Hey Wormy?
Yes.
Are you gay?
No.
Are you sure?
Yes.
Positive?
Padfoot, I am not gay.
I don't know... You were watching me at Quidditch training like a hawk.
No I wasn't! It just happened that when I looked up from my homework that you would look down and see me.
What a coincidence that I looked down about ten times and saw you watching me about eight of those times.
What a coincidence...
You know what Wormy?
What?
I think you're gay.
For the last time Padfoot, I am NOT gay!
I think you're lying.
And I think you are being mean.
Who's being mean?
You're being mean.
Hello!
Hi Prongsie! Do you think I'm mean?
...
PRONGS!
Sometimes...
I thought you were my friend!
So did I.
Well of course you're friends with yourself.
How would you know?
I thought I knew you Prongs, but now I can see it was all just a lie.
Awe boo hoo!
Hey, you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you. You're so lazy you didn't read all those 'you's and you didn't notice that there was a 'yoo'. Now you're trying to find the 'yoo' and you're dissappointed because you couldn't find the 'yoo'. Now you just realised that there probably wasn't a 'yoo' in the first place.
You can read my thoughts in the future!
Freaky.
Strange people my friends are.
And that's why you love us!
Right you are.
Padfoot, I came up with a new nickname for you!
And what is it?
Lassie!
Come o'er here ya' ol' dog you!
Padfoot's a wee Lassie.
What type of name is that?
A funny one.
I don't find it funny.
That's because the joke's on you.
Well at least Lassie is a smart dog. He's smarter than Bambi.
Bambi is a baby deer! Not a fully grown dog.
Still.
There is no 'still'.
When's lunch?
After class.
When's that?
In time.
How much time?
I'm not Merlin! I don't know everything!
Wow, I thought you did.
There's a clock above the door you idiots.
I know that...
Now.
Don't finish my sentences.
Why not? It gives them a whole new meaning.
Exactly. I say things how I mean them.
That doesn't make any sense at all.
It makes plenty sense!
To you.
And you alone.
Sometimes I wonder if I even know you people.
That's stupid.
So are you.
So is your face.
Lame comeback alert. Warning warning.
Padfoot is a robot.
And what led you to that conclusion?
He has no heart or feelings.
Good backup.
That would explain a lot.
Beep beep. Vvvvrm!
Let's play Truth or Dare!
Ok.
I'm in.
I'll go first.
Ask away my friend!
Truth or dare, Moony?
Truth.
Who do you like?
Must I really answer?
Yes!
Ok... I like
Drum roll please!
... Chloe.
Really? I thought you liked Molly.
No. She moves too fast in relationships for me.
Moony is a turtle.
Prongs, Truth or dare?
Dare! Truth is for turtles.
Humf! I dare you to propose to Lily when professor Mairclust tells us to open our textbooks.
Alright! I was going to do something stupid towards Evans anyway but you just gave me an excuse.
In the meantime, while we wait for the instruction, Prongs ask someone.
Wormtail, truth or dare?
Truth.
Turtle!
Ummm... Wormtail, Are you gay?
NO!
Ok, now that we've got that straight... Ask someone Wormtail.
Padfoot. Truth or dare?
Dare!
Well that was predictable.
I dare you to make a farting noise just after Prongs proposes to Lily.
NOOOOO!
Alright, highscore!
"Ok, everybody get out your textbooks and turn to page three-hundred and ninety-four. We will be looking at the symptoms of Flobberworm stings." said professor Mairclust to the class.
James slowly stood up and walked over to Lily, who was oblivious to him and kept flipping through her textbook. James coughed to get her attention and she looked up, along with the rest of the class. Everything went silent. The sound of turning pages and chalk on the blackboard at the front stopped and all eyes were on James.
"Can I help you, Potter?" Lily asked, trying not to sound impatient in front of the class and professor. James remained standing there silently just looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, but heavily feeling the eyes of the whole class digging into him.
"Um... er, yes.." James stuttered as he came out of his trance. He knelt down on one knee and pretended to hold a ring out to her. "Will you, Lily Evans, marry me?" he asked, trying not to let his voice quiver. He held his breath unknowingly and waited for her to explode.
