The moon doesn't lie (A Marauders Era Fan-fiction)

Chapter 7

Chapter 7

‘Can I get a napkin please’ I started to sing as I grabbed some food for breakfast. Macy and Emily stared at me, but I ignored them.

‘I’M THE JANITOR!’ I started to sing, a lot louder this time. Some people practically spit out their food to look at me.

‘I’m on it’ I said with this super awesome glare that that security guy had. ‘CAN I GET A NAPKIN..’ ‘Here’s a napkin’ Lily said as she sat down next to me. ‘PLEASE!!!’ I ended my song. Then I grabbed the napkin Lily was giving me and I brushed off the pumpkin juice I spilled on my sleeve.

Most of the people were ignoring me, and I couldn’t care less.

‘Okay, what the hell is going on?!’ Emily said. ‘Oh my god you say exactly the same thing as the security guy does!’ I said with a big smile.

The thing you’ve just read might not be understandable, but I can explain. Ever since I had gone to bed last night, I had the Food Court Musical in my head. That is when random people start to sing a random song about napkins, whilst nobody saw it coming. Jeez that was amazing. And, well, that was what I was singing now.

Macy started to nod and smile, and I knew she was using her “nod and smile” technique. The name was so fitting…

I then saw the guys coming in, and from the look on their faces I could see that something was wrong. ‘I’ll see you guys in History of Magic’ I told the girls, before I jumped up and practically ran over to James, Sirius and Remus. Peter probably was… Somewhere else…

‘Everything okay?’ I asked them as I inspected them carefully. ‘Yeah, everything is fine’ Remus said, but I didn’t miss the look of concern which he sent to James.

I then looked at James and what I saw I cannot describe. He looked like a mess.

His hair was even messier than normal, but then not in a good way, his eyes seemed like he didn’t get any sleep at all and he just looked grumpy all the way.

I then didn’t know anything to say anymore, since I knew that a random thing to say would be inappropriate, so I said nothing as we walked to the table and sat down.

I knew James was having a terrible bad day because he didn’t look at Lily once. He was practically sitting next to her, but he didn’t say a word, didn’t look at her and didn’t even drool!

‘Okay, what the hell is going on?’ I said, repeating the security guy. I directed my question at James, but he didn’t seem to hear me.

I frowned a bit. ‘Are you sure you’re okay James? Perhaps you should go see Madame Pomfrey…’ I said, but he cut me off. ‘Yes I am okay and no I won’t go see Madame Pomfrey! Just leave me alone, will you?’ he snapped before he stood up and walked away.

I wasn’t sure whether he was angry or something else. What I did know was that I was sort of hurt. I was just being nice. How can you be so rude to someone who is being nice? That is just like not giving an high five, which equals cutting someone’s hand off and then hitting them in the face with their own cut off hand. You just won’t do that.

‘He’s having a really bad day’ Remus tried to explain. ‘He didn’t sleep at all last night and he’s a bit grumpy now, but I bet he doesn’t mean it this way!’ Sirius said, trying to clear his best mate.

It was silent for a minute or two, before Remus got up. ‘I think I’m going to check on James’ he said, before he left me alone with Sirius.

‘So…’ he said, looking at me. ‘So…’ I replied, looking back.

Just as he wanted to say something to me, something really weird happened. And if I say really weird, than I mean really weird.

Everywhere around us piles of food started to explode. People either grabbed some food and threw it or used spells form their wands to sent food into their friends faces.

As I glared at some of them, a clot of strawberry marmalade hit me right in the chest, followed by a sandwich with ketchup. Yes, someone actually put ketchup on their sandwich. Weird, right? I mean, ketchup and not mayonnaise..

Anyways, I fell off the bench and started to scream. ‘I’VE BEEN HIT!’ I yelled as the red stuff quickly spread all across my grey jumper, robes and white shirt.

I got to my knees, gathered some food and then started to sneak around like a ninja, bombing someone once in a while.

Everything was awesome, until… ‘STOP IT!’ McGonagall yelled. Everyone froze. Everyone except from me. Since I already was in ninja mode, I sneaked to the exit. Just a few steps to go. I was almost there. One big step…

‘Young lady, stop right there!’ McGonagall said.

I let go all my ninja skills, got up and ran away as hard as I could.

Panting I stopped at the door of the History of Magic classroom. I had spent at least 10 minutes on trying to find the classroom, which meant I was terribly late now.

I started to walk around a bit, trying to make up an excuse for why I was so late, when I noticed a small window in the corner being open.

I don’t know why there is a small window coming from the corridor to the classroom, which is in the corner, but at that moment I was quite glad it was there.

I quickly walked over to it, ready to get through, when I realized it was way too high. I looked at it for a few seconds and I found out that if I would jump, my hands would be able to grab the window frame. Then I would be able to get in, since I was thin, and the window wasn’t too small.

I jumped, grabbed the window frame and started to pull myself up. This went quite well, and soon enough I was looking into the classroom.

People stared at me, some giggled, others looked surprised. The teacher, professor Binns, didn’t notice anything and continued talking about the 30st Goblin war.

I had pushed myself in until my waist, and I was just about to congratulate myself on being so smart when I realized I wasn’t going to hold this anymore. I dived forwards and with some odd summersault I landed on my two feet.

Now professor Binns did look my way.

‘Miss Benett, what are you doing in the back of the class? Sit down next to miss Evans’ he said, before he continued talking.

Wow, that ghost really is a dumbass.

I quickly rushed over to Lily’s table, which earned me a few glares of her. I first didn’t understand why, until I remembered the ketchup and marmalade all over my clothes.

With a simple cleaning spell I was food free.

‘Okay, what the hell is going on?’ Lily asked me, repeating the security guy’s line again. She was the 3rd person to say it today.

‘WAR!’ I yelled at the top of my longs. ‘Indeed miss Benett! 5 points to Gryffindor!’ professor Binns said, before he continued with his lesson. And at that moment, I felt like I was the most awesome person on earth.

A/N:

Okay, that food fight was completely random. Just as that Food Court Musical (I've added the video on the side).

I just felt like writing this xD

It's a quarter past midnight, AND I FINISHED ANOTHER CHAPTER! Oh god I had fun with this!
