Millie and Becky were wandering the school grounds. They were bored, very bored. There was nothing to do and everyone else was already doing something.

"I am going to die of boredom soon" Millie said, dramatically dying onto a near by bench. Becky rolled her eyes and handed Millie a hand to get back up, she took it.

"Well.. You wouldn't really die-"

"Becky don't over complicate. I cant be bothered for you to go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and-" Becky hit Millie (lightly) on the arm, "whose going on now?"

Millie laughed, "I cant help it! There's nothing to do!"

"Yes, we just covered that" Becky smirked at Millie's frown.

Becky swung round the tree they were just passing, Millie stopped and waited. "We could.." Becky said performing a full circle of the tree.

"Pull a prank?"

"Nah," Millie said half-heartedly.

"Why not?" Becky asked, a little surprised.

"Because... I don't know, ours are getting a little dated," She laughed, "I think we should-"

"Well I think we should at least try and get the bloody Marauders!"

"I'll ignore that interruption," Millie joked.

"But really," Becky continued "Should we?"

"Well there's only so much we can do" Millie sighed looking sad.

Becky crumpled up her nose, "I know" she responded.

They both fell silent. "What about that piece of parchment they never let anyone see?"

Millie bit her lip, "yeah, what about it?"

"Well," Becky responded, "we could see what it is.. I mean we don't have to, but like you said; 'I'm bored'"

"Well... isn' it just a bit of parchment?" Millie asked. Becky rolled her eyes.

"They're the Marauders. You'll bet there's something in it!"

"But what if it's nasty?" Millie asked worriedly. Becky snorted and started walking again, back to the castle with Millie following.

"Ooh, is poor ittie bittie Miwwie scared of a wickle bit of parchment?" She teased.

Millie punched her this time.

"No! I mean, y'know, something that would curse us! And anyway, where would Black, Potter and Lupin be?"

"Millie, you need to live life on the edge a little more!" Becky laughed, "And most likely in there dormitories!"

"Good point," Millie giggled, "A nice sunny day like this? They'll be sleeping in there beds, with the curtains drawn and the lights out! Well, maybe Lupin will be in the library or something."

"Ha! Yeah! You up for it then?"

"Um..." Millie bit her lip again, "Where's Pettigrew?"

"Potions tutoring." Millie raised her eyebrows and Becky quickly added, "I only know that because Lily is the tutor!" They both laughed.

"Okay... yes then!" Millie grinned and they began walking to the common room.

Millie muttered the password (phoenix feathers) and both her and Becky ventured in.

Hardly anyone was in the common room. Most of them seemed to be outside, perfect timing, they decided.

Becky and Millie creped up the stairs. Millie was pretending she was a spy on a very secret mission, while Becky was just focusing on a backup story. They just reached the boys room when Becky stopped causing Millie to smash into Becky who fell into the door making a 'thump'!

"Ouch! Millie!" Becky shouted in a hushed tone. Becky pushed back of the door, and turned round to glare at Millie.

"Way to be Miss discreet"

"You're the one who stopped!"

"Well I heard something!" Becky shouted then slapped her hand over her mouth.

Becky and Millie heard the unlatch of a door.

"Yeah..?" Mumbled a voice, and both girls focused on the face of a boy in the doorframe. Well tried to. It was hard when boy in question was topless.

"Umm..." Becky mumbled going bright red, Millie's mouth hanging just slightly open. The boy's focus sharpened and he jumped when he saw who was there, closing the door more so only his head peeped out.

"Becky! Millie! Uh... uh..." The boy said nervously. The girls seemed speechless, "I was um... just getting changed. To go to the library. Wont be a sec..."

The door closed again, and Millie turned to Becky. "Well..."

And they both burst into muffled giggles. A few minutes later, a ruffled and fully-clothed Remus Lupin exited his room, closing the door quietly. He was surprised to see the girls still there and they moved over, while he edged past them.

"James and Sirius are still asleep..." He said awkwardly turning around, "Uh... Did you want anything?"

"Well, we-" Millie started, but Becky interrupted.

