SIRIUS
I ran a hand through my hair in annoyance. God, he's such an uptight, goody two-shoed, studious, cute, wonderful… ARGH!
I ran across the grounds, trying to loosen up. "Sirius, wait up!" I heard someone say suddenly. I turned my head and saw Remus, trying to catch up with me. Okay, first, he hates me, now he's running after me? What the hell's going on?
I couldn't say a word as he approached me, brushing his bangs away from his eyes. He looked so wonderful, the sun highlighting his light brown hair dashed with gold and sparkling his gorgeous eyes. "I just wanna apologize," he said softly, not meeting my eyes. "I didn't mean to hurt you, really, I just felt really tense because of the Pre-NEWTS and thinking you'll love me just because you wanna have sex—"
"Remus," I interrupted, "I'd never love you just for the sex. It's pleasurable, yeah, but it won't compare to you as a whole. The Pre-NEWTS won't be so bad. I'm sorry for not letting you study but those are just preparing us for what lies ahead. We'll go through it together, okay?"
I opened up my arms slightly and he perfectly slipped into place. My heart started beating faster than normal. Wow, I really AM in love with this guy… "I love you, Sirius," he murmured against me. I blushed and smiled.
"Yeah, I love you too, Remus…"
REMUS
Sirius and I walked hand-in-hand towards the castle, chatting happily as we did. Everyone had misunderstandings, hell, I bet Sirius and I will have loads, we just adore debating with each other.
We were walking to Gryffindor Tower when we spotted James and Lily chatting as well. "What fun, Jamie and Lily flower," Sirius said under his breath, making me chuckle. He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and we watched from a distance.
"Uh, yeah, I was just wondering if you'd like to go to Hogsmeade with me this weekend to just… like… um, hang around or something," James said nervously, running a hand through his hair. James was never nervous, only around Lily did he act like a true dork. Just kidding.
"Um," Lily said, taken aback, "I'd love to."
Sirius and I suddenly whooped happily, and we immediately covered our mouths afterward. James and Lily burst out laughing before finding us and giving us playful "stern" looks. "God, you two, can't you find anything better to do?" James asked.
"Well, James, we'd love to but you and Lily are our favorite subjects," Sirius commented, grinning his cute lopsided grin.
"Yeah, after all, you did it to us too," I added, making Sirius and I chuckle in amusement.
"Ugh, fine," James mumbled, but Lily merely laughed and gave us both a hug.
"Don't expect us to get married anytime soon though," she commented.
"But you didn't say don't expect us to get married," Sirius said. I laughed and raised my eyebrows in amusement. Lily turned a good shade of red, her eyes twinkling brightly.
"I better go. See you all later, then," she said, becoming flustered. She went up to the common room, after pecking James on the cheek. Hmm… What fun.
The three of us ran into Peter ended up by the kitchens of course, instinct taking us there. We chatted about all the mischief we made, all the troubles we've caused and yet all the achievements we've done. "Honestly, Marauders, I'd say we've done a good job causing mayhem and triumph to our batch here," James commented, eating some Yorkshire pudding.
"I'll toast to that," Sirius said, holding up his butterbeer. "To the mischief of the Marauders."
"To the troubles of the Marauders," I added, holding up my butterbeer. Peter laughed and held up his butterbeer.
"To the achievements of the Marauders." We clinked bottles and drank it up to the last drop. No matter what, we were the Marauders, mischief, mayhem and brilliance all rolled into one.
SIRIUS
Eventually sixth year had to end. It was a weird year, somewhat fantastic, somewhat strange. Remus, James, Lily and I passed with high marks during Pre-NEWTS, I loved the look on Remus' face when he found out he got the highest marks in Defense Against the Dark Arts. Lily had gotten Charms, James had gotten Transfiguration and I, to my great surprise, had gotten high in Herbology.
"Well, people, this calls for a Hogsmeade visit," James said, grinning as we walked down the halls after getting our grades that Saturday.
"Indeed, I'm craving for a butterbeer." Remus licked his lips. God, he looks wonderful, as always.
"I just drank some," I said teasingly and bent down to receive a kiss. To my delight, I got one, a very nice one at that.
"Get a room, you two," Lily said jokingly as she entwined her fingers with James's. I grinned impishly and pulled away the same time Remus did.
"God, you ruin kisses too much, Lily," Remus commented, laughing.
We went down to the Three Broomsticks and ordered butterbeers. James and Lily sat across Remus and I. Our knees hit each other's slightly, making us chuckle at each other. "So, to seventh year?" Lily asked, holding up her bottle.
"To NEWTS," Remus said, rolling his eyes as he held up his bottle.
"To more mischief and mayhem," I said, holding up my bottle and grinning.
"To us four," James said finally, holding up his bottle. The four of us laughed and clinked bottles.
"CHEERS!"
AAGH! I'm sorry for slipping up last chapter; I didn't know how to rewrite it! Thanks so much, I'm finally done! Keep reading:)
