Chapter 4 - Very Early Tuesday

Sirus shot up in the dark. The bedsheets were wet with sweat and it took him almost five minutes to understand what was going on around him.

"The girls have invited us over." He heard Arthur's voice say through the darkness. "Now get up and dressed."

Sirus didn't need to be told twice. His dream had been about him being unable to save Amy Wizmot's life. He wanted more than anything to see her alive and well.

CRACK !

Sirus jumped, then within seconds he was calmed. James had apperated to the bed. Holding his wand out with a small bright light at the end.

"Come along sirus," He said pulling out his trousers from the trunk.

"Moony's there, and Wormtail, and Amy and Longbottom. Come along."

CRACK !

And at the arrival of James, Arthur disapperated.

Sirus rubbed his eyes and swung his legs around the bed so quickly that he knocked James owl's cage over.

"But I can't apperate." Sirus said in a tired voice, "How am I supposed to get there ?"

And at that the shiny invisabily cloak landed on his lap.

"I'll meet you outside." James said and then...

CRACK !

***

The drive stones seemed to make an incredible loud noise in comparsion to the night's silence.

"Glad you could make it." Came Lily's voice from the door of the house.

"Amy requested you personally Sirus. Hasn't stopped talking about you."

Sirus blushed and entered first. But Lily stopped James going in.

"Where do you think you're going tiger ?" She asked him and James could tell she was drunk. "I've want you James."
