Allie: Your reviews are the best. I try to update as soon as I can but I also have my homework to do and I'll be surprised if I post this on Monday or earlier.

MiSs WeSrHoFf HeRsELF: I love Orlando Bloom too, shame I don't have his number or e-mail address. ;-(

Immy: lol. Here's another chappie for you.

Amour-Lily: Yes, Lily has acted foolishly. But then again, there has to be some drama and angst in this fic or otherwise it'll be a fluff! Not that I have anything against fluffs, personally I love reading practically any hp fics that are written nicely, even if it only has 5 reviews!

Jackie: It feels good that I put a smile on someone's face.

LeggyGryffindor02: I'll read your fic in a sec...I really wanna know how bad it is...or how good it is...hmmm...

Horsecrazyjim: here's some more, enjoy,

Fath8252: My guess is that you really liked this chapter. That's good. Lol. I got a 56 on a math test. I hate the stupid gifted math program. I thought I was gonna get an A too...but...#shudders# I hate the person who invented math.

Prongs is mine: then B it is. Oh, and I love your nick, very nice. And a bit possessive too...

Chapter 19

I'm Sorry

STACY'S POV...

"Stacy, where are you dragging us?" asked Lily.

"Somewhere where we can talk without being interrupted." Replied Stacy.

"O-kay." Said Maria slowly.

"Why do we need to talk?" asked Lily.

"Why you ask? Because this has gone far enough." Said Stacy.

"What has gone far enough?"

"Okay, we're here." Said Stacy. She showed the two wondering girls through the door of an empty classroom. "Now what's going on?"

"What is going on?" asked Lily.

"Lily, stop playing stupid." Said Stacy.

"She can't since she really is stupid." Said Maria, smirking.

"Hey! At least I'm not a baby who's afraid to admit that she has feelings for a boy." Said Lily.

The two glared at each other.

"Okay, this has got to stop." Said Stacy.

"What has got to stop?"

"The relationship insults. Your relationships have nothing to do with this."

"Oh yes they do, they have everything to do with this." Said Lily.

"What? Do you both like James or Remus or something?" asked Stacy confusingly.

"No." replied both at the same time.

"Then what is it?"

"She's mad because I refuse to get back together with James." Said Lily.

"And she's mad since I haven't told Remus how I felt about him." said Maria.

"And how do you feel about him?" asked Stacy.

"I really like him...but—

"You don't wanna admit you like him." said Lily.

"And you're too stubborn to admit that you miss James." Said Maria.

"I do not!" said Lily. "Look," she took out her notebook, "See no pages with James' picture." She flipped the book.

"Yeah right." Sneered Maria.

"Shut up Orad."

"Shut up yourself."

Stacy sighed. "Is this what the whole fight has been about?"

"Yeah."

"Yup."

Stacy shook her head. "You guys really surprise me sometimes. I thought you knew better than to fight over and try to control each others relationships."

Lily and Maria paused. They had finally realized how stupid their fight really was.

"I'm sorry. No— me first." Both of them said.

"I shouldn't try to push you into asking Remus out." Said Lily.

"And I need to stop trying to get you back together with James." Said Maria.

"I'm sorry." Both of them said at the same time. They hugged.

"Finally!" exclaimed Stacy. "I was really getting sick of the name calling and ignoring each other."

Lily laughed. "I was getting sick of it myself."

"Me too." Agreed Maria.

"Friends?" asked Lily.

"Friends." Maria.

"So......" said Maria. "What do we do now?"

"Well, we can sit here and do nothing or we can study for the N.E.W.T.S." said Lily.

"Sit here and do nothing." Said Maria.

"Or we can go to Hogsmeade." Said Lily.

"How?" asked Stacy. "Sneak in?"

"No. Head Boy and Head Girl are allowed to go to Hogsmeade every weekend." Said Lily.

"Then Hogsmeade it is." Said Stacy.

-----------

"So what do you wanna do?" asked Sirius.

"Well we can study." Suggested Remus.

Sirius choked on the Chocolate Frog that he was eating. "Study? I have never heard anything more scandalous. What kind of weird sick twisted person studies on the weekend?"

"I study on the weekend." Said Peter.

"Well you're a special case." Said Sirius.

"I study on the weekend." Said Remus.

"You're a nut crack Moony. There's no hope for you." Said James playfully.

"Well then we can do nothing or—

"Hey!" said Sirius. "I have an idea. This weather is perfect for..."

"Quidditch!" yelled James triumphaly.

"Oh lord." Sighed Remus.

"Who's in?" asked James.

"Me!" said Sirius.

"I guess I could watch." Said Peter.

"Well? Moony?"

"I'll play." Said Remus.

"Good."

The group got out their brooms and went down to the Entrance Hall, chatting happily.

"Potter, Black, Lupin, Pettigrew, where do you think you are going?" asked McGonagall.

