"Trouble usually finds me"
"That's not what I meant, Lily," James muttered. His wife stood, one hand on her hip, staring at him from across the room. He hung his head like a dejected puppy before she giggled slightly.
"You're impossible to stay mad at, but don't remember I said that," she told him, taking three long strides across the room and settling into the couch next to James, pulling him down to sit next to her.
"Yes ma'am," James said, leaning over to kiss her cheek. She swatted him away and glared slightly with those beautiful green eyes before returning to her previous, relaxed pose.
"You aren't getting out of trouble that easy, Potter," she teased, before turning serious. "How in Merlin's name did you two think that invading the Muggle world decked out in Gryffindor Quidditch robes was a good idea? You both got arrested, for heavens' sake. They thought you were some sort of satirical terrorists or something."
"Well, yeah, but it was fun! And anyway, we weren't actually aiming to end up in that Muggle mall or whatever it's called, we were apparating when Moony tried to grab my broom so we couldn't do anything stupid and got thrown off," he explained hastily, making lights explode from the tip of his wand as he spoke. Lily sighed and dropped her head into her hands.
"Give that man an award for putting up with you two for seven years."
James grinned at the thought of Remus' attempts to stop them from doing stupid pranks. "Half the time it wasn't even our pranks though, we just got blamed for them!" Lily peered up at him through her fingers.
"We both know that's a lie."
