CHAPTER 2
James, Sirius, Remus and Lily at the Potter`s
Sirius:I´m bored (he was sprawled out on the floor)
James:Yeah...me too, since we left Hogwarts, we haven´t played too many
pranks.
Remus:You have to count Sirius´s pizza order.
James:Yeah but also since Lily is pregnant,altough it`s been only fifthteen
days she has been even more bossy.
Lily:James Potter!!! you mean that I bore you?!!!!
James:No honey, of course not...It´s just that...
Sirius:You aren´t as fun as you used to be?
James/Lily/Remus:Shut up Padfoot!!!!
Lily:Okey James since i´m not as fun as I used to be tomorrow I´ll give you a
great prank, and...Sirius will have to do it, since it concerns Rita Sketter, you
know the crazy woman that used to work with Paddy here, the one that has a
crush on him since she first saw him?
Sirius:Lils don`t call me Paddy I sound too feminine!!! and what did I do to you
woman?! why do I have to do it?
Lily:You´re the one that she has a crush on, besides did you saw the stupid
thing she wrote about James being an Auror?
Sirius:Okey I´ll do it for Prongsie.
Lily:Okey, I´ll give you the list tomorrow I´m going to my room now.
James: Hon, I´ll be up in a minute, okey?
Lily:Okey baby (they kiss)
Sirius/Remus:Ewwww! people here!
The next Day:
Lily enters the room where the three man were and she handed a copy of a list
to each of them, they start to read it and they snort on their tea, coffee and in
Sirius case chocolate milk.
The list said:
1. Guard your plate with fork and knife and act like you'll stab anyone who
reaches for it, including the waiter.
2. Collect salt shakers from all the tables in the restaurant, and balance them
in a tower formation on your table.
3. Wipe your nose on your date's sleeve. Twice.
4. Read a newspaper during the meal, ignoring your date.
5. Twitch spastically. If asked about it, pretend you don't know what she's
talking about.
6. Every five minutes, circle your table with your arms outstretched while
making airplane sounds.
7. Ask for crayons to color the placemat. This is especially fun in fancy places
with linen tablecloths.
8. When ordering, inquire if the restaurant has any live food.
9. Without asking, eat off your date's plate. Eat more of her food than she
does.
10. Drool.
11. Talk with your mouth full and spray crumbs.
12. Scarf down everything on your plate in 30 seconds.
13. Ask the people at the next table if you can taste their food.
14. Order something nasty for your date. Act offended if he refuses to eat it.
15. Ask for a seat away from the windows where you have a good view of all
exits and can keep your back to the wall. Act nervous.
16. Lick your plate. Offer to lick your date's.
17. Fill your pockets with sugar packets, salt and pepper shakers, silverware,
floral arrangements-anything that isn't bolted down.
18. Slide under the table. Take your plate with you.
19. Bring 20 or so candles with you. During the meal, arrange them in a circle
around the table. Chant.
20. Insist the waiter cuts your food into tiny pieces.
21. Feed imaginary friends or dolls you brought with you.
22. Shoot hoops with shrimp into her water glass.
23. Every time your date opens her mouth, interrupt and start a new
conversation.
24. After kissing her, explain you're doing a study on the spread of
mononucleosis.
**********************
The day passed by, Sirius had already called Rita and they were having a date
that night at seven o´clock. It was now six fiftyfive.
Remus:Your date is in five minutes; aren't you going to get ready?'
(Sirius was reading some Muggle magazine while playing loud Beatles music
on the record-player that he had brought from home.)
Sirius:I was born ready.
James:Oh, don't give us those sorts of lines. Why do you listen to that old
stuff anyway?
Sirius:It's not old.Besides, it's really good:
Lily:Yeah, he`s right.
(Remus walked over to the record-player and took the stylus off of the record.)
Sirius:Hey! I was listening to that!'
James:You need to get ready. I don't think that Rita will be very happy with
you if you show up late and in your condition. Have you even brushed your
hair at all today?.
Sirius:Look who´s talking! and no, I haven't, and that`s the point'
(he said resignedly, getting lazily off his bed and walking over to the mirror.
He swiftly ran his hand through his hair in one motion, then went to find his
cloak.)
Remus: Is that really all you're going to do?'
Sirius:Yep, I'm perfect, oh and Lils do you have any chocolate chip cookies?
Lily:Yeah, here. (hands him a cookie, he eats it)
Sirius:Now I am perfect (he smiles, he was right but the chocolate chips in his
teeth erased all that perfection)
Lily/James/Remus:Snorts and rolling on the floor
He then bid goodbye to the guys, he apparates in front of his date.
Rita:So,-she said coldly-, you finally showed up.I thought that you weren't
coming.'
Sirius:I'm right on time,-he declared, pointing to his watch-.
Rita:You were supposed to be early.-crossing her arms-
Sirus:(getting annoyed).I showed up on time. I told you seven o'clock, not six
forty-five, not seven-o-five.Can we just leave now?
James, Sirius, Remus and Lily at the Potter`s
