A/N: Told ya this would be quick, didn't I? Anyway, I would just like to say an enormous thank you to my reviewers; you do not know how happy you make me… THANK YOU!
I hope you enjoy this chapter…
Disclaimer: Usually the longest bit and you probably get tired of reading them so this is going to be short (or at least it was): No J.K here, peeps – all original plot, just using the characters…
…
Remus Lupin stood there with his wand to his mouth at the foot of Sirius' bed.
'Moony! I was sleeping peacefully. You ruined my last sleep'
The werewolf raised an eyebrow and smirked. Sirius scowled, and reached for his curtains, but Remus stopped him.
'Sirius, its 7:30. Breakfast finishes at 8'
'So what?'
'You spend half an hour preening and I don't want to be late for Transfiguration again. You're lucky James is Head Boy, and I'm a prefect, otherwise it'd be detention for the lot of us.'
Sirius mumbled, but got up, complaining on the way to the bathroom. On the way, he bumped into Peter, who had just finished in there.
'Hey Pete?'
'Yeah, Padfoot?'
'Would you mind passing this to James at breakfast' Sirius pulled James' phone out of the pocket of his bottoms, where he had grabbed it out of his bag earlier.
'Sure' squeaked Peter and he walked past Sirius, leaving him to think over his plan once again.
…
Sirius strolled through the corridors of Hogwarts, happy. He made his way to Breakfast, and settled himself between Prongs and Evans.
'Morning! How is everybody today?' Sirius smiled around at all of his friends 'Good? That's good! Can someone pass the toast?'
He was met with looks of deep confusion.
'Toast? You know, the stuff you get when you toast bread?'
Still no-one moved.
'Ok, I'll get it myself. Lot of weirdoes you lot are, you know that' and Sirius practically jumped from the table, and walked down the hall passing not only one, but two plates of toast. The others watched him, befuddled.
'What's got into Sirius?' Lily asked Remus.
'I don't know. He was grumpy enough when I got him up this morning.'
'Has he had a drink this morning? Someone could've slipped him something' Marlene suggested.
'You!' James cried, pointing at Lily.
'Me?' Lily looked affronted and raised her hands.
'Yes you. You're sat next to him, and I know I didn't do it, and Pete here couldn't brew a cheering potion if he tried – no offence Pete ('None taken') – and you are the best at potions, not to mention pretty and innocent-looking so it must be you. Look! You're even blushing now! A sure sign of guilt!' Indeed Lily was blushing (and internally cursing her complexion, and the famous Evans' blush), but at that precise moment Sirius sat down.
'That's not the only thing that could make her blush, though Prongs. Why it could mean-'
'-a sure sign of over-heating, which is why I'm leaving. Now. Don't follow.' Lily butted into Sirius, her face flushing deeper and deeper, until she got up and practically ran out of the Great Hall.
'Great Padfoot, now she's gone' James scowled at Sirius.
'Follow her then'
'But she said not to follow her?' James was confused.
'Doesn't mean you shouldn't'
'James, follow her' Alice Prewett's voice cut through the argument. She looked at James. 'Follow her'.
James nodded.
'Well get going then, thickhead' Alice's teasing tone lifted the nature of the conversation, and, it also appeared, James butt, as he shot straight up and raced after Lily.
'Well, I reckon that's my cue to go as well' Sirius said, and he got up and walked out of the Great Hall, leaving his troubled friends to wonder at his behaviour.
….
Sirius ducked into a broom closet, needing some time to think, alone. He pulled out the Map, as well as his mobile phones. Studying the Map, he realised that Lily was already in their next class, Charms, and James wasn't too far behind. He pulled out his mobile phones, and turned both the pink and blue ones on. The sound of the buzzing was only drowned out by his own phone beeping – He was going to be running late if he did not get his butt into Charms within the next 30 seconds. He guessed that the plan would have to wait.
…
Settling into his seat next to McKinnon, Sirius just about made the class with time to spare. Flitwick nodded to him from atop his pedestal, and Sirius relaxed slightly. He liked this new teacher, especially as he was quite lenient, as long as you didn't arrive more than 5 minutes late without a good reason. Leaning back in his chair, he discreetly pulled out all three mobile phones and lazily surveyed the surrounding area to make sure that no-one was watching him.
Unfortunately someone was.
'Sirius!'
'Shh, shh, be quiet!'
'But how come you have-mmf!'
Sirius quickly leaned forward and kissed her, before she attracted attention to his having 3 different mobile phones. She stopped struggling, and her eyes closed, before there was a wolf-whistle, and Flitwick staring at him, looking slightly annoyed.
'Mr Black, if you could please keep your personal relationships to outside the classroom, I would be much obliged, thank you very much.'
'Yes Professor'
'You do realise, if you wanted a date, you could've just asked' Marlene looked at him, and he felt a little self-conscious.
Tearing himself from her gaze, he looked around, and saw Lily smirking at him. He grabbed his phone and typed
What're you smirking at, Evans?
It wasn't long before he got an answer.
Wouldn't you like to know…
You're really playing hard to get, aren't you Evans?'
I am not!
Don't deny it, I know that if Jamsie-poo asked you out you'd just wiggle your hips and distract him before walking away. But you can't deny you want to jump his bones.
'Jump his bones'? Really Sirius, could you get more eloquent?
Well, I do pride myself on my way with words.
I give up. I shouldn't even be talking to you anyway; I should be listening to Flitwick, and setting a good example as Head Girl.
Yeah, but you can't deny that talking to me is more fun. Anyway, you're a marvel at Charms. I reckon you know more than Flitwick here does.
I don't know more than Flitwick, otherwise I'd be teaching, wouldn't I? Now go away. I'm listening.
As you wish m'lady.
He finished the conversation, and picked up the pink one. There was the conversation, just as it had been, but from Lily's perspective. He smiled.
'So that's what they do! I was beginning to wonder if you had stolen them.'
Sirius cringed, and turned to the astonished eyes of Marlene McKinnon.
'What does the dark blue one do? Whose is that?' she seemed excited over this new development.
'Can't you guess?'
'Well, yes, but I want to see it in action'
Sirius turned the blue on one, and passed it to Marlene. She turned it over in, examining it.
'How did you do this?'
'That, my dear Marlene, is for me to know and you to wonder' and with that Sirius typed:
Oi, Prongs, you there?
The words appeared on the dark blue one, and Marlene gasped.
'Wow… but what help to you is this?'
'Well, it's nothing much really… It just lets me see all the conversation my dear James and Lily have together… And lets me interfere, if I would so wish'
...
A/N: I'm so sorry, but this chapter wasn't going anywhere, so I ended it as a failed one, and hope that you all can forgive me… I'll try to make the next one better… It should come quickly…
Not many more chapters to go! Almost there! Yay!
See y'all again soon,
