Shopping at Harrods
If Lily had known this would happen, she would never have brought them here.
Sev was babysitting Harry, and Lily and the Marauders had come to Harrods for Christmas shopping, as it was Harry's first one. Once inside the story, the twenty-year-old men had turned to kids aged five, and Lily was already developing a headache.
Right now, they were in the bookstore, on Remus' demand
"What do you think about this, Lils?" James said from behind her, and Lily turned. "For Harry," he said, waving the set of Jane Austen books.
Lily rubbed her temple. "For the last time, James, Harry's five-month-old!"
James humphed but put the set back.
"I'm all done," Remus said, nearing the couple, Sirius in tow. Lily could have sighed in relief.
They exited the store, and Lily turned to them. "Can we go home now?"
"What?" Sirius cried in outrage. "We haven't even bought anything yet." James and Peter nodded.
Lily could have cried out in frustration. She hadn't ever hated James' bottomless bag so much.
"To the toy store, then," Sirius said, skipping like a kid. James, Sirius, and Peter all ran to the toy store. Lily resisted the urge to strangle herself as she knew this would be pure torture. James and Sirius would most likely buy the whole store out. She turned to Remus, who gave her a pitying look.
