Chapter 4: Clubbing
The weeks snailed by after Lily's second outburst at James. The seventh years were piled with Transfiguration, Potion, and Charms essays. They were also expected to dedicate an hour or two per night studying the stars and the constellations for astronomy. The seventh year's brains were about to explode and most students had dark circles under their eyes. James and his fellow marauders were so angry that they were on the brink of playing a trick on the teachers that would teach them a lesson.
The weather had also taken a turn for the worse. The once sunny skies became covered with fat, dark rain filled masses. Seven days a week, rain, sleet, or hail pounded the grass and the concrete. The once erect and immaculate flowers were now wilted and covered in dirt and needed the sunshine to rejuvenate them and make them alive again. Students' tiredly dragged their bodies across the hallways as though they might collapse at any moment. The smiles were wiped off their face and were replaced by scowls and dark circles. Students, especially girl, became extremely sensitive and were always on the brink of tears. A small thing such as a fail on a test or a loss of a precious lipstick would cause them to go over the edge and cause them to burst into large sobs that would rack their body. They would cry over everything; the workload, the stress, and their problems.
The weather seemed to influence James especially. It seemed to mirror his internal emotions. To add to James' woes, he and Lily had barely spoken a word to each other during Head duties. James tried to make polite conversation but Lily politely avoided his attempts by curtly answering only 'yes' or 'no'. Their three hours of head duties were quite and solemn, the only words 'yes', 'no' and 'thank you' when James would politely open the door for Lily. Their promenade would end in emotionless goodnight. Lily would sweep to her dorm without a backwards glance, James staring mournfully after her.
He would then proceed to his room, where he would undress and stomp over to his bed. He would climb in sullenly, pull the covers up to his chin, and stare at the deep maroon velvet coverings on top of him. He sorrowfully recalled the day's events and how Lily couldn't bear to spend even a second over the necessary time needed. His mind was filled with regret and remorse as he wished he hadn't cursed Snivellus that day. Such thought would fill James with anger and self-hatred. He yanked his pillow from under his head and angrily punched the crap out of it as though his life depended on it. After his knuckles were bruised and worn, he would place the pillow under his head and doze into a fitful sleep. He would toss and turn, his mind full of thought of Lily dating Lucius and Snape and would wake up in fits gasping for breath, covered with sweat, and shaking with cold. He would lay in bed slowly calming down his rapid heartbeat. His nights were often spent in misery and self-punishment. On the outside James was the expected Marauder; happy, carefree, and mischievous. But on the inside, he was not as happy, sullen, and remorseful. There was only one person who could get rid of these feelings and that was Lily.
Two weeks later
Two week later, the burdening homework given to the seventh years was lessened with the arrival of the week break before the Halloween dance. For a change, the hallways were filled with an excited chatter about upcoming plans as opposed to the long list of essays and projects. Students' voices were filled with excitement that had been suppressed by load of assignments. No longer were they husky and monotone from lack of sleep. Their laughter echoed throughout the stone and marble hallways. The light shined through the cracks of the window and created columns of sunlight on the immaculate floors.
Even the weather new 'vacation' was approaching. The dark, rain-filled clouds parted revealing a light blue sky dotted with fluffy, white clouds. The flowers slowly left their budded masses of petals and blossomed once more. The lawn became lush once again replacing the yellow over watered sheets with soft, lush green grass. A soft breeze was blowing, sweeping the small hairs of the lawns and petals off to one side and then straightening them again. Students' hair rippled in the breeze and carried their laughter across the expansive courtyards. Students could now be seen strolling in the field with their friends or special ones. Couples would be cuddled underneath blossoming trees kissing or holding hands. Other people would be having outdoor picnics on the lawns or just enjoy the nice weather.
One day into the week of vacation Lily and Rachel in the dorm bored out of their minds, around ten o' clock that night. Lily was dressed in a white spaghetti strap and a light blue pajama bottoms with clouds on them. Rachael was dressed in a small pink lacy gown. Lily was kicking her bedpost with the force increasing every time.
"I wanna go do something--something fun and daring," Lily whined kicking the bedpost so hard that it fell and crashed on Lily legs. She yelled in shock and surprise and quickly sat up. She cursed all her swear words until she ran out of breath and started kicking her mattress. Rachael meanwhile stared at Lily trying very hard trying to control her laughter and watched her bemused. Rachel nodded but didn't say anything for a few minutes, until a slow smile spread across her lips. It eventually grew until she was rolling around the floor in laughter. She cracked up harder noticing Lily' disgruntled face. She suddenly stopped and sat up.
"Now what?" Lily said noticing the grin. "I know that grin, what are you thinking?"
"Hey how about going to that club in Hogmeade. It's new and I heard there are hot guys?" Rachel said looking over at her friend waggling her eyebrows.
Lily smirked and yelled, "Let's go girlfriend!"
