This is the last chapter* tear* well I like to thank Hi and JasperSaysRelax2010. Also, to the other 'reviewer' if you don't like the way I portray my characters then feel free not to read, just saying. Well hope you all love the chapter.
Time flew past and suddenly I woke up on a wonderful beautiful May Saturday afternoon. Ugh my birthday. I never really liked my birthday; usually it meant a boring party where my parents invite their friends with their annoying stuck up daughters. However, I woke up to a pile of packages on my bed. I smiled presents! I decided to carefully take of the wrapping to save. Lily bought me a Holyhead Harpies Magazine filled with posters and one of their shirts saying: "future Holyhead Harpy coming through" James bought me Holyhead Harpies charm bracelet. I could tell he ordered it from a magazine because I remember drooling over it. I loved it because the charms where bewitched to move around. Sirius bought me a necklace with a gold rose and a ruby in the middle, I stared at it for awhile, awing it, and he also got me a button that blinked 'It's My Birthday'. Remus bought me my own copy of Quidditch through the ages, and a magic novel, which was cool because I've always wanted to read one. I smiled and stacked my presents on my dresser and went to go shower.
After showering I pulled my hair into a pony tail and put on some shorts and the shirt Lily gave me, I put on James bracelet, I would have put on Sirius's necklace but it didn't match so instead I wore my pin. I took the book Remus gave me, which was call, "And Then He Gave Me a Chocolate Frog" and headed down to the common room. I thought I was going to have quiet time but I was soon surrounded by all my friends and Remus was carrying a cake. I was shocked. "Happy Birthday!" They all yelled. I laughed, "Thank you guys... I don't... I don't know what to say." Sirius got my head and dumped it on the cake. "Don't speak just eat," I picked my head up, wiped the cake off of my face and threw it at Sirius. He screamed so girly I fell down laughing. Soon we were in a big cake fight that we knew we were going to pay later. And sure enough a prefect came up to us and told us to clean it up. We laughed at the fact that we didn't even eat the cake. But the cleaning was entertaining because James put hair in Lily's hair and then asked her out. Boy can Lily tackle.
After our cake fight they took me down to the lake and there was a beautiful picnic feast. The whole time Lily kept close to me. Occasionally glaring at James and James would grin his prize winning grin back at her making her roll her eyes and look away. Other than that we all started talking about the end of term. We were all dreading it. I was dreading it I loved my new friends. We got so close this year and I'm going to miss them when we leave. I was broken out of my thoughts by Sirius's hands pulling mine. He led me to another side of the lake. He looked at me, "You're not wearing your necklace" I smiled, "It didn't match,"
"You don't like it do you?"
"What? No! It's beautiful; I'm planning on wearing it to the end of term feast"
"Promise?"
"I swear,"
Time slowly ticked by and before I knew it I entered the Great Hall on our last day. I fiddled with Sirius's necklace nervously. I walked sadly and sat down next to the James and the guys and lily and the girls. Sirius tapped me lightly, "Come Bells be excited. We are going to be 2nd years next year!" Lily rolled her eyes, "Really Black?" she said sarcastically, "And I suppose we would be 3rd years after that" "Hey Lily it's the end of term feast, please say you'll go out with me" James said, grinning all goofy. Lily glared, "No Potter I will never go out with you!" I laughed. James just smiled and looked at me, "Don't worry Cuz, she will eventually, I promise," I laughed again. I stopped when I saw Lily's face and her hand inching toward the pudding. I debated with myself then decided not to. Not to what you ask? SPLAT! Lily dumped the pudding on James, "How did I know!" I yelled while the guys howled in laughter.
"What the bloody hell was that for?"
"For being an insufferable toe-rag!"
The whole Great Hall laughed. I could see James cheeks grow pink. However he stood up and licked his lips, "Pudding tastes great!" Everyone laughed again. "Go Jamie I didn't know you can make a bad situation a good one," "My dear cousin you have much to learn," I stuck my tongue out at him. Sirius leaned next to me, "Are you sure that spell will work?" I smirked, "I've been practicing since April, and I have it down,"James smiled, "So when is it going to happen?" Suddenly all the students screamed. The food had turned into bugs, and started crawling all over the place. The teachers scrambled, trying to get rid of the bugs the guys and I just sat down and tried to control our laughter, pretending we had no idea what was going on. However I guess it didn't work because McGonagall called us all over
"What on earth were you five thinking?"
"Aww come on Minnie its funny!"
"No Mr. Potter this isn't a joke now rid the Great Hall of these insects!"
"Yes Mama" We all said I took out my wand and muttered the counter curse. We turned back to Minnie, "Now I would take points but seeing as it's the end of term, I will not be taking away points. However if you continue marauding around I will take points away, Sirius laughed, "Trust Minnie the Marauders and Bella will continue,"
"Mate that's brilliant! 'The Marauders'!"
I just shook my head. They would make up a group. Boy. I'm going to miss them.

"I got home from the funeral, everyone was bummed out. However inside I know they're smiling, we are free, free from the burden, free from the pain, free from the evil that is called..."
"I stood there looking at him cry, 'I understand if you never want to see me again?' James and Sirius laughed, 'Mate we wouldn't stop talking to you over something like this!' I bent down to Remus, 'Don't worry, know that we know we'll go through this together, hell if we have to become animals we'll do it' Sirius grinned, 'that's it!' "
