"What were you thinking?!" Andromeda exclaimed after apparating back to her house.

"Pewcy was being mean! Plus Fwed and Geoge helped!" Kelsey replied waving her tiny arms around.

"Yes and Fred and George are now in trouble with their mother! Go sit in that corner and wait until I call you for dinner." Andromeda told her. Kelsey huffed and sat in the corner looking at the wall. "No desserts after dinner."

Remus walked in to see the little girl playing with her hair in the corner. "Hello Kelsey. Why are you sitting in the corner?"

"Because I helped Fwed and Geoge pwank Pewcy." Kelsey huffed. Andromeda walked into the room, her hair streaked with silver and pulled into a loose bun.

"Ah Remus! Glad you're here! I thought you were Ted for a moment." Andromeda chuckled.

"Andromeda! Thank you for taking care of her today. So I've been told that she pranked someone with Fred and George?" Remus smiled, trying to hide his pride.

"Yes she pranked one of Molly's other children, Percy, with the twins. Go on Kelsey tell him what you did."

"I put a stink bomb, the muggle kind, in his back. And a bunch of fwogs. And slime on his haiw! It was vewy fun! And he called me an- an annoying!" Kelsey smiled excitedly telling the two about her pranks placed on the douche we know as Percy. "I made fweinds!"

"Well Kelsey, I hope you realize that it was not nice of you to prank Percy, but I am glad you made friends." Remus told her in his fake stern dad like voice. Kelsey nodded, and looked over at Andromeda.

"Can I get up? My bum hurts." She asked, making Remus laugh at her expression.

"Yes dear you can. Come on, I made some chicken. Ted should be home soon."

Kelsey and Remus left after eating their weight in chicken and pasta and broccoli. "Wemus are you mad at me?"

"No Kels I am not. In fact I am quite proud of you for getting back at Percy. And Sirius would be too."

"I think Sewious would have helped."

"I do too."

The next day the two were surprised to see Andromeda knocking on their door at 8:30 am. Just before the two woke up. "Andromeda what a pleasant *yawn* surprise. What Cani help you with?" Remus answered his door sleepily, wearing a t-shirt and sweatpants.

"I came to take Kelsey dress shopping! She'll need one for the party tonight and I doubt she has one for the occasion!" Andromeda smiled in a way that reminded Remus of Molly Weasly. Kelsey groggily shuffled out of her room, the noise waking her up.

"Why awe you up so earwy, Wemus?" Kelsey yawned. "Hi aunt Andy. Why awe you hewe?"

"Andromeda is going to take you dress shopping for the party later. How about you go get dressed? I'll make you some frozen waffles with peanut butter and syrup okay?" Remus smiled, the sleepy TWO YEAR OLD nodding and shuffling back to her room.

After about fifteen minutes, Kelsey walked out of her room, her hair still messy, dressed in a black sweater and leggings. "I can't put my shoes on." Remus sighed and helped her put on the little converse. Handing her the waffle that was folded in half and wrapped in a paper towel. "Just like how Sirius made them."

"Tanks." She smiled munching on the waffle, smiling slightly.

"Well come on dear. We have to go find you a dress! What color do you want your hair to be? Oooo I know! We can choose a dress that goes with any hair color!" Andromeda rambled dragging Kelsey out of the house before apparating.

Remus sighed. "Well back to bed I guess."

Andromeda had been to three shops and still couldn't pick one that was perfect. Kelsey was growing impatient and wanted to eat something. In the very last shop they went to Andromeda stopped walking and to look for a dress. "How about this one? Kels? Kelsey?!"

"Look Aunt Andy!" Kelsey's tiny voice said from behind her. The little girl was holding a dark blue dress that was simple but gave off a formal vibe. [the dress up top but a dark, almost black, blue] "Let's get this one."

"Oh I love it! Now we just need to find some shoes..." Andromeda started to ramble again making Kelsey sigh.

"Aunty I have boots. No moe shopping pwease." Kelsey begged. Andromeda sighed. After getting lunch at a pub, the two decided to pick up some chocolate for Remus. "I think thewe's some chocolate ov- oof!"

"Ouch!" Kelsey and the person she ran into said. A boy with wavy Blonde hair and hazel eyes rubbed his head. "Sowy. Awe you okay?" Kelsey asked.

"Yeah." He mumbled standing up. Kelsey stood up too. "What's your name?"

"Kelsey Hamilton! What's youws?" She smiled brightly, sticking out a hand. He smiled back, high fiving her hand.

"My name is Kaleb but my auntie calls me Karkat. I dunno why." Kelsey nodded.

"Kelsey? Did you find some chocolate for Remus?" Andromeda asked walking up to them.

"No, but I found Kawkat!" Kelsey pointed.

"Karkat? Where are you?" A woman called. She turned towards them and rushed over and picked him up. "There you are!"

"Amelia?" Andromeda asked making the woman face her.

"Andromeda!" The two women started chatting about stuff including the party, while the two two year olds decided to look for chocolate.

"Is that youw mummy?" Kelsey asked. Karkat shook his head.

"No that's my Aunty. Is that your mummy?" The two turned to the right, with no sign of chocolate.

"No that's my Aunty. My mummy is dead. So is my daddy, and grandma." Kelsey replied, still looking for chocolate for Remus. "I found it!"

The two of them picked up several bars and ran back to where their aunts were. "We found the chocolate!"

-> After paying for their candy, the two children waved goodbye and said that they would see each other at the party.

"No running off alone! Someone could steal you!" Andromeda began her, (what felt like), hundredth lecture. "What am I to do with you?"

"Take me to youw house, make me take a nap, get me dressed and go to the pawty with you?" Kelsey suggested, looking up at her Aunt.

"Well. That sounds like a good plan."
