Another week passed pretty uneventful for the Gryfinndor friends. James and Sirius ended up getting a detention from McGonagall after she caught them and the Syltherins hexing each other. It hadn't been a pretty sight. James came back to the heads room with a gash across his cheek, while Sirius' hair had been turned pink. He was furious, he kept on ranting that whoever sent that charm was going to pay.
It had taken Lily an hour to get the pink out since she couldn't stop laughing long enough to cast the spell. All and all it had been a fun night trying to get Sirius to calm down about the whole thing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wednesday morning brought the seven seventh years eating breakfast together when none other then Marshal came up to Lily with his friends behind him, "Miss Lily, I have heard that there is going to be a Hogsmede trip in a few weeks. Would you and your friends, Alisha and Megan like to be our dates?"
When Marshal said dates, Lily spit out her pumpkin juice that she had been drinking, "I swear to god that the last time I went with you, I specifically told you that I would never wanna go out with you again. You're bloody boring."
"And besides, " James said standing up, "She has a boyfriend now."
"Oh congratulation's Remus." Marshal said then walked off, smirking. Lily had to grab onto James to keep him from running after Marshal.
"Calm down! It was nothing." Lily said sharply.
James looked at her, "That's easy for you to say. You didn't have to see your girlfriend get asked out by some arsehole then, get insulted by the same arsehole."
"God James! Grow up!" Lily stormed out of the great hall.
"Great. Look, what I've done now." James said muttering to himself as he followed Lily out of the great hall.
Sirius, Megan, Alisha, Peter and Remus sat there stunned not sure what to do. They had just witnessed Lily's and James' first fight. "Are we supposed to just sit here?" Megan asked.
From over at the Ravenclaw table sat Marshal, he had watched the whole thing and was happy. His plan was working.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lily and James never showed up for Potions but they came in at Charms, happy. They had seemed to of made up. Everyone was happy that they didn't have to pull an intervention on their friends. Since they both were acting pretty immature about the whole situation. Or so Sirius said. Making everyone look at him, shocked.
The day went on making James and Lily completely forget about the morning affair. It was if nothing happened.
Now it was supper time and the group was sitting around discussing their weekend plans.
"I have an idea." Megan said, "How about we all have a big sleep over in the heads room Saturday night, and play some games like spin the bottle and truth or dare!"
Everyone immediately agreed, Sirius jumped up saying that he had the bestest dare EVER! Standing on the bench caught the great halls attention, making everyone laugh at him. But Sirius being well Sirius took that moment to flew his muscles, which got girls giggling around them before he was pulled down by Megan.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was Saturday night. The group of seventh year Gryfinndors were lounging around in Lily's and James common room waiting for the head students to return from patrol so that they could get started with their night. Peter was off somewhere tonight saying that he didn't want to play truth or dare.
"Where are they?" Sirius complained for the hundredth time that night. "It doesn't take that long to patrol."
"Like you would know." Alisha said sarcastically, "You're usually the one being caught."
Sirius gave her a glare. "Haha..."
Megan looked at her friend and boyfriend. Lately she had felt like Sirius didn't like her. They hadn't spent anytime alone together since that night by the lake and she missed that. 'But,' She thought, 'I'm sure I'm just jumping to conclusions...'
The portrait swung open to reveal Lily Evans and James Potter. "FINALLY!!" Sirius jumped up and sat on the ground beside Megan putting his arm around her.
"Sorry, we found Snape by the great hall and well let just say that, that James here had to be all macho!" Lily said as she sat on one of the arm chairs. James came up beside and picked her up then placed her on him on the chair.
"Ok, so what first?" He asked. The group looked around at one another.
"How about truth or dare?" Alisha said smiling as she crossed her legs and snuggled into Remus. "Ok, I'll go first."
"Wait!" Megan got up. "First we need to put truth charms on everyone so that we know they aren't lying."
Everyone looked at one another as Megan came around to cast the spell on them. They all seemed to be thinking the same thing. 'She takes this game to seriously...'
"Ok, so I choose you, Megan. Tuth or dare?" Alisha said smirking at her friend.
"Ummm... let's think..." Megan looked Alisha in the eyes, "Dare."
Alisha squealed, "Ok, I dare you to go to the Ravenclaw, boys dormitiories and get a pair of Marshal Madison's boxers."
Megans face dropped. "But I don't have the password..."
"Oh you don't need a password. You just need to answer a question." Remus told her. Megan scowled at him. She got up and left the common room, under James cloak with Sirius. The rest watched them go on the famousable Marauders map.
