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.
