Disclaimer: I own no one and nothing from the wonderful world of Harry Potter because that all belongs to the brilliant JK Rowling! I do, however, find Sirius Black entirely too wonderful!
Thank you everyone so, so much for all of your support on this story! I'm constantly amazed by all the love this story is receiving! Thank you to all of those who have reviewed and continue to do so, I really, really appreciate it, so thank you greatly! Thank you to those who have added this story to their alerts-I know you're all keeping an eye on it-and a big thanks to those who have added my story to your favorites, it really means a lot! I'd also like to extend my thanks to those who have added me to your favorite authors, that completely blows my mind, so thank you tons!
I wish I could do more to thank you!
I can't believe that Marauder Meets Girl is already at fifty-one chapters! I never expected it to go this far, but nevertheless, here it is! I have so many ideas floating around for what lies ahead for the Marauders and the women in their lives, so this story has plenty more in store for everyone! I have decided that I am going to make this story in to parts, so when I'm nearing the end of part one, I will tell everyone and then part two will begin immediately following the end of part one!
A lot of you have asked me if this story is going to follow the books and I'm going to give you the best answer I possibly can at this exact moment-yes and no. It will follow the books in some cases and not in others-I hope everyone just sticks with it long enough to see where it goes! I can't give you the exact answer of where things will run parallel, but I will have it figured out soon.
This is the chapter a lot of you have been waiting for-welcome baby Mason and baby Caspian! It feels like a short chapter but I just wanted to introduce them for right now!
I also intend for the next couple of chapter to speed by, there is a lot to get to in such short time-but, if all goes how I want it to, this part should end between chapters 60-65, I'm not entirely sure!
So here is chapter 51! I'm still amazed at how far this story has gone and will continue to go!
I hope you all like the chapter! Please excuse any errors, I'm sure there are plenty this chapter because I barely edited!
Thanks again!

Chapter Fifty-One
June seventeenth, was like any other day. I woke up to Sirius sprinkling light kisses across my neck, and showered like normal. I walked downstairs, slowly might I add, and ate breakfast with Sirius, Remus, James, and Lily-who had decided to join us for the day. Since it was Sunday, we had kept up our tradition of having the Potters and our friends over for dinner later that night. I was thirty-five weeks along, nearing the end of my pregnancy most likely and I was certainly feeling it. I was completely lethargic, never wanting to do anything except sleep and use the loo. My mood was foul most of the time, and I was only happy when I was eating. Thirty pounds. I had gained thirty bloody pounds. But nevertheless, I was nearing the end of my thirty-fifth week, and it felt like any other day.
"What time are your parents coming over?" I asked James while shoveling pancakes in to my mouth.
He swallowed down some pumpkin juice. "I think they said around six since you should be sleeping more these days."
Lily frowned. "I guess I'm not winning the bet. In two days it will be thirty-six weeks. Bummer."
Sirius grinned wickedly. "Praise, Merlin."
She threw a piece of toast at him.
I rolled my eyes. "Quit it." My stomach gurgled and I frowned and looked down at it. "How can you possibly be hungry? We just downed three whole pancakes-three!"
Sirius chuckled, serving me another one. "Eat."
I scrunched my nose while taking a bite of the fluffy flapjack.
Remus looked over at me. "Elaine, you haven't had any more nightmares, have you?"
I shook my head. "That potion I've been taking has been knocking me out cold."
Remus scratched his head. "That's strange, I was hearing stomping around upstairs last night around four or five."
Sirius coughed. "That was me. I was walking around, trying to think. I didn't realize I was probably dragging my feet, sorry."
Remus shrugged. "Doesn't matter."
I raised an eyebrow at my husband. "Why were you trying to think at four in the morning?"
He sighed. "I was trying to figure out a good bet outcome for the boss over here. Don't worry though, I definitely got one."
Lily scowled at him.
I bit in to my fourth pancake. "Merlin help my children since they have to deal with you two."
After breakfast, I went to the living room and lied down on the couch, propping my feet up on the edge.
