Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. The wonderful JK Rowling does! I wish I did, then I'd be rich! Just kidding! Please don't sue me for writing a fan fic that I really hope you enjoy!
(A/N: Ok…since I got all my files back ((see AN at end)) I found my extremely edited chapters. I forgot I had something with Marissa getting a boyfriend that I added in, so if you would pretty please go back to chapter nine and read the end, that way you'll understand this chapter. You could read 10-11 too so that you understand Sirius better too. Thank you!)

"So, your telling me that Miss Evans and Miss Peele helped you with it?" McGonagall asked.
Lily (who looked like James) nodded.
"This whole mix up is getting confusing. We'll have to put off classes until this gets straightened out. Now, who's who again?" said McGonagall.
James (who looked like Lily) stepped forward. "I'm James, and Lily and I traded places."
Marissa (who looked like Sirius) said, "I'm Marissa, and Sirius and I switched places. Then Remus and Peter stayed the same."
McGonagall cocked an eyebrow. "Why did they stay the same?"
James (who looked like Lily) shrugged. "We don't know. Thought it would be different."
McGonagall rubbed her forehead. "You all have a month's worth of detentions, all with separate Professors. They will begin after everyone turns back into himself or herself. 20 points each will be taken from your house. I am not going to take away more because that was extraordinary magic and I am very impressed with it." All of them grinned. "But that still doesn't mean that it was okay. You broke a lot of school rules. Mr. Potter, I have come to expect this kind of behavior from you. But Ms. Evans, you haven't done anything since you became a prefect. You may go to your Common Room now."
All of them filed out of the room. Once they got out, Sirius (who looked like Marissa) said, "Only a month? What is she playing at? We deserve at least two months!"
James (or Lily) nodded. "That was not worth it if it's only a month. We'll never break the detention record!"
Lily (or James) put her arms around James' (or Lily's) waist. "You guys are strange. Plus, you've already broken the detention record," Lily (James?) said nonchalantly.
James (or Lily) stopped. "What!"
Marissa (who looked like Sirius) nodded. "Yeah, Lily and I wanted to find out what the last record was. A girl named Evelyn Rodriguez from Hufflepuff set it. She had 407 throughout her school life. You broke it in 4th year. You're up to," she counted on her fingers, "625 or something like that."
Remus chuckled. "Well at least we broke it. Maybe we should keep going though, we want to make sure no one steals our title."
"SIRIUS!" yelled Marissa, which was strange because she looked like him. "DO NOT EVER IN A MILLION YEARS TOUCH THERE!"
Sirius (looking like Marissa) pulled his hand away from his chest quickly. The rest of them burst out laughing.

"This is so gross!" said Claudia two days later. "I'm Snape! I hate the Marauders! I hate you too Lily!" Claudia (or Snape) spat as Lily (or James) started laughing.
"You'll love me again when this is over. Now, we got to keep practicing. I'm shocked you can't get this spell right. Now keep trying" Lily (James) said.
Claudia glared, looking very Snape-ish. "I can't concentrate when I have greasy hair! I've washed it a million times and it stays greasy. That kid is sick!"
Lily (James) laughed some more. "Well at least you don't have James' hair. It's very cute on him, but it's a nightmare to take care of," said Lily, trying to lay her (really James') hair flat.
Claudia (looking like Snape) started giggling, "Wait, I'm Snape and your James. This is so weird..."
Lily (or James) grinned, "Well, if Marissa was here it would look even worse. Think of Sirius with Snape."

