Lily and James Sixth Year War

Unusual Announcement

"phew! Finally! Out of that horrid class!" exclaimed Lily…a little bit louder than normal, which in return caused stares and the teacher glaring. Lily looked down sheepishly.

Sirius stared at lily incredulously.

"What!" asked lily, getting annoyed by the staring.

"Well," shifted Sirius, he knew that Lily was getting close to anger," uhm, its just that I never thought that you'd be one who'd want to leave class. I mean, its its its its not like you," stuttered Sirius. James nodded his head in agreement, eyes still focused on Lily.

Remus, lastly, stumbled out of the classroom. He motioned Lily to come over for a minute. Lily saw the signal and walked over.

"yes?" asked lily with great intrest.

"I got a note saying that we were to meet Dumbledore in his office after this class."

"Cool. We'll head there now!" said lily, a little bit overjoyed by the news (she liked visiting the Prof.)

"Hey, uhm, guys? Lily and I need to go and see Dumbledore. You guys head off to the last class, we'll get there later." Informed Remus about where and Lily were going.

"Are going to come back to the next class with Lily, like together?" asked James, even though he was closer to Lily, and there was less fighting, his love and desire…and jealousy for her was still there and the fact that she like Remus better didn't help him.

"DUH! We're going there together…so of course we're coming back together…unless Dumbledore has something else planned." Said Lily.

"Oh, and don't blame me if I get in a quick snog with him" added Lily as an afterthought (trust me, LOTS of sarcasm)

"Now Lily," said Soph, "I don't think EITHER boys would be happy with that, and plus that girl from Ravenclaw, Jessica…or was it Lisa, if she caught you." Then under her breath she started to mumble "geez..even Remus has lots of girls after him…he can easily switch his crush and that person'll like him back...then again..his choices are better and he is a better than the rest of them..i mean..he doesn't treat girls like them…I hope.

"Soph, really, do you take me in as someone that would actually snog the guy that I consider an older brother to me?" asked Lily, trying to asked shocked.

"Uhm…..you sounded like it?" replied Soph sheepishly.

"Really, I know Lily wont do that rest assured James that if she did I wouldn't let her. Soph, stop questioning your best friend. Sirius…PLEASE stop examing girls! And Lily. We HAVTA go now." urged Remus.

With that the two left, walking quite fast I may say. James watch lilys arse swing before turning around and heading into his next and last class of the day (I know. HUGE obsession. not good). Actually, even with her out of site, James just stood there, entranced. Eventually, Bella dragged him away from the spot and into class just in time before the bell rang.

Dumbledore

Lily and Remus arrived infront of the entrance to Dumbledore's. Remus was still struggling trying to remember the password.

"uh..chocolate frogs!...bertie botts?" still…there was no difference.

Then Lily decided to try muggle styled words, "Vanilla? Chocolate? Fudge!" the door started to move and Lily and Remus entered.

Knock Knock

"Enter" came Dumbledore's voice.

Both walked in and sat down following the hand gestures from Dumbledore. Lily and Remus immediately noticed the extra twinkle in his eye.

"Welcome. I am guessing you both would like to know what you are being called here for?" The two heads nodded.

"well, I just thought of a school activity and would like to present it to you two and ask for your opinions." Smiled Dumbledore.

"But Professor, we are only Prefects, shouldn't you be discussing this with the Heads first?" asked Lily.

"No…you see, this was only a sixth year activity. Don't ask how I thought of it and made it only for Sixth Years, that, not even my ever confusing mind knows." Grinned Dumbledore.

"Uh? Sir? Just what exactly is the activity?" asked Remus, for once feeling special that he was a sixth year and not seventh and how badly he wanted to skip levels.

"That. That is a singing competition. And I was hoping for it to take place tomorrow seeing as to how it is a weekend and you guys will not have any homework because if you are assigned, I will allow the teachers to accept late."

"Wow" was the only thing that exclaimed their mouths, although they were smiling and imagining everything already.

"I believe that I'll take that as a 'yes' am I correct?" asked Dumbledore the eyes seemed to be twinkling now.

Both heads nodded eagerly.

"Ok, I'll have the announcement out at dinner. OH! And you won't need to prepare anything because I will have that all settled."

"Thank You" both chorused and darted out of the office and finally stopped after Dumbledore's office was out of site.

