Sassy: SetoXSara is now SasseriaDavies. Also known as me.

Sara: *cries* WE ARE HORRIBLE PEOPLE! WE ARE SO SORRY FOR THE LACK OF UPDATES DX!

Sassy: The laptop packed in ages ago and Word isn't working, so basically, no writing until it gets fixed.

Sara: However, we have control of the other laptop now! Sasseria would like to formally apologize for updates or lack thereof.

Sassy: She's had some shiz to deal with and... well, it's not been fun. Things are going okay at the moment though!

Sara: Anyway, to the chapter!

DISCLAIMER: SEE CHAPTER 1.

Stage 4: The Spectacular Gesture Number One

The 'Love Doctor' bashed his head on the table as his two best friends yanked on his arms and clothes. "Moony we need you! We need your ability and expertise! Why won't you heeelp!?" James poked him repeatedly.

Sirius whined. "Remus, help us please! You like Evans and Davies, you like us, so why won't you work your magic? Please!"
Remus growled under his breath. "If I do this, do you promise to leave me to get on with this damn Potions essay, please? Because, for the love of Merlin, you two are making we want to pull my hair out and shove it down your annoying throats!"

Padfoot cocked his head to the side, rather canine-like. "How can throats be annoying?"

The sandy haired boy sighed and shut his book, motioning for the boys to sit down. They grinned and eagerly pulled up their chairs; Now things where going to get awesome! "So James. You received a note from Lily after Charms, telling you to meet her in the Room of Requirement along with Sirius and Sassy, correct?"

"What do you think it means?"

"Well, judging by the fact it says 'meet us in the where we arranged, love Doe and Paws', I'm guessing she wants you to come to the Room of Requirement." He joked. Prongs scowled and slugged him playfully.

"I know that, Moons. I mean, what are they going to do?" The werewolf pondered this question for a moment or two. What were those girls planning? No doubt it would be something both clever and daring, if it were a Ravenclaw and Gryffindor like those two. Remus rethought the bet at hand. If the girls won, the boys would leave them alone... but did they really want that now? Perhaps...

"You need to plan something big to wow them, because you need to make sure they won't distance themselves by making arses out of you both tonight. Time for 'the Spectacular Gesture Number One.' Remus smirked at his friends' expressions. First, they were going to need to change. "You two, upstairs now!" The Quidditch players jumped up one almost bounding to the dorm room, the other one strolling beside him. Remus shook his head. Those guys...

~Some time later, when they were actually dressed...~

"So, why are we in our Yule Ball dress robes again?" Sirius asked, preening in the mirror while Remus fixed the tails of his jacket. "Well, you need to be able to wow your lovers or whatever. So the first step is 'Look like a gentleman.'" The werewolf stepped back and nodded. "Finished." The boys looked... well, spectacular. Which, come to think of it, was the idea. James' hair was tamed to some degree, and Sirius wasn't drowning in cologne like usual. Yes, they were shaping up nicely indeed.

"Right," James started, brushing down his sleeves. "What's the plan, mate?" Not that he would show it, but James was actually pretty damn nervous about meeting up with Lily. She was easily the prettiest girl in the school in hie eyes. When he thought about that beautiful auburn hair tumbling down her back... Prongs sighed.

"Prongs! Listen, for Merlin's sake! What you two are going to do is be gentlemen. You are Gryffindors; chivalry is who you are. Now, while you were getting changed, I went and spoke to Elsy."

James sniggered. "What, the house elf with the crush on you?" He nudged Sirius and the both of them cackled, but Remus soon glared them into submission.

"No James. You guys took longer than I thought, so it should hopefully be ready by now. There is a three course meal for four waiting in the kitchens-"

"Moony, you genius! Sassy adores food! It's like, her second favourite thing! Apart from me, of course." Padfoot posed, before being shoved by Prongs into his bed post. The boys laughed.

James looked thoughtful for a moment. "Will we be needing the Map and the Cloak?" He asked, retrieving said items from the chest and the end of his bed. Remus nodded.

"Yeah. We're going to cover the food with the cloak and I'll levitate it."

"Wandless?" Sirius looked up.

"Yeah, it's good practice." Remus grinned, for the time had come. "Oh! You two, stay under the cloak until we get out of the common room, in case we pass the girls, okay? We don't want to ruin the surprise, now do we?" The boys grinned back and concealed themselves in the cloak.

They descended the stairs, and who should Remus run into? One Lily Evans, of course. "Hey Lily." he said smoothly, surprising the hidden friends with his composed attitude.

"Hi Remus," Lily smiled. "Popping out, are we?"

"Fetching chocolate. Elsy makes brilliant chocolate balls." It took everything in James and Sirius not to burst out laughing right then. "Well, see you later."

The redhead smirked. "Maybe you will, and maybe you won't." With that, she bounced up the stairs to the girls dorm, narrowly brusing past James under the cloak. Remus carried on with the boys behind them and down to the kitchens they went.

~in the Room of Requirement~

"Everything set?" Remus stepped back. "Yes. It's ready. I'm going now. Have fun!" He skipped out to the cries of "Moony, no wait please-" He chuckled to himself. He was so great.

Sara: Done! Phew! Took a whileto get back into this writing thing. Anyway, updates will be much more frequent from now on. I swear!

Sassy: Review please? Give us feedback, tell us what you liked, what was crap etc.
