*knock...knock...knock*
"Urgh.."
Remus turned over and slowly opened his eyes. The bright morning light poured in from his bedroom window and blinded him. Rubbing his eyes, he proped himself up with his free hand. His head hurt, his body felt tired.
*Knock..Knock..Knock*
"Go Away!" Remus growled as he turned back over.
*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*
Leaping out of bed, Remus crossed the room in two strides. Grasping the bedroom door handle, he flung open the dark oak door.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT????"
His appearance was less than desirable. His light brown hair was a mess and dark circles formed under his hazal eyes.
"Good Morning to you too, Sleeping Beauty," Elizabeth stood outside on his bedroom threshold "It's about time you open up. I was about to bust in and check for life."
*SIGH* "Elizabeth, what do you want?"
"Well, considering it's almost NOON ANNNDDD you promised to come to Diagon Alley with me, I thought I'd come and remind you of this." Elizabeth smiled, walking into her brothers room and plopping herself on his bed.
Remus yawned running his hand through his messy hair.
"Oh yea, I forgot."
"Remus, you look horrible." Elizabeth said, eyeing her brother.
"Let's just say it's been a tough week." Remus answered.
"Tell me about it! My week hasn't been a walk in a field of diasies either. Grandma STILL thinks I'm 2. I spent the entire week eating mashed beets and getting cooed over." Elizabeth sighed.
Remus chuckled.
"It wasn't funny. Anyway, what made your week so bad?"
"Stuff."
"What kinda stuff."
"Stuff."
"Really bad stuff?"
"JUST STUFF, OK?!?"
Looking hurt, Elizabeth sat quietly on his bed.
"I'm sorry, Liz. I can't tell you."
"Oh..." Elizabeth quietly said.
"Anyway," Remus added, in attempt of lightening the mood "Diagon Alley. You, me, today."
Remus's attempt of cheering up his sister worked. A smile crossed her round baby face.
"Yep, dad already said that he would give you the money."
"Great," Remus said walking over to his closet, "Now, if you don't mind, I would like to get presentable."
Elizabeth stood up and walked out of the room, closing the door behind her.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
After recieving the money from his father and getting the typical, "DON'T DO ANYTHING I WOULDN'T DO" speech from thier mother, Remus and Elizabeth was free and walking the streets of Diagon Alley. Witches and wizards of all ages strolled along, occasionally stoping to look in the various shops that lined the street. As they continued on thier quest for school supplies, they ran into Remus's school friends, Sirius Black, James Potter, and James's girlfriend Lily.
"Sirius, James, Lily, I would like you to meet my little sister, Elizabeth." Remus said, placing his left arm around his sisters shoulders.
"So this is the famous Elizabeth. We've heard so much about you." Lily smiled, reaching her hand out to Elizabeth.
Smiling, Elizabeth shook her hand.
"My condolances, Elizabeth, for looking like your brother." Sirius put in, smirking.
Elizabeth laughed.
"hahaha..funny." Remus drawled.(--is that even a word?)
"It's only a joke, Remmie. Chill." Sirius said, light patting Remus's shoulder.
"Anyway, what brings you two to Diagon Alley?" James asked.
"I'm here with Elizabeth to get her first school supplies." Remus said, smiling at Elizabeth.
"Awe, isn't that heartwarming."
All five turned to see a tall, greasy haired guy standing with his arms across his chest.
"God, is there ever a place where your NOT stalking us?" Sirius excaberated.
"Now aren't we a nice guy, Remus. Taking your little sister out shopping. Maybe you can go a buy matching robes. Lord knows you need them"
Remus's ears started turning a bright red.
"At least I am a nice guy, unlike some people I know." Remus spat, glaring at the boy.
"Hey, leave him alone!"
Elizabeth steped out of her brothers embrace and appoarched Severus. Her lips were pursed and her eyebrows narrowed.
"Oh, sending your sister to fight for you," Severus stated, and bending down to come face to face with the girl he added "What are you going to do, hit me?"
It happened in a spilt second. Elizabeth brought her fist up and it met the side of Severus's nose with a crack. Staggering back, he tripped into a local produce stand, sending fresh vegetables into the air.
Remus's jaw droped. Sirius doubled over in laughter. James and Lily both tried to hide their laughter. Elizabeth just stood there.
"Come on Elizabeth, let's get out of here before we get arrested." Remus said, grabing his sisters wrist and dragging her through the swarming crowd.
Elizabeth looked over her shoulder to see Severus cursing as he picked green leaves out of his hair. Nobody insults her brother. NOBODY!
