A/N: Sorry for the delay! I find it easier to write at 11 at night, so I haven't been writing much. So it snowed today! 6" of the white fluffy stuff! I love the snow! Anywho I would like to thank Emrisah. I totally agree, Sirius mmm, mmm. I need to know if any of my characters need tweaking. You were my first official reviewer so this chapter is dedicated to you! (Yes that is how excited I am to have a reviewer!) Enjoy!

Chapter 2:Day dreamers and compulsive liars

"Wow James! This is really great!" Clover was gazing around the Astronomy Tower.

James had put red tinted glass baubles over the torches and set a table for two in the center of the room. He had a cocky grin plastered to his 'make you melt' face; it hadn't been as much trouble as Clover thought.

James walked to the table and pulled her chair out for her. "You're such a gentlemen James! I don't how Lily can hate you, you're so wonderful!"

"Hmmm, yes well, some people are just blind to perfection." If Lily had heard that, he thought, she would probably start throwing darts at me in an attempt to deflate my head.

"You are sooo right James!" Jeez could Clover be anymore of a kiss up (haha pun, bad one but a pun none the less)? And did she have to say his name every five seconds?

Clover was telling him something about her sister when he started to drift. A vision of Lily's amazing face and flashing eyes popped into James' head. She looked stunning when she was angry…Wait a second! What the hell did I just think? I may like her, but seriously, what was that?

"James? Are you okay? James?

"What…Oh, oh yeah. What were you saying?"

She started talking again and James decided to drop her fast. Huffelpuffs are more interesting then her.

In the Common Room earlier that evening.

James and Clover were leaving the Common Room. Unbeknownst to them, they were being watched by three young ladies. Lily, Jen, and Hannah to be exact.

"Doth mine eyes deceive me, or art thou gazing after sensual Sir Potter?" Hannah asked mischievously.

"Yea-NO! What, NO WAY! Doth mine eyes deceive me or are you saying crazy things?" Lily, apparently, had been caught completely off guard.

"You do realize you can't actually see my words, right?" Hannah said dryly. Before Lily could reply to that particular comment, Jen spoke up.

"I can count my molecules!" She said in an awed voice, completely out of the blue.

"Hannah…Did she escape from Mungos?" Lily said in a scared voice.

"I don't know…" Jen was now humming to herself in an off key tone. "I'm going to the Library. Have delicious dreams of beautiful Mr. Potter!" Hannah screamed as Hogwarts, a History hit her on the back of the head.

As Hannah left, Jen who was quite alone began to waltz around the room.

Over in the corner Sirius snickered to Remus, "I didn't think the potion in her goblet would be that strong!"

"Sirius! You said it wouldn't be that bad! What were you thinking?" Remus said in an exasperated tone.

"Oh, chill out Remus! We all know that you have huge crush on her. You don't need to worry, if things get out of hand, I'll give her the antidote."

"You'd better, both Lily and I are prefects, so if I don't give you detention she will!" While this was going on Jen's situation had gotten worse.

"Lily…" Jen said as if she were drunk. "Lily, I don't feel so well…" With that she promptly fell to the floor with a thud. Remus and Lily raced to her side, with Sirius close at their heels.

"Sirius, I think this is a bit out of hand!" Remus said.

"I think you're right." He then poured a pinkish liquid into Jen's mouth.

"What the HELL did you do to her?" Lily exclaimed.

"Chill, Lils, she'll be fine in the morning."

"Sirius grab me your broomstick." Remus ordered.

"Why?"

"So I can bring her to her room." Remus said as if stating the obvious.

"Wha-Oh…ok." Sirius disappeared up the stairs.

"Is he sure she'll be okay?" Lily asked.

"Yeah… I think so. He may be slightly off his rocker, but Sirius isn't stupid." Lily snorted and Remus laughed.

Sirius came back in a minute and handed the broom to Remus. "I'll just bring her up and come back down." Jen groaned and gave them all a small smile.

Then she closed her eyes again and drifted back to unconsciousness.

Hannah was entering the Library, trying to make sure that her skull wasn't cracked, when she ran into none other than Severus Snape.

With that she immediately fell on her butt and knocked the lanky boy into a table.

The enormous pile of books he'd been carrying scattered across the ground.

