maraudermagic:longlivethemarauders:James shoved open the heavy wooden door to the Potions classroom. ‘Potter,’ Slughorn said reprovingly, ‘you’re late.’ Lily watched him from her seat. In his hand was his Potions essay. She smiled to herself. It was all in one piece, and there was not a dog in sight. It was then she realised that she did not get anything for winning the bet.‘Sorry, Professor,’ James panted, ‘I slept in.’ He winked at Lily, and then at Remus who was lighting a fire under his cauldron.‘Where’s Black?’‘Oh, he slept in too,’ James said, without missing a beat, ‘he’ll be along any minute.’Slughorn nodded, ‘Well sit down then.’James nodded.‘James!’ Remus suddenly shouted. ‘Look out!’James spun, and let out a strangled yell as a huge, black dog came tearing down the dungeon corridor and leapt at him. Lily’s heart was in her throat and she was reaching for her wand. Until she remembered the wager. Then, she laughed.The dog snapped at James, who tried to fend it off with his hands. Slughorn stood, as if paralysed, watching the scene before him. Lily wasn’t entirely sure when it happened, but the dog had got hold off James’ essay, and shredded it.‘James, keep your head down!’ Remus shouted, pulling out his wand. He was the only one in the class that was not watching on in horror, or Lily’s case, amusement. Remus shot a jinx out of his wand, which hit to dogs tail.The canine let out a yelp and then, forgetting James, turned to Remus. It let out a steady growl, of what sounded like a stream of curses, and finally, tore out of the classroom, knocking over cauldrons as it went. Panting, James got to his feet, and pushed his glasses back onto his nose.‘Potter, are you all right?’ Slughorn asked weakly. He looked as if he were going into shock. James nodded, and opened his mouth to speak but -‘WHAT THE HELL?’ came a loud shout from the corridor. Sirius came running in, wand aloft, red in the face and out of breath. ‘There’s a dog out there! It just shredded my bag and my essay.’ Sirius held up the evidence.Slughorn mopped his shiny forehead. ‘Potter, Black, due to … ah…unusual circumstances, you may have until Friday to hand up your essays.’‘You too?’ Sirius asked James who grimaced.‘Boys, please sit down, and, Potter?’‘Yes, Professor?’‘Close the door will you?’James sat down in the vacant seat next to Lily. He waited until Slughorn had turned away before asking, ‘What time do you want to meet in the Great Hall?’‘I don’t even want to know how you managed that,’ she said through laughter, ‘but it was brilliant. Shall we say… ten?’ James nodded eagerly. ‘I probably won’t see you much before then,’ Lily said with a mischievous smile.‘Why not?’ James asked, looking upset and confused.‘Well, you’ll be working on your essay…’‘You don’t give us enough credit, Lils,’ Sirius said leaning over, ‘We duplicated them before class. We both have a copy of our essay tucked safely away in our dormitory.’‘That’s… clever of you!’ Lily said, pretending to be shocked. She started to say something else, but her words were lost in other voices; Sirius was hissing insults at Remus, who was having a very hard time keeping a straight face.‘Well I’m sorry,’ said Remus, with a wolfy grin, ‘But I had to make it convincing didn’t I?’Sirius growled, and rubbed his backside. Lily didn’t understand the exchange, but James clearly did, and was crying with laughter.‘Shut it, Prongs,’ the long haired marauder said with an evil glint in his grey eyes, ‘or I’ll be having venison for dinner one night soon…’James gulped, looking rather pale. He cast a furtive look at Lily, who was watching questioningly. ‘I’m… er… vegetarian,’ he muttered and then didn’t speak to her for the rest of the lesson.OH GOD EVERYONE JUST STOP AND READ THIS.As far as I’m concerned, THIS TOTALLY HAPPENED. -- source link
