"Yeah?" Skye smirked back. "Wanna tell me about your little girl problem?"

Harry blushed instantly and slipped into a steep dive on his broom.

"YEAH!" Skye yelled. "That's what I thought!"

Skye grinned and shook her head. Oh Harry, she thought. If only you knew what I have up my sleeve.

The Potter's were sitting at breakfast the next morning when Skye decided to put her plan into motion.

She nodded slightly to Suzie who beamed brightly back at her sister, before turning to her eldest brother. Suzie tapped Harry on the shoulder and waited until she had his full attention before beginning her speech.

"Do you like Skye's boyfriend?" she asked seriously.

Harry looked a little surprised but answered anyway.

"I like that he makes her happy," he replied carefully.

The Potter children had learnt quite early to never say they hated, or even disliked, anyone within their mother's hearing. Lily despised the feeling, strongly believing that hate was what caused the most problems in the world.

"Do you think Skye's happy?" Suzie continued.

"Of course she is," Harry said instantly.

"Because of Draco?"

"Partly I suppose," Harry shrugged.

"So having a boyfriend makes Skye happy?" Suzie continued her tirade of questions.

Harry hesitated. He knew that it wasn't so much the fact she had a boyfriend, rather that said boyfriend loved her, that made Skye happy, but he wasn't quite sure how to explain that to a four year old.

So, instead, Harry went for the easy option which was, ultimately, his biggest mistake.

"Yeah," he said.

"So if you had a girlfriend you'd be happy?" Suzie asked, eyes wide.

"Er," Harry faltered. "I guess."

"So why don't you? You like a girl don't you?" Suzie as innocently as only a four year old could.

Harry instantly turned to glare at his twin who was talking animatedly with Iris about her new relationship with Daniel.

"You trying to burn holes through my head or something?" Skye asked, noticing her twin.

"You think this is funny do you?" Harry snarled. "Cause guess what? It's not!"

Harry got up and stomped noisily from the room. Grinning, Skye passed her sister a block of Honeydukes chocolate.

"Don't eat it before meals," Skye warned.

Suzie nodded happily. "I did a good job didn't I?" she asked.

"Course you did," Skye laughed. "You're the best actress I know!"

Suzie beamed in response to Skye's praise and left the table, no doubt to hide her newest block of chocolate. Skye smiled at her little sister. And stage one is complete!

Skye went around her tasks for the day with a new bounce in her step. Nothing could dampen her spirits; not even the fact that Harry was refusing to talk to her.

Lunch commenced and with it stage two.

"Harry," Lucas asked cautiously. "What happens when you get older?"

"Umm," Harry hesitated. "Why don't you ask Dad?"

"Dad will tell Uncle Sirius," Lucas explained slowly, as if Harry should have realised that. "I don't want him to tease me."

"Well," Harry began uncertainly. "I suppose you finish school, get married, have a family."

"You have to pick a person to have a family with yeah?" Lucas asked.

"Duh," Harry eyed his brother. "It's not like you get paired off with someone."

"You should start experimenting with girls in order to know you've picked the right one then?" Lucas questioned, deadpanned.

"Sure," Harry shrugged. "Only when you get a bit older, though. Like my age, for example."

"So have you started?" Lucas asked.

Harry's eyes flashed as he groaned.

"It was just a question," Lucas defended.

"Well don't ask it!" Harry snapped.

"Be nice to your brother," James admonished.

"I'll be nice to Lucas when you tell him to quit barging into my fucking life!"

With that, Harry stormed away from the table, ignoring his parents' protests.

"Well," Jono raised an eyebrow. "That was interesting."

"Very," Lily said tightly. "He knows not to speak like that in front of the littlies."

"Ooh," Mickey grinned. "Harry's in trouble."

Skye bit her lip to stop her from laughing out. She didn't want to draw attention to herself, as she would most likely be questioned about Harry's odd behaviour.

She knew that Harry would be extremely angry with her for the next couple of days, but she honestly couldn't care less. The sooner he got himself the girl he had been crushing on, the sooner he would stop moping about. And so, Skye decided, the pros outweighed the cons.

"Do you know what that was about Skye?" James asked, and Skye groaned internally.

She hated the fact that everyone thought she knew Harry's every emotion, and the reason behind it, just because they were twins. Sure, she probably knew him better than anyone else, and him her, but that didn't mean she was a mind reader.

"No," Skye lied. "I think he's just going through a bit of a rough patch."

"Oh no," Lily gasped. "Will he be alright?"

"Of course he will, Mum," Skye rolled her eyes. "It's nothing fatal."

"Damn," Iris grinned. "And here you were getting my hopes up."

Skye laughed with her sister.

"I know," she agreed. "I was disappointed too."

The girls burst into a fresh round of laughter, and Lily looked at them disapprovingly, but couldn't stop a small smile from tugging at the corners of her mouth.

"You shouldn't tease your brother," she said.

"That's right girls," James continued. "Especially when he isn't around to fight back."

James ducked to avoid the playful slap Lily aimed at him.

"Never," James warned his sons. "Never anger a red head."

"Or a black-head!" Iris reminded her father. "Or however you say it."

"So true, so true," Jono grinned at his sisters. "They all hit like girls."

"HEY!" Four different voices cried.

Jono smirked and ducked from the room to avoid the insults that were being rapidly hurled at him. The younger three, however, simple ate on; the conversation going completely over their heads.

A/N So what did you think of Skye's plan? She's evil; I know. Please review?
