Everything went smoothly, even the classes they were teaching. Until they ran out of things they could teach after two months.
"We don't have anything else, we've drained everyone dry." Lily told them on a Wednesday night after she and Remus had Prefect rounds, they were the only ones awake, and Loralei was falling asleep on Sirius' shoulder.
"What about the Auror's daughter?" Sirius asked.
"Nope, that was two weeks ago." Loralei whispered softly. Even when she was falling asleep she had a better memory than most of them.
"So what are we going to do now?" James asked.
Lily bit her lip. "Loralei, you are talking to Fabian again..."
"No." Sirius said, quickly.
"Sirius..." Loralei groaned, lifting her head off his shoulder. "He could help."
"He's an Auror, he knows more than anyone else. It's his job." Remus agreed.
"We'll need to get it approved by Dumbledore." James mentioned.
"Fine, but we don't know if he'll do it." Sirius said.
"He will, he wants the good side to win." Lily told him. "Can you owl him, Lore?"
Loralei nodded. "In the morning."
"Why don't you go to bed?" Lily asked. "You've been almost asleep for an hour."
"It takes energy to go upstairs." Loralei told her.
"Lazy."
"You know it."
Lai,
I'd be happy to come help you with this. Dumbledore said it was all right, right? I have next Friday afternoon off if you want it to meet me at the gates to let me in. I'm happy you decided to come up with this; especially with everything going on outside Hogwarts. You need to learn to protect yourselves, and if I knew half of what I want to show you before I joined I would have been a lot better off in Auror training.
I hope you're doing well,
Fab
Loralei wrote back that she'd meet him there at Three o'clock, thanked him. She passed the letter around to the Marauders and Lily at breakfast.
"Yes, we have a professional." James said. "Lore, do you think he could help me pad my resumé so I can get in easily?"
"I don't know, get good grades and we'll see." She replied, taking a bite of toast.
"Aw," he pouted. "I'm great at Transfiguration."
"I know that, Prongs." Loralei teased, while Lily looked confused. She didn't know about that, more illegal, part of their activities.
"So when are you meeting Prewett?" James asked.
"At three on Friday." Loralei told him. "It should be fun. He's a good teacher."
"And how many things did he teach you?" Peter asked. The question could have been innocent, but from his expression it was anything but innocent.
Loralei's mouth fell open in shock, it took her a second to get her sass back.
"Well, I guess you wouldn't know, being a virgin and all. A terminal virgin from what I can tell too, since you don't kno how to talk to a girl without giving them the creeps."
"I'm staying out of this." James said.
"Agreed."
"I'm siding with her." Sirius said.
"Me too." Lily agreed.
"Now don't be an ass, and maybe you'll get some before you die." Loralei told him.
He looked like he had just been slapped, though he probably would have preferred it. No one likes hearing the truth about them.
"What about bro's before hoes?" Peter asked.
"Well my girlfriend isn't a hoe, so your argument is invalid." He told him.
"You guys hated her last summer." Peter said.
"I didn't." Remus shrugged.
"I didn't hate her, I hated the situation." Sirius told him.
"I just hated the shit going down." James told him. "They weren't supposed to break up that badly when I was kinda the one that caused it."
No one responded to James. Lily, Loralei, and Sirius only knew the truth about it, and even though James did seem a bit guilty about it, none of them said a word about it not being the truth.
"Either way," Loralei stood up. "I'm off to Divination." She kissed Sirius' cheek as she stood up. "See you all at Potions."
"See you."
Please Review!
Sorry I didn't update last week! I'm kind of having a bit of trouble getting my thoughts down to write this chapter. It was supposed to be longer, but since I'm leaving my house (and as well as my computer and wifi) in about twenty minutes, I probably wouldn't remember to write more let alone update.
In the next chapter Fabian makes another appearance!
