Lily Evans and Laura Jones were sitting and talking and laughing on the floor of the Gryffindor Common room. Both thirteen years old were trying to do their Defence Against The Dark Arts homework and failing miserably because they got onto the topic of boys. Lily had a secret crush on James Potter, the leader of the Marauders, who also had a not so secret crush on Lily. Laura liked the look of someone in Ravenclaw. Their other friend, Maggie Alexanders, had a crush on a boy from Hufflepuff, but did not really want to tell them that, they knew though.
Maggie joined them after he detention with Professor Andrews, he taught Defence, and the Marauders.
"I cannot believe that they got me into detention" she groaned as she joined her friends on the floor.
"Yeah, but it was kinda your fault" said Laura.
"How, in what way, is it my fault?" asked Maggie just as the boys joined them.
Remus, Sirius and Peter sat on the couch while James sat down right next to Lily.
"What up Evans?"
"Piss of Potter"
"You laughed at the prank we pulled" said Remus, completely ignoring Lily and James.
"So? It was a very funny prank, he went through his whole lesson with multi coloured hair" said Maggie and that got Lily and Laura finally laughing.
"It was pretty funny wasn't it?" asked James. That got Lily to stop laughing.
"Hey guys, when I was in the teachers office, I found this" said Sirius and he pulled out a packet filled with dust.
Jokily, he poured it over the seven of them and they all started coughing.
"Sirius, what the hell *cough* did you just *cough* do?" asked Lily.
"I have *cough* no idea" replied Sirius.
And with a flash they were all gone.
