Chapter 2
James Potter walked into a jewellery store muttering to himself.
Isn't that first sign of insanity?
"Why are you even doing this Prongs? She hates you. You are just going to embarrass yourself even more. Just walk out of the shop James and no one will ever know. But you already have the dress. Ah to hell with it she's already embarrassed me to many times to count what's one more?" The man behind the counter cleared his throat and was staring James with wary eyes.
"Can I help you sir?"
"Yes actually I'm looking for something for a girl. It's her birthday soon. A necklace perhaps?"
"What's you price range boy?"
"Um… I don't have one. My parents just said to put it on the Potter tab."
"You're a Potter. I should have guessed. You look just like your father. Come back here let me show you are finest selection."
Half an hour later James emerged from the store with a small parcel and a huge smile.
I know who can wipe it off.

"Come on Lils. I'm bored. I don't know anything about muggles." Sirius shouted through Lily Evans's window.
"Well you should have thought of that before you bought a flat in muggle London." Lily stuck her head out the window.
"I did but I knew that my bestest bud Lily lived just around the corner and could help me with everything muggle." Sirius made a puppy dog face that he knew Lily couldn't resist.
"Damn you Siri. You bought a flat around the bloody corner. All I can say is you'd better not bring Potter over." Lily's head disappeared from the window. A few seconds later she emerged from the front door of her massive house. As usual she looked completely stunning in a white sundress. Her hair was in a loose ponytail with some curly tendrils escaping.
"Ha! I knew you would come. No lady can resist my Sirius-ness." Sirius received a punch in the arm. The two of them walked along the road in silence.
"Liiiiiiiiiiily! Where are we going?" Sirius whined.
"We are going to a muggle park." Lily replied. All of a sudden Lily started running towards a swing.
"Last one there is a flobberworm!" Lily was almost at the swings when Sirius tackled her to the ground.
"That wasn't very fair my dear Lilyflower." Lily struggled to escape from under him.
"Sirius let me go!"
"Nope. You are actually quite comfortable. I think I'm going to take a loooooooong nap." Sirius chuckled to himself. Suddenly Lily kicked him off of her and was glaring at him murderously.
"You have ten seconds to run before I make sure you never have children." She snarled. Sirius laughed and ran off. The two of them spent the afternoon running around the playground laughing at each others antics. How cute.

Mary Macdonald fidgeted in her seat. She looked anxiously at the clock on the wall of the café. Was Remus even going to show up? She jumped when someone tapped her on the shoulder.
"Was someone worried I wasn't going to show?" a deep male voice whispered in her ear.
"Jesus Lupin! Don't do that to me." Mary muttered a string of profanities under her breath.
"Now, now Twitch. Watch your language." Remus shook his head in mock disapproval.
"Whatever Remus. How's your hols been?"
"Boring as hell. My mum made me go on a trip to Venice so I couldn't go to James's."
"A trip to Venice! The horror! Do you have any idea how spoiled you sound?" Mary mocked.
"As if you aren't as spoiled rotten as the rest of us. Who threw a fit last year when Daddy didn't get her the right broomstick for her birthday?" Remus smirked.
"That was Dor-" Mary was interrupted by the arrival of a short man in an expensive looking suit.
"Mar-mar! How's the family? I haven't seen you since that banquet your mother threw back in April." Mary and the man exchanged air-kisses.
"Who's this strapping young man? Is he your new fellow?" There was an awkward pause.
"Bilius I would like you to meet Remus Lupin, my ex-boyfriend. Remus this is the party planner I was telling you about, Marlene's Uncle." Mary introduced the two men while silently thanking her mother for throwing all those boring luncheons where she had to make small talk with old geezers.
"Well lets get down to business. What do you need me for Mar-mar?" The rest of their lunch was spent debating between colour schemes and party favours.
