"What do you think of this one?" Marlene asked as she held up a dress and Lily walked up to it and frowned at it.

"I'm looking for something a little more like…" Lily said as she looked around the dress shop. Rebecca held up a long white strapless dress. It had a sash of green around the waist with a sweep train and Lily walked over and took it from her.

"I like this." Lily said as she held it up and examined the pleated bodice and corset back of the dress.

"Go try it on." Rebecca said with a smile as she piled the dress in to Lily's arms.

"Alright." Lily said smiling as she made her way to the dressing rooms. Rebecca looked over at Marlene who was leaning up against the counter of the shop. She had been kind enough to open the store of her and Lily to look at dresses after hours for safety. Recently Benjy's parents had been killed and Kellan McDonald had nearly been attacked in the streets by Death Eaters. James and Lily came to the realization that a large wedding might not be the safest option seeing that that it could provoke an attack possibly so instead of having the large dream wedding Lily had always imagined, James' parents had so graciously offered to host the wedding in the backyard.

"It will need a little hemming." Lily called over the stall.

"Hurry up I wanna see it." Rebecca said as she continued to look through the dresses.

"Alright what do you think?" Lily asked as she stepped out and Rebecca turned and stared at Lily in her dress.

"Wow Lily." Rebecca said and Marlene looked over and gasped.

"It looks beautiful on you Lily."

"Do you think so?" Lily asked as she spun around looking in the mirror.

"Yeah, remember that dress we were looking at earlier for me but you said you wanted to match my dress with yours? The green one?"

"Yeah?"

"Well the green isn't exact but we can change up the sash I suppose, what do you think Marlene?" Rebecca asked and laughed. "Listen to me, I sound like I know what I'm talking about."

"No you're right, we could do that right Marlene?" Lily asked hopefully.

"Yeah it should be no problem, this will have to be hemmed up a little but other than that, I think it's perfect." Marlene said as she circled around Lily.

"Do you think this is the one? Or should we keep looking?" Lily asked as she looked at Rebecca.

"I really do like this one but there was that other one you liked with the lace stuff."

"I think I like this one better, plus you can get that green dress unless you would rather go with pink." Lily said with a small smile at Rebecca whose face twitched before she forced a smile.

"Anything for you Lily." She said and Lily gave a small laugh.

"No I think this will do." Lily said as she turned back to the mirror and examined the dress.

"Oh James and I found a place." Lily said as she turned back to Rebecca.

"Really?"

"Yeah its in this place called Godric's Hallow, its perfect, its what I have always dreamed of having, you are going to die when you see it."

"When do you guys move in?"

"We are going to start moving stuff in next week."

"That's wonderful; do you need help with moving?"

"Help would be greatly appreciated."

"I know what its like to move, it's a bitch." Rebecca said and Lily walked back in to the dressing room to change out of the dress.

Remus walked in to Rebecca's apartment and heard an aggravated yell from up the stairs and headed up them and saw her throwing things out of her closet and drawers.

"Where the hell is it?" She snapped, not even noticing him standing in the doorway.

"Something the matter?" he asked and she stopped and turned around to him.

"I can't find my dress I was planning on wearing." She said frustrated as she dug through her drawers before slamming them shut and walking back to her bed and sitting down on it and cupping her face.

"Do you need to wear that specific dress?"

"Yes, yes I need it."

"Becky you have plenty of other nice dresses."

"Well the thing is, my mom bought it for me, therefore my attire would be one thing she didn't have to criticize." She said and he walked over and sat down next to her, trying to think of anything but the skimpy blue lace underwear she was wearing.

"I'm sure something else will do."

"No, Remus it won't." She yelled as she stood up and rubbed her face as she turned back to him. "I'm sorry, its not you, it's my mom alright? She always makes me so crazy" She said and he walked up to her and tried to take her in his arms but she pushed him away.

"Not right now Remus, I just need to find something else decent to wear now or we will be late and she will have one more thing to bitch about." She said and picked through the clothes on the floor and Remus looked around and shoved his hands in his pockets.

"I'll uh be downstairs if you need me then." He said and walked out of her room and headed downstairs.

Rebecca rushed down the stairs pulling her blue shirt on and she searched around her apartment urgently.

"We are going to be so late." She said as she picked a pair of earrings off the counter and flattened her shirt out.

"God damn this needs ironing." She snapped as she stripped it off and grabbed her wand from her purse next to him and with a tap of her wand the wrinkles flattened out and she pulled it back on and looked down at herself and looked at him.

"Can you see my underwear through the pants?" She asked as she turned around and he looked at her white pants.

"No." He said and she took a deep breath and looked at him.

"Let's just try and get through this alright?" She asked and he nodded before she grabbed her purse and slung it over her shoulder and walked over to the fireplace, tapping with her wand to make it expand.

"Alright I'll go first, and then you follow, alright?" She said as she grabbed a handful of floo powder and stepped in to the fireplace.

"Walcott townhouse Residence, New York City." She said and threw down the floo powder before everything started to spin, wind loud in her ears before she tumbled out of a fireplace and laid sprawled across a floor.

