|Chapter 2: Foxy's Red Knickers|

August 3rd, 1976

I woke up to the sounds of loud, obnoxious snoring.

I clenched my hands into fists and rubbed the sleep from my eyes. When I could finally see I lifted myself up into a sitting position and checked the clock on the wall, it was 9:34am. I sighed and glanced at the floor, finding the source of the annoying snoring. I couldn't help but laugh, somehow during the night Sirius and James had managed to throw the blankets off themselves and get into a spooning position. Sirius was the big spoon incase you were wondering, oh my god I need to get a camera right now oh and they did have shirts on along with pajama pants. So silently I crept from the bed and padded over to the door, opening it slowly so they wouldn't hear. Then once I was safely out the door I bolted down the stairs and into the kitchen where I could hear Mrs. Potter talking with Mr. Potter.

"Evelynn! When did you get here?" Mr. Potter asked. I waved and shot him a grin "Last night, the boys and I spent all out time downstairs" I informed him. He nodded his head knowingly, "Hey do you have any whipped cream I could borrow? And possibly a camera?" I asked. Mr. and Mrs. Potter chuckled "Pranking the boys again?" he asked knowingly as he opened the fridge and tossed me the can. I grinned and nodded "They scared me after a horror movie, time for revenge" I told them. The Potter's were really cool, they didn't mind the little parking war the boys and I had. I mean as long as we cleaned up any messes that we made. They rolled their eyes and laughed "Of course, well there should be a camera on the mantel" Mrs. Potter said before she turned back around to the stove. I smiled "Thank you" I replied before bolting over to the mantel and grabbing the camera.

Then I quickly ran back up the stairs and tip toed into the room. I smiled when I saw the boys were still cuddled together. I took the camera and smiled wickedly, oh yes everyone would be getting a copy of this. I made a mental note to make sure the pictures were developed in the near future. I snapped about 15 shots and I had to try and control my giggle every time one of the moved since it always led to being snuggling closer. I shook the bottle of whipped cream and carefully sprayed a bit of cream on each of their hands. It was a little tough to get it on Sirius' hand since it was around James but I managed to do it. I shook the can again and grinned before squirting some into my mouth, I couldn't help it whip cream is just too good.

Then I walked over to my trunk and dug out one of my quills. Yes the whole whip cream on the hand thing was probably one of the oldest tricks in the book but it was still pretty affective and funny plus I think scaring me wasn't too bad so I guess I can let them off a bit easier… although I think it would be bloody brilliant if I could do something else… I took some hair colour spray from my trunk, hey you never know when you might need it for a good prank, then began to carefully spray each of their heads. I gave Sirius a red colour and James got the gold, time for them to show off their Gryffindor pride. With one last spray I quietly stepped back to admire my work. James and Sirius were still cuddled together with whip cream on their hands, while their hair were different colours with little feathers in it.

I smothered another laugh with my hands and took a few more pictures. When I was finished I carefully stored the camera under my knickers, since I know they wouldn't dare to go in there. Then I took my quill and lightly dusted it over James' nose before doing the same to Sirius. I giggled when they both reached up to pat away at their faces and the cream spread all around. Of course I grabbed the camera once again and took a couple of shots before hiding it again. "Sirius… Sirius… time to wake up hun" I whispered. "Prongs… hey James… wake up…" I called. Both boys just groaned and Sirius buried his face in James' hair and this time I couldn't stop the laugh that came from my throat as his face began to turn a slight gold from the spray. This caused both Sirius and James to open their eyes groggily. "What's so funny love?" Sirius asked.

I giggled "I always knew you two were close but I never knew you were that close" I teased. Sirius gave me a confused look before he realized where his hands were. "BLOODY HELL!" he yelped, shoving James away from him and jumping to his feet. I clutched my stomach and began to laugh harder. "Padfoot what in Merlin's name are you going off about?" James mumbled as he sat up. "Well Jamesy I can answer that, see this morning I found you and Sirius all nice and snuggled up together. Quite cute actually and of course I couldn't forget the scare you gave me so naturally I decided to do a little revenge" I explained. James' eyes widened and he shot a look at Sirius before bursting out laughing. "Padfoot have you looked in the mirror yet?" James asked. Sirius glared "I could ask the same thing mate" he countered. James stopped laughing and both boys bolted toward the bathroom. I giggled and trailed behind them, leaning against the bathroom threshold.

