Chapter Seven, Party! (part1)
James potter, Harry potter, Remus Lupin and Sirius Black were getting ready for James's party in the sixteen year olds room.
"Ok, that's it what's up with you two?" Sirius asked, annoyed at Remus and Harry who had been acting strange ever since they had their talk.
"Nothings up Siri it's just Remus being an annoying evil person" Harry replied glairing at Remus. The werewolf just stuck his tongue out in retort.
"Nothing my ass Remus has been silently teasing you about god knows what since you to had a talk" James said.
"It seriously isn't any thing important" Harry replied then hit is head against the wall for his choice of words. "Shut it Mooney" he said before Remus could open his mouth to say something.
"Wasn't going to say a word" Remus replied, innocently, to innocent for Harry's liking. James eyes widened as if someone in his head just let him in on the joke then the realisation hit Harry like a ton of bricks
Harry Growling: Godric!
Godric: what I didn't do it I'm innocent
Harry: Oooh if you weren't just in my head I would so kick your furry ass from here into next week
"Ah yay I have black mail material" James announced.
"Not if I kill you" Harry growled.
Harry: Hermy Godric told James who I like.
Hermione: Really? Good going Godric.
Harry: Hey no fair your meant to be on my side. I want my mummy
Hermione: Mums busy at the moment so leave a message after the beep and she will get back to you, beep
"Siri they're all ganging up on me it's not fair" Harry cried.
Helga: so who does that make me
Rowena: And me
Slazar sadistically: I don't give a flying fruit bat about your teenage hormones.
"Meanies" Harry pouted and sat down on the bed.
"So how do I look?" Lily asked Hermione, nervously.
"you look great Lil" Hermione replied. Lily was wearing a black skirt that reached just above her knees and a red cotton halter neck top.
"You really think so?" Lily asked. Hermione sighed at her quickly becoming best friend and rolled her hazel eyes. The girl had some serious elf esteem issues but then again that's probably who Hermione got hers from.
"Lily, seriously you look perfect ok" Hermione reassured the red head.
"Yeah I guess I do" Lily replied. "So what's going on with Harry and Sirius?" she asked.
"Nothing" Hermione answered quickly, way too quickly. "What gives you the impression that some thing is going on between them?" Hermione asked
"Mione you would have to be blind not to notice I mean come on who do you take me for James?" Lily asked.
"I guess your right" Hermione replied. Lily may be her only female friend at the moment but Hermione wasn't about to betray Harry like that then again this was their mother or was. Wow who would have thought that this whole time travel business could be so complicated
Hermione: Harry Lily is questioning me about you and Sirius can I tell her?
Harry: most well every one else knows
Hermione: thanks
"Harry likes Sirius that's what's going on" Hermione answered, straightening up her top. "oh and James knows but don't worry it was only because someone told him" she added.
"Ooooh does this mean I get to play match maker?" Lily asked. Hermione laughed at the red heads enthusiasm. "I just realised something" lily said her brows furrowed in deep thought.
"What?" Hermione asked as she tied her hair up into a high pony tale.
"We're so alike it's scary" Lily answered Hermione bitt down on her lip wondering weather or not to tell her. Why oh why had she have to become such close friends with the woman who was to give birth to her in the future or past or what ever, it was way to complicated.
"Lily…" Hermione trailed off. "Look I want to tell you some thing but I can't right now it's too soon but just so you know there is a reason for us being alike" Hermione said. "And don't worry your not related to James but our ancestors were close friends" Hermione answered. Lily looked deflated, confused and some thing else at once but seemed to accept it.
"Come on let's go, I want to go already" Lily said. Hermione smiled, grateful that her friend hadn't taken the fact that Hermione couldn't tell her why they were alike just yet to heart and followed the other red head bout of the room her hazel eyes sparkling with enthusiasm.
"Room for Potter" James said to Tom the Innkeeper. The group of six sixteen year old teens stood at the bar in the leaky cauldron.
"Just a minute Mr Potter" Tom replied and went to get the key for the room. Tom came back a minute later with a key and handed it to James.
"Thanks Tom, see you latter" the boys shared an identical smirk which made the girls afraid, very afraid.
"Do we even want to know?" Hermione asked, cautiously as they made their way up the wooden staircase.
"Not really actually no you don't" Harry answered.
"Didn't think so" Hermione replied and James let them into a large room with six beds, thankfully.