"No, no, we're fine, Remus," She said sweetly. Remus made a little nod and turned to go.

"Just like him, eh?" Millie whispered to Becky just loudly enough for him to hear. Remus turned the corner, another red blush creeping up his cheeks.

"Right," Becky said, clapping her hands, "Let's go!"

Becky put her hand on the door-knob but the flinched back like she'd been poked in the ribs.

"What?" Millie asked, obviously confused.

"Eh, well, maybe we shouldn't" Becky stepped back from the door.

"What are you bi-polar? You were excited a second ago"

"Yeah, adrenaline rush is rather cool"

"'Tis cool" Millie commented, "but?"

"What if we get caught?"

Millie bit her lip, "every man for himself?"

"No" Becky looked dead serious, "because I'll end up being the one caught!"

"You wont" Millie laughed.

"Fine you can get caught" Becky reasoned.

"No!" Millie fumed. "We'll just leg it"

Becky rolled her eyes, "awesome plan"

"Well what else have we got to go on?"

Becky sighed, "good point, but you can open the door"
"fineeee" Millie whined.

Millie held one hand out to the door and held the knob in her hands ,breathing slowly. She suddenly thought, what the heck? So she just opened it really quickly, quietly and actually, a little squeakily. Becky and Millie both winced at it, but the two mounds of duvet on two beds didn't wake up. So they both entered.

"Pooh!" Millie spluttered, still whispering, as a horrible smell wafted around the room, "Is that-?"

"Smell socks!" Becky giggled, then looked around the room.

It was a dump! Apart from one bed, presumably Remus's. Food wrappers, cast of underwear and clothes littered the floor, while curtains had been thrown messily over the windows, blocking out most light apart from a very faded one corner. Remus's bed was in the far corner by the door, while the other three, one belonging to Peter, who wasn't there and one to James and one to Sirius, looked like a tip.

"Um..." Becky hesitated.

"Right," Millie said, rolling up her shirt sleeves, "You take Sirius's bed, and I'll take James's."

"Lily would be jealous," Becky forced a laugh, but wrinkled her nose in anticipation of getting near to a bed like that.

Becky looked over to Millie who seemed to be trying calculate a path to the bed. Becky meanwhile was stepping in-between clothes that was on the floor, trying to find any gaps that looked like safe places to step. She looked back at Millie who had moved closer to James' bed.

Becky was trying to contain a giggle that was trying to escape her lips.

Millie looked at Becky and couldn't help but laugh, both girls heads snapped to the boys who moved slightly in there sleep.

"Maybe this wasn't a good idea" Millie whispered to Becky.

"I have not just put on the best balancing show of my life not to find out what it is" Millie nodded in agreement.

Millie moved to James' bedside table. She looked around it, nothing. Millie shook her head and went to go look in his trunk.

Becky on the other hand was just focusing on not hurting herself. Not a good place for a clumsy person, not at all. She moved further round his bed until-Bam! The mattress creaked and Becky 'oofed' as she tripped over what looked suspiciously like an empty bottle of some kind and onto - horror of horrors - Sirius's bed! Millie's head snapped around to see Becky sprawled over Sirius Black who had jumped so largely, he'd hit his hand on the wall behind him. It took him less than a millisecond to figure out what had happened, and when he did, he yelped and tried to pull the duvet over his bare chest, but Becky was lying on it. On him.

Millie stood up properly and burst out laughing. This, and the scream from Sirius woke James up, with a very worried expression on his face. Millie now creased over laughing, and James, not even noticed her yet, jumped as well. The answer to that behind him falling out of the bed, the wrong side, right where Millie was.

"WRAAGH!" James yelled, as he landed.

"UURGH!" Millie yelled, as he fell. She was winded, and her face had been squished onto the dirty floor, and she shouted again, "AHHH!"

"GET. OFF. FUMAGALL!" Sirius started shouting, tugging desperately as the duvet and pushing desperately as the girl who was lying dazed on the bed.

"Potter, get off me!" Millie bellowed, trying to push herself up on her elbows. James, finally grasping the situation, quickly rolled to the side, coughing slightly. Millie gasped dramatically for air, as if she'd been stampeded on by elephants.

