The three girls were in down Diagon Ally. Heather was nearly running down the ally. Lily and Hermione kept on falling behind.
"What's the rush?" Hermione asked.
"I need to do something before we have fun," Heather said as she ran into one of the stores.
Hermione and Lily quickly followed her. Heather walked up to the owner of the store and took Blood Magic: Spells and Wards out of her robes. The owner looked at her with a welcoming smile on his face. He didn't seem to notice the book in her arms.
"I need to know if you sold this book to my mum," Heather said, handing the owner the book.
He looked down at the book and a frown appeared on his face. He went behind the counter and sat down, looking the book over. He pulled out his wand and began muttering spells at the book. Heather watched with great interest. Hermione and Lily went and stood by Heather and waited for the owner to say something.
"I would love to say I sold this book," he gave a small smile and looked up at the girls, "there were only a few copies of this book made. I'm surprised you even have a copy in such good condition. If I were you, I'd put this somewhere safe."
Heather took the book back and put it back in her robes. The three girls headed out the store, while the owner watched them very carefully. The girls walked away from the store. Lily quickly stopped Heather from walking. Hermione looked at them and quickly walked a few feet away from them.
"What was all that about?" Lily asked, folding her arms.
"I just wanted some information about this book," Heather said, "I wanted to know why my mum would buy such a book."
"The owner said there are only a few copies," Lily said, "Your mum probably saw a copy and wanted to buy it, knowing it would be worth a lot more in the future."
Heather just nodded her head. She knew her mum wouldn't buy a book just to sell it for more money. The two girls began walking down the ally. Hermione joined them after she noticed they had began walking away.
"Now, remember we are here to have fun," Lily said, looking at Heather, "so there will be no more talking about work."
Hermione and Heather nodded and the girls quickly ran off. The first place they stopped was a dress store. They entered the shop looking at all the colorful dresses.
"We have a very important discussion to discussed," Heather said, turning to Lily and Hermione. "We need to pick out a dress for my bridesmaids to wear."
The girls looked at each other, before running off in different directions around the store.
"I don't know if we should be doing this," Remus said, as he helped set the table in the small basement of the house.
"This will get the girls for sure," James said, "there is no way they can out prank this prank."
"Why isn't Sirius helping?" Remus asked, as he pulled out his wand and began casting spells on three chairs.
James looked up at Remus with a grin on his face. "Let's just say he won't be here for some time."
"What did you do?" Remus asked looking very worried now.
"Nothing bad," James's grin went bigger, "just a small prank that will help this prank go off."
Sirius sat in the closet upstairs, not looking very happy. His arms were tied behind his back, while his legs were also tied together. His mouth was taped shut, so he wasn't able to yell.
'I'm going to hex James when I get out of here,' Sirius thought, trying to untie his arms. 'I need to get out of his closet and hex him.'
James looked over all the things for the prank with a grin on his face. Remus looked it over, not looking very confident about this.
"I really don't see how you can pull this prank when they know you're going to pull it," Remus said.
"That is why the prank begins the way it does," James said, "don't worry, this will be the day that we won't soon forget."
The three girls came home just as it was getting dark. Lily stood in front of the door. Hermione and Heather looked up at her. She had a smile on her face.
"Remember not to be surprised at the prank, which will fail," Lily said, "we all know this to be true."
Lily turned around and opened the door. The three girls entered the house to see the lights were off. Lily flipped the switch and looked around. There were red and pink rose pedals on the floor. The girls looked at each other, a bit confused at the situation. The three girls followed the rose pedals to the basement door.
"This is too obvious," Heather said, "they want us to enter the basement."
"Now, Heather, lets not ruin the boy's prank," Lily sad, "I'm sure they worked really hard on it."
Lily opened the door and nearly fell over at what she saw. There were candles lining the walls, with a table at the bottom in the middle of the basement. The girls slowly walked down the stairs, looking around to make sure nothing was going to hit them. The girls looked at the table with all the food on it. There was a small note in middle that said To Girls From Boys. The girls stared at the note for about a minute, before Hermione finally picked it up off the table.
"Dear girls, we hope you enjoy this lovely dinner that we have worked so hard on all day," Hermione said, "p.s. We'll be down in just a few minutes."
"This is so sweet," Heather said, taking a seat.
"This is very odd," Lily said, pulling out her wand and muttering a few spells at the food, but nothing happened.
"Will you calm down," Hermione said, "you gave them a day to do something and they do something nice. You should be thankful they didn't pull a prank."
"You never know," Lily said, taking a seat, "the prank could come at any minute.
Heather rolled her eyes as she took a seat as well. Lily kept looking around, expecting something to pop out at any second, though, nothing did. They sat there in silence for about five minutes, the boys hadn't showed up.
"Where the heck are they?" Lily asked.
"They'll be here," Hermione said.
Sirius had gotten out of the closet, but was still tied up. He headed for the basement; luckily the door was still open. He crawled until he was at the top of the stairs. He pushed his back up the wall until he was in the sitting position. He kicked the other side of the wall, causing the three girls to look up at him. Heather was the first to stand up, though; she found that the chair came up with her. Lily and Hermione's chairs did the same thing. Just then the food flew into the air. The girls were too busy with the chairs; they didn't seem to have noticed, until the food began hitting them. Sirius watched as the girls tried to cover their faces and tried to get away.
Hermione had broken the chair legs off her chair. Lily had pulled out her wand and was trying to take the spell off the chair, though, not one spell was working. James and Remus came into the room to watch what was happening. James was laughing his head off. Heather looked up at them and pulled her wand out. She pointed at some of the flying food and said a spell. The food stopped flying around. Lily and Hermione stopped screaming and looked around. Heather looked up at the boys, who were looking at her. She said another spell just as James and Remus ran out of the room. The food followed right after them. After about ten seconds, you could here them screaming.
"That will teach you not to play with your food," Heather yelled, as the chairs fell to the ground.
Heather quickly ran upstairs to help Sirius.
"Now this might hurt a bit," Heather whispered.
Sirius eyes went wide. He shook his head and tried to pull his head away. Heather grabbed the end of one side of the tape. Sirius quickly closed his eyes, while Heather quickly pulled the tape off. Sirius gave aloud scream. Heather looked down at the tape to see that it had pulled out a lot of his hair. Heather threw the tape down and untied his legs and arms. His hands quickly flew to his face.
"My hair," Sirius whined, "it's all gone."
"No, it's not," Heather said, "it will grow back."
Heather stood up and helped Sirius to his feet. He looked down at his hands to see them covered in food.
"You really need a shower," Sirius whispered.
"I know I do," Heather sighed, walking to the door. She turned around to look at him. She pointed her wand in the air. Some food flew out of nowhere and began hitting Sirius. "You know you deserve that. You were part of the prank."
"I'll get you for this," Sirius screamed as he ran out of the basement.
"I really don't think you will," Heather yelled, "you can try and you will fail just like you failed now."
"Well," Lily said, "I hate to admit it, but they really didn't fail."
"Yes, they did," Heather said, know that Lily was a bit right, though, she wasn't about to admit it.
