( where harry starts to get a little stalkerish... which is just him realizing about some unwanted feelings )

"SORRY... I WAS DOING... STUFF—"

"SHE PUSHED ME DOWN THE FUCKING STAIRS!" James screeched while his wife merely walked pass, into the living room.

"You guys turn everything into a competition, I was expecting for one of you to do that at some point today." Daisy laughed in her signature spot at the dining table, already studying Hogwarts book for when she joins for her first this year after the summer.

"She was lucky I didn't get ahold of her hair—" Lily quickly turned around with a glare at her husband while he let out a yelp, petrified of the woman he married nineteen years ago.

"Oh, I'd love to see you try." While turning back to start dinner, their German Shepard — Snuffles ran inside.

"Harry, you should take Snuffles out for a walk before everyone comes over, its beautiful outside!"

"I can't, Ma, Ron is gonna be here any second to practice for Quidditch." James looked at a version of his younger self as Harry walks into the kitchen with a Bludger and Quaffle under his arm.

Harry was an exact replica of his father. Tall, round glasses, standing straight at six foot with tan skin and dark messy brown hair. But with green eyes that matched his mother's eyes. He's grown muscle over the years from playing Quidditch and going on several runs. Running a hand through his curly hair, he wore a pair of grey sweats and a wide dark maroon jersey that looked just a tad see-through.

"Are you wearing a crop top?" Daisy asks her older brother, raising her eyebrow.

While Harry was a replica of his father, Daisy was a replica of their mother. She had her mother's pale freckled skin with vibrant red hair and just like Lily, her hair will get darker as she gets older. She even had her mother's temper and nosey questions while she was just a daddy's girl... and yet her father's gene had no chance against Lily's.

"Of course I am." It wasn't entirely cropped but it was short enough that he would barely have to lift his arms to reveal his v-line abdomen.

"Can you please not practice today? Family is gonna be over any minute."

"You mean our neighbors? Come on, ma, its just Eva and Uncle Reggie that's coming. And they're no one who aren't familiar with almost getting hit with a Bludger."

"Actually, Eva is bringing someone for all of us to meet... So, I'd like you to look semi decent." She says directing to all of him. "And what did I say about practicing with a the Bulger when there's guest around—"

"Bludger—" James mutters, poking his head, quickly getting a reaction from Lily.

"I'm sorry?" Lily snaps, looking at James quick, immediately shutting him up as he went straight back to cutting some potatoes.

"Fine, I'll put on jeans!" He grumbles, pouting like a child up the stairs to his room. "I'll just have to cancel practice with Ron!"

"And do something with your hair!"

He rolls his eyes as gets to his room, closing his door behind him. His room was spacious, a classic guys bedroom... It almost felt too big for him sometimes.

His Qudditch trophies in his shelf with pictures of his team, family and friends. Even having a newspaper framed above his desk with the headliner being 'Our Youngest Qudditch Player in Hogwarts History!'. Big pictures in the front page of his young eleven year old self, holding up a snitch high and mighty with a big grin. It made him laugh everytime he saw the photograph because of his crooked teeth and crooked glasses.

Classic muggle movie posters on his walls like The Waterboy, Willow, Diehard, Rocky, and the books of Star Wars on shelves — all classics Lily showed her entire family. Magnolia had some movie posters in her own room, none of which matched Harry's. But she did like The Water Boy and Willow, but she couldn't help but not like reading Star Wars.

He had a little dinosaur stuffie that looked like Littlefoot from A Land Before Time that was gifted from Magnolia on his tenth birthday. They were obsessed with it when they were younger but now a kids movie they absolutely adore is An American Tail. Mags won't stop talking about wanting Fievel's hat.

Harry grumbles to himself as he rummages through his pile of clothes for a pair of jeans. Suddenly hearing Ms. Lauryn Hill and Fugees, he looks towards his window. Magnolia had her curtains open and window cracked, revealing Magnolia softly humming, Killing Me Softly With His Song. She was only wearing a small blue top that showed off her lower belly and a pair of black low-waisted wide legged sweats. She was typing on her flip phone, probably texting Carmen or her mom.

She looked like she had just finished doing her her hair and makeup and was looking for an outfit. He barely gazed at her before he saw her grab the waist band of her pants. Immediately catching himself not planning to look away, he whispers before rubbing his eyes and looking away, "God, I'm such a perv."