"What the hell..?" James asked loudly, staring at the girl on the floor by his bed and the girl on his best mates bed.

"Black, stop trying to get your duvet off of me!" Becky shouted.

"Fumagall, it's mine! Get off it, I-!"

"No, you're tangling me up in it, you dolt!"

Millie pushed herself up, as did James, who didn't seem conscious at all he was topless. Millie internally thought, did all boys sleep with no tops on? but said out loud, "Err..."

Becky huffed and just jumped up so she was standing on the side of the bed. "Well that was terrifying" Becky said dramatically, sighing and jumping off the bed.

Millie laughed, and nodded. James turned back and forth between the two girls utterly confused. Sirius shoved a t-shirt on and stood up too, looking back and forth between them.

"What is going on?" James finally voiced, Becky and Millie both locked eyes and simultaneity pointed at each other and yelled, "IT'S HER FAULT" Pause, "NO IT'S NOT!" Silence followed.

"Look ladies, I know you're both dazzled by James's very manly chest, but-"

"Shut up, Pads," James interrupted exasperatedly, running a hand through his hair.

"-BUT, we want answers," He continued, rasing his eyebrows at James, "Bleh." He moaned, flopping back down on the bed.

"Tired," He answered James's silent question.

"Can I defend myself?" Millie asked, but quickly added, "I mean, ourselves?"

"What?" James asked, slightly feeling conscious now, and scanning the room for his shirt.

"Oh, there's a spare top in your trunk," Millie said carelessly, and then winced, Becky following. James had just bent down, then froze.

"You've been looking in my trunk." It wasn't a question, it was a statement. Sirius raised his head from the bed.
Becky. Noting Millie's speechlessness decided to speak up.

"pffft! No! Honestly.. I mean even I can see your trunk…that's right in the corner of you room" Becky spoke slowly as she came to the end of the sentence seeing as it was actually rather hard to see the trunk.

Sirius laughed. Becky turned round and glared, "well Millie was closer than I was!"

"HA! So you admit!" Sirius said pointing a finger at Becky.

"Admit what?" Becky asked confused.

"Not you, but Millie. Millie was looking in James's trunk"

Becky caught on and looked to the side of the room, noticing Millie's glare, "..you've got nice walls?" Becky said awkwardly, trying to change the subject.

"I... what?" Sirius screeched, "You looked-? You-?"

"Walls, Black, not balls," Millie smirked. Sirius's smile dropped.

"You're not in the position to joke at me, Mrs trunk-looker-througher!"

"Great name, Black," Becky glared at him.

"Fumagalls a bit of a different name, huh-?"

"Don't start something on my bloody na-"

"Stop it guys!" James shouted, "Fumagall, Johnston - what the hell were you doing in our dormitory and ON US?"

"YOU fell on ME!" Millie demanded.

"That's not the point! It's my room! I can fall on who I want to fall on!" James shouted back.

"Prongs, that was amazing" Sirius smirked.

"Remind me to tell Lily to never come in here," Becky muttered, she was tempted to hold up her hand a receive a high-five, but now wasn't the time.

"I don't think you can really joke Fumagall, you fell on Sirius"

"Well maybe if your room wasn't so messy, I wouldn't of!"

"IT'S OUR ROOM!" Both James and Sirius yelled.

"You're right. It is." Millie said, looking directly at Becky, hinting her to move. "So we'll just be going now then!"

Both Millie and Becky began to make a move for it, when Sirius saw what Becky was about to do, he jumped and grabbed her round the waist, pulling her so she was on the bed, but stopping her from going anywhere.

"UGH. I knew I would get caught!" Becky huffed, at that split second Millie turned round James had time to reach for his wand and yell "Immobulus!"

"Oi!" Becky shouted and struggled to get out of Sirius's tightening grasp. She felt his hand go into her pocket and grab her wand, "Stop it!"

James looked from Millie, in mid-run, to Becky, to Sirius, and grinned, "You're the boss."

He flicked his wand up and Millie fell to the floor, hitting it hard. She stayed still.

