Convincing the Hopeless

A/N: All hail the great Jo Rowlings, I own nothing except Elaine and some others. Thoughts are in Italics. Oh and I couldn't kill off Sirius, so I made Peter the Rat die in the third book. Tisk, tisk 133 over hits but not one review. All you do is hit the little blue button at the bottom. Michael James is the Dad and Roseanna is the Mom of the Potters. Sara Bella is Bella.

"DAMN!" it was Ellie, "Is Sirius here at all?"

"Uh-huh up in the attic. Who are you?" asked Tonks

"Dang Remus and Sirius didn't mention that she forgot me! I'm Elaine Potter. Better known as Ellie, second floor at the Ministry I'm in league with Shackbolt, Kingsly that is," Ellie said with a smile, "Oh and Remus my family will be arriving by apparition. So you are forewarned because Cissa, Krisa, and Bella apparate pretty loud, but the rest….their ok. So were is your attic?" they pointed to the stairs and said that it was the first door on the right.

"So what were you going to tell me, Remus?" Tonks asked

"Well, it's just that…of look the Cannons won their first match…I have to go tell Sirius that he needs to pay me 20 gallons. Excuse me." Remus said as he ran up the stairs, "Sirius!"

"What! Is there something going on with the Order? Elaine! Get out here…" Sirius looked like he had been in a fight with a few Gryffindor girls and lost. Ellie looked worst.

"What did you bloody do to each other…I don't want to know! I can't ask her out Padfoot I get too damn scared."

"Moony just go down there and tell her me and Elaine…" Sirius was cut off.

"ELLIE!" Ellie screamed.

"Right moving on me and Ellie will be watching from the steps so if anything goes wrong we will help you out Moony," Sirius said with a smile.

"Well I guess it's worth a shot. Ok Padfoot I'll try."

"Now that is the wolf I know, let's go."

"Took you long enough, Remus. What did you guys do? Have a row or something?" said Tonks cheerfully.

"Yes, we did. Sirius thought something was wrong with the Order so he came out calling Elaine after him asking what was wrong. He looked like he lost a fight with a bunch of Gryffindor girls and Elaine looked worst, he got really mad at me for disrupting him with news telling him that Ireland lost to the Cannons." Tonks was now rolling on the floor with laugher.

"…and he…thought…something… was…wrong" said Tonks, "Ok Remus now what were you going to tell me?"

Remus looked at Sirius and Elaine who gave him big thumbs' up and he swore he saw Elaine mouth 'Go for it Remus.' "Ok Tonks…I was wondering if you would like to…" he dropped off.

"Do what Remus?" Tonks asked.

Remus looked back over at Sirius who was now hitting his head on the wall, Elaine tried to stop him but failed she gave Remus the thumbs up sign and the ok sign. Remus sighed I have to tell her "Ok Tonks you know that there is a dance a Hogwarts…"

"Yah Remus, go on, please." said Tonks

"I was wondering if…"

"GOD DAMN IT!" yelled Sirius,

"Sirius please!" Elaine fussed, "My siblings and their lousy timing. Come on Sirius lets go meet them."

"Hi, I'm Cissa Potter and you are?" said the girl named Cissa

A/N: I really needed a place to stop, because I want to post two long chapters over the weekend. I'm writing them as we speak. All of the naming was Lily's idea, and my Cousin James decided to lend a hand. So I have Lily and James working with me.