Lily and Rachael quickly sprang from their spots. Lily quickly scrambled from her bed her foot pain forgotten and a huge smile plastered on her face. She skipped and twirled to her closet dresser overjoyed at the prospect of leaving her boring old homework filled room. She went to her closet started pulling all her clothes out mixing and matching her pants and cropped tops and belts and accessories. Rachael followed suit. Within seconds, their room was a whirlwind of clothes….
Meanwhile in the Boys Dormitory
Just like Lily and Rachael, James and Sirius were lounging around on the floor playing exploding snap. Finally James threw his pair of cards down in Sirius' face and stumbled to the window. A second later he heard a boom and snapped around to see a bruised Sirius. James fell on the floor choking with laughter. Finally, James' clutched his stomach and swallowed his laughs when a furious Sirius threatened to hex the daylight out of James.
"There's got to be something to do around here." James shouted exasperatedly running his hands through his hair.
"I just want to go and let loose." Sirius said looking out the window. " Hey I know! "How about we hex the crap out of Snivelly" he exclaimed his face breaking into a megawatt smile. His smile quickly vanished when he noticed the sour expression that graced James' handsome features. Sirius deflated and patted James' shoulder comfortingly. The boys say in silence for a few moments taxing their brains for a hot plot to chill. (LOL)
"Wasn't there a new night club opening down in Hogsmeade over the summer?" James asked looking up at Sirius breaking the quiet, excitement shining in his eyes.
Sirius looked thoughtful for a minute, "Yah, ummm ', I think it was called " Glowstick."
They both sat in silence for a minute digesting the information and then, identical grins spread across their faces and they quickly got out of their seats to get ready. They crashed together and James and Sirius fell on the floor. They saw stars in midair and then drunkenly staggered up the stairs.
An hour later at the club
Lily and Rachel carefully walked down the sloping grounds along the edge careful not to fall down on their heels where the shadows of trees hid them from the moonlight flooding over the grass. The thought of getting caught evaporated from their minds as they excitedly let their brains wander to the sexy boys and the sensual songs. And the fact that Lily was head girl and Rachel was a prefect still occupied a small part of their minds but this wasn't about responsibility, this was about letting loose and having fun.
They stepped into Hogsmeade and slapped each other a quick five. Lily and Rachel were held in high esteem for top grades and being responsible, but every once in a while their wild side needed a chance to come out and play a prank or let loose and have fun--only they never got caught.
Lily was dressed in a black skintight sleeveless one-strap shirt that ended a little above Lily's belly button. Over the right shoulder with the left sleeve hung to a little below her shoulder and extended down to her wrist which ended in ruffles. Her legs were clothed in skin-tight black suede jeans that accentuated her curves. On her feet was a pair of black, cloth stilettos.
Rachael was dressed in an extremely low-cut wine colored halter top. Her straps were 4 thin spaghetti straps that were tied at the nape of her neck. It ended an inch above her belly-button. Her legs were clothed in amini lack shirt. Her legs were in a pair of knee-high black leather boots. Her hair was curly and held off by a barette.
Lily and Rachael arrived at the club their moods lifted and their bodies in the mode to dance. They strutted their way to the door and showed the doorman their identification cards. In Hogsmeade the legal age to drink was 16.Upon entering the club, Rachael and Lily both voted to chug a few drinks before hitting the dance floor. Rachael twisted her curvaceous figure around the dancing figures to get to the other side while Lily went to the room to place their coats.
At the counter, Rachael asked the bartender for 2 fire whiskeys. The bartender seemed to be around 18 according to Rachael. He had light blond hair and a lock of his gorgeous hair flopped upon his handsome face. His arms were well built as well as his abdominal muscles. When Rachael asked him for he drinks, he turned around and poured the whiskeys. Once the machine was filled the cups, he turned and stared at Rachael. While Rachael surveyed the crowd through her blue eyes searching for Lily, his eyes were exploring as well. He ran his gaze over her dark brown hair with light brown highlights. He let his gaze lower down her silky white neck, then to her chest. He let his eyes linger there for a few minutes and then unconsciously licked his lips. He could see her cream, white, flat skin of her stomach exposed between her shirt and her skirt. He was quickly filled with lust for her. He then knew that he wanted her and he would do anything to make her his.
Rachael managed to find Lily and catch her eye. She waved her to her and then turned her gaze back to the counter. The bartender quickly reverted his gaze back to the glasses…which were overflowing. Rachael stared blankly at the mess for a moment shocked and then burst out laughing. She clutched her stomach and fell on a stool trying to control her outburst. She threw her head back exposing her neck and chest that was covered by her hair. The bartender started laughing as well. He stared at her open mouth and it took every ounce of him not to grab her and place his tongue in it. He hungrily stared at her flesh and ran his gaze over it. He needed her. He wanted her. After the laughter died down, he apologized and re-poured their whiskeys. By that time, Lily had arrived and asked what all the commotion was about.
