Sirius' P.O.V

"Agent Prongs, the switch has been made. They have not suspected a thing." I said into the mirror which must have been the sole reason for my survival during detentions. James and I had decided that it was time for our annual, back to school prank. This time though, we were doing some charity work alongside. After about a weekend of convincing James managed to convince me that this time the credit for the prank should not be given to the marauderers but to little miss prissy, Lily Evans.

You see the problem is she made some kind of strange bet- a bet that she will probably lose- and as a result the credit for managing to pull of the amazing prank will go to her. Honestly speaking, if you ask me then all of this, the bet and stuff is all her problem but given James,ummmm, little crush it becomes his problem too and as a result mine too.

Seriously, the amount of trouble James goes through for her. I don't lift a finger and yet every girl at Hogwarts is ready to go out with me; even though they it will not last for more than 36 hours. I mean, I can't really give all my attention to just one girl for a long period of time because then the rest of the female population will start feeling bad; I can't just deny the others the company of the one and only Sirius Black now, can I?

James can also get any girl he wants almost as easily as I do, but he seems so indifferent towards all of them. Last week in the library, Abigail Spence asked him if he would help her find her earring which she had dropped at the secluded corner at the back of the library-she was wearing both of her earrings- and he refused saying that he had to go feed his owl. And get this, he does not even have an owl. I have no idea how he refused, I would have never done it, but then again I am not convinced that a certain bad-tempered, red-haired girl is my soulmate.

Seeing a passing house-elf snapped me out of my reverie. Yes, a house-elf. I am just outside the kitchen. You see, for this prank the mixed brains of James and me came up with one awesome idea: attack the great hall. After some careful planning we managed to enchant a whole lot of cutlery and make a huge switch. It is not as simple as it sounds though, first we had to steal the entire lot, then we had to figure out how to enchant it and then finally we had to replace it again. And we had to ignore Moony's disapproving frowns during all this, not to mention Wormtail's not needed help.

But the good thing is now that all the hard-work is done, we can just kick back and enjoy the show.

Lily's P.O.V

I know now. You remember that crazy thing James had been talking about. Yeah, well I know what that was all about. I have to admit, if I was in on the joke then I would be finding it funny, although the rest of the hall seems to be enjoying despite the fact that the jokes on them. This entire thing has been done on my behalf I suppose and because of that tiny detail I would have appreciated it if I had been warned of this beforehand. Maybe then I would not be covered in chicken gravy and rice.

Potter and his little group of attention seekers some how managed to do something to the spoons and forks and as a result, whenever somebody tried to eat from it the spoon would magically tip and the content would obviously fall all over your clothes.

The outcome of their little prank is that every one in the hall looks like a toddler who hasn't yet learned how to eat properly-including the professors. Speaking of which, Professor Mcgonagall looks absolutely livid. I wonder if Potter is going to come alive out of this one, i certainly hope not.

Oh shit, I can see Potter waving at me. What do I do? I mean, for one I look ridiculous with all the food on me- not that I care about how I look in front of Potter- and secondly, that awful Sirius Black is with him.

"Hey, Evans. So what do you think?" James asked.

"You mean , about all of this?" I ask pointing at my food covered clothes,"You know i feel about all your pranks Potter, I do not need to repeat myself every year. And, I would have appreciated it if I had warned about this before since I assume all this was done on my behalf." I look around and notice that extremely conveniently Peter and Remus have not come down for lunch, I would have probably done the same had I known.

"Awww, come on Evans, that can't be all you have to say." Said James

"Evans, just cut the man some slack, why don't you? He went after so much of trouble for you." Sirius said.

"You know what, you both are so lucky that I am controlling my temper right now because given a choice I will gladly hex you both into your next lives. So, a suggestion, if you want some praise to inflate that already huge head of yours, then don't come to me."

"But Evans, don't be mad. All this has been done for you. Consider this to be a token of my love for you." Said James with pleading eyes.

"Potter, don't you dare start off again. Can't you see I'm not in the mood right now? And if this a token of your love then you have a strange way of showing it. Your love, I mean."

"You know, you can be a little grateful Evans, I mean, if we were not here, then you would probably end up kissing the floor that Jordan walks on. Literally." Sirius said in that annoying voice of his.

"Whatever, I'm leaving," I said and made my exit. Don't get me wrong, I totally wanted to chew off Black's head back then but I couldn't help but see logic behind his words.

Accepting James Potter's help. I can't believe I'd stoop this low.
