6. In Which Things Go From Okay To Bad

Chapter Six: In Which Things Go From Okay To Bad

Johanna: Hai. I know this chapter is kinda weird, and the vampire thing didn't serve any purpose whatsoever, but at least one part will be relevant later. You'll see why, definitely.

RandomFandom: Yeah, one part will come up in Chapter Ten.

Johanna: Hey, you didn't have to interrupt me, I was gonna say that!

RandomFandom: Yeah well, I said it first.

Johanna: *glares* The sentence-interrupting jerk over there doesn't own Harry Potter or Cats. Bai.

Okay. You know how I warned you last chapter that things might get boring?

Well, in this chapter, things might get ugly.

First of all, we started practicing dancing. Of course that went extremely well. I think Liz took the most hits from that particular aspect of actressdom. She had to bend so unnaturally that at one point Straw decided that doing a spell to make the bones in one of her legs go away would be a good idea (I heard Madam Pomfrey screaming at him after rehearsal through Liz's Skelegro-induced moans of pain). I swear, that guy was Lockhart on Polyjuice.

At the end of our song, Fred had to grab me around the waist from behind, and we would do this joined-together cartwheel. It was very, very, very hard. We went careening off the stage several times. The worst part was, we got in trouble because of it. Stupid Straw.

Another thing was, Charli and Amanda (remember her? Charli's only Slytherin friend?) had a huge row because Amanda's slimy friends were making fun of Charli, and Amanda just laughed along. They weren't speaking, and it was taking its toll on Charli. The normally tough-as-nails, icy-cool girl seemed on the verge of tears 24/7. She almost never cries, except for when somebody dies or something like that. From what I'd heard, Amanda might have even called Charli a you-know-what. Lucky for them, it didn't turn out like—SPOILER ALERT!—Snape and my mother.

Lilah Mitchells and her cronies weren't of any help. "So," she sneered. "Your girlfriend broke up with you, eh?"

"Leave her alone!" Fred and I yelled in unison. We knew something was seriously wrong then. The only times we'd ever tried defending Charli, both we and the person who'd insulted her would get beaten up, demonstrating that she was perfectly capable of defending herself. But this time, she just glared at us from her corner of the stage. Granted, her death glares were better than mine, but just a glare? From Charli? Not even a sarcastic comment?

"Oooooooh, does widdle-biddle bay-bay DuCrall need help fwum da Gwyffindors?" crooned Lilah in a manner that I would many years later compare to Bellatrix Lestrange. Well, at least that got a rise out of Charli. I guess acting takes away her cool, for whatever reason. Either way, Fred and I were very, very relieved.

That is, until the vampire incident.

Oh, I know what you're thinking—there wasn't actually a vampire involved. Everyone just thought there was.

Let me explain: Lilah was a sworn enemy of Bella Hakowitz and Hailey Bubble. So, she decided to tell people that Bella was a vampire. What did this have to do with us, you ask? Well, we (Fred, Charli and I) just rolled our eyes and scoffed at this. Lilah rounded on us and "revealed" that we were vampires too. We protested that that didn't make any sense, but somehow everyone believed Lilah.

So, in short, our lives basically sucked. But hey, we lived through it. One of the weird things about us is, we thrive on bad situations.

When times were at their worst, we were at our best.

You're probably wondering what the Hufflepuff George, Angelina, and Lee were up to. Well, dearest darlingest reader, they weren't exactly having the time of their lives either. Quidditch was pretty rough for them. They were being sent to the hospital wing even more than we were. I guess that's what you get for being friends with a Potter. Anyway, they were getting whacked with every single ball on the pitch. The Snitch even decided to plummet at full speed and land on top of Angelina's head. I think Charlie accidentally hit her in the face with his elbow trying to get the Snitch.

So, my point is, every single thing about all of our lives stunk like a rotten flobberworm. But I still haven't gotten to the worst part. What's the worst part, you ask?

I was starting to think I had a crush on Fred.

I know, that cliffhanger doesn't sound like much, but it'll be important, I promise.

RandomFandom: Yeah, it will. It will all be explained next chapter. You all can stop freaking out. Sheesh.

Johanna: *eyes RandomFandom suspiciously* You're a freak.

RandomFandom: You're mean and a hypocrite. We both have some room for improvement. *turns to audience* Review. It'll make the mean hypocrite happy.

Johanna: Review. It'll make the freak happy.

Both: *glare*

Charli: *has been standing there awkwardly the whole time* Just review, okay?