Once Lily arrived, the bartender handed them their drinks with a flourish. He introduced himself as Brad. He said that he worked there a pastime job to support his tuition at a wizarding college. Rachael and Lily then introduced themselves. After the girls swallowed the last drop of their whiskey, they stood up. Rachael stretched her arms above her head n the process lifting her shirt which as long as a little more than her breast line. Brad craftily decided that this would be the best way to make Rachael his. He would go by the simplest plan. Get her drunk and then pull her in a room and make love to her. He smiled evilly to himself and decided to get his plan rolling.
He stood up and whipped off his apron. He flung it on the ground and bowed like a prince to Rachael. He held out his hand and asked for the next dance. Rachael giggled and shyly accepted his hand. Before he pulled her on the dance floor, he yelled for his fellow bartender to come over. Brad introduced him as 'Orlando my best friend.'
Orlando strutted over to Lily and hungrily surveyed her ample figure. He shot Brad a glare that clearly said " Oooo, what have we here." He smiled a clearly make smile as Lily and held out his hand. Together, in coupled Brad and Rachael and Orlando and Lily hit the dance floor. The first few songs were casual and the couples maintained a decent space apart. However, the songs slowly became seductive and sensual. Lily and Rachael slowly twisted their way closer to their boys.
Unknown to Lily and Rachael, two boys had arrived at the scene and were staring at them across the club. James was dressed in a white top that hugged his muscles tightly and had a red and gold plaid jacket that was left unbuttoned, with a pair of loose jeans and a pair of old tennis shoes that set off his outfit perfectly his hair was its usual self, messy yet sexy. Sirius was dressed in faded jeans and a white undershirt with a worn leather jacket. Needless to say girls started fawning over them the moment they stepped foot in the club.
James had his eyes in an expression of wrath and murder. His hazel eyes were burning with such hatred that a fire had no comparison. He was flexing his muscles and breathing heavily. Next to him, Sirius was doing the same thing but with Rachael.
The next thing made James' and Sirius' blood boil. A sinfully seductive song stared blaring out the speakers and Lily and Rachael had reached up and grabbed the boy's necks. They thrust their hips in time with the music. Steadily the boys had being handing them vials filled with super-alcoholic beverages. Brad smirked and slipped his hand under her shirt and massaged her flesh. He reached up and untied one of the strings that held her halter in place. He ran his finder down her neck emanating a moan. Orlando slowly held Lily's hips and started massaging the skin exposed between her shirt and pants. He moved his thumb in sensual circles on her navel. This made James' maaddddd. He stood up abruptly, knocking his drink all over the bartender in the process. Sirius put a hand on his shoulder and stood up as well shaking with anger.

Orlando and Brad slowly lifted her heads and nodded at each other. James and Sirius exchanged looks of horror as the boys exchanged looks of lust. They quickly nodded at each other and set off across the dance floor. By this time, one of Rachael straps was open and there was large blue and black hickey on her neck. Brad had pushed her head back was ravaging her neck. Rachael was moaning as his hands explored her stomach and chest. God, I think I've watched wayyy to many R rated sex movies..blah Orlando was slowly pushing Lily towards the room. Don't need to state WHAT he plans on doing

James and Sirius sprinted the rest of the floor and Sirius yanked Brad off of Rachael neck. He punched Brad squarely in the jaw who keeled over. Sirius quickly slung Rachael over his shoulder and carried her out of the club.
Meanwhile, James put a hand on Orlando's shoulder that was inconspicuously trying to untie Lily's ties on the back of her shirt. He yanked him back and slammed his fist in his face. He then proceeded to kick Orlando in the groin who doubled up in pain. James took the opportunity to pick up Lily by the waist and carry her out of the pub.
Outside
Rachael and Lily were too drunk by now to tell who had taken them out of the pub. They screamed and yelled and kicked the poor guys' backs and shoulders until they threw them on the grass. Rachael started to scream but her vomit beat her to it. Rachael stumbled and all her alcoholic beverages pouring out he mouth one by one. Sirius knelt beside her and pushed her hair out of her eyes. A few feet away, James was doing the same to Lily.
A few minutes later when the retching had died down, Sirius and James looked at each other on what to do.
" Dude, Pads. I think we should take them to our dorm. Otherwise we'll be thrown down the stairs by that messed up staircase of their. '
Sirius agreed and the two boys picked up their girls with the utmost care and carried them back up the grounds of Hogwarts. The girls were too weak to protest and fell asleep on the way. Upon arriving, the boys staggered into their dorm, laid the girls on the bed and tucked them in. The boy, too tired to change, collapsed on the bed next to the girl and fell asleep.
The next morning
Lily crinkled her eyes and a massive headache hit her temples. She groaned and fidgeted in the bed but a masculine voice mumbled for her to syop it. Lily sniffed and then back when her eyes flew open. THERE WAS A MAN IN HER BED! She sat up staright suddently wide awake, her headache gone. She snapped her head around and saw…