"What did you do to my hair!" Sirius whimpered as he took in the red colour I had blessed him with along with the feathers. I shrugged and smirked "I felt like being creative this morning" I said. Sirius glared "You don't mess with my hair Foxy" he growled. I giggled and looked over at James who was trying to pick the feathers from his golden locks. He was muttering under his breath "Now we're even" I said. Sirius and James looked at each other before sharing a secret smile and my eyes widened, I began to slowly back away from the room. "Where you going Evie? Surely you know that messing with one's hair is simply unacceptable" Sirius mock chastised. I gulped and gave a nervous laugh at the slowly approaching boys.

Then as quickly as I could I bolted out of the room and raced down the hallway, laughing as they boys started to chase me. Suddenly I felt Sirius's fingers brush my waist and I squealed, trying to make my legs go faster. I bolted down the stairs and quickly turned the corner only to find myself slamming into something or rather some one. I closed my eyes as I felt myself begin to fall but a pair of arms caught me. I snapped my eyes opened and grinned "Moony!" I exclaimed happily. I reached up and wrapped my arms around his neck for a hug. "Long time no see!" I said, Remus laughed and hugged me back "What did you do this time?" he asked knowingly. I grinned and quickly grabbed his hand, dragging him towards the kitchen. "Sirius and James had it coming now save me!" I exclaimed as James and Sirius burst into the kitchen.

I quickly hid behind Remus while Mr. and Mrs. Potter chuckled at the scene. "I think it's best if we leave" Mr. Potter mused. Mrs. Potter nodded her head "I agree, remember what ever mess you lot make you better clean it up" she warned before walking over to her husband. "You better eat your breakfast!" she called before they apparated. It was quiet for a moment before James pressed his arms across the threshold of the kitchen doorway so it was blocked. Sirius began to slowly inch forward, casting a smirk in my direction. "Moony, lovely to see you mate but I'm going to have to ask you to move. We need the little vixen behind you" he explained. I grabbed Remus's arm and held him in place. "I don't think so, Remus is going to stay right here." I said.

Remus turned and gave me an amused look. "Did you do that to their hair?" he asked. I grinned and nodded "You should've seen them this morning Remmy, all cuddled up to each other. So cute, but in my defense they scared me last night!" I explained. Remus laughed "So you dyed their hair and placed feathers in them?" he asked. I nodded my head "The pictures didn't seem like enough" I shrugged. Sirius and James gasped "Pictures!" they yelled. I popped a hand over my mouth "Opsie, that was supposed to stay a secret" I mumbled. Remus laughed while the other two sent me glares. "Okay so maybe I went a little overboard…" I admitted. Sirius shot me a look "Really? You don't say?" he muttered sarcastically.

I put on my best puppy dog face and walked up to Sirius. "I'm sorry" I said. Sirius glanced at James who gave a short nod. Sirius sighed and opened his arms "I suppose I can forgive you, I mean it does wash out right?" he asked. I grinned and nodded my head "Of course" I said. Sirius smirked "Well then come on love, I need a hug to make it all better" he teased. I rolled my eyes and stepped into his arms. I wrapped my arms around him while he did the same, I felt butterflies scatter in my stomach and my face turned a light pink colour. I felt Sirius lock his arms around me and move his face down to my ear. I shivered lightly when his warm breath hit my ear. "You should no better than that love" he whispered. My eyes widened and I turned to Remus who shrugged and grinned as if to say 'You walked right into that one'.

Next thing I know I'm pinned to the ground by Sirius who is tickling the wits out of me.