"Damn and here I was hopping for three double" James joked and winked at Lily. Lily playfully slapped James on the arm in return.
"Be good or you won't get your present" Lily threatened.
"No not the present anything but the presents" James announced dramatically.
"Speaking of presents, here" Harry said passing his 'cousin' a neatly wrapped package. James opened it and found a bundle of grass.
"Ha, ha very funny what do you want for your birthday a leash?" James asked.
"Actually wouldn't mind it actually you know kinda kinky" Harry answered.
"Ewww, bad mental pictures her people" James replied, clenching his eyes shut.
"Anyway moving along" Remus said, wanting to get off the subject of what Harry might find kinky. "This is from me and Hermione" he added.
"Hey no fair they got to by you a joint present" Sirius protested.
"That's because we're going out Padfoot" Remus replied. Sirius stuck his tongue out at the werewolf.
"Don't stick that thing out unless you want it bitten off" Harry joked.
"Maybe I do want it bitten off" Sirius replied. Harry smirked and transformed into a wolf. Sirius just followed and changed into a dog. Lily gasped she knew Harry was an anigami but not Sirius. The two black animals barked happily and circled each other.
After play fighting for about five minutes Harry and Sirius finally stopped and transformed back into humans.
"Who won?" James asked amused from over on the couch he, Remus, lily and Hermione were sitting on.
"Harry" Sirius answered, pouting. Not only had Sirius taken a beating but his ego had also.
"Go me" Harry said doing a little victory dance.
Hermione: You know from our point of view that didn't look like fighting
Harry: Well it was
Hermione: hey what ever you say.
"Ouch" Harry said as he sat down. Sirius looked sheepishly down at his feet.
"Sorry" the black haired teen said apologetically and ran a hand threw his hair to try and flatten it back down
"It's fine I'll go see if someone down stairs can heal it if it is still really sore latter" Harry replied not really thinking about what he was saying since he didn't want Sirius to feel guilty. "Pretend I didn't say that" Harry said once he realised.
"Sure thing" Sirius replied and sat down as well.
"This is another we don't want to know thing isn't it?" Lily asked.
"Yep" Sirius answered. (I'll leave it up to your imagination to what happened)
The hours past and the group relaxed, talked, ate and listened to music. Finally Lily suggested that they should play truth or dare not knowing that there was a magical version of it.
"Ok who first" James asked.
"I'll go" Remus answered. "Hmm… Lily truth or dare?" he asked, smirking evilly.
"Be afraid, be very afraid" Hermione snickered.
"Umm… dare?" Lily questioned.
"Ok I dare you to go downstairs and steal a bottle of fire whisky from the bar" Lily's eyes and mouth widened in shock at the dare.
"But- but that's illegal" Lily protested.
"You know you don't have to worry Lilykins I'm sure you will make a beautiful toad" Sirius said.
"Yeah I'll still love you" James added.
"Fine but if I get caught you're going down with me" Lily huffed and stormed out of the room.
"You don't think she will get caught do you?" Hermione asked concerned.
"Nah we planed this Tom knows and we already payed him for the bottle" Sirius answered.
"Plus a few more" Harry added.
"You four are so mean" Hermione said narrowing her eyes at the four marauders.
"Yep and proud of it" James replied. They all turned to Remus who suddenly found the roof very amusing.
Lily returned a few minutes later with not one but three bottles and narrowed her eyes at the guys.
"You four are so mean" Lily said and sat down on the flour next to Hermione. "Tom told me everything" she added.
"Sorry lils we just wanted to see weather you would take being a toad over stealing them" Remus apologised. Lily glaired at them.
"Just remember to watch your back" lily threatened and got and evil glint ion her emerald eyes. "Sirius, truth or dare?"
"Truth" Sirius answered thinking that was the safe option little did he know that he was playing right into lily's trap.
"Excellent" Lily replied and Sirius went extremely pale due to the fear of what lily was going to ask him. "Who do you have very strong non platonic feelings for at the moment?" Lily asked, smirking. Sirius whispered something but no one heard it. "What was that sorry I didn't here you?" lily questioned.
"Harry" Sirius whispered but only Lily and Remus heard it due to the fact that Lily was next to Sirius and Remus had heightened hearing abilities.
"Sorry I still didn't hear that" Lily replied.
"I SAID HARRY DAMN IT" Sirius shouted and went as red as a tomato.
