Amour

Dix-Huit

"JAMES IL Y A QUATRE PERSONNES ICI QUI DOIVENT UTILISER LA SALLE DE BAIN!" Sirius shouted, banging on the bathroom door. James had been in there for almost forty minutes, and it was getting ridiculous. "JAMES THERE ARE FOUR PEOPLE HERE WHO NEED TO USE THE BATHROOM!"

"Well, three but-" Peter started, silenced by a fierce glare from Sirius. 

"I actually got up before James, so I'm good." Remus said, still stuffing things into a day bag. 

Yes, today was the day of the task. Everyone leaving was to report to Dumbledore's office by 10am sharp, where they would be apparating into the centre of Elgin, and sent on their way. 

"WHAT DO YOU WANT!?" James yelled from behind the safety of a closed door. 

"A PISS!" Peter shouted back, making Sirius grimace. 

"comme un homme des cavernes au métabolisme lent" He observed, looking at Peter."Like a caveman with slow metabolism" 

"Huh?" Peter grunted, turning around. 

Remus started laughing, obviously having heard Sirius' little observation. Peter was very neanderthal-like. 

"Oh fuck off" He grumbled. 

James opened the door a little while later, wearing his blue jeans and red plaid shirt like a proud mother at the annual charity bake sale. 

"I look fit as fuck" He grinned, looking in the mirror, "Don't you think?" 

"If you were a food, you would be salad." Remus rolled his eyes, casting an undetectable extension charm on the duffel. 

"All right!" 

Sirius had walked into the bathroom by now, effectively taking out Peter's legs before he got there. It looked the same as ever, white tiles, silver taps, huge spi-

"AHHHH!" Sirius screamed, high pitched and ear piercing, running out of the room. 

"AHHHH!" James responded, oblivious to the issue. 

"WHAT'S WRONG?" Remus shouted over James' over dramatics. 

"il y a une grosse raison avec des jambes là-dedans!" Sirius cried, jumping on top of his bed. "There is a fat raison with legs in there!" 

  "A spider?" Remus sighed. They were going to be late. 

"WHAT THE FUCK, THERE'S A SPIDER!?" Peter piped up, still lying on the ground in defeat. 

"I SEE IT, I SEE IT!" James leapt onto his desk chair, wand aloft in the air. 

"JAMES POTTER DON'T YOU DARE!" Remus ran over to him, he was too late though. 

"STUPEFY STUPEFY STUPEFY STUPEFY STUPEFY!" James shot his wand around blindly, spider scampering over the floor boards in panic. He managed to hit everything that wasn't the little creature; Peter's bed, Remus' desk and half of the carpeting. 

"EXPELLIARMUS!" Remus  took James' wand, leaving the room in a silence. 

"Where did it-" He started, stopping dead when he came to face Peter.

It was on his head. 

"Pete" Remus started, "You need to stay calm for me-"

That idea was out the window when Sirius also turned, deciding it would be best to just send the duffel bag straight at Peter's head. 

"OW YOU WANKER!" Peter cried, spiders limp body on the ground next to him. 

"J'AI COMPRIS!" Sirius jumped back onto the ground. "I GOT IT!"