"We're going to play Quidditch." Answered James.

"Well then remember that your first detention will be tonight at 8 with Professor Binns. Make sure that you bring a quill and ink. Lots of ink."

"Why, Proffessor, what are we gonna do?" asked Sirius, frowning.

"You'll see." McGonnagal said and walked away.

"Detention with Binns, piece of cake." Said James.

"She said bring ink and a quill." Said Sirius. "Wonder for what."

"We're probably gonna write 'I will be nice to the stinky, smelly Slytherins and not play pranks on them' like about 500 times." Said Remus.

"Piece of cake." Said James again.

Peter looked scared. "My grandma used to do that. She had me write 'I will not forget my pants outside' 1,000 times. I couldn't move my wrist for a month."

"Bullshit, we are almost adults, they are not gonna make us write that." Said James.

"You sure?" asked Peter uncertainly.

"Of course. They are not gonna treat us like little kids."

Peter breathed a sign of relief. They went on to play Quidditch, certain of themselves that their Detention would not be that bad.

How very wrong they were.

---------

"Owww, my hand hurts." Whined Sirius.

"Your hand hurts? That's nothing, I can't even feel mine." Said James.

"Well, it's not that bad." Said Remus.

"Not that bad? NOT THAT BAD? This is HELL!" exclaimed Sirius.

"Moony, you're used to writing this much, your DADA notes are longer than this, but us— said James.

"That's another story." Finished Sirius.

"Come on boys, no chit chat. You have a whole lot more writing to do." Said Professor Binns.

James groaned.

Professor McGonagall seemed to have come up with the most horrible punishment of all. Professor Binns needed an outline and a summary of the book, History of Magic so McGonagall volunteered to have the Marauders do it. It was just plain torture to the Marauders to have to read every chapter, make an outline about it, and summarize it. Remus was the only one that was close to finishing. The rest were barely half through.

"This is so boring." Said Sirius.

"Tell me about it. We should not have to do this." Said James.

"Just grit your teeth and read the damn book." Said Remus.

"This is injustice. They have no right."

"I'm so tired." Moaned Peter.

"Same here."

"Ditto."

an hour passed...

"done." Said Remus.

"You suck." Sirius glared at him.

Remus smiled meekly.

two hours...

"Still not done?" asked Remus.

"No."

"Why the hell are you knitting?" asked James.

"I wanna see how long this rag will get before you finish writing." Said Remus.

"Ha ha ha." Said James sarcastically.

five hours later...

"DONE!" Sirius cried in triumph.

Remus was still knitting with his wand. A/n: HA! Did you actually think Remus could knit? Gotcha!

"Wow, you're done, cause this things getting quite long." Said Remus, pointing at the knitting.

"That's knitting?" asked Sirius, scrunching up his nose. "That looks like a-a stretched out hat."

"I'm done, oh yeah, oh yeah..." sang James, putting his quill down and dancing around the room. Sirius joined him. they started doing this weird dance.

Peter scribbled some stuff. "Done." He said.

Binns came in and took their papers. "Ahh...excellent." McGonagall came in after him. she took the papers from him and looked at them. "Tsk tsk tsk, Mr. Pettigrew, you will have to redo yours. Professor Binns, do you need these outlines?"

"Oh no, you can keep them." Said Binns. "I don't need them. I have my own."

"What?" asked Sirius.

"All that work for nothing?" asked James.

"It's called detention." Said McGonagall.

"Yep." Said Sirius darkly.

James face lit up. "Professor, would it be possible to trade in our 4 months of Detention into some extra-culicular activity?"

"Well...it could be possible." Said McGonagall.

"Well? Can we do that?" asked James.

"Tel you what. If you make breakfast, lunch, and dinner with the houselves for a week, then you will have no more detentions."

"Great." Said Sirius.

"It's a deal." Said James.

"Okay." McGonagall turned to leave but then stopped. "Uh...you are aware that you actually have to cook? I'll have the elves aware that you will not just sit and pig out in the kitchen, you will have to cook."

Sirius choked. "Professor, I'll set the school on fire if I come near a stove."

"Let's hope you don't."

"Uh, can we just take our 4 months of detention?" asked Remus. "I don't cook."

"You don't have much of a choice. Starting next Monday, you are gonna cook with the house elves. You can go to your Dorms now."

The Marauders left.

"This sucks."

"That's for sure."

"Well hey, at least we don't have detention anymore." Said James.

"Detention is better than this." Said Sirius.

"Nu-uh."

"Uh-uh."

"Who cares? At least it's only for a week." Said Remus.

"Its gonna be a week of hell and nightmares."

QZQZQZQZQZQZQZQZQ

A/n: Done. Finished. Personally, I thought that it was funny. And don't you think it's very cruel of the professor to make them cook? Oh well, it'll be more laughs for us!
