When all else fails, waste oxygen
The chaos that went on through the train was indescribable as new students walked the corridors in search for an empty carriage, old student made their way to different directions looking for their friends and all the owls and cats made loud noises to try and catch their owner's attention
Four boys, in their final year were watching the commotion with smiles on their faces. They were going to miss this, they knew, but they made a promise at the end of last year to go out with a BANG
And that was their intention
The Marauders always followed through with their promises. Especially if it had to do with pranking, or leaving their mark, or each other, or with fighting, or in James Potter's case, Lily Evans.
Despite the fact that the boys were the most popular boys in school, they didn't use their popularity to get to girls, Sirius Black being the exception of course
They withdrew into their usual cabin as the commotion died down and the train was beginning to move.
"So fellas. This is our last year. You know what this means?" James Potter asked joyously, brushing his hand though his brown hair making it look even more windswept than usual. His hazel eyes were glinting with mirth as his luscious lips curved into a child like smile
"That we graduate?" Remus Lupin answered sarcastically, his gray eyes watching him amusedly, his lips forming a delicious smile as well
"Naw, you dolt. That this is our last year to leave our mark" Sirius Black barked back with laughter. He shook his head in mock disappointment, his black hair ruffling at the movement, but his crystal blue eyes sparkling with delight
"And what a mark it will be huh, Padfoot?" Peter Pettigrew added to the conversation enjoying his input of the topic. He looked at his friends through his dark brown eyes, waiting their answers. James laughed loudly
"Damn right Wormtail," he encouraged his friend
"But aren't you forgetting one thing here Prongsie boy?" Remus asked cautiously, though his amusement still evident. James stopped laughing and looked at his friend
"And what would that be Moony?" he asked him quizzically
"You're Head Boy aren't you?" he asked briskly
"Your point?" James retaliated.
"You're Head Boy?" a feminine voice was heard. A very angry feminine voice. The boys turned around and came face to face with none other than Lily Evans herself
She stood there, at the doorway looking at them with nothing more that dislike. James' smile immediately turned into a sneer
"You got a problem with that Evans?" he snapped back, his eyes blazing
"Only if the answer is in the affirmative Potter" she hissed back. None of the others chose to interfere; anyone knew not to come between James Potter and Lily Evans when they were in a fight. Instead they chose to try and ignore them, if it was ever possible
Which it never was
"I am actually, so what's it to you?" he retorted angrily
"Oh shit no!" Lily cursed and punched the air hotly as she stamped her feet, clearly agitated
Understanding began to dawn on Remus' face and he soon began to laugh. Sirius looked at him telepathically asking his friend if he was going crazy. Remus bent over and whispered something in his ear. Sirius' eyes glinted, maliciously as he looked at Lily and then back at James. He turned to face his werewolf friend and burst out laughing hysterically
Yet they both seemed to go unnoticed by Lily and James, who were cursing (Lily) and glaring (James)
"Will you tell me what your bloody problem is, Evans?" he asked aggravated. She stopped ranting at herself and looked at him, her eyes flashing dangerously
"Except the fact that I'm Head Girl? And the fact that I have to work along side you?" she shot back, waiting a few seconds for her words to sink in. Soon enough James facial expressions changed from pure hatred to pure disbelief.
Sirius and Remus' laughter became even more uproarious
"Fuck no! That's not possible. Dumbledore wouldn't be that nutts would he?" he asked no one in particular.
Lily raised an eyebrow mockingly and took out her Head Girl badge from her pocket
"He would!" he answered himself, some sort frenzied, ruffling his hair
"You had any doubts?" she asked tapping her foot angrily on the floor. "And don't answer your own questions Potter, the level of your stupidity doesn't need to be publicly displayed" she added monotonously as she began to turn around in order to make her way out
"Afraid of the competition in that one Evans?" James smirked back. A round of 'oh's was heard from Remus and Peter whilst Sirius laughed even harder. Lily stopped just outside the door, the profile of her face displaying her irritation
"I'm not even going to answer that one due to the fact that I don't want to waste any oxygen. But rest assured, you shouldn't have any fears of competitions in that field. Now move your arse; we're expected up front for the prefect meeting" she answered dangerously and walked away
"So much for not wasting oxygen," James grumbled. He turned to his friends only to see them staring at him with amused expression
"What?" he asked the heatedly
"Nothing" came three replies
"Whatever. I gotta go. See you guys later" he muttered as he turned around to leave the compartment
"He's got it bad!" Sirius exclaimed as soon as he made sure that James was out of earshot
"And so does she" Peter squealed happily
"So bad" Remus added with a smile
"Two Galleons say that they get together by Christmas" Sirius shouted excitedly
"Valentine's Day" Remus said, giving Sirius his hand to shake, sealing the deal
"Pete?" Sirius asked his other friend
"He's going to try to kiss her by the end of the month, and they'll get together by New Years" he answered confidently after a few moments of intense thinking
"What makes you so sure?" Remus asked him curiously
"Dance Festival. Hogsmade. New year's Eve" he answered back with an evil grin forming on his lips. The others looked at him and then looked back at each other, wearing identical grins
New Year's it is