She sat up and looked around the room before pulling herself up and dusting herself off. The fire went green and Remus walked out, dusting himself off.

"Rebecca is that you?" A man said before stepping in to the room, his short grey hair brushed back.

"Hey daddy." Rebecca said with a smile as she walked over to him and gave him a hug.

"How are you?" He asked his voice quiet and calm.

"Alright, how are you? You get older every time I see you." She said with a smile and kissed his cheek.

"I'm doing as well as an old man can be." He said smiling and looked at Remus.

"Daddy, this is my boyfriend Remus." She said as she walked him over to Remus.

"Jeff Walcott." Her father said and held out his hand to Remus.

"Remus Lupin."

"It's very nice to meet you; I do hope you have been treating Becky here well." He said seriously and Remus smiled and Rebecca sighed with a smile.

"Yes Dad he has been treating me well." She said and walked over to Remus and took his hand. "Much better than I deserve."

"Alright very good, well I don't suppose we should keep everyone waiting."

"Everyone?" Rebecca asked slowly as they walked out of the living room.

"Yes your mother took the liberty of inviting Katie and Ryan." He said and Rebecca looked at Remus with a frown as they walked down the hall to the patio where everyone was seated.

"Becky." Katie said as she got up and hurried over to Rebecca and hugged her tight.

"It's been so long." She said and looked at Remus.

"Who is this?" She asked and Remus cleared his throat.

"Remus Lupin." He said and held out his hand.

"Katie, I'm sure Rebecca has told you all about me." Katie said and took Remus by his arm and led him over to the table. "You know he kind of looks like Mark." Katie said as she looked back at Rebecca.

"No he doesn't, he looks nothing like Mark." Rebecca said bitterly.

"Mom, Ryan, this is Remus, Becky's…" Katie said and looked at Rebecca.

"Boyfriend." Rebecca said as she leaned against the doorway.

"Yes, her boyfriend." Katie said with a small chuckle and sat Remus down and Rebecca sat down next to him.

"Remus this is Katie's husband Ryan and my mother Violet." Rebecca said and he gave them polite nods.

"Nice to meet you Mrs. Walcott." He said and looked at Ryan. "Ryan."

"Hey Rebecca." Ryan said as he looked at her.

"Hi Ryan." Rebecca said with a curt nod.

"You're late Rebecca, always late." Her mom said and sipped on a cup of coffee.

"Yes hello mom, always nice to see you too." Rebecca said with a forced smile as her father sat down on the other side of her.

"Yes, hello." She said and smiled at everyone. "Well now that Rebecca is here we can eat." Her mom said and everyone started to get some food.

"So how long have you guys been dating?" Katie asked from across the table.

"Uh it's been." Rebecca said as she looked at Remus. "About four months?"

"Yeah sounds about right." He said and she realized he looked very tired, how could she have not noticed it before? With the full moon that night the last thing he probably needed was brunch with her family.

"Well that has to be a record." Her mom said nonchalantly.

"Come on Mom." Rebecca groaned.

"I'm just saying you have had a lot of failed relationships is all."

"For god's sake mom I'm only 18, I've hardly had any relationships."

"Hardly had any relationships? That's rich." She said with a small chuckle.

"Mom can we please not go in to this?" Rebecca growled.

"So what have you been up to lately Becky?" Her father asked quickly.

"Uh. Nothing much, got my Healer license-." Rebecca said and heard a scoff from her mother down the table but ignored it. "I have a few months probation before I get instated there."

"That's great."

"Katie has some great news." Her mother said and everyone looked at her mother before looking at Katie.

"What? Oh." She said with a smile and took Ryan's hand. "I'm pregnant." She said and Rebecca's eyebrows rose up.

"Oh, wow."

"I'm going to be a mommy. Ryan and I are going to be parents." She said and Ryan smiled and kissed Katie's hand.

"Congratulations, Katie, Ryan." Rebecca said with a smile as she laid a hand on Remus' leg and squeezed it lightly and he laid his hand on top of hers.

"Finally going to get some grandchildren here, might be the only grandchild we ever get." Her mom said and Rebecca took a deep breath and turned to her dad.

"So how has work been?"

"It's been pretty good, been working on a big case, very busy these says."

"That's good."

"So Remus what do you do?" Her mom asked.

"I uh." He said and wiped his mouth. "Work in a book store right now." He said and looked at Rebecca.

"I see." Violet said with a raised eyebrow and took a drink of her coffee.

"Ryan got a promotion at work." Katie said with an uneasy smile as she looked at everyone and there was an awkward silence around the table.

"How did you two meet?" Ryan asked.

"We went to school together."

"At Hogwarts?" Ryan asked and she nodded and looked down at her food and gave a side glance to Remus who gave her a reassuring smile and patted her knee. There was an awkward silence around the table as everyone continued to eat.

"I'm going to get some more orange juice. Remus?" She said as she got up and looked at him and nodded towards the house.

"Please excuse us." He said as he got up and walked in to the house with her.

"You weren't kidding." He said as they walked in to the kitchen and she opened the fridge up and glanced at him.

