The two marauders were shocked to say the least, they hadn't exactly expected this when they signed up for tuesday night guard duty. The first thing they had saw was Harry climbing out his window. "Ummm . . .Remus? Should Harry be doing that?"

"obviously not you mutt"

". . . Well I'm not the responsible one sooo. . . . "

"Well luckily for you Dumbledore didn't actually say he had any boundaries, so all you have to do, is make sure he doesn't do anything particularly stupid"

"Its Harry! That won't be exactly hard"

"He is a marauders son though padfoot, don't forget that."

-30 minutes later-

"Yep….. definitely a marauders son"

They carried on watching through a window, surveying the scene of a party that could rival the gryffindor end of term celebrations. There was a boy who looked about Harry's age twerking on the pool table in his boxers while a throng of drunk girls cheered him and every now and again Harry himself came into view grinding with a red haired girl. In one word: mayhem.

"Why do I suddenly feel like I don't know my godson?" Sirius said staring through the glass looking dumbstruck.

There was a slight pause then, Moony smirked "Dumbledore's gonna have a heart attack"


Awaking in the morning to a warm body curled at his side he groaned at the pounding in his head. The sun was streaming through the window sitting up he watched Quinn slip back into her rumpled clothes. "Leaving so soon?"

"sorry, but my dads coming home from his night shift soon"

"oh right, wanna have me walk you home?" she smirked but shook her head "Don't worry I can look after myself"

"fair enough….. And Quinn?"

"Hmmm?"

"This might sound harsh but this was a no strings kind of thing, yeah?"

"Oh thank god I thought you were gonna be the clingy sort"

Harry laughed not at all hurt "ditto"

"Anyway, I need to run"

"Same" Harry sighed, pulling his hoodie over his hair, and glancing into a mirror on the wall, he looked surprisingly sharp for the nights events.

They went downstairs together dodging a mound of sick, as soon as they reached the ground floor, the scene of the party was chaotic to say the least, beer cans, bottles and plastic cups were spread across every surface and there were still a few people asleep on the floor including Luke who only had his boxers on. Shaking his head jokingly he slipped out the door and onto the street where the bright newly risen sun did nothing for his hangover. He paced up the pavement cutting through alleys to save time he spent the time thinking over the night he had, had underage sex and had a load of alcohol but he didn't feel particularly guilty it was liberating being in control for once. He breathed a sigh of relief as he reached the space under my bedroom window. My head felt close to exploding now but the climb up only seemed marginally harder. He almost collapsed on his bed after chugging almost a litre of water, he felt like crap but he might be able to get a hour in.


He was awoken much to early by a tapping on his window he rolled out his bed still half asleep he was exhausted but his hangover was practically gone, he assumed it was down to his magic. Fiddling clumsily with the tie around the owls leg he pulled the letter off and let it fly away, with an irritable hoot at Harry's slowness. It had the official hogwarts seal, this piqued harry's interest, cracking the seal, he unfolded the parchment.
