Chapter 7- Girl Talk, Boy Talk and Makeovers
Lily let Suffie cry on her shoulder for a little and then they went downstairs. They were at the top of the staircase when Lily got an idea. She started smirking.
"Want to pull a prank on the guys, well not really a prank more like torture," Lily said and giggled.
"Okay! What do you have in mind?" Suffie asked.
"I'll fill you in later, we're going to need Sirius's help though," Lily said.
"Why would he help us?" She asked.
"Revenge of course," Lily explained and smiled "Before you came James and Remus played a joke on him."
"Oh, okay," Suffie said. They walked down the rest of the stairs. James and Remus were no where in sight. They saw Sirius still gobbling down food.
"I swear that boy has a bottomless pit for a stomach," Suffie said.
"Hey Sirius, you want to get some revenge?" Lily asked. Sirius turned around and raised an eyebrow.
"Depends," He said with a mouth full of food.
"Well I was thinking you might want to get James and Remus back for when you were sleeping and they put you on that raft in the pool, that and we want to have some fun today," Lily explained.
"Okay, I'm interested," Sirius said, "What's your idea?"
"Well I was thinking..."
"Okay now, don't cause to much trouble, please?" Lily begged "Be back before at least 7 o'clock also, okay?" James, Sirius, and Remus were going to Floo to Diagon Alley to hang out for the day. They still weren't aware to what was happening with Suffie, but Lily had asked them to leave so that they could spend some time together, just girls. They each took a handful of floo powder. James stepped into the fireplace that was in Lily's living room.
"Lily, dear, does this face look like someone who'd cause any trouble?" He posed and smirked, then shouted "Diagon Alley" and threw down his floo. When James had disappeared Remus stepped into the fireplace.
"I agree, honestly Lils, you would think you would trust us more than that!" He said and laughed. "Diagon Alley", he yelled and threw down his floo powder. He disappeared also and then it was Sirius's turn. Sirius stepped into the fire place.
"See you guys later, I'll be sure to keep them there for the whole day, " Sirius said. "Diagon Alley", he yelled and threw down his floo powder and he then disappeared.
"What would you like to do first?" Lily asked Suffie.
"I vote ice cream and chick flicks," She said. Lily smiled.
"Good idea," They both took a tub of ice cream out of the refrigerator each and went and sat on the couch and started to watch some romantic movies.
James, Sirius, and Remus had stopped at Gringotts and got some money for themselves out of their vaults. They were leaning on the wall outside a shop watching everyone go by.
"So what do you guys want to do?" James asked.
"I think we should go check out Quality Quidditch Supplies and then maybe get some ice cream. We have plenty of time though it's only about 2 o' clock," Sirius said. They began to make there way down to the quidditch shop. They spent a long time in there, mostly ogling over the newest prototype broom. They bought the newest 'Quidditch News' magazine and then left. They went to the ice cream parlor, Sirius got chocolate, James got pistachio, and Remus got strawberry. They all sat at a table with a bright colored umbrella outside the shop and ate their ice cream while looking through the magazine together.
"You know I think our little Remus needs some girl help," Sirius said to James.
"Sirius, what on earth are you talking about?" Remus asked.
"Remy, Remy, Remy," Sirius said shaking his head " Sure you and Suffie kissed, but have you asked her out yet? You like her though, right?"
"Well yea I like her, but why would she want to be my girlfriend?" Remus said.
"Your acting all negative, why wouldn't she want to be your girlfriend? You've had girlfriends before, but you usually don't act this way, how come?" James asked.
"I don't know, I guess I really like her," Remus said and shrugged "Lets talk about something else, like whether or not there's something going on between you and Lily, perhaps?"
"Sorry, but I have no clue what your talking about. There is absolutely nothing going on between us," James said.
"Oh come on James, admit it," Sirius said.
"Maybe I'm beginning to like Lily, ok? But I like the Lily we know now, not the person she acts like at school. I mean at school she's like a loner who is practically perfect and has no sense of hygiene. She acts like a prat and spoils all our fun at school!" James said.
"Maybe she'll change, I mean after all that's happened and all..." Remus said.
"Well we'll just have to see how this all sorts out. Let's go do something, okay?" James said.
