Rebecca's POV:
Soon enough I found myself in the girls dormitory, completely silent as Lilly and Alice, a girl who was also sharing the dormitory with us (apparently) spoke about random topics... like classes, and their homes and so on, thankfully they seemed to ignore me.
"Oi, aren't you that girl around Potter and Black" Alice called, her short hair framing her face, and though there was a slight sound of distaste in her voice, she didn't seem to mean it rudely.
"Yes... I'm Rebecca... Nissley" I added my last name on to the end shyly, but Alice didn't seem fazed by any of that.
"Well come on over here, or are you just going to hang around with the guys?" Alice asked, coming towards me and basically dragging me over to her bed.
"I'm Lilly, Lilly Evans" the red-head introduced herself.
"I know, I was there during the incident with Sev"
"You were? I didn't see you there... if you see him call him Severus though, I'm an exception!"
"That would be because I was in the corner"
"Oh..."
O.o
"You look terrible" were the first words I heard when I woke up, then again I couldn't really blame whoever said that. My blonde hair, which was almost white, was such a tangled mess I thought, this is really one of those things I'd like to put off for the next few days... perhaps even years, but before I could do anything I was attacked by two girls with hair brushes.
"You have horrible split ends"
"Your hair is bland"
"We have to style it"
"Didn't you ever have certain... styles for your hair to be cut in?" were amongst the next few sentences I heard. Eventually though, I managed to escape the wrath that is Lilly and Alice, and walked into the common room at just the same time as the guys did.
"You look terrible" I greeted in the same way I'd been woken up in, and technically it wasn't a lie. All of them looked dead tired with circles under their eyes, their uniforms (except Remus') were all worn sloppily and they looked... starved almost!
"Morning to you to" James replied grumpily.
"You're not a morning person are you Jamie?" I teased ruffling his already completely ruffled and disorderly hair. Well, if my hair wasn't allowed to have the 'I didn't brush my hair and never will' look, then his was going to have to be messy enough for the two of us!
O.o
We'd spent a few more days at Hogwarts, thinking and planning, and eventually they came up with a group name for us; the Marauder's!
They thought the name would make us stand out from the rest of the school and that it did. We'd come to a mutual hate with Snivellus and in public Lilly and Alice weren't my friends because of my other friends, behind closed doors however we were still very close friends... who were also gossiping maniacs.
"Oi, Beck!" my head snapped up, cracking as it did so just to see the familiar faces of the other Marauders.
"Oi, Black" I imitated "You're going to pay for my funeral or hospital fee's when I snap my neck because of you!"
"Come on Beck" someone... or more than one person, most likely James and Sirius grabbed me and pulled me from the table, dragging me to a corridor behind a portrait... yup, only here a few days and they'd already had detention and found secret passages!
"What d'ya want?" I asked lazily.
"We've finally done it Beck!"
"Done what?" I could sense the annoyance radiating out of my voice, but they didn't seem to care at all, they simply grinned.
"We've come up with our first prank" at the word prank I felt myself perk up a bit, straightening myself out I motioned for them to continue. "We've been thinking, Snivellus is a slimy, Slytherin git right? Well, since Sirius' whole family has been in Slytherin, not to mention so is Snivellus and they hate us, they deserve to be the victims of our first prank!" James stopped and started to look like he was thinking; yes he thinks as I've discovered, contrary to many people's belief, it's just he rarely thinks... yes... there is a small difference.
"Do you know what you're going to do?"
"Well..." Sirius started.
"They don't know, do they?" I asked Remus, who wasn't engulfed in a book for once, instead he was watching the exchange with amusement in his features.
"Not really"
"We do... we just don't know how we're going to do it..."
"Have you ever thought this through... like the fact that it you're going to be the best pranksters in the school YOU HAVE TO START THINKING ABOUT THINGS INSTEAD OF SAYING I HAVE AN IDEA AND NO IDEA HOW TO ACOMPLISH THE TASK YOU BLITHERING AND BLIND FOOLS WHO HAVE NO EXCUSE WHAT-"
"Beck"
"SO EVER, NEXT TIME YOU DISTURB MY LUNCH YOU COULD AT LEAST KNOW-"
"Beck"
"WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, BECAUSE THAT WOULD REALLY MAKE EVALUATING IT A LOT EASIER YOU STUPID-"
"REBECCA MARY NISSLEY!" Sirius shouted over the top of me in the end.
"Yes?" I asked politely.
"We know what we want to do... it's just we need your help" James said.
"Oh... in that case... I like cheese cake...strawberry cheese cake... do you like strawberry cheese cake?" they all exchanged amused glances, though they all looked torn between laughing and shaking their heads, so in the end Sirius and James were laughing and Remus was shaking his head.
"Did I say something wrong? Cause... it's true... I like strawberry cheese cake!"
"Do you want to know what you have to do in the prank before we go to the kitchens for strawberry cheese cake?"
"YOU FOUND THE KITCHENS?"
"Um... yes" James responded.
"WHY DIDN'T ANY ONE TELL ME, THIS PROVES MY POINT OF EARLIER THA-" my rant ended when someone's hand covered my mouth.
"We only found the kitchens this morning, but if you want we'll explain over cheesecake!" Remus reasoned with me, laughing slightly as I immediately smiled against his hand and stood on my tippy toes, almost growing up to James' height... sad fact, all of them (excluding Peter) were taller than me!
