Thalia Patil

The First Rehersal

So, since I put Love Blossoms on hold I'm going to entirely focus on this and the novel I'm writing. I procrastinate and do the other. Like, when I'm supposed to do this I type that... and so on. I'm supposed to be typing my novel. The good thing is it's at the beginning of the second notebook. 13,000 words and 70 pages. I can't focus, ADD. :(

I have a GREAT idea for a Voldemort type thing fanfic. Part Regulus, part Voldemort, part Alblus Potter, Rose Weasley.

The first play practice for our play went badly. Very badly. Possibly the worst first rehersal in the history of WADA.

It went something like this:

First Kevin (Harry) sung the stupidest song about Harry I had ever heard and that included a lot of stupid ones. And I snapped my lines after being called Hermione. Nigel was looking miserable.

Then it was time for my part. "NIGEL!" I yelled after barely reading the first line. "What in the name of Merlin is this? 'I may be frumpy but I'm super-smart...'? 'And that's totally awesome'? This is a joke!"

"It's a comedy, Thalia. It's supposed to be funny. Let me spell it out for you, comedies ARE funny. And you have been cast as Hermione so stop snapping you lines. PAYTON, STOP LAUGHING! YOU ARE IN REHERSAL!" Nigel yelled. He was pretty annoyed. And Payton laughed a lot and he wasn't off-stage much either, playing Ron.

Nigel looked like he was about to explode when we finally got to 'I'm sick of summer and this waiting around.' we actually smiled and got into it and he sighed but after that it went bad again.

"This is stupid little dumb sister Sestiva." Payton grinned as he 'accidently' replaced Ginny with Sestiva's name.

"PAYTON!" Nigel yelled.

Sestiva looked like she was going to murder him. She actually went for her wand and if Ryan (Cedric) hadn't stopped her she would have hexed him a lot.

"Mistake!?"

"I am not cowering when he snaps!" Sestiva growled. I was pretty sure Payton didn't want to be on the same stage as her.

"THALIA, PAYTON AND SESTIVA STICK TO THE SCRIPT!"

"Tomo arigato?" Kanani and Noelle said questioningly. Not quite sure.

"And this is stupid." Noelle muttered.

"READ THE SCRIPT! I will give detentions!"

"Great, I love being above Ginny! I get to push her!"

"Detention! Happy now? You should have been Draco Malfoy so you could insult her without giving me a hard time."

Payton muttered, "she's my pain in the ass."  he snarled not having fun anymore.

"Pigfarts?" I laughed. It took a while for me to stop but Nigel was too busy glaring at Payton and Sestiva to notice.

Strangly no one mentioned the train scene.

"Is there really a swimming pool, Thalia." Kevin asked.

"In the Prefect's bathroom." I said.

Finally that long song ended and Nigel sighed with happiness that it was finally over. "Everyone to lunch except Payton and Sestiva. You have to see Mr. Stern with me so that we can arrange your detentions. And, Thalia, you were pretty close."

If Sestiva knew the curse she would have murdered both of them right there.
