Hey guys, although I wish I did, I do not own any rights to the HP series or any of the characters, hope you enjoy, and please leave a review, let me know any ways I can improve and what you thought about the overall story! I tried to edit this the best I could, but I apologize for any spelling/grammatical failures that I missed.
Lily tip-toed up the walk quietly, straining to see in the dim light. Silently she cursed herself for not bringing a coat. Although she was miserable and soaking wet, she had a huge smile on her face, and she glanced back to see her twin brothers, James and Remus, their identical faces lite up with the same grins and twinkling eyes as hers, walking their cocky little walks behind her. It was late, sometime after midnight, and it wasn't a very fun night to be outside. There was a cloud cover, which made it nearly impossible to see, and on top of that, it was raining. Of course, just their luck. But it was worth it. They were on their way back home from playing a prank on their teacher, Mr. Longbottom. He was their favorite teacher, but he was the only person they knew nearby that they could mess with, so he was their target, like usual. But now they were on their way home, grinning ear to ear, thinking about Mr. Longbottom's reaction to their prank. They reached their front door, and Lily reached out an slowly turned the knob to open the door. Or at least tried to, but they had forgotten to unlock the door before they had crawled out of their windows. "Remus!", Lily hissed quietly. "What!?" She stepped back and held out both arms to make her point, and he started fumbling in his pocket for something. James glanced at a watch he had gotten for his birthday a while back, then panicking, said "Hurry up! Hurry up you guys! Mum and Dad are going to be back from their muggle party any minute now!" Lily starting shaking Remus' arm. "Got it!" he said with a look of relief on his face. In his hand he had a very old looking lock-picking set. "Well, hurry up and use it!" exclaimed James. "Alright, alright, just give me a moment, this is an art, an art, you hear me!?" The next minute was spent in silence as everyone listened for the tell-tale sign of the Click! that let them know that the door was unlocked. "C'mon, c'mon, c'mom!" Lily muttered under her breath, her forehead wrinkled with worry. Click! "We're in!" Remus said with a proud look on his face. "Good job, bro" James patted him on the back, "now lets move it so we don't get in trouble!" They opened the old door slowly, so it didn't make a loud creaking noise like old doors tend to do, then shut it and hurried down the hallway to the stairs. Just then they heard a car pull into the driveway, and saw the headlights cast shadows on the walls. "Shoot!" Lily exclaimed.
To be continued...
Alright, what do you all think? Should I make another chapter, or start this over with something different? I am aware that Remus doesn't exist, and I intentionally left Albus out of this chapter. Please, please, please review! Thanks for reading!
