Chapter 8

+

Sirius burst out laughing and fell to the ground clutching at his stomach, "oooh! I can't breathe, I can't breathe."

"Good." Arabella muttered and turned to Lily, shrugging, "what can I say? It's normal, he has to take a Wee."

The red head shook her head vigorously, "NO, he doesn't."

"I'm pretty sure I do."

"No, you don't."

"Do you want to drag around a dead man?!" James burst out, "I have to whiz!!!!!!!"

Sirius burst into another fit of laughter, while Remus and Cecilia covered their smiles with their hands.

"Here, you this sound blocking charm. I'll ask my mum later about everything else." Arabella said, and Lily nodded, letting the sound blocking charm to be cast on her. Immediately, Lily heard nothing and she nodded turning to Arabella who was mouthing something.

"WHAT?!?! WHAT DID YOU SAY!?!? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!"

Everyone winced and Lily felt herself dragged quickly to the bathroom. Turning redder than her hair, she let herself be dragged and closed her eyes tightly. Feeling her hand dangling which ever way James moved it. Lily was glad that he didn't move his right hand too much, because she was sure if he had, she'd have touched something she probably didn't want to. Glad when he finally moved, she opened her eyes and they met James' brown ones. They blushed and he walked over to the sink, washing his hands, as did Lily. The pair stepped out and Arabella lifted the charm, and Lily sighed.

"I don't know how I'm going to survive." She muttered and sat, dragging James down and making him crumble down next to her.

"It won't be that bad, you have the best looking guy at Hogwarts stuck to you." Arabella insisted, plopping down on the soft couch.

"You know I look better." Sirius said grinning.

"Shut it Black."

"You know I'm charming, and you know I'm the best thing you've laid eyes on."

"You think I'm blind?"

People often thought that Sirius and Arabella were secretly going out. Or maybe that HE liked her but she hated him. Ha, if only they knew. Lily knew that Arabella thought Sirius was an annoying (but handsome) git, and Lily knew Sirius knew that Arabella thought he was an annoying (DEVILISHLY handsome) git and he thoroughly enjoyed living up to that thought. Therefore, the two didn't have a relationship at all, not even friendship.

Lily studied Cecilia and Remus, they were just sitting quietly next to each other. Occasionally looking at each other quickly and then back down again. Rumors about the two spread during the school year, making things more awkward for the two. From what Lily knew, neither had feelings for each other. They were just embarrassed about the rumors, and both were too shy to confront each other about them.

"So exactly what are we going to do about the two?" Sirius asked chewing on his lip, (and looking devilishly handsome while doing so, Lily noted. Arabella might have been too proud to admit it. But anyone who saw Sirius and called him ugly had to be nothing less than blind.)

"I have an idea, we could put either Lily or James in a freezing charm. That way, they won't know how much time's passed, and won't hear, see, feel anything." Cecilia pointed out.

"Or smell." Sirius pointed out, winking at Lily and James, both blushed crimson.

"Shut up Black." Arabella snapped, giving him an impatient glare.

"Hey, everyone does it. Speaking of which, I think I need to go right now." He said thoughtfully. Lily and James burst out laughing, Cecilia and Remus chuckled, and Arabella just gave him a look of disgust.

"I should kick you out."

"But you won't, cause you love me."

"Sod off." She muttered and got more infuriated when he blew her a kiss, "BLAGH!! Get out of my house!"

"Oh, my Morning Bella, this isn't how you treat a guest."

"Yeah, it'd how you treat a dog! And you act too much like a dog for my liking!"

Sirius, James and Remus all stiffened at the mention of DOG and chuckled nervously.

"Yeah Sirius, maybe you should go empty yourself." Lily grinned, "DOODY calls."

Sirius burst out at the lame attempt at a joke, "DUTY- DOODY!! AHAHAHAHA, that's hilarious!" Sirius laughed grabbing some Floo powder and stepping into the fireplace.

"It wasn't that funny was it?" Lily asked turning to Remus, Arabella and Cecilia.

"Definately not." James agreed, "all that shit was filling up his insides. I bet some made it's way up to his brain."

Arabella laughed and shook her head, "you guys kill me."

"Yeah, we'll we haven't done so yet." The five teenagers fell into a comfortable silence before they were startled when a soot covered girl stumbled out.

"Cherry, what are you doing here?" Lily asked scratching the side of her face lightly.

"What? A friend can't come visit a friend?" She asked pointing her nose up and sitting down on the ground, "nice place you've got here Arabella, even though it's quite small."

Lily's mouth dropped open at Cherry's words, Arabella's house was anything BUT small.

"If you don't close your mouth, a fly is going to fly in." Cherry smirked at Lily and Lily immediately closed her mouth.

"You like rude for no reason, Oakland? Or can't you help yourself?" Lily snapped, her eyebrows crunching. Sensing an argument, James nudged her with his shoulder, which Cherry saw.

"Are you trying to make the girls jealous? So you're like this over break, I wonder what you'll do to keep him to yourself during the school year. Act like you have his baby?"

Arabella and Cecilia gasped, while Remus just gave Cherry an annoyed glare.

"That's it!" Lily scrambled up, or tried to, but stopped when she realized James wasn't budging.

"Stand up, Potter! So that I can kill her!" Lily tugged again, but James sat still.

"Stop it, you're not going to give her the satisfaction of knowing she got to you are you?"

