Disclaimer: Same ol' same ol'. I don't own Harry Potter or any other such things related to it. Also, the lines about Sirius', James', and Lily's drinks aren't mine, I mean the ones about what is in their drinks, they are from a kid in my school who said them and I wouldn't have the honor of saying them for all your amusements if it weren't for brotherly love.

Time Slip
Chapter Twelve
Anger Problems
"May I take your orders?" asked their fire engine-redheaded waitress Dawn. Everyone looked up from the menus they were looking at. For the past five minutes, they were behaving and looking through the menus finding what they wanted.
"Well," Sirius said, glancing at the menu. "I would like a hamburger, well done, with Swiss cheese and chips and French fries."
Dawn just raised her eyebrow at him. "And to drink, sir?"
"Butterbeer." He replied.
"And I would like a cheese burger, also well done, with normal cheese and French fries." James said. "And to drink I would also like a butterbeer please."
Their waitress nodded and turned to Lily. "And you miss?"
"I would like spaghetti with tomato sauce and meatballs and green tea to drink."
"You get a garlic roll and salad with that. So, what kind of dressing would you like?" Dawn asked.
Lily looked thoughtful. "How about Italian."
Dawn nodded and looked to Harry. She quickly glanced at James and back. "And you what would you like hun?"
"I would like a steak, well done please, and mash potatoes." Harry replied.
The waitress nodded and smiled flirtatiously at him. "You also get salad with it."
"Okay, I'd like ranch with that." Harry said and smiled back. He wasn't at all surprised when he felt Sirius' arm wrap around his waist and that he rested his chin on his shoulder. He wasn't even surprised that he was glaring at her and muttering darkly. He was surprised though by the fact that his mother and father were glaring at the lady and that Sirius' hand was creeping down to grab his wand. Harry rested his hand on Sirius' and gave it a bit of a squeeze, which in turn made Sirius stop muttering and his body relax.
The waitress once again raised her eyebrows at the scene that had just unfolded. "Alright sir and what may I get you to drink?"
"I'll have a butterbeer also."
Dawn once again nodded and smiled, which brought back the glares of three certain people. She turned her head towards Remus. "What would you like sir?"
Remus replied, while looking at the others out of the corner of his eyes, "I would like what Lily is having, though I would prefer Thousand Island dressing and a chocolate milk shake instead."
"And I would like a personal pan pizza with pepperoni and extra cheese." Peter said, also looking at the scene in which Lily, James, and Sirius looked like they wanted to kill their waitress and Harry looked like he wished he was anywhere but there.
"And to drink?"
"Oh, I would like pumpkin juice."
Alice was smiling as she told the waitress what she would like. "I would like mushroom fry rice and shrimp chips and pumpkin juice also."
Dawn smiled at them. "Will this all be together?"
Lily opened her mouth to reply, but James got to it first. "Yes it will be." Lily momentarily turned her glare to him, in which he gave a dazzling smile.
She nodded again. "I'll be back in a bit with your drinks." And she walked away, with three sets of eyes glaring at her as she disappeared into a door.
Nobody spoke for a moment until…
"That wench." Lily muttered and everyone turned their eyes to her. "She is what, like twenty-eight and she is hitting on a seventeen year old! She so should get in trouble for that!" Lily looked pretty furious.
Harry was a bit shocked, but he guessed it was because of some motherly instinct that made her want to kill her and protect him. Maybe that instinct was also why she was turning to glare at Sirius, and since she was doing that, she didn't see the secret smile she was getting from James. "And you Mr. Black!"
"What, Ms. Evans?" Sirius asked as he glared back at her, never taking his arm from around Harry's waist or taking his chin off his shoulder or giving Harry his hand back.
"This is a public place so get your grubby hands off him." She replied.
Sirius stuck his tongue out at her. "No I will not. He is his own person and if he didn't want me touching him, he could just say so."
"I agree with Lily." James said as his secret smile turned into a glare.
Lily turned her glare, and her wrath, to him. "And you! I didn't say you could pay for my food."
"Oh, come on Lil's! I was being nice…I can be nice you know." James said.
Lily looked about ready to say something, but Alice said, "And we thank you James. Lily is just not use to seeing this side of you. I am also not use to seeing this side, but at least I can accept it." Alice glared at Lily, who in turned looked a bit guilty. "And besides, I think Sirius and Harry look cute together."
