A/N: First of all a BIG thank-you to my readers: I LOVE YOU GUYS! You are the best! Before you start reading this chapter you should know that this chapter was not thought out, I'm just writing this off the top of my head…so here you go:
Chapter 7: Revenge
It was nearly midnight and James could not sleep. He lay awake on his four-poster bed, staring at the ceiling. His thoughts were on the one and only Lily Evans. James couldn't understand why she had started flirting with him when only less than a few months ago she had told him that she hated him.
He sighed and got up to go downstairs for a midnight snack. As he entered the kitchen he heard some giggling and moans. Suddenly James stepped into something soft.
"OW!" yelled a voice that came from the floor.
"Lumos," James muttered and the tip of his wand started glowing. Looking at the floor, he realized that he had stepped on Sirius' hand.
"Padfoot? What are you doing?" asked a confused James. Then he heard someone giggling again. He pointed his wand to the space near Sirius, revealing Jessica, whose lipstick was smudged all over her mouth.
"Thomas? What are you guys doing here?"
Sirius opened his mouth to say something but Jessica cut in.
"Surely you know what we're doing Potter? Or maybe you haven't ever made out with anyone?" She raised her eyebrow, mocking him. James responded with a rude hand gesture.
"Now, now. Be a good boy James, darling, and leave the grown-ups alone," Jessica said in a baby voice.
James left the room muttering "Bitch."
He returned to his room after getting a sandwich. Closing his door, he thought he heard voices come from Lily's room. He quietly entered the bathroom and put his ear close to the doorknob of Lily's door.
"…it's going so well. Did you see James turning red? That was funny: I don't think Mr. Arrogant has ever blushed that much in his entire life!" That was definitely Lily's voice, James thought.
"Remind me again: why are we doing this?" That sounded like Emily.
"To teach those Marauders that they can't have every single girl they want. We'll teach them a lesson they won't forget."
"Wait, so flirting with him is going to make him less arrogant?"
"No, I just want play with him for a while. You know play hard-to-get. It'll be pure torture for James."
"Well I still think it's a bad idea."
"Oh come on, it's just harmless fun."
"Well, I can't do anything to change your mind." Emily yawned. "I'm tired, I think I'll go now. See you tomorrow."
"Bye, Emily!"
When James realized their conversation was over, he stood up and walked back to his room. He smirked as he thought of Lily. Those poor girls. They don't know what they're getting themselves into. That was his last thought as he fell into deep sleep