"OMG LILY! SINGING CONTEST! ONLY FOR OUR YEAR! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?" exclaimed Remus a little loud.

"shhhh! Classes are still going on! I know! Its so amazing! Do you think you'll be entering?" asked Lily for she was too overjoyed by the thought.

"sorry" blushed Remus (luckily Lily didn't catch that), "yeah, I bet Padfoot and Prongs would want to too, how about you?"

" Hell yeah! Its just I'm not sure if Soph and Bella will wanna…actually they will, I mean, like me, they are ones to not back down in a contest. So yeah!" answered Lily thoughtfully.

The two started walking slowly, trying to skip the last class when suddenly Remus broke the silence.

"Hey sis? Why do you think Dumbledore decided to hold one of these competitions and I mean, there is already another big event coming up soon?"

"Good question..actually…I don't know. You're supposed to be my older brother, you should be the one that knows this stuff!" countered Lily in a fun way.

"haha! I have a younger sister that is like a sitting duck that knows TWICE as much as me! DAMN! i AM a stupid older bro!" laughed Remus

"haha! No, you're only supposed to be wiser and all…that's it…I think." Lily ended the sentence just as the last class was let out and people rushed towards their common room and the great hall for dinner.

Remus and Lily went straight to the Great Hall since they didn't need the extra trip to the Gryffindor tower which was on the other side of the castle and was a wasted of time to go there for nothing and how they somehow walked themselves about two feet away from the Great Hall.

Great Hall—DINNER

Lily and Remus sat down at their usual stops at the Gryffindor table still discussing the singing competition. When the other four arrived.

"Mind if I can FINALLY join the conversation?" asked Sirius trying to butt into their conversation, again.

"Nope! Sorry. This convo is over!" said Remus.

"Hey! That was my line!" cried Lily, though she smiled.

"Where were you Lily!" cried Bella as she and Soph plopped down on either side of her/

"I know! Passing notes was no fun since it was…missing our third person!" wailed Soph trying to sound like she was crying.

"Moony! I thought you said you were going to bring Lily back! You said you wouldn't steal her! Or even let her snog her!" came James' voice, trying to sound angry and hurt.

"Hey! Its not my fought! I didn't do anything! Dumbledore held us in and we came out with a few minutes left of class so our FEETS led us here…am I right sis?" replied Remus, trying to show how he had NO affection toward her.

"Right you are!" said lily as quick as possible and turned back to her friends.

"AHEM!" cleared the professor trying to get attention. "This notice is mainly for the Sixth Years, but all other years, please keep it down so they may hear. I am going to announce a singing competition for the sixth years. It will be held TOMORROW. Please be ready with your song, instruments and the what not that you need." With that, Dumbledore sat back down as the Great Hall erupted with murmur.

"COOL!" shouted Sirius as he gathered to two other boys to start the discussion, he was a little bit overjoyed and hyper.

Lily also looked ecstatic even though she was notified of this earlier. She turned to her girls and asked what they'd want to do.

"I'm not sure! I mean, Lily come on! People would think we were like that! We're, we're-" started Soph.

"-the hot looking nerds with no interest in things like music." Ended Bella.

"well then we're just gonna haveta prove them wrong!" exclaimed Lily, a little bit down that her friends didn't think highly of the idea.

The two just stared at her.

"You know what? I'm gonna enter that thing for the heck of it! I can still have fun! Whether you guys are in or not!"

"Actually…lets have fun girls! But I'm not singing! I know the drums though, if it may help." Said Bella.

"Ahh…I guess this leaves me no choice. I'm not singing either. I know the guitar, the electric shouldn't be much different."

"GREAT! I'll sing. I actually like singing. So it's all set. What song though?" pondered lily.

"uhm. I'm sorry, but I listen to mostly boy bands and you're a girl, so you most likely wont be singing those songs. The only other I've heard of is Hilary Duff." Said Bella. After the last two words came out, Soph made a noise that made the impression that she was going to barf.

"ok. Thank you Soph. I take that as a 'no'. uhm…I've heard of Ashlee Simpson…and and and…this girl name Lavine or something." Came lily's voice. Obviously still thinking.

"Well, since you don't know who the last person was. I guess we only got Ashlee's songs to use. We really are boy crazy when it comes to bands." Said Bella.

"boy crazy? Did I hear that? i believe that's my cue!" jumped Sirius. The girls just rolled their eyes as James pulled Sirius back into their little discussion.