"Sirius- get- off- of- me-! Stop- it-!" I exclaimed through giggles. Sirius smirked and shook his head "Revenge is sweet love" he replied, brushing my sides with his fingers. James was looking at us with a smug expression while Remus had an amused glint in his eyes. "Remmy- help- me!" I wheezed. Remus shook his head "Sorry Evie" he apologized. James smirked and mouthed something to Remus who laughed. But I was too busy giggling to really make sense of it "Sirius PLEASE!" I shouted. Sirius smirked and pinned my arms down, letting me catch my breath. My chest was heaving rapidly and Sirius's eyes held so much mirth that I couldn't help but grin. "Have you learned your lesson love" he asked. I frantically nodded my head "Yes". Sirius grinned and began to clamber off of me "Thank Merlin" I muttered as I stood up and brushed the dust from my clothes.

"Well… that was some welcome" Remus mused as we all sat down at the table. I quickly sat beside Remus and glared at the two other grinning boys. "Where's Wormtail?" James asked as he piled on a giant stack of pancakes and doused them with syrup. Remus shrugged "He said he couldn't make it today, something about family issues" he replied. Sirius shrugged "Oh well, we'll see him another time" he said. James nodded in agreement and I giggled when a feather fell onto his pancake. "You both really should shower" I mused before taking a bite from my own pancake stack. "Would you like to help me love? I don't think I'll be able to wash all the feathers out and in return I'll help you scrub your back" Sirius teased, giving me a saucy wink. I felt my cheeks flush a deep red while James and Remus chortled from beside us.

"I see what you mean about sexual tension Prongs" Remus mused. My jaw dropped and I glared daggers at James. "You're corrupting him!" I accused. The boys chuckled at me "Just eat your pancakes Evie" James said. I grumbled but did as I was told, we ate in silence for a moment before I gasped and jumped from the table. I quickly downed my orange juice and clambered towards the stairs. "Where's the fire?" Sirius joked. I rolled my eyes "I forgot to owl Lily last night!" I exclaimed before bolting towards my room. I heard another chair move before some one was running after me and I had a pretty good idea of who it was. Once I made it to my room I walked over to my trunk and rummaged around until I found a piece of parchment and a quill.

I went over to the desk and sat down so I could write my letter but before I could so anything James popped into my room and gave me an eager look. "Did you say my Lilyflower?" he asked excitedly. I rolled my eyes and nodded my head "She is my best friend you know" I said. "I take offense to that" Sirius said as he walked in as well with Remus trailing behind him. "My best girl friend you arse" I exclaimed, rolling my eyes with a playful smile on my face. Sirius smirked and walked over to me "Good because we all know you fancy me more than her" he said. James scoffed "Please Padfoot, I am obviously Foxy's best guy friend" he said. I laughed "Please, I like Moony better than either of you. He doesn't tickle me to death" I teased, shooting Remus a wink. He chuckled and sat on the bed while James and Sirius glared daggers at him. As they began to argue I turned towards my letter.

Dear Lily,

I miss you too! I haven't seen you since the summer began! Sorry I didn't owl you last night, James and Sirius distracted me. Bloody gits decided that scaring me was a fantastic idea but don't worry I got revenge, remind me to show you the pictures they are brilliant if you ask me but anyways let's get down to business. Did you say that Sophia was dating Ludo Bagman? Are you pulling my leg? Why didn't she owl me? I swear when I see her next she's going to get an earful from me!

By the way, don't worry about Petunia she's just being a jealous prat. You know you're not a freak Lil, just ignore her. If you need any help boosting your self confidence you know James is happy to help you! He says 'Hi Lilyflower' by the way and yes he is looking over my shoulder as I write this and no he didn't see the last letter. I left that one at home, don't need James knowing our secret now do we? I also can't answer your other question since Sirius is looking as well, sorry Lil but do you think you could come over to the Potter's for a visit!? I don't think I can wait until Diagon Alley. Please Lily? I promise James will be on his best behavior I'll even make Remus keep an eye on him. I have so much to tell you!

You better owl me back by the end of the day Evans! I'll be waiting!

