The Mystery's of Sky (Marauder's Fanfic)

Chapter 2

Chapter 2: So Close

Skylar woke up the next morning with a headache from the lack of sleep she had --- but also found herself sleeping on her book using it like a pillow, drool going down her cheek from her slumber, and her hair all messy --- she was truely a mess.

"Hey, sleepyhead." Said a voice of Alice Fortescue, a girl who was best friend with Lily, Alice had short blonde hair, brown eyes, and her smile showed her dimples perfectly --- no wonder why Frank loved her.

"Hey..." Mumbled Skylar sitting up and wiping her mouth and cheek from the drool and yawned, "how late did I stay up?"

"Until three in the morning," Alice told her sitting at the edge of her bed helping Skylar put her notes into a nice pile and put them in a drawers of her bedside table. "You're serious?" Skylar asked as she marked the place of her book and put it in a box and under her bed for safe keeping.

"No, I'm Alice." Alice joked making Skylar giggle and shake her dead, "no, I'm serious, I came in seeing you've just fallen asleep."

"You're the person I saw before I fell asleep...I thought you were Pettigrew watching my sleep." Skylar said as Alice giggled.

"Why were you staying up so late?" Alice asked her softly as Skylar sighed.

"Studies, I'm worried about my O.W.L.s"

"You'll ace this, Skylar, you're the smartest girl I ever know, maybe up to Lily standers." Alice told Skylar as Skylar smiled softly.

"Thanks, Alice." Skylar smiled, happy Alice isn't making fun of her for being a study freak.

"No problem, Sky," Alice told her as she smiled and left the room for Skylar to change into her uniform.

......( <3 ).....

Skylar studied in the halls since the O.W.L.s were so close --- in her books, at least. It was 25 days until Christmas, which meant it'd be more hard to study, then there wasa few more months to go before the big exam came and Skylar had so much homework to do, she was afraid her life would be just of study then of practice.

Skylar blew a piece of her long brown hair out of her face and sighed as she continued to read until she heard a gasp and scream of "I'm sorry!" She knew it'd be her friends doing and sighed deeply, she got up, marked her spot in her book, and put it down where she was sitting and did a spell so nobody would take her book and walked towards to the student who is being bullied. Skylar walked up to find James hanging a thrid year boy by his ankles from the spell they've made up, as Sirius and Peter snigger and Remus just leaned on the wall reading not helping making Skylar sigh deeply.

"Prongs, let him down," Skylar said calmly.

They look around to see Skylar there standing there looking serious her hands on her hips, her weight shifted to the right, her head tilted a little to the side with a unexpressioned face that told The Marauders she wasn't going to play games.

"Skylar, he gave us the wrong answers!" Sirius argued as Skylar rolled her eyes.

"I don't care, Padfoot, put him down, he's just a kid." Skylar said sternly, so much attitude of McGonagall it was scary.

"But ---"

"Now, Wormtail!" Skylar snapped as a wind gushed around her for a second making Remus stare at her for a moment thinking why did the wind gush around her? Peter let the boy down as he went to fall on his head but Remus saw Skylar flick her wrist and the kid landed without a thud he stared at Skylar for a moment but she gave him a slight shook of the head with a look that said "Don't you dare" and he ran off as James and Sirius look at her --- Remus still curious to what just happened around Skylar.
