Part One: The Plan

A brunette girl walked up the stairs, and pulled the 7th year boys dormitory door open. "Remus, Black, Pettigrew. We want to talk to you, so get you faces out of that magazine."

"I can't speak for them Mary, but I'm listening."

"Thank you Remus. The five of us have a big problem to deal with. Our closest friends can't…"

"Wait, what do you mean, 'the five of us'?"

"Well Black, if you had stopped looking at that magazine like I told you to, you would know what I meant. Also, apparently your IQ has improved, because this time I was only one sentence ahead of your brain. Congratulations." Mary walked over to Sirius and grabbed the magazine out of his hands. "I'm afraid that your magazine goes against school rules, seeing as how it has degrading pictures in it. It is my duty as a prefect to confiscate it."

"Now, back to business," Alice spoke as Sirius glared at Mary. "James clearly loves Lily, and Lily clearly thinks she hates him, but we know better. We owe it to them to find a way to get them together."

"Nor to mention ourselves," Sirius muttered.

"Sirius, am I a violent person?" Mary spoke, glaring at him.

"Yes."

"Correct. Now, if you don't let Alice talk without interrupting her, I will get you for it. Understood?"

"Yes, Mary." He spoke in a defeated voice.

"Okay, now back to what I was saying. Mary and I have created a wonderful plan to get them to go on a date. It won't involve you to much, but it does involve a sacrifice from all of us. Are you guys going to help?"

"I don't see why not. I'm in." Remus shook Mary's hand.

"Me too, especially since it will get James to talk about something other than how he wishes Lily would like him back. He's getting pathetic." Sirius stuck his hand out to shake Mary's, but she just looked at it like it had fungus.

"I will never shake hands with someone as insensitive as you."

"Well, how about doing something a little more friendly?" Sirius smiled and raised his eyebrows.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" Mary ran from the dormitory screaming.

"What about you Peter?" Alice looked at the smallest boy.

"I'll help." Peter spoke in a creepy voice with a disturbing look on his face. Alice shuddered inwardly.

"Okay, well thanks for your cooperation. See you tomorrow. Bye." Alice started heading out of the room.

"Bye Alice." Remus was the only one who spoke. Sirius and Peter had started up a game of wizard's chess.

Alice ran down the boys' dormitory stairs, across the common room, and up the stairs to the girls' dormitory until she got to the room that she shared with Mary. "Okay, so we have the first part of the plan completed. Now we need to get Lily to agree, which shouldn't be too hard, because she never turns down a dare. Let's go over now, so we can finish this sooner."

"Okay, I'll come with you." Mary rolled off of her bed and headed for the door.


Lily was sitting in her room working on her homework that was due later in the week. She looked up as she heard voices in the heads common room. By the pitch of the voices, she could tell it wasn't James or his friends. Good. How could I talk to him after what I saw him doing to Snape? Just because Snape said one mean thing to me, Potter has decided to make his life miserable. Like he has the right. Ha! She got up and went to the door of her room when she recognized the voices. "Mary, Alice. What are you doing here?"

"We just wanted to hang out." Alice smiled.

"Okay, well I'm working on my homework, but I guess I can take a break. So, what do you want to do?"

"We have a dare for you. Do you accept?"

"It depends on what the dare is about."

"Ah. The thing is, we want you to make up your mind before you hear the dare." Mary's opened her eyes wider and raised her eyebrows.

"Fine. I accept. You do know that I can't say no to a dare. Now will you tell me what it is?"

"I dare you to make a list of things you want me, Alice, Black, Pettigrew, and Remus to do in exchange for you going on one date with James."

"That doesn't seem fair. Why doesn't James have to do a list?"

"He will do a list. Alice and I get to come up with the requirements for his list. The consequences for you not following through are that you have to go to the Slytherin common room and declare your love for Snape while wearing a chicken costume."

"Alright. When do I have to have the lists done by?

"One person will do their list each day until everyone has done theirs. You only have to write one list by tomorrow. Oh yeah, I almost forgot. James gets his list last, that way he will still be publically humiliated on your date. I'm tired, so good night."

"Night," Lily and Alice spoke at the same time. Alice and Mary left the room while Lily stood there watching them. She figured she might as well get started on the list, so she went over to her desk and made the first draft. It would be Peter's turn first, because she thought he was creepy, so she figured she might as well get it over with.


Half an hour later, James Potter walked into the heads common room. He had taken a walk, and then visited his friends. They had told him that the girls had a plan to get him and Lily together. As he looked around the room and spotted the red haired girl of his dreams, he could not help but hope that the plan would work.
