A/N: I am so so so sorry for the long time in between updates! Life got crazy after I put up the first chapter. So here is the second chapter now and I promise I will try to update sooner! Thank you so much for the review enyaro!

The next morning I woke with a start to banging on my door. "Lizzie get up were playing Quidditch today!" It was James. I sighed and rolled over to look at the clock beside my bed it said it was 6:45 in the morning, on a Sunday, in summer. James Potter was dead. I threw the covers off of myself and walked to the door, not caring that I was in shorty shorts and a short sleeved shirt with only a cami on underneath and my hair looking like a birds nest. I threw open the door and glared at James standing there in jean shorts and a green T-shirt with a broom in his hand. Remus and Sirius were standing behind him dressed similarly to James but Remus wearing a long sleeved shirt, they were trying not to laugh. James now looked a little scared from the look I was giving him.

I spoke slowly and quietly trying to keep my annoyance and tiredness to a low level, "James Potter it is 6:45 in the bloody morning, you will walk away from this room right now and not come back until at least eight thirty if you ever want to ever be able have kids." I then shut the door in his face and fell back into bed to sleep for another hour and an a half.

I turned around from the closed door to see Remus and Sirius laughing at me. "Come on guys it's really not that funny." I complained as we started back downstairs to get some breakfast.

Sirius finally calmed down enough to speak, "Prongs it really is, she looked like she was going to murder you. Or in her words make it so you can't have kids." This started another fit of laughter between the two boys.

When we got downstairs to the dining room they were finally done laughing and Remus was able to speak, "We did tell you not to wake her so early, but at least it seems maybe her and Lily will get along."

I had to groan at this, "That's just what I need Evans to be best friends with my sister but still hate me. Remus how are you and Evans on first name basis anyway she hates us for our pranks?"

Remus smirked at us, "Wrong she hates you two for your pranks, she like everyone else in the school thinks you two come up with all the pranks and I just sometimes help. She often asks how I can spend so much time with people like you. Plus we are tied for first in our year so that helps." I just sighed as I sat at the table and grabbed a bagel from the plate, guess we had to wait till eight thirty to get Elizabeth up, and I was going to make Remus and Sirius knock I wasn't risking her wrath again.

I woke up again this time by myself feeling much better than before, I looked at the clock and it read eight fifteen. I could get dressed and get downstairs by eight thirty for James so we could play Quidditch. I opened my trunk and got out clothes for the day, I would get a shower after Quidditch it didn't make sense to get one now and one later. I brushed my hair to get all the tangles out and put it in a high ponytail, I put on a pair of cut off jean shorts and, a orange shirt that I wrote CHB on in sharpie a while ago, not many people would understand but it's from the muggle book series Percy Jackson that I love and stands for Camp Half-Blood. I also put on my blue and white sneakers that I wore yesterday.

I walked out of my room and got half way down the steps when I heard voices, "You knock this time there is no way I'm facing that again." It was James and he was talking to Remus and Sirius.

"Come on Prongs it's eight thirty this time it will be fine, Padfoot and I said six thirty was bad but now it's a reasonable time."

"Yeah, come on Prongs it's not like she's Evans she won't hex you to bits."

"I wouldn't count on that Padfoot did you see the way she looked at Prongs it was a little scary."

"Ugh! You guys are no help! I'll do it but I'm using you two as a shield if she tries anything."

I finally got to the balcony looking down at the three boys in the entrance hall talking they jumped as I spoke, "Aw did I scare poor little James this morning? Well now you know waking me up before eight in the summer can be deadly." I walked down the last flight of stairs and walked over to them before I spoke again, "Just let me get an apple and then we can go play Quidditch okay?" They nodded their heads as they followed me into the dining room. I walked into the room and the table was covered in food eggs, bacon, toast, bagels, donuts, different fruits, cereal, milk and different juices. I just grabbed an apple like I told James I would, "Lead the way to the wherever you play Quidditch."

Remus smirked when he saw my shirt, "Nice shirt, who's your parent?"

