This isn't anything special. I wanted them to be in a situation that involved vodka, so I decided they needed a wedding.
This isn't the wedding though, it's like the dress shopping.
I hate doing scenes like this, because I'm horrible with fashion and description of clothing.
I also love Elizabeth, which is a character I made.
The next day was something odd, or at least Lily felt that way.
It was like being on a muggle reality show, seven strangers stuck together in one van.
Although at the moment they were getting ready to actually get in the van, Lily still felt the awkward scene before her.
Although Lily knew better than to be more affectionate with Remus in public, it was hard not to speak to him.
"Feeling just a tad bit out of place?" Remus asked from beside her.
They were setting in the lobby, waiting for Kali to pack the van.
Addy, James and Amy were helping, while Sirius was walking around aimlessly.
"Just. How about you?"
Remus shook his head. "I feel pretty okay."
Lily looked confused. "How?"
Remus shrugged. "I did a lot of thinking last night, and I found a relaxation method."
"Care to share it?"
Remus shook his head. "No, you'll have to find it on your own."
Lily smiled. "Oh come on, don't be mean."
Remus sighed. "Fine, I'll tell you..."
Lily urged him with a nudge."I need the relaxation."
"Love."
Lily tilted her head. "Explain."
Remus smiled and whispered: "I love you so much, I can't feel out of place, because when I'm with you, I feel right at home, even more so than my own actual home."
Lily felt her heart sink. "That was... The most... Corn Ball thing I've ever heard!" Lily said laughing.
Remus looked a bit disappointed. "I was kind of hoping for one of those TV movies, romantic kiss type of things," Remus was getting his words jumbled.
Lily bit her bottom lip. "I'm sorry Remus, but I mean, what did you expect?" Lily straightened her self to impersonate Remus. "I feel more at home than my actual home." Lily smiled.
Remus shrugged. "Well, I could have done it the 'James way'."
"Oh and what is the 'James way'?"
Remus chuckled. "Evans, I just hexed a second year, wanna go out with me?" Remus quickly pushed his hand through his hair and ruffled the back with a cocky grin.
Lily burst with laughter, it took a matter of five minutes before she supressed her giggles.
"Perfect, I've never seen anyone do James so perfect!"
"After five years of friendship, I can do Sirius and Peter."
"Anyone else," Lily was hinting herself.
"McGonagall?"
"Oh, I'd love to see that one! Please Remus?"
Remus smiled. "Oh, fine, quickly though." Remus stood up over Lily.
He gave himself a very business like voice and put it up a notch to resemble a woman. "Mr. Potter, Mr. Black, Mr. Lupin, and Mr. Pettigrew, You should all be ashamed of yourselves! Besmirching Godric Gryffindor's name! Must you really torture Filch?"
Lily was blue in the face from laughing. "Is that- is that really- what she tells you?"
Remus nodded. "Every time; with a bit of perverse language."
"Perverse?"
"Oh, not what you're thinking Ms. Dirty Mind, Just a bit of how our heads are up our ass's."
Lily giggled. "Well, that was fantastic."
"Thank, you."
James walked by just as Lily had said that, giving them a cold, distant 'I still don't want to see you guys.' Look.
Remus looked depressed that very moment.
"You know," Lily whispered. "They'll get over it- eventually."
Remus nodded. "But how long is- eventually, Lily?"
Lily shrugged. "Days, months, years-"
"Decades."
"-Or, yeah decades."
"Come on you lot!" Kali called from outside. "Van is packed!"
Lily stood up, Remus grabbing her hand and walking outside. Lily threw Remus' hand when she saw Adelina; Remus quickly stepped away from Lily as James and Sirius came from behind them.
----
Everyone was packed in the van and Kali was driving. Not more than ten minutes had gone by, it was eight in the morning, everyone was up and ready to get this vacation over with.
Hour 1
"Um, Adelina-"
"Shut up, Lily."
"Fine!"
Hour 5
"Where are we?"
"Only another- oh say three hours from CALIFORNIA!"
Sirius: "YES!"
Amy: "Oh yeah!"
Lily: "Thank Merlin's!"
Remus: "Great."
James: "Finally."
Adelina: "I'm so sad to see it over."
"YEAH RIGHT!" Everyone said in unison.
Hour 9
"We're here!" Shouted Lily as she jumped out of the car, they had stopped at a gas station. "We're finally here!"
Everyone was less excited, and more in a rush.
"So, Kali, when is that wedding?" Sirius asked.
"In about two hours."
"Can we go with you?"
"As long as you all behave."