Before I could end my letter James snatched it from my hand along with my quill and began to write something at the bottom. "Hey James!" I exclaimed reaching back for it but Sirius caught me around the waist and held me back. "Tell me Foxy, what was in the last letter? I curious…" Sirius mused. I blushed and shook my head "Sorry Padfoot but that it strictly between Lily and I" I said. Sirius frowned "Oh come on Ev" he whined. I shook my head and pushed Sirius away "Sorry mate but it's strictly confidential" I said, grabbing the parchment from James. I looked down and laughed a little at his message at the bottom.

Don't worry Lilyflower I promise to be on my best behavior! I won't even ask you out when you come, I swear. I just want to see your beautiful face once this summer, so please Evans come?

Love from,

James Potter… oh and Evelynn Dawson, Sirius Black and Remus Lupin

I grinned and folded up the parchment before sticking it in an envelope; I called my owl Artemis over and lovingly pattered her head before strapping the letter to her leg. "Give this to Lily Evans would you dear? Thank you" I said, kissing her softly on the head before she flew off. "Do you think she'll come?" James asked. I watched Artemis for a minute before she disappeared into the fluffy white clouds. "I think so, as long as you keep your promise" I said. James grinned and nodded "I swear I will" he said. I smiled "Good, then she should come over" I said. James smiled as a black tendril of hair fell over his eye. I couldn't help but mentally aw at him, he really did love Lily.

"Hey Foxy… mind if I keep these?" Sirius' voice asked.

I turned around and gave him a questioning look before it turned to one of embarrassment and shock. He was over by my trunk holding up the camera which had a pair of my lacy red knickers hanging off of it. "Sirius. Orion. Black." I said, punctuating each word. "You put that down right now!" I shouted. Sirius smirked and shook his red feathered head "I don't think so love, I quite like these" he teased, plucking them from the camera and sticking them in his pajama pants pocket. James and Remus chuckled and I gave all three of them a murderous glare "Put the camera back and give me my knickers Black" I spat. Sirius raised a brow "What are you going to do Foxy?" he teased. I shook my head and placed my hands on my hips before smirking at James. "Why don't I just tell Lily not to come? Unless you can get Sirius to drop my knickers…" I mused to him. James's eyes widened and he shot a frantic look at Sirius.

"Come on mate please" he asked. Sirius frowned "But James…" he started but James cut him off. "You can always come back and steal them later!" he exclaimed. Sirius stopped pouting and smirked while I glared, James gave me a sheepish look. I rolled my eyes and walked over to Sirius and placed my hand out. With a dramatic sigh he brought my knickers from his pocket and placed them in my hand. I balled them up before shoving them deep into my trunk and closing it shut. "Sodding Black" I muttered under my breath as I stood back up. "Thank you!" James sang and Sirius grinned "No worries mate" he said, there was a mischievous glint in his eyes and I knew nothing good would come of it. "Now would you prats get out of here so I can shower?" I asked flatly. Remus shook his head and began to leave the room with James in tow, Sirius was following them but stopped at the door.

"Still want to take up my offer love?" he winked.

I just threw a pillow at his face, he dodged and laughed as he walked down the hallway.

I went and shut the door before making my way to the shower.

"Bloody idiots" I muttered before locking the bathroom door.

When I got out of the shower I put on a pair of purple knickers along with the matching bra then I grabbed a beige skirt that stopped just above my knees and an off white lace long sleeved top, then I grabbed a matching beige slouchy beanie and pulled it on top of head after brushing my hair. For makeup I just put a bit of eyeliner and mascara with a dash of lip gloss. When I was satisfied I walked over to my desk and pulled on a pair of white socks that ended a few inches under my knee, then I grabbed another piece of parchment. Lily had owled me back during my shower, she was one quick witch.

Dear Evelynn,

I suppose it would be alright if I came over, but I swear if James does anything…

Anyways, it's quite alright I don't doubt that Black was distracting you ;) We have so much to talk about, how about I come on Saturday? Is that alright?

P.S- Hello James, I expect you to keep your promise! Oh and Hello Sirius and Remus

Love,

Lily Evans

I grinned and wrote Lily back,

Dear Lily,

Brilliant! I expect to see you here at noon! No later! See you Lils.

