Chapter 24: Stressed!!
Her O.W.L exams were getting closer and May was finding it hard to relax and keep calm. Only Lily was able to keep her calm and focused with her work. Her marks were gradually improving between Outstanding and Exceeds Expectations. She was getting the right marks for Transfiguration, Herbology, Charms and Defence Against the Dark Arts but she was struggling with her Potions mark. “Lily, I'm struggling. I need at least Exceeds Expectations to study it at N.E.W.T level and to become a Healer.”
“Relax May!” Lily pleaded with her as the two studied in the library, which was basically full with students who had exams. “You know what Madam Pomfrey said.” Watching May, who was chewing the top of her feather. “Ah! Got it!” She grinned as she wrote something on her parchment. “Right! That's me finished for the day. I'm going to spend time with my boyfriend, who I have barely seen.” She began packing her things away. “How is things with you and James?”
Lily shrugged her shoulders and looked down at her own parchment. “We've had a few arguments and I can't be bothered to argue with him again.” Shrugging her shoulders again. “I'll give it time and we'll see. You never know.” May noticed a small blush on Lily's cheeks. “Don't look at me like that May.” Laughing nervously. “Go and relax. Spend time with your boyfriend. I've heard that he's been grumbling about not seeing you enough.”
May laughed softly. “Sounds like him. See you at dinner.” Waving to Lily and moved in the direction of the door out of the library. It was true. She had not seen Sirius enough for the past few months. They mainly spent their time together during Quidditch training. She still had not told him that she thought she was pregnant. She wanted to as it involved them both. If she had been pregnant, it would have been a blow to them both. They were young and they didn't want to be burdened with a baby before they had even left school. As she walked the flights of stairs to the Gryffindor Tower, she thought about what might happen after she had left school. Sirius had already asked her to move in with him over the summer but only on a temporary basis as she was still living with her mother and James.
“Hello beautiful.” A voice sneered behind her as she walked the flights of stairs towards the seventh floor. May stopped and turned around to see Joshua Latimer striding up the stairs towards her. “You shouldn't be out here alone.”
“Well, once I get into the Common Room I will not be alone.” Rolling her eyes and turning to walk back up the stairs but Joshua rushed ahead and stopped in front of her. “Let me pass.” She glared at him and tried to side step him but he continued to block her path. “What do you want Latimer?”
“Just wanted to see you. It's my last year here. Just wondering if you wanted to get together?” his grin looked odd. A frightening odd way. “Come on May. We were good together.”
“No we weren't. I was 13 and you tried to sleep with me when I specifically told you that I didn't want to.” She glared at him and folded her arms. “You know I am with Sirius and I am very happy with him. Don't you dare even think about ruining it for your own ends. No matter what you say, I will not believe you.” Finally side stepping him. “Go back to your own Common Room.” Walking up the stairs quickly but she could hear him following her.
“Oh come off it May. I know you still like me.” Grabbing her upper arm and stopping her from walking away. “Come on. Let's give it another try.”
May faked a sigh but he seemed to believe it. “Ok but we cannot tell Sirius.” She waited for him to let go of her arm and be standing on the same step as her. “He will kill you if he finds out.”
“Ok.” Joshua nodded and smirked as he placed his hands on her shoulders. “I knew you still liked me.” He was about to kiss her when May quickly lifted her knee and made contact with his crotch. “Bitch!” He groaned as he cupped himself and fell to his knees.
May laughed. “Serves you right. I love Sirius. I would never leave him for a low-life like you.” A barked laugh came from the bottom of the staircase. “Isn't that right, baby?”
Sirius walked up the stairs, taking two at a time. “Definitely. Stay away from my girl, Latimer. She can do a lot worse than kneeing you in the balls.” Wrapping his arm around May's shoulder. “Ready?”
“Yes.” May smiled and he greeted her with a kiss. “Hi.” She smiled as the two began to walk up the stairs to the portrait of the Fat Lady. “Miss me?”
“Hi.” Kissing her again. “I always miss you.” Kissing her once again but for longer. “You get much studying done?”
“Yes. Lily has been a great help. Got some much potions done and I'm finding it easier.” She grinned widely. “So I will hopefully get that Outstanding to get onto N.E.W.T and into the Healer programme.” Smiling still as they reached the portrait of the Fat Lady who was practising her singing. It had not changed. She was still bad at it. “Fizzing Whizzbees.” May spoke the password to the Fat Lady.
The Fat Lady gave them a glare and held up her hand. “Wait!” She glared at them and then returned to her singing.
“Ugh!” Sirius groaned. “We could be here all day.” He held May closer to him. “We could keep ourselves entertained.” He gave her a sly wink and she returned his grin. The two pressed their lips together. The kiss grew and May's sighs became more exaggerated.
“Fine! Fine!” The Fat Lady shouted at them.
“Fizzing Whizzbees.” May said breathlessly.
“Fine! Go in!” She swung open and let the laughing couple into the Common Room.
“What's caused you two to turn into a pair of hyenas?” Remus asked as May and Sirius sat down on a sofa together., still laughing. “What did you do to a Slytherin?”
“Not a Slytherin but the Fat Lady.” May spoke as she finally had the breath to speak. “She was singing.”
“No change there.” Peter laughed.
