"Mate are you out of your mind?" James asked while packing his trunk for tomorrow.
"Not at all. I have a plan." Sirius said lying on James' bed with his hands behind his head.
"And what might that be?" James said with serious doubt about the whole thing. Sirius had pulled a lot of crap with girls and taking their clothes off but… Bellsum?
"We are going to win the cup this year aren't we?"
"Yeah, so?"
"Well, of course being the wonderful Gryffindors we are, we are going to party."
"Yes, continue."
"And I heard from the grape vine that our sweet little Bellsum can't walk away from a dare or a bet."
"We know that now smart ass."
"Yes, but she also has never had a drop of alcohol in her life."
"I knew there was a reason I kept you around."
"Oh face it James you're in love with me and want to have hot steamy sex till the sun comes up"
"Wow that was more than I needed to hear. " Remus said walking in the room while covering his ears.
"You're just jealous because you can't keep me, Fido."
"I think I could do a hell of a lot better than you, Padfoot." Remus said flopping onto Sirius' bed.
"Are you calling me fat?" Sirius sputtered out as he stood up and put his hands on his hips. James chose that moment to start laughing at Sirius and Remus.
"James Potter you did not say that last night! Do you hear me?" That only made James laugh harder and Remus join in until they were both on the ground laughing.
"Boys what is so funny?" Mrs. Potter walked into the room with a curious look on her face holding clean clothes for James and Sirius.
"They think I'm fat! Can't they understand that it's just water weight! It'll go down in a few days." Sirius faked sobbed and ran out of the room towards the kitchen.
"I'm glad that I'm not the one living with him for nine months… I'm going to miss my Sirius though."
"Mom, what about me?"
"Shut it James I'm tired of you… it's about time you left me." Mrs. Potter winked at her son. "I always miss you my sweet boy." She kissed him on his forehead before saying "Remus you keep my boys in line."
"I'll try…" Remus said glaring at James who was whistling the tune to I'm a little teapot.
"Where is Peter by the way? His mum sent him the books he forgot." Mrs. Potter asked with a curious expression until they heard a crack and boom.
"SON OF A BLOODY OGRE… MRS. P YOUR STO VE JUST BIT ME! GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF!" They heard Sirius from the kitchen and all ran down to see what he was talking about.
"My God, are you sure he doesn't dye his hair black James, because the boy is trying to disarm my stove." Mrs. Potter said holding in her laughter at Sirius who was standing on the kitchen table screaming like a girl and shooting spells at the stove which was shooting flames at him.
"I wonder when he's going to figure out it doesn't have a wand." Remus said holding himself up on the wall he was laughing so hard.
"This reminds me of the time I said the spell wrong and lit him on fire." Peter said behind them in his pajamas and wet hair.
"CRAP, NO! NOT THE HAIR! NOT THE HAIR!" Sirius screamed before Mrs. Potter busted out laughing at her "adopted" son dancing on the kitchen table with a pot over his head trying to protect his hair.
"WILL ANYONE HELP ME BEFORE I DIE OF THE FRICKEN STOVE BURNING ME INTO A REBORN PHEONIX! PLEASE!!" Sirius yelled the four of them who were laughing uncontrollably at his random out bursts.
"What's going on? Oh Sirius let me help you!" Mr. Potter said walking through the door and freezing his wife's stove.
"I could have done that." Sirius mumbled jumping down from the kitchen table with the pot still on his head.
"Then why didn't you?" asked Remus with a smile on his face.
"Because then we wouldn't have had anything to talk about tomorrow." Sirius said hitting James behind the head for his uncontrollable laughter.
When Mrs. Potter finally pulled herself together she asked "Sirius, dear, why don't you take the pot off your head?"
"No, I need it for protection." Sirius said matter of factly.
"What is it supposed to protect you from?" She asked levitating the stove back in place absentmindedly.
"From keeping my hair from turning magically blonde overnight." Sirius said looking at James who had finally pulled himself together.
"What? I wouldn't do that." James said grinning as he, Remus and Peter followed by a skeptical looking Sirius headed for their room. They had to catch the train tomorrow and they needed their sleep.

"Wake up! Wake up! It's here! Our seventh year starts today!" yelled Lily as she jumped on the bed with Kat sleeping on it.
"Five more minutes mum. I promise I'll get up just five more minutes." Kat mumbled as she pulled the covers over her head and went back to snoring.
"Come on you lazy bum! Get up or I will pour cold water on you." Lily said pulling the covers off the bed completely only to realize that Kat wasn't moving. Then she had an idea. A very good idea.
"Kat, baby, I'm going to take your clothes off in your sleep and you ain't even going to know it. Be prepared to wear my jersey all night long…" Lily said in her best man voice and laughed when she saw Kat sit up with wide eyes.
