James' POV
I hate Snivellus so much. Well, I don't hate him just becuase he's a sick, slimy git with one real friend. It's the friend who's the real reason for the hate. Guess who is Snivelly's one real friend. Lily Evans. Yes, Evans. My Evans. The girl I like. But she also hates me. But anyway, onto Snivellus. He and his 'friends' in Slytherin cornered an Opale twin, and no-one knows what they did to her, but they got three weeks of detention from Professor McGonnagol. Now, it's time for payback.
I'm definitely not 'attacking' Snivelly because of his very close and suspicious friendshp with the wonderful, pretty and smart Lily Evans, it's not like I'm jealous of the slimy git or anything. I'm not, it's just that they seem really close... Okay, I am jealous, but what those evil Slytherins did to the Opale twin was definitely worse than what we are going to do to them. Afterall, what damage could a couple tubs of grease do to them, especially as they are all greasy already, and Sirius' cousin, Bellatrix couldn't get more insane anyway.
First of all, I'm going to levitate Snivy in the Courtyard, then Remus and Peter will get the tub of grease, Sirius will immobilize him and he'll fall into the grease. Then, we'll get the other evil Slytherins, like Malfoy, Lestrange, Crabbe, Goyle, Bellatrix and those guys, and charm the buckets of grease follow them around all day, tipping grease over them every so often.
"Jamesie, stop thinking about Evans," That's not fair, I don't think about her all the time. Alrigt, I do, but I wasn't this time. "We need to do our homework." Sirius winked mischieviously, before dragging Remus and Peter away from the food, Remus from the chocolate, and Peter from everything else. I finished my toast and ran after them out of the Hall.
"Ready for our sweet revenge?" I asked.
"Yep, and always will be." Replied Sirius. He was preparing the sign that we will attatch to Snivelly, saying 'Snivellus'.
"Guys, are you sure we should be doing this, I mean they already got detention and stuff..." Said Remus.
"Of course we should be doing this, we need to teach them a lesson. You're not getting cold feet now, are you, Remmy?" Sirius said.
"Why would Remus' feet be cold, Sirius? He's got really fluffy and warm socks and-" Peter Sirius cut off from his stupid rambling about Remus' socks.
"You haven't been feeling Remmy's socks, have you?" Snickered Sirius.
"N-no"
"Peter, having cold feet means regretting your decision." I explained.
"It's an idiom." Remus added.
"What's an id-" Asked Sirius and Peter together.
"Never mind." Remus quickly said, before changing the sign to say 'Smelly Snivelly'.
"So, have you got cold feet, Remus?" Sirius questioned.
"No, why would I still be here if I did?" Remus snapped back.
"Geez, just asking." Said Sirius. "Is it your time of the month or something?" He added quieter. Me and Peter chortled.
"Shut up Sirius."
"Come on Jamesie Boy, we'd better hide before Snivellus and Co come along and spoil our prank." Called Sirius.
"Coming, Siri-Bear." I called back.
The lonely, hook nosed git, also known as Snivellus Snape was aproaching, and I jumped out, shouting the incantaton.
"Wingardium Leviosa!"
He flew a few meters up, and Remus moved the bucket filled to the brim with grease under Snivellus and Sirius said,
"Petrificus Totalus." With that, Snivellus fell into the grease, stiff as a board and I saw Remus mutter something and the sign attatched itself onto him. Snivelly looked so funny that I just wanted to stand there and laugh, but we had to get a move on and do the next step,
We all said the spells and chuckled as we heard Bellatrix's high-pitched, deranged scream. It worked!
We all high fived, and ran to the Gryffindor Common Room before the teachers could catch us and give us a thousand detentions.
Lily's POV
After breakfast, I walked to the Courtyard, hoping to meet Sev there, to catch up, becuase we hadn't talked for a few dyas, and I wanted to salvage the friendship that we had for a few years. I wanted to tell him that I forgive him for being friends with those Slytherins, but I never got the chance.
I emerged into the Courtyard, laughing at something that Marlene had said at breakfast, when I saw Sev in a tub of grease, with a sign saying something about Snivellus on it, and I didn't need his shout of 'it was Potter' to know who did it. There was only one group of people who called him that name.
I stormed up to Gryffindor Tower, and shouted the password at the Fat Lady ('glibbernitfit') and pushed myself into the Common Room, to find the Marauders themselves, falling about laughing, probaly at Severus. well, he did look quite funny, but he's my friend.
"POTTER!!!!! BLACK!!!!! REMUS!!!! PETER!!!" I screamed at them, and Black muttered,
"Oh, sh*t."
"You had no reason to do that to poor Sev! He did nothing to you to deserve that!" I exclaimed, but I had to bite back the laugh from the memory of Sev sitting in that tub.
"Of course we did! Did you not hear what him and the other Slytherins did to Opale?!" Shouted back Black.
"I did hear, but that is not a good eough reason to do that to him!"
"I told you so." Mumbled Remus. I knew he was the sensiblest (is that a word? I'm editing this and then I realised that I don't think it's a word but I'm keeping it) of them all, but I was still mad at him.
"Don't think you can get away with it, Remus Lupin! I can recognise your handwriting, you know!" I shouted. Peter started to walk away slowly, but I wasn't going to shout at the three of them and not him.
"Peter! I am not finished with you!"
"Wow, she sounds more like Minnie everyday." Muttered Black. Yes, that's what they call Professor McGonnagol. Minnie. Very inventive.
"I heard that, Sirius Black!"
"Now, if you've finished, Evans, I need to go to my detention with the real Minnie." Said Potter, and walked away, with me staring after him, open mouthed, becuase I know for a fact that his detention is in two hours.
"UUUURGH!!!!!" I exclaimed. "I hope you are happy, you have ruined a perfectly good Saturday!" With that, I stormed to my dorm to read a book to calm me down.
A/N: okay, all of you probably hate me for not updating this is absolute ages, but I haven't had much time to write anymore, and I haven't been feeling the story, but now I just randomly opened this story and saw that I have 50 vote star thingys and I was like OMG! So I have decided to start writing this again, editing it, but don't rely on me to be updating every week or something. Also, I'm working on a harry potter twin story, I'm on the first chapter, and I want to finish writing the whole thing before I post it, so it's the best it can be. That might not come in a long while so just enjoy this story for the time being. I'm sorry this note was so long but I haven't written aby of the story for a few months I think.
