A/N: Yet another Marauders oneshot! I hope to post a longer story about them, and Evans, but don't count on that any time soon! This time we have the boys in their seventh year, looking back on their time spent at Hogwarts. Sorry about the crappy title. This fic started out as just the discussion about their fears, but I added to it, so the title doesn't really fit anymore. But, I thought of the title when I first started the fic, and I liked it then, so I decided to stick with it. Hope you like it anyway, sorry it's so short!
Disclaimer: I still don't own the Marauders. If I did... James and Sirius would be alive, Wormtail would be dead, and Remus... well, let's just say there wouldn't be any more thoughts of Sirius/Remus out there.
First Year Fears
It was late, but Remus, James, and Sirius lay awake in their beds. "Seventh year already," breathed Remus. "I can't believe it went by so quickly!"
"I know!" agreed James. "It seems like yesterday I was walking though those doors for the first time." He quietly reminisced for a few seconds, then continued, "I remember being really scared at just how big the Great Hall was. Were you guys scared back then?"
Sirius laughed. "Bloody hell, I walked through those doors scared to death I would get hexed by my good-for-nothing cousins!"
Remus smiled. "I think all first years are scared of something."
"What about you?" asked James, only half-joking.
"Me? I was terrified someone would find out about my 'furry little problem'," he said with a laugh.
Sirius grinned. "Hate to break it to you, mate, but you're still paranoid about that."
"Ok, seriously," Remus said, earning an annoyed snort from Sirius's bed, which he ignored, "I was really worried that I wouldn't make any friends."
"Glad we proved you wrong," James smiled.
"Yeah, glad you did," agreed Remus.
Sirius sighed contentedly. "Yep, all my cousins have graduated, I don't have to go home anymore, and Andromeda's engaged to Ted Tonks!" he said happily.
Remus yawned. "It's been fun," he said.
"Yeah!" James and Sirius agreed enthusiastically. "I bet the Marauders are the best pranksters in Hogwarts history!" laughed James.
Remus shook his head in mock-annoyance. "Honestly, you think you guys could have behaved a little more? You probably hold the record for most detentions earned!"
"Speaking of which, Padfoot and I have detention with McGonagall tomorrow."
"Prongs," groaned Remus. He rolled his eyes, but he was laughing. "Do I even want to know what you guys did?"
Sirius grinned again. "Let's just say it involved Snivelly, and Prongs is lucky Evans wasn't around. I still can't believe she agreed to go out with you. You sure you didn't slip her a love potion?"
James was apparently offended by this. "Of course not! It was obvious that she would have to agree sometime."
"Sure mate, obvious," Remus said sarcastically. James threw a pillow at him, resulting in a yelp.
"Could you guys keep it down? I'm tired," Peter moaned.
"Jeez Wormtail, you sound like Moony before the full moon," whispered Sirius.
"Hey!" hissed Remus.
The conversation continued in this manner until one by one, the boys fell asleep laughing.
