<br/>Riley helped Sirius pick up the rest of the wrapping paper and she smiled softly looking at Lily and James laying on the floor. She could hear Sara and her mother talking in the kitchen and she nibbled on her bottom lip. She wished her mother would've been nice and loving... or at least cared about her. Her head shook to get those negative thoughts out and she blinked seeing that Sirius was heading out of the door. Quickly she headed up the stairs, grabbing a blanket and some slippers so that she wouldn't freeze. She made her way down the stairs and out the door where she saw the dark head boy head out. A smile came to her lips when she saw him looking around the back yard and she felt butterflies come to her stomach. Was she really going to do this? Would she open up a new chapter in their lives? She blushed and shook her head as she waved to the dark haired boy. "I was going to help you bring out the garbage and then i realized I didn't have any shoes. Aren't you cold?" She asked him with a giggle and held half of the blanket out to him.<br/><br/><br/>James smiled when Lily came to sit in his lap and he held her close. He laughed when she pushed him back against the floor and his arm wrapped tightly around her torso, his fingers gently brushing her side. "Thank you for celebrating Christmas with us Lily." He said softly watching as she pointed upwards and his eyes looked at all the lights shimmering with that large golden star at the top. He pulled her up a little and pressed a kiss to her nose. "Merry Christmas." He whispered against her skin before grinning at her. "I'm glad you like your present, I knew if i gave my mom some hints she would pick out a wonderful present." He said with a chuckle and tugged her a little more to his body and held her close. Everything seemed almost too good to be true.<br/><br/><br/>Sara laughed when her mother prided her on having three more children within the past year. "Oh mum, don't be silly. They're James' friends. But it's nice to have some girls around the house finally. I was thinking of inviting them both over once again for some girl time. I know Riley's mother never taught her anything about cooking and I'm not sure what Lily knows, but it would be fun." She said with a bright smile. It was always so nice when Sirius came over to the house with James, she had always wanted a bundle of children. But she had always wished for girls as well. Now she had gotten her wish it seemed.<br/><br/>Grandma nodded her head and smiled seeing how happy her daughter was. She stood up from her chair slowly and pulled out the old recipe book with a smile. "I think it's time we make a few copies of this don't you think?" She asked with a nod, knowing that the girls would be apart of this family for a long time. She could feel it in her old bones.