"She usually isn't this bad, I think it's because I have hardly seen them in a year that she feels the need to be such a bitch." She growled as she poured herself another glass of orange juice and put it back and rummaged through the cabinets before pulling out a bottle of Vodka and pouring some in to the orange juice.

"Becky is that really necessary?" he asked and she bit her lip and looked at the bottle.

"You're right." She said and looked at him before pouring some more. "Not quite enough, would you like some?" She asked.

"No thanks, it's a bit early to start drinking." He said and she took a swig from the bottle before closing it and putting it back.

"Its five o'clock somewhere." She said with a smile and pat his chest before walking back to the patio and rejoining the brunch.

"Rebecca you know I was talking to Alex Blaire, you remember him, he works in the ministry and remember last year he said he could offer you a position after you graduated-."

"Why would I want to work in the Ministry? I am a Healer."

"Rebecca a Healer really? Working in the Ministry is a very reputable career-."

"I don't want to work in the Ministry."

"Look at your sister, she is doing very well for herself, I just hate to see you throw your life away like this."

"I can't believe you." Rebecca said as she stood up. "You know I can't believe I thought we could have a decent meal together seeing that we haven't really seen each other since I went off to Hogwarts."

"Well whose fault is that?"

"Why can't you ever just be happy for me and accept me as I am? I am never going to be as perfect as Katie, I know that but I wish being me was good enough for you but it will never be good enough I realize that. Coming here was a mistake, we're leaving." Rebecca said and pushed her chair back and Remus looked at her before pushing his chair back and standing up.

"It was nice to meet you all." He said quickly and walked out after Rebecca who was in the living room.

"Becky-." He said and she held a hand out to him.

"Not right now." She said as she grabbed the pot on top of the fire place and took a handful of floo powder and handed it to him.

"You go first." She said and motioned him towards the fireplace. "I'll see you in a sec." She said and he disappeared through the fireplace and she heard her father's voice.

"Becky, I'm sorry about your mother." He said and she shook her head.

"She will never be happy." She said and hugged her father.

"Maybe next time."

"Yeah, alright." She said sarcastically and walked towards the fireplace and looked at her father before flooing back to her apartment.

"You're awfully quiet." Rebecca said as she fixed up the wounds on his arms and chest from the full moon.

"Am I?" he asked and she nodded before applying the paste to a deep wound and he winced.

"Is there something on your mind?"

"Not really." He said in an off tone and she frowned and wrapped his arm up in a bandage.

"Are you sure?" She asked and he looked up at her.

"Well…never mind." He said and shook his head.

"No, what?"

"There has been something on my mind." He said and she sat down next to him on the bed.

"What's that?"

"It doesn't matter." He said with a shrug.

"Come on, you're usually never this quiet."

"Well I was sort of wondering…how many boyfriends have you had?" he asked and she sighed and rubbed her face. "It's stupid, sorry for asking-."

"No its fine, I can understand where you're coming from." She said and laid back on the bed. "And it's not as bad as it sounds." She said and paused as she counted on her fingers.

"Six."

"Six?" He asked surprised and she nodded.

"How many of them did you…sleep with?" He asked feebly.

"Remus that's all behind me." She said as she sat up and touched his face lightly.

"Did you sleep with Andrew?" He asked and she bit her lip and took a deep breath.

"Yes."

"Why did you guys break up?"

"Well we started dating when we were fourteen and when we were fifteen we got a pregnancy scare and we broke that off and decided to be friends."

"So how many guys have you slept with?"

"Three."

"Oh." He said and looked at the floor.

"Does it bother you?" She asked and he was silent for a moment.

"No."

"Are you sure?"

"Well there is nothing either of us can do about it is there? No point in wallowing on it."

"You haven't been with many girls have you?" She asked with a smile as she took his hand.

"I can't say I have ever been with a girl." He said softly. "A few dates but only because Pads convinced me to go on them, nothing happened though."

"Well that's alright, it means for once I can teach you a thing or two." She said as she kissed his shoulder and smiled at him. "It's nice to have someone to teach rather than you teaching me all the time. It must get exhausting." She said he gave a small chuckle.

"A little." He said and kissed her forehead softly.

"We're going to do what?" Rebecca asked as she stared at Moody.

"It's a suicide mission." Frank said.

"Albus you cant be serious." Dedalus said as he looked across the room at Albus by the window.

"The portkey is essential." Moody said.

"We don't even know what it is; it could be one of a million different things." Marlene said.

"We understand this but it will be here for sure, we might not get another opportunity like this again."

"Is it really worth risking our lives like this?" James asked and looked at Lily who took his hand.

"We need that portkey; it's the only way we are going to find their hideout." Moody said.

"So basically we are breaking in to a house full of death eaters." Fabian said.

"In search of a portkey we know nothing about." Gideon.

"So we can find you- Know- Who's hideout?" Fabian finished.

"Yes." Moody said and whispers arose. "Silence." He said and everyone shut up.

"We are going in groups of five and hiding out until everyone gets there." He said as he placed random objects on the table.
