Moony's Day
Friday the 11th of March 1977
The party was in full swing and Remus seemed to be having a good time, sat by some girl that was flirting with him in a way that had his cheeks turning pink and a happy little smile on his face.
James and Sirius seemed to have gone all out for their friends 17th, and Hermione knew James was just hoping everyone would do the same for him in a couple of weeks, which they would because no one wanted to deal with the tantrum that came when he didn’t get the attention he ‘deserved’.
“Hey.” Lily appeared by her side, flinging her bag onto one of the chairs and grinning.
Hermione smiled back softly, a calm type of freedom settling through her as Lily reached out to take her cup from her hands and take a sip.
Things hadn’t changed between them when Hermione revealed what she could, what with the wall in her head. Perhaps they had been a bit tenser, and Lily had laughed because what else could you do when your best friend said they held future memories, but once that had died down and the shock had faded there had been nothing but understanding.
And Hermione had felt slightly more free than before. To have two people in the know was a risk but also something of a blessing and one less person she had to hide things from.
“Hi – hows Belby?” Hermione muttered lowly as she took back her cup and took a sip.
“Insufferable but I think he’s making process – he even let me offer some help on aconite today.” Lily spoke with a soft gasp, a hand on her chest as Hermione chuckled to herself.
Belby may be nicer than other Slytherin’s and want to help but he was also still a Slytherin, and a 7th year who thought he knew better than most, even when he had agreed to the help.
“Are you planning on poisoning Remus?” Hermione asked with a raised eyebrow as she looked over to where Remus and the girl were now sat closer together, cheeks more red and eyes slightly glazed.
“No, just something to ease the wolf apparently – I had no idea trying to make your own potion was this complex.” Lily muttered shaking her head as Hermione shrugged her shoulders. “If I do this next year then I’m sticking with a modified version of something.” She added as Hermione nodded her head in agreement.
“You should probably use another poison to counteract the effects of the aconite and a binding agent.” Hermione spoke lowly, it was hard to hear with the music but Lily still heard as she nodded her head in agreement. “And when it’s finished it should have blue smoke.”
Green eyes turned to face her as Hermione frowned, it was like she could almost see the potion before her, faint and distant, someone muttering something but it was almost too far away to make out and she wasn’t going to push herself in a crowded room.
Thankfully Lily didn’t push either as she nodded her head. “Blue smoke, got it.”
“If I remember anything else then I will let you know.”
“Just don’t push it.” Lily spoke back, a crease between her eyes as she ran a hand through her hair and continued speaking, lower than before. “We’ll figure this out, hopefully before the end of the year, but if not then we’ll find another way, but regardless Belby is on ou-”
“Belby?” The two turned, eyes going wide as Sirius, James and Marlene stood before them with matching expressions of confusion as Sirius spoke. “What are you doing with Belby, Evans?”
Hermione cringed and looked to Lily who kept her face calm and her eyes on Sirius, her mouth opening to speak when Marlene got there first.
“Shit, you’re not dating Belby, are you Lils’?”
“What? No!” Lily cried, her cheeks turning red as a few of the party goers turned to look at her. “I’m helping him with a potion – there is nothing else to it, I swear.” Hermione felt her eyebrows raise as Lily turned to look at James, almost pleading with him.
If this had been a few years ago, then her brother would have jumped at the chance, would have asked a million questions about why Lily felt the need to assure him, but instead he simply smiled and nodded his head. “I believe you.”
“Oh good...that’s good.”
A moment seemed to settle between them as they smiled shyly at each other, red cheeked and awkwardly stood and Hermione couldn’t help but grin as she reached out for Sirius, pulling him away from the two idiots and winking at Marlene as she slipped away to another group.
Her hands moved to Sirius’ shoulders as his own settled on her waist as they swayed side to side with the slow song that was playing, much like many other couples.
It was sweet, and she couldn’t stop herself from looking up at his face as he stared down at her.
“So what’s really going on with Evans and Belby?” He asked as he pulled her a step closer, her heart stuttered in her chest and her whole body felt as though it was five degrees warmer.
For a second she allowed herself to be lost in those silver eyes, her hands to play with the hair on the nape of his neck and her body to be softly pressed against his own, and then she spoke, softly and distractedly. “Exactly what she said...potions, so stop worrying and let’s just enjoy our night.”
