Chapter One

Nearly two years later

It was a eight months before Remus and Emily were to be married. They had saved enough to begin thinking about the date of the wedding. It did take alot longer than thought at first, since Remus was having trouble keeping a job with his condition. Unfortunately, it was the full moon tonight so Remus went down into the basement about twenty minutes before the moon would be out. Emily kissed him goodbye and closed the door. She locked it and said a few spells. She sat down on the couch and waitted. She heard a howl from the basement and sighed. Lucky she didn't have anyone close to where she lived to actually complain. She sat there about about an hour and than Sirius showed up.

"Is he down there?" Sirius asked.

"Yes," Emily said, "he has been for awhile."

"Oh," Sirius said, looking around, "I brought a movie."

"What one?" Emily asked, looking interested.

"House on Haunted Hill," Sirius said, quickly putting it into the tv.

Sirius sat down on the couch, next to Emily and the movie started.

"Is James and Lily joining us?" Emily asked.

"I don't think so," Sirius said, "Lily has been so tired and stressed lately."

"Don't see why," Emily said, "I'm shocked she's not really showing."

"How far along is she now?" Sirius asked.

"About eight months," Emily said, looking at Sirius, "you should know that."

Sirius just nodded his head. They continued to watch the movie. They both ended up falling asleep before the movie ended. Emily woke up just as the sun shined through the windows. She looked over at Sirius who was stil sleeping. She got up and headed to the kitchen. She said a spell and breakfast was soon making itself. She turned to the basement and unlocked the door. She went down to see that Remus was passed out on the floor. She grabbed the clothes from the wall and walked over to him. He woke up and looked around. Emily helped him get dressed and helped him up the stairs.

"When did Sirius get here?" Remus asked as Emily helped him sit down on the couch.

"He got here last night," Emily said, "he brought a horror movie. You know him and those muggle horror movies."

"Yes," Remus said.

Emily quickly went and got him a plate of eggs, toast, and ham. He slowly ate his food. She got another plate and woke Sirius up. He took it with a smile. She than went and got her own food and sat down in a chair.

"Thanks for breakfast," Sirius said, with a smile.

"Why did you come here?" Remus asked, looking at Sirius.

"I thought Emily might want some company," Sirius said.

Remus nodded his head and finished his breakfast. Emily finished too and took the plates to the kitchen. She put them in the sink and they started washing themselves. She headed back into the front room to see that Sirius was leaving.

"Have fun whatever you're doing," Sirius said, waving goodbye.

Emily waved goodbye and watched him disapear in the fireplace. She sat down by Remus, who smiled.

"I'm so happy that we're getting married soon," Remus said.

"Eight months away," Emily said, "that ain't really that soon."

"I know," Remus said.

After about a half hour, Emily helped Remus to the bedroom and he fell asleep. She decided to go visit Lily while Remus rested. She found Lily laying down on the couch, reading a baby book.

"Have you picked out a name?" Emily asked, sitting down.

"Not yet," Lily said, "it's a boy though."

"That's great," Emily said, "is James excited?"

"Oh yes," Lily said, "he is so happy."

"I'm sure he is," Emily said with a smile.

"I do need to go buy a crib and some baby clothes," Lily said with a sigh.

"Then lets go do that," Emily said.

Emily and Lily left the house to go shopping. Sirius and James came back from whatever it was they were doing. James looked around the house.

"Where did Lily go?" James asked, looking at Sirius.

"I don't know," Sirius said, "maybe she went to visit Emily."

The two of them headed to Emily's house. When they got there, they noticed Remus fast asleep in the bedroom.

"Have you seen Lily?" James asked, waking Remus up.

"No," Remus moaned, "ask Emily."

"She's not here," Sirius said.

"Maybe they went somewhere," Remus said, "don't worry."

Sirius and James left the house. When they got back to James's house, they heard laughter upstairs. James and Sirius quickly went upstairs and into the babies room. They saw that there was now a crib and Lily was putting away baby clothes. James just smiled and went over to help. Sirius went over to see what Emily was doing. She had just finished with putting sheets on the crib.

"That's very good," Sirius said, with a smile.

"Ya," Emily said, "I hope one day to have kids."

"Ya, me too," Sirius said.

"Shouldn't you be heading home now?" James asked, turning to Emily.

"Yes," Emily said, "I'm sure Remus will need to eat."

Emily said goodbye to everyone and left. She found Remus stil resting in bed. She went in and got dinner ready. When she was done she took a plate into Remus, who sat up in bed.

"Thanks," Remus said with a smile.

Emily nodded her head and got her own food. She joined Remus in the bedroom. After eating, Emily put the plates in the sink. She went back into the room to see that Remus had fallen back asleep. She cuddled up next to him and fell asleep too.
