"Ron?"
"What do you want, Ginny?"
"Do you know when Harry's coming back?"
"No, I don't why?"
"I just miss him."
"You still have that crush on him, don't you?"
Ginny sighed.
"Yeah, I thought I was over him, but apparently not."
"Don't worry, he'll be back soon. I promise."
~~~1974~~~
A week had passed and James, Sirius, Remus and Lily were busy with Sirius plan to make Harry remember the time he had spent here.
Harry was mostly keeping himself busy with reading. He had finished 'Hogwarts: A History', '101 Ways To Use Magic Herbs', 'Happy History', '1001 Different Potions' and so on.
At this moment he was reading 'The Dark Arts: Your Enemies Won't Know What Hit Them'.
"Hey Har."
"Hey Siri."
"The sun is sinning now, so could we take a picture?"
"I don't follow."
"Well, we've been taking pictures of our group ever since first year. We see you as part of our group, so you should be in it too."
"Well, if you put it that way. Race ya." Harry jumped up and before Sirius knew what was happening, Harry was sprinting through the portrait hole.
"No fair."
"All is fair in love and war."
Sirius began to sprint too, but he couldn't catch up with Harry.
~~~Outside~~~
Remus, James and Lily watched Harry and Sirius sprint out of the castle.
"I won. I won. I won." Harry sang when he reached them.
"Come on, let's take that picture before the weather changes." Remus said.
They moved to stand close to each other and then James waved his wand. Ten seconds later the picture was taken.
"Thanks, Harry." James said.
"Why would you want to thank me?"
"Now I have something to remember you by until you are born. To assure me it wasn't a dream. And anyway, you still saved not only your future, but mine too."
"And changed it." Harry smiled.
"Let's just hope it's for the best." Remus said.
"Go fish." Sirius piped.
"Bite me."
"My pleasure."
"Are you two too stupid to put more than two words in a sentence?"
"Yes, am./No!" Sirius and Remus said in unison.
The others laughed.
"Padfoot. I didn't know you had it in you." James joked.
"I know. Me stupid." Sirius answered.
"I dare you to keep talking like that until I leave." Harry laughed.
"We deal."
"I don't think he can keep that up for so long." Remus said.
"I think he can." James defended.
"You trust him enough to make a bet?"
"I most definitely do."
"Loser must pay twenty Gallions to the other."
"Deal."
"You guys are pathetic." Lily shook her head.
"But adorable, right?" James asked with puppy-dog eyes.
"Very adorable." Lily laughed and planted a kiss on his cheek.
"I love you." And he pulled Lily into a hug.
"James, go and lick my boots some other time, but we have to do something else, remember?" Lily said sweetly.
"The book, I know, but it was worth the try."
"Harry, riddle!" Sirius demanded.
"Yeah, I know one."
"Spill it."
"How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?" Harry said really fast.
"Whatta?" Sirius looked really stupid.
"I don't get it." Remus said, thinking hard.
"What's the answer?" Lily asked.
"A wood chuck could chuck as much wood as a wood chuck could chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood." James laughed.
"How did you know that?" Sirius looked at him surprised.
"My dad learned me that." James laughed even harder.
"Come on, let's get back to the castle." Remus said.
"Why?" Sirius asked annoyed.
"Just look that way." Remus pointed to the sky.
"Thunderclouds!" Sirius cried happily. "You think we'll get some thunder?"
"What's wrong with you?" Harry laughed.
"I love thunder!" Sirius danced around.
"I hate thunder." Lily shivered.
"What's wrong?" James asked.
"When I was about seven years old, Petunia and I were home alone in a thunderstorm and a tree outside our house got hit. I never got over it."
"Poor you." Sirius gave her a sympathetic look. "Thunder is cool."
"No way I'll get any sleep tonight if we get thunder." Lily said sadly.
They had started to walk to the castle.
"Won't you get any sleep when you're alone, or there's not way you'll get to sleep?" James whispered.
"What do you mean?" Lily whispered back.
"I'm willing to share my bed if it'll help you sleep." James whispered again.
"What!" Lily had problems to keep her voice down.
"Hey, I didn't mean sharing my bed as in doing stuff, just sleeping." James smiled.
"Thanks, I appreciate that. I'll think about your offer, but no funny stuff."
"I wouldn't dare. Like I said before, I don't want to lose you."
Lily smiled, he was so sweet to her, not rushing things.
~~~Two hours later, boys dorm~~~
Harry was down in the common room with Remus. They had drawn straws and Remus had drawn the shortest, so he had to keep Harry away from the dorm.
"That ones cute." Lily exclaimed.