Sirius eyes hardened and his jaw tensed, for a second she thought he might continue asking questions and pushing the truth that he seemed to think she knew, when he leaned down, his nose brushing against hers. “And how should we enjoy our night?”
Her heart was beating rapidly in her chest and there were a million suggestions she could say but instead she let a coy smile curl around her mouth. “How does anyone enjoy their night? A few drinks, friends, dancing and maybe some snogging.” His eyes glinted as she teased and he leaned in closer.
“I think we could do that.” He was honestly lucky that he was good at the snogging because whatever reply Hermione was about to say left her mind the moment his lips touched hers, and while she would normally be annoyed by that, she couldn’t help but happier that he was kissing her like he was.
...
“Oh look, you finally decided to detach your mouths.” Lily spoke from a small circle of seats as Hermione and Sirius made their way over to her and James.
Hermione chuckled as Sirius sat down and she plopped herself down on his lap, his arms wrapping around her waist and holding her close. It was a wonderful feeling, to take that next step, to dance and kiss without a worry – to actually being together.
“That was the most disgusting thing I have ever witnessed.” James commented as he sipped his own drink, shaking his head and eyeing them with what could only be contempt.
“Maybe you wouldn’t think so if someone was sticking their tongue in your mouth.” Sirius spoke with a smirk, ducking behind Hermione as James threw a pillow towards them. Hermione blinked as the pillow hit her square in the face, sending curls into her face as she glared at her brother.
“Idiot.” She mumbled as she threw the pillow back onto his lap before pushing the hair back and leaning more into Sirius.
“I know I’ve finally given up on stopping this but maybe you could keep it to somewhere where I can’t see.” James spoke with a small pout, Hermione could almost feel Sirius’ mouth curving into a smirk on her back as his hands dug further into her hips, sending tingles up and down her body and her mind thinking back to Christmas.
Lily laughed softly as James turned to face her. “You know you just opened yourself up to some crude joke, don’t you?” She asked as James frowned and turned his words over in his head before he muttered something under his breath.
Hermione smiled, as she reached to grab a couple of drinks from one of the floating drinks, passing one to Sirius. It was red, and no doubt what Lily was drinking and tasted almost like acidic honey, and made her feel like she might want to hack up a lung.
Yet Lily was downing her own like it was water. “How are you drinking this?” She asked as she heard Sirius coughing behind her.
James frowned, looking at their cups. Hermione was half ready to offer her own, anything to get it out of her hand when her brother reached for Lily’s drink and took a sip, her mouth falling open slightly as Lily not only allowed him to take her drink but smiled as he did so, and then took the cup back and drank from it herself.
Not that it was strange for them to share drinks, they did. Far too often to be considered normal, but never James and Lily, and not through lack of trying from her brother but mainly because Lily would never normally touch something James had touched with his mouth.
Hermione opened her mouth to say something, only for Sirius to nearly throw her off his lap with a happy chuckle. “Fuck yes, Moony!” He all but screamed, causing the other to turn and grin.
Remus sat leaning over, his mouth firmly planted on the girl’s he had been sat with, their hands on each others faces. It was slow and slightly sensual and Hermione couldn’t help the way her eye brows raised and the way she leaned even more into Sirius.
“Go Remus.” Lily whispered out, ignoring the looks James and Sirius turned to give her even as her cheeks turned slightly pink.
“You feeling alright, Evans?” Sirius asked after a second, eyebrows raising as Hermione all but laid across him, his arm moving to support her back. It was nice and she was reminded of the times they used to cuddle and fall asleep on the sofa or his bed together. “You look a little flushed – are you perhaps feeling a bit -”
“Shut up.” Lily mumbled, blushing and shrinking into her seat though she didn’t deny it.
Sirius opened his mouth to comment further, only shutting up as Hermione levelled him with a glare and punched his side – his silver eyes turned to her and his bottom lip came out in a pout that had her smiling and leaning forward to place a small peck on his lips.
James groaned behind them as Hermione pulled away, a dazzling grin on her face and a matching one of his face as his eyes darkened slightly and he leaned up to pull her in for another kiss, one with much more passion and far deeper than her own had been, and one that made her stomach clench and her nerves feel like they were on fire.
Slow was the word he had used not a month and half ago, and one she had agreed to. And she had been honest in being slow, hadn’t pushed him any further but it seemed like tonight had cracked open that door she had wanted to bang against for months, and now she couldn’t keep her hands off him – and she didn’t want to.
