Today is Sirius's Birthday

It is especially packed today in The Three Broomsticks. Not only are witches and wizards across the nation here, but also students from the school. Among the students are four boys laughing loudly at a table drinking butterbeer. Sirius is sitting in front of small cake with 14 candles and one for good luck. James, Remus, and Peter sit around him.

"Your so lucky having your birthday on the Hogsmeade trip," said Lupin, sipping some more butterbeer. James lights the candles on the cake with his wand.

"Well Sirius usually is lucky with these sort of things," he says as he lights the last candle. "Unfortunately, he's not so lucky escaping detention from McGonagall." Everyone laughs.

They eat the cake and leave the inn. It's a bright sunny day in the village, happy faces everywhere. Peter suggests they go to Zonko's so they set off towards the joke shop.

As they walk, Sirius notices a group of Ravenclaw girls exit the post office. Among them is a girl with strawberry-blond hair and golden-brown eyes. She was giggling with her friends and notices Sirius and his friends.

"Hey there, Venus," says Sirius, heart pounding.

"Hi Sirius," she replies and walks off with her friends smiling back to him.

The rest of the Marauders had to drag Sirius to Zonko's, since he was much more inclined to following the Ravenclaw girls.
