Makayla POV:
I woke up at the crack of dawn, as usual, and took a quick shower, using my fruit scented shampoo and body wash.
I got my stuff together and walked to breakfast, humming a new song I was working of as I went along.
I get my timetable and took some fruit and coffee for breakfast. After an hour Lily, Marlene, Alice, and the Marauders came down. Surprisingly they latter didn't bother me.
"Morning y'all" I two ginger saluted and got to my second cup of coffee.
"Uh Mak, I think your addicted to coffee!" Lily noted, causing me to wave her off and take another sip.
I felt eyes on the back of my head, causing me to turn and see all the Marauders looking at me curiously. I raised and eyebrow and look James dead in the eye, nodding my head to Lily.
He stood up and walked to Lily, everyone was waiting for yelling when he asked, "Uh hey Lily, would you like to go to Hogsmead with me?"
She turned to me and I kicked her leg, raising an eyebrow indicating our deal. "Sure" was all she responded with, causing his face to light up like a kid hearing that Christmas was coming early.
"Oh! Okay, we'll I'll meet you on Saturday at eleven, oh and wear something practical!" He waved her off and joined his friends.
Alice and Marlene looked at her, making me step up and explain, "I said she has to say yes to Potter if I say yes to the first person to ask me" they looked at me with a raised eyebrow but Lily confirmed it.
The rest of the day went without a hitch, Lily's friend Severus Snape, Lily, and I being praised because we happen to be good at potions. I'm that straight O student that gets called a nerd, but I embrace it.
I decided to skip dinner, I wasn't hungry, plus I'm fat enough sooo... anyways the common room was empty when I got there so I managed to finish most of my homework.
Why do they assign homework on the first day you may ask. O.W.L.S. Ordinary Wizard Level blah blah blah. It's a huge test at the end of the year. To put it simple. Where in fifth year, so we only have two years, plus this one so three, left.
Scary really. I have never thought about what I want to be when I leave Hogwarts. Probably a healer. I could never do a stuffy Ministry job. Yuck.
Not only that, but a rising threat of Voldemort, or 'He Who Must Not Be Named' like why have a threatening name if nobody will use it! Fear of the name only increases fear of the thing itself. Anyways he's been killing off muggles and muggleborns and it's terrifying everyone.
Anyways, I started working on a new song. I don't have too much of it actually.
What a shame- Shinedown
"Two packs of cigarettes a day
The strongest whiskey Kentucky can make
That's a recipe, to put a Vagabond on his hands and
Knees"
That's it. I wrote when I saw Black smoking during Lunch. I used Wingardium Leviosa to take it out and throw it away.
When everyone got back I ran up to my room and pretended to be asleep, I don't want questions as to why I didn't eat.
I heard footsteps of Marlene, Lily, and Alice, and I closed my eyes really quickly and evened out my breath.
"Oh, she's asleep" I heard Lily say.
"I wonder why she hasn't been going with us to meals" Alice said innocently.
"Isn't it obvious?" Marlene asked sadly, "she's trying to starve herself. Honestly I don't know why she does it, she's so pretty and almost too thin" someone whom I guess is lily sat at the foot of the bed.
"We have to keep a closer eyes on her. She hasn't been as talkative as before" that's a lie Lils. I talk too much.
"That's a lie Evans, she talks too much" a voice said my thought. That sounds like Skylar Jones. Aka Mean girls Regina in reincarnation. She beautiful too. With blonde hair thats up to her waist and baby blue eyes, slim figure except for in all the right places, and curves girls die for and boys drool for.
"Jones, leave" Marlene said, slamming the open door in Skylars face. I jumped like two feet in the air because I didn't know that was going to happen.
"What happened?" I asked, pretending to be groggy and yawn.
"Oh you missed dinner" Alice said softly. My eyes widened as I pretended to scold myself.
"Oh darn it, I was just doing some homework and I must have lost track of time" I say, pretend groaning. "Ugh okay well I'm going to read by the fire" I said, grabbing my book about werewolves and heading to the common room.
I sat in silence for a good thirty minutes before a voice scared the bejebies out of me. The voice belonging to non other then Sirius fucking Black. Yaya. Note the sarcasm.
"Werewolves?" He asked, sitting next to me, me scooting farther away obviously.
"Uh yea...don't tell me your one of those 'Oh werewolves are monsters' type people?" I asked furiously. Werewolves are people too!! "Werewolves are just people who have had something horrible happen to them. They shouldn't have their reputation destroyed because of people like Frenrir" I said hotly, glaring at nothing.
"Wow. I didn't know you hated prejudice stuff like that" he said, staring at me weirdly. Like he did earlier at dinner. Like last night dinner.
"Uh yea," I responded stupidly. I am an idiot. Please give me the prize of best response ever. "Uh well, goodnight" i practically bolted up the stairs. Like flash is slow compared to how fast I bolted to my room.
I walked in to see all the girls asleep. I quickly did my stuff, wash my face brush my teeth, and change into Pajamas. I walked to my bed which was closest to the window. The room was illuminated even though the lights where off.
The full moon.
