Chapter Five: Sleepovers and Cotton Candy Do NOT Mix

"Paging Sunshine!!!" The voice in over speaker called out loudly. "Paging Sunshine!!!"

Lily glanced at her two best friends. There was no doubt in her mind that she happened to be the Sunshine they were paging.

"Uh, guys? I think we'd better go find them…" Lily sighed, standing up.

Elle rolled her eyes but got up. Leila giggled.

The trio walked out of the theater and quickly spotted the three boys standing near the concessions stand. It was easy to see them because all had their arms FILLED with food.

"Woah… I never even imagined Muggle food could taste this good!!!" Sirius cried out when he saw them. He looked at Elle and said, "Have you even had a COKE before?!? It's almost as bloody delicious as butterbeer!"

Elle smiled and said, "Have you tried the Dr. Pepper?"

"THERE'S DIFFERENT KINDS!?!" Sirius yelled.

"Oh yes." Elle smiled.

"Wow!!!" Sirius ran over to the concessions stand again. "I want one of every type of… wait, Elle! What are they?!?"

Elle smiled. "Sodas, Sirius. Sodas."

"Ok! Yeah, one of every type of SODA!!!" He smiled at the girl working the cashier.

"Don't get out much, do you?" The girl smiled as she poured the drinks.

Sirius laughed.

"Well, thanks much but we've gotta run. Here's the money. Bye!" Lily called as she, Leila, and Elle pulled the three boys from the theater.

"Wow! That was bloody awesome!" James grinned.

"Let's go home." Leila said.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The phone rang in their Muggle home. Lily glanced at her friends and, with a sigh, picked up the phone.

"Hello?" She asked.

"Hey… Lily? This is Andromeda Tonks… you know, Sirius's cousin." The voice through the phone said.

"Oh… hey! What's up?"

"Not lots… I was talking to Dumbledore and he told me about the whole Muggle trip. Personally, I think he has some ulterior motive but whatever, right? Anyways, I was wondering if you guys wanted to come hang out at my place sometime soon… like Wednesday. We're gonna have some Muggle and magical people around too."

Lily grinned. "God, that'd be fantastic. Let me just tell the others." She placed a hand over the phone and spoke to her five friends. "You guys wanna go to Andromeda's later?"

"Med's on the phone? Tell her hell yeah." Sirius called out.

Lily uncovered the phone and said, "'Hell yeah', according to your lovely cousin."

"Yeah… he's a gag. But tell him he's gotta watch my little Nymphadora."

"Will do…"

"Well Lily, talk to you later! See you Wednesday!" Lily heard a click and she smiled.

"Siri, you're babysitting Wednesday." Lily said.

"What? For who?" Sirius said.

"Yeah? Who'd be crazy enough to trust this fool with a kid?" Elle added.

"Andromeda." Lily said smugly.

"Holy…" Sirius trailed off.

"Not that little…" Remus stammered.

"Woah…" James was speechless.

Nymphadora Tonks, the only daughter of Andromeda Tonks and her husband Ted, was a bright two year old witch who loved to bother her favorite cousin, Sirius,

Leila, Lily, and Elle laughed at the three boys who, in fear of a two year old, were reduced to incomprehensible phrases.

"Oh come on, she can't be THAT bad!" Leila laughed.

"You'll see." Remus replied darkly.

-----------------------------------------------------------

"So what do you guys wanna do?" Leila asked as she lay on the warmly carpeted floor in the Living Room.

"No clue." Lily replied, leaning over Elle's shoulder to read the newest issue of Teen Witch.

"Let's go skinny-dipping!" Sirius shouted.

"Let's not and say we didn't." Elle answered with a roll of her eyes.

"I have an odd craving for cotton candy." Lily said.

"Let's go to the Circus!" James yelled.

"How about we go to the Circus Maximus?" Elle suggested. "We can go tour Rome and then go get some of Lily's cotton candy."

"What's cotton candy?" Remus asked curiously.

"It's sugar." Leila replied.

"I say we go to the Circus Maximus and Rome and stuff." Lily grinned. "We can update our wardrobes while we're at it."

"Great… so that's where we'll go!" Elle smiled.

"Rome here we come!" James yelled.

-----------------------------------------------------------

"Wow… this thing is HUGE!" Leila exclaimed as she looked around in the Circus Maximus.

"Really now?" Elle added with a huge smile.

"It's gorgeous." Lily gazed around. She looked up at the dark sky and the twinkling stars.

James looked at Lily seeing her deep green eyes, filled with love for the beauty.

"It's so beautiful." She said softly.

She's so beautiful. James thought.

You're supposed to think that, Jamesie! You LOVE her!!! The voice inside his head said.

Well she is!

Did I say she wasn't? I'm just saying you HAVE to think that!

So… can you see her?

Can you?

Duh.

Well so can I, smart one.

Oh. I knew that.

She's got her red hair-

It's auburn.

Whatever. Anyways, it's down on her shoulders. And she's in a light blue shirt and jeans.

Yeah.

I have to say, I think Gabriella Paulina Witkowski looks better than Lily Catherine Evans.

No!!!! Lily is way hotter.

Is not.

Is so.

Is not!

Is so!

Oh shut up. You know Elle's hotter.

No, no, no! Lily is HOTTER THAN ELLE!

James hit his head over and over again. Sirius looked over at him with a grin.

"Ok Jamesie?" Sirius called out.

"Huh? Oh yeah… fine." James answered.

Lily looked over at James and Sirius with a grin. She leaned over and whispered in Elle's ear.

"Really?" Elle said excitedly.

Lily nodded her head.

Leila looked over at the two of them. "What?" She asked.

Elle looked over at Leila and whispered in her ear.

"No way!" Leila exclaimed.

"Yes!" Lily cried.

"Damn." Leila grinned.

"I know!" Lily said.

"Ok, let's get cotton candy!" Elle suggested.

"Yay!" Lily grinned.

The six went to the Cotton Candy Stand.

"I'd like pink cotton candy." Lily said to the person working.

She handed her a large pink cotton candy. Lily paid her and the six left quickly.

Apparating back to London was a cinch. Within ten minutes, they were back… with cotton candy.

"Guys, this gives me an idea…" James said with a smile.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Lily woke up early on Tuesday morning. She glanced over at her two best friends. Horrified, she turned to the mirror.

"OH MY GOD!" She screamed…
