Thanks Cai for beta reading!

~*~.:.~*~

“Who is she?” asked the raven haired boy, looking through his round black glasses. It was odd that most people would consider that look dorky, while James Potter was one of the most popular boys in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. His hair was messy, his eyes were a dark hazel, he was arrogant and somewhat cocky, yet, he had a good amount of so called ‘fans.’ The only girl he wanted to be with, however, was the one and only Lily Evans, who his three best friends had long got tired of hearing about.

“That’s what I just asked you. Who is she? I’ve never seen her around before,” asked the boy sitting just beside him; his best friend Sirius. Well, neither were boys anymore. At seventeen years old, close to finishing their last year in school even if September had just recently begun, neither of the four were boys anymore.

They had grown up to be quite the handsome bunch, actually. James had given up on any other girl other than Lily, Remus Lupin didn’t quite have that interest his friends possessed, and Petter Pettigrew just didn’t know what he was doing. Sirius Black seemed to be the only one who still chased the girls, using an undeniably charming smile to lure them into a date. He hadn’t quite found a girl like James had found Lily.

“She’s new. She was home schooled until this year. I believe she’s in Hufflepuff,” replied Remus, who was amused by his friend’s inquiry. He turned in his seat across from his friends at the Great Hall. Everyone was eating breakfast at the moment, but in a far off corner stood a group of about three girls. One already had her books for class, and that was the one all four had stared at until another accompanying girl nudged the one holding the books to point at them, and all four looked away.

“I think her name is Emily, but I don’t know her last name. Interested already Padfoot?” added Remus, the same amused smile playing at his lips before he innocently continued his breakfast.

“Maybe. I’m just curious,” replied Sirius, his eyes once again rising to examine that same girl again. She was lively laughing along with her friends, her slender figure sophisticated but she seemed to have no problem cutting loose. Dark raven-almost pitch black- curls hugged her cheeks and framed forehead, but her hair was short and bouncy as she talked along with her friends.

For a moment, Sirius’ grey eyes met her sea blue ones across the hall, but again he looked down at his plate and pretended he had done nothing.

“I think Mister Padfoot has got new prey to go after,” snickered Peter, earning him a raised eyebrow from James. He looked over the girl himself, watching her before she finally exited the hall.

“She looks like a bookworm. I never thought a bookworm would be your type, Padfoot. That’s more like Moony,” he teased, but all Sirius did was smirk, Remus rather smiling smugly.

“I’d go for anything, really,” Sirius finally replied. “She didn’t look so bad. Plus, all I did was ask who she was. How did this suddenly develop into me trying to go after her? I’ve never even spoken to her …”

“That’s never stopped you before-”

“Leave it alone. Honestly, all I did was ask who she was. Is that so terribly wrong?” he asked dramatically, as if pretending to be hurt by an insult that hadn’t been there.

The three accompanying friends exchanged a knowing look before they snickered under their breath. He knew the look of curious inquiry and slight interest Sirius seemed to develop when his eyes lay upon a certain girl, and they had just spotted it when his eyes lay upon this particular Hufflepuff.

Emily, according to Moony.

~*~.:.~*~

Once conversation had drifted off to something far distant from girls and dates, such as pranks and the load of homework the friends had received so soon into their school year, they soon realized it was time to part from each other. Peter had Potions, James had Muggle Studies, while Remus and Sirius both had Transfiguration. They all had Defense Against the Dark Arts together this year though, which was a definite plus.

“Don’t forget your textbook, McGonagall threatened to give you detention if you don’t bring it to class again,” casually called the brunette Gryffindor prefect as he headed up the stairs. Sirius suddenly froze, an expression of almost utter disbelief across his face. His textbook!

Remus sighed knowingly. “You forgot it,” he declared. Shuffling his books in his arm a little, he checked his wristwatch.

“You got a good fifteen or so minutes to get back to the tower, find it, and get back to Transfiguration. If you run, maybe you won’t be too late,” he added, but before he had completely finished his words, Sirius had yelled a thanks over his shoulder and was sprinting down the hallway. He couldn’t get detention again! It could become a problem once he came down to planning dates with certain girls.

Sirius had made quite the dash to make it in time. It was more of the search in his messy trunk that took him so long. At last, he finally found the desired book before checking his own watch and figuring out he still had a few more minutes.

He flipped through a couple of the pages as he hurriedly headed down the hallway, just remembering his homework was supposed to be somewhere between those pages. He hopefully wouldn’t have to go all the way back to the tower and find that too.

Without realizing it, he had carelessly bumped into someone, too emerged in his frantic search for his notes. He looked up in time to mumble a sorry, when he nearly froze as he came upon those same blue eyes he had admired this morning.

Sirius blinked in the realization, suddenly wondering if he had truly just been left speechless—breath taken by her.

