How do you feel when someone disturbs your peaceful time?
You feel agitated, angry and wanting to murder the intruder of your peace, right? Now it's not a good thing to wake up like that honestly,  but what can someone do when they are woken up from their peaceful slumber?
That's how I wake up on a Saturday morning of 1975. To be more precise August 13 1975.

It's already a curse to live with your brother and one of your best friend in a same house (it actually isnt but when they decide to intrude your privacy, than it is). On top of that, they made it their personal agenda to wake me up before 10 in the holidays. That's not it. They jump on my bed to wake me up  or they conjure water to do so. Today they both jumped on my bed. The bed was enchanted not to break, if it wasn't, well someone would be sleeping on the floor.

"WHAT THE HELL, SIRIUS?!" I, Cassiopiea Walgbura Black, shout on the fine morning.  I pull the comforter back up and wrap it around me.
"Up, sleeping beauty."  Comes the voice of my idiotic brother from somewhere near my right.
"Oh please. Lemme sleep for some more time." It was quite late when I slept last night.
"Who told you to stay up till 3?" This is a new voice. My mind was so hazy from being woken so abruptly that it took me 2 mins to realise it is the voice of one of my besties, James Fleamont Potter.

Somethings to remember about James:-
1) He is crazy about Quidditch.
2) He is a chaser for the Gryffindor team.
3) He is one of the Marauders.
4) He is in love with Lily Evans (one of my really close friends). Though she hates him.
5) He is really kind-hearted.  His parents are amazing.  They let me and my idiotic twin. To live with them till we find our own place. 
6) His father is heck of a potioneer. He made quite alot of potions and creams. One of the most famous one is the Hair styling cream.
7) James father, Fleamont potter, is more of a father to me and my brother than,  Orion Black. The excuse of a father.

Now back to me trying to get sleep. "What time is it morons?" Those idiots are trying to pull my comforter. How rude of them.
"9:45 am." James says. "Oh also. Mum made waffles today." That had me running to the bathroom.  I don't like or love waffles, I adore them and also have an obsession with them. Like who can't love them?

Staying with the Blacks had a few advantages.  Like we can multitask, constant vigilance (like Moody says. I have met him once and let me say it, it wasn't good.) Staying at Grimmauld 12 also bought me and Sirius closer. I am truly thankful for that. Me and Reggie were really close too. But when I was sorted into Gryffindor,  we drifted apart. The houses are not going to come between the love of me and my siblings, right? Well that's bullshit. 

So I was multitasking. Putting on my clothes while brushing my teeth. Oh also, I took a really really quick shower. Only 2 mins. That's a new record. After maybe another 5 minutes I was done. Now time for my waffles.

After taking two steps at once, I finally reached my destination. 
There on the kitchen table, the mouth watering waffles were waiting for me to devour them. They looked so tasty, so sweet, so lovel-. I was brought back to reality when James called out my nickname "Howls, you just gonna stare at them? Or are you going to eat them?" Ah well when he has asked me, why to disappoint him?

I took my seat next to Sirius. He was already half way done. Eumphimia, James mom, passed me my plate. I start to eat -or as James put "you are wolfing down the poor waffles." 

We head to our den-just a study room but made it into our, well den- which was located near the library. Yes the Potter house, its actually a Manor, has a Library. They also have a indoor swimming pool. It's really cool. The Library was on the ground floor near the end. The manor has two 2 floors.  The bedrooms are on the second floor. Their are more than 8 bedrooms. So I got a whole room to myself. My room will perfectly fit the description of a fairytale queen chambers. They were that huge and Mia (We call Eumphimia, Mia her name is a mouthful) took it upon herself to design my room. It had a huge four poster bed in the middle, on a small platform. It was grey, the headboard had stones to it.  The whole room was carpeted, a beautiful grey fur carpet. The room also had a walk-in cupboard.  The cupboard was gigantic, it is the size of my bedroom in the Black house. The cupboard also held a dressing table. Conjoining to the cupboard was the washroom, which was huge.

Mia always wanted a daughter but she never had one. She had James in her late 40ies. So she is around 55 or something now. 

Back to us going to the den. Took us almost 3 mins to reach it from the kitchen. The den was a room filled with couches and beanbags. This room was also carpeted but it is a sage green color rather than grey. There was a table sitting in the corner of the room. A huge projector screen was hanging (we have to pull it down, to watch.) It was Remus who told us about the muggle technology.  His mom is a muggle. Hope lupin is one of the sweetest, kindest woman available on Earth. Hope loves me, more than Remus himself. So does his dad Lyall.

When me and Sirius ran from the Black house (Mid of July 1975. Basically around 1 month prior) Eumphimia and Hope had a argument about me. Hope wanted me to stay with the Lupins and Mia with the Potters. The argument lasted for 2 days. Finally they came up with a solution.  The July-August holidays I would stay with the Potters. The Christmas and Easter with the Lupins. Sirius will stay with the potters for the other two holidays as well. But we will meet every month twice or something.

Back to us doing nothing for another 2 hours. It was around 12 when Mia called us to help her. We had almost reached the kitchen when a familiar smell hit me. He isn't supposed to come for another few days? Then came the sound of bell ringing.

Chuckling, James says "Your love is here, princess."
