Chapter 2 - Revenge is sweet

Lily and Carly were still sitting together talking in whispers when the Marauders walked into the Great Hall. James spotted Lily's bright lime green hair straight away and cracks up laughing.

"Mate what's so funny?" Peter asked. James, unable to respond, merely points at Lily. Sirius, Remus and Peter look where he's pointing and begin laughing also.

"Why doesn't she change it back?" Remus wondered.

"Coz she can't. The spell is irreversible. It'll be like that for three days," James willingly replied, still chuckling. They walk over to where Carly and Lily are sitting.

"That hair of yours is looking absolutely gorgeous this morning Lil," said Sirius in a mock serious tone of voice. Lily just glared at Sirius then James. To Carly she said,

"We're doing it tonight." And got up and began to walk away.

Sirius was confused. "Doing what tonight?"

"Nothing that concerns you." Lily stopped walking and turned around. "Oh yeah, and don't call me Lil."

That being said Lily left the Great Hall and began walking towards her first class, which also happened to be her favorite, Charms.

~*~*~*~

"What's happening tonight?" Sirius was still confused.

"Like Lily said nothing that concerns you." Carly said this with an evil glint in her eye which James noticed and became suspicious. He narrowed his eyes and thought 'Hmm. I don't like the sound of this.'

~*~*~

Lily couldn't pay attention in any class that morning. James noticed this since Lily always paid attention in every class, even History of Magic, which was without a doubt the most boring subject. 'That girl's planning something,' he thought, 'and I'm betting it has something to do with us Marauders.'

At lunch Lily and Carly were planning their prank when Carly saw the Marauders heading their way. "Li shut up they're coming over."

The Marauders walked up and sat down next to them, Remus and Sirius either side of Lily, James and Peter either side of Carly. "Hullo ladies, fine classes we just had eh?" Of course it was Sirius who said this. (A/N: who else would?)

Lily quickly glanced at Carly and grinned evilly then said to Sirius in an extremely innocent tone "Oh they were marvelous, especially double potions with the Slytherins."

"Lil you haven't paid attention to class all morning," James pointed out. Lily then moved her gaze to him. 'This can't be good,' James thought.

'This'll be good,' Lily thought at the exact same moment. "And how would you know if I was paying attention James?" she said out loud, "You didn't happen to stare and laugh at my bright green head all morning did you?" she continued, emphasizing the words "bright green".

"Uh."

"Well for that you get." Lily looked down at her plate which had roast lamb on it covered in gravy. "THIS!" Lily picked up her plate and threw the food at James. The lamb landed on his face and the mashed potato which had also been on Lily's plate was all down his shirt.

"Hey!"

"Oh yeah it was also for calling me Lil. Didn't I say this morning not to do that?" Lily looked at James then said, "Ugh. I'm not hungry anymore. I'll meet you at Divination Carly." Lily left haven gotten in the last word again.

~*~*~

The rest of the day passed quickly. Lily continued to daydream in class and James continued to watch her trying to figure out what she was planning. He didn't realize that he had the complete love struck look on his face. Sirius and Remus however noticed and commenced teasing.

"Aww our young Jamsie's got a crush on a certain green-haired prefect that's named after a flower," Sirius said in a sing song voice.

"What?! No I don't!" James protested.

Remus chuckled, "Then why have you been staring at her all day?"

"I haven't been staring," James denied, "and I don't have a crush," he added.

Remus merely raised an eyebrow and said, "If you say so James."

Dinner was also uneventful as James had decided that he didn't want more food thrown on him so he and the other Marauders sat at the opposite end of the Gryffindor table from Lily and Carly surroundered by their usual horde of ditzy girls. Lily and Carly were sitting by themselves as usual but they preferred it that way. They spent dinner finalizing their plans for that night.

~*~*~Midnight~*~*~

Lily and Carly crept out of the 5th year Gryffindor girls' dorm room careful not to wake their dorm mates. They made their way to the boys' dorm room and snuck in on their tip-toes. Carly made her way to Sirius' bed and Lily went to James'. Lily had decided that Sirius also deserved punishment for calling her Lil. His punishment just wouldn't be as severe as James'.

Lily began to look through James' trunk while Carly poured peroxide through Sirius' hair. (A/N: btw I dunno how peroxide actually works but this is my story so go with it) "You found his boxers yet?" Carly whispered. Lily continued to root through James' trunk.

"Found 'em," she whispered back and pulled out a pair of red and gold boxers. Something else caught Lily's eye. "Hey look at this. James has an invisibility cloak." Carly raised her eyebrows.

"Wonder where he got that?"

"Who knows? Anyway let's finish this. You got the peroxide?" Carly passed Lily the bottle. It was still ¾ full. Lily looked at it thoughtfully then grinned and poured it all into James' hair. Meanwhile Carly had used a charm to turn Sirius' teeth fluoro orange.

"Is James' name written on the inside of his boxers?" Carly asked still whispering so as not to wake the boys.

"Yep. You done?" Carly nodded.

"Good. Let's go down to the Common Room and finish so we can get some sleep."

~*~*~Next Morning~*~*~

James woke up early, which was unusual for him. Usually Sirius and Remus had to wake him up. He got up and went to have a shower.

He hopped out of the shower and wiped off the fogged up mirror.

"AAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

James' hair had gone from one extreme to the other. His originally unruly jet-black hair was now white blonde. Sirius and Remus ran into the bathroom. James' eyes got even wider which he hadn't thought possible. Sirius' hair was now a golden blonde. Simultaneously they pointed at each others' hair, then their own, then the others' again. The people down in the Common Room then heard an ear-splitting scream from two boys.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!"

~*~*~Meanwhile in the Common Room~*~*~

Lily and Carly looked at each other and grinned. They knew why there was screaming coming from the 5th year Gryffindor boys' dorm. The other people in the Common room looked confused for a moment then went back to laughing at what was suspended in midair above their heads.

In the air was a pair of green boxers covered in silver writing. On the back was written "I love Slytherins" and "Slytherins Rule". On the front in big bold silver capitals was written "I LOVE SNAPE!"

At that moment the Marauders came downstairs. Everyone turned and stared. James and Sirius glared at them then noticed the boxers in the air and started laughing. "Hey whose boxers?" James managed to get out. Everyone shrugged except two people, one of which yelled out "Accio boxers." Everyone turned to see Lily holding the boxers.

"Hmm. Let's see whose these are," was all she said. She looked inside and put on a fake shock face.

"C'mon Lily whose are they?" someone from the crowd yelled. Lily grinned and held up the boxers. She found James' eye before stating slowly, "James. Potter."

James was red. Everyone was shocked. Someone had pulled a prank on the famous James Potter. "Oh and look there's a note," Lily continued, "It says 'Courtesy of me'. Do you know what that means James?" this said in a confused tone. Lily grinned at him, threw him the boxers and walked out of the portrait hole, saying on the way, "Love the hair guys; you should give me the name of your hairdresser some time."
