A/N: Hey I know they last one was late but I got sick sniffles so I was stuck in bed and not able to start on this. I know it's really really short but I didn't know what to write so I just kind of made this up to get them introduced to the rest of their classes. I will try to get the next one out sooner but I might change my updates to once a week because I seem to have a lot of holiday homework left and my Beta has a pretty busy schedule.

Raifuno Maki - Glad you like it so far; I'm trying to make the rest as good

Hello? mary - Lol I promise they will grow up soon - and I figure finding out about Remus and working on the Animagus potion will make them more mature in some aspects. Thanks for the wishes; it was actually on my birthday, hee hee I went a bit hyper because now I'm rich! Sorry it wasn't out sooner but like I said I got sick :(

Cha Rianne () - Hey glad you like it, the Gryffindor girls are Lily Evans, Mia Miyagi, Jessica Rivers, Morgan Nickels and Helen Stevens


Chapter 6 - Hot Professors and Unwelcome Introductions

That day the first years had History of Magic, which was as Jessica had said, completely boring. By 10 minutes into the lesson everyone except Lily, who was determined to beat James Potter, had fallen asleep on their neighbours shoulder. Their teacher, Professor Binns, couldn't remember anybody's names and didn't notice that the class wasn't paying attention.

Next up was Defense against the Dark Arts with professor Hains. Hains was young and tall, with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was gorgeous, and all the girls thought so. Jessica decided this was her favourite class based on the fact it had a good teacher. The lesson itself wasn't too bad, they did a general overview of what they would be studying this year and Hains didn't set any homework.

At lunch was where the trouble started. The boys were first down, (the girls had taken as long as possible clearing their things due to a certain professor) and were eating when the girls came in.

"I'll be right back," James said, getting up from his seat and walking over to where the girls had sat down. "Hey Mimi," He smiled, giving Mia a hug when he reached them.

"What do you want Potter?" Lily asked coolly before Mia could respond.

"I want to talk to my friend" he replied, his temper rising already.

"You're friends are down the table. Now leave us alone."

"My best friend is sitting right in front of you."

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

"Is not!"

"Mia tell her," He said smugly to Mia.

"Mia!?" Lily demanded.

"Lily, meet my neighbour and best friend since I was 8, James Potter." Mia replied in a small voice while James was smirking.

"Mia can I see you outside for a minute please?" Lily said through gritted teeth. Mia looked pleadingly at Jessica to find she had gone to talk to some of her Ravenclaw friends.

"Uh, ok." She responded, looking at the girl in front of her. Lily gave the impression of being a lot scarier than she was with her red hair and eyes that went a dark green when she was angry. Lily stood up and practically dragged Mia out of the hall.

"He's your friend?!" Lily shouted as soon as they were out in the entrance hall, "Why didn't you tell me!?" Mia attempted to interrupt but failed, "You live next door!?" She paused, weighing a few things out in her mind, "Can I come over at Christmas?" She finished, smiling at Mia.

"W-what?" Mia stuttered, expecting more shouting from Lily.

"If I come over at Christmas then we can have loads of fun with them." She grinned evilly.

"Cool!" Both girls smiled and walked back into the Entrance Hall to see James had returned to the other boys. The two smiled at James as they sat down and laughed at the stunned look on his face.


"What was that about mate?" Sirius asked in between mouthfuls of food when James returned.

"Yeah we heard you and Lily arguing own there. Hard to miss," Remus added.

"Lily didn't believe Mia was my friend, the look on her face when Mia said she was."

"Mia's your friend?" Remus responded (Sirius had opted to go back to his food and listen to the conversation instead of participating).

"Yeah she moved next door when we were eight, and since I didn't have anyone else my age on my street we became friends. I hadn't had a chance to talk to her since we got here because of the detention."

"Did you know it was her in the boat then?"

"Yeah but she knows it was just a joke."

"Don't think Lily found it that funny."

"Another reason for staying away for a while." He smiled, hearing distant shouting from outside the hall.

"She does have a, uh, fiery temper," Remus continued.

"For a girl," James smirked, "We better get to astronomy the bells about to go."

Astronomy turned out to be pretty boring, as it was still daylight. All the curtains were closed and they examined projections of the star constellations in the dark, while copying them down. Their teacher, Professor Sinistra, seemed very passionate about their subject and told people off for not paying attention. She told them that the next year they would be studying outside at night but for now they had to work with the classroom, which was dark and very tempting to fall asleep in.

After an hour and a half the bell went, effectively awaking the boys at the back of the class that had been hiding behind their books while they were sleeping.

"C'mon guys, transfig next, don't want to get McGonagall mad again," Remus spoke when they woke up. Sirius groaned. "What's up Sirius?"

"I forgot I have to sit next to Evans. This class is not gonna be as good as I thought with her nagging at me all the time," He sighed, stuffing his books in his bag.

"Cheer up mate," James continued, "I'm right in front and you can just piss her off by messing it up and get her all mad."

"But then she'll shout at me," Sirius whined.

"You're afraid of a girl?" James questioned.

"Evans is a scary girl with a bad temper."

"Just tune her out while she shouts at you and keep grinning to piss her off more. Trust me I do it with Mia all the time."

"Well whatever you do we better go or we'll be late and we'll have more than Evans mad at us," Remus interrupted, alerting them to the fact that the class had already left.

The boys arrived just as the bell went and hastily sat down, while trying to avoid their teacher's glares. Sirius saw Lily look disapprovingly at him before turning her attention to the class and shared a quick grin with his best friend.

Today's lesson was more basic transfiguration- turning beetles into buttons. Sirius and James found it very amusing to keep levitating the girl's beetles into their hair until Professor McGonagall took away 5 points and threatened more detention. They, then, spent the rest of the lesson changing their beetles back and forth with ease while listening to 'Evans' muttering angrily under her breath that this was stupid. They knew of course that she was only saying that because she couldn't do it and the boys took great pleasure in this.

"Need some help Evans?" Sirius enquired innocently as he transfigured his button back.

"No," She glared at the beetle on Sirius' desk like it was its fault. "I can do it myself."

"Yeah, looks like it," He sneered. "All you have to do is give it a little tap and say magic words." He demonstrated this, "See? Simple." He grinned at the angry look on her face and escaped her reply as the bell rung to signal the end of the class. "Bye Evans." He waved cheerily before walking off with James to join Remus and Peter.


A/N: I also changed a minor thing on chapter four because I accidentally missed out two Ravenclaws from the seating plan in transfiguration that are mentioned later in the story. They are Zach Morris and Olivia Narren sitting next to Remus and Mia on the back row.