Lily looked surprised at the least. Her eyes went wide and her face went red with embarrassment. She quickly looked around the room for guidance, support or anything that could give her an idea of what to do. Lily knew she was expected to start yelling but hadn't she done enough lately? She saw many faces of her classmates studying her, waiting for a reaction. How was she supposed to react? Lily stood up slowly and looked down at James. She decided to go with the expected.
"JAMES POTTER YOU ARE AN ARROGANT, BULLYING TOATRAG!" Lily yelled as loud as she could at the kneeling boy in front of her. Fear danced across his face but was gone in a flash. He stood, now a few inches taller than Lily to her discomfort, and took a step backward. Then another and another, until he crashed into a desk. At this point the class was still silent, looking from James to Lily. James face was expressionless but his body language said that he regretted asking Lily what he had.
Just when they thought things couldn't get more awkward there was a loud farting sound from the Marauders table. The class and the professor(who was still standing at the front of the room) turned to see Remus and Peter holing their noses while Sirius sat there, smiling like an idiot.
The classroom erupted with laughter and some people were actually rolling on the floor laughing. James seized the opportunity to dash back to his seat and sit down next to Sirius, who was still grinning.
"Just trying to fuse the tension." Sirius chirped to James. It was then that a disturbingly disgusting smell caught James' nose. He imitated Remus and Peter and held his nose.
"It was real!" was all James managed to choke out to Sirius.
"I prefer the term 'extremely realistic'." Sirius replied, still grinning like a maniac at nothing.
"You disgust me!" James yelled over the loud laughter.
"I love you too!" Sirius yelled back.
After a few air-cleansing charms and a bit of yelling from professor Mairclust, the class was back to normal, with the exceptions of a few people randomly breaking out laughing here and there and certain people extremely red in the face.
*Back to writing on the note*
Well that was fun!
More like stupid.
Fun, stupid. Same thing.
Was it really necessary to actually fart?
Was it necessary to ask me that question, Potter?
It's not my fault I swear! We were playing truth or dare!
That rhymed!
Shut it!
You didn't really have to do it though! You could have just said pass.
Marauders don't play with the pass rule. You have to do whatever's thrown at you.
You could always catch it and throw it back.
What does that mean in non-metaphorical phrases?
Revenge.
I like that word.
Well I think it was unnecessary.
It was rather awkward.
Just a bit.
Prongs was like.. peeing his pants he was so scared and you looked even more like a tomato.
Stop mentioning food!
Why?
It's making me even more hungry.
The bell will go soon anyway.
Isn't Wormy always hungry?
What's with your weird nicknames?
Why all the questions?
Why so secretive?
Why all the sass?
Why such stupid behavior?
Why so many insults?
Because you deserve them. And you are avoiding the question, what's with the nicknames?
That, my deer lady, is not my secret to tell.
Well... It is partly.
And mine.
And mine!
What about Remus? Isn't he in on it too?
In a way... Stop asking questions.
But you could be doing something dangerous!
No kidding...
Lassie! Stop giving us away!
If only it was that easy... Just hand you all over and off with your head...
You've read Alice in Wonderland?
Yes. And for the record, I found it very entertaining.
You're so immature.
But life wouldn't be fun if we were all like you and Moony!
I take that as an insult!
Please do.
No need to ask.
*The bell rings and the class bustles out the door*
"Saved by the bell, eh?" Sirius said and nudged James.
"I really didn't think is was necessary that you farted." said Remus. The four boys walked out of the classroom with their book bags, parchment and quills.
"Well I think it was more realistic." Sirius said smiling at the memory.
"I think it was too realistic." muttered Peter.
"Come on, let's go to lunch!" piped up Peter. The four boys walked on and got lost in the crowd of students who were also rushing to get to lunch.
*THE END*(of another chapter)
I'm sorry if there are any mistakes or problems with this chapter but I was being distracted by some people when I was writing this. Please review and make me a very happy person.
Love always
