Chapter Two: The sentence, "Honey, could you take his foot out of my pocket?" sounds normal.

"Hey there Mr Grumpy Gills!" called a voice from beside James' head. He attempted to smack it, but the owner of the voice carefully dodged the flying hand.

"Hey, I always said too much sleep is bad for you. It's FOUR IN THE AFTERNOON WAKE UP ALREADY PRONGS!" the voice continued.

"You never said that Padfoot," James grinned as he sat up. "Where's Moony and Wormtail?"

"Well, Moony is taking care of the baby you forgot about, and I dunno where Wormtail is." Sirius scratched his head thoughtfully.

"Damn it! Harry!" James nearly jumped straight to the ceiling.

"No worries, mate," said Sirius casually. "We have taken care of the boy, he seems to particularly like Moony, for some strange reason..."

Just then Remus walked through the door holding Harry. "Just woke from his nap. Late night, Prongs?" He grinned.

"Hahaha," said James sourly, still feeling tired after his nighttime ordeal.

"Well Lily should be back any minute now, so no worries, eh? I wonder if she passed her Auror test..." Remus trailed off as Lily popped suddenly into the room.

"Don't tire easily, right?" She teased James, giving him a kiss hello.

"Did I say that? I meant-er.." James stuttered.

"Save it. I just want you up and ready for tonight." Lily told him.

"Oh, yeah, right, tonight." James froze in horror. What was tonight?

"What's tonight?" asked Sirius, echoeing James' thoughts.

"I have to go freshen up, you can tell him James," Lily said, walking out of the room to the bathroom.

"So, Prongs, what's tonight?" Remus asked.

"Er...well, we're going out and.." The more he stuttered the larger Sirius' grin got.

"You don't know." Remus said, flatly. James nodded. "Ah, well it is to be expected, it's the male nature. But thankfully, you have friends who do remember...it's your anniversary."

"What? Oh no..I don't have a gift!" James began panicking.

Remus shifted Harry who was gazing at the three men with curious eyes. "Taking her out to the restaurant was part of it, the other part was the bracelet that you'll find in your nightstand."

James checked. There was a beautiful gold bracelet with a beautiful floral design. So he was safe. For now.

Later, Remus and Sirius were sending the two off, promising the house would not be completely trashed when they arrived home. James snuck in to give a quick hug to Harry, but when he tried to back away, he found Harry's foot was caught in his pocket. "Honey, could you take his foot out of my pocket?" This was a normal frase by now.

"Darling, I didn't know you cared." Sirius fluttered his eyelashes, he had been holding Harry at the time.

"I meant Lily."

"Oh, poo."

After Lily took Harry's foot out of James' pocket, Sirius and Remus started laughing.

"What's so funny?" Lily and James asked at the same time.

"Honey, could you take his foot out of my pocket?" Sirius quipped.

"It sounds hilarious!" Remus added.

Lily rolled her eyes at the immature boys and tugged James out of the house where they apparated to the restaurant.

So...chapter two such a big accomplishment! Now do you like this one? hate it? unsure? aha. well REVIEW! I remember when my uncle said that to my aunt once when he was holding my little baby cousin...now that was hilarious for everyone there and it sounded NORMAL to them. Scary thought.
