Another Heart Calls

Chapter 1: Sirius

Ugh.

I am so sick and tired of all these stupid girls batting their eyelashes at me. Can't they tell that I just want to be left alone?

"Lisa Markowski just asked me to ask you if you'd go to Hogsmeade with her," James said, plopping down beside me with a knowing smirk.

"And did you tell her to piss off?" I replied dully taking a sip of the delicious French Onion soup in front of me.

James chuckled. "Nah I said I'd give it a shot."

I sighed and dipped some bread in my soup.

"…Well?"

I turned my head to glare at him and he raised his hands defensively as he laughed.

"Brilliant. Now I can console her," he said rubbing his hands together and grabbing a few chicken legs.

I laughed gruffly. "Pathetic, James."

"What's he done now?" Remus asked as he joined us, reaching for some chicken of his own.

I rolled my eyes, flicking some hair off my face and returned to my soup. Peter who had been watching me as he scarfed down potatoes, jerked his head similarly, a stray lock of his wispy hair floating straight up. I choked on my soup with laughter and James pounded on my back, biting his lip to keep from grinning. We glanced at each other but didn't comment on the gesture.

"Anyway, I've decided to seduce Lisa Markowski," James announced, shifting the focus.

Remus raised an eyebrow. "Hate to break it to you mate, but she's sweet on Padfoot."

"Ah, I'm sure I'll find a way to…convince her," James said with a cocky grin.

"But what about Evans, Prongs?" Wormtail spoke up, his cheek bulging with potatoes.

James shrugged indifferently but flattened his hair as he replied, "Evans is more trouble than she's worth."

I knew he wasn't being completely honest because of the hair flattening. He's long since realized his hair looks better rumpled, so he doesn't do that unless he's nervous or lying. I decided not to give him away though and instead used a piece of bread to scoop up the remainder of my soup. When the dish was clean, I moved it methodically to the side and set up a plate with chicken, mashed potatoes and broccoli carefully arranging them so nothing was touching each other. I lazily lifted my wand and vanished the bowl of soup. It was an impressive gesture, though I couldn't be sure it had ended up back in the kitchens where I'd intended.

When I tuned back into my friends' conversation, taking a sip of pumpkin juice, I realized that Remus was still lecturing James on the treatment of women.

"I mean really, its quite clear you still fancy Lily – so why not give more attention to maturing so you can impress her, instead of hooking up with a new girl every week!"

Seeing James fidget with his napkin, tearing it into shreds as Remus plundered on, I spoke up.

"Oh give it a rest Moony, James is at perfect liberty to do what he wants with who he wants."

Remus stopped, shutting his mouth with a snap as he glared disapprovingly at me. I held his stare for a few moments and eventually he sighed and returned to his food.

Although he shot me an appreciative look, James looked uncomfortable for a moment before he said, "You know Remus, I reckon you're right. I should stop."

Remus looked up in surprise, "So you won't hook up with Lisa?"

James smirked "I didn't say I would stop, I just said I should…" He winked playfully and the rest of us laughed in amusement.

"You're hopeless," Remus said with a chuckle and a shake of his head.

Peter began to talk about his Muggle Studies homework so, losing interest, I turned to look away from the Gryffindor table, around the Great Hall. My eyes glazed over a few eyelash-batters and came to rest on Her. Samantha Morgan.

Feeling my blood boil slightly, I took another sip of my pumpkin juice as my eyes panned over to her jerk of a boyfriend Kevin Collins. He was stroking her long, corn-silk hair and she had a seductive smile on her face. She was exquisite.

And, I hated her.

"Padfoot, you're staring again," Wormtail whispered.

"I know," I said, still glaring.

"Sirius…" Remus began disapprovingly.

"Mate, come on – you've left your fork on the table," James interrupted. I turned sharply and picked it up. Muttering a spell to clean it off unnecessarily, I stabbed at my chicken and continued to eat. There was some silence for a long while until Moony cleared his throat.

"Honestly mate, it's been months!"

"Don't. Start," I grumbled and polished off the remaining items on my plate. The other guys had already started on pudding. I vanished my plate again and huffily grabbed a slice of apple pie. James nudged me with slight concern, but I just shrugged.

Stupid Samantha Morgan. She ruined my life.