But he was back to looking at her again, peeking through his fingers.He watched as she tossed her phone on her bed and suddenly shimming off her pants.

Why did it seem like she was going on slow motion? He thought to himself as a pink thong was suddenly all his eyes can see and mind can focus on. Fuck.

The pants dropped to the floor and she stepped out of them before turning around and giving Harry the best God damn view of his life. Her small back dimples, her plump tanned arse made him put his fist in his mouth and groan. Her long legs and cute little thong with her thick long sandy blonde hair flowing beautifully down her back made him hold back such a painful hard on. It looked like she came right out of a muggle Playboy magazine.

God, what the hell is wrong with him? Why can't he look away?

It didn't make it any better when she fully bent down to grab something off the ground, making him want nothing more than to motorboat her ass. What the hell—

God, he hated himself. Why did his best friend have to be so bloody hot—

"Harry, hurry up, your father needs your help—"

"Fuck!" Harry practically screeched, placing his hand on his chest in freight. Scared he may have been caught.

"No, I don't!" He heard his father scream back while Lily sighed behind his door.

"Just get dressed, hun, I'm scared he's gonna try something stupid."

"Um, just make him use his wand!" Harry stutters, glancing back out his window. Just to see her wearing jeans...

Literally. She was topless with just a pair of baggy jeans. His eyes almost gauged out of his head when all he could see was her bare back facing him. But then she started turning around—

"Shit!" He mutters, dropping to the ground, cursing to himself since he landed right on his ass.

"You know my rules, Har, no unnecessary magic when we're home." His mother would kill him if she knew he was practically eyefucking her and Da's best friends daughter...

"Okay, I'll be right down! I might take a quick shower." He shouts, oddly loud trying to cough his flusterness away.

"Ah finally! Thank you, I didn't want to say but you smelled like cat shit." His mother laughs, making him roll his eyes.

After her comment, she walks away while he immediately closes his blinds so he can stop being a creepy pervert. With a sigh and another rub to his face, he grabs a towel and a pair of jeans. Needing to wash out his disgusting thoughts, he needed a quick cold shower.

"For the love of god, Sirius, can you please come to my house with pants on? For once!" Lily exclaims, standing on her porch in her classic jeans and flannel. Remus, Sirius, Evangeline had just came over from their side through the backyard fence. Remus was dressed normal in jeans and crew neck while Sirius pounced into the Potter's backyard with a pair of plaid boxers and a black Queen t-shirt.

"Let me be comfortable woman!" He shouts back as he quickly whispers to Magnolia to make him a rum and coke inside.

"Moony, why did you let him get out of the house like that?!" Lily complained while James laughs from behind the grill, wearing a 'kiss the cook' chef apron.

"I tried, Lily, I tried."

"Sirius, get your ass inside and get some pants on! Before Eva gets here!" He groaned, throwing his head back in a childish manner, "please!"

"Okay, okay, Lilyflower, I'll go put on some pants!"

"Thank you!" Sirius pranced up onto the porch, grinning at Harry, who stood a little taller than his godfather.

"Oh hey bambi, let me borrow your corduroys?"

"Yeah, maybe when hell freezes over," Harry laughs, coming outside through the sliding glass door as Sirius pats his back with a laugh.

"Who's this woman Ma's bringing again? Another summer fling or what?"

"Maggie, be nice," Lily softly scowled, pulling in the young girl for a hug, kissing her cheek.

"Sorry." The blonde mutters, having a soft spot for the redhead and not feeling like giving a snarky comment back. "So, Lilyflower, where's my other flower?"

"She's studying another book of yours from Hogwarts, I think she's onto your Astrology books now."

"Dang, she really wants a head start, huh?"

"Gets it from her mother," James teases, patting his wife's butt with his spatula.

Remus starts talking to James at the grill while Lily started to cut up some lettuce for the burgers. Magnolia started to go towards the inside while Harry eyed her down.

She changed out of the jeans. He noticed.

She wore a crocheted tight maxi dress that went off the shoulder and long sleeves that went over her hands. It was light on her skin and you could see every curve she had. It made him think about what's under the dress.

"Hey Har, does your Dad have any coke, I know he's got rum." He doesn't answer her at first, not even noticing she was standing directly in front of him. He was too busy staring at her legs that the dress was clinging onto.

