Disclaimer: Sirius Black, James Potter, Lily _______?, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, and Professor Dumbledore belong to JK Rowling. Evryone else is MINE!MINE!MINE!MINE! lol (I'm feeling a little psycho)
Prologue: Okay, this is actually a sort of author's note, but anyway. I was thrilled to open the fourth Harry Potter book ( The Goblet of Fire) and find that JK Rowling wrote about Bulgaria. I am Bulgarian and I personally think that our small Eastern European country located on the Balkan Peninsula is too often forgotten. We are small, but very smart (if I do say so myself). (Did you know that the inventor of the computer, thought often unaccredited, is actually a Bulgarian living in the US)? I was thrilled to see that someone had recognized us. Escpecially in such a popular book!. Until I read it all the way through. I must say, I was quite disappointed at the incorrect way that our people were portrayed. They were almost like criminals! Death Eaters, losers . . .
So in this fanfic, I created a character who was characteristic to our culture. And I gave her my name (well, my first name). It's not of Bulgarian origin (Italian, I think), it is mine. The girl does not speak with an accent (which by the way was portrayed like a Russian accent in the book. Actually, Bulgarians speaking English often produce flat sounds instead of rolling R's and a flat duh for the th sound.). A lot of Bulgarian speak Russian and another language (often German, French or English) fluently, as well as their native Bulgarian. I have created a typical and realistic Bulgarian girl (with a sense of humor) who . . . just happens to fall for Sirius Black in their fourth year at Hogwarts.
~~~~~ Firsts: Meetings, Kisses ~~~~~
I eyed the boy to my right. He was tall, strong, with a mischievous grin and sparkling eyes. He laughed at some joke his friend told him. I sighed.
He turned to me, still smiling. "What's wrong Adriana? That's your name, right?"
I nodded. "Addie's my nickname. And you're Sirius?"
He nodded. "Are you in the fourth year too? I haven't seen you much before."
"I am. I just transferred here from Rosalind Academy of Magical Arts in Bulgaria. My dad got transferred to London."
"Cool. Well, these are James, Remus, Lily, Peter, and Cordelia."
"Hi," They said in unison.
I smiled shyly at them. I'm not usually shy, only when I first meet someone. But Sirius had my stomach tied in knots. He looked like Vladimir, my boyfriend in Bulgaria. With his dark hair and laughing eyes.
I picked up my goblet of juice. Then I swallowed and joined in their conversation.
**********
Sirius and I had Care for Magical Creatures together that afternoon. I couldn't concentrate properly on the phoenix I was supposed to feed. All I could feel was Sirius moving swiftly beside me. He was my partner.
"Ugh. Will this thing eat anything?" He asked in frustration and threw the lettuce he had been holding. Then we both reached for a bucket containing small fish. Our hands brushed and we both looked up at each other. Sirius laughed.
"You like me don't you? I like you too." He asked, still laughing.
I was startled by his honesty. Then I smiled, seeing no reason to hide my feelings. If he didn't like me, too bad for him. "Yeah. I do. Do you have a girlfriend?"
He laughed again. "As a matter of fact, I don't. Would you like to volunteer for the position? I'll have to give you a trial run though."
His lips landed squarely on mine. I didn't pull back. Wow. He's a good kisser, I thought.
"Hey little love birds. You better quit the tonsil hockey, cause Professor Garvey is coming this way." James warned. Sirius and I laughed and pulled back. I looked at him and saw that my pink watermelon flavored lip gloss was smeared over his mouth. I laughed.
"What?" He asked.
I continued to laugh. James and Remus joined me.
Professor Garvey strolled over to us to check on our phoenix. I quickly turned my back on everyone, wiped my mouth of the lip gloss and grabbed a small fish from the bucket. Then I spun back around and smiled sweetly at the approaching Professor. I tried to feed the bird again.
He seemed to like the fish. He practically swallowed it whole. I dipped my hand in the bucket and brought out a handful. I fed it to him, one by one. Sirius was still trying to figure out why we had laughed at him. He had his back turned and didn't see Professor Garvey approaching. I hid my grin, pretending to wipe my mouth with my hand.
"Hello Professor," I smiled again.
Sirius froze and motioned for me to give him a fish. I did, and he turned to face the Professor, mouth still smeared with pink lip gloss.
