The next few days seemed to breeze by. With Sirius' arm draped around my shoulders, I felt I could go anywhere; do anything. The Marauders were sure to pass every subject, what with how much studying we were doing in preparation for our exams.
So, it came as little surprise to me that James and Sirius were soon bored by this 'dull' routine.
"We should do something," announced James after dinner one night.
"We are doing something," I answered. My Potions book was open on my lap and I was reciting the ingredients used for a Swelling Solution.
"I mean something worthwhile, Moony. Potions is rubbish," said James.
I began to protest, but Peter cut across me. "What are we gonna do, James?"
James looked at Sirius and winked. "I'm sure we'll figure something out."