Love,

Evelynn Dawson

I quickly sent Artemis back out the window before walking out my room to join the boys outside. I walked down the stairs and pulled on a pair of leather boots before walking out the back door. I walked for a while before I looked up and saw James and Sirius were practicing their Quidditch skills while Remus sat under a tree reading a book. I saw that it was Hogwarts: A History I giggled and walked over, peering over his shoulder at the book. "Haven't you read that book enough times?" I teased. Remus smiled and patted the spot next to him, I gladly accepted and tucked my legs under my bottom. I don't need perverts, cough Sirius cough, getting a glance at my knickers. "Reading the classics are always good" Remus mused. I smiled and laid my head on his shoulder as we read the book together.

"How are you Remmy?" I mumbled. Remus sighed "Tired" he murmured. I looked up at his face and saw there were bags under his eyes and he looked completely exhausted. "Full moon soon" I stated. Remus nodded wearily "Yeah" he murmured. I plucked the book from his hands and placed it beside me "Come on Moony, you need to get some sleep. This isn't healthy for you" I said. I gently made him lie down and place his head in my lap. "Now get some sleep" I demanded. Remus chuckled lightly and nodded his head "Yes mum" he teased. I rolled my eyes and idly played with his hair while I watched James and Sirius… well mostly Sirius if I'm going to be honest.

They were having a little race as they flew around the trees. I had to admit that they were pretty damn good quidditch players. James made a bloody good chaser while Sirius was an amazing beater as well. I smiled as James playfully smashed into Sirius, one day they are going to hurt themselves and I for one am going to say I told you so. I ran my fingers through Remus's brown locks hopefully I was calming him, the poor boy looked absolutely tuckered. I wished there was a way I could make the transformation easier for him, Remus was such a kind hearted boy and didn't deserve this fate. I sighed and leaned my head back against the tree, closing my eyes for a moment. This was nice, the four of us just hanging out together outside in the sunshine. It was pretty peaceful actually and I quite enjoyed the silence. I smiled lightly as a cool breeze swayed through the trees and lightly carried my hair over my face.

It really was the perfect day.

"Enjoying yourself?" a stony voice asked. I popped my eyes open and saw Sirius looking at Remus and me with an expression I wasn't quite familiar with. I rolled my eyes and lightly pressed a finger to my lips. "Hush Sirius, Remus is getting some well deserved sleep. There's a full moon coming up, is it wrong for me to worry?" I hissed. Sirius's gaze softened and he pursed his lips "Sorry" he muttered. I smiled "Remus is like a brother to me, I can't help but want the best for him" I murmured. Sirius sighed and sat next to me "You're so caring" he murmured. I blushed and turned my head so Sirius couldn't see it. I felt him wrap an arm around my shoulders and I couldn't help but feel sparks when he did. I wondered why, I mean Sirius touches me all the time and I never felt this way before... why now? What does it mean? I rested my head against his shoulder and smiled when his finger started to draw patterns on my arm, it was shooting tingles all over and I really wanted to move closer but I didn't want to wake Remus. He looked so content and peaceful.

"Where did James go?" I asked. Sirius shrugged "To put the brooms away" he murmured. I nodded my head and didn't say anything else. "Sirius, don't you wish things could stay like this? Calm and peaceful?" I asked. Sirius nodded "Yeah, it would be brilliant if we could" he murmured softly, kissing the top of my head. I sighed in content and closed my eyes again, all we needed was James and Peter and our little group would be complete. Although, I'm not Peter's biggest fan he kind of freaks me out a bit. Not that I would ever openly admit that, I think Sirius and James would be upset with me. "Hey you lot!" James called out. I opened my eyes and glared, pressing my finger to my lips so he would shut his trap. James blushed and ran a hand through his messy hair "Sorry" he muttered as he came to sit with us. He went on Sirius's other side and lay down on the grass, staring up at the clouds.

"Our Hogwarts letters finally came in" James said after a while.

"Shut it Prongs" Sirius said.

"James, just enjoy the moment." I murmured.

He shut up after that and we all just sat together comfortably, enjoying the company of each other with only the sounds of Remus's breathing in the background.
