Here's the 2nd half!
Nothing to say really... (good for you guys! You'd be skipping through a long rambling session if I did)
Enjoy

As she neared a part of the shoreline, she saw Sirius sitting on a log a few feet in front of the lake, sitting slightly bent over with his arms resting on his legs. Watching at a distance, he still seemed tranquil, compared to what Dezi was used to that is.
“Hello,” she said, smiling slightly. Sirius looked over his shoulder and returned her smile and moved over on the log, giving an extra space for her to sit down. Taking advantage of the offer, she sat down.
“So... how are you?” Dezi asked, looking out over the lake as well.
“Fine,” Sirius responded, shrugging. A short silence sat between the two of them.
“So...” Dezi asked slowly, unsure of what else to ask.
He turned his attention to her after a few moments.
“I just want to say thanks for inviting me to... well you place really, for Christmas.”
“Well... your welcome I guess...” Dezi responded slowly.
“That was honestly the best Christmas I’ve ever had in my life,” he said.
“Really? I mean, I heard you moved in with gra...” Dezi stopped herself, realizing she just about said ‘grandpa’, since that’s how she referred to Harry’s dad. “James, in the summer...”
“Yeah, summer of going into this year. If I wasn’t here right now, I might be at the Potter Manor, but...” his voice trailed off, swallowed up in the black of the night as he turned his attention back to the lake.
“But... what?” Dezi asked after a few moments of silence.
“I’d rather be here,” he practically whispered; Dezi had to think about what he just said because she barely caught it herself.
“This hell-hole?” Dezi asked, slightly surprised. Sirius then turned and looked at her.
“As long as you’re around people you love, you don’t really take notice in the hell going on around you,” he responded. Dezi was surprised at how wise his response sounded.
“But... what about your other friends; James, Lupin, Lily, Pettigrew...”
“Well I technically got to see one of those four,” Sirius responded, smirking slightly. “So there’s no way in knowing where the others are right now...?”
“I’m not sure if I can say really... bad things happen to wizards that meddle with time.”
“What about me, though? Can’t I at least know where I’m at... what age I’m supposed to be at this day and time...”
“What don’t you want to know?” Dezi asked playfully.
Sirius laughed, his grey eyes sparkling in the moonlight. “Now that I think about that...”
“Not another list!” Dezi said dramatically.
“Well I was about to say I don’t want to know when I have to leave, but...”
“You don’t want to leave?” Dezi asked curiously. “Don’t you miss your time?”
“The time where my brother haunts me and I get in even more trouble?”
“What about friends?” she cut in.
“The one friend I have right now I rather enjoy being with,” Sirius responded simply, smiling faintly. Dezi looked at him curiously, surprised more than anything.
“Really?” she whispered. Sirius nodded, refusing her gaze for that moment.
And then another awkward silence engulfed them. Dezi started noticing more stars popping up in the shadows of the sky.
“There’s something else...” Sirius said finally, causing Dezi’s attention to turn back to him.
“What?” she asked. He turned his gaze to her. In that moment, the shining white of the moon appeared and he kissed her.