“Uh-sorry, I wasn’t paying attention,” he excused himself. He gave her his signature move, grey fathomless eyes seeming to sparkle as a charming smile was sent her way, and he shuffled his forgotten books to stretch out his hand to her.

The girl merely nodded in acknowledgement, sending him a simple smile. She had not fallen for his looks as so often girls easily did, but maybe this one was rather shy.

“Emily Sabell,” she replied as she returned the hand shake. Before Sirius could get a strike at starting up a conversation and figuring out what was it that she liked and disliked, she was also checking her watch hurriedly. “Hey, I got class now, but I’ll see you around,” she smiled politely, and without a further word, she was walking down the hallway the same way Sirius had just come from, her robes following at her ankles.

He could not quite remember when someone had so frankly rejected him before. He stood, a bit dumbfounded, in the middle of the hallway just staring at the spot in which her bouncy yet short curls had disappeared, before he too realized he was late to class.

He had not even sparked a bit of interest! She was far from even caring to speak to him, which he found awfully odd. He stuck by his original idea; she was shy. After all, he had barely gotten a glimpse of those sea blue orbs since that morning’s breakfast. And now that he thought about it, he hoped he would be seeing them a lot more often.

His feet absent-mindedly guided him to McGonagall’s classroom, and the very first words that broke into his thoughts and pulled him back to reality were the sneer, “You’re late, Mr. Black.”

*giggles* Poor Sirius! Emily didn't even notice him... Hee hee! It's okay... I still love you!


I can't wait to see what happens next... please post soon Niky, or I'll die!!!

Thankfully, only points were deducted from Sirius as he came in late to class. Although he did hear a couple of mumbles from other Gryffindors and some snickers from Slytherins, he ignored them and walked right past them. He took a seat beside his best friend Remus, and the lesson went on with the same level of bored-ness every other lesson seemed to be made up for. Sirius was quite happy to flee the classroom once it was all over.

His second class went by, third, and finally it was time for lunch. He ran a hand through his thick black hair, messing it up a bit so it fell before his eyes a bit. He was still awfully confused as to why Emily had passed up the chance for a talk with him, although it really could be that she was a studious student and wanted to get to class on time… even if she was late as it was. Maybe she was shy, or could it be one of her friends had warned him away from her? After all, lots of rumours flied around when it came to who he dated.

He was probably just blowing this much out of proportion. She had been late to class, and she had wanted to get there on time just as he had meant to do. He sighed, and as his eyes looked up, he noticed right in front of him, at the entrance of the hall, stood the same beauty he had been trying to figure out all morning.

If all year was going to be like this, then he might have a problem.

“Hey Emily!” he called to her as he began to walk her way. She turned with a beaming smile, which fell a bit as she discovered who had called her. She had been expecting someone different.

“Hi… Sirius,” she replied with a polite smile, for a moment looking like she had forgotten his name.

“Did you end up being late to class?” Lame…

“Yeah, but I was forgiven for being new into the school,” she replied a bit carelessly, her blue eyes looking towards the Great Hall tables again.

“I can show you around if you’d like,” he offered, trying to pull out that charm most girls seem to like in him.

“No, that’s fine—”

“Emily!”

They both turned on the spot another Hufflepuff girl, and two other Ravenclaws, who were calling out to her with a smile, inviting her to come along to wherever they were going.

The same beaming smile had been replaced upon her lips, but even as she turned to face Sirius she was still acting far too polite. “Anyway, I have to go, I’ll see you around.”

She nearly ran up to her friends and away from him, one of her friends holding onto her to whisper something in her ear, curious eyes watching him before the four girls set off down the hall and away from his eyes. He sighed. What in the world had he done wrong?

Away from anyone else that had just seen Emily run off almost eagerly away from him, he entered the hall in the hopes some lunch would make things better. He took a seat beside James without even thinking it, and began to pour food onto his plate. Remus and James exchanged curious looks, while Peter was too busy eating to worry about anything.

“Hey mate, what’s on your mind?” asked Prongs as he patted his best friend on the back as if to bring him back to reality. He looked too mellow and down for nothing to be on his mind, for more often than not he was cheerful and full of jokes for anyone who wanted to listen.

“Nothing,” he lied as he stuffed some pork and asparagus into his mouth.

“Right,” replied Remus sarcastically, but neither of them four added more to their statement. They just kept eating and waited… waited…

“What did you do to Lily?” Sirius broke the silence, as James and Remus had expected him too. However, that was not the question they had been expected in the least.

“What did I do to Lily?” James demanded, as if insulted by his friend’s words.

“Yeah, she used to hate you for picking on Snivellus, now you’re dating her and according to you she’s more and more in love with you every day. What did you do to her?”

James seemed stunned by this question. He had never been asked that in such a manner. It sounded as if his friend was accusing him of cursing her or something. Remus seemed to notice the expression across James’ face and laughed.

