"Move. I'm head boy."
"What? I was here first!" A first year said.
"And I'm head boy. If you don't move I'll give you detention."
"I'm pretty sure that's not allowed."
"So you want detention then?"
The first year scrambled up his parchment moving himself from the sofa.
"Good decision." James grinned as he took a seat next to Opal.
"I'm pretty sure you're not actually allowed to give out detention like that, James." She tutted.
"Shush Wings, unless you want points taken from your house." James said, opening his Quidditch Weekly magazine.
"Are you allowed to do that?" Peter asked.
"Definitely not," Remus shook his head.
"Piss off Moony, you're just pissed that I'm headboy and you're not."
"I think I'd rather die than attend boring meetings about the school, thanks." Remus said.
"Oh Moons is jealous." Sirius glimmered, squeezing his cheeks.
"Ooh, careful, he's about to turn two weeks early."
"Blaze! Don't say that, I can see his claws growing." Peter laughed along.
"You're so immature," he rolled his eyes at the two.
"Potter," Lily said, walking into the common room.
"Evans, my love." he said, smugly.
Her cheeks tinged red, but she kept a serious face. "We have that meeting with Dumbledore."
"Ahh, yes our meeting," James said, standing up and waving at the Marauders. "I bid you farewell, come along Lils- OW!" his arm brushed against hers. "Did you feel that?"
"Feel what?"
"A spark, we're meant to be together-"
"Potter, that was an electric shock, and we're already dating." Lily said, rolling her eyes. "Hurry up, Dumbledore's waiting."
"So long suckers!" James said, leaving the common room.
The first year gawped at the door then back at the Marauders.
"Did he really make me get up for no reason?"
Sirius grinned. "Sorry bud, it's my seat now." he sat beside Opal, resting his head on her shoulder. "What are you reading?"
"A biography of Owle Bullock, he's the one who wrote the book in my parents' study, with the missing pages, I've still not been able to find a copy of it."
"Have you not checked the restricted section yet?"
"Not yet... Wanna sneak out later and check?"
"It's a date."
"You know most people would go to a restaurant as a date... not go to a forbidden library." Peter said.
"How's your girlfriend, Wormy?"
"Fuck you."

Curfew had started a few moments before Opal and Sirius had left the common room. Sirius had remembered the map but not the invisibility cloak.
"Okay, Filch is down in... a broomstick cupboard with Mrs Norris... weird man that guy, it seems like our path is clear." He said, folding the paper.
Opal linked his arm. "Come on then."
