"What is it Padfoot?" Remus asked at his friend's sudden outburst. Sirius didn't answer, he just shot of the room, summoning his wand in the process. James and Remus looked at each other and went over to the window. There was a gang of 7th year Slytherins holding Lily, Sophia and Amelia over the freezing lake and were slowly lowering them down.

"Assholes," James sneered as he grabbed his want and went out of the room, Remus at his heels.

"What do you think we should do to them, Lucious?" one of the boys asked. He was holding Lily with his wand.

"Drop them of course," he smirked. "Unless they want to help me with something 'hard'."

"In your fucking dreams Malfoy!" Sophia shouted. The boy who was holding her lowered her closer to the water.

"Let's take them into the forest," Nacrissa suggested as she trotted down to the bank with her friends, Bellatrix Black (sp? Dracos' aunt person) and Hannah Parkinson, "Or we could just feed them to the Giant squid."

"Excellent idea, babe!" Lucious laughed.

"Don't even think about it!" a voice sounded. The 7th years dressed in silver and green looked over and saw Sirius, James and Remus.

"I don't have to think to hurt a mudblood." Lucious sneered. "A thousand ideas come to my mind right now." The boys were ticked off, especially James. They looked at one another and looked at the girls floating in the air and they nodded.

"ACCIO!" the boys cried and all of sudden, the girls were being shot through the air and landed in the arms of one of the boys.

"What the fuck! That spell isn't supposed to work like that." Nacrissa screeched.

"That just shows how dumb you are." Lily giggled silently as Sirius released her. Sophia had landed in James arms and Amelia in Remus arms.

"Hydrus!" Amelia yelled and all the Slytherins were bombarded with buckets of water that randomly appeared in the air. Sophia and Lily started to giggle like mad and were joined by Amelia.

"I think we'd better get out of here." Remus suggested and took off, Sophia right after him.

"He's always right," Amelia stated and the rest of them ran after them. Once in the school, they slowed down.

"Thanks for helping us." Lily said as she gave James a peck on the cheek, Sophia and Amelia did it to their boyfriends.

"No problem." The boys answered in union.

"Hey, do you guys want to come over to swim later?" Lily asked. "Our tub is a swimming pool."

"Awesome! I'm in." the 2 other girls agreed. Lily looked at Remus and Sirius and they nodded.

"Okay…come by in about an hour." James stated. And with that, they separated. They were silent all the way back. When they got back to their common room they headed up to their own rooms. Lily went through all of her suits and pulled out a nice black one with a red rose. It was a bikini and it tied around her neck and back. She heard the water being turned on in the other room so she snuck to the door and opened it a crack, getting a good view of James muscular chest. "Lily, you can come in here you know." She squeaked and opened the door and walked in.

"How'd you know I was there?"

"You can't sneak up very well."

"Yeah, yeah…" she playfully glared at him. He just smirked.

"Wanna swim…Just the two of us? Until they get here?"

"Sure." She smiled and was about to dip her toe into the water when two arms encircled her waist. He picked her up, backed away and then took a running jump into the water, Lily still in his arms. "James!" she squealed as they hit the water. He let go of her and surfaced. "That was mean."

"I'm sorry." He pouted. "Anyway you can forgive me?" he asked with the puppy dog pout.

"Maybe I can think of a way." She smiled, as she got closer to him. He grinned as she got closer and ran a hand through his hair, making it spike up a little.

"I think I know what you're thinking of."

"If you didn't, you'd have to be pretty dumb."

"Which I'm not."

"Whatever you say," Lily giggled as she was now pressed up against him. He took his chance and wrapped a strong arm around her petite form. Their lips were inches apart when they heard a loud bang. "What was that!"

"Sirius loves to make a big entrance," James informed her.

"A scary one as well," Lily mumbled against his chest. "Why'd you give him the password anyway?"

"He's my bestfriend, what do you expect?" he said softly as Lily detangled herself from here boyfriend as the door opened.

"Cannonball!" Sirius shouted as he ran from the door into the pool, causing Lily to dart towards James so not to get hit.

"Sorry about him." Remus stated as he picked up his towel and placed the towels on the counter.

"Lily isn't used to him, that's all." Amelia said as she slipped her robe off and went to the side of the tub and Sophia did the same. "Well I see you and James are already settled.

"Obviously," Lily said as Sirius rose from the water below. He came up behind James and dunked him.

"I am KING OF THE POOL!" he screamed. "AHHH!" he screamed again as he was being flipped backward.

"That'll show him." James smirked as he came back up to the surface.

"You guys going to come in or what?" Lily asked as Sophia and Amelia just sat there, swishing their feet in the water.

"When we're good and ready." Sophia replied. Lily rolled her eyes and glanced at Remus whom had his wand pointed to the girls and had a small smile on his face. Lily bit her lip from giggling and pretended to be very interested in the dunking that was taking place with her boyfriend and his bestfriend.

"Nuotata già," he whispered and Sophia and Amelia were thrown into the pool.

"REMUS!" Sophia screeched while Amelia floated to the surface.

"Yes?" he said with an innocent look, but his eyes were laughing. Sophia just glared at him and swam to the farthest corner. Remus's eyes lost their laughter and were replaced by slight sadness. "Soph?" he questioned as he went over to her and slid in and made her face him.

"I think we should leave those two alone," Amelia suggested as she corralled the males to the other side so Remus and Sophia could have some privacy.

"What do you want Remus?" Sophia spat in a whisper.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it to be mean, I did it to have a little fun, I'm sorry, Please forgive me Sophia, please…" he apologized in a soft voice. Sophia looked into his eyes and gave him a half smile.

"Why'd you do it?"

"I thought it would be funny.. I'm sorry again," Remus said as he drew little circles in the water. Sophia looked him in the eye and sighed slightly.

"Stop saying sorry all the time."

"Well I am sorry, forgive me?"

"Of course." Sophia smiled as she kissed him lightly on the lips. She looked over and saw her friends… they looked like they weren't listening, but she knew they were. "Okay, shows over people.. lets have some fun now!" James, Sirius and Remus looked at each other.

"Don't even think about it, guys." Lily stated as she saw the look.

"Think about what?" Sirius said innocently.

"We weren't thinking about anything." Remus stated.

"Honest," James said. Lily looked at him and swam over.

"Are you sure you're honest, James?" she asked in a seductive voice. She could feel him quiver.

"No?"

"Too easy," Lily smiled as she buffed her nails on her skin. James looked at her and splashed her with water. That little splash caused a war, girls against boys. After about 2 hours, everyone was all pruney.

"I look like a prune!" Sophia moaned as she got out and grabbed a towel, as did Amelia and Lily.

"Yeah I know, same here." Lily added as she grabbed her wand and dried her hair. "I'm like wicked hungry."

"Lets get some clothes on, than we can go to the Great Hall." Amelia said.

"But you look nice enough in that suit," Sirius commented.

"Dunk him." Amelia said as James inched closer to his friend and dunked him.

"Let's get out of here," Lily laughed as she led the girls too her own room to get changed…