"What've you done, you idiot! Becky shrieked, and Sirius loosened his hold on Becky, but not loose enough. James mumbled, "Shit," and quickly walked over to the figure on the floor.

He crouched down next to Millie, dropping his wand as he did, and carefully pulled back the blonde hair covering her face. Her eyes were closed.

"Shit. Can you do that from an imobilising spell?" Sirius asked, more to himself.

James ignored him and placed his ear above her face, checking for breathing. He failed to notice Millie's eyes spring open.

"HA!" She shouted, overturned James, and sat on him quickly, grabbing his wand. She pinned his wrists down with her knees and pointed the wand at Sirius.

Becky smirked, Millie you are the best! She thought silently.

Sirius too smirked, Millie raised an eyebrow.

"Let go of Becky, now, or I will hex you"

Sirius did not let go but he raised Becky's wand to her neck.

"Who's wand is that?" Millie asked.

"Fumagalls. If you curse me I'll curse her, how do you feel about boils Fumagall?" Sirius grinned, tightening his grip more, now that he was just using one arm to restrain her.

Becky glared. "Well, I.." Becky mocked deliberated, exchanging a glance with Millie who nodded slightly. "Maybe-" She drew her elbow up and jabbed it down sharp and hard, right where it hurt into Sirius.

"OOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" He howled and instantly let go of Becky, clutching his you-know-what's. Becky jumped up and Millie chucked her James's wand.

James stopped struggling for a minute, trying to get over the face he was getting overpowered by a GIRL. A girl! He was a Marauder, and he couldn't let this happen. Sirius was unusable so he relied on his own talents.

"Johnston?" He asked. No response. "Millie?"

Millie looked down at him, "What?"

"Your top's a little... um... low," He grinned. At once, Millie's hands flew up to her buttons and she quickly looked down. Nothing. But James had used this time to grab her shoulders and force her to the floor where HE pinned her down. It was all going swimmingly, minus Sirius rolling on the bed in pain. And a sharp jab in the back of his neck which felt horribly like his own wand.

Sirius (still rolling around) was trying to find his wand. Talk about attack of the girls, he thought.

"James" Becky used a sickly sweet voice, "don't do anything you'll regret"

"Using someone's own wand against them.. Low, very low" James said, not daring to turn around.

As James mentioned that Becky remembered just where, more like who, she'd left her wand with, she also just noticed someone wasn't howling in pain.

Becky was tempted to turn around, but she didn't know if she could risk it. James had yet to turn around either.

"What are we, in some stupid muggle movie?" She tried to keep the conversation going.

"Can I just say, Potter, you're crushing me!" Millie added, gasping for effect.

"I would move, but I might get jabbed in the eye by a mass murderer behind me!" James declared annoyed. Becky nudged his back with her foot, hard.

"Ow!" He exclaimed, "What are you going to do, huh?"

Becky raised her eyebrows, "I can do more than you think-"

Suddenly there was a sound loud a whip cracking and Becky found herself being tugged by the ankle up in the air. She shrieked, blood rushing to her head and grabbed in the air as her one and only weapon, her wand fell to the ground.

James's head spun around, and he looked at what was happening. Sirius's eyes were watering, but he was sitting up on the bed, his wand pointed at Becky.

"Levicorpus?" James grinned and Sirius laughed, "Yes!"
"Oh, am I glad I wore trousers today" Becky muttered.

Millie couldn't help but laugh, that was until James grabbed his wand and pointed it at Millie.

"Is this just going to go on, and, on and-"

"Millie! I've told you, you're the only one that goes on like that!" Becky shouted.

"Sorry," Millie muttered, "but James you really are crushing me"

"Yeah, and I'm getting a headache! .DOWN." Becky yelled, and performed a movement that looked like if she was on the ground it would of resembled 'foot stomping.'

"Hmm. Why should I put you down?" Sirius asked.

"Because I've done nothing wrong!"

"Correction: You've stormed into our dormitories, woken us up, fell on me, then elbowed me in the nuts! Yes you have!"

"But I didn't curse you!"

"Neither have I," Sirius smiled.

