"Oof!" James said as he was woken up by a book hitting him in the stomach. He opened his eye's groggily to see Sirius looking down at him amused.
"Long night?" He asked smugly. James rubbed his head and sat up.
"What time is it?" Sirius raised an eyebrow but looked at his watch.
"Time for class, but I suggest you go to the dorm and take a shower. You can't go to class like this." James looked down at his pants which were unbuttoned still and his shirt which was also unbuttoned. He could smell the after effects of last night lingering in his nostrils and decided that he was probably right. "Well, you could but I wouldn't recommend it."
"Yeah 'kay." He said, groggily standing up and picking up his stuff. They left the Library and Sirius said.
"Well see ya, I'm gonna be late." James waved and made his way up to the common room making a mental note to thank Sirius the next time he saw him. He got to his dorm and slipped himself groggily into the shower. He looked at his schedule, potions with the Slytherin's after lunch well that'll be interesting He thought picking up a chocolate donut that Sirius had left for him. When he did a note feel off the table from underneath. James looking confused, picked it up.
Hey James, thought you might need this, cause I mean it's not fair that only Regulus got the cream.
Sirius --- turn this over.
"Oh ha, ha."James said as he turned the paper over.
Morning Prongsie, I hope you slept well in your Library chair. Next time we have a little fun you hopefully will have something more comfortable to sleep on.
Regulus xoxo
James smiled, folding the paper and putting it in the pocket of the flesh pair of jeans he had put on. He took a bite of his donut while he got ready.
"ahh.." He cried out as a gooey something came out of his donut. A cream filled donut.
"Oh very clever." He said sarcastically, licking cream off his lips. "Never thought you had such a wit about." He finished his donut, got dressed and headed down to the great hall for lunch. He slid down the banister and of course got reprimanded. He assured Professor Flitwick that he would never do it again and headed into the hall. He saw Sirius wave him over, smiling he headed over to his three friends. Sirius on one side and Frank Longbottom on the other.
"So…" said Frank. "…I hear you had some fun last night." James dropped his fork and glared over a Sirius, who smirked at him.
"Do you mind not telling the whole of Hogwarts about my love life." Sirius chuckled.
"Aw, come on man its juicy news."
"Not when it's a griffin and a snake it's not." James replied angrily taking another bit of his potato salad. Sirius nodded in understanding.
"Don't worry I just told Frank…" Sirius said. "…I would think he would understand, considering that he's been in your position before." James looked up startled. Frank looked at Sirius in a scarily James like expression.
"The fact that you shared that information out so willingly to your friend makes me wonder who else you have told." Sirius smirked.
"I'm not going to tell anyone…" He said taking a bit out of some sort of pastry reminding James of his little morning dessert.
"Thanks for the treat earlier; I needed a good morning cream." James had tried to make the sentence sound as sexual as he possibly could which proved successful as Sirius coughed Pumpkin Juice through his nose, James chuckled. Frank looked confused and James explained it to him as Sirius cleaned up the remnants of his Pumpkin Juice volcano. Frank and the rest of the Marauders laughed, Remus looked at his watch and tapped it at the rest of the group.
"Class time."
"Yum…" Sirius said. "…Potions." He hissed the word in James' ear making him look over to the Slytherin table, as he stood up. Regulus caught his eye, grinned and licked his lips closing his eyes. James quickly grabbed the edge of the table so that he wouldn't fall over. He could see Regulus chuckle to himself as Sirius supported James slightly out of the hall.
They entered the Potions classroom, the din and cold of the dungeon room made James shiver more then usual. Professor Slughorn informed them that they would be working in pairs today and once more he would be pairing them with a opposite house member. Oh figures James thought to himself as Slughorn read off his list of pairings.
" and ." James picked up his bag to move over across the isle to the seat next to Regulus. Regulus didn't look at him, so they sat in silence while Slughorn told them which potion they were going to make.
"Amortentia, the love potion…" Slughorn said as he wrote down the ingredients on the board. Oh perfect, just perfect he looked over at Sirius, who smirked at him. James waved his wand at a couple of shelves making ingredients fly towards him. He began building his potion, looking at his book, cutting or smashing or squeezing or just adding things to his pot and then stirring them. As he looked at his book once again he saw Snape slid a note down to Regulus. Regulus read it, smiled and then went back to brewing his potion. James tried to do the same, but couldn't seem to focus now. To busy thinking about what Snape had written to Regs. He was so distracted in fact that his potion had begun to boil rapidly, he tried turning down the heat for some reason however the potion continued to boil. Panicking he made to move out of the way incase it exploded(which had been known to happen). But before he could move Regulus stuck a hand down his trousers, James stopped moving instantly. He felt something spurt out of his nose and into his potion. His potion turned from it's fatal state into love potion perfection. The wafts of steam gently spiraling up and away from his potion. Regulus pulled his hand out of James' trousers and smiled at the stunned and bloody-nosed James, who still had not recovered. The end of class came and soon the students were packing up their things. James felt Regulus slid past him and head to the door, as Regulus past he felt a slight bump and he smiled leaving the room with the rest of the Gryffindors and 200 points for an excellent potion.