The looks she got from Lily, James, Harry, and Sirius were so amusing that it made her, Remus and Peter burst out laughing. People turned around to stare at them. They were still laughing when Dawn came back with their drinks. She gave them an odd look and started to set their drinks down. She gave a dirty look to Sirius, which he returned and she gave Harry a wink. Lily glared at her as Dawn set her drink down and James did the same. "Your food will be out in a minute." She said as she disappeared again.
Sirius let go of Harry to get his drink. He put it up to his mouth and then glanced down inside the cup. Lily and James did the exact same thing. Sirius turned around and poured his drink into the plant behind him. "What did you do that for?" Harry asked curiously.
Sirius made a disgusted face. "What did you expect me to do? There was loogie the size of an island in there!" Harry's eyes went wide, as did Remus', Peter's and Alice's.
James looked into his drink. "Oh look, the Bahamas."
"Let me rephrase that for you…there is a cake the size of a floaty in there." Lily added as she also poured her drink out into the plant and James followed suit. The others looked into there drinks.
Peter smirked at them and took a drink of his pumpkin juice. "I guess you guys just pissed her off to much."
"This happens way too often." Remus said with a sigh as he swirled the straw around in his drink.
"Since she spit in your drinks, I wonder what she added to Harry's." Alice said as she took a sip of her drink.
Harry looked down in his drink warily, but it was snatched out of his hands by Lily. "You are not to drink this." She said as she poured it out into the plant. The plant started to glow a bit and then the light faded. "Oh my God! She spiked it!" Lily said in a soft gasp. Just then the waitress came back with their food and Lily stood up and shouted a spell in one quick motion.
When the spell hit her, the food went flying back and landed all over a group of senior citizen wizards and witches who looked quite shocked to have spaghetti on their heads. As the spell cleared you could see that Lily must have been really mad because where the waitress should be a fire engine-red wart hog was, squealing and running away, tripping customers and a waiter who was carrying a huge bowl of ice cream that went flying and some how managed to land upside down right above their table, covering them in ice cream of all sorts, hot chocolate, sprinkles, and all other such stuff that belongs on an ice cream sundae. They all stood up and looked at Lily, then at the room that was in total chaos and them at themselves and they all burst out laughing. While everyone was laughing, Sirius leaned over and licked some of the ice cream off Harry's cheek. "Yum…you taste good." He whispered into his ear.
Harry smiled and licked a bit of ice cream off the tip of his nose. "I could say the same for you." Since there was ice cream covering Sirius' face, you couldn't make out the blush that was spreading rapidly.
James smiled and hugged Lily, so they did not see the display that Sirius and Harry just did. "That was bloody brilliant!" he praised and Lily blushed.
"Thanks…I didn't mean to lose my temper…I don't know why I got so mad…" she looked at Harry who was busy licking his hand and laughing with all the others. "It's just…for some reason I feel really over protective of him…" She smiled guilty and turned back to James, looking down cast. "I just don't know why…"
Lily felt James pat her on the shoulder. "It's alright Lily." Lily looked up at him and was startled to see a loving smile gracing his face as he looked at Harry. "I feel the exact same way." He turned his smile and gaze to Lily. Her heart sped up. She never saw this side of him before…"You know Lil's, you look cute all covered in ice cream." He said with a boyish smile. Usually a comment like that would've pissed her off, but for some reason it made her feel special and like he really only wanted her…
He started to lower his head towards her and her breath got caught in her throat. She found herself going up on her tiptoes to meet him. They were about an inch apart when someone shouted, "What the bloody hell is going on in here?" Lily whipped her headed around to face who had shouted and was glad that he had interrupted what she and James were just about to do…she was going crazy is what she decided on. James cursed and glared at the man who had shouted and stopped him from getting his kiss. 'At least she is starting to like me…' he thought as he glanced back down at the woman.
Harry had watched the whole scene unfold and decided that there is a great possibility that he wouldn't have to get James and Lily together because it seemed they were getting on great. He was sure to be born.
Alfred glared at the mess in his café. He glared down at the fire engine-red wart hog that seemed to be ramming his leg over and over. When it looked up at him he realized that it was one of his waitresses…and not just any waitress…the flirty waitress and his daughter. He sighed and waved his wand and muttered something. The wart hog suddenly started to grow and become more human with each passing second. When the wart hog was human again, it turned to the table that was had occupants covered in ice cream. "Daddy, they are the ones who started this!" she screamed as she pointed an accusing finger at them.
