James Potter yawned as he lounged on the grass underneath the old oak tree. "You know, Padfoot, of all days to be irresponsible and lazy, you really picked a winner." He lifted his head slightly, rumpling already-messy black hair, and then dropped it down to the dirt again. The boy's white long-sleeved shirt was creased and slightly dirty, tie flipped off to the side. "I simply must congratulate you."

"I know, I have a special talent." Sirius' shirt wasn't quite as wrinkled as his friend's, but he looked even sloppier due to the fact that the top three buttons were undone. He idly swung his wand from his fingertips, back propped against the trunk of the ancient tree. "I mean, really, studying for OWLs today of all days? What a crime!"

"The only crime here is that you two are going to fail the tests. Although come to think of it, that would mean some quiet around here for once." Setsuna didn't look up from her Potions notes, sitting cross-legged a few yards away from the boys. "At least Remus and Peter have the good sense to try."

"Wormy couldn't pass these tests if you gave him the answers," Sirius said impatiently. "Remus is wasting his time; he should be out here with us slacking off!"

"And snogging you, Setsie." James ducked as Setsuna's Arithmancy textbook assaulted his skull. "You two looked rather cozy in the common room last night." Setsuna shot him a look that would have made Sirius' cousin Bellatrix cringe. James, used to it, just smirked. "Well don't get your panties in a twist."

"It'd be harder for Moony to get them off." Sirius yelped and rolled out of the way of a Bat-Bogey Hex.

"BOTH of you shut UP or I swear…." Setsuna let the threat hang and returned to her studying looking distinctly annoyed.

"You're absolutely no fun at all." Sirius pouted and threw himself back down onto the grass. "Wish the others would come out, it's boring out here."

As soon as Sirius said this, James started looking around the grounds. "He's gotta be here somewhere, you can see his greasy head a mile away….no Snivellus here, no Snivellus there….bollocks, he's not around." The Seeker growled and folded his arms. "And I was looking forward to it, too."

"You could play fetch with Sirius," Setsuna suggested, the tiniest of smirks tugging at her lips. She swept her long emerald hair over her shoulder and scribbled something down in the margins of her page. "I'm sure he could catch that Snitch you nicked."

"NOT funny," Sirius growled, chucking a couple of twigs at her. Both fell short of the mark. He had that distinctly Sirius Black look that just screamed 'I'm about to have some fun—at least my definition of it', but before his wand was clear of his pocket a hand grabbed his arm.

"Sirius, I'd appreciate it if you didn't hex my girlfriend." Remus' tone was stern, but there was an amused glint in his brown eyes. Sirius grinned, stowed the wand and tossed his arms around Remus' neck.

"Hiya, Moony, I missed you."

"Me too." James stood up and did likewise so that Remus was sandwiched in between the two boys. "Setsie is being a prat."

"No, you two took that title a long time ago. Us mortals can only aspire to it. Where's Peter?"

"Oh, Lily took pity on him and relieved me of my duties. Good thing, too, I was getting frustrated. Peter is a good friend, but sometimes he's thicker than this tree." Remus shook his head. "I worry about that boy."

"Well, never mind him." James and Sirius each grabbed one of Remus' arms and dragged him down to the grass with them. "C'mon with us and be lazy. Terribly fun."

"Therapeutic too. Stress relief and all that."

The three boys lay for a while talking about the upcoming match between Slytherin and Ravenclaw as Setsuna worked. A comfortable half pour passed before Sirius nudged James and grinned devlilishly. "You know what just occurred to me, Prongs?"

"Whazat, Paddy?" James propped himself up on his elbows. Remus did likewise, giving his two friends a mildly curious look.

"It's getting a bit warm out, wouldn't you say?" Sirius had that look again. James grinned.

"Why yes, I think it is. What say you, Moony?"

"Erm….sure, I s'pose." He frowned. "What are you up to?"

"Well," Sirius said in a mock-concerned tone, pulling a face to match, "Setsuna's been sitting out in the sun for some time now. Be a shame if she got overheated."

"As her friends, it's our duty to make sure she doesn't get sunstroke or heat exhaustion." James turned to Sirius. "Padfoot, you know the best way to cool someone off quickly?"

"Mr. Potter, I believe we have work to do."

Remus groaned, fell back and covered his arm with his eyes.

"You've been at it for a while now." James crouched on Setsuna's right and peered over her shoulder. "You're writing your notes out again?"

"Yes." She was distracted, barely looking at him as her quill danced across the parchment. "It helps memorization to write things a few times over."

"Seems a lot of work." Slowly, gradually, the two boys set hands on Setsuna's arms. Sirius gave James a smirk. "Aren't you hot?"

"No, not rea—"

"NOW!" Together they lifted Setsuna and more or less plopped her into the lake. She shrieked, coming up completely wet. On the bank, James and Sirius howled with laughter, slapping each other on the back and wiping their eyes.

"Prongs—you are—the best mate anyone could have," Sirius gasped.

"This was—your idea—my hat off to you—Mr. Paddy, sir," James choked in between laughs.

"JAMES POTTER AND SIRIUS BLACK, I SWEAR TO GODRIC I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!" Setsuna's eyes were twin pools of crimson fire.

As Sirius and James took off running with an irate, sopping Ravenclaw on their tails, Remus closed his eyes and pretended he didn't know any of them.

Up until then, it had been a very nice day.

I can so see Haruka doing this sort of thing. Reviews are appreciated!
