"I never thought that I would say this, but kids... You should follow Mr. Potter example."

It was a rainy day of September, specifically the first day of classes. The clouds were moving slowly across the sky like they were on a race with eachother. The sun was hidden behind them and only some of his sunshines were managing to find a gap between the clouds and let their light spread on the earth. If it wasn't for the lights across Hogwarts' corridors the students would not see.
"This is as serious as my name! We used to do everything together. We shouldn't separate now!" Sirius said to his friends as they were heading to McGonagall's office. They were supposed to have already told her which classes they were about to pick but since they could not agree on one they delayed it as much as they could.
"Why don't we all go to Care of Magical Creatures? It won't be so difficult." Peter suggested to the group. "We already have some basic knowledge of them and knowing that we'll be examined on them we have a great chance to get a good grade."
"Well that's logical but I was thinking of Muggle studies. I already know many things. Half-blood you see..." Remus said.
"I just hope that you don't expect me to give up the chance to know how to tell the future! Divination is calling me! Don't you hear it?" Electra protested to her friends.
"I suggest we agree on one subject that all of us want to do and then we can choose whatever we want." James said in a calm tone
"Wow, that's the wiser thing you have ever said during the past two years!" Remus said to his friend and James looked at the ceiling and laughed
"I'm pretty sure you can't count Remus. Actually I have said lots of wise things! For example: These violent delights have violent ends..."
The Marauders turned to look at him surprised widening their eyes in the sound of his words. "I'm pretty sure that's Shakespeare, deer."
"No Remus, that was me last year in detention while we were cleaning the house cups after we had been caught lighting up fireworks during charms."
They laughed for a while and continued their walking through the corridors of the castle heading to the office. And if it wasn't for that stupid drunk stairs, as they liked to call them since they didn't know what they were doing, they would already have gotten there. They knocked the door and entered in coming across a cat sitting on top of the desk with her eyes locked on them.
"Good morning professor!" Sirius said and winked at the cat who leaned her head to the right still glaring at them with frozen eyes.
"Mr. Black I hope that you don't try to seduce my cat." McGonagall's voice sounded behind them and all five of them turned to looks at her. She tried to hide her smile of success and moved towards her desk letting the four kids laugh at their friend's actions.
Sirius' cheeks reddened and smiled at the professor "You know you are my favourite professor, don't you?" He said trying to get on well with her and smirked in an attempt to capture her attention.
"Mr. Black what happened to the cat won't happen with me so please behave yourself!" She said looking straight to him with a really serious face. "Now children, which classes have you picked?" She asked them hopefully they wouldn't be together on each class because she knew for sure that all of them together in the same room couldn't work out.
"Well all of us we'll take Care of Magical Creatures. And I will have Muggle studies along with Peter" Remus began and McGonagall started writing down their names to the correct lists.