"Ok. So…what songs do you recomand Lily?" questioned Soph after Sirius disappeared.

"well. I like a lot of her songs. But I only know three songs. The lyrics to them. They are "pieces of me", "lala", and "love me for me"." Said Lily as she counted the songs off her fingers.

"Well…uh. How about we ask the guys?" suggested Bella. But that was quickly crossed off the list after another thought.

"Lily. Which song do you think you can sing better?" asked Soph. trying to solve this the logical way.

" That would be either 'Lala' or 'pieces of me' the other one I'm still a little rough on." Thought lily outmoud while answering Soph.

"Ok…this is getting no where" said soph, still thinking.

" I KnoW!" piped Lily! Both girls stared at her. " We're gonna show those people out there that we aren't perfect hotties that study hard like shit! So I'm gonna sing LALA. It's a little like a song that, uhm, attracts and implies, well it implies you know. Thus, we'll prove that we CAN be wild and different." Both girls stared at lily as if she had gone crazy. But later thought that she was right and they agreed on it. The girls left the table and headed to their dorm to start practicing.

Mean while the boys had decided that Sirius would be the lead singer and James would be on the guitar while Remus took control of the drums. They too had had a hard time deciding which song but in the end settled with the song called "My Alien" by Simple Plan. Soon, they too left the table, to their rooms and start practicing. Honestly. One day notice. Contest. Dumbledore must've been crazy. But still, everyone was excited.

contest…oOo

The contest came soon and, even though it was only for sixth years to compete, the whole school was invited to watch. The Head Boy an Girl were chosen to announce the competitors. Dumbledore also said that there was to be TWO songs. He just didn't say that yesterday. He said his reason for that was to see who had real talent in the music section.

The girls at first were shocked. They had only practiced one song thoroughly and the second one, 'pieces of me' a little bit. But lily said that all they needed was confidence and everything would be okay.

Thus, the competition began. Many many many people entered. Lily and them were after the Marauders for each round, and were always the third to last. The Marauders had decided that for their second song they'd sing "God Must Hate Me", but they too were unsure about their second performance. Soon it was time for Sirius to take the limelight as they walked onstage. The girls gave the boys reassuring looks.

The boys were wearing jeans, a button down white shirt with a black leather jacket over them. This caused a lot of noise from the girls. Sirius grinned grabbed the mic. And signaled the boys to start. All eyes were on the boys. Even Lily's, Soph's and Bella's.

I'm sick of being alone, when are you coming home?
Just a glimpse of your face
I can remember smelling your hair, I'll meet you anywhere
Somewhere that no one can retrace
Somewhere where no one will know our faces
She has two arms to hold me
Four legs to wrap around me
She's not your typical girlfriend
She's my alien
My alien
She knows when something is wrong, when something doesn't belong
She can read in my mind
And she can be assured that with me, there is no conspiracy
Shes not wasting her time
She can take me to the place that she calls home,
in a spaceship that will someday be my own
Please take me to your leader
Tell her I will surrender
I will surrender
She has two arms to hold me
Four legs to wrap around me
She's not your typical girlfriend
She's my alien
My alien
My alien My alien My alien My alien My alien
She has two arms to hold me
Four legs to wrap around me
She's not your typical girlfriend
She's my alien
My alien
She has two arms to hold me
Four legs to wrap around me
She's not your typical girlfriend
She's my alien
My alien
I bought the astranauts kit
Now all I needs a rocket
My love, intergallactic friend
She's my alien

Cheers erupted as soon as Sirius' lips stopped moving. Sirius grinned as Remus and James walked up behind him. Each giving him a clap on the back and smiling like mad. Dumbledore also smiled as he signaled the Head Boy and Girl to introduce the next act.

Lily Soph and Bella were at first jittery, but now excite.

Lily was wearing a black halter top that had slits at the side and came 5cm short of her belly bottom, revealing lots of flesh. She was wearing a pair of tight jeans that were ripped at the knees and had chains hanging down low on her left hip. She was also wearing a pair of hot black heels that were high, but not so high. her hair flowed down her back that ended above her tattoo that was on the back of her left shoulder and was a read rose with the word LOVE entangled around it. Her hair was straight with natural curves and waves in it. She had little make up since she was so beautiful. Some hint of mascara, blush, and light blue eye shadow, while she had on red lipstick that accented her features. Needless to say, she had everyone's attention once she went onstage.