"Don't you ever do that again. It scared me shitless."
"But it got you up. Come downstairs my mum is making pancakes." Lily said standing in the doorway to make sure Kat wouldn't fall back asleep again.
"You know the only reason I took that bet is so he won't be able to talk to me after this year… even if he aggravates me the whole year it's going to be worth it in the end." Kat sighed as she leaned on her elbows, stretching.
"Yes, but this time when you got yourself involved with Sirius Black, you got us involved with Sirius Black. And where there is Sirius Black, there are the marauders and where there are the marauders there's their leader, Potter."
"What if I juiced up the deal to make them all stay away from us?" Kat said smiling at her friend who suddenly took in an interest at Kat's affairs with the marauders.
"How are you going to make the deal sweeter?" Lily asked perplexed at the thoughts that might be going through her friend's mind.
"Leave it to me. I promise it won't include you, you will only get the benefit of James Potter leaving you alone." Kat said meeting Lily at the doorway before taking her hand and walking down to the kitchen where Paige and Lisi were making funny faces at Petunia.

"So Bellsum do you need help getting onto the platform?" Sirius said leaning against tha side of the platform.
"As much as I love your help Black I think I might just have to say no… unless you would mind helping me with something else?" Kat asked stepping to the side to let a group of first years pass into the platform.
"And what that be?" Sirius asked his face closer to hers.
"When I win the bet I want James to stay away from Lily." Kat said moving her face closer to his as well.
"Nope. James would kill me."
"What if I gave you something in return?" Kat asked blinking her long dark lashes.
"You have my attention…"
"When I win the bet…"
"If, if you win the bet."
"Yes, if I win the bet than after graduation I will snog you anyplace anytime for one hour."
"Ha I could get you to do that without the bet."
"No you couldn't"
"Yes I could"
"No"
"Yes"
"NO"
"YES"
"NO"
"NO"
"YES"
"Well since you insist Bellsum." Sirius said before grabbing Kat behind her waist and pulling her to him. "Be prepared for the best snog of your life."
Before Kat could react his lips were on hers in one swift motion and she couldn't think. Shocks went up her spine and she saw stars before she hit Earth again. It just so happened that she hit Sirius in the process.
"Black what in the hell was that?" Kat screamed punching him in the stomach. He didn't even flinch.
"You kissed me back." Sirius said looking at her smugly.
"I did not! You wish I would kiss an ass like you… if you ever even try that again." Kat said poking a finger into his chest which was well above her head.
"You just proved my point Bellsum." Sirius said with a smug face. He knew what he could do to win the bet even if it took all year
"What point asshole?" Kat asked aggravated.
"You cannot be by me and not want to snog me senseless." Sirius said laughing at his own epiphany.
"That is not true Black. You never affect me unless gagging counts."
"Then you won't mind if we add some stipulations to our little bet." Sirius said back in her face once more.
"Absolutely! Bring it on Black because no matter what you do I am still going to win." Kat said getting in his face now.
"Well then from today until graduation day the marauders will be having some female companions."
"Fine!"
"Fine!"
"Fine!"
"See you in a couple minutes Bellsum… our compartment is 206. If you and your girls aren't there in time then we will have to help you find your way. Sirius winked at her before turning around and walking through the barrier, leaving a very pissed Kat in the midst.

"YOU DID WHAT? YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO GET THEM TO LEAVE US THE HELL ALONE NOT GET US JOINED AT THE HIP! HOW COULD YOU LET HIM MINIPULATE YOU LIKE THAT? KAT I SWEAR IF I EVEN SEE HIS FACE I WILL SCREAM!" Lily yelled with her fists banging on the table with every word she said.
"Get ready to scream." Kat said before swallowing hard.
"Excuse me but he is not coming in here." Lily said her voice a heated low tone.
"Well, it's not so much him coming here as we are going there… I said we would do this…" Kat said looking at the floor. She couldn't believe she had made a decision like that when she knew how Lily hated James. Sirius had out done himself when he made this stipulation to their little game, she had to give him that.
"Is that why our luggage is gone?" Paige asked looking up at the storage racks above them.
"They took our luggage?" the other three girls yelled at the same time before looking at each other.
"Oh my god… we have officially started stage one of LIVING HELL!" Lisi screamed stamping her foot on the ground anger seething through the glares she shot at the door.
"We better go find them before they start digging." Lily said in a rushed voice. She did not like the thought of James Potter with his hands all over her knickers, on or off her.
"Oh shit I didn't even think of that." Kat yelled half way out the door. She heard the others following behind her as she counted off compartment numbers. She took in a sharp intake of breath when she had found their compartment.