I looked at him in a bit of surprise he knew Percy Jackson? "Hermes, god of thieves, you?"

He laughed at that before smiling at me again, "Athena, god of wisdom. But Hermes is also god of travelers, welcomes anyone."

"Yeah but you can never know when to trust them they can be kind but can also turn on you." James and Sirius were looking at us confused having no idea what we were talking about having not read any books.

We walked through the door that lead to the kitchen and it was a smaller room that led to a bigger kitchen, the smaller room that had just a simple table and some chairs around it for the food to sit before they took it out to the dining room to eat, also for the elves to eat at. There were windows on the walls to let lots of sunshine through and a door leading out to an open field. Outside there were six huge goals posts three on each side of a field facing each other, it was a regulation size Quidditch pitch without the stadium seats. Next to the house a little away from the pitch was a shed that I guessed kept the equipment. We walked over to the shed and James opened it inside were six brooms lined up against the back wall, two bludgers chained to the left wall and on the right wall was a Quaffle and a snitch in a case. James handed Remus and Sirius their brooms then handed me one, "This is the spare we keep for guests and stuff, when we go shopping mum and dad can get you your own." He then grabbed the quaffle, and the snitch, "We won't play with bludgers because we don't have enough people so Lizzie and I will be both Seeker and Chaser while you two," he pointed to Remus and Sirius, "will be Chaser and Keeper, Sirius and I against Remus and Lizzie."

We had a few minutes to go over strategies, "Ok Remus we can do this, are you better with defense or offense?"

"Offense I can shoot, and Sirius can be distracted easily, I can do defense but I' not as good. James we have to watch out for though. He might be thinking that that we will do badly because he has never seen you play and he has a big head."

"Ok. We're going to mix things up a bit then; I want us both to search for the snitch not intensely but to keep our eyes open. If you see it say Riptide and point in the direction" I gave him an evil smirk, "We can both be Chaser and I'll be Keeper since that's the position I usually play and I'm good. Deal?"

"Smart plan, let's destroy them." All four of us took off into the air I met James in the air Remus behind me and Sirius behind James. James threw the ball straight up into the air and we went for it. I was faster and grabbed the ball from the air and tossed it to Remus, he would shoot when we could manage it. He took off down the field and I scanned around for the snitch. Seeing no glint of gold but Sirius coming down the field with the ball I was able to trick him thinking I was going right but then turning left and taking the ball right out of his hands and throwing it to Remus who was still by the goals after scoring the first shot. James tried to block but it was no luck just barely an inch out of reach and we scored again. This time it was James coming at me while Sirius stayed by the goals to block, he came at me with this glint in his eyes like he had something planned, he went barley to the right to score in the right goal but I saw him looking to the left post. I went along acting fooled but suddenly turned left to block again and tossed the ball to Remus. This went on for while James got in two good shots when Remus was guarding when I was too far away, but we were up 80-20, I'm not sure how long we were playing but the sun had well risen in the sky and I was getting hungry. It was time to end this. I went up a little higher to scan the field but I could see if I was needed to defend the hoops or Remus needed me. That's when I heard "Riptide!" Remus was slightly nodding to the back door where we came out from the house; I saw it there by the doorknob blending in well with the gold. I turned my broom down and took off; James was soon on my tail I leaned down farther till I was completely straight on the broom we were almost at the door. My arm was out stretched as was James's we were side by side almost there. He was taller than me with longer arms he would get there first the snitch moved down closer to the grass. Then I had a really stupid idea, I jumped. I jumped from my broom as the door opened and crashed into Charlus, James pulled up barley in time to not crash as I swiped the air where the snitch was and I felt the cold metal in my hand. We won.

I got up off of Charlus apologizing profusely but he was just laughing as he stood. By now everyone had come back down to the ground and to see if we were okay. James had fallen to the ground mumbling what sounded like, "no, not possible how did I lose," over and over again.

"Well Prongs you see you lost because we were better, now maybe this will deflate that big head of yours." Remus answered James with a smirk.

