"I told our plan would work!" Sirius boasted to James at dinner, "and you had doubts!"

"Sirius," James started, exasperated, "it was my plan."

Sirius carried on heedless, "I still can't believe you doubted me," he sighed, patting James' back.

A twitch developed in James' cheek.

"I mean look at them, they're so happy," he said, pointing to Ginny and Remus how were laughing happily further down the table.

A twitch had also developed just above James' left eye.

"I am just awesome admi-"

"IT WAS MY PLAN YOU ANNOYING DOG!!!!!" James had finally lost it.

"AND WEREN'T YOU GOING TO SAY TO MOONY ABOUT HIS WEIGHT, HUH, HUH?!!"

Oh yes, James had lost both his temper and his mind.

Everyone in the hall was slowly backing, very much like they did to Hermione when she was acting overly sweet.

"James-"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WOULD YOU WOULD TAKE CREDIT FOR MY AWESOME PLAN!!!"

"James," this time it was Lily.

"AND YOU KNOW YOU SOMETHING, YOU ARE A SCABBBY MONGREL!!!!!"

"James," there was more urgency in Lily's voice now.

"ACTUALLY YOU'RE A SCABBY FLEA BITTEN MONGREL, SO HAH!!!!"

"JAMES!!!!" Lily screamed, leaping into his arms.

Unfortunately James wasn't paying attention and Lily slammed into the ground.

"Lily?" James said, as if snapping out of a trance, "what are you doing on the floor?"

"AAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Hermione screamed, standing on the bench, "IT'S GIANT!!!!!"

"What is?" Ginny asked, coming over, holding hands with Remus, she looked where Hermione was looking, "OH MY GOD!!!"

And she to leapt to the safety of the bench.

Lily was stranded.

And she was staring at the thing wide eyed.

It

Was

A

….

Spider.

Everyone bar Lily were on the bench, frantically calling for her crawl to the bench slowly as not to anger The Spider.

She took their advice, but The Spider saw and moved closer, the hall froze.

"LILY!!!!" echoed throughout the hall and James jumped in front of Lily, shielding her from The Spider, "I will not let you harm her you evil hairy beast of the devil!"

Lily, while James distracted The Spider, had successfully managed to get to the safety of the bench.

"James," Sirius croaked weakly, "you will always be in our hearts."

All the hall, except for the Slytherins, bowed their heads in respect as James ran around the hall screaming:

"GET IT OFF GET IT OFF!!!!!"

The Spider had managed to crawl on to James leg and was clinging there looking up at him with hearts in its many eyes.

(Time skip to later in the evening)

The Spider was sitting curled in James' lap like a dog and had been christened Shika which meant 'deer' in Japanese ironic huh?

"I can't believe you kept that thing," Lily said with disgust, screwing up her nose, "it's gross."

Shika glared at her, which was kind of creepy considering how many eyes it had.

"How dare you talk about our beloved Shika that way!" James said, putting his hand over his heart.

The boys nodded in agreement.

"Well, that's funny because an hour ago you were running round the Great Hall screaming, 'get it off get it off'!" Hermione retorted, sticking up for her friend.

The girls nodded in agreement and the genders split with the all girls on one side of the Common Room and all boys on the other.

"Well, we've bonded," Sirius said, stroking Shika's head.

A nod came from the boys.

"It's a disgustingly huge spider, how have you bonded exactly?" Ginny butted in, her brown eyes narrowed to slits.

"We named it," Remus cooed, picking Shika up and cuddling her and considering it was the size of a small teddy bear, the task was simple.

"Wow," Lily interjected sarcastically, "well you're going to have to get rid of it."

"Why?" James whined, plucking Shika out Remus' arms and holding her protectively.

"Because otherwise," Lily said smirking, an evil glint in her eye, "I'll break up with you."

Gasps came from the boys side of the Common Room and smirks from the girls.

"You-you can't do that!" Sirius said, "he's been trying to get you to be his girlfriend for years, I can't stand another day of listening to his whining!!!"

"Well then," Hermione said, an evil grin plastered in place, "better get rid of Shika," she said, saying the last word sarcastically.

"But-" Remus started.

"No buts, get rid of it," Ginny ordered.

"Can we at least keep her for the night, we can throw her a party?" James asked, his eyes filling with tears.

The girls looked at each other and sighed, "fine."

"Come on, Shika," Sirius gulped, "we'll throw the best party ever."

And so that night, the best party Gryffindor had ever seen was thrown, in honour of Shika.
