~Claire~

"I don't wanna!" I cried as Sirius pulled the covers away from me.
"Babe, you're not five!" Sirius laughed, throwing the clothes I had put out last night at me.
"I'm eighteen!" I whined.
"Yes I know, but you're acting like a five year old," Sirius chuckled.

I glared at him. Not bothering to move, I dressed in the bed. Sirius grinning at me as I did so.

"I don't like you," I grumbled as I reluctantly moved to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
"Claire this is really important. We have to meet the rest of the Order," Sirius spoke, following me to the bathroom and brushing his own teeth in the sink beside mine.
"Yeah yeah, whatever," I sighed, brushing through the knots in my hair.

Sirius laughed, pulling his razor and shaving cream out of the cabinet.

"What?! No! You can not!" I exclaimed, taking the razor from his hand and chucking it back in the cabinet.
"Claire!" Sirius scolded as the razor broke into three pieces.
"No! You can't shave!" I cried.

Sirius grinned as I frantically removed anything related to shaving from him.

I pushed his aftershave out of his reach, his shaving cream lost in our closet after I had thrown it.

"Claire, calm down! I won't shave!" Sirius laughed, grabbing my hands.
"Good, cause I think you'd look good with a beard," I spoke, patting his slightly stubbly cheeks.
"Then I won't shave," Sirius said, hopping onto the counter and adjusting himself to be more comfortable.
"What are you doing?" I questioned.
"I'm going to sit here and watch you do your makeup," Sirius explained.

"Where is it we're meeting?" Lily questioned.
"My sisters house," Camellia replied.
"Molly isn't apart of the Order though, is she?" Peter asked.
"No, she and her husband said they just want to be with their kids. Percy's just seven months old. Charlie's already four, and Bill's six. Plus she's pregnant," Camellia sighed, a smile on her lips at the thought of her nephews.
"So why their house if they're not apart of the Order?" James asks.
"They said they wanted to help, so they offered their house for meetings," Camellia shrugged.

We all apparated to the Burrow, finding that it was not as bright as usual.

All the lights were out, it looked like an abandoned house from the outside. Though as we were welcomed by a once again pregnant Molly, who pushed us inside, we noticed it was the same as usual inside. Warm and welcoming.

Though the twenty people inside were not as welcoming.

A few faces I recognized; Fabian, Gideon, Marlene, Dorcas, Emmeline. There were also very noticeable faces; Hagrid and Dumbledore.

Arthur came over and greeted us all, and Dumbledore stood upon our entrance.

"Everyone, please welcome the newest members of the Order of the Phoenix," Dumbledore announced.

There were murmurs of welcome, mainly from the twins who stood and clapped.

"That's our sister!" Fabian exclaimed, pointing at Camellia.
"That's our Clairesse!" Gideon spoke, pointing at me.
"My Clairesse actually," Sirius piped, wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me into his side.
"Ah, and that's our Clairesse's fiancé," Fabian said.
"You told them?!" I questioned, looking over at Camellia.
"I couldn't help it! I was just so excited!" Camellia replied, sending me a sheepish smile.

Sirius laughs as I become flustered by all of the women cooing at me.

Dumbledore clears his throat and we all look over at him.

"Let me introduce you all," Dumbledore smiles.
"This is my brother, Aberforth," The man nodded towards us, only grumbling from behind his beard.
"Alastor, or more commonly
Mad-Eye Moody," He made no effort to welcome us, only stared.
"Arabella Figg," She smiled widely and shook all of our hands, stopping to look at my ring as she reached me.
"Alice and Frank Longbottom." They both gave us big hugs, smiles adorned their faces.
"Benjy Fenwick," He smiled at us, nodding his head in acknowledgment.
"Caradoc Dearborn," He smiled as well.

He went on, introducing us to Dedalus Diggle, Edgar Bones, Elphias Doge, and Sturgis Podmore.

"It seems Mundungus is late again," Molly sighed, looking up at the clock on the wall.

Seconds after she said that the door swung open and a man ran in.

"S-So sorry I'm late, had a run in with a few blokes," He panted.
"It's alright Mundungus, our new Order members are here," Dumbledore said.
"I see that, you've found quite the pretty one," Mundungus said, winking at me as he walked forward, his hand out to shake.
"Mundungus Fletcher, it's a pleasure to meet you," Mundungus smirked.
"Claire Bennet. And I'm engaged," I scowled.
"He doesn't need to know," Mundungus spoke in what I assumed he thought was a whisper.
"Yeah except for the fact that he's standing right behind you and I think he's about ready to kill you," I spoke sassily.