Soph and Bella had on the same style as each other: a tank top with thick straps and a V cut and also stopped above her bellybutton and had slide slits, both were white, allowing Lily to stand out. Their pants were the same as Lily's except their belts were black. Shoes were the same two, except the two wore higher heels. Pretty much, everything was the same as Lily, only some small feature differences, and they did not have a tattoo.

After being announced, the girls passed the boys. The boys saw Soph and Bella first and immediately took to shock their appearances. Then lily passed by. James literally forgot everything and stared at her, eyeing in every detail. Remus looked like he was going to faint, his sister like this! And Sirius, Sirius was also amazed by this and took in her beauty. He was actually half functioning since he knew he couldn't be too entranced so he took and camera and flashed it, knowing that James would treasure it.

Lily and walked onstage, and immediately the whole crowd went quite. The girls and boys stared in shock at her beauty, and total difference between the girls. Soon some boys start to make cat calls and wolf whistles. Then lily and the girls began. James was still staring hopelessly, Remus stopped looking like he was going to faint and started to feel proud of his 'sis' while Sirius couldn't stand it anymore and started to start staring at the girls.

You can dress me up in diamonds
You can dress me up in dirt
You can throw me like a line-man
I like it better when it hurts
Oh, I have waited here for you
I have waited
You make me wanna la la
in the kitchen on the floor
I'll be a french maid
Where I'll meet you at the door
I'm like an alley cat
Drink the milk up, I want more
You make me wanna
You make me wanna scream
You can meet me on an aero-plane
Or in the back of the bus
You can throw me like a boomerang
I'll come back and beat you up
Oh, I have waited here for you
Dont, keep me waiting
You make me wanna la la
in the kitchen on the floor
I'll be a french maid
Where I'll meet you at the door
I'm like an alley cat
Drink the milk up, I want more
You make me wanna
You make me wanna la la
in the kitchen on the floor
I'll be a french maid
Where I'll meet you at the door
I'm like an alley cat
Drink the milk up, I want more

I feel safe with you
I can be myself tonight
It's alright, with you
Cuz you hold, my secrets tight
You do, You do
You make me wanna la la, la la la, la la, la la la la la la la la la
You make me wanna la la, la la la la
You make me wanna la la
in the kitchen on the floor
I'll be a french maid
When I'll meet you at the door
I'm like an alley cat

You make me wanna la la, la la la la
You make me wanna la la, la la la, la la, la la la la la la la la la
You make me wanna la la, la la la la

This song was amazing. No one knew that Lily could sing that good. And how she sang. She sang it with emotion and everything. Everybody was shocked, amazed, stunned, needless to say, Lily had proved that she wasn't just a book worm. The song ended and the cat calls and wolf wistles began again. Dumbledore's smile was now, huge. Prof. McGonagall didn't like how lily sang the song, or the song itself, but still, she couldn't help smiling for lily.

Lily walked offstage and saw how the boys were acting. Remus was still in his right mind to congratulate lily. He walked up to her and gave her a hug and a quick kiss on the cheek before saying 'bravo, you rocked the show up there'

Lily went to the girls and they got together and started hugging and congratulating themselves. Then Remus came over and he pointed to Sirius, he was still staring at the place that Lily had been, mouths open and jaw dropped, if it could go further it would. He finally got out of it and turned and congratulated Lily and gave her a hug. The girls were still giggling uncontrollably. James was still there. Still staring, still entranced. Finally Lily walked over and snapped her fingers infront of him.

"Hey. So? What'd you think?" she asked, smirking.

"you, were, uh,ho,beau,duh, uhm, I mean, Great." Replied James, stumbling over his words. Lily just laughed. " I uh, never knew you could sing that good, and that you could look any more hot-t-t and ss-s-exy and b-b-beautiful." stuttered James, blushing furiously now.

"Thank you. And the last part…uhm, thanks?" lily was also blushing badly. She knew about James obsession with her, but lately, since Remus' bet, she started finding him, attractive…and she started to start liking him! Oh no!

Lily had told her girlfriends about it and they said that she should give it a shot. Since Soph and Bella were also occupied( either with crushes, or the fact they just really aren't single anymore, but I'm not going in there, cuz its gonna take too much time)

Time passed fast as the boys started complimenting, observing, and examining the girls. Remus and lily also got to talking.

