"Come on guys, let's go." James called to his friends who were in the
quidditch pitch on brooms. They decided since the girls didn't want to play
with them (hehe) they would go to their "secret pad" which was located
through a passage in the Whomping Willow.
They first found out about this place from Remus, they saw him sneaking
there once, on a full moon. When he saw them, he promised he'd show 'em
around the next day and that he wanted to be alone, they followed him
anyway. They found out his secret, that he was a werewolf. Remus was so
scared he hid from them for the rest of the day. When they finally caught up
with him, they convinced him that they would never stop being friends. Then
they became animagi. They had just learned that recently that year. Anyways-
"Sure Prongs, wait a minute, I think I can knock Remus off his broom!"
Sirius called back. Remus swerved and Sirius missed. They got down and
headed toward the Whomping Willow, Peter following closely behind but wasn't
as fast as the others. They were athletic, but he was short stubby and
chubby. They headed over to the tree...

"Hey Lily,"
asked Gin as they gathered around the tree. "Who gets to
prod
the knot this time?" Lily thought.
"Well, I think we can use Eve's pet rat to do it." They looked
at Eve
expectantly." She pulled back.
"But Mandy doesn't
want to do it!"
"Fine, we'll
do it the old fashion way."
Gin got out her wand, and said "Wingardeum Levosia". A Stick
flew into the
air, she pointed her wand at the on the tree, and the stick
flew over and
pushed it. Then the tree froze, and they slipped through a small
passage on
the side. They walked through the halls and past old rickety
door, and
finally into a bedroom at the end of the hall. They sat
down on one of the
ripped couches stowed in the bedroom of the shrieking shack.
Eve bounced
merrily on it.
"So," said Eve,
as she bounced higher. "Who are you guys going with to
the
ball in Hogsmeade this weekend?"
"What ball?"
Lily asked. She hadn't heard of any ball. "You know," She
said
impatiently. "The one EVERYONE has been talking about!"
"What are you
talking about?" Snapped Gin. "We weren't talking about
it!"
"Yes well, the
people paying attention know about it! It's a Christmas
dance, on Christmas, that's why dress robes were on our lists!
I hope Remus
asks me!" Now it was Gins turn to look at her, mouth open. She
looked as if
she wanted to blurt something about making fun of her, but Lily
got there
first.
"You like Remus??
Oh god, you've all fallen for those stupid boys! I
guess
I'll have to like Peter now..." She said, almost seriously.
"Actually, there
is James." Said Gin matter-o-factly.
"Yeah," Eve
enthused. "He's sweet, he's nice, he's charming, he's
GORGEOUS,
he's smart-"
"Yeah, he's
also a jerk, conceited, big headed..." Lily continued, now
counting off fingers. "He might be some, I said SOME, of those
things you
said but, I dunno. He hates me. He really hates me, and you
can't do a thing
about that.... Besides, I hate him too, so it works out perfectly,
and it
can stay that way. Besides, I vow never to like a guy who cares
more about
himself than anyone else." Ginny and Eve sighed ruefully.
"I hear voices."
Said Sirius, when they reached the hallway toward the
bedroom. "I'll change to see what it is, you guys stay back."
They nodded,
and Sirius turned into a black shaggy dog. But to any girl,
he was adorable.
He walked into the room cautiously, and growling. Lily jumped
at the growl.
"Oh he's so
cute!" Squealed Gin. She kneeled down next to the dog and
gave
it a kiss on the nose. First, its features went from fierce
to sweet, then
his legs went stiff, and he fell over. Gin laughed. "Look he
plays dead!"
The boys heard
some squeals and decided to investigate. They peered into
the room to see three girls playing with a blissful shaggy black
dog, who
was jumping from this place to that as they chased him. James
turned away in
disgust. "God Sirius!' He muttered to Remus. "What the hell
are they doing
here?? This is our hide out, Remus, do you reckon Sirius invited
them?"
Remus shrugged and looked back in.
"I think we
should get him outtalk there, before he loses it and STAYS a
dog." He winked at James and stepped in.
"Hey Snuffles!"
Remus cooed toward the dog. The dog stopped running
abruptly and its ears drooped... "Come boy," he repeated and
whistled. The
dog glared and trotted over.
"Remus!" Gasped
Eve. "What are you doing here? This is our hide out!"
"Actually,"
said James, stepping in, "this is our hide out."
"No it's not!"
Declared Lily.
"Evans is here
too? Oh cripes, get out!" He demanded.
"Make me!"
"I don't make
girls, I play 'em." He replied hotly. Lily got fired up
now.
She took a step and was so close to James's face their noses
were touching.
"Alright then
Potter," she said. "My team, against yours, we beat you,
which we will, we get the shack, you beat us, and you get the
shack."
"Wait, we just
get the shack? No, its already ours, we wouldn't gain, if
we
win, we get the shack, and you go blonde." Lily opened her mouth
for a
moment in surprise, then zipped it back up.
"Fine, but if
we win, you go blonde AND curly." She challenged. His eyes
wavered for a second.
"Okay, here,
at midnight, a duel, you and me, pick your second." He
instructed.
"Gin." She said.
Eve sighed with relief.
"Peter." said
James. Remus's mouth dropped.
"What the hell
James? You know he sucks at dueling! God what is he gonna
do, eat the spells? The great wizards know he would..."
"Hey!" Said
Peter from behind. Lily jumped, again. They had forgotten
that
he was there.
"Peter," he
repeated. Remus sighed, defeated and jealous. Snuffles
barked
angrily.
"Hush Snuffles."
Remus demanded. Sirius growled at him.
"Is this your
dog Remus?" Gin asked, changing the subject.
"Umm, yeah..."
he said uncertainly.
"Cool, can I
borrow him." Gin asked. At this Snuffles started Jumping up
and down like crazy. James and Remus looked at each other and
laughed.
Gin frowned
and pouted, Gin hated it when she didn't get a joke. "What?"
"Where would
you keep him?" Remus chuckled.
"In my dorm,
where else?"
Now the dog was doing 360's and jumps. He looked rather hilarious.
Remus and
James shook their heads.
"What's wrong?"
Gin asked.
"He's never
seen the inside of a girls room." James explained, grabbing
Sirius by the neck.
"We gotta go
and figure out something else mean and nasty to do to
Tiger,
sorry Lils." Explained Remus, backing out the door. "Come you
horny little
dog, I knew I should have had you fixed..."
The girls laughed
at the remark.
"I think," said
Lily, after the boys were out of sight, "I have an
idea..."
