Moments with the Marauders

Vanish- Disappear suddenly and completely.

First, James vanished.

Second, Lily started to get a teensy bit… Hysterical.

Third, they snogged against a wall.

Lily Evans had been having a fairly… odd day. And she couldn't figure out what was wrong. There were classes, as usual. Alice Prewett was found snogging Frank Longbottom in a broom closet, as usual. The Marauders were disrupting class, as usual. James Potter was asking Lily out, as- Wait. That was it! James hadn't asked Lily out yet! Actually, James hadn't even come to class…

"Black!"

Sirius Black turned around, gesturing to himself as if he was saying, 'Who, me?'

"Yes, you. Where's Potter?"

A wide grin stretched across Sirius' face. "Why do you want to know?"

Lily flushed, and fiddled with her skirt. "Head business."

"Sure, sweetheart. Whatever you say." said Sirius smugly.

"Just tell me where he is." Lily demanded, resisting the urge to wipe that smirk off of his face.

"I dunno. He's just vanished into thin air."

Lily scowled at him, and walked away, even more worried than before.

A couple of hours later, Lily was found in her dormitory, pacing.

"Alice, I have no idea where he is! I'm worried!"

"Why are you worried? I thought that you hated his guts." Alice said.

"Because, he's my partner-"

"In what way?"

Lily glared. "And we have some Head stuff to do, and-"

"And you want to push him up against a wall and snog him senseless?" Alice suggested.

"Yes! Wait- no! Alice!"

"Hey, you're the one who agreed."

Lily sighed, but grinned anyway. "He hasn't asked me out yet. He always asks me out. Remember last year?" Last year, James had snuck out of the Hospital Wing just to ask her out. His nose was red and running, but he still said "Go out with me, Evans?" with his usual bravado.

"I'm going to look for him." She decided, and left the room to start searching. She started at the dormitories, and even went to the library, where James Potter wouldn't be caught dead. But he wasn't anywhere.

So, she waited in her usual spot for James so that they could go patrolling, just to see if he'd come. And he did.

He just appeared out of thin air, stuffing something into his satchel, with that stupid, adorable grin of his.

"James Potter! Where were you all day?" Lily demanded.

"Around and about." James said airily. And with that, they started to walk the halls, busting students for snogging in broom closets and being out after hours, all in silence.

"Why haven't you asked me out yet?" Lily finally broke the suffocating silence.

"Because…"

"You stupid prat." And with that, Lily pushed James against the wall, and started snogging him.

A few seconds later, they pulled apart, breathless.

"By the way, Evans, wanna go out with me?"

A grin broke out across Lily's face, and she kissed him again.

"I'll take that as a yes."

"Ha! I told you that making Prongs vanish would make Evans realise her love for him!" Sirius crowed.

Remus Lupin rolled his eyes. "No you didn't. I came up with the plan."

"Shut up Moony."

Well, hope you liked this! I admit, I was having trouble with finding a good 'V' word I could write for, but then I was reading these Infernal Devices alphabet drabbles, and 'V' was for Vanish, and I just got this idea, and there you have it.

Brilliant news! My laptop is fixed! But they had to delete all of my pictures that I'd saved from Deviant Art, and they did something to my internet, so now I cannot remember the fics I was reading because they were in my favourites bar and it all got deleted and... Right, anyway.

Thank you all so much for the reviews! You're all absolutely amazing!

R&R!

Lots of love,