And judging by Sirius, he didn’t seem to want to either.
“Why is everyone, but me, kissing tonight?” James whined to himself as Hermione and Sirius pulled away to face him, lips redder than before and eyes slightly glazed.
“I’d suggest having one with Marlene for old times sake, if she wasn’t so hooked on my brother and Lily didn’t look like she was going to murder me.” Sirius commented as he played with Hermione’s curls, threading them between his fingers and pulling on them softly.
“I just think you’re being stupid.” Lily commented back but her cheeks were redder than before and her head swivelled around to look at the rest of the students. “Where is Marlene anyway?” She asked softly, as Hermione looked around too, leaning slightly around until she spotted the familiar golden head of hair of their friend.
Marlene stood amongst some girls, speaking about something, a wide grin on her face as she said something and pointed to something on another girl. She seemed happy and content, if not slightly tipsy as she winked.
“Do you think Zach was right?”
"Sorry?" Hermione asked as she turned around to face Sirius. It wasn’t the first time they had spoke about it, but it was clearly something that had been on their mind as everyone looked to one another, not uncomfortably but curiously. “I mean we’ll never know unless we ask – I just don’t think we should.” Hermione added as Lily nodded her head in agreement.
“I agree, she can like who she wants, but if she is then why wouldn’t she feel like she could tell us?” Sirius asked with a frown, not seeming angry but more confused.
“Why didn’t you tell us what was going on with your parents until Hermione and James got you out of there?” Lily asked softly, raising an eyebrow.
"That's not the same thing." He muttered under his breath.
"It isn't no, but you were scared. Maybe Marlene, if she is bisexual or gay, is scared to tell, certain people wouldn't be as accepting as we are." Lily told him and Hermione couldn’t help but agree. The Muggle world, nor the Wizarding world, was known for being accepting of being attracted to the opposite sex.
It was something to be kept a secret, something to be hidden under marriages and children in order to continue along the family name. Something to be ashamed of. And while Hermione might not be attracted to women, she could understand what it was like to feel ashamed of who you were – or in her case who she was connected to.
Yet, she couldn’t imagine how that was for people like Benjy, or possibly for Marlene – even if she was with Regulus and smitten.
"Gryffindor would be."
"Sirius, well I admit their might be some people in here that will be alright with the idea or at the very least not stupidly repulsed, the majority of people will following in their parents stupid idiotic notions that being gay is a bad thing when in reality it isn't in the slightest, you like or love and feel attracted to whoever you do." Lily told him as she took another sip from her drink, speaking as though to a child.
"I know that and other people know that."
“You do know that up until ten years ago it was illegal to be gay, and even though now it might be legal in everywhere in Britain aside from Scotland, that doesn’t mean that people still think it’s ok.” Lily spoke, rolling her eyes and taking another sip of her drink before she started speaking again. “Adding to the fact that they can only consensually agree to something when over the age of 21, and everything else has to be kept to the privacy of their own home is disgusting.”
“That's stupid, nobody does anything sexual legally anyway." Sirius spoke as Lily nodded her head and Hermione frowned. It was beside the point, but Sirius also had a point, one that spoke about people making their own choices.
"Well no, but for people who aren't interested in the same sex and one of them isn't an adult and are close enough to the age of consent, it means no one will bat an eye or maybe you'll get a slap on the wrist and a telling off from your parents, we won't get thrown in jail or beaten up because of our preferences." Lily told him, her words sounding harsher now as she shook her head and her eyes found Marlene again.
"How do you know so much about this?" James asked softly, looking at Lily with something akin to admiration that made Lily smile sadly.
“I had this friend when I was about eight, she was lovely, and always adamant that girls were so much prettier than boys, which I didn’t think anything about – when you can do strange things then your friend having a crush on some girl down the road doesn’t seem like a big problem.” Hermione frowned, trying to figure out where the story was going before Lily was speaking again. “One day, my aunt came down and heard her, said some cruel things – horrible things really.”
“Oh shit.”
“I remember feeling so angry, that I shouted at my parents and my aunt, my parents tried to explain that sometimes it’s better to be quiet even if you disagree, which was the biggest load of bullshit I’d ever heard, and they agreed but I think they only started to really see the difference when we were told what I was.” She spoke softly but there was an air of sadness around her. “Thus I thought it would be best to study what I could so that I could see what I could do to help.”