"Hey, dickwad? Do you hear me?" He finally cuts to her and quickly recovers with a smirk.

"What are you smiling about?" She asks with furrowed eyebrows, crossing her arms over her chest. Does she realize when she does that, it pushes them up?

Harry shook his head but stood up straight in front of her and looked down at her. Her light gray eyes glared at him while his forest green eyes stared back amused. Lock in, Harry, don't show her how much she affects you.

"Oh, nothing... Just thinking about you."

"Your thinking about me?" She asks, obviously not believing a word he says as she places a hand on her hip.

"Yeah, just you. Your blonde hair that blends with your skin. Annoying creepy blue voodoo doll eyes..." She rolled her eyes when he took a step closer to her and slightly crouched to her ear. With glint his eyes, he whispers, "Your pretty cute pink thong—"

"You fucking perv!" She shouted, shoving him off her as he smirks with a laugh. She shoves past him inside while he follows her.

"Maybe close your curtains and I won't be seeing you bending over—"

"Ugh, were you just watching me?!" She asks disgusted as he practically pranced in glee after her.

"No, I simply look over cause of your blaring music and since your windows are wide open—" She sends him a glare to shut up as they enter the kitchen where Daisy was studying.

"Hey, Maggie!" Daisy cheered, looking up from her books.

"Your gonna the smartest kid in Hogwarts by the time you get in."

"Just like Granger." Harry laughed as Magnolia went to the cabinets to try to reach for a glass cup. His eyes were just drawn to her, he couldn't help it. He needed to know where she was at all times.

Harry notices with a evil plan in his head and walks over to her. "Harry—" A little gasp leaves her lips as he was already right behind her and leans over her. He knows she's watching intently at him with a small glare when he reaches easily above her and presses himself against her.

"Need this?" He asks, holding the glass in front of her face.

"Do you realize how annoying you are?"

"Oh please, Magnolia, tell me again—"

"Am I interrupting something?" Magnolia has never shoved Harry away from her so quickly.

"OW! Bloody hell, Taurus!"

"Isn't her last name technically, Lupin Taurus?" Hermione asks from beside a horrified Ronald.

"Well, technically after this wedding, she'll be Magnolia Lupin Taurus Black."

"Reggie!" Magnolia exclaims, running to her godfather for a hug. Her godfather was known for his richest just like his brother. Inherited millions from his Uncle Alphard and his Aunt Bellatrix — who was still rotting in Azkaban and still favored him as her favorite cousin.

He was very tall, around the same height as Sirius and had his matching light eyes and dark mid-length hair. He smiled seeing his goddaughter and wrapped a strong arm around her. His wife, and Magnolia's godmother, Astra was next pulled into a hug.

"Harry!" Ron whisper shouted, catching Harry staring at Magnolia from across the kitchen.

"What, Ron?" Harry groans, leaning his arms against the counter when his two best mates come beside him.

"What the hell was that?"

"What are you talking about?" Harry asks, furrowing his eyebrows while Ron lowers his voice. Hermione rolls her eyes with a shrug when Harry looks at her in wonder.

"You and the personification of evil!" He whisper shouted, immediately making Harry roll his eyes.

"Ron, there's nothing, bloody hell—"

"No, no, no — what I saw was everything! Your gaining feelings!" Harry scoffs.

"You so are!"

"No, I'm not! It was just light teasing."

"Oh please, you like her and you have ever since you grew your first chin hairs!" Harry gives him a glare to shut up or at least be quiet.

"Don't do this to yourself, Harry — that girls mental!"

"Don't be rude, Ron." Hermione remarks, making him sigh.

"She's a Slytherin and mean! She has werewolf anger issues, Veela charm and manipulation! She bloody terrifies me!" Hermione and Harry groan, knowing Ron's one-sided beef with Magnolia. "I swear she's plotting to kill me."

"Look Ron, I don't like her like that. We're barely even friends..." Hermione raises an eyebrow at him and clicks her tongue.

"You guys did grow up together... And do spend lot of time together—"

"Doesn't mean I'm in love with her!" Hermione and Ron look at each other with wide eyes but with two different expressions. Ron was just surprised by his outburst and sighs quietly while Hermione contained a smirk.

"Never said love—"

"Shut it, Mione—" Harry scoffs, walking away from them as Hermione laughs.

"Oh have the feelings revealed itself?"
