Chapter 8: Payback, Tango's, and Troubles
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
~*~
"So are you going to be ok?" Bree asked.
"Yeah I'll get over it. It hurt more when he said it because I would never picture him saying it." I replied.
"I'm so sorry. I have no idea why he said that. Considering the fact that every time someone calls you that he gets angry." Katie pointed out.
"That's true." Ashley said.
"So what happened after I left?" I asked.
"I yelled at James." Bree said smiling.
"Thanks, Bree." I replied, "Thanks all of you guys. For everything!"
"No prob." Everyone said.
"You know, James is still sitting on that couch." Michelle said looking out the door.
"Are you serious?" I asked.
"Yeah, take a look." We all crept out of our room.
"Oh my god he is." I said.
We all headed back into the room.
"Why doesn't he forget about it?" I asked.
"I think he'd only forget about it if you told him to." Katie said.
"I'm kind of tired. I think I'm going to go to bed. Night!" I said getting up.
"I'm not its only eight o'clock!" Katie said.
"Let's go downstairs." Michelle replied. So they all headed downstairs.
But I didn't go to sleep. I continued to read James' journal.
Sept. 14
I'm now in my second year. Fun!
June 9
Sorry I didn't write. Tomorrow we go home. Lily hates me even more(. Bye!
I don't get it. 'Lily hates me even more(.' Is that good or bad? Oh well. I let it slip my mind as I read on.
Sept. 29
I am now in my third year. I've recently found out that Remus was a werewolf. I can't believe he didn't tell us earlier! We are working on becoming anamagi. We are having problems though considering that it's illegal. I have to go. Bye!
"Oh my God!" I whispered. I wonder if they ever became anamagi. The thoughts scared me so I shut the journal and put it away.
~*~
The next morning I got up really early. I got ready and went down into the common room. James was asleep on the couch I decided to get back at him. I silently turned his hair pink. Ahh revenge is sweet. After I was done turning his hair the brightest pink I could I nudged him in the ribs with my foot very hard.
"Hey." I said.
"I'm surprised you're talking to me."
"What's up?"
"After what I said to you."
"Nothing much for me."
"I mean I guess I deserve it if you never talk to me again."
"James."
"What?"
"Just don't say it again." I said smiling. But little did he know what I was smiling about. Muhahaha!
"I'm sorry." He got up and hugged me. Joy, here comes that darn light again.
Upstairs:
"I thought we were going to kick them love birds into gear?" Ashley asked the rest of them. All the girls were at the entrance to the girls dorm along with all the boys in the entrance to the boys dorm. They were all watching our every move.
"Does this mean Bree will talk to me again so I can ask her out?" Sirius asked.
~*~
It was two weeks later and everyone was planning on going to Hogsmede.
"Bree hurry up we are going to be late!" I yelled up the stairs to the girls' dorm.
"Oh by the way. At three I am going to meet up with Sirius." Bree said coming down the stairs.
"Of Course." I joked. Bree and Sirius had been going out for the past week and a half and now I was forced to hang with the Marauders at times. Ergness.
Katie, Ashley, and Michelle were all waiting in the Great Hall for us.
"Bout time!" Michelle exclaimed.
"Sorry." Bree replied.
~*~
We went to every store and by two thirty our money bags were very light.
"Want to grab a butterbeer then go to the Shrieking Shack?" Katie asked.
"Sure." We all replied. We go out butterbeers 'to go' and started walking up the steep hiss to the Shrieking Shack.
"It's creepy!" Ashley exclaimed.
"Scared Babe?" James asked coming up from behind me followed by Sirius, Remus, and Peter.
"Hey Bree!" Sirius said walking up and kissing Bree on the cheek.
"Hey." She replied.
All of us stood staring at the Shrieking Shack.
"Who wants to go inside?" James asked after a couple moments of silence.
"Your crazy James we can't go in we are not allowed!" I pointed out.
"Ready to go Sirius?" Bree asked.
"No," Sirius said sensing that something good was going to happen.
"Ahh c'mon Lilikins, your not afraid are you?" he asked me.
Of course I was afraid, "No I'm not we just aren't allowed." I replied.
"Aw you take the fun out of everything." He said as everyone was watching us.
