Hey, people, I'm back. I promised this would be up some time this year and look! I've got two weeks left! Maybe part three will be up soon too.

Summery: It's James's wedding day and someone accidentally switched the punch bowls. Part II of the Dew Trilogy.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything that has "by J.K. Rowling" at the bottom or anywhere else in said item. I also don't own Mountain Dew or its trademark slogan.

That said, enjoy!

Part II: Wedding Crasher

For the tenth time, James Potter straightened his bow tie. He grinned into the mirror, happily realizing that his greatest dream was coming true. He was marrying Lily Evans. Taking one last look in the mirror, he walked out of the room to the little chapel where they were going to be married.

The wedding was perfect, although Sirius had nearly given James a heart attack by pretending to lose the rings. Remus smacked Sirius upside the head for that. Peter was unable to attend. His mother was sick again.

It was at the reception that everything went haywire.

"Hey, James," whispered Lily. "What's that in the punch bowl?"

James turned around and said, "It should be just regular pineapple juice. I'll be right back." He made his way over to the bowl and poured himself a cup. He took a sip and grimaced.

"Mountain Dew," he muttered. Just then Sirius walked by with his untouched glass. James's eyes widened, remembering the last time Sirius had had Mountain Dew.

Unfortunately, by the time James had pushed his way through the crowd, Sirius had tilted the large cup back and swallowed half of its contents. The same reaction that had happened only a few years earlier started again: Sirius started shaking like Remus did when he transformed every full moon.

"Remus!" James yelled. Instantly, Remus was at his side. "Code Dew!" Remus nodded understandingly. They each grabbed one of Sirius's arms and tugged him into a small room that contained excess furniture from the reception hall. Thankfully, it was right next door.

No sooner had the door closed than Sirius began the wild rampage. Turning from human to dog and back, Sirius ran around the room, hyper on caffeine.

The door opened slightly and Lily ran in, shutting the door quickly behind her.

"James, what's going on?" she asked, surprised at their behavior.

"A few years ago, Sirius had some of this stuff, and had the same reaction," explained Remus. "Took him five hours to wear down and that was only a gulp. This time, he drank a lot more."

They watched as Sirius began ripping a chair apart, and Remus winced. "Sorry, Lily, I'll buy the chapel a new one."

Lily shook her head. "Is there any way to cure him? A potion or a spell?"

James shook his head. "The only option is to let him wear it off. The main chemical in Mountain Dew is caffeine."

"You let him have that stuff?" shrieked Lily. "James, that stuff is volatile! Not to mention bad-tasting!" She jumped to the side as Sirius, as Padfoot, ran past her. "Who would want to serve that?"

Remus shook his head. "Looks like somebody wanted to prank the wedding. But the only ones who knew about his past reaction are me, James, Sirius…" he trailed off. "And Peter."

"Or it could be my mom switched the drinks because she knows Mountain Dew is my favorite," added James quickly as Sirius, still in dog form, zipped by underfoot. Lily almost lost her balance, but grabbed onto James before she could go down. They watched, amused, as Sirius began chasing his own tail, oblivious to everyone watching.

Lily and James spent their wedding night looking after Sirius, trading places all night long. Thankfully, all the pictures had been taken prior to the ceremony, so they weren't required to appear together at the cake-cutting time, but Remus tied Sirius up so they wouldn't have to worry about him escaping and completely destroying their wedding.

By the time Sirius calmed down off of this high, it was eight the next morning. James, Lily, and Remus, exhausted, had simply curled up in undamaged furniture sometime about two. When Sirius finally ran out of steam, he collapsed on the nearest bed.

James woke up first and ended up levitating Sirius to the Muggle car they had rented. Remus put a Muffling Charm on Sirius so he wouldn't wake up. The ride to Potter Manor was made in complete silence. They put Sirius on the couch, and Remus dragged himself into one of the guest bedrooms to finish his sleep.

James and Lily curled up together in their room. As Lily drifted off to sleep, she thought to herself, I'll have to triple-check the drinks when we have children.

Eh, not too short, but still pretty good. I liked Part I best, but hey. I couldn't let this one stop there. So Part III will be up when my muses decide to help instead of squabble.

So, thanks to the reviewers from September to now. Has it really been that long?:
