2: Friends In Detention

Elliots hair and eye colour is at the bottom!


I woke up to someone shaking me, "Elliot, wake up! It's time for breakfast!" I opened my eyes to be met with the excited face of Lily Evans.

I groaned and rolled over, "More sleep." I whined, Lily crossed her arms. I assumed that she had walked away but then I felt a tug at then end of my sheets. Then, all of a sudden the duvet flew off. 

"HEY!" You shouted, sitting bolt up right, Alice, Molly and Lily laughed, "Glad to see that your finally awake." Molly giggled.

I sighed and got out of bed, changing into my school robes, "Right, well, I'll see you later." I said to the other girls, they all waved as I walked out of the dorm and down into the common room.

I saw Felix sitting on one of the sofas with his back facing me, I slowly and quietly crept up behind him, "BOO!" I shouted, Felix let out a high pitch scream and fell off the sofa.

Felix glared at me while I doubled over laughing, "I never new you could scream like that!" I exclaimed through laughter.

"Come on, lets just go." Felix grumbled, tugging me out of the common, along the corridor and down the marble stairs. 

We walked into the great hall and sat down at the Gryffindor table to be met with Thomas and Charlie, "Hello you two." Charlie said, I looked up smiling, "Hello." 

"What are you two up to?" Thomas asked, raising an eye brow, "Nothing." Felix and I said in sync. 

"Right, very convincing." Charlie rolled his eyes, "We best be off, don't cause to much trouble." He added.

"See you later." Thomas continued, I waved, "Bye."

Once they were out of ear shot I turned to Felix, "Right, what will our first prank be?" I asked, Felix grinned widely.

As we discussed our first prank professor Mcgonagall came up to us, "Here are your time tables, don't be late." She spoke stiffly, handing us a pice of parchment each and walking off.

"What's our first lesson?" I asked, finishing off my beacon sandwich.

"We have double charms first and then history of magic." He answered, studying the rest of his time table.

"Okay, we'll do the prank during history of magic, that'll liven things up a bit." I said, through a mouthful of beacon.

After we were finished we grabbed our books, walked out of the great hall and up the marble stair case.

We followed some other first year Gryffindors to the right class room and sat down at the back of the classroom.

Once the lesson had started I heard whispering from a few desks over, I looked in that direction and saw the four boys from the train.

"Hey, aren't those the boys from the train?" I asked Felix in a hushed tone, he looked over and nodded.

"Yea, I'm in there dorm." He whispered back, looking back at his work, "What did Flitwick just say?"

After the lesson had ended we packed up our things and walked down the corridor, "Do you have everything you need?" I asked, following other Gryffindors towards the history of magic classroom.

Felix nodded, "Yea, do you?" I grinned, "Ready to go." 

We walked into the classroom, I walked down the right side of the classroom while Felix walked down the left. I reached Mollys table, "Hey Molly is it okay if I sit next to you?" I asked.

Molly looked up smiling, "Of course!" She exclaimed, I grinned and took a seat next to her.

I looked over to see where Felix was, he was sat on the opposite side of the class room in the perfect position.

Suddenly a ghost walk into the classroom through the wall, some of the other students gasped, "Hello, I am professor Binns your history of magic teacher." His voice was more of a drone then anything else.

We were about half way through the lesson and I could tell that everyone was on the verge of sleep, even Lily who seemed so enthusiastic about everything looked like she was half asleep. That's when I knew that this was the perfect time to put our prank into action. 

It was a couple of minutes before I managed to get Felix's attention, he looked over at me and I nodded. 

Very slowly I slipped my hand into my bag and dug out my magnetic dungbomb. I looked around to see if anyone was watching. My eyes soon met with a pair of hazel eyes who belonged to James Potter, the boy from the train.

He raised an eyebrow at me but I just grinned and looked back at Felix, who had his dungbomb ready. Together we quietly counted down, three, two, one!

We through our dungbombs into the air where they were pulled together and zoomed towards the front of the classroom, strait onto professor Binns's desk where they exploded.

All the students burst out laughing, "Oh that was funny!" Molly exclaimed from next to me, I grinned over at her.

Professor Binns stood up, "Mister and Miss Blackwood! Detention with me tonight!" He shouted over the laughing students. I grinned over at Felix.

After the lesson ended I met Felix out side of the classroom, "Well done, I didn't expect it to go that well." I laughed, Felix nodded in agreement, chuckling to him self.

"Elliot, Felix, why did you do that?" I heard a voice come from behind me, I looked round to find Lily with her hands crossed over her chest.

"Oh come one Lily, that was funny, no need to get in a fuss." I answered, she narrowed her eyes but then broke out in a smile, "Okay, it was kinda funny." I chuckled and shook my head. 

"Oh this is Felix my twin." I told Lily, gesturing to my brother who smiled and stuck out his hand, "Nice to meet you." He said, Lily shook his hand, "It's nice to meet you to." She answered.

