A/N: Hey! I don't own Harry Potter or the characters, just to let you know. Tell me if I have a spelling or grammar errors, please. And if you're looking for a good book to read, I suggest Maximum Ride by James Patterson. The first one is Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment.
Chapter 1: In Hiding
"Man that was great! Did you see his face?" Sirius laughed.
"Totally. This was even better than the time we made his pants shrink until they ripped!" James was sprawled out in a flowerbed. His sides hurt from laughing so much.
"Guys, you're going to get in so much trouble. I let you get away with a lot of stuff, but, as a prefect, I have to put an end to this. Your tricks keep getting worse and if you keep on going, you'll end up in Azkaban," Remus said.
"Why are we hiding again?" Peter asked.
"Wormtail, we're hiding because we just played the biggest prank that Hogwarts has ever seen. Naturally, the professors think this is a bad thing, and we'll be in detention for the rest of our lives. So, we hide until we can fake regret for almost blowing up Snevelis. Okay? As long as you're hidden and quiet, you'll be fine," James explained.
The four boys had tried to hide themselves, but their attempts were lousy. If you walked by, you would see a bush with glowing red flowers and Remus' robes and shoes poking out of the bottom, two black-haired boys laying in the dirt underneath plants, and a small boy sitting in the shadows of the two plants beside him.
"Lupin!" came a distant call.
"Oh, no! They're going to unmake me a prefect because of you two. Do you know how glad my parents were when they found out? I just can't tell them that I got stripped of my dignity and pride because I didn't stop you. I ca—"
"Shut up, Moony. They're coming," Sirius hissed.
Figuring that they could pass as shadows in the early night, they tried to stay still.
"Lily, you need to tell him no. Just do it. You'll feel better. Trust me." Two girls walked by. One was definitely Lily Evens. The other was her Ravenclaw friend. James resisted the regular urge to ask Lily out. She was just so wonderful….
"Look!" Peter yelled. The girls suddenly looked at the flowerbeds and spotted them instantly.
"You blew our cover, Wormtail! They almost passed us but you just had to ruin it, didn't you?" Sirius said.
"Evens, will you go out with me?" James sat up, running a hand through his hair as he did so.
"No. What are you doing?" Lily looked down at them with deep hatred. James and Sirius had the most inflated egos in the world. They thought they could do anything they wanted, jinx and hex as they pleased. Remus was such a lousy prefect that he let his friends break the rules. Never once had Lily heard him tell them off. Peter was like their little support group. He told them how amazing they were and practically worshiped them.
"Lupin!" This time they sounded even further away.
"You're hiding! Well, you won't be hidden for long. THEY'RE OVER HERE!" Lily yelled. She looked at the four boys as if expecting them to make a run for it. "Madeline, go tell them. I'll stay here."
They recognized defeat with ease. Sirius used this time to think of excuses while Remus tried to untangle himself from the bush.
James glanced at Peter, who was jumping up and down with his hand over his mouth. "Do you have to go to the bathroom or are you going to say something?"
"Look, the moon."
