This is my first fanfiction, so be kind and no flames. Im hoping that this turns out well
I still have no beta reader and well I couldn't spell to save my life.
All the characters I am writing about belong to JKR, I make no profit from this writing,
I'm just doing it to expand my imagination. Hopefully this will turn into a chapter fic...
This is RL/SB, if you don't like slash don't read
Also Wormtail may be around but that doesn't mean I have to have anybody talk to him or have him talk to anyone.
Brilliant Days
Chapter 1
The sun was just setting as the four boys snuck down the hall. The Marauders, also known as Moony Wormtail Padfoot and Prongs, were off on another rule breaking
adventure. In their sixth year at Hogwarts they had managed to break their previous years record of detentions and were off to the kitchens to celebrate. Which also
included a bottle of firewhiskey just begging to be opened after they had gorged themselves on whatever food the kitchens had to spare. It was the last week of
school and they were going stir crazy waiting for the summer holidays.
"James I'm not sure we should be celebrating the fact that we have gotten a record number of detentions this year. It isn't really something to be proud of."
"Well then Remus just pretend we are celebrating the end of term." Sirius poked him in the ribs as he spoke.
"Or the fact that next year will be the year I get Evans to go out with me!"
James smiled over his shoulder. It was no secret that James Potter was in love with one Lily Evans, it was also no secret that she couldn't stand the sight of him. But that
was a fact that James was willing to overlook. When they finally arrived at the kitchens they wasted no time in agrivating the house elves by helping themselves to whatever they
could find in the cupboards. Remus gave one particularly testy house elf and apologetic look as he and his friends picked through the cans and boxes. He was opening a drawer
to look for some silverware when he accidently brushed his hand against Sirius'. If he were to be entirely truthful he was a little attracted to his friend. However, he would
never admit it to anybody else. He muttered a "beg your pardon" before turning to look somewhere else for a spoon, barely hiding his red cheeks. They spent several hours
eating and joking around in the kitchens before the poor house elves finally convinced them to leave and let them clean up the mess. It was pitch black out as they made their
way back to the common room and upstairs to their dormitory. Sirius wasted no time diving into his trunk and pulling out the two large bottles of firewhiskey.
"Sirius how in the world did you manage this?" James asked as he set glasses down for everyone.
"My parents don't keep track of how many bottles they have in their cabinet so I just decided to nick a few for us. You don't have to say it...I am a God."
James tossed a pillow at his head and managed to peg him square on the nose. A short pillow toss ensued, which somehow roped Remus in, and who soundly beat
James and Sirius into the ground. They laughed, teased, and talked about girls and drank the firewhiskey like it was water. Remus didn't think it tasted all that pleasant but before
he knew it he was finishing his third glass and was starting to feel a bit woozy. The effect seemed to be the same for the rest of his friends, James was dancing even if there wasn't
any music, and Sirius was rambling about some girl or another. Peter had already managed to puke in the toilet and went to bed. Sirius tried to stand and tripped, falling
into Remus' lap. He smiled up at him and wrapped him into a large hug.
"Remus, ya know what? I really like you."
"Well, ya know what Sirius? I really like you too."
"Remus, ya know what else?" He leaned in close to his ear. "I don't fancy girls! I mean not that way. I know that I could have them all but I just don't want them!"
Sirius giggled and stood back up to join James dancing in a very frenzied way leaving Remus very confused and still very drunk.
