Phoebe's POV

I lay on my bed daydreaming about my day, during charms Remus had swapped seats with Lily so that she could sit by Sirius and continue the plan whilst he sat by me. The lesson went past in a blur as we laughed and schemed. I sighed in happiness as I remembered his breathtaking grin, his teeth always glistening, rolling over I faced Lily and Jemma who were sat on the floor of our room playing exploding snap and discussing Sirius and James comical reactions throughout the day.

"Ha did you see James fall over when he walked past you as you were running your hand up Sirius's leg I could have swore he was about to pass out" cackled Jemma.

"That wasn't as funny as Sirius's when he realised I was running me hand up his leg, if it wasn't for the fact it was me and James would kill him I bet he would have took me into a broom cupboard"

"And have his devilish way with you hey Lily" I laughed wiggling my eyebrows suggestively

"Well who wouldn't" lily gasped in fake shock, but not quite able to hide a smirk.

We burst into laughter. I threw a pillow at her head before jumping off the bed and joining them on the floor sitting next to Jemma.

"tut tut Lily your suppose to be in love with James so don't go corrupting poor Sirius" Jemma giggled, "oh wait I just realised it's Sirius were talking about, like anyone can corrupt him he's well past that".

"I know right" lily said "he oozes sexual tension... almost as much that oozes out of Remus and Phoebe whenever there in the same room" she added, two pairs of eyes turned towards me in a knowing manor. I hid my blushing face under my hair

"Come on Pheb's we've all been friends since first year, you think we don't know when you like someone...ALOT" Lily said pushing my hair out of my face.

"Admit it" added Jemma "we've seen the way you look at each other your practically striping each other with your minds"

"!" I sat opened mouth in shock at that moment there was a knock on the door and as I blurted out "I do not imagine Remus naked" the boy himself strolled into the room. Lily and Jemma burst into laughter clutching their stomachs as they howled.

Remus's face was bright red, it was obvious he had heard my outburst, most likely the whole Gryffindor tower did, I wanted the ground to swallow me up. But to my utmost shock Remus just turned to face us and began to speak

Remus POV

I tried to calm the blush I knew covered my cheeks, I could see Phoebe sitting on the floor her hands covering her face. I tried to forget the comment I heard as I walked into the room, if it had embarrassed me I knew it would be way worse for Phoebe and I didn't want her feeling uncomfortable, even if it had embarrassed me.

What did she mean by not imaging me naked? Does that mean she doesn't want to see me naked? Not that I expect her to want to see me naked or anything but it's not a good sign if you like a girl and she's so repulsed by you she wouldn't want to see you naked, but then again she didn't say she was repulsed by me.

I pushed my conflicting thoughts to the back of my head as I delivered the news I had snuck up here to tell the girls in the first place "I haven't got long I told the rest of the marauders that I had an idea for the potion but actually I just came to tell you that its going exactly to plan, their totally convinced and your antics are embarrassing the hell out of them, and I don't think I've even seen James curse so much in his life" I tried to laugh wholeheartedly but Phoebes comment had stung "there going down to the common room later, before dinner."

Did it mean she didn't like me? Or did it just mean that she didn't imagine me naked? I mean she can still like me and not want to see me naked, right?

My thoughts were interrupted by Jemma who stood up and began jumping up and down gleefully "this is great, right Lily we need to get you ready for dinner and seeing James and Sirius later and make some more plans" lily joined Jemma in her crazed dance routine. Phoebe was still sat on the floor refusing to raise her head, instead opting to stare avidly at one patch of carpet. I turned towards the door ready to leave a sad expression on my face, Phoebe looked so upset and embarrassed I felt really bad, the fact that she obviously didn't like me if she couldn't even look at me making matters worse. I sighed as I walked to the door.

As I left lily pulled me down to her and whispered in my ear "don't worry she really likes you" I was in confusion as she ushered me out of the room. As I stood outside of the room my brain finally came into gear, did lily mean phoebe liked me? I sure hoped she did but I wasn't going to get my hopes up. Phoebe was adored by many boys, even if she was oblivious to it, she could have practically any boy she wanted if she wasn't so shy about her beauty, though Sirius often said similar things about me.

Phoebe's POV

As the door closed behind Remus I lifted my head to see Lily and Jemma in front of me. I felt like crying, I couldn't believe he had heard me saying I didn't imagine him naked!

What if he thinks I don't like him now? When I really do like him a lot, not that that means I want to see him naked does it? I don't think it does, I know that I want to spend time with him and that when I'm with him I want to hold onto him and not let him go, but does that mean I want to see him naked?

I screamed in frustration "what wrong with me?"

Lily and Jemma looked at me in shock, lily pulling me into her arms "Phe there's nothing wrong with you"

"yeah well how come I'm always embarrassing myself in front of him, he must hate me now" I replied scornfully.