"No I don't. I could be fun and go in there but I don't want to." I stated.
"You're scared."
"Am not!"
"Am too. If you're not scared then go in."
"There's no entrance." I said looking around.
"I'll make one for you." He walked over the fence and to a window in the back. He took the board off it and opened it up.
"Come on Lils. You got your entrance." He said. I looked around at everyone. Remus' face was pale.
I turned back around.
"Is she going to do it?" Remus asked Ashley.
"Dunno," was all she said back.
I stepped over the fence. I can't believe I am doing this. But I have to prove that I can be fun.
"After you babe," James aid holding the window open.
I handed him my butterbeer and crawled in. It was dusty and every piece of furniture was ruined.
"I gotta see this!" Sirius said going to window and looking in.
James crawled in after me. He stood up and started drinking my butterbeer but I took it out of his hands.
"Cozy isn't it?" he said smiling.
I looked around and said, "Cozy wasn't the word I was thinking of."
I turned back to James but James wasn't there.
"James?" I asked loudly.
I head a scream from above me. James' scream.
"Aw crap." I said to myself.
Outside the Shrieking Shack:
"Move over Sirius I can't see!"
"I can't see either Bree."
"Who screamed?" Ashley asked.
"Cheese and Rice scoot over Sirius!"
"I'm going to get a different view," Sirius said, "Stay here!"
Sirius went to the open window and climbed in. He snuck behind lily standing there and went down another hallway. I continued up the stairs to try and find James.
"James?" I whispered as I entered a room.
He was lying on a bed. From the corner came an evil like back hug dog!
I screamed as it went into the closet. Then James rolled over and started laughing.
"This isn't a laughing matter!" I screamed at him. I heard another voice coming from the closet. Sirius stepped out laughing/
"Stop it you stupid gits!" I said throwing a ruiened pillow at them.
We were walking back up to the castle in a group. Bree and I brought up the rear talking in deep conversation.
"So I need to get back at him." I finished explaining what happened to Bree.
"I see."
"So I was thinking." I told Bree my plan. She smiled happily; I knew she would like it. We quickly caught up with everyone ready to put our plan to action.
As we were walking we spotted the new store in the distance. The Celestial Store. Full of breakable things. I glanced at Bree and we exchanged grins.
"Let's go into that store." Bree said pointing to The Celestial Store.
"Nah I hate all that divination crap. I was supposed to die last week. It's all a bunch of rubbish if you ask me." James said continuing to walk. Everyone stopped and soon James did too.
"We want to go in there. Don't you Katie, Ashley, Michelle? Bree asked giving them a look. Ashley and Michelle quickly caught on but Katie was still in her 'lifetime blonde moment'.
"I don't wanna!" Katie complained.
"Of course you do." Michelle said nudging Katie in the ribs.
"Ow that hurt." She said rubbing her side, "If it means that much to you I'll go in. But don't let me break anything."
"I want to go in," I said grinning.
"Siri-usss!" Bree said turning to Sirius. She walked up to him and laid her head on his shoulder and look up with puppy eyes, "Will you come in?"
"Only if James, Remus, and Peter go in too." Sirius said giving in.
"Jamsey wamsey, Remy Wemy, Peter weter!" Bree said skipping their direction, "Please come in."
"Fine, but quickly." James said looking at his watch.
"Ahh Jamsey wamsey doesn't wanna be late for school!" Bree said giggling.
"No I don't want to be late for dinner." He said walking in the store door. We all entered and walked around.
Ashley and Michelle went in one direction to keep Katie from breaking anything, Peter wandered off, and we got in the perfect position for our plan.
I nudged Bree who tripped Sirius who fell to the ground bumping James alond the way down. James feel right into a shelf and it toppled over and it another which hit another and so on until every shelf in the store was on the ground and glass and broken objects were all over the floor.
"I didn't do it!" Katie yelled.
"This is the time when you would say cheese and rice Bree." Sirius muttered.
Not five seconds passed when Bree yelled, "Cheese and rice you clumsy dope Sirius!"
Sirius glared at Bree. "Bloody hell settle down Sirius," I said.