"Let's go to the Apothecary we need to stock up on our potions for our pranks and no one is around to see us so they won't know any of our plans for this year," Sirius said smirking. They all agreed and left to the Apothecary store.
Lily and Suffie were outside tanning because it was such a nice day out. Lily was putting more sun tan lotion on.
"So Suff, what's up between you and Remus?" She asked.
"I don't know, he kissed me but that pretty much it. You know we're not boyfriend, girlfriend or anything yet, that would be nice if we were though. He's such a cutie," Suffie said and giggled, "What's up between you and James, huh?"
"Your kidding me, right? There's nothing between me and James. He hates me and he probably will go back to pulling pranks on and teasing me as soon as we get back to school. He probably thinks I'm the ugliest girl in school, because I am," Lily said.
"Lily, you are far from ugly. It's just at school you don't exactly show it.You need to get some self confidence," Suffie said.
"I just don't see the point though. I mean why should I concentrate on how I look? It's school, everyone should be concentrating on their school work and studying," Lily explained.
"Well, yea I guess, but still can't you do both?" Suffie asked. Lily couldn't think of anything to say. She sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Fine, I might make a slight effort this year at school but not right away got that," Lily said. "Remember I said might."
"Good for you Lils," Suffie said.
A few hours later
It was around 7 o' clock. Lily and Suffie stood on either side of the fireplace they heard three thuds one after each other.
"Ow, get off of me Sirius." James said.
"You mind getting off me first James?" Remus said. The lights were turned off. James looked around.
"Suffie, Lily, you here?" Remus asked. In a matter of seconds the lights were all back on and James and Remus were both tied up to chairs.
"What do you guys think you are doing!" James yelled, very confused.
"Well, Sirius wanted revenge, and were bored and wanted to do some makeovers," Suffie said and giggled.
"What does tying us up have to do with you two giving each other makeovers?" Remus asked.
"Suffie never said we were the ones getting the makeovers now did she?" Lily asked. James and Remus looked at each other.
"Come on! You guys are kidding, right?" James said, "Sirius, buddy, untie us."
"What? And miss seeing you two with makeup on? You have got to be joking," Sirius said smirking. Lily and Suffie got there makeup out. Lily was trying to put eyeliner on James but he was shaking his head back and forth yelling "no no no no no no".
"James, hold still before you get your eye poked out!" Lily said and laughed.
"This is cruel and unusual punishment. You can't do this!" He yelled back. Lily laughed.
"James, calm down its just makeup. Besides don't you want to be pretty?" She said. James thought a moment and then frowned.
"What, I'm not already pretty?" He said and then started to make fake crying noises.
"Don't worry James, you are very pretty already" Suffie said and giggled.
"Thank you Suffie...now untie me!" James said. Lily rolled her eyes and started to put the eye liner on him.
"Merlin! Why do girls want to shove pencils towards there eyes, its creepy!" James yelled as she put it on him. Suffie was putting pink eye shadow on Remus.
"This is so embarrassing, I don't like you anymore you know that?" Remus said. Suffie laughed.
"That's a shame, I still like you," She said.
"Really? Then why are you putting makeup on me!" Remus yelled, even though he was thrilled to hear her say she liked him. 'I hope she doesn't mean as friends only though' Remus thought. He jumped back into reality when Suffie sat on his lap, still putting make up on him.
"I was tired of standing," Suffie explained "Oh, Lily can we paint their nails!" Suffie asked laughing. Lily nodded and passed her a nail polish.
"That's a new wizard polish, it actually changes color to match your out fit!" Lily said to Suffie. Suffie looked at the bottle, it looked like clear nail polish.
"Wow, that's so cool," Suffie said marveled at the nail polish. She stood up and went behind Remus because that's were his hands were tied. She finished painted all the nails on one hand and the all turned red to match the red t-shirt he was wearing. "Awesome!" Suffie exclaimed and started doing the other. When they finally finished James and Remus where totally covered in makeup.
"This is just sick, you three are sick you know that!" James yelled. They all laughed.
"There's one last thing we forgot to do though," Sirius said. Lily and Suffie looked at Sirius confused.
"What did we forget to do?" Lily asked.
"I don't think I want to know," Remus mumbled. Sirius smirked and then took out his camera.
