Hm. No review yet, just an alert or two. Tough crowd! But either way, I'm going to keep posting. But reviews are appreciated.
Disclaimer: Why do I even need this? Well, I assure you all I am not J.K anyway. If I were, I would have also included a series about the Marauders' school years. I mean, clearly-I can't get enough of them!
I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.
"Are we clear?" Lily hissed.
"Crystal." Sirius replied.
Lily scowled and eyed him suspiciously before muttering, "Liberacorpus."
Sirius dropped from hanging upside down in the air, landing rather hard on his bum. Scrambling to his feet, Sirius quickly wiped the hair out of his eyes, making it fall back to its elegance. "Nice Levicorpus, Evans," Sirius winked.
"Sirius Orion Black…"
He laughed. "That's my name, don't wear it out."
Lily ignored him. "Stop being a self-righteous prick and clear your head, and leave. Me. Alone." Lily gave him one last withering look before her eye caught something over his shoulder. Scowling again, she walked away.
"Hey, Padfoot," Sirius could just hear James' grin.
"Hi Prongs, mate," Sirius said, turning around. "What are you-hey, is something funny?"
James kept grinning.
"What is it?" Sirius anxiously put a hand up to his face. "Evans didn't mess up my beautiful face, did she?"
James kept grinning. "No, Padfoot. You're still as ugly as ever."
Sirius reached over, whacking James on the head. "Shut up," Sirius paused. "But Siriusly. What happened?"
Now it was James' turn to wink. "You're an averagely intelligent bloke. You'll figure it out."
Sirius opened his mouth. "What-"
"Like I said," James chuckled. "Averagely intelligent."
"Hey," Sirius defended. "I'm smart. Who managed to become an…" Sirius lowered his voice. "…Animagus?"
"True, but you've got nothing on Moony, he's smarter that a million Padfoots put together."
Sirius scowled. "Oh, bugger off."
"So, Sirius," began James casually, "Why was Evans mad at you?"
Sirius shrugged. "Come on, mate. You know the routine. She thinks I pulled a prank on her. Of course, I have no idea what she's talking about…James!" Sirius suddenly exclaimed.
James looked at him innocently. "Yes?"
"Evans…Evans thought I did something to her. Apparently someone jinxed her hair to match her eye color." Sirius narrowed his eyes. "I, of course, would never. But you…"
James winked.
"Prongs!" Sirius cried loudly, earning him a few looks from passing students. "You didn't."
James shrugged. "You're right. I didn't."
Sirius frowned.
"But," James continued. "Sirius apparently did. Did you know Slughorn has some Poly-Juice Potion? Weird, right?"
Sirius glared. "James!" He cried. "I can't believe you would do this to me and Evans!"
"You're right," James admitted. "Neither can I. And actually, Sirius, I didn't use Poly-Juice." James grinned. "It would be pretty weird if you suddenly saw yourself jinxing yourself, right?"
"What?" Sirius blanched, catching on. "You mean…you mean that was meant for me?"
James nodded. "A bit slow on the uptake, aren't you, Pads?"
"James Potter!" Sirius cried, his hand flinging out his wand. "I'm going to get you!"
James laughed, knowing Sirius was being playful. "Right. Expelliarmus!"
Sirius gasped as his wand flew out of his hand into James'. James just looked at him and winked. Sirius growled.
"Prongs…"
James let out a low chuckle again. "Oh, lighten up, mate. April Fool's!" Sirius stared. "Come on, Sirius! Don't you know anything about Muggles?"
An hour later James found his hair flashing the colors of the rainbow.
Mischief managed.
I just want to remind you, reviews are appreciated.