"YOU!" the owner came out from the back yelling at James who was lying on a shelf, "You must pay damages!" he yelled. "I will go and total up how much you owe me!"
He walked to the back. I looked at Bree and we both looked at James and Sirius.
They glared at us lost for words. The owner came back with a furious look on his face.
"You owe me 1,008 galleons, 12 sickles, and 3 knuts."
"I don't have that much money!" James yelled.
"Then you must continue to pay it in payment. We will set up monthly bills!"
"What!?"
"You break, you pay. What is your name?"
"Not telling." James replied crossing his hands over his chest.
"James Potter." I said smiling. He just glared at me.
"Thank you Miss. Now you go to Hogwarts correct?"
"Yup. Seventh year Gryffindor." Bree said making Sirius glare too.
"Thank you kind ladies. Now out of my store!" he yelled pointing at the door.
Bree and I skipped out linking arms happily. We stopped at the Three Broomsticks for a 'congratulations' drink. We sat by the window watching to see if James and Sirius would walk past.
Sure enough Dumb and Dumber walked by.
"Here they come!" I said getting up and grabbing my half drunken butterbeer. Bree followed and we headed out the door right as they passed.
"Hey Babe." I said.
"Shut up Lily!" James spat.
"Ahh Jamsey Poo can surely dish it out but he can't take it in." I replied calmly.
"Our prank wasn't half as bad as yours. Plus its gonna cost James a fortune to pay it all off! And you told the owner his name!" Sirius yelled.
"And school." Bree said.
"And year." I added.
"And house." Bree finished.
"Drats! We should have told him his Gringotts Vault number too." I said with a disappointed look on my face.
"Shut up!" Sirius and James yelled together.
"Calm your beastish ways," Bree said.
"I was just getting you back for more than eight years of hell." I said shouting at James. Our aces were less than a foot apart. James opened his mouth then closed it.
"Think before you speak this time Jamsey." Bree said hoping he wouldn't say mudblood again.
He glared at Bree then looked back at me.
"Let's go Bree!" I said. We linked arms again and started skipping back to the castle.
"Don't forget babe patrol tonight!" I yelled over my shoulder.
~*~
"Jamsey Babe time for patrol!" I yelled up the boys staircase. I heard a door slam and saw his feet come into view.
"Sorry I'm late. I was writing a letter to my mum saying how much money i need to pay off the damages. Thanks to you I'm grounded for a month and I have to earn all that money back with chores."
"I didn't do anything! But don't worry you poor baby you'll get over it." I said leading the way to the portrait, "Oh by the way we need to plan the Quidditch dates and games and such. And there is a meeting with the Prefects tomorrow night."
"I was thinking of a lot of ideas for Quidditch." He said walking up next to me.
"We will start patrolling in the entry hall then work our way up." I said heading down the stairs and into the entry hall.
I looked around and saw smoke coming out from underneath the door to a broom closet next to the caretaker, Jeff Olsen's, office.
"What is going on here?" I asked walking up next to the door. I opened it and walked in. I heard the door close behind me. I turned around I couldn't see James' face because of the smoke but I could see his outline.
"Oops! I shut the door that locks from the inside and alomahora doesn't work. Shucks" he said in a cocky tone.
"James! I'm gonna kill you!" I yelled heading to the door and shaking the knob.
"You and me locked together in a broom closet. What will everyone think of goody good Evans now?"
"You and I now let me out! BREE ANYONE SOMEONE!" I screamed through the door for help. But no one came.
"You don't have a camera do you?" I asked. He shook his head no.
"I don't do the same prank twice."
I backed into a cabinet and James headed towards me. James fell on top of me followed by a dusty blanket and brooms. James began to scare me. Maybe I should've done that prank on him.
"James! Get off me! Don't touch me!" I yelled. After untangling ourselves we stood up and I looked at my robes that were covered in dust and were now grey.
James didn't stop though. He started walking towards me.again. His attitude really freaked me out.
I practically ran backwards into the wall with James falling on top of me once again. Unfortunately the wall that we fell into and broke was next to the caretaker's office. We tried to untangle ourselves again not noticing his presence.
"Ahem," we heard his familiar voice.
"Ah, Hi sir," I said getting up, "We were just on duty then we saw something in the, er, broom closet when we, uh, decided to, er.." I was lost for words.
