"LILY, OH MY GOD! IS THIS HARRY! OH HE'S ADORABLE, HE LOOKS JUST LIKE JAMES! HERE, LET ME HOLD HIM!" Amanda yelled for the rest of the air port to hear. I had just come on a plane from a trip to America, and my friends were all probably waiting to meet her 4 month old baby, harry, as none of them had met.

'Oh, great to see you too, Amanda." i replied sarcastically as I handed harry over to her. "come on, lily, everyone's waiting in the car." Amanda said as she turned away.

I took in my surroundings. It was so nice to be home. I hadn't seen my friends since before harry was born, and they had said that they had something special planned so that I could get away.

Lily, who was deep in thought at the moment, didn't seem to notice the man not too far away, who had heard every word said.

'that was lily?' Sirius thought to himself. 'it's been so long.' He hadn't seen her in so long. She looked really happy, the same as always, but yet different at the same time. She looked older, pretty, no doubt, but more mature. 'not to mention exaughsted. Or maybe it was the fact that she had a baby in her arms instead of a sketchbook. WAIT A MINUTE, SIRIUS! BABY! Run, Sirius, run.'

And with that, he apparated to James' house.

"HANNAH! SCARLET! IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU!" I said once we got to the parking garage. "You too lily! Oh, Harry is so cute!" Hannah squealed. "Yeah, he looks just like his daddy. Yes he does." Scarlet cooed to him.

"Well, lily, we've got a surprise for you." Amanda said, handing me 4 small slips of paper. They were tickets to a concert. "Cool, but if we're all going, then who's going to be watching Harry? And who are we going to see?" I said, flipping the tickets over to read the words "PASS TO THE AFTER PARTY". Underneath, in small print it said "to tiger, the marauders". (A/n yeah, isn't that the most original title for a band ever?)

I sighed. "Are you sure about this? What if I see James again? What'll he say? Oh, it's been forever." Scarlet nodded. " Well, we asked Mrs. Stephens, you know, Monica's mum, if she would baby sit for you, and she agreed, so, if you see jams, it won't matter because he won't find out about Harry. It'll be just like old times, back when we were in school. Please say you'll go? The tickets are non-refundable."

I thought about it for a minute. Mrs. Stephens was one of the nicest people you could ever meet, and she used to let us come over all the time when Monica was still alive, and, as long as I didn't have Harry with me, it wouldn't make a difference, right (A/n if any of you people know where I'm going with this, you'll know that the answer is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG)

"Well, it'll be fun, and I'll get to have some time with you guys without Harry, so, sure, I'll go." I told them. They all jumped for joy. "Ok, now that we've gotten past the screaming and yelling, why did they call the concert "to tiger"?" I asked. They all passed each other a look of forbidding, and I could tell what was coming next.

"Uuh, well, you know how they all used to call you tiger-lily, right?" Hannah asked. I nodded. "Well" Amanda continued. "They decided to get all of the songs together that had anything to do with you, and create a concert with the songs. It's supposed to be a big hit, and you don't even have to talk to them, we just thought it'd be fun for you to have a night to yourself where you can listen to the music and enjoy at least seeing your friends again. Please don't turn us down, some of these songs haven't been heard by anyone since we were in school. Think of all the fun you'll have and…"

"Amanda, I'm still going, even if the whole freakin' concert is about me, I still want to go out and have fun." I told them. Obviously, they had been expecting me to say that I wasn't going to go, and they were very wrong. I hadn't been to a concert since before Harry was born, before James and I broke up, before the marauders needed 12 body guards just to go out and get the daily prophet, before I had even graduated from Hogwarts, before I gave up my life, and it was the 7th year graduating celebration. I was going to this damn concert if it cost me my life.

"JAMES! OH JAMES" Sirius called out when he got to James' apartment. When no one answered, Sirius started to walk about the house. "Well, fine, be that way, I just thought you might like to know that lily's in town and…" but Sirius was interrupted by James, who was now out from hiding from Sirius and yelling at the top of his lungs. "WHAT? IF I FIND OUT THAT YOU'RE KIDDING, I'M GONNA KILL YOU! OH, do you think she'll see us? Do you think that she'll go to the concert?" after James said that, something inside his head clicked. "Do you think she'll come Sirius? If she does, she'll hear the music, and she'll realize how much I miss her, and how much I still love her, and maybe I'll get to see her again! Oh, wait, what if she looks different, and I don't recognize her? Then she'll think that I don't love her, and she'll leave again. Oh, that can't happen. Sirius what does she look like?" after that, James started ranting on about how exited he was and how everything had to be perfect.

'Should I tell him about the baby she had with her?' Sirius thought to himself. 'Nah, he's freaking out enough. Besides, the look on his face will be priceless.'

With that, Sirius sat down to watch James pace around the room and talk without a breath.
