Jessie Fitzgerald flipped the page in her copy of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. She was sitting in a chair at a desk in the corner of the common room. Remus Lupin was sitting next to her, thoroughly immersed in Hogwarts: A History. Lily Evans was sitting in an armchair nearby, reading a Muggle novel. James Potter, in an attempt to be as near to her as possible, sat in the couch next to the chair, in front of the fireplace. He had Quidditch Through The Ages open, and was pretending to read it, while sneaking glances at Lily. Juliet Whitman was actually reading her copy of Quidditch Through the Ages.
Last but not least, Sirius Black was pacing in front of the fireplace.
It was Christmas Holidays, and the six of them were the only Gryffindors to stay behind. Lily because her parents were visiting relatives in France, Remus because his 'furry little problem' was near to Christmas this month, Jessie because she wanted to be near Remus, James because he wanted to be near Lily, Sirius because his family hated him, and Juliet because she felt like it.
The only sound was the crackling of the fire, and the muffled sound of Sirius pacing on the carpet. Remus had long since stopped trying to convince him to stop.
Sirius suddenly stopped and yelled, "I'm bored!"
Jessie and Remus fell off of their chairs, Jessie landing on Remus. Lily dropped her book, James jumped, and Juliet burst out laughing at the rest of them.
"What's so funny, Julie?" Sirius asked. "I'm hurt."
"Not you!" she said. "Them!" she pointed to Remus, Jessie, Lily, and James.
Sirius grinned.
"Why are you so bored, Padfoot?" James asked.
"Because there's nothing to do!"
Remus sighed. "Stop behaving like a five-year-old."
Sirius gave an evil grin. "If I was five, could I do this?"
And then he kissed Julie on the lips. "Ew! Gross! Sirius germs!"
"Leave the lady alone, Padfoot," James sighed.
"But I'm bored! Let's play truth-or-dare!"
"What?" James asked, thoroughly confused.
Lily sighed. "It's a Muggle game. You spin a bottle and ask whoever it lands on 'truth or dare' and they answer. If they pick dare, you dare them to do something. If they pick truth, they have to answer one question truthfully. What I don't get is how Sirius knows about it."
Sirius grinned guiltily. "I read about it in a Muggle magazine."
Jessie glared at him. "That's where my magazine went!"
Remus gave her a 'is-it-really-worth-your-time' look.
"Sounds fun!" James grinned.
Julie smiled. "I'm in!"
Lily rolled her eyes. "You're going to make me anyway, so I guess I won't put up a fight."
"You're not going to make me!" Jessie cried.
"James, you get the bottle, Lily, you get the basket," Sirius grinned evilly.
"Oh god!" Lily cried. "No!"
"Strip Truth-or-Dare," Sirius said.
"Padfoot," James started.
"Don't test me Prongsie."
"Fine. Lily, just get the basket. I won't make you do anything you don't want to," James said. Lily groaned and went up to the girls' dorm. James left for the Kitchens.
"I'm not playing," Jessie said.
"Especially not after that," Remus said.
"You can't make me!"
"I can give you a detention, Sirius." Remus grabbed his Prefect badge.
"Play. Detention means nothing to me. If you don't play something very bad will happen to you in your sleep."
"No!"
"Jessie! You'd better play; we don't want everyone in school to know your secret now, do we?" Julie said sweetly.
"No!" They yelled together.
"I'm back!" Lily called.
Sirius and Julie grinned and dragged Remus and Jessie to the carpet where they'd be playing. Jessie and Remus tried to reach for something that they could use to get away.
"Back!" James yelled. He was levititating eighteen bottles of what looked like firewhiskey.
"Where's the one bottle we sent you out for?" Remus asked. James set down the firewhiskey and pulled out his wand.
"Accio bottle!" An empty bottle came zooming out of the boys' dormatories.
"So let's play!" Sirius said, the evil grin still on his face. He sat down next to Remus and Julie sat down next to Jessie. James sat down next to Sirius, putting the bottle in the middle. Lily sat down next to Julie, putting the basket in the space between herself and James.
"Who's going first?" Sirius asked.
