Wicked

"Hey, Lils!" Sirius Black ran up to Lily in the corridor, screeching to a halt next to her. "Professor Trelawney just told me the weirdest prediction ever."

Lily, accustomed to her friend's gullibility when it came to Trelawney, motioned for him to continue.

"What if," he started, "I wrote a musical about a good witch and a wicked witch who have nothing in common and they learned to be friends in the end after attending school together all the while dancing through life and loathing each other?"

"Um," Lily said. "Sirius? No offence, but that is the worst idea ever. I mean, come on! A musical about witches? Would anyone even want to see it? We're just normal people, you know. With magic. The idea offends me."

"Arg!" Sirius cried, throwing his hands up into the air. "Dammit, I'll make a musical if I want to! And I think I'll make one witch have a green face and name her Elphaba. And she'll be loosely based on you."

Awesome

"Wow! That is some awesome pumpkin juice!" Sirius said, lowering his glass. "It goes awesomely with this awesome turkey."

"Yeah, well just think of how many house elves had to make this for us!" Lily complained, sulking into her mince pie. "You should be ashamed!"

Sirius stuffed his face with plum pudding. "Come on! They probably think that cooking for us is awesome! Just as awesome as their awesome food!"

"Padfoot! Look! They have pumpkin pasties!" James pointed, leaning over to grab some.

"YES! This feast is so awesome!"

"Erm, Sirius?" Remus asked, an amused look on his face. "You may want to try to start using a new adjective."

Icy

James and Lily stepped out of their house and into the brisk winter air. The cold wind hit them with such a force that they had to duck their heads.

"Watch out, darling," James said, grabbing his wife's hand. "It's that damn January ice that's covering the walkway."

They carefully trodded into the cold. Halfway to their car Lily stumbled. Thankfully James acted quickly and caught her before she hit the freezing pavement.

"Oh, my hero," she cried dramatically. She kissed him when James pulled her up, smiling against his lips. "You just saved me and the baby!"

James pulled back. "The baby?" His eyes widened. "Am I missing something, here?"

Fire

He loved waking up before her. He loved watching the slow rising and falling of her chest as she slept. The peaceful smile on her face made him adore her just that much more. Her long eyelashes rested against her cheek, and her freckles seemed to glow against her fair skin in light shining through their bedroom window. But most of all he loved how her crimson hair fanned out on the white pillow behind her, looking just like fire.

Pillow

Lily awoke to a shuffling in her flat. She wasn't expecting anyone, was she? She looked over towards the clock next to her bed. Of course she hadn't been expecting someone! It was two in the morning!

She cautiously grabbed a pillow off of her bed and tiptoed out of her bedroom. When she reached the kitchen the shuffling had turned into something like the sound of metal against ceramic. Preparing herself for the worst, Lily flicked on the light switch and looked around, holding the pillow tightly to her as if it were a shield.

"Sirius Black!" she shrieked, pulling the pillow away form her face. "What are you doing here? You could have been a mass murderer! You scared the living shit out of me!"

Sirius smirked and continued eating his cereal. "I'm a bachelor, so I have no food in my home per usual and I was hungry. I came here because you're actually responsible and buy edible items that Kreacher did not make. Anyway, it's your own fault for giving me a key."

Lily gave him a firm glare. "That's it. New rule: you are not allowed in my apartment if it is still dark outside."

"Okay, fine," he compromised. "But honestly, you're complaining about me being a mass murderer and all you brought for protection is a stupid pillow?"
