"Prongsie...who is it now?" Sirius was growing impatient. He was pulling on James shirt like a small kid wanting ice-cream and pulling on his mum's shirt, only that Sirius was not a kid nor did he want a ice-cream nor was James his mother.

"Padfoot think logically." James demanded.

"Don't you remember who you are talking to?" Sirius gave him his I-don't-think-logical-look.

"Oh." James said. "Yeah, well, we are in a girls bath room."

"Duh. I am not THAT stupid."

James ignored Sirius's interruption and went on "Lily told me, that a ghost haunted a particular girls bath room."

Sirius still looked confused.

"Oh Padfoot! You really are dumb. It is Moaning Myrtle!"

"Oh! You might be right." Sirius said. "And by the way, I KNEW it, I just wanted to make sure you did!"

"mhmm." James said with a small smirk circling his lips. "Come on. Lily must be out already or so." James was about ready to open the door, but Sirius held him back.

"Don't go out like this! It will look awkward. 'Hello I am James and I admit I was in the girls bath room!'" Sirius said trying to mimic Jame's voice.

"Yeah, yeah...you're right. What should I do?"

The boys paced up and down the room. None of them had an idea to come up with.

"She isn't out yet." said a giggling girl voice.

"AHHHHH" Sirius shouted. He was grabbing to James so hard that James punched him.

"Padfoot! Don't be a baby. You know Moaning Myrtle!"

"Yeah, yeah, I know, I was just shocked to -to see her again like that!" he looked away from her. James looked now toward Myrtle and saw she was just wearing a T-shirt and an underwear.

"Oh Merlin! Gee, Myrtle! Please spear us from THAT sight!" James complained looking the opposite direction.

"Haven't you ever seen a girl in just her panties and a T-shirt?" she asked innocently with a small smile, though.

The boys shook their heads vehemently. Myrtle was still smiling.

"So, as I was saying, Lily isn't outside, she is still here."

"What? Where?" James asked, still not turning around.

"Oh well, I don't know." Myrtle said innocently.

"Please. I really need to know!" James pleaded.

"Mhmm...okay, but you owe me big time!"

"Yes we do!"

"We? No, no, no, just you prongsie, I have nothing to do with all of it!" Sirius defended himself.

"Oh yes, you too, you were the one going in here!"

"I just wanted to bring some action in his date. You were so cute as you two had dinner, but after you saw us it all went dull and boring."

"There you go. After I knew you two were there! I feel uncomfortable with you two staring at me and Lily!"

"Don't blame this lousy date on Moony's and my presence!! I was just getting some more action!"

"Action? I don't need action. I need to be alone with Lily."

"Well, you are along."

"Na ah! You are there."

"Not visible though." Sirius smirked. James didn't know what to respond to that.

"You fight like girls." Myrtle said with a small giggle.

Both of the boys looked at her, but regretted their action. She still was half naked.

"Okay" James sighed. "What should we do next?"

Meanwhile Remus was shifting his weight from one foot to another. He was now waiting for almost 3 minutes and they still weren't out yet and neither was Lily. What could they be doing that long in a girls bath room? He thought that James might not find Sirius and therefore it took them so long to come out again. But then on the other hand, what in Merlin's name was Lily doing so long in the bath room? He simply was at loss.

"Okay, I am going in there, and getting James out, before this date blows up!" he was about to go in when he heard his name.

"Remus? What are you doing here?" He looked around and saw Lily standing behind him. "Did you want to go into the girls bath room?" Lily tried not to giggle.

"I-I no, I was just going to the males bathroom and now I realized it is the girl's one. Hehe" Remus said trying to laugh his way out. Gee is this embarrassing he thought.

"Sure." Lily teased. "Oh have you by any chance seen James?"

"I -uhm-I don't now. I guess." What the bloody hell am I saying? He thought in despair.

"You don't know or you won't tell?"

"I – I -have a problem with my memory, I forgot to take my pills, which help me to memorize everything but because I forgot I cannot remember." Okay, this is really getting ridiculous.

"Remus, you are a smart boy, and you know that and so do I. So, please don't give me that stupid excuse okay?"

"I mean it. I really have a hard time to remember stuff."

"Sure. Now if you won't help me, then fine. I will find him anyway."

"Okay."Good, now she will go and look for him, while I can go inside the girl's bathroom and get James out of there.

But Remus plan was failing. "Lily, what are you still doing here?"

"I am waiting."

"For what?"

"James."

"I thought you wanted to search for him?"

"Yeah, well, I thought, that if I leave and go looking he might come back here and I wouldn't be here anymore, so I figured I stay."

"Perhaps he is gone to the boy's bathroom. So you might want to wait for him there?"

"Perhaps, but perhaps not. I'll just stay here."

Both of them were just standing there and waiting.

"Oh, James." Remus acted surprising. "I know where he went!"

Lily looked confused. "What were you thinking as we talked? I said his name several times."

"I-I know, but it was just so unusual you using his first name so I thought we were talking about some other James."

Lily stared at Remus for a few seconds to see whether or not he was lieing. He just smiled uncomfortably.

"I-I saw him going to the bathroom. He said, he had a lot to drink and he was bursting."

First Lily said nothing, but then she just nodded and said "I think I'll go and check. But if he comes here, could you please tell him to wait."

Remus nodded.

Lily smiled and went down the hall.

The boys bathroom isn't too far away so I have about one minute and she'll be back.

With that he went into the girl's bathroom, finding James and Sirius sitting on the washbasin and thinking, but their eyes were shut.

"Mate, I got it. You walk out and if she's there you'll just say, 'I had to pee, too'." Sirius said.

"Oh yeah, and I couldn't have run down the hallway and gone to the boy's bathroom?"

"Well, you really HAD to pee BADLY!!!"

"Guys, come out now! She's gone, but she'll be back soon!"

"Moony?" Sirius said.

"No, a ghost with Moony's voice!" Remus said. "If you idiots would open your eyes then you would see me."

"Oh well, we have a small little problem with opening them." James said.

"Sure. You are blinded by the bathroom light I guess?" Remus said sarcastically.

"No, but Myrtle is kinda -"

"Bloody hell." Remus had turned around and saw Myrtle. She was watching the boys with a wide smile. Obviously she enjoyed their conversation.

"Okay, I get it, but still James, come out now! Lily will be back soon."

"Fine." James jumped and Remus and James went out, but as Sirius wanted to come out of the bathroom too, Remus pushed him in again.

"No, you can't. Lily only saw me and I promised her to wait for James. If your are here too, she will get suspicious!"

"But-but-but- I don't want to be here alone." Sirius said.

"Oh, you won't be. I'll accompany you!" Myrtle said with a slight smirk.

Remus smiled and pushed Sirius in again.

"Pleeeease! Don't! I will die!!!!" Sirius whined.

"Then you can share the toilet with me." Myrtle giggled.

"That was quite mean you know Moony." James said with a grin on his face.

"I know." Remus was trying not to laugh out loud. "But he kinda deserves it."

"So, what should I say, when I see Lily?" James asked Remus.

But instead of answering his question Remus looked straight towards Lily, who was walking towards them, with a not so nice look on her face.

"Uh-oh." James swallowed heavily.
