Drunkeness and a DilEmma.


James was distraught; he couldn't believe that Ellie or Lily or whoever she was would lie to him. Once again, she had broken his heart. He hated her, for everything; making him fall in love with her again, and then breaking his heart.
James needed a drink, something that would help him to forget what had just happened. So he went to the Hog's Head, where he found Sirius. While he drank almost four fire whiskeys he told Sirius what had happened.

"And then poof she yells 'abra cadabra bumdumba kazoo!' and I jump into a tree and went for a swim, yes I did!' he said stupidly, he was obviously drunk as a skunk.

"James, I don't think that's true." Sirius said calmly

"It was I saws it wif me own eyeses I did!"

"James, you're drunk and depressed, I think you should go home."

"Yesh, I vone home." James said loudly and then got up, stumbled and knocked into someone.

"Sorry! I'm James with an 'S' on the end!" he sung.

"That's ok, I'm Emma." She laughed.

"Bye bye Miss DilEmma!" he yelled as he fell over and then crawled out the door.

"You know Paddy, like that girl, I do." He said as he got up off the floor.

"Yeah, James you said like ten words to her."

"No, a fifteen minute conversation we had!" he said.

"James stop talking like Yoda."

"Speaking like Yoda I am not." James proclaimed

"Whatever."

"Footy, a girlfriend you need."

"Footy?"

"The end of your nickname."

"Ok, James, you are completely smashed."

"Smashed I am not, Siri my friend!"

This was the last straw for Sirius.

"JAMES, IF YOU EVER CALL ME THAT AGAIN, I WILL POUND YOU INTO THE GROUND AND THEN HEX YOU TO OBLIVION!"

"Sorry I am."

"AND STOP TALKING LIKE YODA!"

"Whoops!"


Sirius opened the door to their penthouse apartment (being an Auror pays well.) and threw his keys on the floor, as he usually did, resulting in him losing them and spending hours searching for them for hours.

"To bed I am going, I think." James stated, and he promptly curled up on the floor and went to sleep.

Sirius however, went off to his bedroom so he could sleep in a proper bed.


The next morning James woke with a awful migraine. He grasped at his bedside table searching for his glasses, when he found them, he also found a note scrawled in Sirius' writing.


James,

I called work and told them you were sick, this counts as a favour. Now, since I did you a favour, you have to do me one. We're running out of food, you have to go and buy some.

There is a glass of the hangover potion Remus gave me on your table. Drink it soon. Who knew I could be so responsible!

From Sirius


James sculled every single drop of the potion. Then he remembered what happened the night before, and he became incredibly angry and depressed, so he threw the glass at the wall, hoping it would make him feel better. It didn't, it just made a mess, which James would later have to clean up.


After he had a shower and got dressed James decided that he would go shopping; the muggle way. (Dum dum dum!)

He got in Remus' car put the key into the keyhole and turned, the car roared to life. Amazing. All without magic He thought. Then he realised, he didn't know how to drive a muggle car; so he pulled out his wand and charmed it, but it didn't work; so he tried again, it didn't work.

If only Lily was here. She was brilliant at charms. He thought. No! I mustn't think about her!


James got out of the car and slammed the door in frustration. He apparated with a Pop! And he thought to himself 'things are so much easier with magic.'

James walked into the grocery shop and pulled out a trolley. He found it incredibly unruly and hard to push around.

He finally worked out how to use it after a quick and secretive charm.

As the trolley rolled along with ease, James continuously looked confused as to which brands he should buy.

"Confused?"

James nodded, not looking up to see who it was.

"I was the same when I started grocery shopping here."

James turned to see the girl from the pub the night before. The girl he had crashed into.

"Emma?"

"James with an 'S'? I didn't recognize you!" she exclaimed

James looked at her; she had golden blonde hair and entrancing blue eyes. He stared straight into them, checking for any specks of green.

"James, why are you looking so intensely at my eyes?"

"I'm looking for green." He said plainly

"Green? Why?"

"To see if you're Lily."

"Lily?"

"My ex-girlfriend. She tricked me; it's a long story."

"James, you might as well stop looking, because you won't find any green, only blue."

"Oh." James said, and he stopped his search, believing her immediately; he looked back at the shelves of food items.

"Do you want me to help you? It looks like you could use a hand." She asked

"Yes please." He replied like a little boy asking for candy.
