"James! Listen to me!"

James scoffed from his bed at Sirius Black. He was busy writing Quidditch strategies and his Transfiguration essay but Sirius wouldn't leave him alone. "I'm kind of busy over here."

Sirius sighed, throwing his entire body on James' bed rather dramatically. James rolled his eyes. "Prongs!"

James made no comment as he continued to write. Perhaps if the beaters were to fly in a vert-

"JAMES!" cried Sirius suddenly, shouting directly in his ear. "I asked you a question!"

James furrowed his eyebrows. "No, you didn't."

"Yes, I did," pouted Sirius. "You never listen to me."

"What do you want Padfoot?"

Sirius grumbled, "You would know that if you listened."

"Stop tasting my patience, Padfoot," James said as he wacked Sirius on the head with his pillow. "You know I'm not a saint."

"Okay, okay, it's just well, you see, that um, we-"

"Spit it out."

"You never have any time for me anymore," Sirius blurted out.

James looked at him strangely. "What?"

"It's always Lily this, Lily that. I'm happy she finally said yes but when am I going to spend time with you?"

James' mouth dropped open. This action somehow fueled Sirius.

"If it's not her, then it's Quidditch! You're not the captain all the time! And every since you became Head Boy, you've grown dull!"

"Dull?" Echoed James. "Dull!?"

"Yes, dull." Sirius nodded firmly.

"Have not," muttured James.

"Really?" Sirius asked, raising a brow. "Are you sure, Prongs?"

James nodded. "I'm dashing, charming, intelligent, and many more but I am not dull."

"Oh yeah?" Challenged Sirius.

"Yeah," James agreed.

"When's the last time you pulled a prank, huh?"

James opened his mouth to retaliate but came up short.

"Thought so." Sirius' smug smile stared at him. "D-U-L-L. Dull."

James scowled. "That doesn't prove anything."

"Dull," answered Sirius in a mocking tone.

"I'll show you!"

Sirius watched in amusement as James sprang from his bed in a hurry. He quickly pulled the invisibility cloak from his trunk along with the Marauders Map.

"I'm going to pull the best prank ever!"

Sirius smiled triumphantly. He knew he'd have James pranking again. No one could take that part away from his brother.

"Let's get started then Jamsie!"
