"Now are you sure you want to go out?" James asked Lily, it had been two weeks since they had narrowly escaped death at the hands of Lord Voldemort.

"Yes James, I can look after my self," Lily said, "don't worry about me." She gave him a soft kiss on the lips.

"Come on if we don't go soon all the shops will be shut and you'll have to get married in an old bin liner!" Emma joked, Lily, Emma, jess and Laura were going into muggle London to by Lily's wedding dress and bridesmaids dresses.

"I love you," James said to her as he watched her leave.

"God you're turning into a right sissy," Sirius said.

"Shut up," James said hitting Sirius over the head.

The girls entered the first shop of the day, it looked from the outside like it would be very expensive, but that didn't matter as James' parents had given them quite a substantial amount of money to spend.

They sifted through all the dresses, Lily never knew there were so any different shades of white.

"This ones nice," Laura said holding up a dress.

"Urgh no," Emma said a little loudly and the shop assistant looked up at them scowling.

"What's wrong with it?" Laura asked.

"It has long sleeves," Emma said simply.

"I think it's elegant," Laura said putting it back on the rack.

"Well you wear it for your wedding then." Emma said.

"Stop fighting with each other," Jess said, "you'll get us kicked out."

They trawled through countless shops, they had found the perfect bridesmaids dresses, a rich dark green with silver diamantes dotted all over, but so far there was no sign of the perfect wedding dress.

"We'll have to make this the last shop, they all close at six." Jess said checking her watch as they stood outside another shop window looking at the dresses.

They entered it, the only person in there was a kind looking middle aged woman sitting behind the till.

"Hello ladies," she said smiling her face lined with wrinkles. "I'm Maria, now which one of you is getting married."

"That's me," Lily said shaking the woman's hand.

"Right, and do you know what sort of dress you're looking for?" Maria asked.

"Not really, this is about the hundredth shop we've been in." Lily said helplessly.

"I see, well stand up here and let be loo at you," she put Lily on a small raised platform and stood back and examined her.

After a few minuets she spoke, "I think I have something that will suit you," she said.

She disappeared into racks of dresses and reappeared with one draped over her arms.

"Try this," she said holding up the dress, it was stunning, the top was strapless and covered with glittering diamonds (not real ones), and the skirt had a long slit down the side through which you could see another layer of material which was also covered I diamonds (again not real ones).

"It's beautiful," Lily said.

"Yeah, much better then the one I picked out," Laura said.

"Go and try it on dear," Maria said.

Lily disappeared off to put the dress on and when she came out everyone gasped.

"You look stunning," Jess said.

"I think I'm going to cry," Emma said, who had been having constant mood swings since she had become pregnant.

"This is the on," Lily said, "I'll take it."

Maria smiled, "it looks like it was made for you." She said.

Remus sat on his bed, his head ached, it was a full moon tonight and he felt worse then usual. On top of that he still hadn't worked out what he was going to do about Jess, he hadn't seen her since New Years Eve.

He assumed since she hadn't tried to contact him she just wanted to be friends, but he couldn't get into to all that now.

He laughter coming from the living room, he got off his bed and went to see who was in there.

"Mooney mate, ready for a midnight adventure?" Sirius asked.

"To be honest with you at the moment I'd rather curl up and die." Remus said.

James patted him on the back, "come on we thought we'd go up to the shrieking shack, it'll be just like old times, except without Peter, he said he had to work late."

Remus just nodded, "what does he do at work that keeps him so busy?" Remus asked.

"I don't know, probably just stares at Jess all day, you know what he's like." Sirius said, "I don't know why he doesn't just asked her out already."

"Because he knows she'll say know," James said, "in case you hadn't noticed he isn't as irritable as me, or you for that matter."

"Well you never know she might say yes." Sirius said.

Remus sat on one of the sofas, now he felt guilty, he had kissed Jess and forgotten that Wormtail had been in love with her for nearly his whole life.

"I'm going to bed, try and get some sleep before tonight." Remus said, "wake me up before it gets completely dark."

Next chapter is going to be James and Lily's wedding, I hope you enjoyed this one even though it's pretty short.
