"Sirius!" Ophelia shouted as she ran through the house. He had left her dress somewhere only he couldn't remember where. "How the bloody hell do you lose an entire wedding dress?"

"It's your fault for trusting me with it," he reminded her as he checked another room.

"I didn't trust you with it," she huffed. "I trusted Remus who trusted you for whatever stupid reason."

"Would you calm down?" he requested.

"How am I supposed to calm down?" she asked. "The ceremony was supposed to start half an hour ago! What if he thinks I'm standing him up?"

"He's not going to think that," Sirius pointed out. "Aha!" he exclaimed, "Got it."

Ophelia skidded to a stop at the door frame to the room he was in, "The dress?"

"No," he answered, "I left my leather jacket here a few days ago."

"Sirius!" she shouted. "This really isn't the time."

"I was only messing with you," he replied before holding up the dress.

She let out a breath of relief before grabbing the dress from him. "Let's get out of here, please."

"Where are they?" James asked as he paced back and forth in the hall of Hogwarts. They knew as soon as they were discussing wedding plans that this is where they wanted to have it. "You think their okay?"

"It's probably my fault," Remus huffed. "I shouldn't have let Sirius handle the dress."

"Yes," he agreed with a wave of us his hand, "That was very stupid of you."

Remus rolled his eyes, "I think you can calm down."

"How am I supposed to calm down?" he gaped. "It's been almost an hour and the guest are getting antsy and-"

"Prongs," Remus interrupted and he stopped pacing. "They're here."

James looked over at where he was looking and saw Sirius standing outside the door and waving. He breathed out a sigh of relief, "Oh, good."

He started his way to the room to see Ophelia but Remus just managed to step in front of him.

James moved to enter the room but Remus placed a hand on his chest, "You can't go in there."

This confused him, "Why not?"

"You can't see the bride until she's walking down the aisle," he pointed out. "Now go, we'll have her out in fifteen."

"She should have been out an hour ago," he countered. "How am I supposed to trust that you two won't mess it up again?"

"Because I'm saying it, not Sirius," Remus explained. "Fifteen minutes. Now go."

Remus turned to enter the room, and Andromeda Tonks followed in behind him, her daughter at her side.

"Black, I need you to zip up the back of the dress," Ophelia informed him. "It's not that difficult. You just grab the zipper and pull up."

"I'll do it," Remus stated before he crossed the room to the girl. He grabbed the zipper and pulled it up with ease. He turned to look at Sirius with a raised eyebrow, "Why was that difficult for you?"

"It's just such a complicated contraption," he huffed.

"Oh, you look beautiful," Andi informed the girl and Ophelia smiled, accepting the hug that the woman offered.
