Denial is First Step to Acceptance

9. Mudbloods and OWLs

MMK GUYS. part of this chapter is, yes, a scene in the actual book, Half Blood Prince. its the scene where James used levicorpus on Severus, and they have OWLs too.

AND I WILL SAY, when i put the part where James reminds them about OWLs, and theyre like, "mm, yeah." i only did that cause: 1) i couldnt be bothered to make a scene in the chapter to show them studying in the boiling hot sun and 2) i couldnt think of anything to write to make it sound more realistic.

im not saying Sirius and Robin are Mary- and Gary-Sues, its just that the author, moi, is too lazy =="

ENJOY <3

Rest of the year passed, and now the marauders were in fifth year, except me, I was in fourth, but Dumbledore had given me permission to go take the test a year early. He had obviously noticed my absence in my own years class.

Remus told us that next year, Dumbledore was holding a Masquerade Ball. so Sirius, Remus and i were planning to get Lily and James together. And we need that long to plan it out. So, I came up with my 3 step plan:

1.            Give James a list of things to reduce is big-headedness, including telling him to reduce the amount of hexes he put on snivillus, sadly

2.            Ask Remus to suggest to Dumbledore that we find no dates (Remus was appointed prefect), and make it a blind date masquerade ball, making it easier for the three to get Limes working quickly.

3.            Send letter to Lily and James to ask on date by an anonymous. I’ll tell Lily it was from someone I couldn’t tell who, seeing as we became friends during the Christmas feast, and Sirius to James. Hopefully they fall for it. At least, Lily does.

Step one, in progress.

“James, I have an idea.” I said to James, while Remus and Sirius did as I told and said they had to talk to McGonagall.

“What about?”

“Lily”

His head spun and he said, as his hand jumped to his hair, “Where? Where’s Lily?”

“Honestly James, your hopeless.” I sighed. “Let me give you a list to do when Lily is around.”

“You’d do that?” he asked.

“Yes you dolt, remind me at the end of today. I should have it done by then.”

“Thanks”, he hugged me.

I go to the common room, fell to the floor and start writing. By the end of the day I finished.

“DONE!” I yelled and stretched Sirius came from behind and blew into my ear.

“ARRGGHH!” I screamed, and a ball of fire went from my hand and burnt a small ring in the common room.

“Whoa steady! Never know you had those powers. Wait a second, does this have to do with your secret?” Sirius said. I nodded. “forget?”he said, and I nodded again.

Sirius grinned and snatched the paper from the floor.

“Hmm. Things to do when Lily’s around.” Sirius read. “For James I presume?”

“yeah” I reply.

“one, don’t ever ruffle up your hair.
Two, decrease the amount of times you hex snivellus. Especially infront of your Lilyflower.
three, act how you normally act infront of lily. But just don’t go Lilyville in front of her
four, don’t ask her out ever, until I say you can.
five, if you break any of these rules, the consequences are bad.
It must have been hard, finding the wrong things he does and telling him without hurting his feelings.” Sirius said, repeating what I wrote and I nodded.