"Ladies this is it." She said holding her hands out. She could see the outline of the four boys in the seats.
Before Kat could open the door though it swung open to reveal an enlarged compartment with spacious benches and a huge table covered in every food and sweet available to the train. The four boys sat there with smug grins on their faces; Kat's cat Tampa was in Sirius' lap purring and dosing off happily.
"Welcome ladies to your first marauders meeting… make yourself comfortable as you are the new female marauders." James said pointing at the empty spaces on the bench.
The girls could not believe that the boys had taken their luggage, made the compartment to their liking, or invaded their privacy… but the fact that the boys had called them marauders made them say one word that would top them all.
"Wow."

"James we have a prefect meeting in five minutes! Get your ass up!" Lily yelled exasperated. She had been trying to wake James up for the past twenty minutes with no prevail and was worried they would be late.
"Why don't you try something besides screaming Evans because apparently that isn't working." Sirius said trying to fall back asleep on Kats shoulder, who was paying no attention to him because of the book in her hand.
Lily's frown molded into a quick smirk as she played out her idea in her head. "James, baby, I want you so bad… please James I can't take it any more I need you to…"
"Whatever you want Evans! I will take you on the floor if I have to." James said with his eyes on the face of his only love, Lily Evans.
"Get your ass up and out that door Potter we're going to be late because of your tired ass." Lily huffed as she walked out the door with James in toe.
Sirius, who could not sleep because of Lily's yelling, decided it was time to have some fun with Kat. "Can I grab your tits?"
"What?" Kat said not expecting this question in the middle of the compartment. She heard Peter stifle a giggle and Remus sigh hard… They knew what Sirius was up to.
"Well, they look like they would be so fun to play with." Sirius said in a curious voice while he batted his eyelashes up at Kat.
"Would you like for me to give you your own pair?" Kat asked innocently as she put down her book.
"If they are connected to you, my love." He said before nuzzling the side of her neck with his face.
"Black can you keep yourself away from me before I catch an STD?" Kat asked looking out the window at the beautiful scenery.
"Sure if you do something for me?" Sirius asked looking up at her face with a serious expression.
"I'm listening." Kat said turning to look at his face which was a foot above hers.
"Get naked."
"You first." Kat laughed out as she took a sip of her water bottle.
"If you insist." Sirius said before pulling off his shirt in one quick motion, and then his jeans.
"Whoa, Black you better keep those boxers off before they don't have anything to hold." Lisi said leaning against Remus. She and Paige had taken a liking to Remus once they figured out he wasn't like the other marauders he hung out with.
"What Robindale can't bear to see what a real man looks like?" Sirius said leaning toward Lisi and wiggling his eyebrows.
"Real men wear pots on their heads and hide from stoves?" Paige asked with a mock expression of confusion on her face.
"Remus you did not tell them that." Sirius said looking straight into Remus' eyes.
"Well, mate I thought them being marauders now and everything, that they should know more about us." Remus said smiling into his book
"How much longer till we're there?" Peter asked waking up from his nap. "And why is Sirius only in his knickers?"
"He was trying to molest me." Kat said looking at the plump, short boy.
"Oh, nothing new then." Peter said stretching toward the other side of the compartment, away from Kat.
"What do you mean nothing new? It's not like I go around trying to molest people." Sirius said putting his hands on his hips.
"With your girl history I wouldn't doubt it. I mean you have your own broom cupboard to snog girls in… I wouldn't exactly call you virginal." Peter said before yawning and getting out an edition of the quibbler.
"YOU HAVE YOUR OWN BROOM CUPBOARD?" The three girls said in unison before bursting into fits of uncontrollable laughter.
"What in the hell is so funny about that?" Sirius said aggravated.
"You're practically a man whore." Paige said wiping the tears from her eyes.
"I AM NOT A MAN WHORE!!" Sirius yelled at the three girls who started laughing harder at his outburst.
"Whoa, mate no one said you were." James said coming in through the compartment door with his hands in the air.
"Were you giving them a strip tease or something?" Lily asked looking at the almost naked Sirius.
"No, Bellsum was just showing me what she does on Friday nights." Sirius winked at Kat who gave him a dirty look.
"Oh, so she told you guys what we do?" Lily asked innocently trying to hold in her laughter.
"WHAT?" James and Sirius yelled simultaneously.
"Lily can put down like no other… you would probably wince at the shit she's done to me." Kat said now in a fit of full blown giggles.
"Anyway boys, it's time to go… we're at Hogwarts!" Lily chirped happily as she and the other three girls took their luggage and headed towards the carriages, not knowing that this is where it all would start. And unfortunately end.
