Chapter 4 Sidetracked
"Hey, Lils!" Sirius bellowed out. Lily looked over to see her dear old dog friend jogging over to her.
"Hi, Sirius. Not to be rude or anything but, what are you doing here for?" she asked, hugging her friend.
"No reason. Do I need one to come visit my friend after work? I wanted to know if you wanted to go out for some ice cream. I asked the others too, but they're claiming to be busy at work. Oh well, what do you say?" he asked. She looked thoughtful for a second.
"Okay. I see that I will have to teach you how to bandage a wound properly any ways." Lily said, pointing to the bandaged up arm Sirius had. Sirius grinned and laughed.
"I didn't want to bother you last night. It kind of opened up when I was playing two-on-two with the guys. Frank came over." Sirius gave Lily his infamous cocky grin. She laughed.
"That would a 'you' kind of thing to do, wouldn't it?" she giggled.
"Come on, let's go! I'm dying to hit one of those muggle ice cream parlors!" Sirius jumped up and down excitedly. It was quite a funny site actually. This 6"3' man was acting like a little kid while the 5"4' women in front of him was watching him with a slight smile of amusement playing on her face.
"Okay, okay. Let's go." She took out her camera and took a quick shot of Sirius' face. Sirius grinned as Lily put it back into her purse. The two of them walked into muggle London and headed for the nearest ice cream parlor.
"What can I get for you?" the man behind the counter asked. He looked no more than 20 years old. Sirius took this the wrong way and stepped in front of Lily.
"You can't get her, but you can give me a triple hot fudge sundae and give her a scoop of cookie dough ice cream in a cone." He said defensively. The man looked puzzled at the implied accusation and Lily giggled. 'He looks confused, and Lily's LAUGHING? She's engaged to Prongs! If he was here, he'd strangle this bloke!' Sirius thought.
"Sirius he meant what we wanted to have for ice cream!" Lily cleared, holding her sides and wiping a tear away.
Sirius felt like an idiot.
With the Famous/Not so Famous James and Dasani
"Hey Dasani. What are you doing here? If you're looking for Sirius, he just left." James said as he walked out of his office. She shook her head in reply.
"I'm here for you, you dolt." She said.
"Oh, that's nice." James said sarcastically as he heard the last part. "What did you need?" he asked.
"Do you want to go to Diagon Alley? Lily is going to the library I think, Allison and Remus said they're going on a date, Sirius goes crazy every time he goes there and I'd rather go to hell than spend the afternoon with Peter." Dasani said. James sighed at the last comment.
"Honestly, what do you girls have against him? Well, I should be asking why you hate him so much, at least Lily and Ally will tolerate being around him." James asked, exasperated. Dasani made a face that said 'duh' all over it.
"If you can't tell, than I'm not going to bother telling you. So will you come?" Dasani asked. "Thanks." She said without waiting for an answer, grabbing the confused auror and disapprating to the final destination.
With the Cutest Couple in the Girls' Flat at the Moment
"REMUS! Please explain how to check names off a list to Peter. I think he'll understand you better than me!" Allison begged. The sandy blonde haired boy looked at his girlfriend in amusement and nodded.
"Okay Als. You can go ahead and help Frank and Alice over there. I'll help Peter." He said. As he walked passed her, Ally could have sworn she heard him mumble. "Honestly, how hard can checking invitations be?" she shook her head and giggled softly before heading towards Frank and Alice Longbottom.
"Alice, do you need any help?" Ally asked her friend.
"I sure could use some. Thanks Ally. This all reminds me of my engagement party. Straight out of Hogwarts." She remembered.
"Yeah. By the way, how was the honeymoon in India?" Allison asked. (A/N: that was for you. And 'you' know who you are! I expect a reply to this a/n in a review 'you'!) Alice's eyes turned dreamy.
"As much as I would hate to break up this session of 'girl talk' I must. Lily and James will be here in an hour and a half or less! So we need to get this place ready. I still don't understand why we couldn't use magic entirely." Frank interrupted the girls.
"Because this is Lily and James' party and Lily always does things- certain things-the muggle way. She thinks that if you trust magic too much, it'll get ahead of you." Allison said. Alice nodded in agreement.
"Ladies-and Frank, might I suggest we get back to work?" Remus suggested, walking to them from the door where Peter sat in a chair placed there specifically for him. Allison looked over to him from where she stood on her ladder.
"Of course we can ge-AAAAAAAHH!" she shrieked as the ladder became unsteady, wobbled and threw her off. Remus dropped his wand that he held in his hand. Frank and Alice's mouths dropped open and their wands fell from their hands. Ally shut her eyes, awaiting her collision and acquaintance with the floor, but it never came. Instead, she felt herself fall into a familiar pair of strong arms.
"That was brilliant, mate!" Frank complimented. Allison opened her eyes cautiously. She found herself gazing into those familiar bewitching blue eyes.
