Chapter 4

'So, how'd the meeting go?' a cheerful Kay greeted Lily as she returned to their compartment. Lila, who was a prefect had returned 1st, while Lily organized the rest of the papers.

'Well,' Lily said, 'it didn't really goI handed out schedules, welcomed the new prefects and all that and he just stood their nodding and agreeing with me. Well most of the time at least.'

'Well, that's good, isn't it?' Rach said.

'Well there was the one thing at the beginning with the-'Lila started.

'Hello ladies!' Sirius said as he came strolling in, sitting down and propping his feet up on Rachel, who threw them off in disgust. The rest of the Marauders came in.

'Sirius, shut up, Lila was just about to tell us about something funny that happened at the beginning of the meeting.'

James turned bright red. At that moment Remus and Lila cracked up laughing. Everyone turned to them like they were crazy and James started inching toward the compartment door. Lily was suddenly absorbed in her book.

'Wait, what happened?' Rach and Sirius said together.

Lila found her composure, 'Well, Lily came in late and completely soaked, said she was sorry she was late and started to gather papers to pass out. James was just standing there staring like a fish out of water and all the prefects were trying not to crack up. When she finally realized what was going on she blushed and tapped her clothes with her wand to dry off,' Lila burst in to laughter again, 'it...was...so...funny! You just have to picture it, our perfect Head Girl, straight O student, teacher's pet, never late, always prepared, comes in to her own meeting ten minutes late sopping wet, and our Head Boy standing there like an idiot,' she gasped and fell to the floor laughing along with everyone other than Lily and James.

Most of the group eventually stopped laughing and got up, except for Sirius and Lila. Remus gave them each a hand-up, being the sensible one and trying to stop the laughing because both Lily and James looked really embarrassed. When Remus and Lila realized they were holding hands they blushed and looked away. Sirius couldn't stop laughing and everyone was just staring at him.

'Oh shut up Sirius,' Lily said breaking the silence at last. 'This is your entire fault anyway.'

Everyone stared at Lily. 'What' she said wondering why they were all staring at her.

'Earth to Lily,' Kay said softly, 'He wasn't even there.'

'Actually,' Sirius said trying not to laugh, 'it is my fault. I poured a bucket of water on her. Oh and by the way, Prongs,' James looked up. 'You're right, she's hot when she's mad and when she's wet, but even hotter when she's mad and wet.'

With that all the Marauders cracked up and the girls just stared wondering what the hell was going on. Well not Lily so much, she just thought that the boys were probably insane. Great. I'm stuck I compartment with four insane boys, my friends have no clue what the hell's going on, and I made a complete idiot of myself at the prefect meeting. A lovely start to a perfect year.
