Chapter four: Halloween
Halloween morning finally came and Lily and Brittany were worried out of their minds. Why? Lets just day ever since first year the mauraders, on Halloween, always did something to the two girls. ALWAYS. Well, actually they'd only been doing this for two years. But they figured that they were gonna do it this year too. How lucky!
" Lil, I don't wanna go." Brittany whined
" I know, but we have classes." Lily replied
" Well, we could claim we're sick." Brittany suggested
" No, Vanessa and Jane would rat us out." Lily replied
Vanessa and Jane were the girls roommates, and very mean to Lily and Brittany.
" Yeah, bunch of babies." Brittany said, referring to the two
" Come on, we better get the day over with." Lily said dully
So the two girls walked down the staircase and to the Great Hall for breakfast. There they were, waiting. Brittany looked at Lily and said," Now I really don't wanna go." But Lily dragged her toward the table.
" Sit here Lilyflower." James said, patting the seat next to him
" Oh.... I'm sure Britt would like to sit there, right Britt?" Lily asked, hoping that she would reply yes.
" Uh..... NO! Lil, he's your problem." Brittany answered
So Lily sat down, not very happily, but she sat down. Then Remus took the opportunity to offer Brittany a seat.
" Here Britt, sit here Britt." Remus said, patting the seat next to him
" Okay." Brittany replied
Of course Sirius was to busy stuffing his face to realize the girls even arrived. Soon Lily saw, out of the corner of her eye, James whisper something to Remus. She could of swore Remus' reply was," outside." Lily, who was confused by all this, finished her breakfast as fast as possible, and she and Brittany walked to their first class. Potions!
When they got there they took their usual seats. Lily and Brittany sat beside each other, while Remus sat behind Brittany and James sat behind Lily, which meant that Remus and James sat beside each other. Sirius sat on the other side of Brittany.
"Okay class, today we will be making the invisibility potion. blah blah blah blah blah."
Lily quickly glanced behind her at James and Remus. They were passing a note to Sirius. When Sirius got he looked directly and Brittany and grinned evilly. Lily saw Sirius take out his wand and tried to warn Brittany, but Brittany was already taking notes as fast as possible. Sirius muttered some words and out of the end of his wand came a frog which flew at Brittany and to her bad luck fell down her shirt. As soon as Brittany notice the frog was down her shirt she jumped off her stool and yell," Wooooooowww!" which interrupted the teachers lesson.
" Ms. Cellars, if you can not control your little urges to yell, then you will earn a week of detention. Now sit down!" The professor yelled
" But Professor I." Brittany said, but was rudely interrupted
" I said sit down! You ignorant girl." The professor yelled, and Brittany immediatly sat down.
" For your rude interruptions, you will serve a weeks detentions and Gryffindor will loose 10 points." He stated
" But Professor," Brittany said, and was again interrupted
" Want to make it a month of detention." He asked
" No Professor." Brittany replied
As soon as she sat down she glared at a smirking Sirius.
Soon Potions was over and the rest of the day went by fast. After the all the girls' classes were over Lily and Brittany decided to go to their favorite place on the grounds, the tree by the lake. But as you might have guessed, there were already three certain boys occupying the tree. Lily looked at Brittany whose face was red with anger, she remember how humiliated Brittany was during Potion. Brittany began to move closer to the tree. The mauraders looked up and saw Lily and Brittany and grinned. As you might have guessed, the girl's weren't grinning back.
" YOU!" Brittany screamed, pointing to Sirius
" Relax Britt, it was just a prank." He replied
" Just a prank, just a prank, JUST A PRANK! HOW DARE YOU!" she screamed, moving closer to Sirius," Your little ' PRANK ' humiliated me in front of the whole class. Did you have to pull a frog out of your bra? I DON'T THINK SO!"
" Britt, I don't wear a bra." Sirius replied, with his stupid smile.
