When the trip to Hogsmeade was over, the Marauders finally found themselves
together again in the Gryffindor Common Room.
"Congratulations, mate." Sirius patted James on the back. "We now know just what the L.E. all over your papers stands for." He sat down in the same chair he always sat in. The biggest, cushiest one.
"We do? What does it stand for?" Peter asked, sitting on the floor in front of the gigantic fireplace.
"Lily Evans." Sirius informed him, pretending to swoon over the name. Lupin, who had been sitting before all of them were writing a note, with a befuddled expression on his face.
"Padfoot," He began. "What is wrong with this pen you gave me?" He shook it up and down. James walked over to him to see what he was writing, but all he could see was:
ear Mum,
r are a er e e eae a.
Sirius shrugged. "I dunno, I just bought it today. Maybe I should take it back." James laughed at the expression that had became Remus's face.
"You git." He said as he crumpled the paper. "I should have known."
"Yes, you should've. Especially since we've been friends for how many bloody years." He stuck out his tongue at the werewolf.
"That was childish." Lupin said in return. "I'll never understand what Aria Bellus sees in you."
Sirius's face went pale. "Don't talk about that." He looked at James, who had a grim look of satisfaction on his face. He knew all to well of the short vividly a blue-eyed girl that had the biggest crush on Sirius out of the many girls in Hogwarts.
"What's wrong Padfoot? Don't want everyone to know what the A.B.'s all over your papers mean?" James said menacingly, sitting in a chair next to him.
Sirius thought of a way to turn the conversation around. "Well, I can't help it if I am terribly good looking and have a wicked sense of humor."
James rolled his eyes, "Yeah, it's wicked all right." Even though Sirius's friends saw his humor as cruel at some points, it was true that girls gushed over him.
"Wait. Sirius fancies Aria?" Peter was obviously deliriously tired or just simply stupid.
"You dunderhead!" Sirius exclaimed while throwing his wand at him. "I do not fancy Aria Bellus!"
Peter ducked, the wand skimmed his blonde hair. "Sorry, I'm tired."
James laughed. "I never thought she fancied me back . . . "
"What?" Lupin asked, being the only one that heard him.
"What?" James asked back.
Remus rolled his eyes. "You said she fancied you."
James blushed. He'd been doing a lot of that lately. "Oh. Well I must've been day dreaming."
"Oh yes, that's likely. You weren't thinking about Lily Evans out loud." Sirius stared him down. "So what is it with you two?"
"Sirius . . . " James began. "I don't know. She said Snivellus was acting weird. Came over to me to ask where to send your owl. We just started to talk." He shrugged. "I don't know if she fancies me-"
"But you fancy her." Peter finished.
"Now you're awake." Sirius commended him.
James shot him a look. "No, I don't fancy her-"
"You were holding her hand . . . " Lupin mumbled.
"She held mine-"
"Face it, Prongs. You and Evans are meant to be." Sirius stood up regally. "Can I be the best man at the wedding?"
"Then what am I supposed to be?" Lupin asked.
"The ring bearer, now let me talk." Sirius continued. "And Wormtail can be the flower girl."
The young man was sprawled out in front of the fireplace like a fat dog, fast asleep.
"I don't want to be the ring bearer. Besides, I thought the best man did that too." Remus protested.
"Well then what do you want to be then?" Sirius was obviously perturbed that Remus kept interrupting his wedding plans.
"Best man." He stated very dignified.
"You can't! Get it through your thick skull! I am the best man!"
Remus sighed with thought. "Lets compromise, I'll be the best man and you can be the god father."
"The god father?" Sirius was confused. When was there a god father in a wedding?
"Of the kid. Now who's got the thick skull?"
"I'll sign to that! Only means the kid will like me more!"
"Oh I give up, you can be the god father and the best man-"
"STOP!" James shouted. "What is it with you two? Me and Evans are not going to get married. And the last thing I want is a baby with her."
"Oh I believe that." Sirius said, kicking off his shoes. "So she said Snivellus was acting weird, huh? Well then, lets pull a prank on him." Remus rolled his eyes. "I mean, since OWLs are over and all." Sirius added.
"Yes, since OWLs are over." Suddenly Lupin looked rather happy. "It would be nice to play a good prank. Especially on Snivellus."
A/N: Yay! Romance fluffy stuff! This is the end of this part. It is gonna be a three part story. Yeah, I am pretty sure...sorry this chapter was short...Ok, um...I hate author's notes....
