OK! I decided to make another story! Enjoy and sorry for the stupid chapter title; I couldn't think of anything else.
Muggle Studies
Chapter 1: Morning Plans
Sirius yawned, "I wish tonight was the full moon. I'm as bored as hell." He surveyed his dorm room, too lazy to move. Like James, he was sitting on the richly carpeted floor, leaning back against his bed, yet unlike his best friend, he wasn't polishing his broomstick. Not that he owned one.
"Yah, it's not like I can control the cycle though." Remus shifted around on his bed. The day he didn't read a book, was the day pigs fly. That was the reason why he didn't read last week. Sirius grinned at the memory. Snivellus did deserve it. "You'll just have to wait a week."
"Does anyone own a time turner?"
"No Padfoot, we don't," his sandy-haired friend turned a page in his book, clearly wanting him to stop talking.
"Damn," he said annoyed. "Why are we stuck in our room tonight anyway? Isn't there anything to do?"
James put his broom away in his closet along with his Broom Servicing Kit and sat on his own bed, "No, unless you want to read, but who does that?" They both missed the glare Remus gave them, before turning back to his story. "And girls don't like going on dates on Sunday nights. Supposedly, they need their rest for school."
"But don't you?" Peter scrambled off his bed to be closer to his friends.
James snickered, "Only you would need your beauty sleep Peter, but I suppose you're right for once."
"Really?"
"Yah, if you actually wanted to go on the Muggle Studies trip for this entire week and a half," stretching his arms, he laid back on his bed.
Peter looked confused, "But aren't we going?"
"Do you actually want to give up magic for a week? I sure as hell don't," he glanced sideways at his friends, "Lily isn't going anyway."
Tick… tock… tick… tock…"You mean you don't want us to go, because you want to stay with Lily?" Peter screwed up his face in concentration.
"Don't be silly, mate," Sirius said to James. "You're only going to be a free man for so long."
"Yah, and I'm going to stay a free man if Lily catches me with one more girl."
Sirius continued, "You should take advantage of the situation. If Lily isn't going, then there will be no-one to see you."
"She has friends, Padfoot ," James sat up again and leaned against his now propped up pillow. "I'd bet you anything they'd be watching."
"Even your broomstick?"
"No."
Remus sighed and put his book on his nightstand. It was already four in the morning, so they obviously weren't going to sleep. Might as well join in, he thought, "Look Prongs, if Lily was that obsessed with you, then she obviously likes you. There is nothing to worry about, because it's not like you would actually date someone in Canada."
"And this coming from a guy who's first kiss was explained to him in a book," James argued sarcastically.
Before Remus could speak, Sirius stood up suddenly and started pacing, "I think I got an idea!"
Peter and Remus groaned, "Oh no…"
"I think we should all go on this trip, so we can help James prove to Lily that he's reliable," he stopped and grinned at his friends. "And just to prove that he can last in all circumstances, we," he pointed to himself, the werewolf and the rat, "will all get a girlfriend once we're there."
"How?"
"We'll find a way for you Peter," Sirius scratched his nose waiting for anyone to object. Not that it mattered. They had no choice anyway.
Remus thought for a moment, "Maybe I should stay with Lily while you're gone-"
Sirius blinked. He was actually expecting James to object. Or at least Peter, "Don't tell me you're scared of girls, Moony?"
"I'm not scared of girls," he explained, "I just don't see any point. No one has ever found me interesting enough."
"Well maybe if you drew your attention away from reading once and awhile, you'd be noticed," James drawled.
"Yah know Moony, Prongs has a point. You don't want to be known as a bookworm forever do you?"
"I'm not going to change my personality so that someone will like me-"
"Just a suggestion, mate," Sirius shrugged, "But we're still going to find you a girl to date."
He wasn't going to get out of this one and so, "Well, then we better start packing. We only have two hours."
"Huh? Why?"
"Because Peter," he stood up and walked over to his suitcase, opening it up, "we have to take a plane to get there. After leaving Hogwarts, we have to act as much like muggles as possible."
Sorry for the short chapter, but I promise that it will get more interesting in the future! Please review and check out my other HP fic! I'll try to update soon!
