"At least now I can say that in a year I got rejected more times than the times Sirius hooked up. Consider this a defeat Black."

Last Day at Hogwarts

The five marauders were sitting on the couch in front of the fireplace. It was their last night there, for this year. Dumbledore had given his speech, mentioning every prank that had happened with such detail like he had written all of them down. Remus was sitting on the one side of the couch with his back resting on the arm of it and his long legs on the couch and his arms wrapped around his knees. Peter had his back against the sofa's his legs were on the table. He had his eyes closed enjoying his friends' company. Sirius was sitting on the sofa's back and was tapping his foot on the sofa in the beat of the song James was playing on his guitar. Electra had rested her head on James' shoulder and was inaudibly singing the lyrics of the song while staring outside the common room's window. James was playing his guitar smiling really proud of himself that he had learned to play the song. He took a deep breath after finishing the song and turned to face his friends with a huge grin on his face.

"I've found myself variour times wondering why am i still hanging out with you. But this is definitely the reason i am." Remus said and stood on his knees and ran his hand through James' hair who started laughing at the comment.

"It's a shame you know that school is over. If we had more time you could play it to Lily." Peter said giving a sympathetic smile at his curly haired friend who nodded trying to believe that too.

"You're forgetting something our dearest Warmtail. Evans doesn't even want to see him in front of her." Sirius said and shook his head trying to get a strand of hair out of his eye sight.   

"Sirius!" Electra widened her eyes at the hearing of his words and the boy just grinned at her jokingly. James didn't seem to mind and he found the interaction between these two funny.

"Okay, lady and gentlemen, any song you want me to play?" The five teens returned to their positions and stood in silence trying to think of a song. Seeing the Marauders sitting silently just enjoying eachother's company was a rare sight. A door then opened and interrupted the relaxing silence of the common room.

"Evans! Evans!" James shouted as soon as his beloved redhead girl exited her dormitory walking towards  them and jumped of the couch causing Electra who was still leaning on him to lose her ballance and give him a deadly glance.

Lily didn't turn to face the group of friends sharing the couch and moved towards the window. "El, what time are you leaving tomorrow?" She addressed her friend without taking her eyes off the window.

"Second train. We're planning spending the morning in the black lake." Electra replied and exchanged a look with Remus. Both of them knew that something was going on.

James stepped closer to the girl and raised his hand to touch her shoulder but he was caught off. "Potter don't you dare lay a hand on me!" She said quickly turned around slapping him with her hair. Of course not unintentionally. "So I guess I'll have to say goodbye to you now..."

Electra stood up from the couch and walked up to Lily after scanning James' face to see if he was okay by her behaviour. She caressed her friend's hair and smiled at her. "I'm coming with you. Let's have a girls' night! I hope Mary and Alice are not asleep already."

"Am I invited? Truth or dare is never funny without a boy." Sirius said smirking making Electra's heart starting beating a little bit faster than usual.

"If Mary says anything about any other guy tell me without second thought!" Remus said messing around.

Lily smiled at him and Electra walked up to Sirius with a sudden eruption of confidence. "Why is so?" She asked looking straight into his eyes.
