Once Upon a Time

As Ella and Rosie walked along the lake in the snow they were suddenly bombarded with snowballs.

"Remus!" Ella called to her twin with a laugh. "How could you?"

"Easily, my darling Ella. You see we have this thing called magic, great stuff actually!" Remus called back with a laugh.

"Hey, don't you have prefect duties?" Rosie asked.

"Yes he does," Said Lily as she walked up to the trio. "And he's ten minutes late."

"Lily, can't you excuse him just once, I have barely seen him all year, come on Lily, for you best friend?" Ella pleaded using her best puppy dog eyes ever.

"No and that's final, Come on Remus." Lily said in her best imitation of Professor McGonagall.

"Sorry girls, I've got to go, duty calls," said Remus with a wave as he walked off with Lily.

……….

As Ella and Rosie went back up to the castle, they were met by the other three marauders: James, Sirius, and Peter.

"Hey, Ella, have you seen Moony, I mean Remus, anywhere?" James asked.

"Yea, he just went to do his rounds with Lily." Ella replied. "See you at practice guys."

"SHIT!!" Sirius suddenly cried. " WE HAVE PRACTICE TODAY."

"Yes, Black, we do so I'll see you there." Ella said smirking.

"Well, that was interesting. Why do they talk to you anyway your not really friends, Lily would kill you, she says that Rem's the only decent one." Rosie asked as she always did.

" Simple power of association, really. I'm Remus's sister, they know we're pretty close, we tell each other everything no secrets, they know that too. They know I know where he is at all times." Ella replied with a shrug.

"We'd better get going dinner's soon and we want out get out of these wet things before we catch cold." Rosie said. The two friends walked off together, laughing about some joke or the other, to dinner and dry clothes.
