Chapter six.
"Lily! I'm back!" James called, as he slammed the door to their cottage shut,
He barely had time to put down his quill and parchment before Lily ran up to him, "Oh thank god you're home!" she sighed, shoving Elle into his arms and running off towards the bathroom.
"Err, Lily, why couldn't you go while I wasn't here?" James called, from his place in the living room,
"Because I don't like leaving Elle on her own." She replied,
"What about Ellie and Emma? Couldn't they watch her?"
"No, because they went to Hogsmeade, I was going to go but I had a headache" Lily called back, as the toilet flushed.
"Hello children!" said a cheery voice, as Sirius appeared at the door,
"Hi Sirius, what do you want now?" Lily asked impatiently, coming back into the room,
"Oh geez Lils, you make me feel so welcome." Sirius said sardonically,
"No, it's almost eight o'clock, James why are you home so late?" Lily said, glancing at her wristwatch,
"I had detention, but I'm going to cook up a storm for dinner!" he said, in hopes of redeeming himself,
"Okay, but don't use such a cheesy line next time James." Lily laughed,
"Sirius why are you here anyway?" James said, before walking out of the room,
"Prongs, I have a question, why do you start a conversation with me and then walk out of the room?"
"Cos I don't feel like talking to you Padfoot." James replied,
"Oh that's so nice of you." Sirius said sarcastically.
"I agree." James called back, "Shut up now, I gotta start making dinner."
"Okay, so Lily how are you?" Sirius asked, sitting down on the couch next to Lily, Elle was now sitting in her playpen, continuously whacking a toy hammer on the ground, 'Seewoos' she gurgled,
"Yes Elle, Sirius, a.k.a me, is the best person in the world." Sirius said happily,
"Don't believe a word he says Elle." Lily said, "Sirius, why are you here?"
"Oh yeah, Emma kicked me out of the house because I ripped the couch and put my foot through the wall, oh boy she was angry." He said casually,
"Oh boy?" Lily asked,
"I dunno, I felt like saying it." he answered,
"Well now that you're here you may as well stay for dinner." She sighed,
"Yes, thank-you Lily."
"James make some food for Sirius as well, he's staying!"
"Ok!" James called from the kitchen, "I make-a de pizza! Mwa!"
"Oi Prongs!" Sirius called,
"Si?" he said in his awful Italian accent,
"Don't do the Italian accent, it doesn't suit you." Sirius said,
"Aye." James said,
"James, we got quidditch tomorrow! Aren't you excited?" Sirius cried happily, "The first game of the year!"
"Oh yeah! I totally forgot!" he said,
"James, never say totally again," Sirius shouted monotonously,
"Totally, totally, totally." James called triumphantly,
"You are so childish." Sirius yelled back,
"Takes one to know one Padfoot!"
"You are just proving my point!" Sirius called,
"Whatever. The pizza is ready, come and get some." James called to them, dismissing what Sirius had said, Sirius ran into the kitchen and plopped down on a chair, Lily came in a minute later and strapped Elle into the highchair.
"Here we go, pizza a la James." James said, placing the tray of pizza on the table, he put a stupid grin on his face and waited eagerly for them to take a bite, Lily noticed that he was wearing a very strange apron that read 'kiss the cook'
"You like my apron? Wanna kiss me?" he asked her, seeing her looking at it,
"No thanks, I'm good." Lily said,
"Then eat the pizza!" he said,
"Um, did you poison it?" Sirius asked uncertainly,
"No, why would I do that, we have quidditch tomorrow, and I need my beaters to be nice and strong." James said, Lily was feeding Elle spoons of mashed banana,
"Come on Lils, eat your pizza, I'll feed Elle!" James said, he was being overly cheerful. He sat down and started shoving spoons of food in Elle's mouth.
"James! Don't just stuff it in! Make it a game, do the airplane thing." Lily said,
James started waving the spoon vigorously in front of Elle's face, throwing mashed banana everywhere, Lily grabbed his hand and directed it in an airplane-like motion.
"Oh!" he said, "This is easy."
Two hours later, when Sirius had left, Lily and James were in the bedroom, lying on James' bed, with Elle in between them,
"…Your most embarrassing hair cut?" James asked,
"Oh, there have been many." Lily laughed, "But the worst was when I was eight, I went to this new place, and a sixteen year old apprentice person did my hair, she chopped it all off, way too short, and it looked awful."
"I'm sure it didn't." James said sincerely,
"Oh, thanks." She said, "What about you?"
"Oh, it doesn't matter if my hair gets all chopped off, it will grow back within an hour." He said truthfully,
"That's why it's so wild. Okay my go!" Lily laughed evilly, "Who was your first kiss?"
"Marnie Yard, second grade."
"Second grade? Oh my gosh James!" Lily chuckled, she noticed Elle was asleep, so she picked her up and placed her on her crib and tucked her in.
"I'm gonna give you a question now, and you have to be truthful." James said, Lily nodded, "Who out of the Marauders, would you most prefer to kiss?"
"Ooh, okay, not Peter for obvious reasons, not Sirius because he is always with a new girl, and I wouldn't want to be just one of the bimbos. So that leaves you or Remus. That's hard because you have become more mature this year, but Remus and I have been friends for a long time." Lily considered it for a minute. "I guess because Remus is one of my really good friends and it would be weird, I pick you."
"Really?" James asked,
"Mmm." Lily nodded,
"Well, kiss the cook." James said, he leant in and kissed her lightly, she deepened it. It felt so good to be in his arms, yet it was kind of weird, but he smelt so good. Lily broke away from him, realizing what she was doing, she got off his bed and went back to hers; fifteen minutes later, she was asleep.