"Well, lovely talking to you both but I've got to go." She said and sped off down the corridor.

I checked my watch, "Crap, we've got three minutes until our next lesson and we have no clue where it is." I said, looking down the corridor.

"What's our next lesson?" Felix asked and started to walk down the corridor.

"Transfiguration with professor Mcgonagall, and according to Tommy she's very strict." I answered.

-

The day passed by very quickly, by lunch time my head hurt slightly from all the note taking and new information and before I new it, it was time to go to our detention. 

Felix and I walk up to professor Binns's classroom. Upon arriving we were met not only by professor Binns but with James Potter and Sirius Black.

"Ah, Mister and Miss Blackwood, about time you showed up, take a seat." Professor Binns said, Felix and I walked over to the desks next to James and Sirius. I sat at the seat closest to James, who was on my left.    

"You will all be writing lines." Professor Binns said, handing us each a roll of parchment and a quill, "Write this until the detention is over." He added pointing to the board, which read, 'I must not pull pranks.'

About twenty minutes into our detention, professor Binns fell asleep. I sighed and threw down my quill, "I'm James Potter." I looked over at James, "I'm Elliot Blackwood." I answered.

Sirius looked over at me, "Isn't Elliot a boys name?" He asked, I shrugged, "So?"

"Well you don't look like a boy." He said, I raised my eyebrow.

"Nether do you with hair that long." I shot back, James and Felix laughed, Sirius went a slight shade of pink but grinned non the less.

"Touché." Sirius answered, still smiling, "I can tell we'll be great friends." He added, I chuckled.

"Speaking of which, do you want to come and meet our other friends after the detention?" James asked, I looked over at Felix who nodded, "Yea!" Both Felix and I both exclaimed, James and Sirius laughed.   

The rest of the detention was spent talking and joking around until professor Binns woke up. We quickly stopped laughing, "Five minutes left." He announced.

The four of us franticly scribbled down as many lines as we could in the remaining five minutes. 

Once professor Binns let us out of the detention we walk down a corridor, "That prank that you pulled earlier was cool." James said as Sirius nodded in agreement, "Thanks, have you guys ever seen a paintbomb?" Felix asked, they shook their heads.

I unzipped my bag and pulled out a small round pink ball that was slightly squidgy, "Once you prod it with your wand it activates, look I'll show you." I explained, pulling out my wand and poking the bomb with it.

Then I through it down a corridor to our left, but just as the paintbomb exploded a Slytherin prefect walked down the corridor.

The prefect was covered from head to toe in pink paint, "RUN!" Felix yelled and the four of us ran down the corridor away from the pink Slytherin.

We ran all the way to Gryffindor tower and burst into the common room laughing madly, "What are you all laughing at?" A boy asked, James shook his head, "An accidental explosion." He answered, sitting down next to him.

"Poor old Slytherin." Sirius added, sitting next to James, one of the two boys who were there before we arrived looked at Felix and I, "Who are you?" One asked.

"Well, you already know Felix, this is his twin, Elliot. Elliot, this is Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew. These are our new friends that we met in detention." James explained to Remus and Peter. 

"Okay, any friend of James and Sirius is a friend to us, welcome to the group." Remus smiled widely. I laughed, "Thanks."

Peter came and sat next to Felix, "Wait, aren't you two the kids that burst into our compartment?" Peter asked, I nodded, "Why was that older boy chasing you?" Remus asked, I laughed.

"That's one of our older brothers, Theo, we pranked him on the train." I explained, Peter nodded.

"Do you have lots of siblings then?" Sirius asked, Felix nodded, "Yea, to many if you ask me." He grumbled, causing everyone to laugh.

"Our eldest brother is called Jacob, he left Hogwarts last year, he was a Ravenclaw. Then theres Theo, he's four years older then us but in Slytherin. Charlie is two years older and in Gryffindor, Thomas is one year older and also in Gryffindor. We also have a younger sister called Lucy who is two years younger. Our mum is in Slytherin and our dad is in Gryffindor, there divorced." I explained.

Sirius whistled, "Wow, big family." James laughed, "I think I've heard of Theo though, is he good at quidditch?" James asked, I nodded.

"Yea, best quidditch player for Slytherin, he plays beater." Felix answered.

For the rest of the evening the six of us joked around and planned pranks for the coming year. 

"Right, I think it's late enough and I'm quite tired. So do you all want to meet down here for breakfast tomorrow?" Remus asked, Felix and I nodded.

"Well, since were all friends now I'd like to think that we would hang out." Sirius replied, rolling his eyes at Remus. We all laughed, "Okay well, see you lot tomorrow." I yawned. 

"Night." The boys said, I smiled, "Night." I answered as I walked up to the girls dorms.

I quietly snuck into the dorm with out making a sound, then trying not to wake the other girls I changed into my pyjamas, got into bed and fell into a deep sleep.