"Oh my gosh! I'm so, so, so sorry!" Squeaked a terrified Hannah as she bent over to help him pick up his books. "I was so preoccupied, because Lily threw a book at me and I anted to make sure-Hey, is that the complete works of Scott Cunningham? It's out every time I get here! I've wanted it for so long." Hannah eyed the book hungrily.

Snape raised his eyebrows.

"And…" His voice sounded as if he had swallowed a mixture of honey and oil. Hannah grinned at him and winked.

"Well, y'know. Hint, hint; nudge, nudge; wink, wink. Meaning let me borrow the damn book." She gave him an impish smile and raised her own eyebrows at him.

The corners of his mouth twitched as if he wanted to smile, but he quickly regained his composure of carefully detached interest.

"If I let you borrow the book…what's in it for me?" He looked at her sincerely interested in what he might get. Hannah looked back at him, confused. "I want 20 galleons." He supplied. Hannah looked at him as if he were crazy.

"You'll make me poor!" She said incredulously. "The Lerona riches will be forever lost! Can't I just give you advice on how to be attractive?" Snape looked as though he very much wanted to strangle her. "Well…I mean…can't you…you don't shower!" She had just realized that she had said something incredibly stupid. Snape's scowl deepened.

"I don't like you." He said pointedly. Then (as an afterthought) added, "Not at all. I never have."

Hannah, hot-tempered little fireball that she was, immediately flew into a passionate fury.

"You know, every day I come here at exactly the same time as you, but do you notice? Don't answer! Ya' want to what else? My friends think I'm crazy because I think you're better looking then those arrogant assholes the Marauders. Well you are! I'm obviously interested in y-! Oh crap, not again! Goodbye!" Hannah ran from the Library with Snape looking puzzled in her wake.

"Sirius what happened to Jen?" Andromeda and Sirius were currently occupying an empty classroom. (A/N aren't oxymorons awesome?)

"All I did was slip a potion into her goblet to make her a little…uhhh, drunk like." He said hesitantly.

"Why?"

"Well, hence the name Marauder."

"Well is she all right now?"

"She'll be ready for classes on Monday."

"Oh, all right, then I guess I'm only a little upset."

"Good." Then he leaned down to kiss her.

When James got back to the Common Room he said goodnight to Clover and went upstairs.

Remus was the only other person there. He was sitting on his bed staring off into space, probably deep in thought. "Hey" Said James.

"What…Oh, how did the date with Clover go?"

"Having dinner with a textbook would be more interesting then tonight!"

"You didn't even kiss her?"

"She said she had a cold sore. Can you say gross, I mean she could have lied and said something else."

"Honesty is the key to a good relationship. Well, at least that's what Dr. Good-spouse said" James gave Remus a look that said 'you're a pothead aren't you?'

"You're kidding, right?"

"No, but hey, it was something to fill the hours. I mean the book!" He said when James started smirking.

"What did I miss?"

"Nothing, except Sirius almost killed Jen."

"Poor Remus, did his crush get hurt?" Remus then started pelting James with pillows.

A/N: So what did you guys think? Did I mention this is sixth year? Okay so character profile…

James: Prankster extraordinaire. All the girls love him, it's quite scary really. Has a slight infatuation with Lily. He doesn't love her yet actually he still hates her. Sort of…

Remus: A voice of reason that sometimes joins in on the fun and doesn't always speak up. He's more mature then the others, but is also a prankster.

Sirius: How do I begin to explain Sirius? I think he explains himself.

Lily: Can you say genius? She and her friends are pretty popular so that's not really an issue. She and her friends are the main focus of most of the Marauder born pranks. Not that she doesn't get revenge…

Peter: I think when I actually bring him into the story he's going to be smart and funny and popular. When he's in the story.

Jen: Perfect. Her homework is in on time, not a single detention in her life, clean as Purrel hand sanitizer. Also she can be quite blonde.

Hannah: 60 Slytherin 40 Gryffindor. But I guess the Gryffindor in her is stronger. Not exactly polite she is totally headstrong. One of the more interesting characters.

Andromeda: She is the flirt. Sirius obsessed but they're not going out. Weird I know, but I try to mix things up a little. Not big on reading but she still gets an E in most of her subjects.

Clover: James' flavor of the week and nothing more.
