Jemma POV
I had always been fascinated by the rain. I just loved staring out into the that the rain pulled down, and looking out into the thick mist the rain caused. The rain made life seem perfect, it reminded me of home when the rain brought a sense of fun and laughter, my brothers and sisters and I would pull on our wellies and dance around in the cascading rain, splashing each other and having fun. As I sighed at the happy memories an idea occurred to me.
I turned to Lily, pulling back her hair and whispering in her ears, she smiled at me flashing her perfect white teeth, as soon as I was done explaining she turned to Phoebe and relayed the plan. Phoebe giggled as we slid out of our seats.
"May I ask where you're going ladies" Sirius eyed us suspiciously as we turned to walk out the great hall.
Flicking her long hair over her shoulder Lily purred "follow us and find out baby", curiosity taking over them the marauders minus peter who was still digging into the array of deserts followed closely at our heels as we walked out the great hall.
"where are we going" probed Remus, who was chorused by James and Sirius, giggling we carried on walking ignoring the lads constant questions.
When we got to the main entrance of the castle which lead out onto the courtyard we stopped, turning to face the lads "anyone for dancing in the rain?" I asked.
The boys looked around in confusion "what?" James said puzzled.
"your not seriously thinking of going out in that rain are you? You will catch pneumonia" a baffled Remus concluded as he clocked onto our plans.
"I think you will find were deadly serious, come on where's you sense of adventure and fun" phoebe teased running her hand down Remus's arm making him blush.
"Looks like it's just us then" I laughed, grabbing Lily and Phoebe's hands as I pulled them into the rain spinning around as we went.
Sirius POV
I stood in astonishment as I watched the girls prance around seductively in the rain, splashing each other and laughing uncontrollably. Jemma's hair stuck to her face and her clothes were sodden, as she continued to jump in a puddle splashing water in a twirling Phoebe's face- somehow the sight was aluring. Suddenly a new sound filled the air as the girls started singing as the danced it was from a muggle musical I had once seen "SINGING IN THE RAIN" they bellowed "WHAT A GLOURIOUS FELLING, IM HAP- HAP- HAPPY AGAIN".
"Why are we just standing her" I questioned my friends "we the marauders, chief pranksters and funsters are stood here like dull Slytherins why the girls are out there having all the fun."
"That my dear Padfoot is a good question" smirked James as he ran out into the rain waving his hands around and jumping into a puddle splashing Jemma, as me and Remus ran to join them, we danced around like lunatics singing at the top of our voices and enjoying the cooling sensation of the rain water against our skin.
It was in that moment that I saw it, Lily and James, Remus and Phoebe, Jemma and ... me we were all perfect for each other. Meant to be.
Jumping into the biggest possible puddle simultaneously the girls sent a mountain of water pouring down on us, initiating the biggest (and most likely only ever) puddle war. Girls vs. boys. Marauders vs. the three most perfect girls for us in school – if only they knew it.
Remus's POV
As the rain started to subside and the girls surrendered, we headed back in doors laughing and joking.
Beside me Phoebe shivered. I looked at her worryingly, "are you alright?" I asked, as I noticed her angelic features tainted blue from the cold "you look really cold."
"I'm fine" she reassured me "just a bit cold, once we get back to the dorm and I can dry off I will be fine" she promised.
"That was so fun" boomed Sirius as he shook his black wet hair out like the dog he was.
"It really was" squealed Lily as she came up behind Sirius looping her arm through his. Resulting in a wry look from Sirius and Jemma trying to conceal an outburst of giggles in the crook of her arm.
We parted from the girls in the common room as they left for their rooms to get dried of, I watched as phoebe ascended the stairs coughing roughly into her hand, her body trembling as she walked unsteadily up the stairs, her body arching with each spluttering timid cough.
It was 2 o'clock in the morning and I tossed relentlessly, my mind refusing o turn off as it replayed the day's events in a continuous cycle, in the end my mind wondered to the frail looking Phoebe. In the bed beside me Sirius's growling snore erupted echoing in my ears as I rolled over sitting up. Pushing back my hair from my eyes, i switched on the light above my head, pulling out one of my many tattered browning books, i settled back into my gold and red quilts to read my head lulling as I read...
The next morning I awoke to the sound of howling laughter coming from the end of my bed, i could feel the soft pages of the book i had been reading pressed securely against my cheek. Lazily i opened my eyes glaring at my snorting friends stood at the foot of my bed, carefully as to not rip the already worn away pages i slid the book off my face, revealing a large red indent on my left cheek.
"haha" the scoffed.
Smirking I looked James and Sirius "ready for a day of Lily loving fun?" I asked, across the room I could hear Peter laughing into his pillow, I smiled widely at my witty remark.
Both of their face's fell, much to my satisfaction, they may be my best friends but they could be damn annoying and really fun to wind up.
"Not funny" they both groaned in unison.
"Come on I'm hungry" Sirius remarked pulling on his robes and grabbing his wand.
"Alright give me a minute to get dressed" I said, pulling myself out of bed searching for some clothes. Once ready we wondered down to breakfast together, as the staircases twisted and turned my mind wandered to Phoebe and seeing her breathtaking smile over breakfast.