Sirius shuffled in, sitting down at my feet as I lifted them and placed them on to his lap. "How are you feeling?"
I sighed, leaning back in to the couch more. "Really, really pregnant. When do you think they're coming?"
He shrugged. "It could be any time now. I'll be mad if I lose the bet though, I can't lie. Especially if the boss wins, that will drive me nuts."
I laughed. "Will you ever call her Lily?"
He smiled. "May be one day."
I yawned. "How am I even tired right now?"
He pressed a ticklish kiss to my ankle. "Just sleep, Lovely. I suspect we won't be getting much when they decided to make an appearance."
Later that evening, the Potters had arrived for dinner, and the day had passed by like any other, nothing strange or out of the ordinary happening. You can imagine my surprise though, when water began to trickle down my leg in the middle of our meal.
My eyes widened. "I think I just wet my pants...is my bladder really that messed up from this pregnancy? Merlin's beard."
Lily began to cough violently on the bite she had just taken.
Mrs. Potter stood immediately, coming over to my side.
Zoe grabbed on to Remus.
I raised an eyebrow at the people around me. "Um, what?"
Sirius jumped out of his seat, running upstairs.
"What the f-"
"Elaine!" Mr. Potter scolded.
I sighed. "Sor-OW!" A cramp, stronger than anything I had ever felt burst through my back, slicing through to my stomach.
Sirius was back down the stairs, in the kitchen, in seconds.
Mrs. Potter grabbed my hand. "Dear, that was your water breaking."
My eyes widened once more as I stood hurriedly, another cramp perforating throughout me. "OW! They're coming in fast-what? A minute apart? I'm going in to labor!"
Sirius rushed to my side, grabbing a hold of my other hand.
Without warning, we apparated to St. Mungo's.
I was in the lobby, my friends surrounding me, as I held on to my stomach that began to cramp up once more. Holy shit that hurt.
Sirius handed me over to Mrs. Potter and Lily while he ran over to the front desk.
Before I knew it, I was being rushed in to room, mediwizards and healers crowding around me in the room. I grabbed a hold of Sirius's hand, mentally preparing myself for what was to come.
After five hours of intense labor, I woke up in a bright white room, my lower half relatively sore. I opened my eyes, looking around me, seeing that Sirius was on a couch next to my bed, curled up with a tiny bundle wrapped in his arms.
I smiled. "Psst."
He looked over at me, grinning from ear-to-ear. "Hey. How do you feel?" His voice was barely a whisper.
I shifted around a little. "Pretty sore. Who do you have there?"
He stood up, coming over to where I was, and handing me the little boy he had been holding. "That's Mason. He's really quiet. Nothing like Caspian."
I looked down at the gorgeous little boy in my arms, tears welling in my eyes. "He's so beautiful."
Sirius smiled, going over to pick up Caspian who was in the clear bassinet on the other side of my bed. "They both are. It's scary how identical they are. But, they're really, really different."
"Where is everyone?"
Sirius half-shrugged. "Lily left a little bit ago with James, but promised to be back tomorrow morning. Remus and Zoe went home about an hour ago to take care of the house, and Mr. and Mrs. Potter said they'd be back tomorrow morning too. You can leave tomorrow night, I think."
I nodded. "That's good. Wow, he is really quiet."
Sirius chuckled as Caspian stirred in his arms. "We haven't really talked about it, but, do you plan on breastfeeding?"
I shuddered at the thought. "Ew, no."
Sirius laughed and grabbed a bottle of milk that had been sitting in the crib.
"I can't believe they're here."
"I can't believe Lily won the bet."
I grinned. "What does she get exactly?"
He sighed. "I have to call her Lily from now on."
I laughed. "That's appropriate I suppose. What did you get if you won?"
He smiled and then frowned. "She would have to stay away from you and the kids for one week so I could have peace."
I rolled my eyes. "You're ridiculous."
Mason stirred in his sleep, a ghost of a smile appearing on his tiny wrinkled lips before it disappeared.