"Lily! My LITTLE sister! I would have NEVER dreamed that you'd dress like that!" exclaimed Remus, trying to act appalled.

Sirius decided to FINALLY be able to butt into one of their convos and said "well she does look, hot, sexy, beautiful, and perfect!" Sirius said grinning and looking at lily, up and down. This was not a good idea on his part because what he got was a slap on the back from James, and a playful punch from Remus.

"Honestly Sirius! This is Lily! She is like family to me, please don't talk about her like this infront of me! You know I don't like the way you describe her!" said Remus, trying to sound like a real brother.

"Haha Remus. You told us that she looked like that! and now all you're hearing is your best friend saying it again to you and you thinking that it is like a crime!" cried Bella and Soph nodding along.

"Remus, remus, remus….and you! SIRIUS! Lily's mine!" said James, in a playful yet serious way.

"Don't worry James. Sirius will never be an option for me, no matter how much he flatters me, or tries to at least why, I will never know. Remus and I are too close in a family way and plus he's already emotionally taken," Lily said with a smirk at Remus who started to blush, again, " now, you're only competition would be those people out there" lily pointed at the crowd of boys, smirk still on her face (getting wider, and she also started to blush) and showed no sign of disappearing.

"OH? Lemme test my luck now then! Lily, will you go out with me?" pleaded James, no joking sound or sarcasm.

Lily looked quite surprised at first but then glanced at Remus who glared and winked at her and then proceeded on nodding his head.

Lily sighed and said "yes"

Both girls and Sirius and James were shocked. Well the girls weren't as much, but still. James nearly fell over and Sirius looked as if he was going to faint, coz of happiness.

"W-w-wh-what did you say?" stammered James.

"I said 'yes' that I would go out with you!" smirked lily, acting smart.

"T-t-t-that was t-t-totally un-un-unexpected. B-b-b-but…why?" stumbled James, trying to get his words out.

Sirius, in turn actually did black out for a few seconds, but a minute later, was back to the usual him.

"What do you mean? I said 'yes' because I found out that you've changed and I'm willing to accept your offer, unless you want to cancel it." Said lily. Slight disappointment and happiness in her voice.

"PRONGS! What's your problem! You should be jumping up in joy!" cried Padfoot.

"Okay. So, I'll meet you tomorrow for Hogsmede tomorrow in the common room?" asked James, realizing that his dream would soon come true.

Lily nodded in return and a smile.

James just went crazy after that, and literally jumping for joy. HYPER! Lily watched, amused, along with everyone else and stared at James.

Soon it was time for the boys last one, and Sirius and Remus had to practically drag Jamese where he slowly cooled himself down.

There, Sirius started his final song once more. Calling on more wild screams from the girls down below.

Last night I just wanted to have fun
To go out with my friends
I took my dad's car
I never thought he would find out
But I crashed in a wall
Man I'm dead
I guess it's no use
I'm screwing up ever little thing I ever try to do
I was born to lose
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
God must hate me
He cursed me for eternity
God must hate me
Maybe you should pray for me
I'm breaking down and you can't save me
I'm stuck in hell
And I wanna go home
Last night I had to study for this test
I forgot man I'm dead
And now my brain is bursting out of my head
I can't think I can't breathe
Once again
I guess it's no use
I'm screwing up every little thing I ever try to do
I'm born to lose
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
God Must hate me
He cursed me for eternity
God Must hate me
Maybe you should pray for me
I'm breaking down and you can't save me
I'm stuck in hell and
I wanna go home
So what in the world am I supposed to do?
I never did anything to you
So can't you find something else to do?
God Must hate me
He cursed me for eternity
God Must hate me
Maybe you should pray for me
I'm breaking down and you can't save me
I'm stuck in hell and
I wanna go home
(God must hate me)
I wanna go home
(God must hate me)
I wanna go home
(God must hate me)
I wanna go home
(God must hate me)
I wanna go home
(God must hate me)
You can't save me
God Must hate me now

Sirius grinned and waved to his MANY fans and joined the boys backstage. There was a two minute break between and the boys outside grew impatient and started to chant for lily. When she finally went on, the crowd, too went while, this time, with boys.

1,2,3,4- she signaled for the girls to start.

