AFTERWORD:
"Hello, Mum?" It was Sirius, talking with his Mother on the phone again. He had called her as soon as he could. Or, rather, as soon as they had finished calling Lily. And Elizabeth. And the Chinese restaurant. Anyhow, he called her as soon as he could use the phone.
"Yes, er, I'm really terribly sorry that we can't make it for dinner. Yes, you see, James's friend broke his arm, you see? And He wanted to go to the hospital to make sure this friend was alright. And, Remus didn't want to go without James, he didn't want to be the only full-blood there, you know how it is, and then Peter wouldn't go without Remus, you know, I think he's rather scared of me, and I reckoned, 'What's the point of going alone?' So, Mum, you see, sorry we can't make it."
James, Remus, Peter, Lily, and Elizabeth were sitting around in the middle of the room, dully listening to Sirius's distant chatter. They were too full and happy to think much of it.
"Well," said James, throwing a set of chopsticks into an empty carton, "That was quite delicious if I do say so myself, which I do."
"Yes, it really was good," agreed Lily, giving him a kiss on the cheek. James grinned, and raised his eyebrows at Peter, who smirked, and put his arm around the girl beside him, Elizabeth. Remus smiled distantly at his friends, and suddenly, there was the sound of the phone hanging up.
Sirius came in, and plopped down on the couch beside Remus.
"Thanks for saving me so much food, you guys," he said sarcastically, picking up a two-thirds empty box of chow mien noodles. He picked up some chopsticks, and began stuffing his face.
"Lily and I have a surprise," said Elizabeth, glancing in the general direction of her friend. Sirius looked up. He had always been rather fond of surprises.
"Does it have anything to do with the mysterious white box you brought with you when you came?" Remus asked nonchalantly, not looking up from his book (One Dangerous Creature: An Autobiography of the Shrieking Vampire of Norway). Lily grinned at Remus, and then at Elizabeth.
"It does." The two walked into the kitchen, and returned a short moment later with their mysterious white box. Elizabeth was the first to speak.
"We've brought dessert!" And from the box, the girls produced a beautiful, lovely, perfect Cherry Pie.
The boys sat gaping. All of a sudden, Remus began to laugh. Peter joined in, and soon, all four were rolling around on the ground, clutching their sides and crying, unable to stop laughing.
And they didn't notice the two extremely disgruntled and befuddled girls.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Well. It's done. I'm sorry, all, but that's all there is, there isn't any more. It's been fun, though. Still, if anyone wants a copy of the recipe for cherry pie, leave your email in your review, or email me.
On another tangent, I'm deciding what to do for my next story. I have tons of ideas, but I can't seem to decide.
Anyhow, there are no more parts to this story. I'm sorry. I hope it was as fun for you as it was for me. And now I'm being redundant. G'bye.
Please be kind and leave a review. Have a nice day (or night).