James glared and stalked up to her. "Well, if you didn't spit in mine, Lily's and Sirius' drink and spike Harry's, I could say this wouldn't have happened."
The girl looked all righteous. "Well, if you, that wench and that snot didn't get all nasty with me for looking at the other boy, I don't think I would've done it."
"Don't you dare insult her or my friend…" James said in a deadly quiet voice. The others at the table came and stood behind him.
Alfred sighed. "Dawn, darling, you do have a tendency to be a bit flirty and you do have a bit of an anger problem…"
Dawn glared up at the man. "But Daddy…he was cute…I didn't do anything bad."
James glared at her. "Sure…did it look like he was taken?" Dawn glared at him and didn't answer. "See…you couldn't get what you wanted so you got dirty…that is just sad…" He turned around and started walking out. "We're leaving. Just put our drinks and food on my parents tab." The others looked at him leave. He turned around to them. "You coming?" They followed James out the café and into the darkening street. "You guys want to come to my house and we can order Chinese?" he asked cheerfully. At the looks he was getting, he glared. "What?"
Lily looked at him in a bit of awe. "Since when have you gotten so mature?"
James looked shocked and started to blush. "Ah…"
"Lil's he was always mature." Sirius said coming up to her. She snorted. "It's true…he just doesn't like to show it."
James glared at his friend and sighed. "It doesn't matter." He said and glanced at Harry, who looked to be in deep thought and staring at Sirius. "I think you all should come over…you can bathe and stuff there too."
Lily and Alice looked at each other. "Sure Potter." Alice said. "We'll come." James looked at Lily and she nodded.
James smiled. "Okay, why don't we just apparate there?" he suggested.
"Umm…James?" Lily said and James looked at her.
"What?"
"I don't know where you live…"
"Oh, that's all?"
Lily looked puzzled. "Yes…"
James held out his hand and she looked at it weirdly. "Just take my hand and I'll take us both there."
"What? You can double apparate?" she asked shocked.
He nodded. "Yes. All of us can…" Lily shook her head and put her hand in his.
Alice smiled at them and whispered into Harry's ear. "Aren't they cute?"
Harry nodded, though he wasn't paying to much attention. He was busily thinking over what James had said earlier about him being taken…'I wonder if he meant it.' He thought to himself as he felt someone tap his shoulder. He looked up into Sirius' face. "Hmm?"
"You spaced…they left." He replied.
Harry looked around shocked. He didn't notice they disappeared. "Why'd they leave without me?" he asked and couldn't keep out the note of sadness in it.
"Well, when James asked if everyone was ready, you nodded…apparently you weren't paying attention…again." Sirius answered with a small smile on his face that went into an all out smile when Harry blushed. "You really need to get out of that habit…I know I am distracting, but I have never met anyone as distracted by me then you. Did I always distract you in the future?"
Harry glared at him. "No, not really…" he said, trying to think if he really did and it suddenly struck him…he usually did get distracted in the future with him, he just really never noticed it.
"AH HA! You DID get distracted!" Sirius shouted triumphantly at him.
Harry glared at him and apparated without gracing him with an answer.
--------------------------------------------
He landed in the Potter's dining room in a huff. 'Why do I get so damn distracted by him?' Harry thought furiously as he started towards the door, forgetting that he had no clothes to change into and that his bag of candy wasn't with him either. He was just about to open the door when something heavy landed on top of him with an 'oof'. Harry was laying face first in the rug with the thing one top of him.
"Sorry Harry." Sirius said getting off of him and putting his hand out to help him. Harry sighed and aloud him to help him up.
"That's alright." He said with a sigh. "I was just heading out to shower…wait! What happened to my clothes? And my candy?" He looked at Sirius. "Where'd your candy go?"
Sirius looked thoughtful. "We must have forgotten them where we met Dumbledore…though you shouldn't worry; they probably just popped into our rooms." He smiled. "Your room in right next to James', which is very close to mine! I will show you." He said and grabbed Harry's hand and they started walking down halls till finally Sirius stopped in front of a door. "This is your room." He let go of his hand and walked across the hall and to the right and stopped in front of the door there. "This is my room and the one to my left is Moony's and Wormtail's is the one across from Moony's and Prongsiedoo's is right across from mine and next yours, obviously." Sirius explained. (If this does not make sense, I apologize but I suck at telling my left from my right…)
Harry nodded and opened his door. He stepped through and was about to close the door when Sirius got between the door frame. "And one last thing…"He grabbed his chin gently and brought his head up into a crushing kiss…
