Good evening, Harry. May I present to you, Remus Lupin. Remus, I am sure you remember, Harry Potter," Minerva made the introductions and Lupin rose to his feet.
"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Lupin," Harry replied more formally remembering his teachings from Lady Longbottom since this was a first meeting or at least the first he remembered.
"It's a pleasure to see you again, Mr. Potter, and please call me Remus," Remus replied with a genuine smile and kind brown eyes.
"Harry, is fine, Remus. After all, I am told my parents considered you one of their best friends."
"They were amazing people, Harry. I am truly sorry that you did not get more time with them. They adored you."
"That they did," Minerva agreed with Remus's statement as Remus and Harry seated themselves across from each other.
"Minerva has told me about them a bit, but she said you may have known them better, especially my father," Harry stated the longing for more information evident in his tone.
"I met James on the train to Hogwarts. We were sorted into Gryffindor house together, and were basically friends from day one. I believe it was sometime in that first week of school when he first expressed his intention to marry your mother, Lily Evans. Of course, Lily didn't really come around to that plan until our seventh year," Remus said and Harry noted that his eyes seemed to brighten at the memories.
"Why was dad so taken with mum as a first year?"
"Lily was beautiful and brilliant, and I've no doubt that most of the male population harbored a crush on her at one point or another. She wasalso unerringly kind, and wicked good with a wand," Remus explained thinking back to what he remembered of the vibrant red haired beauty. "You have her eyes, and the shape of your face seems more hers than James, though your resemblance to James is uncanny."
"So what happened in seventh year that changed mum's mind about dad?"
"Lily used to say that it was because he had finally grown up and started acting more mature."
"They were also Head Boy and Head Girl and had to work together that last year as part of their duties," Minerva added thinking about that time and two of her favorite former students.
"I don't think anyone expected James Potter to be Head Boy, including James," Remus said with a laugh.
"No, your father was a prankster and I do believe jointly holds the record for most detentions while at Hogwarts for his mischief," Minerva revealed, "though he did do a surprisingly good job as Head Boy."
"Lily would not have let him do anything less than his best," Remus stated with conviction.
"Now that I believe," Minerva said with a smile enjoying the opportunity to reminisce.
"You never said anything about pranks and detentions before," Harry remarked curious as to this new topic. Minerva sighed and Remus laughed again even louder this time.
"No doubt, Minerva was hoping that you would not be into pranks and mischief making," Remus informed him once he finally stopped laughing. "I am sure we were responsible for more than a few gray hairs and headaches....