“You’re the most amazing and kindest person I’ve ever met.” James all but whispered as Lily turned to look at him with wide eyes, bright and shining, and she didn’t even flinch as his hand moved to rest on top of hers.
Hermione smiled and hold back her retort that she would have normally said about her brother favouring someone else over her. “Well thank you for educating us, though we are nothing like your aunt.”
“No, she sounds more like my rather delightful bigoted family, who I think would combust if you tried to explain to them that love is love, and Muggleborns are people like them.” Sirius mumbled, taking a sip from his drink before coughing and holding it out. “Someone take this away from me.”
It was unfair really that so many people seemed to luck out in the family department, herself included, but perhaps none of it could really be compared to Sirius’ complete lack of family on his side. Hermione at least had James and her parents, Marlene had a couple of her brothers, Remus had his own parents and Lily did too.
But Sirius was quite alone, him and his brother were still partially at odds, his cousin was all but in hiding and the only uncle he ever had any respect and love for was dead.
A wave of sadness hit her as she curled further into him, running a hand over his cheek and trying to smile as her turned his confused eyes onto her.
...
The party was coming to an end as students stumbled up the stairs towards their doors, or attempted to try and sneak back to their own common room, leaving behind a mess that had Hermione frowning.
She was sure someone would come and clean it while they were asleep but she had never been the one to leave things behind for someone else to do, and it seemed neither had James as they both got to work, far too early in the morning, and began cleaning and vanishing things.
It didn’t take long and eventually the two moved closer to the fire where Sirius, Marlene and Lily all sat on the sofa nursing drinks.
“Thanks for the help.” James bit out as sat by the coffee table on the floor, rolling his eyes and stretching out his legs, Hermione copying him on the other side.
“Anytime.”
“Where’s the birthday boy?” Hermione asked with a frown as she looked around the room, empty except for them with no Remus in sight. She had seen him earlier around the time they made him blow out the candles on his cake but then she had lost sight of him.
Right around the time Sirius had pulled her into a corner and distracted with a kiss that made her whole body vibrate and her brain feel slightly more drunk.
Sirius chuckled lowly in his seat as Lily blushed and Marlene smirked, Hermione opened her mouth to ask what had happened to them but Marlene was already speaking. “He’s a bit busy at the moment, though I do think he is enjoying his birthday.”
Hermione felt her eyes widen as a grin took over her face. She was aware that Remus wasn’t completely innocent, he had done it before but he had never been the sort to brag about it, just a smirk here and there and a shake of his head at the refusal to tell them who it was. His was private with his bedroom activities and Hermione could respect that.
But she also knew that meant that it wouldn’t be likely to try and sneak up to the boys dorms later with Sirius and see what happened, or even cuddle.
“Guess that means we are stuck down here.” James sighed out as he slumped back against the chair. “Merlin, between these two sticking their tongues down each others throat and Remus upstairs, I just can’t catch a break.” He pouted as he rubbed a hand over his face.
“It’s not like me and Hermione are like this everyday.” Sirius mumbled back as Hermione nodded her head and secretly hoped that would change but she wasn’t going to bring that up now.
“And it’s Remus’ birthday, if there is any time to be a bit slaggy then it’s today.” Lily responded as James frowned, before a soft smile took over his face as she reached down to ruffle his hair. “So stop pouting and let’s have some fun.” A grin took over her face as she slipped from the sofa to sit beside him, cheeks red and eyes shining.
“There you go, Prongsie, it looks like your night is starting to look up.”
“Fuck off.” James snapped at Sirius as he chuckled and reached down to play with Hermione’s hair. “I just want to lay down in my bed.”
“When did you become so boring? It’s only half one in the morning!” Hermione spoke, surprising even herself. It was very rare that she was the one wanting to stay awake and continue the party – normally she was fine with heading off to bed after a couple of drinks and going to sleep.
“It’s been a long day.” James spoke, looking at her with a frown.
“Well then be my guest – though I doubt you’ll get any sleep with Remus moaning like he is.” Sirius spoke with a wide grin as Lily and Marlene laughed.
“And whoever he is calling him an animal between what sound like quite pleased sighs.” Marlene added as Lily slapped her arm with another laugh.
“You three are disgusting – did you just stand at the door listening?” James asked in disgust as the three continued laughing, shrugging their shoulders as though it was normal to listen to your friends doing their private business.
