Dear Maia;

Summers for me are the longest and loneliest part of the year, so I wouldn't miss your party for all the gold at Gringotts! It took a lot of convincing, but my parents have given me permission to come... which is great, because now I won't have to sneak out behind their backs. Aside from having Sirius, James, and Peter over once or twice a summer, I don't really get to see anyone outside of school.

My parents seem to be a tad over-protective and paranoid about me for some reason.*grin*

Remus

~P.S. Thank you for your thoughtfulness in setting the date.that's
pretty much the ONLY reason my folks are letting me come!

James;

I suppose by now you've gotten your invitation from Maia.I have a bit of a favour to ask. Next time you're talking to Lily, could you have her explain just what exactly a 'pool' party is??? I've already told Maia I'd be there.but if it involves some kind of dressing up in Muggle clothes, I'd rather not be the only one in robes!

.Maia mentioned that she and Lenore have purchased new 'two-piece suits' and the first time Lily introduced us to her father, wasn't he was wearing fancy Muggle clothes that Lily later called a two-piece suit? Oh. also ask Lily where one buys such clothes (dark trousers, a shirt, and a dark jacket that matches the trousers, right?).

Maybe it's just me, but that outfit didn't really look fun for dancing around in.especially outside in the middle of summer. Sometimes I think I'll never understand girls. Or Muggles, for that matter.

Write back as soon as you can!

Remus

Sirius;

Maia has asked me to make sure you come to her party.

Come. Maia says Len will be there.

Remus

Peter;

Do wolves howl at the moon??? You bet I'm going!

Hope to see you there too!

Remus

*~*~*~*~*~*

Remus;

Tsk, tsk. Sounds like someone has you all wrapped up around their wand. *smirk*

.*frown* that came out wrong. Nevermind.

I'll be there. but don't think I'm doing this for you, I've got reasons of my own to attend Maia's party... *smirk*

Sirius

*~*~*~*~*~*

Dear Maia;

Thank you for your invitation. Your party sounds like it will be a lot of fun, and I think I should be able to come. After all, what could possibly be more enticing than enjoying the company of scantily clad girls good friends?

Sirius

~P.S. Just out of curiosity, Len is coming for sure, right?

James;

Maia's having a pool party. does Lily now what kind of 'pool' it is? I still have that Muggle dictionary Lily gave me for Christmas last year and it says:

"1. Small shallow body of any liquid" - did Maia's parents give her a pet squid???.that would explain why she sounded so exited!

"2. a. Common supply of persons, vehicles, commodities, etc. for sharing by a group of people; b. group of persons sharing duties etc." - does this mean I should bring a supply of.something. to share with everyone??? Is this a party where we're all going to be working on something???

"3. Common fund, e.g. of profits of separate firms or of players' stakes in gambling." - this sounds like it has possibilities.!

"4. A game on a billiard table with usually 16 balls." - also sounds fun, although I have no clue what it means beyond the fact that it is a game.

Have Lily explain. then give her a great big kiss for me! *grin*

Dear Maia;

I just got your invitation. Thank you for inviting me. Summer has been good so far, and I'm really looking forward to coming to your party.

Peter

Dear Maia;

Thanks for inviting me. I'd be delighted to come. . . no flying hun? Oh well . I'll think of something to make a grand entrance.

My summers been good so far, except for not enough Lily, the Marauders, or pranks. . . but good. That's one of the reason you're party sounds great.

James

*** Urgent Post***

Dearest Lily;

Miss you like crazy! But then I always do. Have you gotten your invitation for Maia's Party? You are going right? I wouldn't go without you. Speaking of that . . .

I've been requested, by the guys, to ask you what exactly Maia means by "pool". What does she mean? We're a little confused. Do we need to go shopping or something?

Stop laughing this is serious! Remus really wants to make a good impression on her.

Has your dad forgiven me yet for climbing in your window, 2 weeks ago? You're not still grounded are you? If you are, I'll bust you out for the party. It's no party without my favourite girl.

Love James

Ps. If you could get back to us on that soon we'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks. Lots of hugs and kisses.

Oh James!

Of course I'm going. And no I'm not still grounded . . . but I don't think that my dad has forgiven you yet. He just needs a little more time . . . maybe some valium! It's not like we were doing anything!

Alright, Maia means a Summing Pool. That's like a cement lake in her back yard, with out the bugs, plants or fish in it. You following me? Hmmmm . . . think like a beach party! So there will be swimming, music, munchies (snacks), knowing Maia dancing that kind of thing.

Dress: Bathing suits. This will take to long to explain. I'll take you and the boys shopping. It'll be easier.

Forever yours;
Lily

P.s. I only laughed a little!

Dear Remus;

Lily just owled me back, she offered to take us shopping if you like. She said "bathing suits". Whatever! I trust that Lily knows. Anyway, Lily wrote that it was the kind of pool with water for swimming. So I don't think that it was the same thing as her dad was wearing.

Let me know if you want to go shopping with Lil and me.

James

Hey Sirus;

Lily just owled I back. She wrote that it was the kind of pool with water for swimming. Although I agree the gambling sounded kind of fun.

Lily offered to take us shopping if you like. Let me know if you want to go shopping with Lil and me.

Oh. by the way thanks loads for your romantic idea. Lily's dad found me . . . he was major pissed. Lily got grounded, and I don't think that he'll let me near his house again. Having said that. It was worth it! *evil grin*

James

Dear Peter;

Of course I'm going . . . Miss a chance to see Lily. Yeah Right! Speaking of seeing Lily. She invited us all to go shopping for clothes for the party. Are you interested?

James

~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~

James;

I'm not sure how I'm going to convince my parents to let me go. but definitely count me in! I'll need all the help I can get. (I've even been thinking about asking Sirius for that Muggle dictionary he's got.)

.So it's a pool, like a pond, or something? Hmmm. Ok. *grin*

By the way, are we all going to meet somewhere so we can show up at Maia's together?

Thanks for the reply.and thank Lily for me too (I'm sure you'll think of something suitable!).

Remus

*~*~*~*~*~*

James;

A pool for swimming in, you say? And she's inviting a lot of us from school? .I really hope you're thinking what I'm thinking then *grin*. The possibilities with this party are endless, my friend. *bigger grin*

.back to the point. you know what I think about shopping (especially with Lily! - no offence), but I think it might be a good idea in this case. Count me in!

And what's this about you getting caught by Lily's father??? Tsk, tsk. Sounds to me like Prongs is losing his touch. Does our fearless leader really need to be reminded that rule 1 of the Marauder's sacred code is: Never, never, never get caught. (what I wouldn't give to have seen that scene!!!)

By the way, thank Lily for her offer to help us for me, would you? I'd say another great, big kiss would do! (think of this as a second chance.!! *grin*)

Sirius

*~*~*~*~*~*

Dear James;

Sure I'll come with you guys! I've never been shopping for Muggle clothes before. I hadn't even thought of that!

Thanks,

Peter
