"Lily! The electric is off again." Remus shouted throughout the pitch black flat. It had been happening for the past three weeks and she refused to call the electrician because the one that they always sent was the guy that had 'fallen in love' with her. She found him overbearing and creepy whilst Remus thought it was kind of sweet but occasionally creepy.
"Damn it and I thought we'd fixed it the last time." Remus snorted, flicking on his torch and walking out of their small study and library. "I'm not calling him."
"We have to. They're the closest we have and if you want to have some light and be able to use the microwave, then you're going to need to call him."
"But the electric is out." He rolled his eyes and waved his mobile at her. "Fine. But when he hits on me, I'm going to burn your food."
"You do anyway." He responded without thinking and tried to dazzle her with his smile so that she wouldn't kill him. It failed and she stalked forward until he was backed up against the wood of the front door. "But I love the taste."
"Just ring him." She sighed, collapsing onto the settee and turning off her torch.

"Thanks for coming." Remus greeted, opening the door to reveal their personal electrician, James Potter. "It seems we've lost power again." James nodded, walking into the flat and smiling at a disgruntled Lily.
"You look radiant as ever. But I'm not here for you today." He stalked out of the room before she could make a response, down the familiar route to the box where he worked. Lights were on only minutes after and everyone seemed to sigh with relief. "Well, that's got to be my new record." James said, chuckling and Remus was sure he saw Lily quirk a smile.
"Staying for dinner?" Lily asked before she could help herself and smiled softly when James nodded an affirmative, watching as she sashayed out of the room before he turned to Remus.
"The box was tampered with." James told him, taking note of Remus' innocent expression. "Looked like a masterpiece if I say so myself." Remus nodded, biting back his laughter. "Here's your twenty quid and Sirius is waiting for you downstairs for your date."
