Tutoring Problems, Chapter 1.

"Where is he?" Lily asked herself, yet agian. This red haired, green eyed beauty had been asking herself that same question for what seemed like every 5 seconds for the last hour.'Why me? Why do they always pick me?' She thought to herself.

Flashback

"Miss Evans, could you see me after class?" Asked professor McGonagall (well not so much as asked but demanded her).

"Sure, Professor" replied Lily.

After class Lily approach the teacher's desk with a wry air. Every time a teacher asked her to see her it was always the same story, some "poor" student would need some extra help with this subject or that but in reality the teachers had tried every other tactic to get them to clam down and study and it seemed that lily had the magic touch. Now standing in front of McGonagall's desk Lily could only imagine which little bundle of joy she was about to get.

"You wanted to see me Professor?" asked Lily.

"Yes, it's about helping another student," she said with just a hint of reluctence, as if remembering what happened to the last tutor he had. "He needs quite a bit of help. I know we teachers seem to always pick on you but you're one our best student and this one need all the help he can get. And besides I already told him that you had excepted the job." She said giving me a look that clearly said ' try and object and see what happens.'

"It's alright professor I don't mind helping out" Lily said with defeat lacing her voice. She gave up without even thinking about it now. "Who is this kid anyway?"

"Sirius Black"

Lily's jaw dropped. 'No way. Can't do it. Not gonna happen.' That was all that would run through Lily's mind at that moment. Not that she would say any of that to her Professor. "Well um… I'll just go and… um… and find him now. Goodbye Professor."

End flashback

After finding Black (thankfully Potter was no where to be seen) and finally getting him to meet her in the transfiguration room, she left to try and figure out a way to get through this with out killing the each other. "If he's not here in 5 minutes I'm going to…" Lily said to herself once again.

"Calm down Lily flower. I'm here, no need to worry that pretty little head of yours. Yours truly has arrived." Said a voice from behind her.

Lily turned around and saw the owner of the voice. Sirius Black running down the hall towards her. The sun was coming down at angle that seemed to high light every strand of his black hair. When he finally came to a stop in front of her, she found his deep gray eyes staring down into her hers. He was at least a head taller then her, with a muscular figure. He was currently giving Lily he award winning smile that would have had any other girl melting into his arms then and there, but alas it was completely lost on this practical red head.

"About time Black, I was just about to leave."

"Awe… come on Lily you know any girl, and a few choice men, would kill to be in your position right now."

"Yeah but I'm not one of them. As I said before I would rather go on a date with the giant squid then be here with you."

"Well that could be arranged if you're into that sort of thing."

"Stuff it, Black."

"Oh, clam down little Miss Prissy. No need to get worked up about it."

"Just come on, we have a lot to do before we go to dinner"

She turned and headed into the classroom. She had already moved some of the desk to give them more space (and less things for Sirius to hit and cause damage to, which was bound to happen considering who is was.)

"Now, one question before we begin. Why did you ask for my help and not just ask one of your friends. And," Putting up a hand when he tried to object. "Before you say anything I know for a fact that I'm the last person you want and this has been proven on may of an occasion."

"Well you're one to beat around the bush aren't you?" he asked with a smile. "Let's just say that none of them are as good a teacher as you, huh?"

"Okay, now I know you're up to something cause I know you hate it when I try to tell you how to do something." Lily said. She was getting pretty aggravated. "Let me guess, James sent you here to try and get me to go out with him or to try and find out someway to sweep me off my feet and fall madly in love with him."

"Dang, you're good. Moony was right when he said this wouldn't work out well." Concluded Sirius with a shrug.

"I know, James tried to do the same thing in third year, except he had Remus do the dirty work. I had him riding into the middle of transfiguration on a white stallion, all the while trying to sing a love ballad. Oh Merlin, the look on his face when he realized who's class he just interrupted. I believe he won the most detentions that year." Reminisced Lily.

"Oh, now I remember that. You know I think he actually got about 3 dates after that incident." Remarked Sirius. "You know he actually is a nice guy. I mean he may not be prince charming when it comes to some things but the man is pretty damn close to it. And he has changed over the years, though for the better I'm not quite sure."

"I know Sirius, I just can't believe it is all. He hasn't picked on Snape at all so far. Well actually that's stretching it a bit but not as much as before." Lily said thoughtfully.

"Then why wont you give him a chance?"

"Cause I hate to lose." Mumbled a thoughtful Lily.

"What?" asked Sirius.

"Oh, never mind. We should probably get started if we don't want to miss dinner. So McGonagall said you needed help with transfiguring objects into animals, I think." Said Lily getting back to business.

"Yeah that's it." Answered Sirius. He was still trying to figure out Lily comment from before. She thought he hadn't heard her but he did. 'How would getting together with James mean losing something?' thought Sirius. He was still thinking this when Lily was showing him how to do the spell.

"Okay, now you try it." Said Lily, snapping Sirius out of his thoughts.

"Sure, no problem." Said Sirius. He stood in the middle of the classroom and flicked his wand. He sent the spell towards a chair and the results where less then satisfying. He was trying to change the chair in to an owl but ended up with a chair covered in feathers and a pair of wings.

"Well, it was a nice try, I guess." Stated Lily. "We'll try again, but this time concentrate more on the owl you want to make instead of changing it." Advised Lily.

"Sure, no problem." Replied Sirius, his thoughts still elsewhere. He was about to cast the spell; when the door flew open, causing Sirius to aim at the wrong thing. Now he was able to change the object into an owl, it just wasn't the chair. Sitting where Lily used to be was a black owl with pricing green eyes.

"Sirius, there you are I was looking all over for you. Do you know where Lily is?" asked Remus from the doorway. "Sirius did you hear me?"

Sirius wasn't looking at Remus. He was looking at the owl. "Uh oh, this can't be good." He said. "Lily please tell me that's not you."

The owl suddenly sprang up and flew towards Sirius at an alarming speed. The owl started pecking and clawing at Sirius's face. "Owe, not the face, anything but the face." Screamed Sirius. The owl suddenly jerked back and seemed to think about what to do next. The owl suddenly dived down towards Sirius. This time just a little -more like a lot- more south then his face.

"Okay, you can attack the face just don't hurt the little one." Screamed Sirius, all the while running around the classroom in circles.

"Sirius I know you have problems with animals but can you put that thing in a cage and tell me where Lily is. McGonagall's looking for her." Said Remus. He was trying not to laugh at his friend's antics.

"Remus help me!" yelled Sirius.

Remus just sighed and conjured up a cage in front of the owl. It didn't even have time to slow down; it just crashed into the bars.

"Now tell me where Lily is, Sirius." Said Remus, as he walked over to pick up the cage.

"Well if I'm right which I usually am." Said Sirius as he walked over to an eye rolling Remus and the owl. "You're now holding her in a cage."

"Sirius stop lying. I need to know now, cause McGonagall is throwing a fit because the head boy and girl are suppose to be at the prefect meeting right now." Said Remus, getting angry "And I don't have time for one of your silly little pranks."

"I'm not joking. We were practicing that new transfiguration spell and when you opened the door I kind of turned and aimed at the wrong thing and I think I hit lily with it instead."