On a Monday, I am waiting
Tuesday, I am fading
And by Wednesday, I can't sleep
Then the phone rings, I hear you
And the darkness is a clear view
Cuz you've come to rescue me
Fall... With you, I fall so fast
I can hardly catch my breath, I hope it lasts
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you know me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
I am moody, messy
I get restless, and it's senseless
How you never seem to care
When I'm angry, you listen
Make me happy it's your mission
And you won't stop til I'm there
Fall... Sometimes I fall so fast
When I hit that bottom
Crash, you're all I have
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you know me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you known me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
How do you know everything I'm about to say?
Am I that obvious?
And if it's written on my face...
I hope it never goes away... yeah
On a Monday, I am waiting
And by Tuesday, I am fading into your arms...
So I can breathe
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you know me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
Ohhhhh
It seems like I can finally rest my head on something real
I like the way that feels
Ohhhhh
It's as if you've know me better than I ever knew myself
I love how you can tell
Ohhhhh
I love how you can tell
Ohhhhh
I love how you can tell
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me
All the pieces, pieces, pieces of me...

Lily walked offstage with the girls each hugging each other. The boys, now used to the girls attire and lily's voice, were now able to come over with the hugging the girls were still doing. Like Lily and Remus, the girls and Lily also had a strong connection. They were there for each other. Just like close family. Honestly, they'd hug and kiss each other's cheek, sometimes scaring younger students and causing others to think that they are lesbians, or at least gay. But with them dating, it was crossed out, though Sirius still teased them about it.

The girls and now Remus were still hugging and congratulating themselves. Remus walked over and gave the hugging group a squeeze. Sirius saw and bounded over and shouted 'GROUP HUG!' and dragged James over and practically slamming him into Lily's back, though she or he didn't mind though James was a little uncomfortable. Sirius, being the one with the longest arms with James, grabbed hold of both of James' hands and pulled them in until Soph's voice squeaked out underneath the hug.

"Sirius honey, you know we appreciate the group hug you've made, but your hurting me and I think Lily's choking and Remus is sorta paralyzed. Bella is ok, I think at least."

Sirius quickly backed away as Remus finally moved one of his numb arms and Lily collapsed to the ground gagging and coughing like mad. James rushed over and conjured up a cup of water and gave it to her to drink.

Lily took the drink happily and gratefully and drank it quickly and gave James a quick hug and said Thanks.

(a/n: don't ask, but I think I'm hug-y today…I don't know why. Oh and I really like the word hyper because I get hyper a lot. Lol)

Prizes were handed out. The boys got best boy band. The girls got best girl band and best act overall. The girls and boys both also tied for loudest cheer from crowd. Both groups were happy with there awards and walked back to their dorms, chattering away happily. With lily and james on better terms, everything else was just dandy and peachy.

As Lily and Sirius started to walk out, the crowd, both girls and boys (for Sirius and lily, figure out which gender is for who. I do hope your not that stupid) flooded towards them. Lily had about 10 boys ask her out for Hogsmede the next day, Sirius same. Lily though, already booked with plans, refused them. After the tenth one, the other boys sorta got the idea that she'd say no and gave up, though few still tried to test their luck.

Sirius, too, was asked out many times, and yet, said no. Amazingly. He, Soph, Bella, and Remus had planned to have this trip together and then if they got bored, they'd track down Lily and James and try to get them together.

Sirius, Soph, and Bella, also would try to get Remus and Jessica together. Those three have a matchmaking packed Hogsmede trip.

Remus, not knowing about the other three's plan, knew that he had exactly 3 days before it was two weeks before the Christmas Ball, and exactly 3 days before Lily would fill in as matchmaker and 3 days to get humiliated and loose 5 galleons. Remus was definitely looking forward, with nervousness at least.

The six trekked their way back into their dorms, sometimes making small talk on the way, otherwise, it was all silent. All were exhausted by the competition and right now only wanted to fall into their bed and snooze away.

And that is exactly what they did.

A/n: ok, this chapter wasn't that humorous, I think. I FINALLY got it done. I need to thank 'hpandfriendsruletheworld' for the idea of a singing competition. the next chapter will be updated after Valentines Day, and before the 21 of February. I'm going to Taiwan for a week, and I don't have internet access there so im really sorry.

Also, it seems to me that this isn't really a war, but I'm too damn lazy to change it. So sorry. Please review.