"Oh my god she's doing it..." Lily giggled as they saw Megans dot walk around Marshals sleeping figure. Five minutes later, Megan and Sirius ran in.
"Filch just about caught us but we went to the fifth corridor then had to come back around... It was exhausting..." Sirius sighed as he fainted on the couch.
Megan walked over to Alisha and dropped the boxers on her lap. "Ewww!" Alisha laughed pushing them off of her.
"Ok, my turn. James... Truth or Dare?" Megan asked.
James looked down at Lily, "Ummm... truth."
Megan smirked, "Why wouldn't you stop leaving Lily around before?"
James sighed. He should of known that he'd be asked something like that sooner or later, "Well I guess because..."
"Because Prongsie here was infatuated with her." Sirius answered. Everyone laughed.
"Yeah that and because Lily would always say 'No' and it made me want her more..." James explained. "Ok, Moony truth or dare?"
"I think that I'll choose Dare." Remus said.
"Ok I dare you to go to Minny tomorrow and tell her that you lover her." James said. Remus laughed, he was all of a sudden not looking forward to tomorrow when he had to tell Professor McGonagall that he loved her.
Remus scanned the crowd. "Lily, truth or dare?"
Lily looked at her lap. If she chose truth then he'd more then likely ask why she would never say 'yes' to James before, but if she chose dare then she'd have to do one of the stupid dares that the marauders came up with, but it was coming from Remus. "Dare..."
"Ok I dare you to... I dare you to go up to the sixth years boys dormitories and jump into bed with one of them." Everyone burst out laughing. Lily's face went beat red.
"Ok..." She got up and left the heads room. Alisha went with her to verify it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The two girls crept through the corridor to the Gryfinndor common room. It wasn't that far from the heads room thankfully. They tapped on the fat lady's portrait to awake her.
"Huh' whose there?" The portrait said, shaking her head.
"Hipogriff" Lily whispered. The portrait swung open as she saw the two girls.
"It's past curfew girls." The portrait said then swung over to close away the common room.
"Ok, so the sixth year dormitory is up there." Lily and Alisha stood outside of the dorm, suppressing their laughter. The more they tried not to laugh the more they began to make noise.
"Just go get it over with Lily."
"But what if their awake in there."
"Just go!" Alisha pushed Lily in the room. Lily looked around, she saw Tommy Harber. He was on the quidditch team, and as far as Lily knew he wasn't that bad of a bloke.
She quietly crept over to the bed and slowly lifted the covers. Alisha came in behind her with the camera they brought so that they could show everyone else. Lily got in and put the covers over them. She felt Tommy shift and then he turned facing her with his arm around her face. She squealed.
"Alisha his arms around my waist."
Alisha burst out laughing, her hands shook trying to take the picture. She finally was able to gain her composure and took the picture. "Ok come on Lily before we get caught."
Lily tried to get up. "I can't move! His arms around me." Alisha walked over and lifted the covers. Sure enough Tommy had his arm wrapped tightly around her. But he didn't appear to be awake.
"I think this guy can sleep through a hurricane." Alisha whispered. She grabbed a hold of his arm and slowly loosened his grip. Lily slid out from him and stood up. The two girls then ran out of the room.
As they were running out of the common room, Alisha ran into a couch. The two girls stopped and tried their hardest not to wake anyone up. They were laughing their heads off, it was just so late and stupid.
Finally they were able to walk into the heads room. Everyone looked up at them.
"What took you so long?" Megan asked, from where she was sitting beside Sirius.
"Tommy wouldn't let go of Lily." Alisha laughed.
"Well at least I'm not the one who ran into a couch!" Lily retaliated. The two girls looked at one another and burst out laughing. Lily shoved the picture into Remus' hands to show that she did what she was supposed to do.
"Ok my turn. Sirius truth or dare." Lily asked sitting herself back on James' lap.
"Definitely Dare!!" Sirius said. James whispered something into Lily's ear, making her grin.
"Ok Sirius dare it is... Tomorrow you will go down to the great hall for breakfast..." Lily said.
"I do that everyday Lil's" Sirius interrupted.
"I'm not done yet. You will; be wearing your boxers, Megan's pink bra and your robe. And that's all. Oh and we girls are going to be doing your hair and make-up." Everyone looked at Sirius' stunned face and burst out laughing.
Sirius smirked, "Whatever you say boss."