"Shut up, I'm going to kill her." She gave another tug before James tugged her back right as soon as she stopped tugging. Causing her to fall back and land on her back. Groaning, Lily rubbed her shoulder and shot James a glare.

"I'll get you after I'm finished with her."

Cherry gave another smirk and turned to Arabella with a different look, "so what are you doing this summer? We should totally hang out. Don't you think?"

"Yeah, that'd be good. Us four should all hang out, don't you think?"

"Us four?" Cherry asked.

"Well, yeah," Arabella nodded, "me, you, Cecilia and Lily. Maybe James if they still don't get the cuff's off."

"Okay, that's great." Cherry grinned and turned to James and Lily.

"Bye Evans," She said, "bye James." With a wave at the messy haired Marauder, she got a pinch of Floo powder and stepped into the fireplace.

"Oak's G- AHHHK!"

"Hey guys I'm back from taking a - SHIT!" He yelled, and James burst out laughing at how well the sentence went together.

Sirius's 150 lbs body slammed into Cherry's as he appeared OUT of the fireplace while she was trying to get IN. Sirius fell to the ground pushing Cherry down as well. Cherry stumbled a few more times before she slammed into a nearby dresser. Remus and Cecilia had the courtesy to try and not laugh by looking at ground. Arabella had the decency to muffle her laughter. But neither Lily, James and Sirius had the decency NOR the courtesy to try and muffle their laughter or look down at the ground.

Dazed, Cherry shook her head and stood up shakily. Covering her face, she took another pinch of powder and stepped into the fireplace.

"Padfoot, you should have heard yourself!" James said through his laughter and put on a straight face, "Hey guys! I'm back from taking a SHIT!" He said, imitating Sirius.

The group burst into laughter and it took a while for them to calm down.

"Hey kids, any of you hungry?"

"Yes ma'am!" The group quickly got up. With the exception of Lily and James who tried to get up before the other and quickly fell on their backs.

"Dammit." Lily muttered as James stood, and pulled her up with him.

"Come on Lily flower, I don't know about you, but I'm sure as hell, hungry." James said tugging his hand .

"I'll walk as slow as I want, thank you VERY much." She said stubbornly.

James stopped walking abruptly and shot Lily a sly smile.

"What's wrong with you Potter? BLAGH!" She shrieked as James picked her up and slung her over his shoulder.

"When a man has to eat, he has to eat." He said, giving her a slight pat.

"What are you touching?! Put me down POTTER!! And I don't understand what you mean by MAN."

"You have a nice bum."

"Why thank y- Dammit!"

James laughed loudly and quickly hurried down the stairs and into the kitchen, "what's for dinner?"

"You have a nice bum, Lily." Sirius commented.

"Hey, don't look at her bum. Her bum is my bum." James said giving her a light pat.

"Dammit! My bum is not the neighborhood drum!" She yelled, getting quiet chuckles from both Cecilia and Remus.

"I don't know Lily, it is pretty nice." Remus joined.

"Yeah, Lily." Arabella said jokingly, Lily laughed on top of James' shoulder.

"Stop laughing, you're even heavier when you laugh."

"I am NOT heavy! Dammit POTTER! Put me down this instant!" Her fist pounded his back, and he put her down grinning.

"You liked it." He winked at her and she raised a fist threateningly.

"Let's just eat." Lily dragged a grinning James to large cherry oak table and sat down where Mrs. Figg was already sitting laughing with amusement. The group sat down in the chairs and Lily reached for her fork with her right hand, while James reached for his fork with his left hand.

"Are you left handed?"

"Yeah, you're not?"

"Most people aren't."

"Well, just another reason I'm more special."

"Shut up, I'm going to eat with my right hand, so you eat with your right."

"No, I'm eating with my left, you eat with your left."

"Can't you two agree with anything?" Arabella asked poking her salad lightly with her fork.

"Haven't you noticed? We agree with everything!" Lily muttered sarcastically.

"Great, then I'll eat with my left and you can eat with your left." James smiled sweetly at her. And she gave an annoyed growl and picked her fork up with her left hand. Lily glared at James and he turned to her blowing her a kiss.

'This is going to be a long month...' Arabella thought, rubbing her temples.

'Poor Prongs is going to be killed...' Sirius grinned.

'Wonder how long it'll be before Lily slaps him..' Cecilia thought with amusement.

'Prongs might be my best friend, but he sure is annoying...' Remus shook his head and sighed.

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOO!!!

115 reviews!! Is that great or what?! And it's because of you beautiful reviewers!!

MUCHO GRACIAS!!!

MERCI!!

GAM SA HAP NE DA!!

ARIGATO!! (is that right?? ^_^;;;;;)

++

This is a little pointless but I thought I'd just put a little info on the Characters' personalities. Because in all the fics that I read James is always the player who Lily changes. Sirius is a MAJOR player who never settles down. Lily is the innocent girl that becomes beautiful over break And Remus is ... Remus.. ^_^. So I made them all a little different in my fic. Check it out.

Lily Evans

She's frank, and she doesn't like James (yet), she's bossy, and doesn't like crying, she doesn't like losing to anything or anyone. Not AMAZING pretty or gorgeous. Just a little above average.

James Potter

He's VERY good looking, only has eyes for Lily, determined. Does everything the way he wants.

Sirius Black

Too busy with pranks and annoying people around him to have time for girlfriends. His main priority in life is bugging Arabella.

+

Oh and the reason I didn't make Arabella/Sirius and Remus/Cecilia a couple is because it's so unreal. All of Lily's friends getting together with the Marauders.
