It was Halloween at Hogwarts, a real sight to see. Pumpkins scattered the grounds, some carved and some waiting to be carved. You loved Halloween and Hogwarts was the best place to be at this time of the year.
"So what's the plan for tonight?" Mary asked sitting next to you on the couch in the Gryffindor common room. Lily appeared next.
"When it's time for bed you lot can come to mine and Alice's room." Alice nodded in agreement. "Sounds good," Lily said. Mary looked around the empty common room, it was only you three and a sleeping Peter Pettigrew in there.
"Shall I bring butter beer?" She asked, you nodded
~~~~~~~~
"You're sure it's tonight?" James asked looking at Peter, he nodded. "Y/N said that Lily and Mary can go to hers and Alice's room tonight," Remus frowned. "How did you find this out Worm Tail?" Peter smirked. "They thought I was asleep,"
"So what are we going to do?" James asked with a smirk. "Let's go and surprise them, it's better than doing nothing," Peter said excitedly. Sirius shook his head. "It's Halloween boys, you know what that means?" He asked looking around his group of friends.
"It's the night little demons come out and play pranks on unsuspecting victims," he said exciting the boys even more. "Who's in?" Sirius asked. "Definitely," James said in an instant. "I'm up for it," Peter said with a smile. "Moony?" James said looking at the prefect. "I'm in- but what kind of prank?" James nodded, "I don't want to hurt lily," Sirius nodded.
The boys began to plan how they'd mess with you and your friend. This was going to be a night to remember!
~~~~~~~
You heard a knock at your door and Alice went to answer it.
Lily and Mary snuck in, both carrying bottles of butter beer.
"Did anyone see you?" Alice asked, lily shook her head. "Everyone's asleep!" She said with a smile. You'd get into a lot of trouble if they found out you guys were having a slumber party.
You and Alice had moved your beds to the corner of the room, the floor was covered in blankets and pillows, in front of the make shift bed on the floor was a tv.
"Bloody hell, what did you have to do to get that?" Mary asked, Alice shuddered. "Don't ask." She said making you all giggle.
You had a pile of treats to eat too, bertie bots every flavour beans, chocolate frogs, exploding Bon bons, fudge flies and loads more. You'd been stashing the candy away for over a month to plan for tonight.
"So what are we watching?" Lily asked sitting down on the pile of comfy pillows.You held up a selection of DVD's. "Are they all horror movies?" Alice asked looking scared, "We can't have a movie night on Halloween with out watching some spooky films to get us in the mood!" You said with a smirk.
~~~~~~~
You had all settled down and were watching The Ring when there was a knock at the door. Alice jumped into your lap, "who is it?" She said terrified.
"Shut up!" Mary snapped at her, "turn the bloody tv down!" You said before going to the door. Lily and Mary had hidden themselves away and you readied yourself for a row off who ever was at the door.
You opened the door but found nobody stood there.
"Who is it?" Alice said but you didn't reply because the note laying on the ground had caught your eye.
"Y/N?" Lily called out.
You shut the door. "It's safe to come out," you said as you opened the letter.
"What's it say?" Mary asked climbing from under your bed.
Trick or Treat?
"What does that mean?" Alice asked staring at the letter, you shrugged.
"Just somebody playing a prank, lets finish the film." You said tossing the letter to one side.
You all settled down in to the comfortable fort in the floor, Alice was snuggled in to Lily, both girls slightly scared of the movie while you and Mary scoffed down on a pack of jelly slugs.
The movie took a turn, the monster jumped out causing all 4 of you to scream out and cling on to each other, you were sure you could hear someone snicker but decided it was just your imagination.
Knock-Knock-Knock
"Eek!" Mary squeaked from beside you. "Chill out," you said standing to your feet. When you opened the door there was no one stood in front of you but sat there was another letter.
You picked it up and slid the parchment paper out of the envelope.
"It's another letter!" You said sounding annoyed yet a little disturbed. "What's it say?" Lily said eyeing the letter you held in your hands.
Trick
"Who's doing this?" Alice said getting annoyed. You opened the front door again and threw the letter out. "Screw you- whoever you are! You don't scare us!" You whisper yelled at the open air.
You slammed the door shut and turned around to your friends who were all huddled together. Mary went pale and pointed to the space next to your feet.
When you down you saw the letter sat there, mocking you. You jumped away from it as if it were a poisonous snake.
"How the hell is that possible?" You asked yourself since none of the girls answered you. Alice shrieked when she looked over at the television, the picture was static but that's not what scared her. The food you'd all previously been enjoying was now floating in mid air.
"Screw this!" You screamed and ran for the door, the three girls following behind you.
"Open it!" Lily screamed from behind you. You pulled and pulled as hard as you could but the door wouldn't budge.
"It won't open!" Mary pushed you to one side and pulled at the door but it still wouldn't budge. "We are here to claim you~" a deep, raspy voice spoke making you all scream.
"Like hell are you taking one of us!" You said as you ran for your wand, which was sat by your bed but it was gone, all of your Wands were gone.
"We're going to die!" Alice cried out. "Who is the first to die~" the voice spoke out.
"I love you guys!" Lily cried. "It's been nice knowing you all!" You cried out.
"Hahahahahaha~" an evil laughter filled the room.
Then another laughter joined it, and another and another until there was four unknown voices laughing at you all cuddled together.
"Pads I can't take this much more!" You heard a familiar voice laugh out. "James?" Lily said confused. "Shut up prongs!" Another voice spoke. "Peter?" Alice said still crying.
"Wait a minute-" you said letting go of your friends.
"Boys- we know it's you!" You said crossing your arms.
Suddenly Peter came out from under your bed, which was slightly scary.
Remus opened the door and stepped in with a guilty smirk on his face.
"Where's the other 2?" You said annoyed. That's when Sirius and James appeared from beside you.
You jumped when you saw them suddenly appear.
"What the hell are you guys doing here?" Mary asked. "Playing a trick on you," Peter said sounding smug. "That's not funny!" Alice said clinging on to lily.
"How'd you do it?" You asked looking over at Sirius.
"When we left the first note, Prongs, worm tail and I all snuck in under the cloak, before you could close the door." James smiled at lily who didn't look happy. "Remus stayed outside to keep leaving notes and hold the door shut when you tried to get out," Remus smiled, hoping none of you would kill him.
"That's not funny." You said pouting, "we're sorry but we couldn't resist!" Peter laughed out. "Besides it was only a joke," you nodded. "Wanna come watch the film with us?" The boys were surprised by your hospitality but all sat down with you.
"Thanks for not getting mad," Sirius whispered in your ear, he was cuddled in next to you. "It was just a prank!" You said with a smile. Sirius nodded before turning his head back to the television where the rest of the Ring was on.
"Hey Sirius~" you said asking the boy turn to you. Sirius jumped into the air at the sight of you sat next to him with your hair in your face like the girl on the TV.
You started to crawl around the boys, making them all scream in turn before running out of your room.
"What's wrong boys?" Alice called after them. "It's just a prank!" You mocked as they ran screaming to their rooms. "You are an evil genius!" Lily said with a smile.
You all laughed before enjoying the rest of your sleep over.