"NO!" James and Remus both yelled at the same time. Lily went and stood behind James, she had her arms on his head and was resting her head on her hands. Suffie wrapped her arms around Remus's neck still sitting on his lap, and smiled as Sirius took the picture.
"I have gotten so many great pictures, I think I'll make a scrape book for every one at school to see," Sirus joked, the others glared at him. " I have you two with make up on, James and Lily sleeping together, Remus and Suffie kissing in a closet..."
"What? Wait I don't remember you taking a picture of us when that happened!" Suffie said, she started to blush.
"No one was paying attention," Sirius said and shrugged his shoulders.
"Well there is also a picture of you on the raft sleeping on that camera, we took it before Lily even woke up," James said.
"Sorry but its still not as embarrassing as everyone else's pictures," Sirius said folding his arms over his chest.
"Well we'll have to fix that later won't we?" Remus said.
"You can try to but I doubt anything you try will work...besides its my camera!" Sirius said laughing.
"Yea, yea sure. Now will you guys untie us?" James asked. They untied James and Remus and both boys started rubbing their faces trying to wipe the makeup off.
"Arg, get it off!" James and Remus both complained. Lily passed them something.
"What is it?" James asked.
"Wash your face with it, it's makeup remover" Lily explained. Both boys ran off to the bathroom leaving Sirius, Lily, and Suffie laughing in the living room. It was now around 9 o' clock. James and Remus walked back out into the living room.
"We never had dinner, I'm starving!" James complained. Everyone agreed that they should make some sort of dinner.
"How about...soup. I don't feel like cooking and if we have soup all we have to do is heat up the already made, canned stuff," Lily said, everyone agreed and Lily opened a few cans of soup and heated it on the stove. By the time it was done cooking and they had all finished eating it was close to about 10 o' clock.
"I'm not tired, lets do something" Suffie said.
"We can go swimming!" James suggested.
"At 10 o 'clock at night!" Lily exclaimed.
"Sure, why not?" Remus said. They all finally agreed and went to put on their bathing suits.
"Come on Lils wear you bathing suit that matches mine!" Suffie said smiling.
"But that ones so much more revealing..." Lily said hesitantly.
"You're joking right! No its not!You need to break out of your little shell," Suffie laughed. In the end they ended up wearing matching green and yellow bikinis. They were finished first they went and jumped into the pool.
"It feels strange, swimming so late that is," Suffie said. All of a sudden all three boys jumped in the pool, the girls screamed and then started laughing.
"Hmm...I say we play Marco Polo," Sirius suggested.
"Okay, good idea you can be Marco first," Lily said. It was very hard to play considering they didn't have any lights outside and were playing in the darkness. After a while it was James turn.
"Marco," James yelled out.
"Polo," They all answered. James started towards Lily. Lily ducked under water, figuring he went away she came back up for air. When she did she saw James only about a quarter of an inch away from her face. She screamed out of surprise and he tagged her. He opened his eyes to see how close they were. Lily swam back a bit and then continued playing the game. They soon got tired of playing and were sitting up looking at the sky, laid out on their towels. It was quiet until they heard some noises coming from the woods.
"What was that?" Suffie said scared.
"Probably nothing," Sirius said calmly. Soon the noises turned into what sounded almost like faint screeches.
"Yea, that sounds like nothing, " Lily said nervously.
"Can we go in this is getting kind of scary," Suffie said as she unconsciously grabbed Remus's arm.
"Fine, I agree with Sirius though, it's probably nothing just night animals," James said. The night ended that way, because when then got inside they changed into their pajamas and fell asleep talking.
That's all for this chapter. I hope you all like it, I did hehehe but maybe I just want to see Remus and James tied up with makeup all over them. I have a lot of ideas but none of them really happen until they get to Hogwarts and all. I just need more ideas to fill in the time between then. If you have any please tell me. Also, do any of these ideas sound good...like maybe they could get robbed or something, or umm...I was thinking of having Lily drown and like James save her or something but I tried to write a chapter like that and it just didn't come out right. I don't know I have to think, I'm really running out of ideas lol stupid writers block. Well anyway, please review!
(Also to the person who's signed name is Jen and wanted to know if I could put her in my story I do need another girl character, if you still want to be in the story could you review and give me your e-mail address, I had some questions on your character. If you don't want to anymore, tell me and I'll let someone else be in the story.)
