Padfoot and The Mermaid

Chapter Three ~ Her Name is Jolene

(y/n) was determined to find Remus, she needed to be reassured that her secret was safe. She was well on her way to finding the boy when she crashed into someone. (y/n) was taken aback by the collision not because she'd been hit but because she hadn't seen it coming.

"I'm so sorry." (y/n) mumbled, she looked down and noticed the girls luscious golden hair and green eyes.

"Oh it's fine, i'm sorry I didn't see you, you're like 5'9." The girl said, she seemed nearly jealous of (y/n)'s height, the other girl was much shorter than her.

"5' 8.5", and i'm wearing shoes." (y/n) muttered, she examined the other girl, and she quickly noticed something shiny hanging off of her schoolbag. "Is that a Pink Floyd pin?" (y/n) asked, her voice filled with excitement. There were several pins scattered across the surface of the bag, they were the muggle sort of course.

"Yup, I'm a muggle born, so I know all about rock and roll." The girl said, she quickly introduced herself as Jolene Lomadieu.

"You've got to meet my friend Sirius, him and I could rave about dark side of the moon for hours." (y/n) beamed, Lily on the other hand only fancied the Stones, surprisingly, and every once in a while a little Hendrix.

"I'll have to meet this Sirius then." Jolene said sternly, by now (y/n) had noticed the blue and silver crest on the girls robes, she was a Ravenclaw, of course she had to be Ravenclaw. (in terms of not being in the same house not the morale of the house)

"Great, I'll see you around." 

(y/n) had been greatly distracted by the marvelous Jolene, causing her to forget about her well needed chat with Remus. Instead the girl pressed onward to her first class of the day, she didn't look forward to starting the day off with History of Magic. The class was so much of a bore the previous year that she'd earned herself five detentions due to sleeping in class. (y/n) was pleased to find familiar faces inside the classroom, there were the Marauders and Lily of course, and to her surprise, Jolene was also in the class. 

Lily sat alone behind the famous four, which was a wise decision on her behalf, (y/n) sat beside her friend, and she turned to face Jolene, who was also alone. She waved her over and mouthed the words 'come here'. Jolene scurried over and sat beside (y/n).

"Lily, meet Jolene." The girl began, Lily smiled and waved.

"Jolene's a prefect, i've seen her around." Lily smiled, Jolene nodded in agreement, this was exactly what (y/n) needed, now she could skip the awkward introduction stage.

"This class will run a little more smoothly now that i've got some company." Jolene teased, she watched as the drowsy old professor entered the class, his feet dragged and his shoulders hunched as he reached his high podium.

"You can say that again." Lily said with a smile, (y/n) nodded in agreement.

"Plus we've got them to entertain us." (y/n) noted, she pointed to the group of boys who were making an awful lot of noise in the front of the class.

...

(y/n) was quick to find out that the Marauders, Lily and Jolene were in several of her classes, with the exception of double potions being strictly with Sirius and Jolene, Ancient Runes with Sirius and Remus, and Arithmetic, which was just Lily and herself. 

It was now time for the quidditch tryouts. It was hardly worth showing up for, given the fact that (y/n) had been on the team for four years now, and a starter for three. Ever since James saw her on a broomstick he knew that he needed the girl on his team. That's partially how (y/n) got so close with the boys, before all of that she really only spoke with Remus. Now she'd been engulfed in their pheromones and obscene behavior for four long years, and she didn't regret a single moment.