“He means how did you do it. How did you get someone that hated you to love you, especially someone that hard headed,” he helped Padfoot before he ate some more of his lunch.

“Oh-uh.. I don’t know, I pretty much did as she wanted me to. I stopped slacking off, I stopped playing pranks on Snivellus, I started paying attention in class, and I kept reminding her I was doing it for her … Guess it worked…” James murmured, much too confused to realize there was probably a purpose behind that question.

“What if you don’t know what she wants of you?” Sirius asked, trying to extract every bit of help he could from his friends.

“Emily rejected you, huh,” Remus said casually, eating some mashed potatoes before his smirk broke onto his lips.

Sirius hesitated a minute or two, wondering how on earth had he figured that out or even if to admit it. He finally settled for a “maybe…”

“And you can’t understand why,” James finally caught on, letting go of Sirius’ previous question to tend to a new discovery. Just as they had all predicted this morning, Sirius had his eye on the new Hufflepuff.

“I really can’t. I mean come on I can’t even speak to her because she finds a way to blow me off! What am I supposed to do if she refuses to talk to me?” he suddenly exclaimed, before he stuffed his mouth with more food as if in regret that he had let that slip.

“Sirius, you have a reputation for switching from girl to girl much too often. Someone probably told her that you don’t quite stick to the same girl for too long, and she doesn’t want that. She’s probably avoiding you so she won’t have you thinking she wants to date you, then end up with a broken heart,” Remus replied as casually as if he had been speaking out about the sunny weather outside.

Sirius and James just stared at him as if he had just sprouted another head with three horns and a purple eye.

“How do you know that?” James suddenly asked purely amazed.

Remus shrugged. “I hear things,” he said simply before taking a sip of his pumpkin juice.

Sirius, however, had remained quiet, thinking. Remus had a point. Could possibly be the reason for the treatment he was receiving from Emily? But he wasn’t like that anymore! He hadn’t dated a girl in quite some time actually… how on earth was he supposed to prove to her that he had changed anyway?

AWESOME!
Can't wait to read more!! Don't make me get the acorns out!

Kidding!

<3

This was getting ridiculous. It had been weeks since Sirius Black had laid eyes on the new Hufflepuff, and the most he had gotten out of her was a ten minute conversation which a friend so happily interrupted to drag her away. If he didn’t know better, it looked like that had been arranged.

He didn’t have a date with this girl; he barely knew that much about her at all. He knew her name, her favorite class, and that she simply hated to be not-early to class. It was like a need of her to sit in class much before the class started; unless she just said that to avoid him, which didn’t seem all that unlikely either.

Sirius had grown frustrated with this game. He could do nothing to grasp her attention, no matter what it was. The charming didn’t work, the flirting didn’t work, the gentlemanly ways didn’t work. He even tried studying! Nothing worked, nothing got her attention.

His buddies had encouraged him onto a new girl to try to get a date with, they even tried finding that girl themselves, but Sirius refused. There was something about Emily, something peculiar that no one else seemed to possess; or maybe it was the thrill of the hunt for the specific girl that wouldn’t pay attention.

He was thinking about this for the millionth time that week as he crossed through the courtyard to back into the castle for lunch. Really, this was ridiculous. Out of the corner of his grey eyes, he spotted those raven bouncy curls that could only belong to one person. She was laughing.

Immediately, he stepped back and hid. He had yet to make Emily laugh, yet she was laughing vividly now. He’d have to learn how to do that for himself.

As he tried to listen in more clearly, he realized she was talking to another boy. He furrowed his brow, for the more he spoke, the more he seemed to be flirting. He told quite obvious jokes, spoke to her sweetly, and she giggled in return. How was it possible that he had done all of that much better than this guy, and she had never giggled?

Curious, he peeked his head slightly to catch sight of who she was talking to. It was a Ravenclaw he recognized, was Robin his name? Something along those lines. He wasn’t known for being with various girls or even all that many girlfriends at all. That he remembered, he had dated one for about a year or two, then gotten into a nasty fight and broke it off the year before. He was somewhat quiet, passive even, but he guessed he could be considered kind.

And Emily liked him?

By the sound of her laughter, she was truly enjoying herself. Irritated, Sirius walked out of his hiding spot and right past them. Normally, a smile was sent back to Emily whenever he passed her, but not this time. He didn’t even glance over his shoulder at them, or a look out of the corner of his eye.

This wasn’t right. No Robin guy would take his Emily away. Well… not officially his Emily… it was work in progress, but no one would interrupt and take that from him.

He’d have to find a way to get this guy out of the picture somehow.

*giggles* First to post... again!


I loved it Niky... but I feel so bad for my Sirikins! *huggles him* It's okay... Emily's just being a girl... give her another chance. LOL!


Anyway... post more, deary. I need more! PAMS PAMS PAMS PAMS PAMS!!!!