"Tango." James finished.
"Yea tango." I said with uncertainty.
"Tango, eh?" Jeff asked. I had butterflies in my stomach. Was James trying to get us into trouble?
"I was a tango-er once," Jeff replied, "Won many trophies."
I turned to James and he smiled. "Want to see some pictures?" Jeff asked going through a closet.
I watched Jeff intended to look at his pictures when James grabbed me around the waist and carried me out.
"Jeez Louiez put me down."
"Sorry couldn't get your attention so we could leave."
"Tango?" I asked once we reached the third floor.
"I heard him carrying on about it to another teacher once," James said leading the way up the stairs.
We entered the common room and I saw everyone sitting on couches in couples. Bree and Sirius, Katie and Ricky, Michelle and Leo, and Ashley and Remus. Peter must've been upstairs cause he wasn't anywhere in site.
"Hey you two made up fast." I said staring at Bree while plopping down on an arm chair next to her.
We all just sat around and talked.
"Bree get me some water," Sirius said propping his feet up.
"Excuse you?" she asked raising her eyebrow.
"Oh sorry," Sirius looked around, "Anyone else want some water? Maybe you should just get some for everyone."
"Uh hun, get your own water." She said glaring at Sirius. I looked around at everyone. I saw Remus shaking his head and mutter "Bad move Padfoot. Here we go."
"But in muggle studies I learned," Remus chuckled, "that a man's woman tended to his every needs."
"Oh god Padfoot." Remus muttered again.
"I am not your woman!" Bree yelled.
"What do you mean? We're dating!" Sirius said.
"No Sirius, stop or your relationship is going to be over," Remus said not very loud.
"THAT DOESN'T MAKE ME YOUR WOMAN!" she yelled and stood up.
"But in muggle studies-"
"That was like hundreds of years ago dimwit." I cut Sirius off.
"Yea," Katie, Bree, and Ashley stood up and added.
"So are you gonna get that water?"
"You don't get it do you!?" Bree asked.
"I like toads." Katie said.
Everyone looked at her.
"It'll be ok sweetie," I said hugging her. She obviously wasn't paying attention to our 'battle of the sexes'.
"Oh my gosh! I was thinking the same thing Lil! This is like a twilight zone! Do de do de do de do de..! I can't believe you were thinking what I was thinking!" Katie said jumping up and down with delight.
"I was?" I asked confused.
"Yes! A sugar party!" She said running up the girls' staircase.
"Hey, I didn't say I like her for her brains." Ricky said sitting down.
A minute later Katie came running down the stairs with a huge basket of candy. She sat down next to Ricky and tore open her fist bag of candy.
"Maybe you shouldn't eat that Katie." Bree said knowing how Katie get when here is sugar in her system. Not before long Katie was sitting on the sofa laughing hysterically for no reason while we all continued to fight.
"Women can do anything a guy could do!" I yelled.
"No they can't." James said.
"I want some chicken!" Katie said between laughs.
"Not now Katie!" James told her.
"It's a girl's world and guys just live in it!" Michelle exclaimed.
"We could live with out girls," Sirius said.
"Really? You seriously think you guys could live with out us?" I asked.
"Sure we can," James said standing up next to Sirius.
"Oh you think you could?" Ashley asked standing next to Bree and I. Soon Michelle joined us too.
"Prove it." Michelle said.
"Course we will," James said not knowing what to expect.
"What?" Sirius asked.
"No girlfriends, no hugs, no kissing, no arms around each other, you name it." I said knowing we were going to win this bet.
"No kissing?" Sirius whimpered, "No girlfriends? James this isn't fair, you don't even have a girl friend and you are putting me and Remus through this torture!"
"You'll be fine."
"So technically we're going on strike!" Ashley said. We all smiled.
"Fine!" James yelled. But Sirius just whimpered.
"Come on girls lets go." Bree said leading the way to our dorm. Followed by Ashely, Michelle, and I.
"Coming Katie?" I asked.
"Oh yea sorry!" She said getting up, "See you tomorrow Ricky."
"Your going to see him tomorrow?"
"Yeah!" Katie said following me.
