************************************************************************
The next mourning Harry awoke to find him self being hugged from behind. For a moment he snuggled into the person behind him, but then remembered where he was and WHO it was and made a quick roll away, landing on the floor with a loud thud. He jumped up, not wanting to wake his new found friends, and crept quietly towards the bathroom to brush his teeth. After getting ready in the bathroom, Harry walked back to the dorm and commenced to change into his school robes. As he was doing this he heard someone move from James's and Sirius's bed. He quickly finished pulling on his robes and decided to go down to the common room to wait for his friends so they could go to breakfast.
Sitting down in a comfy fluffy chair by the fire, he started to think about things that had happened in the last 24 hours. 'Wow, this is so weird, just imagine, im growing up with my dad! This is so cool! But I hope my parents in the regular time aren't too worried.' He thought sinking deeper in to the squishy chair. Just then Remus and Sirius stumbled sleepily down stairs. Harry stood up looking at his to friends.
"Hey you guys, where's James and Peter?"
"They are upstairs and James said for us to go to breakfast without them." Replied Sirius.
"Yea, let's go, I'm starving." Said Remus smiling at Harry and heading for the Portrait hole. They clambered out of the portrait and walked together to the Great Hall for breakfast. It was rather eventful. They talked a lot, especially about the quidditch tryouts coming up that Friday for the Gryffindor team. Remus wasn't really into the sport, but Harry and Sirius were. Sirius wanted to try for a beater, and so did Harry, he couldn't think of something more fun then whacking a bludger at someone u hated on the other team, that would be such a rush! Sirius said James was interested in Seaker, which Harry thought would be very cool. After a few more minutes, they all received their schedules. By this time James and Peter had joined them. They all had the same classes, and today their schedule was first, Defense Against The Dark Arts, with Professor Tuskino, after that, they had double Herbology with Professor Sprout, and finally that day Potions, with Professor Shields. (A/N: for those characters such as professors and any other people I need in this fic that haven't already been talked about in one of the real Harry Potter books, I create my own professor of anyone else. You will find that I use mostly Sailor Moon and other anime names ...)
Remus, being the book worm that he was, decided to go to the library before their first class so he could be 'extra' prepared. Sirius suggested that they go ask Madam Hooch for practice brooms, so they could start getting ready for the quidditch try outs.
"Sounds good," said James.
"I'll go with Remus to the library. I don't like quidditch much." Said Peter standing up.
"Ok, let's go then." Remus stood with the rest of them and they left the great hall together. Harry, James, and Sirius went to find Madam Hooch while Remus and Peter headed towards the library.
"I don't know HOW they can study before we have even had a class, what a drag!" exclaimed Sirius.
"Yea sounds pretty boring, but I always say, Whatever floats your boat!" James smiled.
"Well you have to give them some credit, I mean it shows what a good student Remus really is!" Harry said feeling , for only a moment, that he should have gone with Remus. 'yea but if I wanna play quidditch I better start practicing.' And with that he said nothing.
After wandering around for a while, they found Madam Hooch walking towards the Great Hall.
"Hey professor Hooch!" called out James.
Madam Hooch turned around and walked over to them. "What can I do for you boys?"
"We were, err, wondering if we could have some practice brooms. We want to try out for quidditch, and we were hoping to start practicing for the tryouts.
"Well I guess that'd be alright, but you must return them to the broom lockers when you finish with them." She said smiling. "Now if you'll excuse me I have to go talk to Dumbledore about a student who's managed to hex him self purple."
"Hex him self purple?" asked Sirius cracking up. "Can't be too good at magic if u can manage that!"
"Yea, well shall we start practicing?" asked James.
"Yup"
They headed to the broom lockers and got 3 Shooting Star three hundreds. They trekked out to the quidditch pitch and commenced in practice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An hour later James, Harry, and Sirius walked back in after a good quidditch practice. Sirius and Harry had practiced hitting a bludger at each other, then hitting it back; while James had been chasing the Snitch over and over again.
They deposited their brooms in the broom closet, took a quick shower in the changing room, and headed to the library to get Remus.
When they walked into the library they found Remus and Peter sitting at a table reading: The Big Book of Curses and Counter Curses.
"Oh hi, how was your little practice session?" Peter looking up.
"It was fine, but if you two don't get your butts up we are going to be late for DADA!" Sirius said in a mocking way.
"Fine, let's go." Remus and Peter stood up, returned the book to the shelf, and walked out the door with James, Sirius, and Harry. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once in their DADA classroom, they took 5 seats next to each other in the back room. Remus next to Harry, then Peter, James, and Sirius at the end. A few minutes later their professor walked in.
