Disclaimer: I don't own HP, but I do own Sirius Black 'cause I went back in time a kidnapped his younger self! I don't really own him though…. I own him… according to my mind! (Inside joke) Don't sue me!
Chapter 2: Deal!
The Great Hall was silent. Would James agree to this? Is Lily's friendship that important for him to be nice to his worst enemy? James thought for a minute,
"What happens if I don't do this?"
"Then I win and you must never ask me out again and we will never be friends unless I consider it myself"
"Deal," The two shook hands.
"I suggest you practice your manners, Potter, you'll be needing them when Severus is around." Lily headed to her spot at the table her friends were saving her.
"I thought we were to be civil Lily,"
"It's not breakfast yet, you can still be yourself until then." Lily sat down and started talking animatedly with her friends.
"Prongs! What has gotten into your head!" Cried Sirius, shoving a plate full of food into James face, " I thought you wanted to date her not be her friend! Now you have to be nice to Snivelus!"
"Her friendship is better than nothing, Padfoot, besides, once she get's to know me better as a friend maybe she'll consider going out with me."
"Ah, now I like what you're thinking!" said Sirius stuffing some baked potato in his mouth.
"Prongs, I think you made a very smart choice," said Moony matter-of-factly, "This will definitely change Lily's view of who she thinks you are. And I gladly won't help you at all!"
"What?" asked Sirius and James in confusion.
"By not helping you will help you," Remus explained, " Lily said if we helped you you'd lose, so I'm going to help you by not helping you."
"Can you say that again? I kind of got lost when you said 'not helping you' " Remus ignored Sirius's request and continued eating while reading his Charms book for the third time.
"But Prongs! No pranking! But what about plan 6,734? "
"Say what?"
"Oh, I gave our plan a number name this time. Remember that plan when we are going to give the Slytherins elephant ears and let loose some Cornish pixies (I got this idea while watching the Chamber of Secrets recently!) in their slimy common room? And the plan where we turn the Great hall into an ice-skating rink? What about the plan of holding the biggest exploding snap game of the century? Or the plan where we turn the great hall into a golf course? Don't forget the plan where we are going to turn the Quiddich Pitch into an aquarium during the Slytherin vs. Hufflepuff match? Or –"
"Sirius, enough, it's only one day, then we can do all those plans."
"Sirius, I thought I told you that turning the Quiddich Pitch into an aquarium was a bad idea! Some of those people can't swim!"
"Remus, I told you we'd put a bubble head charm on all the kids in the stands! The players can fly if they wanna get out!"
"What ever Padfoot, now if you wanna do the plan where we strengthen the gravity in the Slytherin Common room, we can do that tonight."
"Ok Prongs,"
"Come on Moony, we need you to say the incantation right!" said Sirius
"I'm coming, " So within about a half hour, the Slytherins were barely moving in the common room because they were so heavy due to the increase in gravity. And so the Marauders went to sleep happy.
The next morning….
"Ah…" said Sirius rising early, "This is a great day full of pranks and fun! Get up Prongs, Moony, and Wormtail!" The other three Marauders were not in the mood to get up.
"What day is today?" asked Remus,
"I believe it is Friday," said Sirius,
"Ok, classes are today, I'm up." Remus got out of bed, but James and Peter weren't so easy…
James was trying to finish up his lovely dream…
'Do you Lily Evans; take James Potter to be you're lawful wedded Husband…blah, blah, blah…'
'I –'SPLASH!
"What the!" cried James soaking wet, Sirius had just dumped a bucket of water on James and Peter.
"Padfoot you're going to pay! Evans didn't say 'I do' yet!"
"Uh- oh, Pads," said Remus "You should have waited a few seconds."
"I'm gonna run…" James started chasing Padfoot all around the dorm. Soon James cornered him, and Sirius turned into Padfoot and ran under James legs.
"Hey! Padfoot! That's against the chasing rules! No Animagi during chases – unless it's when Moony, turns into – well Moony!"
"Sorry Prongs," said Sirius back in human form, "Let's get to breakfast,"
"Ok," When they got to the doors Lily was waiting for them.
"Potter, the minute we walk through these doors the bet starts."
"What bet?" asked Sirius, the other Marauders looked a little bewildered too. Men, they can never remember anything! Lily glared at the Marauders,
"Oh that bet!" said Sirius again.
"Any last words?" Lily asked,
"Yeah, one minute," said James turning to his friends. "It's one day, think I can do it?"
"Prongs, of course you can!" said Remus,
"Don't worry buddy, we won't cause any trouble during the next 24 hours so you don't miss anything."
"Thanks guys, I'll miss you,"
"We can still talk you idiot!" said Remus, "Just not about pranks,"
"Oh well in that case I guess I can't bring up plan 6,744 –"
"Padfoot…"
"Fine, fine, good luck Prongs,"
"Thanks guys," James turned to Lily,
"I'm ready,"
"As am I," she returned, they each took a door handle, and pushed the door open.
Let the bet begin!