Sirius, James and her were sitting on James' bed going, through pictures of the Marauders.
"We should put some pictures of you in there too, Lils." Sirius said.
"Why?" Lily asked.
"You're part of our group too." James kissed her.
"Well, ok, why not."
Sirius and James winked too each other when Lily couldn't see it.
"So, you got something for the rest of my plan, Prongsy?"
"I most definitely do, but I'm not gonna tell you. You'll just have to find out when he leaves." James answered. "I got help from this fare lady."
"Just make sure you can put it on a necklace." Sirius said.
"I will, it's finished already."
"Great, mine is almost finished too. I just have to do one more thing."
"Great, how about Remus?" Lily asked.
"Euh, he's been to Hogsmeade to get his part?" Sirius said questionably.
"Hogsmeade, nobody can come there anymore. He couldn't have gotten out of the castle unseen." Lily exclaimed.
James put his finger on his lips and then got out Harry's map.
"I solemnly swear I'm up to no good." He whispered.
The map opened and James pointed to the passages to Hogsmeade.
"Wow, how did you get such a detailed map of Hogwarts?" Lily asked.
Sirius beamed and pointed to the text.
"Ok, how did you find out all that stuff?"
"You're sharing our secret, Lils. You should be able to find out yourself." Sirius commented.
"It's because you're animagi, right?"
"You're brilliant." Sirius laughed.
"Book's finished." James said.
"You two wrap it up. I'll finish my present." Sirius smiled.
Sirius walked over to his bed, pulled some things out of the nightstand's drawer got on his bed and closed the curtains.
Lily laughed.
"You really aren't telling what you got, are you?"
"Nope, we like it better this way." James laughed.
Ten minutes later everything was wrapped up and put away carefully, when Remus entered.
"Euh, you better come with me."
"Something happened to Harry?" James jumped up and looked really worried.
"Not yet." Remus said as he walked over to his nightstand and got out a small package.
"He's leaving right?" Lily asked.
"Yeah." Remus sighed.
The Marauders looked really depressed.
"Come on." Sirius said sadly, he shrunk the big package and put it with the other in his pocket. James shrunk Harry's trunk and put it in his pocket with his package.
Down in the common room a sad Harry joined them. They walked to Dumbledore's office in silence. All teachers they met on their way said goodbye to Harry.
"Hot chocolate." Lily muttered and the gargoyle jumped aside.
Dumbledore was alone in his office. He sat behind his desk and looked up when the five of them came in.
"I see you wanted to say goodbye to Harry." He smiled.
"We always say goodbye to a friend." James said. "But could you just wait a few minutes before Harry leaves, we want to give him something?"
"Sure."
"You first James." Sirius said.
James got out the two small packages.
"Ok, this is your trunk." James smiled. "And you'll have to open this."
Harry looked surprised, but took the package and opened it. It contained a necklace with an emerald stag hanging on it.
"Wow, thanks."
"Now open mine." Remus said, giving Harry his present.
Harry opened it and found a piece of moon-rock.
"You can put it on the necklace too." Remus smiled.
"Here." Sirius gave Harry his present and gave Lily the enlarged package and whispered. "You give this."
Harry once again opened the package. This one contained a locket shaped like a dog's footprint.
"Open it." Sirius urged.
Harry opened it and saw the picture taken earlier that day. He smiled.
"Thanks."
"Here Harry, from all of us." Lily said.
Harry opened the last package and revealed a book full of pictures of all of them.
"It was unavoidable to keep Wrombut out of the book." Sirius whispered so Dumbledore didn't hear.
"It's ok." Harry sniggered.
"Well, Harry, time to go." Dumbledore stood up.
"Bye." Harry hugged everybody, tears stinging behind everybody's eyes.
"Ok, you wished yourself here, so you'll have to wish yourself back again." Dumbledore said.
Harry nodded.
"I'll never forget you." He said. "I wish I was back with my friends in my own time."
The bright light had returned and Harry was sucked away, tumbling and turning.
"I'm going back, back where I belonged." He though happily.
A/N: Next chapter is probably the last one. Hope you liked this. I'll update as soon as I can, promise. Thanks for reviewing all, especially Dutch Lily Flower. Please read her story too, it's really good.
PLEASE REVIEW.
Oh, and the next chapter will be a bit lame, just to take revenge on Rowling.
"What do you want, Ginny?"
"Do you know when Harry's coming back?"
"No, I don't why?"
"I just miss him."
"You still have that crush on him, don't you?"
Ginny sighed.
"Yeah, I thought I was over him, but apparently not."
"Don't worry, he'll be back soon. I promise."