“Only for like two minutes but then it started to get a bit intense and it seemed like they were going to be going a while so we came back downstairs – you would have noticed if you weren’t so focused on your cleaning.” Sirius spoke as Hermione sent him a quick disgusted look that had him smiling sheepishly at her.
“Perverts.”
“Voyeurism is the correct word, and it can’t be helped when Remus is the only one in this group who is getting shagged.” Marlene spoke though her cheeks turned red and her icy eyes shifted away from the Potter’s glare. “Merlin, I miss sex!” She added as an after thought.
“Hm.”
“Hermione!”
“What! I wouldn’t have to agree with her if someone hadn’t decided to take it slow.” Hermione mumbled under her breath, waving her arm towards Sirius who let out a little choked response, silver eyes wide as she smirked at him.
“See that would have made me have more respect if you weren’t tonguing my sister half of the night.” James spoke, glaring at Sirius who seemed to get over his quick moment of shock to wink at James.
“And what a good night it was.”
“And it could still be – come on guys, just because the birthday boy has gone doesn’t mean we have to lay down and sleep too.” Hermione cried as she moved over to the little table that was full of bottles, picking things up and looking at the labels. She presumed that some of these were Muggle drinks because she had no idea what Martini was, shrugging she opened up the bottle and brought it to her lips, regretting it as soon as the liquid swam into her throat.
“What is happening?” James asked shocked as he pushed himself off the floor.
“I fancy a fun night – when was the last time we actually had the common room to ourselves and were able to sit down and act like normal teenagers for a change?” Hermione whispered the last part to James, giving him a pointed look before she turned back to the drinks, sorting through the bottles.
“I agree, personally this night has been a blast and I’m not quite ready for it to end just yet.” Lily agreed with a grin as she skipped to stand between Hermione and James, a knowing glint in her eyes before she turned to Hermione. “What are you making?”
“No idea.”
Sirius sighed as he moved to stand beside them and stared down at whatever Hermione had poured in the cup, she couldn’t quite tell nor remember, his eyebrows raised.
“Move ladies, leave the mixology to the professionals.”
Hermione should have known those words would only end in forgetting half of the night.
...
Saturday the 12th of March 1977
Hermione was aware of three things when she woke up. One that she wasn’t in her own bed, two that she wasn’t alone, and three that she was only wearing what she hoped was a large t-shirt, and there was a hand resting pretty close to her arse.
The night before was hazy at best, and it made her stomach turn to even try to remember what had happened or why she was asleep up here instead of in her own bed, or even the common room.
The hand moved slightly down her thigh followed by a groan that didn’t match the action and making her risk opening her eyes to see one silver one looking at her, a mixture of relief and pain in them as Sirius tried to smile even as it seemed more like a grimace.
“Morning.” He rasped out slowly, wincing one more at whatever pain it caused.
“Did we have sex?”
“No, you didn’t – thank Merlin.” The two looked up and groaned in unison to see Remus stood at the foot of his bed an annoyed smile on his face and his arms crossed over his chest. “Just barged into the room at five o’clock, took off your clothes and put on one of Sirius’ tops and that was it.”
Sirius’ arm moved to her waist, pulling her closer and glaring at his friend. “You better not have taken a sneak peak, Moony.” He growled out as Remus rolled his eyes and Hermione gave a happy little smile.
“Yeah, Moony.” Hermione raised her eyes to where her brothers voice had called out, her eyes going wide as she rested on her elbows and kicked Sirius’ leg with her foot, their eyes turning to her brothers bed where he laid, hands behind his head and glasses still on his face, but it was who was with him that had them gasping.
Lily, cuddled up into his side, head resting on his chest and arm clutching his shirt tightly, a content smile on her face as she breathed softly. It was quite cute, and for some reason she could almost see another couple there – the skin colour was slightly off, and the girls red hair, but it might as well be the same thing.
She wanted to take a picture or something to commemorate this moment or to tease Lily with lately but the idea of moving from the bed made her want to throw up.
“I didn’t do anything, I was a bit too distracted with who else was trying to get into my bed.” He spoke, rolling his eyes and gesturing to his own bed where Marlene was curled under the sheets with a happy little smile, but her icy eyes were open and on him.
“I didn’t know you had someone else in there – and what was I supposed to do – climb in bed with that lot?” Marlene asked as though it was obvious as Remus narrowed his eyes at her.