I giggled behind my hand. I knew Sirius wouldn't get in trouble. Professor Garvey has a good sense of humor. He himself often plays jokes on us.
"Gee, Mr. Black, who have you been kissing?" the professor grinned.
"Um, no one." Sirius lied uncomfortably, probably wondering how Garvey had guessed.
"I'm sure. You haven't kissed any girls. But are you wearing strawberry? Personally, I like peach best."
"He's wearing watermelon." I said seriously.
"Oh," Garvey nodded in understanding.
"Huh?" Sirius looked back and forth, confused. By then the whole class was smirking and giggling.
"Did you loan it to him Miss Ivanova?"
I nodded. "Uh huh. And I have to tell you, I agree Professor. I like peach best too."
Then I couldn't hold it anymore. I burst out laughing, along with the professor and the rest of the class.
After I had regained control of myself, letting loose only a few giggles, I whispered to Sirius, "You have my pink lip gloss smeared all over your mouth."
He licked his lips thoughtfully. "You know, this stuff is sweeter than Honeydukes' best chocolate. I should get some for myself. Did you get it from Bulgaria?"
And I collapsed again, laughing. The rest of the class did too, Sirius laughing more than anyone else.
That was our first kiss. Many more followed. Sirius made it a point to buy the same lip gloss (From Collette's Cosmetic Cauldron) I had worn that first day and wear it to every Care for Magical Creatures class we had afterwards. Professor Garvey bought him another pack, 'for emergencies' for Christmas.
~~~~~ The Black Jokers ~~~~~
By our sixth year, we were known as the Black Jokers. We played pranks on everyone who crossed our path. We attended each Halloween Feast dressed as medieval jokers in matching costumes. But we were like twins, never separating for more than two hours. During the summer vacation he visited me in Bulgaria.
Everything seemed perfect when I entered my seventh year at Hogwarts. Sirius and I made out in the back cart of the train during the whole journey, nonstop. He had visited me for a month that summer. It was like a dream.
Everything was totally perfect. At the feast we planned the jokes we would play on the first years. Then I sneaked into his dorm and we whispered all night.
The next day in our Transfiguration we set off (New and Improved Extra Strong Odor) Dungbombs. McGonagall had a cow and gave us detentions. We grinned happily at each other and set off for Care of Magical Creatures. Before we got there Sirius pulled a tube of watermelon gloss and spread it over his lips, grinning. I grinned back at him and motioned for him to give me the tube.
He handed it over and I spread it over my own mouth. Then we kissed until we couldn't breathe. We were still gasping for air when we arrived to the class.
"Makeout session?" Lily asked grinning. I noticed that she was gasping too.
I nodded. "You too?" I noticed that James and Sirius were whispering to each other furiously. They laughed once in a while. Lily and I strolled over to them.
"Where's Remus?" Lily asked them.
"Huh? Oh he's . . . sick." James looked a bit uncomfortable.
"Bad cough." Sirius added.
"If you say so." I shrugged. Professor Garvey strolled over to us and explained what we were supposed to do. He grinned when he noticed Sirius' mouth.
"Still kissing Miss Ivanova Mr. Black?" Sirius grinned back.
"Yeah. Still." He looked at me and I smiled angelically.
The rest of the class laughed.
~~~~~ Relationship 411 ~~~~~
We couldn't keep our hands off each other that year. Every night almost we would snuggle on an extra large armchair in the common room and make out or whisper to each other. Sometimes he snuck into my dorm, sometimes I into his. Lily and the other girls never minded. Neither did James and Remus and the rest of the boys in Sirius' dorm.
I didn't take a breath without Sirius knowing about it. But I didn't mind. He wasn't the jealous type. He was only concerned. We had our fair share of fights though. Quite a few actually. And some really nasty ones. We cursed each other quite badly once in our fifth year; Sirius ended up in the hospital wing with a pig snout and tail, while I had cat ears and green hair.
But we always made up. Eventually.
~~~~~ The Christmas Ball ~~~~~
On December 24, in our seventh year I woke up to find live fluttering fairies on my bed and ceiling. I smiled to myself and felt like I was about to burst with joy. God, Sirius is the best boyfriend in the world! I thought. I quickly woke Lily and Cordelia and the rest of the girls and we conjured come music and danced while the fairies fluttered around our heads. They landed in our hair and on our faces and we giggled.
"They tickle!" Lily laughed.
