DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of these characters or the magical world.


It was a normal Sunday evening in the Gryffindor common room. The younger children were playing gobstones, some were doing homework, the fifth years were studying for their OWLs, and James Potter and Lily Evans were having a fight.

James blurted something out and Lily scowled. Everyone watching knew he had gone too far. This time he had crossed the line. He knew it too. So he ran.

"COME BACK HERE, POTTER!"

"Missing me already?"

"Ughhhh…you're such an arrogant toe rag," Lily groaned in frustration.

"But I'm your arrogant toe rag."

"No you're not. You're not my anything."

"Oh come on Evans, we all know I'm yours and you're mine."

"I'll be yours when…..when…."

James raised his eyebrow.

"When Snape gets a girlfriend," she finished triumphantly.

James looked horrified and Lily smirked at him before walking away.


"Moony!"

" Yes?"

"I have a sure shot plan of getting Evans this time."

"Is this like the other 342 times you had a plan?" asked Sirius.

"Shut up Padfoot. This one will actually work," replied James as he threw a shoe at him.

"That's what you said last time," Sirius added again.

James scowled at him and looked at his other two friends.

"What's the plan?" asked Peter.

*Whispers*

"No, absolutely not," said Remus resolutely.

"Please."

"No way."

"It'll only be for a couple of days."

"A couple of days? A couple of days? Padfoot, tell Prongs he is insane."

"I like it," said Sirius.

Remus threw a pillow at him and muttered 'thanks a lot' sarcastically.

"Please please please," whined James.

"He'll know it's me. It'll never work."

"Course it will," added Sirius encouragingly.

"Not helping," muttered Remus.

"You owe me one," tried James.

"For what?"

"For...uh...the potions notes yesterday."

"I copied notes for you."

"Exactly! You got the honour of copying notes for the one and only James Potter."

"Lily is right. You are full of yourself."

"It doesn't matter. Back to the plan."

Remus groaned and Sirius chuckled as James launched into the details of the plan.

"Wait a minute. How can Remus do it? Its full moon tomorrow," asked Peter.

"Yes! Yes! Peter, I love you! You're a genius," squealed Remus.

Peter blushed at the compliment and Sirius sniggered.

"Peter, can you do it?" asked James.

"Detention all four nights."

James turned around to look at his last hope, who was looking pointedly away from him.

"Pwetty Pwease Padfoot?"

"No."

" I'll let you have my share of Mum's chocolate chip cookies."

Sirius thought for a while before vigorously shaking his head.

"There is no way in hell that this," he said while motioning to himself "good looking, charming, handsome, rugged, God's gift to mankind is dressing up like a girl for Snivellus."

"Please Padfoot. I'd do it if I could but Lily would know."


After an hour of convincing and yelling and talks of who owes who, Sirius Black ladies' man was dressed up like a...well, lady.

His legs were hairless, and he wore a bright pink short skirt, a neon green top and red high heels. Stuffed in his top were wads of tissue paper and there was thick red lipstick smeared onto his lips along with dark kohl lining his grey eyes. Remus had commented that the combination wasn't very pleasing to the eye but that was all that Peter could steal from the girls.

Sirius ramp walked up and down the dormitory and finally put his hands up in the air for the dramatic effect 'Voila'. At this, Peter started to chortle, Remus slapped the table beside him while he giggled uncontrollably and James was rolling on the floor with bouts of laughter escaping from his mouth every few seconds.

Sirius glared at them ' Oh shut it.'

Their dormitory door opened and in came a fit looking girl with butterscotch blonde hair and pale blue upturned eyes.

"Potter, could we shift the game to...," she stopped when she saw a flash of neon pink.

James stood up, trying to look more authoritative and to cover his best mate. Marlene pushed him aside to look at the other girl who had promptly turned around. Marlene looked a bit taken a back and she spat "Who is that?"

"Gizelle," added Remus.

Sirius coughed loudly and stepped on Remus' foot.

"It's a nice name," Remus mouthed back.

"Another one of Blacks conquests?" she asked trying to sound casual.

"Is someone jealous?"

"Of course not, Potter. Don't be stupid," she replied and walked out of the room hurriedly.

"Thought you came here for something," shouted James.

"Never mind, "she yelled back and then she was gone.

"Gizelle? Really?" shouted Sirius.

"It's a decent name."

"McKinnon totally likes him," said Peter casually.

"Liked," Remus corrected.

At this, all three of them looked at Sirius and started laughing all over again.

Sirius groaned, "Let's just go."


"Look, there is Snivellus," said Sirius as he started walking towards Snape.

Remus stopped him and whispered "Remember no calling him that. And no insulting Slytherin. Good Luck."

In the corner of the library, behind a stack of books sat the greasy haired Slytherin. He seemed to be intently working on some essay as his quill furiously scribbled against the parchment. Sirius walked up to him, but the boy did not look up or give any indication of having noticed Sirius. Sirius cleared his throat and Snape continued writing.

Sirius sat down close to the boy and let out in his most seductive female voice "Sevvvvvyyyyyy!"

Severus Snape was startled out of his wits. His eyebrows disappeared into his greasy hair as he looked at the good looking girl in front of him. He swallowed nervously and looked around for some sign of the Marauders, it had to be a prank. However, to his immense surprise, the library was unusually empty.

"Hello," he replied curtly.

The girl touched his hand and then gently stroked it "How have you been?"

"Who are you?"

The girl slapped his arm playfully and cooed, "Oh you! You don't remember me."

Severus got up and backed away "No."

Severus' mind was running, trying to work out who this strange girl was. She looked painstakingly familiar, yet he couldn't seem to place her. He wished she would just leave him alone. The girl paled slightly before regaining her composure.

"I'm Gizelle. Gizelle...Black."

"I don't know anybody by that name."

The girl smiles at him. "Well now you do.'

Snape narrowed his eyes slightly before swiftly walking away. Behind the bookshelves, hidden by the invisibility cloak, Remus and James emerged.


"This isn't going to be easy," mumbled Remus.

"I touched his hand. I touched Snivelly's hand. I have grease all over it. Yuck. Ew," exclaimed Sirius.

"Oh you're such a drama queen," teased James.

Sirius did not find this one bit amusing "Why don't you do it then?"

"But I love drama queens. They're perfect for the role. I've always said, this world would be a better place with more drama queens," amended James.

Remus rolled his eyes and Sirius scowled at him.

"So what's the plan for tomorrow?" asked Peter.

"I'll try harder. Come on, how hard can it be?"

"Yeah Padfoot, you're always attracting girls. This time it's just the other way around."

"Yeah. You're right. It's as simple as that," said Sirius trying to convince himself.

"That's the spirit."

"But this…," said Sirius taking the wads of tissue out of his shirt "is not working. I need oranges."

"Oranges?" asked Remus incredulously.

"Oranges."