"Come on James, we have to go patrol the halls," Lily said, getting up from her chair. It had been a month since the mixing up incident and the Marauders, plus Lily and Marissa were still serving detention. It was nearing the end of May and Finals were coming up.
James sighed, looking at his stack of homework. "We better make it fast."
They walked out of the Gryffindor Common Room and begin walking down various hallways, hand in hand. They checked on all the secluded snogging spots first, finding Hayden and Marissa in one, giving them each a detention, which Marissa argued about, and Hayden looked very put out. Next they checked dark corridors and bathrooms.
They were heading towards the third floor corridor when they saw something very shocking. There was Brielle, snogging a very anxious seventh year Ravenclaw by the name of Gavin Moore.
James put a hand over Lily's mouth, as she had opened her mouth ready to go off, and pulled her inside the nearest empty classroom. When he let go, Lily exploded.
"How dare she! She is still going out with Remus! I though they were serious too! And here she is, snogging Gavin Moore! Do you have any idea how bad his reputation is? Poor Remus, he really liked her. I warned him all about her and come to find out that slut was going behind his back-" Lily was interrupted.
"Lily listen, we need to talk to Remus. He needs to know. Please don't yell anymore," James said. Lily nodded, her face still red "Alright, come on we need to see Remus."
¤.¸¸.·´¨»«´¨·. ¸¸.¤
"Remus we need to talk," James said, Lily arriving in the boys' dormitories right behind him.
Remus shook his head, straightening his robes in the full-length mirror and checked his breath. "Not now. I'm supposed to meet Brielle in a couple minutes." He had a huge smile on his face. "I need to borrow your Invisibility Cloak again."
Lily got down on her knees in front of Remus. "Your not proposing to me, are you Lily?" Remus asked, looking at her questionably, but with laughter in his eyes.
Lily gave him a small smile. "No, but you have to hear us out. Um, I don't know how to say this," Lily said trailing off.
James stepped in. "We were just patrolling the corridors and we saw something awful. Brielle was snogging Gavin Moore. I'm really sorry Remus."
Remus' smile fell from his face. "You're joking."
Lily shook her head. "No, but I wish we were. You need to talk to her about it."
James summoned his Invisibility Cloak and gave it to Remus "I can't. I can't face her," Remus whispered.
James clapped a hand on his shoulder. "You have to. It's better to do it in private than when she comes in here looking for you. Remember, you can always talk to us mate."
Remus nodded and took the cloak. He slouched out of the room. Lily sighed. "I need to talk to Marissa about it."
"She's not here, probably snuck into the Ravenclaw common room with Hayden." James said. Lily walked over and gave James a hug "What's this for?"
"For always being there for me," Lily said, her voice muffled against his robes, "And for not going behind my back and snogging someone, like Gina Burrows."
James smiled. "Nah, she talks too much. But I guess I'll stop considering it." He received a light slap on the arm from Lily.
They stood there for a while until Lily detached from his arms. "I'll go talk to Claudia."
James nodded. "I need to talk to Sirius and Peter."
James walked over to where Sirius and Peter were comparing History of Magic notes. "This can't be right, I have goblin rebellions the same year as Hogwarts started" Sirius said, rubbing his eyes.
James pulled up a chair. "I need to tell you something about Remus" James said. Sirius and Peter stopped scratching out sentences and looked up at him. James launched into what happened in the corridor.
"That's awful" Sirius said when James finished. "I dunno if Remus is strong enough to handle this."
Peter shook his head sadly. "I think he loved her, you know, by the way he wouldn't shut up about how wonderful she is.
Sirius grinned. "Remind you of someone James?"
James ignored him. "We just need to be there for him whenever he comes back." James summoned his homework and started helping Sirius with his History of Magic notes, which didn't do much good as James fell asleep more often in that class than Sirius did.
Meanwhile, Lily just told Claudia the whole story. "I didn't like Brielle very much, but I still considered her a friend. Now that she's cheated on Remus, I don't know if I can even look at her right now" Lily finished.
Claudia pulled her into a hug. "If you feel betrayed, think of how Remus must feel right now."
Lily nodded. "I want to help Remus, but he doesn't let anyone get close to him. Except the Marauders, but that took four years to establish."
"Well you can't make him tell you. Just go up to him and say, 'If you ever need to talk, I'm always here for you' and if he wants to talk, he will talk. If he doesn't, there's nothing you can do about it" Claudia said.
Lily pulled away from her and gave her a thankful smile. "Thanks Claudia."
"Anytime. I'm glad we became friends," Claudia said.
"Me too."

