AN: Second chapter! Woohoo! Dance! Dance! Enjoy...

The enormous house echoed as the wind blew through the halls like an eerie whisper in the night. The moon, glittering from the sky and into the house, lighting hidden cracks in the old home. The Blacks had lived in this house, generation after generation. It was huge, and Sirius hated it. He had never liked being in oversized buildings, but small, comfortable places.

Sirius sighed and ran a hand through his dark hair. Tomorrow was the first day of his senior year. Time had gone by so fast, much to his disappointment. It seemed like he had just started high school not too long ago.

Rummaging through his drawers, he found the picture he had been looking for. It was him, James standing to the right of him, and Peter to his left. They were all laughing, Peter having chocolate on his face, James having only a little chocolate smeared on his face. It had been Peter's birthday and They had celebrated it at Sirius' house. Sirius' mother had a cake made for Peter, and it consisted mainly of chocolate. James had the great idea of pushing Peter's head into it, and it worked, but then peter got a piece of cake and threw it at James. It turned into a food fight, but cake as the only food around.

It was around 11 by the time Sirius fell asleep. and around 10 in the morning, he woke up. He mumbled something before he checked his clock. He did a double take as his eyes went wide. It was school and he was late!

Several different articles of clothing were thrown across the room as Sirius struggled to find something that matched. he finally gave up when the closest he could get was khaki pants and a dark green shirt. He quickly got dressed and ran out of his house, yelling out a "be back later" and shut the door.

The school was about 1 mile away, and Sirius really didn't feel like walking, however, without his car, he really didn't have a choice. Sighing, he set a steady pace for himself. He was thinking about his schedule when his thoughts roamed over to Remus. The tawny-haired boy had been on his mind ever since he left France. It was not everyday that you met someone as cute and adorable as he was.

Well that was awkward. One guy labeling another guy as 'cute and adorable.' It wasn't something Sirius did everyday, but when he thought about Remus, those were the first things that came into his mind. He successfully got to school, albeit late and nearly getting run over by two cars.

Sirius had made it just in time for 4th period. He had band, which his mother had, in a way, forced him to take. He slowly pulled out his saxophone and joined the rest of his class.

The hallways were long and eerily silent. This was a new place and he had no idea where he was. By some miracle, he had managed to find the Principal's Office. He lifted a shaky hand and quietly knocked on the door.

"Come in Mr. Lupin," came the patient voice of the Principal.

"Hello sir."

"Hm, having trouble finding your classes?"

Remus blushed and slowly nodded. Actually, he hadn't looked for his classes at all. He didn't know where to begin, so he just stood in the hallway, gawking at the high ceiling and stairs that lead to higher classes. Dumbledore gave a small chuckle and grabbed the phone sitting in the corner of his desk. He dialed a number and waited until someone had answered. He had said that he wanted something, but Remus was unable to hear what he asked for.

"I called for someone to show you around the school, give you a tour," Dumbledore said after he had hung up the phone.

"Oh, Alright."

"Mr.Lupin, If you ever have any trouble in any of your classes, just let me know and I'll see what I can do, alright?"

"Y-yes sir," Remus mumbled quietly when someone came through the door. He looked the person over, and his head went straight to Dumbledore. "Is this...my 'tour guide'?"

"Yes Mr. Lupin. I want you to meet Lily Evans. She is one of our best students here at Hogs High. She's also one of our best musicians in school. Along with the 'Marauders' of course," Dumbledore looked at Lily, a twinkle in his eye at the mention of the three boys.

Remus had no clue as to who the "Marauders" were, but he had a feeling that they were pretty popular. The young man gave the Principal a nod of thanks and headed out the door behind Lily.

She had long red hair and brilliantly green eyes. She had slightly tanned skin, and a nice body. Remus had to admit that she was pretty attractive. She seemed to be examining him as well, and when their eyes met, she gave him a huge grin.

"Hi! I'm Lily Evans, obviously. I know who you are so no worries there. I guess I'm supposed to show you around, so let's start here. This is the Attentdance Office, and that over there," she pointed to a tall building," is the 'C' building." After pointing and walking over to various buildings, Lily thought Remus was getting the idea of things.

"I don't get this schedule though. Why do I have 7 classes?"

"It must be different over there. We're in school for several hours, during then, you have 4 periods in the morning, all of which are about 45 minutes to an hour. Then there's lunch which goes for an hour. Then you have the last two periods of the day, and school's out for the day."

"Okay. I think I have it."

"Any other questions?"

"Hm... Oh yes, who are the 'Marauders'?"

Lily blushed and then place her hands behind her back. She slowly started walking in a random direction, looking as though she was contemplating something. "The Marauders are...People. Well duh, but they're these three guys who like to cause trouble. Funny thing is, almost all the girls love them. They'reall really gorgeous and--oh, I'm sorry. I'm getting off track," She gave Remus and apologetic smile, in which he simply nodded, becoming too interesting in her little description to care.

"I guess you could say they're the bad boys in the school, who are good. They cause trouble whenever they can, and yet they're in the top ten highest grade point averages in the school. Just don't get on their bad side, and you'll graduate unscathed. You know, you speak english pretty fluently."

There was a soft chuckle as remus lifted his hand up to scratch his head. "I learned english a few years back. I practiced whenever I could."

She nodded and then giggled, "You're pretty cute too, you know? I think we could get along pretty well. You want to sit with me during lunch? That's in a few hours. You should get to your second period class now. You know where it is, right?" Remus nodded and she turned around, waved and said:

"I'll come get you during lunch!"

The wind blew as Remus stared at the spot Lily had just left from. He had already made afriend, and he had only been here a few hours. Well he had more friends here than he did at home. Maybe this foreign exchange deal was a better idea than he originally thought.

cccLunch timeccc

The shrilly noice that sounded from the speakers atop the white board protruded into the silence of the band room. Everyone had been gathered at the door, silently waiting for the bell to ring, signalling the start of lunch.

Doors slammed open and teens filled the hallways and the outside. Sirius slowly ran a hand through his hair, sighing and looking around. He grinned when he saw who he was looking for.

"James!" He called out, rushing past the hordes of people to reach his friend.

"Sirius, where have you been?" James questioned, looking somewhat angry.

Looking sheepishly down at the ground, Sirius mumbled that he had slept in, causing James to burst out into laughter.

"When have you not slept in on the first day of school? You missed it though!"

"Huh? Missed what?"

Grinning from ear to ear, James threw an arm over Sirius' shoulder and started walking towards their usual spot in the cafeteria. "The foreign exchange student! He took the place of...That one guy that we used to always play jokes on. Oh gosh, what was his name? Oh! Karl Jones. Yeah, they exchanged homes, and so Karl's in France or something. The new guys name was Ramlus Loopy or something weird like that."

"Wow. I missed alot." Sirius said unenthusiastically.

Frowning, James added," Not really. All the girl were swooning over him, and everybody was trying to talk to him. They wouldn't leave the poor guy alone."

Sirius laughed and didn't watch were he was going, causing himself to run into someone. "Sorry. I wasn't watching where I was--" Sirius looked at the person who was staring at him, shock on his face.

There was a silence that fell over everyone who had seen the accident. They were waiting for, hoping someone would say something soon. Both boys sudenly grinned, shouting at the same time:

"Remus!"

"Sirius!"