"They're really cute. I'm glad we can keep them."
He laughed once more. "They're our children, Elaine, not puppies."
"When did Mason have his last bottle?"
Sirius gave a look at his pocket watch. "Half an hour ago. Sleep, lovely. I've got Cas and he'll probably sleep now anyways."
I gave him a lazy smile, tucking Mason in to the crib that was by my bed, making sure he was still asleep after I had set him down. "Deal. Night, Booger, I love you."
Sirius winked, burping Caspian. "Love you more."
The next morning, I woke up to a baby crying loudly. I sat up in the bed quickly, picking up Caspian who was screaming. He instantly calmed down.
Sirius was currently feeding Mason who looked happy as a clam.
My eyes narrowed. "Why do you get the quiet baby?"
He laughed. "Because, I've had to deal with a pregnant you for almost nine months. I deserve the quiet baby."
I rolled my eyes, kissing Caspian on the top of his little head. "I wasn't that bad."
He snorted. "That."
I scrunched my nose. "They weighed seven pounds, right?"
Sirius smiled down at Mason who was already going back to sleep. "Mason was seven pounds, four ounces, and Caspian was eight pounds even."
"So that means, I have to lose about fifteen pounds to get back down to my normal weight."
Sirius made a face. "Can I be honest with you?"
I bit my lip. "Yes, of course."
"I like you with a little extra meat on your bones."
I smiled a little. "You don't want me to lose the baby weight?"
He sighed. "I want you to be happy and healthy. How about that?"
I smiled more pronounced this time. "Okay, that works...but I need to lose a little bit. I want to fit in to my leather jacket once more."
He snorted.
There was a light knocking on our door and in walked Lily, James, and Mr. and Mrs. Potter.
Lily was at my side in seconds, taking Caspian out of my arms and cuddling up to him. "Gosh he's adorable. So's Mason. James and I will babysit whenever you want."
James's eyes widened.
Sirius clapped James on the back after handing Mason to Mrs. Potter. "Thanks, mate! We really appreciate it! How about next-"
I cut him off. "Sirius, I think you're scaring him."
Mr. and Mrs. Potter laughed while they sat down on the sofa by my bed.
"How are you feeling dear?" Mrs. Potter asked me.
"I'm okay. A little sore."
Mrs. Potter nodded. "You're going to feel like that for the first few days. How did they sleep last night?"
Sirius answered this time. "Pretty well. Mas slept for six hours straight-Cas on the other hand..."
James chuckled. "He's more like you then?"
Sirius rolled his eyes. "May be."
I laughed. "Great."
Remus and Zoe joined in on the fun about an hour later, melting over my boys who were ridiculously cute. It was funny how Zoe and Lily fawned over Mason and Caspian, while Remus and James looked at them like they were from another planet-that is, until I forced them to hold each of them. They were instant mush.
I was proud of my little men, winning over hearts and they were barely one day old.
Finally, the time came for us to go home. It was just me and Sirius in the room with the boys, while one of the mediwizards checked over me one last time.
I was standing there awkwardly, itching to just leave. "Can we please leave? I can't wait to just be home."
The mediwizard, an elderly woman, laughed lightly. "Okay, you're all good dearie. One last thing, though. You and your husband do know that you two shouldn't have sex for at least another month, right?"
Sirius groaned loudly. "Shouldn't or can't?"
The elderly mediwizard smiled softly. "Well, you can, but, if you don't want to get pregnant right away, than you shouldn't."
I gave my husband a very serious look. "We are not having sex for a month, do you understand?"
He sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. "Fine."
I walked over to him, kissing his jaw. "Let's go home."
Sirius took hold of my hand, Caspian in his little car seat on his other arm, while I held on tightly to Mason in his car seat.
We arrived home in mere seconds, the apparition waking up the boys, Caspian crying and Mason just stirring around. We set them down in the kitchen, lifting each of them out of their seats.
