A/n: I tried typing this chapter up at my grandmother's house, but the
power went out because of a thunderstorm and then I discovered that she
didn't have spell check.shudders.it was horrible, cuz I know I was spelling
things wrong, but I can't tell what is wrong with the spelling. This would
have been posted a little earlier in the day, but the Internet connection
started to act up because of a storm coming.

Disclaimer: If I owned HP I wouldn't be writing fanfics.wait, yes, I would, but they would be much better than this.
Questions: Can anyone recommend a good HP fic, that isn't Severitus' A Fathers Sin? Should I get a beta for this, or is it okay as is?
Remus was outside, sitting beneath an elm tree on the hospital grounds. He was waiting for Sirius to arrive, well that was his cover story. If Remus felt like being truthful, he would have admitted he didn't want to go inside. He didn't want to see Severus so happy with someone else, even if she was a fellow marauder.
Remus could hear the sounds of a motorcycle in the distance. He knew it was probably Sirius, as this hospital was in the middle of a magical community. Not two minutes later, Sirius appeared in Remus' line of sight.
"'Ello, Moony, I see you were waiting for me, but then again, who wouldn't wait for the wonderful, dashing, and charming Sirius Black," said Sirius with a roguish grin.
Remus grinned, "Oh, I don't know. Maybe everyone with a sense of self- preservation or one-forth of a mind. In fact, just about everyone except for James."
"You wound me, Moony, you really wound me," said Sirius while clutching his hands to his chest.
"Padfoot, you are an idiot!" said Moony in frustration.
Padfoot replied, "Just for that, I won't tell you my plan to get Lily and Severus and James pissed off at us."
Moony suddenly grinned at Padfoot, "Do tell paddy, what do we have to do?"
Padfoot grinned, "Well, first I change into padfoot, and then you pretend to be blind. I have a leash that you can clip onto my collar, and I'll take you to Lily. I wanna see how long it takes for the nurses to notice that you're not really blind."
Remus' grin turned evil, "Okay, I'm in, but why do you have a collar and a leash?" Sirius didn't answer, but his face was turning bright red before he changed to padfoot with a pop.
Remus stood and walked over to Sirius bike, the black bitch, and opened the storage compartment. He found the leash, which was crimson red, and the collar, which was a jet-black color with metal studs around it. As soon as he picked up both, he walked over to Padfoot and placed them on the dog. Before entering the hospital, he placed an invisibility charm on the bike, as it was still illegal to charm muggle objects.
Remus picked up the leash and put on a pair of sunglasses he had just transfigured from a rock. With a simple charm, he made them a light blue. He followed Padfoot into the building, where the receptionist tried to make him leave Paddy behind, after he had asked for a pass to the maternity ward. She had noticed Paddy as he had started to walk away.
"I would be glad to leave him outside, but I can't because otherwise I wouldn't be able to get around. I'm blind you see," said the werewolf.
"Oh, I'm so sorry," said the receptionist, "Go in, the maternity ward is that way. She said and then gave very careful directions to the extremely brave blind man.
They were nearly to the hallway where Lily's room was located when a security guard recognized Remus.
"Hey, you, stop where you are. That dog isn't allowed in here, and don't you dare pretend that you are blind," shouted Brutus the security guard.
"Well, Paddy, it looks like the jig is up, so run," shouted Remus.
The man and the dog burst into Lily's room, and then the dog changed back into Sirius. Both were laughing so hard they had tears rolling down their cheeks.
James spoke, "So I guess you two are the reason the security guards and nurses are looking for a blind man and his see-ing eye dog? Wait, don't answer that, we all know it's the truth. Sirius, where's Peter?"
''Peter has food poisoning.he tried to eat his own cooking," replied Sirius. "He should be feeling well enough to visit in a day or so."
Lily, who had been staring at Harry, spoke " Sirius, James, How would you two like to be Harry's godfathers? Remus, how would you like to be godmother?
Remus looked disgruntled, "Godmother, why can't I be a godfather? Do I look like a girl to you?
Lily replied, ''Remus, you would also be godfather, but then Harry wouldn't have a godmother and you wouldn't want that would you? Oh, and to answer your other question, yes, you do look like a girl.
Severus started to laugh at the expression on Remus' face. Then he pulled out a wand and started to mutter some charms. The others looked at Severus confused, they didn't know what Severus had done. It could have been anything from a delayed hair coloring charm to conjuring up some lilies for Lily. They didn't have long to wait to find out. The others soon heard shrieks of rage coming from the searchers in the hallway.
James was the first to respond, "I can't believe you did that little brother. I hope the nurses kick you out for that."
"They won't James, because I used your wand," replied Severus with a smirk.
Moony laughed, "No wonder the sorting hat almost put you in Slytherin, Severus."
No one else got the chance to respond as the nurses had run into Lily's room. They looked at the 'blind' man and the man with sapphire blue eyes with obvious rage. James and remus both took a step back from the sheer power of the anger in the nurses eyes.
