ENTER BIRTHDAY BOY
Sirius didn't know whether he could really consider himself a year older when his birthday was just a few months ago. But the calendars said it was the twenty-fifth of July, and that happened to be the date he graced the world with his presence. Why the hell not? Someone had already left him a present (probably a secret admirer or something of the such), and it was a good excuse to faff around and drink (not that he ever truly needed one).
It wasn't work so much as a stroll around the beach that Sirius was coming back from when he walked up to his bungalow. When the music reached his ears, he cocked his head to one side. It was coming from around the back, and his curiousity led him to the source. He was expecting a serenade and found something completely different.
"What's all this about?" asked Sirius, a grin already tugging at his mouth.
