Liberosis (A Marauders Era Fanfiction)

Fifteen

"Elena dear I'm so glad to see you" Mrs. Potter says pulling me into a hug.

"Nice to see you too Mrs. Potter" I say hugging her back tightly.

"Oh how many times do I need to tell you call me Euphemia Mrs. Potter was my mother in law" she says pulling back. She moves on to dote on Ollie and I run upstairs. She told me the boys were in James' room. I walk in as quietly as I can only Remus and James see me and I put a finger to my lips then I run and jump on Sirius back. He screams and I bust out laughing.

"That's not funny love I could have had a heart attack" he said clutching his chest but quickly letting go to pull me into a hug. I hear Ollie's voice in my head 'I can't believe you left me' 'Oh like Mrs. Potter is such a terrible person to leave you with are you scared you will be smothered in love' . I let go of Sirius and turn to Remus. I plant a kiss on his cheek and give him a quick hug before I'm pulled onto James' lap.

"Elly I missed you so much I almost died" he said nuzzling into my neck.

"Really El he didn't eat unless he was forced to it was dark" Remus says nodding. Ollie walked in and suddenly I was pushed off James' lap as he jumped up to hug Ollie. I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah I can see how much I was missed" I said sarcastically laying in Sirius' lap instead. Ollie and James embraced each other like they hadn't seen each other in a year. "Ollie for all you tease him about being all over me it seems like he prefers you" I say as Sirius starts playing with my hair. He asks me to change color and style over and over and I do absentmindedly.

"I don't prefer him Elly I just-- yeah I don't have an excuse I really missed you Ollie" he says turning back to his best friend.

"Missed you too mate" Ollie says.

"Careful Ollie he may say he misses you but he will drop you the second someone better comes through the door" I say pretending to be bitter.

"Like you wouldn't do the same if it were me" Sirius says and I grin up at him.

"I'm starting to feel left out someone owl Lily and tell her to get her ass over here so I'm not a fifth wheel" Remus says jokingly.

"Aww we love you too Moony and she will be here for New Years" James says as him and Ollie sit down on the bed with all of us. James reaches out to me but I shake my head.

"Nope you gave me up for my brother I'm staying right here" I say and he pouts and Sirius sticks his tongue out at him. We spend a while just catching up but then we're called down to dinner. We all walk down and I sit down first my sides immediately being claimed by Sirius and James both them scooting close to me.

"Boys don't crowd her in fact one of you get up so I can sit by Elena and we can catch up" she says smiling at me. They both shout "NOT IT" and grab a hand. "Alright then since neither of you are being polite enough to give up a seat for your dear mother both of you up Remus can sit on her other side she deserves respectable dinner company" Mrs. Potter says making Remus grin as he takes Sirius' seat and Mrs. Potter takes James'.

"So dear how have you been" Mrs. Potter says as she sits beside me. Both of the boys are pouting like five year olds as they move to the other side of the table.

"I've been good just spent Christmas with dad and Ollie like always it was nice" I said.

"Well I'm glad to get to share in the Holiday cheer with you" Mrs. Potter says.

"Me too being here always make it feel more like a Holiday" I say smiling.

"Well then you can let me know If you ever want to talk about that dear I'm here for you I see you almost as if you are my own daughter if I'm lucky one of my boys will marry you and make it official" she says smiling I would be upset about someone talking about me being with the boys again but she was so genuine and loving when she said it.