"We will!"
"Seems fine with me."
"Where are we exactly, Kali?" Adelina asked stretching her arms out.
"La Quinta, California."
"I have no idea where that is." James said with a grin.
"I do!" Adelina said excitedly.
Lily felt odd as she watched James out his arm around Adelina and make her giggle by whispering in her ear. "Oh James stop!"
James pulled away talking to Sirius.
"Did you all bring formal clothing?"
"We didn't bring any clothing, Kali!" Remus informed her.
"Oh, right…"
"Can't we just buy some?" Lily asked.
"Yes, I guess I could find a bridal shop around here somewhere."
"Great, but I don't want to wear a dress." Sirius interjected.
"Well, you'll just need a nice jacket is all?"
--
An hour passed and Kali had found a bridal shop.
Lily, Adelina and Amy were all looking through the racks.
James, Remus and Sirius all setting in chairs in front of a large 330 mirror.
A very tall, skinny, tan woman, with waist length blonde hair, owned the shop.
"Hi, girls, how can I help you?" She asked the large group.
"We're in need of three nice dresses for these ladies, last minute wedding invites," Kali explained.
"Of course," The woman nodded. "I'm Elizabeth."
Elizabeth walked around Lily, Adelina and Amy as if making a decision.
"Your hair is gorgeous darling," Elizabeth told Lily. "Is that your natural color?"
"Yes!" Lily said offensively. Elizabeth smiled. "Very nice."
Elizabeth moved towards Adelina. "Hmm, how vivid!"
Moving on to Amy she just nodded. "Workable."
"I'll be back momentarily ladies," Elizabeth swept away picking random dresses off the racks.
For a moment, Adelina and Amy forgot all hate for Lily and gathered around.
"She's so odd!" Adelina whispered.
"Is that your real hair color?" Mimicked Amy.
"That was so rude!"
Lily heard a cough and turned around. "I have three fitting room waiting for you ladies."
The Boys POVS.
--Sirius---
I was setting in front of Amy's door, waiting for her, I heard a bunch of giggles and some movement from the door.
One of the doors burst open and Lily walked out in a silk pink dress. Yikes!
Doesn't that just match!
---Remus---
Lily walked out in a silk pink dress.
'Oops…'
It was a form fitting floor length dress, the shoulders slipped off to the sides slightly and Lily's hair looking bright as ever against it.
The other two doors flew open, Adelina and Amy walked out.
--James---
Adelina was a short knee length dress, it was purple with long sleeves that nearly drowned her.
Amy didn't even come out of her door just yelled out "Never!"
"What kind of sleeves are these?" Adelina asked waving her arms around trying to find her hand.
"That sleeve style I believe is called-"Elizabeth grabbed a large book and flipped through it quickly. "Wizards sleeves."
Everyone burst with laughter. "Yes, the style is just as odd as the name." Sighed Elizabeth. "We've heard it's huge in the U.K though, isn't it?"
James shook his head, "I'm sorry to say, that isn't wizard wear," James laughed. Elizabeth looked very confused.
"I didn't say wizard wear."
Everyone quickly hushed up, remembering they were in a muggle shop.
"Next dress!" Said Adelina quickly.
She and Lily rushed back into the fitting rooms.
---Remus---
When all three girls came out the second time, it was a for sure yes.
Lily walked out in a beautiful crème colored dress.
'Wow…'
Lily's long red hair fell perfectly around her shoulder as she put her hands on her hips.
It looked like a silk material, with a single pearl at the chest area.
It was flowing and matched her perfectly.
---James---
Adelina walked out looking like Adelina.
She was in a knee length, sleeveless, black dress. It was a shiny kind of black material.
It fit her slim figure perfectly. Her hair didn't clash, even with her blue streaks.
But Lily looked the best. 'Can't compete with perfection.'
----Sirius---
Thank the lord. Amy is done.
She looks quite nice really, a simple pink silk dress, I think it was the one Evans had on actually.
It looks nice on her- I want to get out of here!
Okay, first off I must explain the Wizard's sleeve joke.
I just seen Borat when I wrote this and anyone else whose seen it will remember the joke.
I couldn't help it, I just had to.
Didn't you love Elizabeth? She gave Lily the pick dress on purpose lol
I have a few more characters coming.
And when we hit Hogwarts we'll be there much longer, so we'll get to meet a lot more people. All my own characters, I like mine, don't you?
I can't wait to just get back, because honestly that is where ALL the REAL fun HAPPENS.
Okay, I updated alot quick, so PLEASE review my readers.
K, thanks, Love!