"Thank you, Remmie!" Allison thanked. She wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly. Remus, of course, was still holding Allison. She pulled back and kissed his lips briefly.
"That's not a thank you!" Remus said as he put his girlfriend down. Frank and Alice had gone into the living room by now, leaving the couple alone in the hallway.
"Than what, kind sir, is?" Allison grinned, partially knowing what was going to happen next. Remus grinned evilly and moved his eyebrows up and down suggestively-a habit he was picking up from James and Sirius. He leaned down and caught her full on the lips. He wrapped his arms tightly around her waist and brought her as close to him as possible.
Ally pulled away, breathless. "Wow." Was all she could whisper.
"That's a thank you." he whispered as he rested his forehead on hers.
"I think we should get back to work." Allison said, pulling away from him. (A/N: I think that's enough Remus/Ally for now, right? Back to Lily and Sirius)
With the Cold Lily and the Still Eating Ice Cream Sirius
"Sirius, that's you third order of the same thing. Don't you think you should stop? I mean we've been here a little over an hour!" Lily tried. Sirius finished his ice cream and answered.
"One condition!" Sirius began.
"What?" Lily wondered.
"I'm eating dinner at your place! As long as Dasani doesn't cook. I would love to eat with the girls tonight!" Sirius said.
"You never stop thinking about food do you? Okay. That's fine. Dasani doesn't do the cooking any ways, she sets the table and washes the dishes. (A/N: )
"Let's go then!" Sirius said. He grabbed Lily's hand and ran to her car.
With James and Dasani
"James, do you want to have dinner at our place? Lily is cooking dinner tonight. Ally'll probably help her though." Dasani asked her friend as they exited Quality Quidditch Supplies.
"Lily's cooking? Wouldn't miss it!" James exclaimed.
"Then let's go. I'm starved!" Dasani said. The two of them apparated to the girls' neighborhood.
"Wait a minute, James!" Dasani stopped, look her friend over. "This won't do. This definitely won't do." She said taking out her wand and pointing it above James.
"What are you on about, Dasani? What's wrong with how I'm dressed?" James importuned.
"No, it's fine and all, but you can't come into my apartment look like you just got off work." Dasani said. With a wave of her wand, James was in much more formal attire. James look confused as she waved her wand at herself and found herself dressed in a sliver formal dress that went a little past her knees, was long sleeved and hugged her every curve.
"You look nice and all Dasani, but why are we all dressed up to go to your flat?" James asked.
"Don't worry about a thing, James." Dasani said.
With an Exasperated Lily and an Excited Sirius
"Would you calm down? We'll be there soon!" Lily sighed.
"Okay..." Sirius said. Five minutes later, "Are we there yet?"
"SIRIUS! We are not there yet! Now calm down otherwise you'll find yourself eating at your place!" Lily threatened.
"I'll be a good boy." Sirius sat still.
"Any ways, what's got you so excited?" Lily asked, pulling into her apartment complex.
"I just am." Sirius said. "Wait Lily, you look like a medi-witch!" Sirius said with horror. Lily just stared at her friend.
'He's finally lost it!' she thought. "Sirius, I am a medi-witch!" Lily informed.
"I know, but you can't go into your apartment looking it!" He took out his wand, waved it over his head and presto, instant formal attire. He repeated the action with Lily and she found herself dressed in a light blue dress that also went down a little past her knees. It had spaghetti straps that crossed in the back, a light blue stoned choker, and diamond earrings that touched her collar bone if she slouched. Her dress hugged her every curve.
"That's better! Let's go."
With Sirius, Lily, James and Dasani
"There's Lily and Sirius!" James said. "Lily! Padfoot!" James called waving to the mentioned two. They turned and waved.
"James, do you have any idea why Sirius has made me dress up to go into my own flat?" Lily asked.
"If you can't tell me why Dasani made me dress up to come to your flat, then we know nothing of what's going on. Maybe they finally lost it and have gone mad." James pondered.
"Let's just go inside!" Sirius said.
"Yeah! I'm starving!" Dasani whined.
"Whatever." Lily said, opening the door. The room was pitch black. This puzzled Lily.
"Hey, Lils. Wouldn't Ally have been home by now to turn on the lights at least?" James asked.
"I would think so. Lumos." She tried. But for some reason it didn't work. She realized that before she muttered the spell, Sirius had whipped her wand out of her hand.
"Allow me." He said, flicking on the lights.
"SURPRISE!"

Well? What did you think? It wasn't too short, right? I'm going to Ohio Wednesday. I'll be back the next Monday. And if you wanted more Snape action in this it's coming in the next chapter...or maybe the chapter after that-I'm not exactly sure! I hope you liked it and before you leave, make sure you click on that button that says "go" at the bottom of this page! Toodles!