All Remus got in return was a scowl before turning to me; "You have to try out for the Quidditch team at school. You're amazing!"

I looked a little stunned at him me good enough? "I don't know…" I said, "I mean I don't even know what house I'm going to be in or anything."

That's where Charlus finally spoke up, "That's actually why I came out, Elizabeth you got a letter from Hogwarts asking you to come in to be sorted tomorrow morning. That way you can just go to your table at school and you can get your robes and ties in the correct colors. And don't worry about what house you are going to be sorted into they are all excellent, even Slytherin," He gave the three boys a stern look. "Also I think you should try out, from the little I saw you're good. Plus if you can beat James you must have talent, especially with Seeker." He went back into the house and while we put our equipment away then followed going inside to get lunch.

I ate a turkey and cheese sandwich at the table with the boys before going upstairs to get a shower. When I came out of my room clean it was to see Remus, Sirius, and James sitting on the floor talking. I smiled at them before I spoke, "Hey boys what are you doing sitting out here?"

James smiled before answering, "We wanted to spend some time getting to know you and prepare you for Hogwarts a bit. We're going to get our school stuff tomorrow after you get sorted, our letters came while you were in the shower. Also tomorrow we are meeting up with Peter and bringing him home for the rest of the summer." He handed me my letter and I scanned it, I would need a few more books than a normal student, like Hogwarts: A History, with me starting in my fifth year and not my first.

James couldn't stop grinning and had a little wild look in his eyes, "Did you get Quidditch captain?" James only smiled wider and started to do a little dance as he laughed and handed me his badge to show me. I laughed a little with him and said congratulations, before I turned to Remus. I didn't forget about him and the whole prefect thing, he just smiled at me and showed me his badge I told him congratulations as well.

"Now Remus can help us with pranks and help us to bend the rules a little depending on who the girl prefect is." Sirius said smiling at his boyfriend fondly.

"Sorry Pads, I don't know how well that will work Lily is the other prefect."

James finally stopped dancing at this, "Wait, what? Evans is prefect? Oh, no! She will be even worse with the rules. How do you even know this Moony? We just got our letters today."

Remus sighed before answering, "I know because Lily is my friend and she owled me while we were all getting showers and she told me she got it and asked if I did. We talked about it last year thinking who it would be so she wanted to know. That's all Prongs promise, and no she did not ask about you." He said the last part like he was tired of saying the same thing.

Who even was this Lily Evans; I've heard her mentioned a few times now. She is obviously friends with Remus, but since Sirius and James use her last name they must not get along too well. But James seems to like her wanting to know if she asked about him. "So who is this Lily Evans and why does she hate you two but not Remus?"

The three looked at me almost forgetting I was there Sirius answered me, "Evans is a girl in our year who James has been in love with since first year. But she can be annoying she always yells at us for our pranks, and she friends with Snivullus who's in our year and is a dirty slimy Slytherin. Plus she hates James because of his big head and because he asks her out at least once a day."

James looked at Sirius offended by this, "She not so annoying and stupid Snivillus she deserves someone better not that greasy Death Eater."

Remus opened his mouth to say something to me but I stopped him, "I know what a Death Eater is, and who Voldemort is trust me not a fan of either."

The three boys looked shocked by this Remus finally spoke, "I'm surprised you used his name and not to be stereotypical but that you seem so disgusted by both."

I looked back defiantly, "One: fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself, two: they are part of the reason I was stuck in that bloody orphanage since I was five. You shouldn't judge people until you really know them."

We all looked at each other for a moment coming to a silent understanding. There was a lot more we had to learn about each other, but in that moment the four of us knew no matter what house I was in and no matter if I stayed with the Potter's or not, we would be friends.

We walked down one flight of stairs going to the family room to where James said Dorea and Charlus were. We spent the rest of the day sitting in the room talking and playing board games like a family. It was a little awkward at first with what happened with the four of us but once we relaxed more it was nice to actually get to be a part of this family. Maybe I could have a little hope.
