"So tonight's the night, eh Moony?" Sirius asked as the four boys headed off to their morning classes.
Remus took a nervous breath. "That it is Padfoot." the boy smiled. "I can hardly wait."
"W-what if it d-doesn't work?" Peter asked.
"Ever the optimist, aren't you Wormtail." Sirius quipped.
Remus just shrugged. "I'll still be in the Shrieking Shack...Just in case." he began. "So if it doesn't work. It'll be like every other month." A sadmess settled over him.
"Keep the faith mate." James patted the boy on the back. "You'll be standing in the full moon's light Moony, with a girl made just for you." he winked at Remus, "two of a kind."
"Now all I have to do is get Angelique to consent." Sirius began. "Hey Wormtail, what did you ever find out?" he finaly thought to ask about the mission he had sent Peter on over a week ago.
Peter shook his head slightly. "N-not much." he began. "Gr-group of g-giggling girls." he practically spat it out. "Angel-lique th-thinks you're n-nice t-to look at."
Sirius smiled happily. "I'm wearing her down mates, I'm wearing her down." 'Arrogant fool' Peter thought. He had heard the tone of the girl's words. The trio, because he knew he wasn't listed among them, was a set of handsome boys, useful only for furthering the girl's own desires for popularity.
"So Lorelei coming along tonight?" James asked Remys. The boy nodded and grinned. "Guess she wants to see her handy work in action."
"You know, " Remus began, "she could make one rethink their thoughts on Slytherins as a whole."
"Did he tell you where he hid it?"
"No." Lorelei replied. "And I don't care to now where it's at either." she regaruded the boy before her carefully. "Why would you care anyway, Severus?"
"I just want to know noone is going to have to worry about anymore running lose." he said, pointedly lookign into the girl's eyes.
"That's really none of your concern now, is it?" Lorelei returned.
"You're going with them tonight." It was a statement, not a question.
"Yes." Lorelei replied, a little taken aback. "I want to make sure it really worked."
"So you have your doubts?" Severus asked. "Perhaps if I were aloud to see the...instructions."
"I thought we were even Severus."
"We are." he replied.
"Good, because I don't want you marking up my personal notebook, like you've done your potions book." she said with a bit of a smirk."
"A vast improvement, I assure you." he countered.
"Now, if you don't mind." Lorelei smiled, "I have places to go, people to see, and a moon to gaze at."
