HI, SECOND CHAPTER! You may or may not have guessed, but each oneshot will be a short oneshot, drabble thing about each of his birthdays.
Disclaimer: I am not JK Rowling, simple as.
Enjoy!

Sirius' second Hogwarts birthday was slightly different to his first.
Mainly, he and his friends had already made themselves known throughout the school. They had a name, the Marauders, but they were currently trying to come up with nicknames for each other. They couldn't think of anything.
But as he had made a name for himself, Sirius needed to make sure the whole school knew when the most important day of the year was (except Christmas. Nothing is better than Christmas.).
He enlisted the help of his mates, and they changed the school overnight. When all the drowsy Hogwarts students came down in the morning, they found the whole school decorated in birthday banners and all the portraits were singing.
The Great Hall was the best. Banners and tinsel and glitter covered the Hall, and music started playing upon the Marauders entrance. Sirius had glittery robes and everyone laughed. Sirius wasn't embarrassed (quite the opposite) and loved it. At lunch the Marauders, already the best in the year at Charms (not including a certain Miss Evans), jinxed Snivellus, Lucius, Regulus, Bellatrix and a few other Slytherins, to break out into song every few hours. Sirius could not pass a Slytherin without getting serenaded or a couple of rounds of 'Happy Birthday'. It was fabulous.
Professor McGonagall did her best to stop it, but Dumbledore was doing his best to stop her. Sirius had gone to the headmaster the day before, all pleading and promises and puppy-eyes and begged for Dumbledore to give them permission.
He had agreed with the customary twinkle in his eye, hoping this day would be fun.
He was not disappointed, and as they had Dumbledore's permission, the Marauders weren't technically breaking any rules.
Sirius got presents from the Marauders, and most of his year, and a few from other years. He even got a few from secret admirers.
Sirius had a great day.
