Epilogue: 4 Years Later

"Lily, Harry is perfectly old enough to ride on a broomstick," sighed James. "You've let him do it before."

"Yes, on a toy one! How could you even think about letting him ride on a real one!"

"Lily, listen to me," James said sternly. "Sirius, Remus, and I will be flying right around him the entire time. You're over-reacting."

"Oh am I! I most definately am not! Kat will back me up on this! Kat? Won't you?"

"I'd rather stay out of this."

"Ugh! And I am left standing alone again."

"Oh c'mon James. Let's get into the air and let Lily get over her red-head tissy fit on the ground," said Sirius, leaning on his broomstick.

All five of them were on the Hogwarts Quidditch field in the middle of summer, after asking Dumbledore if they could use it to teach Harry how to fly.

"Look, Lily, if it makes you feel any better, we'll play a quick game to show Harry how it's done," suggested Remus.

She pondered this for a moment, "Fine. Go inside and get a Quaffle."

"I'll get it," said James and Sirius at the same time.

"Go ahead, both of you."

James and Sirius raced to the Quidditch supply room. Inside they saw the Gryffindor trophy cupboard. Sirius walked towards it slowly. There, right in the middle, was the trophy for the Hogwarts Quidditch Champions of 1976 when they had been on the winning team in fifth year. In the center, was printed James Potter, Seeker and next to it was Sirius Black, Keeper.

"Hey, James look at this. It's the old trophy from our glory days," said Sirius and James walked over, Snitch in one hand, Quaffle in the other.

"Yep, those were the Hogwarts days alright."

"Weird that we're both going to be married soon...that is if she says yes."

It took James a second and then he stared at Sirius, atonished. "You're going to propose?!"

"Yep. It's the left knee on the ground, right?"

"Oh, Sirius! I can't believe this. C-Congrats!"

"I guess we aren't that young anymore."

"Sirius, you can say that when you're thirty-eight. Not when you're not even twenty-five."

"So much has happeed though, in just five years. You married, had Harry, Peter died, Snivellus went to Azkaban, you and Remus became Professors at Hogwarts, I started dating Kat, I got a job at the Ministry of Magic..."

"Yes, I guess that's all true. Doesn't seem like it though."

"Seems like we've been living in a dream."

"Something like that," James smiled and so did Sirius.

Just then, Remus walked in. "Did you guys get lost or something? C'mon!"

Sirius, James, and Remus all walked onto the field, as if they were fifteen years old again.