"But we're going on strike."
"I know."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
~*~
"So are you going to be ok?" Bree asked.
"Yeah I'll get over it. It hurt more when he said it because I would never picture him saying it." I replied.
"I'm so sorry. I have no idea why he said that. Considering the fact that every time someone calls you that he gets angry." Katie pointed out.
"That's true." Ashley said.
"So what happened after I left?" I asked.
"I yelled at James." Bree said smiling.
"Thanks, Bree." I replied, "Thanks all of you guys. For everything!"
"No prob." Everyone said.
"You know, James is still sitting on that couch." Michelle said looking out the door.
"Are you serious?" I asked.
"Yeah, take a look." We all crept out of our room.
"Oh my god he is." I said.
We all headed back into the room.
"Why doesn't he forget about it?" I asked.
"I think he'd only forget about it if you told him to." Katie said.
"I'm kind of tired. I think I'm going to go to bed. Night!" I said getting up.
"I'm not its only eight o'clock!" Katie said.
"Let's go downstairs." Michelle replied. So they all headed downstairs.
But I didn't go to sleep. I continued to read James' journal.
Sept. 14
I'm now in my second year. Fun!
June 9
Sorry I didn't write. Tomorrow we go home. Lily hates me even more(. Bye!
I don't get it. 'Lily hates me even more(.' Is that good or bad? Oh well. I let it slip my mind as I read on.
Sept. 29
I am now in my third year. I've recently found out that Remus was a werewolf. I can't believe he didn't tell us earlier! We are working on becoming anamagi. We are having problems though considering that it's illegal. I have to go. Bye!
"Oh my God!" I whispered. I wonder if they ever became anamagi. The thoughts scared me so I shut the journal and put it away.
~*~
The next morning I got up really early. I got ready and went down into the common room. James was asleep on the couch I decided to get back at him. I silently turned his hair pink. Ahh revenge is sweet. After I was done turning his hair the brightest pink I could I nudged him in the ribs with my foot very hard.
"Hey." I said.
"I'm surprised you're talking to me."
"What's up?"
"After what I said to you."
"Nothing much for me."
"I mean I guess I deserve it if you never talk to me again."
"James."
"What?"
"Just don't say it again." I said smiling. But little did he know what I was smiling about. Muhahaha!
"I'm sorry." He got up and hugged me. Joy, here comes that darn light again.
Upstairs:
"I thought we were going to kick them love birds into gear?" Ashley asked the rest of them. All the girls were at the entrance to the girls dorm along with all the boys in the entrance to the boys dorm. They were all watching our every move.
"Does this mean Bree will talk to me again so I can ask her out?" Sirius asked.
~*~
It was two weeks later and everyone was planning on going to Hogsmede.
"Bree hurry up we are going to be late!" I yelled up the stairs to the girls' dorm.
"Oh by the way. At three I am going to meet up with Sirius." Bree said coming down the stairs.
"Of Course." I joked. Bree and Sirius had been going out for the past week and a half and now I was forced to hang with the Marauders at times. Ergness.
Katie, Ashley, and Michelle were all waiting in the Great Hall for us.
"Bout time!" Michelle exclaimed.
"Sorry." Bree replied.
~*~
We went to every store and by two thirty our money bags were very light.
"Want to grab a butterbeer then go to the Shrieking Shack?" Katie asked.
"Sure." We all replied. We go out butterbeers 'to go' and started walking up the steep hiss to the Shrieking Shack.
"It's creepy!" Ashley exclaimed.
"Scared Babe?" James asked coming up from behind me followed by Sirius, Remus, and Peter.
"Hey Bree!" Sirius said walking up and kissing Bree on the cheek.
"Hey." She replied.
All of us stood staring at the Shrieking Shack.
"Who wants to go inside?" James asked after a couple moments of silence.
"Your crazy James we can't go in we are not allowed!" I pointed out.
"Ready to go Sirius?" Bree asked.
"No," Sirius said sensing that something good was going to happen.
"Ahh c'mon Lilikins, your not afraid are you?" he asked me.
Of course I was afraid, "No I'm not we just aren't allowed." I replied.
"Aw you take the fun out of everything." He said as everyone was watching us.
