I Hate Everything about You
Chapter fifteen: Immature
"Shhh! Shut the bloody hell up."
"Sirius you're the one making the all the noise," Lily tried desperately to stretch her burning legs, but her and Sirius were crouched low behind a wall.
Her socks were soaked through and her hands numb, but it would all be worth it, she grinned mischievously.
"Okay on the count of three, they are coming," Sirius whispered; she could see excitement sparkling behind his onyx colored eyes.
"One…" Their backs hunched over, as their eyes peaked over the low stone wall.
"Two…" their arms reached back, fingers dipped in cold.
"Three…" release.
Snowballs flew through the air, and more seemed to infinitely follow, landing all over three students who were innocently out walking in the freshly fallen snow.
Sirius and Lily stood up, doubled over laughing at the three soaked through Slytherins.
"That was the stupidest prank you've ever pulled Evans!" Lucius shouted looking down at his ruined clothes with disgust.
"That's what you think," Sirius replied twirling his wand between his lithe fingers.
"What do you mean?" Rodolphus Lestrange asked panicking slightly, he had been the butt of one too many of the Marauders jokes.
Lily covered her eyes with a grin before saying through her laughter, "Well the spell on the snowballs makes clothing disappear, gone forever."
Thomas Nott's eyes widened and all three looked as their clothes begin to slowly fade away. They all covered their, erm, parts before looking around the grounds for anyone else watching.
Suddenly Remus and Peter popped out from behind a tree, and the signature sound of a camera went off along with the bright flash of light and a poof.
"You'll pay for this!" Lucius yelled out as all three stumbled through the slick snow back into the castle.
The Marauders all smiled and hi-fived as Lily put her hand down from in front of her face, she didn't want to see any of the Slytherins in all their glory.
"Got the prints?" she asked Remus, who was waving his wand in a complicated manner before three-hundred moving pictures depicted the three Slytherins shaking in the snow.
"That's amazing, let's go put them all over the school, I'm freezing!" Peter said his blue eyes darting around the powder white grounds.
"Okay, I hope some people saw them as they ran through the halls," Remus said laughing.
"Oh, don't worry it will be all over the school by dinner tonight," Sirius replied confidently.
"Hey, let's take a picture while we have the camera out," Lily suggested with excitement.
Remus waved his wand and the camera floated in midair, timer set. The three guys lined up and picked Lily up in their arms so she lay across the three of them. Just as the camera went off they threw her in the air and caught her again all four laughing loudly.
Remus printed out a copy of the photo for each of them, and they all watched as in the picture they smiled before throwing Lily in the air and catching her easily.
Perfection.
As the four of them walked into the great hall for dinner together, every table except the Slytherins burst into rapturous applause. They all four bowed arrogantly before seating themselves at the Gryffindor table whose cheers were the loudest. Even some of the teachers had small half smiles on their faces.
The Marauders almost never got in trouble because they always planned their pranks so perfectly that they never could get any evidence pinned on them. Everyone knew it was them, but it couldn't be proved.
The only person not applauding was James.
"What's with the disapproving stare Jamesie-poo?" Sirius said with a grin, putting an arm around Hestia.
"Don't call me that," His voice was sharp.
"Come on James, it was just a bit of fun…plus no one likes those idiot Slytherins anyway," Lily said, looking at Remus desperately. He only shrugged.
"James, really why are you so mad?" Remus asked confusion sincere in his eyes.
"It's just all so immature," he grumbled.
"Immature is a word people use who don't know how do have fun," Sirius countered. People around the table listening with interest chuckled, but James only glowered more.
"Come on James, It's the first snow of the year," Lily said, emerald eyes wide.
"Whatever," James stood up and began to walk out.
"PMS much mate?" Sirius said to James' back.
And while the teachers weren't looking James flipped him the bird, the whole great hall was speechless as they watched James Potter stalk out of the great hall.
"What has buried its self up his-" Sirius started but Lily cut him off.
"Sirius sometimes your mouth needs to be sewn shut," She stood up and also walked out. Her friends were left wide eyed behind her.