“You could have slept in your own bed.”
“I was drunk, honestly still am, but there was no way I was walking down those stairs alone without dying.” Marlene answered back, flopping back onto Remus’ pillow with a grin and pulling the duvet up to her chin.
“Fine but you didn’t need to lift up the covers and start laughing!” Remus exclaimed as Hermione winced and brought a hand to her head. There was no need to start shouting and no need for her head to feel like it was splitting open.
“I was surprised that you were sleeping naked, it’s not everyday I get to see little Remus – though not so little…” Marlene spoke, adding an exaggerated wink that had Remus’ cheeks turning pink.
“Don’t you have a boyfriend?” He asked after a second.
“Until he asks, not really, but I was simply admiring – it’s not like I reached out and grabbed your cock, and I did say I was sorry and put the cover down.” Marlene spoke, sitting up once again and shrugging her shoulders though her own cheeks seemed rather pink. “I tried to tell your date that but she was gone before I could ask her name.” She added with a pointed look.
“Why would she want to stick around with four drunk idiots come stumbling around the room and another one trying to climb into bed with us – I mean what if we were doing something?” Remus pointed out as Hermione frowned and Sirius scoffed.
“Well lucky for me you weren’t.” Marlene spoke back, rolling her eyes and running a hand through her messy golden hair. “Though is that why you are upset now, was my cuddling not enough – did I ruin your chance at a morning shag?” She asked dramatically, placing a hand on her chest as Remus blushed again.
“What – maybe – fuck off.”
Hermione couldn’t stop the laugh that bubbled out of her chest, nor the sympathy she felt.
Remus had never been the sort to go after a girl, he didn’t quite want to believe that he could be in a relationship with someone and not tell them he was a werewolf, nor was it something he wanted to risk. So he settled for random dates and a standoffish approach that only brought in people who wanted one thing from him.
Something he was happy to give, but even that was rare. Thus she could imagine the annoyance that came with friends ruining a possible moment for him.
“Sorry Remus, I wasn’t trying to ruin anything.” Marlene spoke softly as the annoyed look from their friends face seemed to melt away and in place the familiar smile took over.
“You didn’t.” He spoke softly before looking back over to Hermione and Sirius, still wrapped up in their tangled embrace. “Though I am curious as to what you all drank last night to get so pissed.”
“Whatever Sirius threw together – honestly it’s all a bit of a blur.” Hermione answered, wincing as she moved, pushing the pillow back against the headboard and trying not to blush at the way Sirius’ hand trailed down her leg and rested on her knee.
It was slightly intimate, wrapped in bed and half dressed – something that they hadn’t had when they cuddled platonically, or even the morning after they slept together. It almost felt couply now, like this was where her mornings were supposed to be and this was how they should have always woken up together – though preferably without their friends in the same room.
“Ah, makes sense, I thought I said you weren’t allowed to mix drinks any more?” Remus asked Sirius as he finally moved to sit up beside her.
“Well you weren’t there.”
“Fair enough, so what plans do we have for the rest of the day?” Remus asked as he sat at the edge of Sirius’ bed, stretching out his arms and wincing at the pops his joints made.
“Nothing but stay here and sleep.” James muttered, his eyes closed and his glasses slipping down his nose but a little smile on his face as his hand played with Lily’s hair.
“Maybe you could all take a shower.” Remus teased and Hermione winced in agreement. Drinking whatever she had didn’t help the smell of what was most certainly a worn t-shirt of Sirius’, soft against her skin but also not clean.
“Maybe you could be a good friend and get us some food and water since you seem to be the only one that can stand on two legs – and maybe help us figure out how to wake up sleeping beauty over there.” Sirius rasped out as he nodded his head towards Lily before turning to rest his head into the crook of Hermione’s neck and snaking his arms around her.
Hermione couldn’t stop the blush that spread through her cheeks as Remus smirked at them, but she couldn’t stop the grin on her face either as she raised a hand to run through his hair, feeling his grumbled of agreement.
“I’m awake, just don’t want to open my eyes, but I wouldn’t say no to a coffee – and neither would James since he just whispered it to me.” Lily spoke, eyes still closed and a slightly pained smile on her face. “And once I can open my eyes I am going to kill you, Sirius.” She added as Sirius laughed slightly.
"Please do, I can't take this hangover any more."