"No I don't. I could be fun and go in there but I don't want to." I stated.
"You're scared."
"Am not!"
"Am too. If you're not scared then go in."
"There's no entrance." I said looking around.
"I'll make one for you." He walked over the fence and to a window in the back. He took the board off it and opened it up.
"Come on Lils. You got your entrance." He said. I looked around at everyone. Remus' face was pale.
I turned back around.
"Is she going to do it?" Remus asked Ashley.
"Dunno," was all she said back.
I stepped over the fence. I can't believe I am doing this. But I have to prove that I can be fun.
"After you babe," James aid holding the window open.
I handed him my butterbeer and crawled in. It was dusty and every piece of furniture was ruined.
"I gotta see this!" Sirius said going to window and looking in.
James crawled in after me. He stood up and started drinking my butterbeer but I took it out of his hands.
"Cozy isn't it?" he said smiling.
I looked around and said, "Cozy wasn't the word I was thinking of."
I turned back to James but James wasn't there.
"James?" I asked loudly.
I head a scream from above me. James' scream.
"Aw crap." I said to myself.
Outside the Shrieking Shack:
"Move over Sirius I can't see!"
"I can't see either Bree."
"Who screamed?" Ashley asked.
"Cheese and Rice scoot over Sirius!"
"I'm going to get a different view," Sirius said, "Stay here!"
Sirius went to the open window and climbed in. He snuck behind lily standing there and went down another hallway. I continued up the stairs to try and find James.
"James?" I whispered as I entered a room.
He was lying on a bed. From the corner came an evil like back hug dog!
I screamed as it went into the closet. Then James rolled over and started laughing.
"This isn't a laughing matter!" I screamed at him. I heard another voice coming from the closet. Sirius stepped out laughing/
"Stop it you stupid gits!" I said throwing a ruiened pillow at them.
We were walking back up to the castle in a group. Bree and I brought up the rear talking in deep conversation.
"So I need to get back at him." I finished explaining what happened to Bree.
"I see."
"So I was thinking." I told Bree my plan. She smiled happily; I knew she would like it. We quickly caught up with everyone ready to put our plan to action.
As we were walking we spotted the new store in the distance. The Celestial Store. Full of breakable things. I glanced at Bree and we exchanged grins.
"Let's go into that store." Bree said pointing to The Celestial Store.
"Nah I hate all that divination crap. I was supposed to die last week. It's all a bunch of rubbish if you ask me." James said continuing to walk. Everyone stopped and soon James did too.
"We want to go in there. Don't you Katie, Ashley, Michelle? Bree asked giving them a look. Ashley and Michelle quickly caught on but Katie was still in her 'lifetime blonde moment'.
"I don't wanna!" Katie complained.
"Of course you do." Michelle said nudging Katie in the ribs.
"Ow that hurt." She said rubbing her side, "If it means that much to you I'll go in. But don't let me break anything."
"I want to go in," I said grinning.
"Siri-usss!" Bree said turning to Sirius. She walked up to him and laid her head on his shoulder and look up with puppy eyes, "Will you come in?"
"Only if James, Remus, and Peter go in too." Sirius said giving in.
"Jamsey wamsey, Remy Wemy, Peter weter!" Bree said skipping their direction, "Please come in."
"Fine, but quickly." James said looking at his watch.
"Ahh Jamsey wamsey doesn't wanna be late for school!" Bree said giggling.
"No I don't want to be late for dinner." He said walking in the store door. We all entered and walked around.
Ashley and Michelle went in one direction to keep Katie from breaking anything, Peter wandered off, and we got in the perfect position for our plan.
I nudged Bree who tripped Sirius who fell to the ground bumping James alond the way down. James feel right into a shelf and it toppled over and it another which hit another and so on until every shelf in the store was on the ground and glass and broken objects were all over the floor.
"I didn't do it!" Katie yelled.
"This is the time when you would say cheese and rice Bree." Sirius muttered.
Not five seconds passed when Bree yelled, "Cheese and rice you clumsy dope Sirius!"
Sirius glared at Bree. "Bloody hell settle down Sirius," I said.
"YOU!" the owner came out from the back yelling at James who was lying on a shelf, "You must pay damages!" he yelled. "I will go and total up how much you owe me!"
