Voldemort and His Death Eaters
Six years later
I woke early like I always do screaming. In my third year I told Professor Slughorn I don't get the night mares any more, it was complete bollocks I know but I felt like a coward hiding behind a potion the nightmares would always be there. Remus knew I didn't take the potion any more and no matter how hard he or any of the other Marauders tried I wasn't going back on the potion. I just steeled for a simple but effective silencing charm around my bed and then going to see Remus in his dorm or Joey and Darren.
I peeked out of the curtains surrounding my bed and saw none of my room mates were up which wasn't surprising considering it was 3am. I got out of bed tip toed out of the room and shut the door quietly as I was walking to the boys dormitories I heard quiet sobs coming from the common room. I looked down over the barrier to see Lily Evans, a girl in my brother's year, curled up on the sofa crying. I liked Lily she was nice so I went down to see what was wrong as she would have done the same for me.
"Hey, Lily" I tentatively sitting down next to her. She jumped slightly and turned to see where the voice was coming from when she saw it was me she relaxed a little. I don't blame her for being jumpy we all are lately what with the threat of You-Know-Who hanging over us and the fact that there are death eaters in the school, not surprising Slytherin, and Lily being muggle born had even more reason.
"Hey, Ev" she said
"What's wrong?" I asked
"The Death Eater they, they got to my parents" she said breaking down crying on my shoulder. I didn't know what to do so I just let her cry it out whilst rubbing her head. "They're, they're dead" she cried her tears soaking through my pyjama top.
"Shhhhh" I said still rubbing her head. She jumped up drawing her wand as the sound of feet came thumping down the stairs I turned around to see Remus, James, Sirius, Peter, Joey and Darren all standing at the foot of the stairs hands up to show they weren't going to harm us. James was the first to approach her sat on the other side of Lily engulfing her in his arms. We were all shocked, James the most, when she didn't pull away, or smack him, or hex him into next week but hey people do crazy things when they're grieving. While James was comforting Lily the others looked at me for an explanation.
"Death Eaters" I said simply and they all nodded understanding what it meant, only last week it was me and Remus in Lily's place crying over the loss of our parents. I was scared for this year to end because it meant all my older brothers would be out in the world and I would be constantly worrying about them especially since they decided to join the order of the phoenix that meant they'd be fighting the Death Eaters I don't blame them I'm fighting as soon as I'm out of here, hell I'm already fighting I kick Slytherin butt everyday.
Only two weeks into school and families were already being torn apart this was going to be a tough year no doubt about it.
Class went very slowly that day not that I paid any attention to notice my thoughts were on You-Know-Who and his followers and how may more families he had to tear apart before he would be happy. What I don't get is why he wasn't stopped when he was younger, he was obviously an evil kid why didn't he get stopped then? Or when he was first rising to power before he had all his followers it would have been easy then but no one did and now look where we are in a big ball of shit trying to fight him off.
"Ev!" Lauren said snapping her fingers in front of my face
"Yes" I asked? Tucking some of my brown hair that had fallen out of its pony tail behind my ear
"You didn't listen to a word of that did you?" she asked sighing. We were in the library doing homework and talking, it was the only place we could go to get away from Darren and Joey. Don't get me wrong I love the boys but sometime you just need some girly time.
"You were telling me how totally awesome I am" I said matter –of-factly, writing another sentence to my potions essay
"No I told you Darren asked me out" she said excitably
"Are you denying how awesome I am?" I asked in mock anger
"Ev back on track here, Darren Williams asked me Lauren Taylor out" she said as if talking to an idiot
"That's great La-La, brilliant in fact, kind of puts a happy end to a day that started crappy" I said brightly at her. She's liked Darren since fourth year and he's liked her since third, we're in out sixth now which means it's taken him three years to find his Gryffindor courage and ask her out.
"I know, we just need Joey to ask you out and life will be sweet" she said. For Ravenclaw she is very thick sometimes.
"no La-La Joey asking me out isn't going to stop You-Know-Who and his Death Eaters so life won't be sweet, it will probably be more stressful thinking that I could loose the man I love, heck it already is stressful 'cause he could die not knowing I love him. Life will never be sweet not until You-Know-Who is dead" I snapped closing my book and storming out of the library. Lauren called after me but I didn't go back, I'll finish my homework later, but right now I was going to talk to Marlene McKinnon she was the go to for all Gryffindor girls who were having boy troubles and she was also like my sister being friends with Remus.
When I found her she was talking to Lily and Mary McDonald so I went and sat with them. The seventh years knew more about what was going on in the world at the moment and the teachers were very vague on the information they gave to the younger years so I got my information from everyone else.
"Hello, Ev" Marlene said as I sat down
"Hey, Mar" I said
"Boy troubles?" she asked smiling
"Yes, how do I get Joey to ask me out" I asked her smiling. She smiled evilly at Mary as Mary passed her two gold galleons
"You're Gryffindor right?" she asked raising her eyebrows
"No I'm Hufflepuff" I said sarcastically "of course I'm fucking Gryffindor otherwise I wouldn't be sitting in the common room"
"Okay now we got that cleared up, where's your courage" she asked "ask him out, boys like confident girls and you'll find alot of them like girls to make the first move" she said
"Okay" I said taking it all to heart I'll ask him I just need a really big push
"Anything else?" Mary asked me
"Yeah, anything new going on in the world?"
"Nothing new from this morning, but I found out my sister is safe so that's a good thing" Lily said "now go ask Joey out before someone else does" she said pushing towards him. I guess that's my push.
"Hey, J-Joe" I said sitting across from him
"Hey, Ev" he said smiling at me over the top of his book
"Watch reading?" I asked
"I dunno, I found it on the table and thought it made me look smart so I decided to read it" he said guiltily
"Naw Joey I know you're not smart, no need to pretend" I said smiling and taking the book off him "Jane Eyre" I read the title to him
"Thanks" he said
"Well you said you didn't know" I said smiling at him as a piece of parchment hit me in the head. I looked around for who trough it and saw Lily smiling at me. I opened the parchment and read what Lily had written get it over and done with we're getting bored over here. I smiled slightly then looked at Joey
"So I was wondering if you would like to go to Hogsmead with me on our next visit as like a date" I said sheepishly
"I was just about to ask you the same thing" he said
"So I'm taking that as a yes"
"Yes it is a yes" he said smiling at me.
I know there is probably many grammar mistakes in here but since no one seemed to read it it doesn't matter does it?
Totallycrazy-Totallyawesome
