It's all over in the end...I can die of humiliation ---TBD

I rolled my eyes, sure that they were already thinking that.  "You two are impossible," I muttered, shaking my head and leading the way to the lake.  I saw everyone out there and smiled, glad that we were all enjoying ourselves.  I went over to Chloe and took off my cover up and spread a towel down onto the sand next to her.  "Hey lady," I said to her, laying out in the sun.  She had the right idea.

When Mum came over, I left the two of them.  That way they could gossip -- I knew that was what they would end up doing.  I ran across the dock and dove into the refreshing water.  My head rose above the surface and I saw Lucy and Lenni talking to each other.  I could not help but smirk.  They had to be gossiping about Uncle Remus.

Elena S. T. Black Weasley wrote:Mum and I had gotten to the Lupin's I went to find Lucy in a hurry as Dean and dad were meandering around the house as Remus was with dad mostly as I reared around to avoid my father, not so much Remus. Just my dad and brother, thankfully I saw Lucy and dived out of the way before my dad could make a joke. " Thank Merlin!"

I laughed when I saw Elena's face.  "Trouble?" I teased, looking past her and to the rest of her family who had come out of the house.  "I'm guessing that they've found out."  I could tell by the looks of glee on Dean and Uncle Sirius's faces.

I nodded at her as I pulled her away from my father who looked like a kid in a candy store, " It is ridiculous....I mean they have made a new term for tear the mickey out of someone." I said as I brought her outside again. To the nearby tree, " I swear if you were to have a crush on my dad it would be nice...but they would never find out!" I urged myself to not scream.

I rolled my eyes.  "We're not that impossible," I called after Ember.  I turned to my best mate.  "We really are, though."  I smirked, looking past him and see our daughters whispering to each other.  "So... what are you going to do to her?" I asked him, thinking that Sirius had to have a plan up his sleeve.  I would help him if he wanted it.  I was a marauder after all, these things did entertain me.

I grinned, " I am not a mean father. Just one who enjoys a little merciless teasing from time to time...." I said as I attempted to keep a straight face. Amazed that I could pull it off. " I mean, really she would think you would tease her yourself or something." I pointed out as we walked out of the house. " So, I heard about your little fan club." I said as I teased Mooney. " Who knew you still had it in you."

I smiled as Dean came over and gave me a hug, " Well it's good to know I am a lucky one." I said to my godson. His mother and my friend came over to us. " Hiya." I said as I looked over to her as she joined me. " It's a great idea eh?" I asked her with a smile as I stretched. This is definitely a good way to enjoy the day. Dean walked off and jumped into the water. " So, how badly have they been teasing her?"

I always put up a front of modesty in front of the ladies, but with sirius, it was rather hard to do.  I swear, they turned me into one of them after all these years.  I smirked at him.  "Yeah... I know," I said, shaking my head.  "It really boosts my egotistical side... though, I can't say I enjoy it being school girls anymore."  I laughed slightly.  There was a day when that would have been a dream for me -- to be as popular with the school girls as Sirius and James.  "And, well, I would tease her but as I am the only one who can really help your daughter from being a menace at Hogwarts, I have to tread carefully."

I sighed and shook my head.  "It hasn't been as badly as I expected," I said, worried.  "Which makes me wonder what they really have planned."  I propped myself on my elbows to see everyone in pairs talking... and that made my worries deepen.

I laughed and shook my head.  "Yeah, well... it was bad enough when Dad and Will found out I had dated Dean or a little bit," I said, sighing.  I remembered what they did to me when they found that out.  It was horrid.

I nodded remembering that time like it was yesterday. " I know what you mean...Dad had to stop them from killing Dean repeatedly. " I told her with a smile. It was funny how our family acted with one another. This was one of the regular days at the Black and Lupin household was everyone tearing the mickey out of one another.

I nodded.  "I know... and it had to happen right when your dad escaped, too... at least Dean was able to have someone on his side," I pointed out.  "No one was going to kill Uncle Sirius when he had all of England looking for him."  I could not help but laugh slightly at that thought.

Laughing, " That is a fair point.....its nice she can turn to you. I guess you just have a vibe from what I've heard. " I explained as I wriggled my eyebrows at him with a smirk. " Lenni told me that a few of the Gryffindors have gotten detention in your class on purpose."