He walked to the back. I looked at Bree and we both looked at James and Sirius.
They glared at us lost for words. The owner came back with a furious look on his face.
"You owe me 1,008 galleons, 12 sickles, and 3 knuts."
"I don't have that much money!" James yelled.
"Then you must continue to pay it in payment. We will set up monthly bills!"
"What!?"
"You break, you pay. What is your name?"
"Not telling." James replied crossing his hands over his chest.
"James Potter." I said smiling. He just glared at me.
"Thank you Miss. Now you go to Hogwarts correct?"
"Yup. Seventh year Gryffindor." Bree said making Sirius glare too.
"Thank you kind ladies. Now out of my store!" he yelled pointing at the door.
Bree and I skipped out linking arms happily. We stopped at the Three Broomsticks for a 'congratulations' drink. We sat by the window watching to see if James and Sirius would walk past.
Sure enough Dumb and Dumber walked by.
"Here they come!" I said getting up and grabbing my half drunken butterbeer. Bree followed and we headed out the door right as they passed.
"Hey Babe." I said.
"Shut up Lily!" James spat.
"Ahh Jamsey Poo can surely dish it out but he can't take it in." I replied calmly.
"Our prank wasn't half as bad as yours. Plus its gonna cost James a fortune to pay it all off! And you told the owner his name!" Sirius yelled.
"And school." Bree said.
"And year." I added.
"And house." Bree finished.
"Drats! We should have told him his Gringotts Vault number too." I said with a disappointed look on my face.
"Shut up!" Sirius and James yelled together.
"Calm your beastish ways," Bree said.
"I was just getting you back for more than eight years of hell." I said shouting at James. Our aces were less than a foot apart. James opened his mouth then closed it.
"Think before you speak this time Jamsey." Bree said hoping he wouldn't say mudblood again.
He glared at Bree then looked back at me.
"Let's go Bree!" I said. We linked arms again and started skipping back to the castle.
"Don't forget babe patrol tonight!" I yelled over my shoulder.

"Jamsey Babe time for patrol!" I yelled up the boys staircase. I heard a door slam and saw his feet come into view.
"Sorry I'm late. I was writing a letter to my mum saying how much money i need to pay off the damages. Thanks to you I'm grounded for a month and I have to earn all that money back with chores."
"I didn't do anything! But don't worry you poor baby you'll get over it." I said leading the way to the portrait, "Oh by the way we need to plan the Quidditch dates and games and such. And there is a meeting with the Prefects tomorrow night."
"I was thinking of a lot of ideas for Quidditch." He said walking up next to me.
"We will start patrolling in the entry hall then work our way up." I said heading down the stairs and into the entry hall.
I looked around and saw smoke coming out from underneath the door to a broom closet next to the caretaker, Jeff Olsen's, office.
"What is going on here?" I asked walking up next to the door. I opened it and walked in. I heard the door close behind me. I turned around I couldn't see James' face because of the smoke but I could see his outline.
"Oops! I shut the door that locks from the inside and alomahora doesn't work. Shucks" he said in a cocky tone.
"James! I'm gonna kill you!" I yelled heading to the door and shaking the knob.
"You and me locked together in a broom closet. What will everyone think of goody good Evans now?"
"You and I now let me out! BREE ANYONE SOMEONE!" I screamed through the door for help. But no one came.
"You don't have a camera do you?" I asked. He shook his head no.
"I don't do the same prank twice."
I backed into a cabinet and James headed towards me. James fell on top of me followed by a dusty blanket and brooms. James began to scare me. Maybe I should've done that prank on him.
"James! Get off me! Don't touch me!" I yelled. After untangling ourselves we stood up and I looked at my robes that were covered in dust and were now grey.
James didn't stop though. He started walking towards me.again. His attitude really freaked me out.
I practically ran backwards into the wall with James falling on top of me once again. Unfortunately the wall that we fell into and broke was next to the caretaker's office. We tried to untangle ourselves again not noticing his presence.
"Ahem," we heard his familiar voice.
"Ah, Hi sir," I said getting up, "We were just on duty then we saw something in the, er, broom closet when we, uh, decided to, er.." I was lost for words.
