Chapter 4, Planning

The moon shone high in the sky. Remus looked at his hands in misery.

"Full moon soon, eh Moony?" James said, nodding his head sympathetically. It was four days to go until the full moon, and Remus was starting to get very fidgety.

Remus nodded his head and started to bite his fingernails; looking down at the Herbology homework they'd been set. It would normally be a simple case of writing in what they'd done that day, but he couldn't remember what they'd done.

"Prongs? What did we do today?"

James shrugged and turned to look at Lily over with her friends. Her eyes captivated him. They were an impossible shade of green: somewhere between emerald and forest green. A colour of beauty, and he was awestruck. He seemed to be looking at Lily a lot more these days.

Remus smiled knowingly. "Ask her out then!"

James shook his head. "I don't fancy her…I don't think…"

Lily smiled at Bethany. "Come on, Beth, ask Siri out!"

The raven-haired girl shook her head. "He's my best friend. I couldn't go out with him. That's like suicide."

Lily rolled her eyes and turned to look at Tawny, who was smiling to herself.

She waved her hands in front of Tawny's face and the girl completely ignored her. Lily decided to have some fun.

"So, he's cute, isn't he?"

"Yeah."

"I mean, he must have a strong body."

"Yeah…"

Beth grinned and joined in. "Sirius is just the sexiest girl to even walk the planet, right?"

"Yeah…"

Lily and Beth started cracking up quietly about the mention of Sirius as a girl and being even remotely attractive that way. Beth continued.

"I mean, she has lovely hair…sprouting from under her arms, don't you find that fetching?"

"Yeah…"

"Hey, I think James is coming over! Doesn't James have gorgeous eyes?"

"Yeah…"

"I mean, don't you just want to shag him?"

"Yeah…"

By this point the two girls were almost rolling around, but they kept it going.

"And isn't Snape just the most dreamy devil ever?"

"You know, I think Amos has a twelve pack."

"Malfoy fancied you before he left. Do you wish he'd stayed so you could go out with him?"

"You are so cute, you know that Tawn? I sooo fancy you. Will you go out with me?" Lily laughed as Beth told their love struck friend that.

All of these were replied with a `yeah…' until,

"You know, I think Remus is going up to the girls' dorm."

"WHAT?" Tawny yelled, snapping out of her daze.

The two girls, at her stricken face, just burst out laughing non-stop for the next ten minutes. Tawny's expression was completely worth having the whole common room stare at them in shock.

James and Lily sat down in the Heads' Room later on that day. They'd been asked to design something fun for all years at Christmas. At the moment they were verging on a ball (A/N: yeah yeah, clichéd…) or a dance, but they weren't sure.

Lily started scribbling on a piece of paper, whilst trying to think of a suitable password for the room. They still hadn't sorted one out.

Just then, James crumpled up a piece of paper and chucked it over his shoulder at Lily, yelling, "Heads up!"

Lily froze, and the paper hit her on the head. James chuckled. "Oops! Told you to watch out, didn't I!"

"That's it!" Lily breathed.

"What?"

"The password for the Heads' Rooms! `Heads Up'! Because we're the Heads."

He nodded. "Great idea, Lils. Though of course I…"

He broke off as Lily cuffed the back of his head.

Snape watched as the four animals darted around the trees outside. He knew their secret, since Sirius had tried to get him killed and nearly got them all expelled. He even knew about the Animagi. But most of all, he knew about Moony.

"Little werewolf rat…" he muttered. He was going to get Remus, and get him good. He deserved it, after all, he was a monster. He deserved shooting.

But of course, he couldn't kill Remus. Tact, my friend, tact, he thought. No, of course he wouldn't kill Remus.

But he could toy with their hearts a little. And who better to hurt the Marauders than a little, powerfully scented flower.

That generally went by the name Lily.

So, what did you think? Probably not as good as usual…but hey, I tried. It was very hard. I still have homework to do, and it's half eleven.

Questions: TODs please! And should I do a ball, a dance (like a disco or something) or something else? You decide!

Luv ya all,

Cazzy