Sirius and James walked in that very moment. They told me and Lily to hurry and go downstairs to have breakfast because after that they would have a surprise for us. We dressed quickly and ran downstairs.
After breakfast, they blindfolded us and led us threw the heavy wooden doors to the cold outside. They let us take off our blindfolds after fifteen minutes. When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a clearing in the Forbidden Forest.
It was gorgeous. Icicles dripped from the snow covered trees and a soft blanket of snow covered the ground. And tied to two trees where two pure white unicorns!
The creatures were so gorgeous! They were muscular and sparkly white. Snow covered their silver manes and their horns were a soft icy pale lavender.
"Their for you." Sirius spoke.
I gasped.
"Well, at least for today." James added.
"They're . . . amazing." Lily looked as shocked as me.
" Can we ride them?" I asked timidly, for the first time noticing their strong white wings.
Sirius grinned his sweetest smile. "Of course." He whispered in my ear.
We where exhausted when we returned from the adventure. Lily and I hurried upstairs to change into dresses for the Christmas Ball.
I had bought a spectacular silver ball gown with a low neckline and layers and layers of taffeta for the skirt. I wore my chocolate brown hair into an elegant twist with silvery flower blossoms woven into it. On my neck I donned the large amethyst (on a delicate silver chain) Sirius had given me for my birthday.
Lily looked so pretty. Her flaming hair fell down her back all the way to her waist. She had emerald hair combs holding the soft waves in place. Her gown was deep forest green with gold embroidery. She looked like Queen Elizabeth (The First) with her red hair and medieval style gown.
When we met the boys at the bottom of the staircase, they gasped. The reaction which I had hoped for.
"Are you ready?" Sirius asked me.
"Of course I am." We entered the Great Hall and heads turned to look at us. It was mostly because of Sirius. He was so popular and . . . hot! I heard kids whispering all around us. I smiled at everyone and waved to our friends.
After we finished eating, the music started up. Sirius and I danced for every single song. Before the last dance, Sirius knelt before me in the middle of the dance floor.
"What are you doing?" I whispered to him.
"I'm expressing my feelings," he whispered back with his signature mischievous grin. Then he cleared his throat loudly. The whole Hall was staring at us.
"Adriana . . . I love you, as you probably already know," I grinned. " and I and I want to ask you to marry me. So . . . Will you marry me? And you better say yes because if you don't I wasted quite a few Galleons on this ring."
The whole Hall gasped as he opened a jewelry box containing a large but delicate ring with a gem which changed color every few seconds.
I grinned and pulled him up and into my arms. I kissed him nice and long. The Hall erupted in applause and cheers. Some boys whistled.
"Does that mean yes?" Sirius asked.
"Yes yes YES!" I grinned happily and he spun me around.
We were engaged. Our parents were delighted, and so was everyone else (including our teachers and headmaster; Dumbledore congratulated us personally). We planned to marry in August in Bulgaria.
~~~~~ The Hogsmeade Visit That Changed Everything ~~~~~
One night in mid may, Lily James, Remus, Peter, Cordelia and a few others snuck out of the one eyed witch to visit Hogsmeade and the Three Broomsticks. Sirius decided to stay behind and plan our wedding (and catch up on homework).
But as the time grew, we started making out more than actually studying.
"Do you want to go up to my dorm? It's empty you know. Everyone's at Hogsmeade." Sirius suggested between kisses.
"Okay," I agreed quickly.
As we tumbled on his bed, I felt some kind of fire inside me. I knew it was time. Time for us to get intimate. Sirius had nothing against the idea.
Two weeks later, the day of our N.E.W.Ts, I woke feeling horrible. I felt sick to my stomach. I threw up (you didn't want to know that, did you?) and forced myself to dress and go downstairs for breakfast. After breakfast the queasiness was gone.
This went on for the rest of the week, and each day it got worse and worse. Lily grew concerned. A week later, she came to me with a book of women's charms.
"Fertilio Cromus," She whispered as she pointed her wand at me. Two pink flashes.
"What are you doing Lil'?" I asked, alarmed.
She looked at me with wide eyes.
"You're pregnant. With twin girls." She whispered hoarsely.
Author's note: If you want more: ReViEw!!! Tell me even if you hate it! If I don't get at least ten reviews, I probably won't continue. I was originally planning on telling the story of the twin girls and their father, but if I don't get feedback . . .