"Tango." James finished.
"Yea tango." I said with uncertainty.
"Tango, eh?" Jeff asked. I had butterflies in my stomach. Was James trying to get us into trouble?
"I was a tango-er once," Jeff replied, "Won many trophies."
I turned to James and he smiled. "Want to see some pictures?" Jeff asked going through a closet.
I watched Jeff intended to look at his pictures when James grabbed me around the waist and carried me out.
"Jeez Louiez put me down."
"Sorry couldn't get your attention so we could leave."
"Tango?" I asked once we reached the third floor.
"I heard him carrying on about it to another teacher once," James said leading the way up the stairs.
We entered the common room and I saw everyone sitting on couches in couples. Bree and Sirius, Katie and Ricky, Michelle and Leo, and Ashley and Remus. Peter must've been upstairs cause he wasn't anywhere in site.
"Hey you two made up fast." I said staring at Bree while plopping down on an arm chair next to her.
We all just sat around and talked.
"Bree get me some water," Sirius said propping his feet up.
"Excuse you?" she asked raising her eyebrow.
"Oh sorry," Sirius looked around, "Anyone else want some water? Maybe you should just get some for everyone."
"Uh hun, get your own water." She said glaring at Sirius. I looked around at everyone. I saw Remus shaking his head and mutter "Bad move Padfoot. Here we go."
"But in muggle studies I learned," Remus chuckled, "that a man's woman tended to his every needs."
"Oh god Padfoot." Remus muttered again.
"I am not your woman!" Bree yelled.
"What do you mean? We're dating!" Sirius said.
"No Sirius, stop or your relationship is going to be over," Remus said not very loud.
"THAT DOESN'T MAKE ME YOUR WOMAN!" she yelled and stood up.
"But in muggle studies-"
"That was like hundreds of years ago dimwit." I cut Sirius off.
"Yea," Katie, Bree, and Ashley stood up and added.
"So are you gonna get that water?"
"You don't get it do you!?" Bree asked.
"I like toads." Katie said.
Everyone looked at her.
"It'll be ok sweetie," I said hugging her. She obviously wasn't paying attention to our 'battle of the sexes'.
"Oh my gosh! I was thinking the same thing Lil! This is like a twilight zone! Do de do de do de do de..! I can't believe you were thinking what I was thinking!" Katie said jumping up and down with delight.
"I was?" I asked confused.
"Yes! A sugar party!" She said running up the girls' staircase.
"Hey, I didn't say I like her for her brains." Ricky said sitting down.
A minute later Katie came running down the stairs with a huge basket of candy. She sat down next to Ricky and tore open her fist bag of candy.
"Maybe you shouldn't eat that Katie." Bree said knowing how Katie get when here is sugar in her system. Not before long Katie was sitting on the sofa laughing hysterically for no reason while we all continued to fight.
"Women can do anything a guy could do!" I yelled.
"No they can't." James said.
"I want some chicken!" Katie said between laughs.
"Not now Katie!" James told her.
"It's a girl's world and guys just live in it!" Michelle exclaimed.
"We could live with out girls," Sirius said.
"Really? You seriously think you guys could live with out us?" I asked.
"Sure we can," James said standing up next to Sirius.
"Oh you think you could?" Ashley asked standing next to Bree and I. Soon Michelle joined us too.
"Prove it." Michelle said.
"Course we will," James said not knowing what to expect.
"What?" Sirius asked.
"No girlfriends, no hugs, no kissing, no arms around each other, you name it." I said knowing we were going to win this bet.
"No kissing?" Sirius whimpered, "No girlfriends? James this isn't fair, you don't even have a girl friend and you are putting me and Remus through this torture!"
"You'll be fine."
"So technically we're going on strike!" Ashley said. We all smiled.
"Fine!" James yelled. But Sirius just whimpered.
"Come on girls lets go." Bree said leading the way to our dorm. Followed by Ashely, Michelle, and I.
"Coming Katie?" I asked.
"Oh yea sorry!" She said getting up, "See you tomorrow Ricky."
"Your going to see him tomorrow?"
"Yeah!" Katie said following me.
"But we're going on strike."
"I know."
