Cheated - Chapter One:
It was the sixth year of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for the Marauders. First to arrive on the Hogwarts Express was Peter Pettigrew, he went right into the train and saved a compartment for the rest of his friends. Second to arrive was Remus Lupin, he made his way to the compartment where he found Peter' scent. Then last to arrive was James Potter and Sirius Black, they searched the compartments until they found the compartment with Remus reading his book and Peter finishing up on his homework that was given over the summer.
"Hey Remmy love," said Sirius as he sat on Remus' lap and gave him a long passionate kiss. Peter shrugged and James just smiled.
"I see the lovers really missed each other over break," said James as they went into a full out snog session.
Sirius suddenly stopped kissing Remus and mumbled, "shut up, James," and went back to snogging his boyfriend. Sirius and Remus had been going out since near the end of their fourth year.
"Will you two stop it, and do that later?" James said between gritted teeth. He didn't mind them kissing every once in a while but he did mind it when they did it a little too much, like now. They both stopped snogging and sighed; they didn't want to start the school year with a grumpy James.
"Fine, fine, Prongs just spoil all the fun," replied Sirius agitated by James but he did not move off of Remus' lap. For the rest of the ride to Hogwarts they talked about the events of the summer.
::::::::::: In the Great Hall :::::::::::
"Welcome to another year of Hogwarts, let the sorting begin!" boomed Dumbledore. The Hall doors opened and in came the first years.
"Do you remember when we first came through those doors? said James.
"Yeah, I was almost sorted into Hufflepuff or Slytherin," said Peter. No one was surprised.
"I was almost sorted into Ravenclaw, but no surprise there, I think the only reason I was sorted into Gryffindor is because I am a werewolf" said Remus.
"I, Mr. Prongs am a true Gryffindor, the second that hat hit my head it shrieked Gryffindor" replied James.
"Well I guess I have to say what house I was almost sorted into too, huh?" said Sirius, "I was almost sorted into Slytherin because of my family, but the hat dismissed that thought right away and put me in the best house as you all know, Gryffindor."
"I am soooo hungry, come on I have not eaten in like three hours!" whined Peter as he ran his hands through his mousy brown hair.
"Stop complaining Wormtail, it will be over soon enough," said James. As soon as he said that the last student joined the Ravenclaw table and Dumbledore started his short speech.
"Welcome first years and I would like to remind you all that the Forbidden Forest is called that for a reason, all students who enter will risk death and a month's detention to those who come out alive. And Filch the Care Taker has added a few more items to the list of forbidden items. Let the feast begin!" and with a snap of Dumbledore's fingers food appeared on the table and Peter dived into it making all over.
"Jeeez, Wormtail slow down, it's not going to disappear!" said James as he grabbed some fried chicken.
"To a new school year" said Sirius as he raised his glass.
"To a new school year!" said the marauders in unison as they banged their glasses together and before Sirius and Remus sipped their juice they shared a kiss.
::::::::::: The Next Day at Breakfast:::::::::::
"I have our schedules for this term," said Remus, "we have Defense Against the Dark Arts first, then Transfiguration, Potions, Care of Magical Creatures, History of Magic, and then Ancient Runes. Well this sounds good to me."
"Great, so what are we planning to do to Snivellus this year? Said James.
"Ummm, I don't know something really good we have to get him real' bad this year!" said Sirius.
"Do you guys ever give him a rest? Said Remus as he took a bite of toast and ran his other hand through his long, sandy brown hair.
"Yes, he had all summer without us and now is the best time" replied James as he took a bite of his scrambled eggs that the house elves made.
"Anyways, we will plan on that later. James are you going to still try to get Ms. Lily Evens this year or are you going to finally give up on her?" teased Sirius.
"No way! I'll never give up, you know I love her but she seems to be playing hard to get" James said as he stood up getting ready to go to the first lesson of the year with the Slytherins
"Yeah, yeah Prongs what ever you say, come on Moony lets go." Sirius said, he too got up from the table pulling Remus up by his pale hand.
"To Defense Against the Dark Arts!" Sirius and Remus walked hand in hand Peter and James on either side of the couple. When they got to the class room they sat in the back in their claimed seats.
"I wonder what Professor K has planned for us this year, I hope we do something interesting," just as Remus finished saying this Professor K walked in.
"Today will be review, bit I got permission to teach you the unforgivables as we have a war going on at the current time. SO! Can anyone tell me what the three unforgivables are and what they do?" Sirius, James, Remus, Severus, and half of the Slytherins raised their hands. "Ummm how about Mr. Lupin, Mr. Snape, and then Mr. Malfoy please. Go ahead Mr. Lupin."
"The Imperius Curse, total control, sir"
"Mr. Severus?"
"The Cruciatus Curse, pain"
"And Mr. Malfoy?"
"Avada Kedavra, the killing curse" smirked Lucius.
"Very good 30 points to Gryffindor and 60 to Slytherin. Now the Imperius, Cruciatus, and the Avada Kedavra …"
::::::::::: Later in Potions with the Slytherins again:::::::::::
"Okay today class we are going to be making the truth serum, can anyone tell me what this potion is called? Yes, Mr. Snape?" said Professor Schmitt the potions master, Head House of Slytherin.
"Veritaserum, sir"
"Wonderful, ten points to Slytherin. Now the instructions are on the board, get into pairs and Mr. Pettigrew please do NOT blow up another cauldron." Professor Schmitt spat.
"So Moony do you want to pair up with me?" Sirius said, rubbing Remus's leg.
"Of course Siri." Said Remus, "but you need to remember that I have a hard time because of the smell of the ingredients"
"How could I forget?" They were about half way through their potion when James and Peter's cauldron blew up.
"PETER I said not to put the chopped worms in yet!" yelled James.
"Fifty points from Gryffindor and detention for Messer's Potter and Pettigrew, and no more talking. The rest of the lesson was in complete silence, and no one noticed Severus Snapes secretive glances at one Remus John Lupin.
(A/N: Okay that is it for now I will try to update as soon as possible. I know it is boring now but I am just trying to set things up, so I can write better things. Trust me the story will get better I have some great things planned. I will not have as much class time in the next chapters. Sorry it is short, and if you have any ideas for this story please share them. Even though I have it all planned out doesn't mean I can't add things in. So please Review.)
