Chapter 3: The Ultimate Dare.
I don't mind you hangin' out
And talkin' in your sleep
It doesn't matter where you've been
As long as it was deep, yeah
You always knew to wear it well and
You look so fancy I can tell
I don't mind you hangin' out
And talkin' in your sleep
(Just what i needed-The Cars)
"What do you want?" Severus Snape rudely asked the next morning after Lily's brainwave over at the library.
"Why Snivels you are so cheerful in the morning! And a good thing its for Potions class too." Sam said taking a seat next to him. Luckily for her, Snape was a Slytherin and they had Potions with Sam's house, Ravenclaw. Lily, Kirkley and the marauders were all in Gryffindor house, so they got to talk to Sirius and his dumb club.
Sam sat down beside Snape and surveyed him with her elbows propped up on the table and her chin resting on her hands.
"If you want to cheat with my homework for this week then ask, take and get it over with." He said briskly.
Sam stared, "My you are very smart. You and her will be perfect!" Sam said triumphantly.
It was Snape's turn to stare, "What the Hell are you raving about you lunatic?" he snapped.
Sam ignored the insult with a wave of her hand, "I have something to tell you."
"I don't care."
Then she started, "Wait a sec. Do you mean to tell me that you have this weeks homework already finished?" she asked gaping.
"Yes!" Snape said smirking slightly.
"But…but its only Monday!" then she remembered the reason she was there, " Hey… tonight can you give me some of that."
"What the work?" he frowned.
"Yeah, you see my sister—"
"The stupid twit…"
"—My sister needs help, I need help but I don't want to study with her, so she is studying with Sybil."
"Freak girl who is in love with stars?" Snape sneered. He seemed almost tempted to meet.
"Yeah her. So will you help me?" Sam pouted, she knew that she was considered one of the cutest girls and her lying ability was perfect.
"Fine." Hook line and sinker. "When do you want to meet?" he asked.
"At eight, oh by the way, Sybil may love stars, but she loves you more!" and with that Sam flounced off to another seat by her other friends.
"Hello there." Lily said forcing a smile on her face. She was staring at Sirius, James, Remus and Peter.
"Hey there you pretty thing you!" James said sitting up straighter. Remus rolled his eyes.
"
Can I speak to the prefect and only mature person here, please?" Lily said pointing to Lupin.
"Sure." He said then stood and followed her away from the others.
" I need your help, I need you to bring the others—"
"You mean James and Sirius and Peter?" Remus cut in.
"Duh! I need you to bring them to empty classroom 1005 at eight O'clock tonight" she said quickly.
"Why?" Remus asked her. She pondered whether she should tell about her plan.
She decided against telling him, "Just come, oh and you might want to bring a leash."
He jumped slightly, "Why a leash?" he asked. He seemed confused.
"Because," she said grimly, "They wont like who else we are bringing tonight." And with that she departed to meet the other girls.
"Why the hell are they here?" Sirius Black demanded the moment him and the other marauders entered the empty classroom later that night. Standing there were the girls, Snape and Sybil.
"Because we are going to settle things for good." Lily said marching over and shutting the door.
"Yeah so shut up." Sarah said nastily.
"How 'bout we all sit down." Sam said and everyone pulled up a chair around Lily.
"Okay here it goes." Lily started to say then sitting down she took a deep breath, "We are going to make a deal and do a dare." She stated.
"Excuse me, we? I don't think so." Snape said and went to stand up.
"They said Sit so SIT." James snapped at Snape. Then after Snape sat back down Kirkley spoke,
"The girls are going to do a dare with the guys here." She said waving a hand to the marauders.
"Well what do we have to do with it, me and Snape." Sybil asked sounding confused slightly.
"You two are the dare." Sarah said sniffing as though she thought that the thought was rather disgusting.
"WHAT?" everyone in the room except the girls shouted, Snape actually jumped right out of his chair causing it to fall, "NO WAY!" he shouted.
"SHUUSSSHHH" Lily put her finger on her lips, "You don't want to be caught, do you?"
Snape shut his mouth and picked his chair up, then sat back down.
"What's the dare?" Sirius asked.
"The girls have to dress Sybil up to go on a date with Snape here." Sam said grinning.
"Really and what do the guys have to do?" Lupin asked
All the girls at this grinned, "You have to ready up Severus here." Lily said swiftly.
Sirius and James's jaws dropped, "Not possible." James said.
"Well then if you're going to forfeit then we can all be on our way—"
"Hold on a sec. What do me and Snape get out of this?" Sybil asked frowning now.
"Besides being together and all dolled up? Well you get peace and quiet from us." Sarah said
"Wait. You mean we have to stop rowing with Snivels and you have to stop it with Sybil?"
"Yes and you guys get to be left alone by us." Sam said. "But only if you win!" Kirkley said.
"Yeah. And it works vice versa too. If we win then you have to leave us alone." Sarah said.
"Is that all?" James asked obviously not caring about the deal or dare.
Lily sighed and struggled to speak, "If…if you win then…then I will…I will go on…on…on a date with you James." She managed. James grinned, "All right I'm in!"
"And no matter who wins we have to leave Snape and Sybil alone okay?" Kirkley asked the crowd.
Everyone murmured their consent (Particularly Snape and Sybil) then Lupin spoke, "Well its not fare that we get something else out of this and you girls don't, how about if win you get to go on a date with one of us?" He said fairly.
"Yeah! I'm cool with that." Sirius said grinning.
"Alright then." He said as the girls nodded their approval, "Whom do you want to go out with?"
"Well only one of us should and it should be…" Sarah started to say but then Lily cut her off, "It should be Sam I think. Because then Sirius, if he's not picked can leave stalking her."
"Okay then I will go out on my date if we win with…" she paused then smiled at…
"Remus Lupin!" she said smiling directly at him. Remus blinked and Sirius's jaw dropped again.
"Sucks to be Sirius Black." Snape said then stood up, "So when do we start and finish this crap?" he sneered.
"So your in?" Lily seemed to light up at this,
"Sure why not, beats doing that History of Magic Project for Prof. Binns." Snape said waiting now at the door.
"Well we can have the date in a weeks time on the same day as now, and meet here in room 1005!" Lily said. Then they all stood up to leave for their own common rooms.
"Wait!" Peter called in a panicky voice,
"What?" Sarah said in an irritated voice. Everyone turned to stare at him.
"Wait, what's this about some project For Binns?"
Snape rolled his eyes and left, the rest followed him laughing at Peter's distress.
"Till then!" James said happily to the girls who feigning gagging sound.
