I was bored.
"Was there homework due in?" Asked James as they waited outside the potions classroom.
"Of course there was." Remus said. "You should have done it."
"We had quidditch practice."
"And that's more important than homework?"
"Yes. We need to beat Slytherin in the upcoming match." Sirius answered for him.
"Well, get yourself out of this one then." Remus turned back to his book.
"Actually… This is a perfect time to try out what we were planning isn't it Padfoot?"
"This is going to go terribly." Remus groaned.
Sirius laughed. "He'll never expect it."
…
"My homework!" James cried. "My beautiful homework!" Everyone looked at him as the big black dog came bounding through. "That dog has stolen my homework!"
"What's all the commotion?" Professor Slughorn asked, coming out into the corridor.
"That dog has stolen my potions homework." James explained. The dog ran away, but not before Slughorn could glimpse the parchment in its mouth, or the fact that it was actually a dog.
"How unusual." He said. "I suppose you can have until next lesson to rewrite it. As for everyone else, homework handed in immediately, to make sure nothing like this happens."
Lily was looking at them, disbelief in her eyes as she walked into the classroom shaking her head. Sirius joined them, as they were the last to enter the classroom. "It worked then? He fell for it?"
Remus shook his, a smile on his lips. "You should have seen the look on Severus' face, never mind Slughorn."
Hey, if anyone wants me to write any other drabbles I need some inspiration, and I'm currently trying to write a book at the moment, but I'm just using these little drabbles to improve my writing and make it flow better, since with fanfiction you don't actually have to spend time introducing a character.
