No fun tag! | Haha, Zombie! | Nyeaarr! We arrived at Hogwarts shortly, and I thought the train ride was shorter then usual. I settled myself at the Gryffindor Table, and was shocked when Sirius sat down beside me. I stared at him blankly and he winked at me. I scowled and turned away from him.
The Sorting went by quickly, not that I was paying a great deal of attention to it anyway. I amused myself by playing absent-mindly with my wand. Suddenly, I was jabbed in the side and I looked to my left. Sirius was frowning at me, clearly concerned.
"Oi! Bug off!" I said, glowering.
"Hey! I was just seeing if you were all right. You weren't paying attention to the Sorting. We got-"
"I don't care, Sirius. Which is probably why I wasn't paying attention!" I retorted, looking down at my empty plate.
"Ke, aren't you hungry?" Remus asked softly from my right.
I shook my head, frowning. I was hungry just a few minutes ago. What made me lose my appetite?
A few minutes later, and dessert appeared on the table. I eyed the apple pie sitting right in front of me. Remus must've noticed, because he took a piece and put it on my plate.
"Eat," he whispered, poking me gently in the arm. I stared him blankly, and he smiled weakly. I sighed and gave in.

I sat in the almost empty common room, yawning. Remus, James and Lily kept telling me to go to sleep until they finally crashed, but I never really listened. My eyelids started getting heavy, but I still wouldn't go to bed.
I heard shuffling and I jumped. I looked around wildly, but there was nobody there. I frowned and decided I imagined it.
Somebody or something touched my shoulder and I almost screamed my head off. Luckily, I caught sight of the person who touched me, but it didn't stop me from jumping 5 feet into the air.
"Oi! Black! Don't you dare do that again!" I hissed, smacking Sirius over the head with a pillow.
"Sorry!!!" he whispered, covering his head with his arms. "I didn't mean to scare you!"
I crossed my arms and glared at him. After a few seconds, my expression softened and he sat down beside me.
"I don't like Lily," he said randomly.
"I know... Why do you think I care?"