The night then went on like that. Everyone had to do stupid things such as eat a whole cake or eat a raw egg which they got from the kitchens. It was well after 4:00am before anyone closed their eyes to sleep.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Ok Sirius we are done!" Lily said as they made the final touch on his make-up. After much argument they had finally dressed Sirius in Megan's pink bra.
The six friends made their way down stairs. As they started to pass people there was stares and whispers being heard. Sirius just kept on strutting with Megan on his arm. He didn't seem fazed at all by the stairs.
They all sat down at the table.
"Alright Moony know its your time to shine." James said as he patted his werewolf friend on the back. Remus glared at him, then stood up and headed down to where their Transfiguration teacher sat beside the Headmaster.
"Professor McGonagall, I just wanted to come here to tell you that... that I LOVE YOU!!" Remus said, smiled then walked back to where his best friends were laughing their heads off.
"Did you see Minny's face... It was priceless...hahaha." Sirius laughed obviously not concerned with the way he looked.
Professor McGonagall made her way down the table to where the seventh years sat, still laughing. "Mr Black are you aware of the school dress codes?"
Sirius looked up, "Yep."
"Then you should abide by them. You have detention with me, tomorrow night for wearing such clothes."
Sirius looked down at what he was wearing, "Oh I know I forgot to do something this morning..."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The week started just like any other. Each getting a pile of homework to complete. Everyone felt as if they had enough and just needed a break. The Newt year was so stressful, and no one can really be prepared for it until you experience the year. Megan had complained about Owl year but by far Newt year was harder. No one wanted to go to class anymore and just felt like giving up, but that wasn't the case they had gone six years already they only had one year left and the hardest but they were going to do it, together.
Lily lye on the heads couch trying to remember all she needed for her Potions test the next day, when the door swung open to reveal James.
"Hey babe." He said strutting in.
"Hello." Lily sighed. She just didn't want to do anymore work.
"What's wrong?"
"Stupid work."
"Oh."
"Yeah. How was quidditch practice?"
"Not bad. It's getting really cold out though."
"Really. Christmas is going to be here before we know it."
"I've been meaning to talk to you about Christmas break."
"Really..."
"Yeah, I... I was wondering if you'd like to come meet my mum and dad?"
Lily looked at James. They had only been going out with one another for little over a month now and he already wanted her to meet his parents. "I... I... I dunno James... I mean do you want me to meet your parents?"
"Lily you mean the world to me. I've wanted you to be mine for six years and now you finally are. I want you to meet my family so that they can see why I like you so much. Yes of course I do, otherwise I wouldn't of asked you to meet them." James said looking into her emerald eyes.
"I'll have to ask my mom. But then she'll want to meet you too." Lily whispered.
James frowned hugging her. "You don't have to do anything you don't want to Lils'."
"No.. no I do. I'm supposed to... to go meet the girls now. For some girl time... alright."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lily ran into the girls dormitory. "OH MY GOD!"
Alisha and Megan looked up from their work. "What?" Megan asked.
"James just asked me to meet his parents..."
Alisha and Megan's eyes went wide. "Are you serious, that is so sweet." Alisha sighed.
"SWEET!?!?! SWEET?!?! It's not sweet... its... its scary!" Lily cried.
"It's not that bad Lil's... By the time you meet his parents you'll be together for like two months. That's kind of serious, isn't it?" Alisha responded.
"But... But..." Lily began.
"No you are going to go back to James. Since you obviously left him confused. And your going to tell him that you'll meet his parents as long as he agrees to meet your mom." Megan stated.
"Noooo... I don't know if I can." Lily said putting her head in her hands. "It's just so soon."
"But Lily think about it. James has been asking you out forever. And now he has you, he isn't fooling around. He's being serious and sincere and I think you should appreciate that." Alisha told her friend.
Lily looked at her best friends of three years. When you looked at them they were so different. On had short brown hair, the other a long blonde and her long wavy red hair. "I don't know."
"No you do. Now get out of here and go talk to him." Alisha said grabbing a hold of Lily's arm. Lily broke free.
"How about tomorrow?" Lily said lying down on what would of been her bed. "I miss being here. It's gets kind of lonely in the heads room."
Alisha and Megan looked at each other. "Lily, we are your best friends. And we are telling you that you need to go talk to James."
"FINE!" Lily said and stormed out of the room. She made her way into the common room to see James with his friends. He had his head in his hands. Remus was patting him on the back. 'Oh god what have I done?'
Lily couldn't handle it. She ran out of the common room. She didn't know where she was going, but all she did know was that she needed to get away from here.