May continued. “Well, she wouldn't open the portrait to Sirius and I. So Sirius and I started making out in front of her and she did not like that.” May laughed lightly. She leant against Sirius' side and Sirius had his arm slung over her shoulder. “She was not impressed.”
James glared at the pair of them. “Neither would I.”
“But wait a moment Prongs. I haven't told you the better story.” He gave a lop sided grin and held May tighter. “Something your little sister did. I'm so proud of her.”
“What?” James said in a bored tone.
“Well, I was coming back from the library and heard speak to me as I walked up here. I turned around and Joshua was there.” James gave a growl. “Wait a minute, James. You'll like this story.” Laughing lightly and began again. “He tried to get me to go out with him again but I kept telling him I was with Sirius. I pretended that I would go back out with him. He went to kiss me and I kneed him in the balls.”
James, Remus and Peter burst out laughing and congratulated May on her triumph. “Ahh May! That was class!” James grinned widely. “I am proud of you.” Laughing again. That was how it was for the rest of the evening. The Marauders and May laughing and enjoying themselves.

May's exams were drawing closer and closer and she was becoming more and more stressed. Thankfully, James, Sirius and Lily were helping her to keep calm. Lily would help her to study and Sirius and James would help her to be distracted. Once they began, she seemed to be calm as she was in a routine. Joshua did not try and pursue May again especially since the Marauders had begun to make his last year at school like hell. They had not bothered him before but when he tried to get with May. The Marauders, especially James, seems to like to prank him or jinx him wherever he went.
Joshua walked from the Ravenclaw Tower in the direction of the Great Hall. He had passed May and her best friend, Hannah. Neither of them looked at him but an idea jumped into his head. If he couldn't get to May directly, he could get to her through her best friend. He knew that Hannah and May were close. He had been told by his relatives, who were in Slytherin, to try and get May on his side so she would be easily led to the Dark Arts. If she was led into the Dark Arts and the James would do anything to keep his sister safe. Joshua smirked as he too walked to the Great Hall.

A few days later and the fifth years were in the middle of their exams. Hannah and May were sitting in the library pouring over their Potions notes, which was their next exam on Monday. “I cannot wait for this exam to be over. More than anything.” Hannah laughed as she scribbled something on her piece of parchment, which was covered in different ingredients and different Potions recipes.
“I agree. I know this exam is going to be evil.” May bit the end of her quill. “I cannot wait to relax on Friday and not have to worry until the summer holidays when we get our results. Then we will be nervous.” She laughed as she looked at her notes. “I'll be right back. Need a book.” She stood up and went in search of the much needed book, not knowing that leaving Hannah alone would be a problem.
Hannah continued working and when someone approached the table she didn't even notice. When she realised there was someone there, she thought it was May. “Did you get the book?” Looking up and seeing someone else other than May standing at the table. “Oh. It's you.” She said in a bored tone when she saw Joshua standing there. “What do you want?” Still holding her quill in her hand.
“To talk.” Joshua sat in May's seat. “I've been thinking.”
“Don't hurt yourself.” Hannah mumbled and looked back down at her notes. “What do you want, Latimer? May is not here so go away.” Scribbling on her notes and trying to ignore Joshua, who was refusing to move. “Go away!” She looked up and glared at him. “Hello Remus.” She smiled lightly and a small blush brushed her cheek.
Joshua stood up immediately. “Lupin.”
“What do you want Latimer?” Remus glared at him.
“I was just going to ask Hannah if she wanted to go to Hogsmeade when her exams are over.” Joshua looked at Hannah, who was chewing her bottom lip as she kept her gaze on Remus.
“Well, I am sorry to disappoint you but Hannah has already agreed to go to Hogsmeade with me.” Remus kept calm as he spoke and glared at Joshua. “So if you will excuse us. I have offered to help Hannah and May with their studying. So?” Stepping closer to Joshua, who seemed to step back. “Off you go.” Joshua didn't say another word and left Remus and Hannah alone. Remus waited a moment before he spoke to Hannah. “Are you okay?”
“I'm fine thank you.” Hannah smiled and laughed nervously as Remus sat in May's seat. “He would just not give up.”
“Why was he asking you out?” Remus raised an eyebrow.
“I don't know. Probably to get close to May again. You know what he is like.” Hannah laugehd nervously. “Thanks for making up the lie. Don't think I'd be able to spend a day with him.”
“Well it wasn't a lie. Well... I... I hope not.” He stuttered. “That's why I am here. I was wondering if you wanted to go to Hogsmeade with me.” Smiling slightly.
“I'd like that.” Hannah smiled gently and with a blush on her cheeks. She chewed her lower lip as she and Remus locked eyes. “I'd best get on with my studying or potions will kill me on Monday.” Laughing again. “Are you any good at potions?”
“I'm adequate.” He laughed and looked at her notes. “Not too bad. Polyjuice Potion turned up in our exams last year.” Seeing her notes on Polyjuice Potion. The two began to work together so much that they did not notice that May had returned. She waited a moment before clearing her throat. “Oh hello May.” Remus said nervously and grinned a little at Hannah before looking back at May. “Hannah asked for help.”
“Oh I see.” She nodded slowly and smiled at her best friend and brother's best friend. “Good because we're going to need it.” Sitting in the other seat. “So? Potions.” The three studied late into the evening until they were all starving.
