James stirred as he awoke and looked around; He had fallen asleep in the common room. It was late and dark out.
'I slept the whole day, why didn't they wake me up' James thought to himself. He got up and walked to the kitchens. After he ate, James walked back up to the common room and up to the boy's dorm. Sirius was fast asleep in his bed and Remus was missing. So James decided to go to the room of requirement. When he got there the door was already there, so instead of thinking he just walked in, to find Remus fast asleep on a couch in a room he didn't recognize.
"Moony" James whispered waking him up
"What, oh hi" Remus said
"Where are we Moony?" James asked. Remus looked around
"In Millie's Living room" Remus answered
"Why?" James asked
"I don't know" Remus said
"Good reason" James said
"What are you doing here?" Remus asked
"Slept all day so now I'm not tired" James said
"What time is it?" Remus asked
"I don't know, it's late though" James said
"Well I'm going to go back up to the boy's dorm then" Remus said
"Ok, c-ya later" James said. Remus left the room and James sat on the couch looking around. He looked at the pictures, and found one he rather liked. It was a picture of Lily, Millie, and Cheri at the beach. It must have been from last summer because the girls looked pretty much the same. He was tempted to try to take it off the wall but didn't.
Instead he took a walk outside. He walked to the lake and sat down under a tree. There was still snow on the ground and the lake was still frozen. The temperature couldn't have been higher than 40 degrees. He didn't really care though. He still sat there starring out to the lake thinking.
Right after Cheri had hung up the phone it rang. And again she picked it up.
"Hello?" He said simply
"Do you hate me" Josh asked. Now Cheri was silent
"I don't know" Cheri answered
"Come on, how do you not know. Just tell me Cheri" Josh said
"I hate what you did, but I could never hate you" Cheri said
"Ok, Thanks" Josh said
"For what" Cheri asked
"For not hating me" Josh said
"Why?" Cheri asked
"Because I couldn't live with myself if my best friend hated me" Josh said hanging up the phone. Cheri slowly put the receiver down.
Millie had gone to be and Cheri sat down on the couch half smiling. She was happy that josh had called, since she hadn't talked to him in awhile but she still could never forgive him. And she didn't think that Millie should either.
Millie had a weird dream that her and josh had gotten back together, and she was happy. She woke up peacefully and thought about it for the rest of the night.
Sirius slept right through the night, dreamless, like usual. When he awoke Remus too was awake and James was in the common room. Sirius walked downstairs and sat next to James
"You should've woken me yesterday" James said
"Good morning to you too" Sirius said
"Morning" James said. Remus came down the stairs a minute later and the three left for breakfast. After eating, they retreated back to the common room. Todd was also there.
"Hey buddy, what's up?" Sirius asked sitting across from Todd
"Nothing much, you?" Todd asked
"Same" Sirius said
"Game of chess?" Todd asked
"Sure" Sirius said. A minute later Todd and Sirius were playing a game of wizard chess.
"What can we do moony?" James asked
"No idea" Remus said
"Fun" James said sarcastically
"Yup" Remus said
"So we have everything to pull the prank with right?" James asked
"Yea" Remus said
"So when are we going to do it?" James asked
"I was thinking either the middle of the night, the night before, Or really early that morning" Remus said
"Like how early?" James asked
"Like four in the morning early" Remus said
"I think I'd rather the middle of the night" James said
"Thought so" Remus said
"We just have to watch out for flitch" Remus said
"Ok" James said
"Wait a minute, were putting stuff on the stairs right?" Remus asked
"Yea Why?" James asked
"How are we going to do that without anyone noticing?" Remus asked
"Don't worry I've got it covered" James said
"Ok" Remus said thinking
"Counting down, only 4 days left" James said getting up one morning
"Yes" Remus said sitting on his bed
"Wha?" Sirius asked sleepily
"4 Days left until everyone come back" James said
"Oh, yea whatever" Sirius said turning over in his bed and shutting his eyes
"Come on Padfoot, get up" James said opening Sirius's bed curtains letting the sunlight flow freely onto his face
"Prongs!" Sirius said putting a pillow over his head
"Ok, we'll just go eat then" James said walking towards his bed waiting
"Food! Hold on I'll only be a minute!" Sirius yelled jumping up and throwing on his robes, he looked at James who was still getting dressed, and threw a pillow at him because he was laughing
"It always works" James said
"Shut up prongs" Sirius said
"Lets go" Remus said walking out, both boys close behind. They walked down to the great hall, and surprisingly for once, they were the first ones there, but not by far, about a minute later a few Ravenclaw girls walked in and sat down. A few moments after that most everyone else that was there had come down to eat.
James explained to Remus and Sirius Exactly how they were going to pull the prank without anyone noticing, (until it was too late). They made sure that they could put the water fall of slime at every exit of the hall. Plus an added feature for everyone who was smart enough not to leave. They made sure they had enough balloons, enough Slime, Enough paint, and enough goo for everything. They also made it so that they would have cameras set up around the school to get everything on tape. But also had figured out that to make nothing look suspicious they too had to be in on the prank, meaning they also would be covered, in paint, slime, and goo. The teachers would also get slimed, which meant they could look forward to a good month of detention. But it was worth it.