"Remus anything but hates you" Jemma sighed pushing back my hair again which had fell into my face "and you don't always embarrass yourself."

"ye well he obviously does hate me seen as in the last two days I've managed to hex him, splash him with water and said that I don't want to see him naked" I mumbled into Lily's shoulder.

"don't worry about Remus" Lily soothed "he like's you Pheb's everyone can see that."

I looked into her emerald eyes, "really?" I whispered.

"really" Jemma and Lily replied together, giggling at my expression.

I cheered up slightly at the prospect but didn't want to get my hopes up. I sighed "well shouldn't you be getting ready to wow Sirius and James" I asked Lily.

We spent the next half an hour dressing lily up like a doll and creating a catwalk down the centre of our room which we strutted up and down posing and twirling as we went. After Lily had been dressed in the perfect outfit not too showy, but just enough to make James and Sirius, as they say 'hot under the collar' we made our way to the common room.

Lily was wearing high-waisted denim shorts which belonged to Jemma and extenuated her toned legs, with a low cut green vest top tucked into them which matched her eyes, her long hair extending down her back.

Jemma was wearing skinny jeans that hugged to her figure and showed off her curves, over it she wore an AllTimeLow t-shirt and a blazer, with the sleeves rolled up. She always looked the glamorous rock chick with her natural curls slung back in a messy bun, strands falling loose and framing her face.

Jemma and Lily had insisted I wore a turquoise dress, that came into an empire waist under the bust and then flowed out to about 2 inch's above my knee. The back of the dress scoped down revealing most of my back, lily had used magic to make the back of my bra invisible, my hair lay in waves around my shoulders, which Jemma had done using her wand.

I felt a bit overdressed, just for dinner when it was supposed to be Lily who was out to impress but when I voiced my opinion I was told that I was to wear the dress and that was final, as I looked too gorgeous in it not to wear it, and it would definitely impress Remus.

I blushed at the thought, but didn't comment again. I knew I was pretty, I acknowledged the stares me and my friends would get as we wondered the corridors but the attention was mostly embarrassing so I ignored it. The only boy that I wished would give me that sort of attention was Remus, and if me wearing this dress could possible get me the attention I desperately wanted then I was going to wear it.

"Ready" Jemma asked as we stood in front of the full length mirror.

"Ready" me and Lily echoed.

"Ok lets go" Jemma said turning towards the door.

Jemma POV

We walked through the common room towards the settees, eyes followed us as we walked past, boring into our backs. Wolf whistles erupted from a group of seventh years who had pulled their eye's away from the game they had been playing to stare at the us. I smiled cheekily at them. Before turning my attention back towards the group of marauders sprawled across the settees.

Their heads slowly turned as they strained to see what was making all the commotion of gasps and wolf whistling. As their eyes settled on us one by one, they all straightened up, mouths hanging open in shock. We very rarely dressed up, mainly we would just lounge around in jeans, t-shirts and hoodies, it was a shock to see us dressed up when their wasn't a party and even then they were normally themed so didn't require the use of smart clothes.

I was glad to notice that I had attracted the attention of Sirius, he had only ever acknowledge me as a friend more one of the guys then, of girl friend material like most of the other lads at Hogwarts. Not that I practically wanted to become another name on his long list, I had just always wanted to be acknowledged as a...well as a girl.

Sirius POV

We were sat in the common room discussing Quidditch, when there was suddenly gasps and wolf whistles erupting throughout the common room we turned to see what the commotion was. I was expecting some girl bent over to revel some sexy underwear, but what I saw was much better and totally unexpected.

I sat up frozen my mouth gaping open. Walking towards us were three of the most beautiful girls I had ever seen, dressed up but still casual at the same time. On the left of the three girls walked the most stunning girl I had ever seen, her eyes sparkling, dressed in rocker chick clothes but yet she didn't seem a poser like most other rock styled girls at school.

I suddenly realised as they advanced closer that I was staring at Jemma. I saw James and Remus stiffen from the corner of my eye as they to realised who the girls were.

They stopped right in front of us. "Mind if we sit here" asked Phoebe sweetly, Remus started to stutter in reply making Phoebe blush as he managed to nod slowly, realising he no longer had the ability to make coherent sentences.

As Phoebe and Jemma sat down I continued to sit there gawping at Jemma.

"Close your mouth Sirius it's not the most attractive of looks" Jemma said winking at me, I continued to stare at her in confusion, since when had Jemma been hot? Pretty yes, but hot! I knew one thing for sure, there was no way I could ever consider Jemma one of the lads again.

My gaze and thoughts were pulled away from Jemma as suddenly I had the body of Lily sprawled over me.

A/N: this is my favourite chapter so far as it involves a bit of Phoebe and Remus romance :D and is there something brewing between Sirius and Jemma?? thanks for reading and reviews will be greatly appreciated
