"Dad, I want you to tell me about Mom."
Remus Lupin glanced at his daughter, Trish. The war had come to an end about seven months ago and his daughter was still happily dating her boyfriend sitting beside her, Harry Potter. It was Christmas Eve and they had come home from Hogwarts, where they had been offered to repeat their seventh year, to spend Christmas Eve with him and the Weasleys tomorrow. "What do you want to know?"
"Everything, when you first saw her, how you got together, who her friends were, how you two met-"
Remus couldn't help the laugh that escaped his throat at the thought of how he started dating Trish's mother, Iris, and Trish looked at him oddly. "I'm sorry, I was just thinking about how I met your Mother, did I never tell you that story?"
She shook her head.
Remus put down his cup of hot chocolate and gazed off to the side recalling memories. "Well, you know your mother was in Ravenclaw so I didn't know her that well until seventh year." He said.
"What happened seventh year?" She asked.
"She started dating a Gryffindor." Remus replied.
"Who?"
"Sirius," he replied.
At this point Harry Potter choked on his hot chocolate and Trish was so shocked she just stared at her father, "Sirius? As in Sirius Black? My Mom dated Sirius Black before she dated you?"
Remus nodded as his head flooded with memories. "I don't know if you can really call it 'dating'. It was more like punishment."
"I don't understand." Trish said still staring at her father who was looking off into space.
Remus Lupin looked back at his daughter whose eyes were swimming with confusion and began to tell their story.