"Hello everyone, I'm professor Tuskino. This year we will cover basic curses and counter curses. Before I begin, I have to get you something to practice on, please excuse me." She said walking into her office in the back of the room.
"Wow, look at her!" exclaimed Sirius. "She's a total babe! What is she, 25?" he asked.
"I don't think she was that pretty." Stated Remus.
"How can you NOT think she's hot? I mean LOOK at her! Harry, you think she's hot don't you?" asked James.
"Well, err. No not really."
Just then professor Tuskino walked back in with carrying a box filled to the top in what looked like green bladders.
"Eww gross what are those!?" Peter said in disgust.
"These, class, are special spell indicators. You use a spell on them and they tell you if it would've had the effect desired on an actual wizard or witch." She stated smiling.
"But how do they manage that?" inquired Remus, always hungry for knowlage.
"That is not a question of which I have an answer too. Not all magical items have certain ways they work, they just do. I suppose if you REALLY want to know you could ask Dumbledore, but even that's a long shot." She said looking slightly perturbed at being asked a question she couldn't answer.
"Oh right, sorry professor." Remus blushed slightly.
"Not to worry, now here everyone get in a group of 5, and one to each group, let's see that means we need um, 7."
Everyone shuffled around getting into various groups. Of course Harry, Sirius, James, Remus, and Peter were together.
"Ok everyone take your Magical Indicators." She levitated one to each group before tapping the black board, on which appeared the instructions.
They were too practice the Conjuctivitis Curse. They were told this was used to blind a foe.
Harry tried it out first. "Conjuctivitium!" he called out tapping the Magical Indicator. It glowed red for a second and then sputtered out. The magical item made a sound that sounded like a big fart. "Err, what's that mean?" he asked as professor Tuskino walked by.
"That means that you didn't perform the curse correctly. Remember, swish and flick Harry." She said moving on to the next group.
James, then Sirius, then Peter all tried it, all getting the fart sound out of the ugly thing.
"Geez how can ANYONE do this its so annoying!" exclaimed Peter.
"Conjuctivitium!" Remus said the incantation. The ugly thing glowed red then glowed a bright blue and made a chiming sound.
"Um is that good?" asked James.
"Yes, I've read about these, the sputter out when it's done wrong and make that odd noise, but when you've done it correctly they glow blue and chime. Quite fascinating I think." Stated Remus looking very pleased with him self.
"Remus you're making us look bad!" complained Sirius in mock anger.
Harry giggled catching Remus's eyes and winking.
After about an hour the class ended and they headed to the Great Hall for lunch. After lunch, they still had Herbology and Potions to get threw(dunno how to spell!) Though they were all glad for the break.
After lunch they walked to the green houses together, having a rather uneventful Herbology lesson. After that they walked to the dungeons for potions. When they got there they had a substitute, for Professor Shields had been out on business for Dumbledore that day and wasn't due to return until tomorrow. They had a free period to do their homework.
Now after dinner and back in the common room, Remus and Harry were playing a game of Wizards chess. Harry was loosing pathetically.
"But I mean really, couldn't we have done SOMETHING in potions today that was so boring!" Remus complained.
"Yea it was maybe it'll be better next time." Harry said smiling.
"I sure hope so"
"You guys, we're pretty tired, we're going to go to bed, its getting late anyway, see you tomorrow!" Sirius, James, and Peter tromped up stairs.
After finishing their game, it was now 10:00. "Remus I'm pretty tired too, can we go to bed now?" whined Harry.
"Ok, but I want to take a shower first." Said Remus walking towards the portrait hole. "I'm going to use the prefect bathroom, James got the password and I've been looking forward to a nice bath all day." He said. "Want to join me?" he asked almost blushing.
"Err, sure" Harry said. He wasn't very comfortable with taking a bath with another boy, but he didn't want to hurt Remus's feelings so he agreed.'
The two boys walked to the bathroom together. When they got there, Remus whispered 'fluffy bubbles' and the door appeared in the wall. They walked in and were amazed at what they saw.
MUA HAHAHAHAHA IM EVIL! I'm leaving u JUST before the fluffy bath scene (nothing TOO Sirius(pun intended) cuz they r still 11 but fluff is fine!) now what do u think, should they find out they like eachother this soon, of just get little hints and flirt a bit, its your choice, but I warn you if you don't put what u want in ur review I will go ahead with whatever I wanna do!! Well I g2g now, plz review, also hope you liked it!!!
