? That was some adventure last night, right?" I asked in my unnatural music-induced high.
"Erm…yes, yes it was." Harry said, wary of my admittedly creepy grin.
"…the bloody hell is up with you?" Ron asked with his normal tact.
"Music!" I trilled.
"What…music?" Harry asked.
"Oh, I gave our resident goody-good, snotty-snot a performance this morning! What a rush!" I exclaimed.
When they questioned that further, I explained about how I had an argument with Hermione about snitching on them and friendship. And how Hermione decided to be all petty and not even try to wake me up this morning. Leading to my shower concert of cattiness. The boys exchanged a glance, both decided it was a girl-thing that they didn't want to mix in, and we started discussing what we thought the three-headed labradoodle was guarding.
~oOo~
The next couple of months passed by with many fun occurrences. One was Harry getting his broom and then burning Malfoy with it. (I was so proud at that moment *sniffs*) Another was a memorable prank I pulled with the Elder Twins on the Slytherins involving pudding and pink bunny slippers. Classic. Classes were getting more interesting now, and soon we'd be making things fly.
The only damper was the fact that Hermione still hadn't come around. Now, before you get too confused, there's something you need to know about me: I can't hold a grudge to save my life, and my temper isn't long heated. You can't blame me for missing my only friend that's a girl. Don't get me wrong, my brother and Harry are great, but they're still boys and that means they're irritating as hell half the time. Like when they would cold-shoulder Hermione. I mean, she was a bit mixed up in her priorities but she seems to be loosening up. Even if it's at a snail's pace and damn near impossible to notice.
Annnnnyway, today is the day before my parents are coming to meet me. And I am freaking. The hell. Out! I am pale as a sheet and I can hardly eat anything. That's when you know something's wrong with me. Lack of being a human garbage-disposal. Harry and Ron were trying their hardest to make me feel better, but that just wasn't going to happen until I had met my parents and knew for sure that I'm not a disappointment to them or anything.
Tomorrow's going to be one hell of a day, that's for sure.
(A/N: Thanks for reading! Even though I don't really deserve it with my derpy updating, I would still appreciate it if ya'll would review! Thanks!)
