Music makes the heart grow fonder
I smirked as I watched my over hyperactive best friend jump up and down like an excited puppy, his curls catching in the wind and blowing into his face, covering his stormy grey eyes.
"Can we leave before Sirius wets himself" asked James biting his lip to hold back the laughter that threatened to erupt.
"I suppose...I mean we don't want another accident like last time" I said winking at Sirius, who proceeded to dance around the hall eccentrically, letting out a series of whoops and hollers.
"Wow, Sirius you would never guess this was your first muggle concert" chimed Lily sarcastically as she intertwined her fingers with James's, more to stop him from joining in with his friends antics than anything else.
"Its a shame Remus couldn't come" I commented as we made our way to the main entrance of the castle to apparate.
"Yeah, he was really looking forward to it but he's still in the hospital wing from the other night" James voice oozed with compassion for his friend. Me and Lily had known about Remus being a werewolf since third year as well as the other lads animagic forms. We had gotten suspicious and decided to do some research before confronting the boys with the news that we knew what was going on.
"Don't worry about him" Lily commented "Kate said she was going to go sit with him as she can't come either" Sirius raised his eyebrows suggestively.
"There is definitely something going on there" I laughed.
"I conquer" Sirius sang.
"Oh big words there Pads, well done" mocked James, hitting him playfully on the arm.
"Are you trying to insinuate that I'm not clever" Sirius feigned insult; deciding to intervene before an over dramatised argument broke out, I stepped in, changing the subject.
"Course he wasn't Sirius, now let's go we need to apparate before it gets too late and there's lots of muggles around."
"Finally!" Sirius's masculine voice boomed as he grabbed my hand, pulling me around the entrance hall twirling me round with him, laughing as we went.
"Come on guys we need to get going" prompted Lily an edge of reluctance in her voice as she was obviously enjoying the sceptical me and Sirius were making of ourselves.
Latching onto Sirius's arm, we apparated into an alley behind the gig venue. As we arrived I grabbed onto my churning stomach, stumbling forward, Sirius grabbed my arm, chuckling under his breath as he steadied me. I still wasn't used to apparating –but at least I had gotten over the sickness.
"Thanks" I mumbled as I looked up at my smirking best friend.
A few seconds later Lily and James arrived, popping into place next to us. Lily looked gorgeous as always; her auburn hair hanging loosely in curls, she wore a floral shift dress (not the most normal concert attire) but she had teamed it with studded dolly shoes that fastened around her dainty ankles, to give it a more rocky vibe.
I had opted for a pair of high-waisted shorts with a band t-shirt, my right wrist lined with a selection of colourful bracelets. However on its own, occupying its usual place on my left wrist was a slim chained silver charm bracelet that Sirius had gotten me two years ago for my birthday.
Since then every special occasion, including his own birthday he would get me a new charm for it. So far I had seven slender silver charms, each representing a different event in my life which had occurred with Sirius. The first one he had gotten me was a dog, to represent himself, a sock to commemorate the time I dared him to eat one, a fairy to symbolise the time I dressed as Tinkerbell for a fancy dress party, a centar...(a fiasco that's best not to be gone into). Every small silver charm has a special meaning to me and I loved the personal nature of the gift.
Sirius interrupted my thoughts with his excited chatter "can we go in yet...ohhh I wanna hold my ticket...can I keep it afterwards?" he clapped his hands excitedly reminding me of a small child, his grin infectious.
Never one to miss an opportunity to wind Sirius up, I looked up at him innocently smiling, staring into his deep grey eyes "you already have the tickets" I said.
Sirius frowned in confusion, his temple creasing in thought, my heart rate suddenly accelerated at his cute expression "but I thought you had them" he stuttered, his face scrunching in worry. Before I could reply Lily and James burst into laughter.
Sticking his tongue out Sirius whined "don't do that to me!" still laughing I rolled my eyes at him before leading the others to the ticket booth.