"Why is James pointing a wand at me though?" Millie interrupted.

"So you don't do anything drastic," James answered dryly.

Millie frowned in annoyance and quickly unwedged her arms from beneath James's knee.

"Right, well I'm going to pass out soon, do you know how much it hurts being held upside down? How do bats do it? Oh, wow.. Imagine if this was job! Oh no, that'd be horrible!" Becky babbled.

"Fumagall? Are you okay?" Sirius asked, a little bit worried.

Becky ignored to him.

Millie started hitting James, James raised an eyebrow, "are you really that weak?" James questioned.

"Okay, so I have no muscles! I never said did! But you're like crushing me!" Millie said taking in a breath.

"And I will not talk until I've been let down" Becky said closing her eyes.

"Well then we're gonna have to find away you wont run away" James said to Sirius.

"We wont!" Millie said, James gave her a 'yeah right' look. "If that was true we wouldn't be where we are now"

"What, so you think you'd escape us?" Sirius mocked and Millie ignored him this time. Well, tried to.

"What is this, some jungle that's infested with snakes and rats and bats, and-"

"Stop babbling, Millie." James muttered.

"Well, there's a bat here," Millie joked, "Hey James, look."

James looked.

"Can you see all my fat from here?" She asked.

James sighed and stood up. Sirius raised his eyebrows, as did Millie when he extended a hand to help here up, but she took it, and brushed herself off.

"Sirius, they're right. This isn't some weird kidnapping by death eaters or anything. Why don't we just ask them civilly?"

Everyone was silent in surprise.

"Great! Now let me down Black!"

Sirius pulled a face, "fine, but I want an apology" Sirius let Becky down. As Becky landed on her feet she fell to the floor, "head rush"

Becky put her head onto her knees. "That was so unfair. I hate you Black" she muttered.

Sirius rolled his eyes. "Right. So what were you two actually doing?"

"We were looking for a peace of parchment" Millie said. Becky lifted her head up off her knees and sat on the bed next to Sirius.

James and Millie sat on the edge of James's bed.

"So you felt the need to come into our room a find a bit?" James asked.

"Not just a piece of parchment" Millie spoke softly.

"But this piece of parchment" Becky said holding it up, smiling slightly.

James, Sirius and Millie's eyes widened.

The boys had yet to make a move for it. "When did you get it?" Millie asked.

"Just now, when I was hanging upside down, I noticed it on the floor"

"Well why did you want to know what it was?" James asked.

"We were bored" Millie shrugged.

"We had opportunity" Becky said.

"You're always secretive about it" Millie finished.

Becky bit her lip and extended her arm out to Sirius who looked at her confused.

"Sorry, and here have it back" Becky said like it was the hardest thing she had to do in her life.

"Eh. Your giving it back?" James asked.

Becky nodded smiling, "only this once, so take it before I change my mind" Sirius took it out her hand.

"Right. Well we'll just be going then" Millie said getting up.

"it's a map" James said cautiously. Becky sat back down again, hoping to hear more, Millie stayed standing.

"Prongs!" Sirius hissed.

"But that's all you're getting girls. Oh. And don't sneak into are room again?"

"Fine" Millie muttered.

"Becky-" Sirius started,

"And I wont either! Honestly!"

"Not that, apology accepted" Becky grinned and nodded.

Just as they were about to leave, Remus came in with Peter, and Lily helping peter carry some books.

"Oh," Remus said, "did you girls get what you wanted?"

"Whe-WHAT?" James said.

"Oh, I ran into them outside earlier" Remus said casually.

Lily rolled her eyes, "what did you four do? The room is a mess!" Lily scolded.

"Oh no. Don't blame this on me or Millie, it was already like that when we came in"

Lily folded her arms. "So how was your day?" Lily said asking her friends as they began to walk out.

"Hmm.. Like a weird twisted scary movie, that just went on and on and on and on"

"Eh, okay then." Lily smiled, Becky and Millie laughed, glancing back at the boys.
Remus waited till they were gone. "So what really happened?"

"Meh." Both James and Sirius said flopping onto there beds. It was really time for a rest now.

~END~
