A/N: Thank you to everyone that reviewed the last chapter!

KcluvsMl: Lily and James did lots of things in the Shack- they conjured up food, they ate , drank, and breathed (Oh, and they made out a lot, of course). And that's why the rating of my story is still G.

" Black"

"Ballycastle"

Sirius found himself face to face with one of his many ex-girlfriends, Morgana Ballycastle. She was almost like a female version of him, because she was pretty, popular and she had been out at least once with almost every non-Slytherin seventh-year boy at Hogwarts. This was probably why he broke up with her very publicly at last year's Yule Ball, much to the delight of his own fan club. They had been on last-name terms ever since. He never would have admitted it to James, but he wasn't sure that he was entirely over her. Unfortunately, his feelings didn't appear to be reciprocated.

"What are you doing here?" snarled Morgana. "It's a free country" he replied, smirking.

Morgana glared at him, then walked away, muttering obscenities under her breath. Sirius sighed. Morgana was the only girl at Hogwarts capable of resisting the one thing more powerful than the Potter charm-the Black charm. Oh well, he thought. I've still got about a hundred more to choose from, two hundred if I wanted someone younger. Still, for a handsome playboy like Sirius, rejection was quite a blow to his oversized ego.

" Over here, Padfoot!" yelled Remus. He was sitting by himself at dinner today, because James was a bit preoccupied with whispering sweet nothings into Lily's ear opposite him, and Peter had mysteriously disappeared. Sirius walked over to Remus and sat down. " Why the long face, Moony?" he said. " It's not full moon for another two weeks.".

"I know" sighed Remus. "But it's a bit lonely now, isn't it? I mean, I'm glad Prongs finally got his girl, but he has been neglecting us a lot lately. And Wormtail hasn't been around much either."

" I know what you mean" replied Sirius. " I never thought I'd say this, but the Marauders are nothing without Prongs. He's what keeps us together."

And if he falls in love tonight

It can be assumed

His carefree days

With us are history

In short, our pal is doomed.

"So it's settled ,then?" said Lily. James looked over at Remus and Sirius and nodded. " How about on Thursday after the Quidditch match? I'll talk to Padfoot, you work on Morgana." He gave Lily a very long, wet goodbye kiss and then walked over to what was left of the Marauders. " Oh hello, Prongs" said Sirius. "How kind of you to finally join us."

Sirius was glaring at him, but James could tell he was trying hard not to laugh. "Sorry, guys" he said apologetically, while putting on his best "I'm-sorry-please-forgive-me" puppy-dog face. Remus grinned. "Oh, all right, we forgive you, Prongs."

"Group hug!" yelled Sirius.

James looked over at where Lily was sitting with her friends. Lily caught his eye and winked, while pointing at Morgana. He nodded and turned to Sirius and Remus. " Tell you what, how about we have a little party on Thursday? In the Room of Requirement. We'll invite all the seventh-year Gryffindors, and maybe a few Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws." Sirius' face lit up as soon as he heard the word "party", but Remus didn't look so convinced. "I don't think this is a very good idea" he said. James rolled his eyes. "Oh, don't be so boring, Moony. I think you could use a little fun- after all, full moon is only two weeks away." Remus groaned. " I can't believe I let you talk me into these things" James grinned. "Excellent! I'll get started on the invitations tomorrow, Padfoot, you can take care of the food and Moony can help me with the guest list .

"Shouldn't someone take care of music and decorations?" asked Remus .James frowned, then hurriedly dragged Remus out of the Great Hall, leaving behind a very confused Sirius.

Once they were in the Gryffindor common room, James sat down in an armchair by the fire and faced Remus, who looked like he was about to explode. " I suppose you're wondering why I had to do that" said James, calmly. It was Remus' turn to roll his eyes. "No, not at all," replied Remus sarcastically. "would you mind telling me why you dragged me all the way up here before I had the chance to finish my dinner?" he yelled.

" Calm down, Moony." said James. " Now, do you remember when Padfoot dated Morgana Ballycastle last year?"

"Yes"

" Do you remember how sad Padfoot was after the Yule Ball?"

"Yes"

"Did we not think that those two were the perfect couple?"

"Yes already!"

"Well, this party is really just a plan to get them back together."

Remus raised an eyebrow. "And how do you plan on doing that?" he said. " Easy" replied James. " We send out all the invitations by owl tomorrow, telling everyone to go to the Room of Requirement at eight o'clock this Thursday after the Hufflepuff-Slytherin Quidditch match, and we give Sirius and Morgana invitations, too. But theirs say seven o'clock instead of eight, which means they'll have the room to themselves for a whole hour." James winked. "And I'm putting a charm on the door so they can't get out". He and Remus looked at each other and within a few minutes they were rolling around on the floor, laughing hysterically.

The next day at breakfast, all the seventh-year Gryffindors, Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws received invitations to an end-of-exams party hosted by none other than the Marauders. The invitation said:

You are cordially invited to an end-of-exams party hosted by

Moony,Wormtail,Padfoot & Prongs

This Thursday at 8:00 in the Room of Requirement.

R.S.V.P by tomorrow.

Of course, the time was slightly different on Sirius' and Morgana's invitations.

News about the Marauders' party spread through the school like wildfire. The older members of the fan clubs were ecstatic, and immediately started planning what to wear. The Slytherins would never admit to being interested in anything run by Gryffindors, so they acted as though they were above such nonsense.

That night, Lily, Morgana, Lily's other friend Skye, James, Sirius, Remus and for once Peter all met in the common room to discuss the party. Morgana and Sirius were giving each other murderous looks, which Lily and James chose to ignore. James stood up on the nearest table and cleared his throat. "All right everyone, can I have your attention, please?" he yelled, while conjuring up a blackboard. He turned around and wrote Food & Drinks ,Decorations, Entertainment, on the board, leaving a space next to each word. "I think we should split up into pairs" he winked at Lily. Remus said, " How about me and Skye take care of the food?" James wrote down, Moony & Skye next to Food & Drinks. " I think you two should wait till the RSVPs come, then tell the house elves to make enough food for however many people are coming. Then, on Thursday night, you can take it to the Room of Requirement." Remus and Skye looked at each other and nodded. " And by the way, you might want to get some Firewhisky from Hogsmeade" whispered James.

By the end of the meeting, it had been decided that Lily, James and Peter would provide the entertainment, and, of course, Sirius and Morgana were in charge of decorations, which Morgana was not particularly happy about, and Sirius would rather Transfigure himself into a Hippogriff than admit that he wasn't entirely over Morgana.

A/N: I know it was a bit sudden of me to introduce a new friend for Lily who ends up with Remus, but I needed an extra person to even up the numbers. And, Remus and Skye don't get together coz that would be way too predictable. I know this whole party thing sounds really clichéd, but I promise it won't be.