"It's okay, buddy. It's okay," Sirius whispered to Caspian, cradling him to his chest as he stopped crying instantaneously.
I smiled. "I think you and I have chosen sides already, is that terrible?"
He laughed. "Team Dad and Cas versus Team Mum and Mas? I kind of like it. You're on, Lovely."
I grinned, kissing the top of Mason's soft head. "Say 'bring it on, Daddy,'" I replied, speaking in baby talk to Mason.
Sirius chuckled. "Do we honestly have to wait four weeks to have sex?"
I nodded. "I do not want to be pregnant again. I just gave birth to twins."
He frowned. "But we've already been out of business for six weeks! Four more makes it ten! Ten weeks, Elaine! I have had to resort to other means."
I laughed. "Are you trying to tell me you've been relieving tension in other ways?"
He scowled. "Yes, unfortunately."
I smirked. "And what exactly do you think of when you're-er-getting off?"
He smiled, no shame whatsoever. "You, obviously."
I blushed. "Should I say thank you? Is that the proper sentiment?"
He chuckled once more. "Thank you should suffice."
"Er, thanks."
He walked over to me and kissed my cheek. "In one month it will be our one year anniversary of being married, right? Lily and James are babysitting that weekend then."
I rolled my eyes. "Okay that's fine."
That night, we put Mason and Caspian down to sleep and walked upstairs to our room. I threw myself down on to the bed, relieved that I actually could do that now that my belly wasn't inflated to ridiculous proportions.
Sirius crawled over to me, straddling my waist and kissing me deeply, his body pressing in to mine.
I kissed back forcefully, the first time I had done so in a very long time. "You know we can't have sex, right?"
He shut me up by kissing me.
I could feel that familiar sensation of my blood boiling beneath my skin as the temperature in the room seemed to rise significantly. I moaned against his lips, the sound spilling in to his mouth.
He grinned against my lips, pulling my shirt over my head.
"Sirius-we-can't," I breathed in between kisses.
He groaned, going to kiss the skin of my neck.
I could feel his length pressed up against my inner thigh, and I could feel myself beginning to mold against him. I flipped us over so that I was now straddling him, grinding my hips against his. "We-can't-have-sex."
He lifted his hips against mine.
A funny sound escaped my lips as I reached down and kissed him once more.
"There are other ways, you know..."
I grinned. "We are so insatiable."
Just as I went to unbuckle his pants, I could hear a baby crying downstairs.
He groaned loudly, throwing his head back against the pillow. "You get the baby while I fix my problem."
I laughed, hopping off of him and then going downstairs to the boys' room.
The one crying was obviously Caspian, I had already guessed that before I walked in the room, but when I saw him crying my suspicions had been confirmed. Mason was glancing in his direction, looking at his younger brother-by four whole minutes!-strangely.
I lifted Caspian, expecting him to stop crying when I lifted him but that didn't happen. Instead, I had to wait for ten minutes until Sirius came downstairs to their room, taking Caspian out of my arms and he stopped crying.
I frowned. "I know it's Team Dad and Cas, but that is really unfair!"
Sirius laughed. "That's what you get for not finishing a job."
I rolled my eyes, my line of vision traveling to the seam of his pants. "You seem to have taken care of that problem pretty well if I do say so myself."
He made a face. "You'd be surprised how much he misses your touch."
I blushed, the heat creeping up my neck and cheeks.
He grinned. "I love it when you blush."
I stuck my tongue out at him.
He chuckled. "You know that tongue can be more useful when-"
I cut him off immediately. "Sirius!" I sat down in the rocking chair that was in the corner of Mason's side while Sirius sat in the one opposite of me.
He rolled his eyes dramatically, throwing his head back and everything. "It's not like they understand what we're saying."
"What if they have repressed memories of their mother and father talking about sex in front of them when they were infants?"
He burst out laughing, startling Caspian who looked at him funnily. "Sorry little guy, your mother is losing her mind."
I tossed Mason's rag at him.
He blew me a kiss. This was my life now and I was more than okay with that.