"Hey sexy," greeted Brielle when she saw Remus. She leaned into kiss him but he pulled back.
"Why were you with Gavin Moore earlier?" Remus said, his voice flat.
Brielle rolled her eyes. "Because he looked good and I wanted to snog him." She leaned into kiss him again but Remus pulled back.
"What the hell is your problem? When you have a boyfriend, you stay committed to him. You don't go snogging other guys right before you meet your boyfriend!" Remus yelled.
"Oh come off it, like you don't kiss other girls," Brielle snapped.
Remus face was very red and his hands were clenched. "No I don't! I only kissed you! How many guys have you kissed anyways?"
"I don't know! Like three or something," Brielle said, twirling a strand of her hair.
"We're over! I don't want to even look at you right now!" Remus yelled. He stormed back up to Gryffindor Tower, leaving a stunned Brielle behind.

"Mate, you've got to give her up! It's been a week! Finals start today!" Sirius said.
Remus looked at his friend with bloodshot eyes. "I'm trying. I thought I really loved her. And it turns out she wasn't even taking me seriously." Remus put his head down on the table.
Lily sighed, "Come on Remus, here eat some toast. It'll make you feel better." Lily heard a muffled 'no'.
The bell rang, signaling that it was time to go to class. "Alright, let's get this torture session the school calls 'finals' over with," James said, standing up.
¤.¸¸.·´¨»«´¨·. ¸¸.¤
"I failed! I know I failed!" moaned James as he sat down in an armchair after dinner.
"Come on sweetie, it couldn't have been that bad," Lily said, sitting on the armrest and running her fingers through his hair.
"But it was horrible. I know I'll get held back a year!" James muttered.
Sirius walked in, and catching the last bit of the conversation, said. "Here, here. I failed everything."
Remus then walked in, whistling. He was actually smiling. "I did brilliant! I'm sure I passed everything!"
Lily smiled "Me too! I think I did great. Where's Marissa?"
Remus flung into an armchair and threw his bag on the floor. "I think she's still in her Potions final. Either that or she and Hayden are having an end of finals celebration," Sirius' eyes darkened slightly, "Where's Peter?"
"Yeah, I've been wondering where he is. I haven't seen him since the Defense Against Dark Arts final," James said.
James looked over at Sirius, who was muttering under his breath. He looked up and slapped himself on the head. "NOW I know the answer! It was 1873! Arrrgh!" Sirius stormed up to the dormitories. A minute later, everyone heard a door slam.
Lily rolled her eyes "Someone is a drama queen."

Author Notes: Yeah, sorry for being so disorganized. But yes, I got all my files off my hard drive! One of my friends, who is a computer genius, fixed it! So I have everything back, thank you so so so so so so much for anyone who tried to help be get my chapters back! You're support meant a lot to me! And if you're reading the later chapters, I re-posted chapter 45 because I got the original one I wrote back and it is so much better than the one I threw together before.
One non-registered review response:
Demi: I'm gunna review your later chapters one. It's not pathetic at all! Every time I re-read my favorite stories I cry! Like for instance, OotP when Sirius dies I cry harder every time. Now who's the pathetic one? Haha. I know, I love L/J fics because we know so little about them and it's a joy to see everyone's creative outlooks of them two. Oh my gosh I LOVE that episode of Friends! Then again I like all of them and pretty much have them all memorized. I like the one from an earlier season (it's where Ross and Rachel are still dating and he's extremely jealous) where Chandler has too many jello shots and gets drunk and sleeps with one of Joey's sisters. That's one of my favorites (key word, one of my favorites). Haha! The Holiday Turtle! Yep…that part so fits Remus.
Sorry it took me forever to update this one, especially when I have all the chapters written lol. With the later chapters one it might be a while because I haven't started writing it yet (sorry!) and it's going to be a really hard one to write. I'm so busy…I'll try my best to get it out! Thanks for sticking with me!
