“Oh, watch out Prongs,” Sirius said, kicking James under the table.
James looked up to see Lily storming towards them, furiously. They were sitting in the common room at the study tables, and he has stupidly sat in the corner. There was no escape. He couldn’t figure out what it was…
“Hey Evans, looking beau-” he started.
“SHUT UP POTTER! You fat head git. What in Merlin’s name were you doing with that dark arts book? Why on EARTH would you want to learn the DEATH CURSE FOR?” she screamed.
James looked at Sirius, who winked at him.
“Black, don’t you even START with the jokes, I’m reporting you too!” she yelled. “Now answer me.”
“We weren’t looking at the Death Curse, we only wanted to know how to perform Crucio to expand the trouble we cause Sniv-” he started, before realising what he had just said. Sirius’ face fell. So did Lily’s.
“You… you… you wanted to learn how to perform the Cruciatus curse on Severus?” she said, tears welling in her eyes.
She turned around and ran into Remus. Grabbing his arm, she pulled him out the door with her.
“Where are we going?”
“Professor Dumbledore.”