He turned around, his eyes widening at how Sirius towered over him. He gulped, backing up until he hit the wall.

"I'd advise you to stay away from her, or we may not get along all to well," Sirius hissed.
"Y-Yes sir," Mundungus whimpered.
"Sir? I'm eighteen! You're like a hundred!" Sirius exclaimed.

James, Gideon, and Fabian roared with laughter. Remus and Peter chuckled. While everyone else shook their heads in amusement.

"I think it's time we start this meeting," Dumbledore spoke, the twinkle in his eyes far gone.
"Of course, Professor Dumbledore," Lily nodded.
"Please, call me Albus. All of you," Albus said.

We nodded, taking our seats around the large table.

"The main thing we need is more members, so all of you can be on the look out for people to recruit. But that job is more specifically for Clairesse," Albus started.
"Me?" I repeated, pointing to myself.
"Yes, you've got a very welcoming demeanor, and I believe you'll find it easy to make new friends willing to help," Albus smiled lightly.

I nodded, thinking of ways I could do that.

"You're all working to be Aurors, so you can help keep an eye on the Ministry," Alastor piped.
Albus nodded in agreement.
"Camellia, I heard you wanted to get a muggle job on the side," Albus spoke, Camellia's eyes widening at the statement.
"I-I don't really know," Camellia stuttered.
"Well if you do, you could help keep an eye out for any new muggle news we may not be hearing," Albus nodded.
"Lily, you are a muggleborn so I'd like you to do the same," Albus added, and Lily nodded in agreement.
"Sirius, James, Remus, Peter. You all have very important jobs. You'll be expected to be available whenever needed – as will the girls, but they may not always be available – as you'll be called on missions a lot," Albus sighed.

They all nodded.

"Finally, Remus. I'm afraid I've got quite the favor for you," Albus frowned.

Camellia squeezed Remus's hand comfortingly.

"It would give us a great advantage to have werewolves on our side. I was wondering if you would try and get in contact with them?" Albus asked.
"You what?!" Camellia roared.
"Cam, calm down," Remus sighed.
"I will not, Rem! He can't just expect you to be comfortable with going up and asking, potentially Fenrir Greyback, to join us!" Camellia exclaimed.

We all fell silent as Remus stood from his chair.

"Do you really think I'd ask Fenrir?! Camellia if I had the chance I would rip his head off for what he did to me!" Remus yelled.
"R-Remus I'm sorry I didn't mean that," Camellia whimpered.

Remus was quite scary when he was angry. He'd let his werewolf side take over, and it wasn't something you'd want to witness.

"I think this meeting is over. You may leave," Albus spoke.

Camellia apparated on the spot, Remus following her lead.

Soon everyone had apparated away but Fabian, Gideon, Sirius, James, Lily, and I. Leaving us with Molly and Arthur.

"That jerk better not hurt our sister," Gideon growled.
"Calm down. They'll be snogging again by tomorrow," Lily snorted.
"Fabian, Gideon, you'll make it to the wedding right?" I interrupted.
"Of course! We wouldn't miss it for the world!" Fabian grinned.
"Especially after what Fletcher just did. He may want to stop the wedding and marry you himself!" Gideon laughed.

Sirius and I groaned.

"I can't believe that old git did that," Lily scoffed.
"I can't believe he called me sir!" Sirius scoffed, earning laughs from Gideon, Fabian, and James.
"You are old," I muttered.
"Excuse me?!"
"I mean, you are the youngest and hottest eighteen year old I have ever laid eyes on!"
"That's what I thought."
"Wait you can think?! I didn't know you had a brain!"
"That is rude!"
"Really? I thought it was pretty nice."
"I hate you."
"Sure you do."
"I do!"
"Mhmm."
"Ugh. Fine. I don't really."
"Yes I know."
"I love you."
"I love you too, Siri."
"You guys are gross."
"Shut up James, you're ruining the moment."
"Sorry, dear."
"Dear?"
"Shut up Gideon!"
"Yeah shut up Gideon!"
"You too Fabian!"
"Sorry James, dear."
"That's what I thought."
"You have a brain too?!"
"Claire!"
"Right, sorry James, dear."
"Hmph."