" Well it's a wonder, because for someone who thinks he's such a big man you act like such a girly girl." Brittany replied
" Wanna say that to my face?" asked Sirius, getting up in Brittany's face
" I just did dingdong." Brittany replied
" ENOUGH!" James bellowed, causing Brittany and Sirius to look at him in surprise
" Britt, apologize to Padfoot." James said
" Why should she apologize for his stupid prank?" Lily asked
" Lilyflower, this doesn't concern you." James answered
" Excuse me, but in what way does it concern you? Lily asked
James paused
" Let's just drop it." Brittany said, not wanting to start a James vs. Lily feud
" Fine." Sirius said
" Anyway we were hoping you girls would come out here." Sirius continued
" Why, so you could a frog down Lily's shirt, and maybe another one down mine?" Brittany asked
" Just drop it." Sirius said
" Fine." Brittany replied
" Anyway we wanted to have a pick me up contest." He continued
" A what?" asked Lily
" See who can pick up who?" James stated
" Well that sounds kind of boring." Brittany stated
" Let me finish, and see who can stay up the longest." James finished
" I'm the referee." Sirius said proudly
" Well pin a rose on your nose." Brittany replied, causing everyone except Sirius to laugh.
" Okay I'll be picking up my Lilyflower, and Remus will be picking up his little Brittany-bear." James exclaimed, and Remus' face turned very pale
" His what?" Brittany asked
" Oh well that's what he calls you when you're not around." Sirius answered
" Padfoot you idiot!" Remus said
Brittany was just standing there like she hadn't even heard it.
James turned to Lily and started to move toward her.
" Okay Lilyflower, up you go." He said
" No thank you, i'd rather stay on the ground." She replied
" Oh come on now, don't make me chase you." He said
" Well unless you can make me stand still, good luck picking me up." She said, and turned the other way.
James took this opportunity and snatched her right up.
" James Potter, you put me down this instant." Lily said
" Then we'll loose the contest." James explain, keeping his firm hold
Lily looked at Brittany to see her laughing her head off at Lily.
" I don't know what you're laughing about Britt, your next." Lily stated, and watched as Brittany's laughing
finally stopped.
" Your not serious are you." Brittany studdered
" No I'm Remus." Remus replied, getting up and moving toward her.
" Oh you don't want to pick me up. I'm as heavy as a house, you can't pick up a house." Brittany replied
" Ah, but you are lying Britt, remember I've picked you up before, and your light as a feather." He replied
" You keep thinking that, but I'm not going up in the air and that is final." Brittany stated, planting herself in sitting position on the ground.
" That's it." Sirius said, moving forward.
" As referee of this contest, I say get up!" He stated
" No." Brittany said in a rather 5 year old type fashion
" Alright then you leave me no choice." He said, and took a hold of Brittany's arms and easily pulled her up.
" Alright Moony, grab her." Sirius instructed, and just like that Remus scooped Brittany up in his arms.
" Alright, now that some of us finally got in position," He glared at Brittany who returned it," We can start. Let the contest commence."
They stood there in complete silence for 10 minutes until someone finally spoke.
" Well this is rather boring." Lily stated
" I agree." Brittany added
" Do you girls want us to make it more interesting?" Sirius asked
" Sure." Lily said
" Alright guys you know what to do." Sirius said, and James and Remus nodded, and started moving toward the lake.
" Um... What are you guys doing?" asked Lily
" Oh Lilyflower, I'm glad you asked." James stated
" Well are you gonna answer my question?" Lily asked
" Okay." He simply said, and dropped Lily into the lake from the hill he was standing on. ( This wasn't dangerous at all, everyone jumps off the hill for fun, but not in October."
Brittany looked at James then at the lake where Lily was, and then at Remus who was still holding her, and standing right next to where James was.
" LIL, ARE YOU ALRIGHT?" Brittany screamed down at the water
" I'M GONNA KILL YOU, JAMES POTTER." she screamed back.
Brittany looked at Remus again in horror.
" Remus did I mention how handsome you're looking today?" she asked
" Why thank you Britt, and you're looking exceptionally ravishing this evening," he replied
" But you know what would make you look a bit sexier?" he asked
" What?" Brittany asked, not really wanting to hear the answer
" Water." Remus answered, and dropped Brittany into the lake from on top of the hill.
When the girls looked back up at the hill they saw the three mauraders laughing their heads off. They looked at each other and said, with out hesitation, " This mean war!!!"
