~CHAPTER ONE~
"Sirius!"
Sirius stirred but didn't open his eyes. He wasn't ready to get up. But some lady's persistent voice was growing louder.
"Sirius Black! Up! Come on get out! The camera's are ready!"
Sirius slowly opened his groggy eyes. Cameras?
The lady was in his room now, pulling his covers off. "UP."
Sirius finally sat up and everything that happened in the past few days came rushing back to him. The guy from the show. the show. bachelor.the girls. him. the star.eliminate.pick one.. marry.
Sirius yawned and turned to the lady, "Are we starting filming now?"
"As soon as you get your lazy bum outa bed we are. They're ready to start and you've been sleeping!"
"I'm up, I'm up." Sirius climbed out of bed and stretched, "Which way?"
The lady gaped, "You aren't seriously planning to go out in front of millions from the wizarding community like that?"
Sirius looked down at his worn blue jeans and gray t-shirt.
The lady shook her head, grabbed his arm and steered him out of the room. "To the makeup room!" she said, taking his arm.
"Makeup???" but it was too late. The lady had already led him into a room framed with stars and sat him down. About five different people came up and starting powdering his face and spraying all sorts of stuff in his hair. Some guy threw him some new clothes and pointed to a dressing room.
When Sirius emerged he was wearing dark blue jeans and a creased black button up shirt. He had all the buttons on the cuffs and front all buttoned but some lady ran up and undid the first three as well as the cuffs. Some other person draped a black robe around him.
Sirius scoffed at how they were pushing him around but didn't complain because he knew he was just minutes away from starting to find the love of his life..
He suddenly found many hands pushing him out of the room and into a hallway leading him to the mansion where he would be spending the next month.
The hands finally pushed him out into an open room where he was blinded by the bright lights.
Shading his eyes, Sirius looked around and found 10 girls standing in a semi circle in front of him.
His eyes fell first on Tonks who had her hair short and red, then on Hermione who was standing next to Ginny. He shifted his gaze and saw Madam Pomfrey, the Hogwarts school nurse, and next to her was Madam Rosmerta, who works at the Three Broomsticks. Then there was Professor Trelawney and Rita Skeeter. Next to them was Bellatrix Lange (Sirius made a mental note to be sure and let her go first. that would be too weird, plus wasn't she married anyways?). Then there was Professor McGonagall.
They all seemed very pleased to see him and stood there, anxiously waiting.
Then a loud voice came from somewhere followed by music, "Welcome to the first episode of the Bachelor!"
He heard clapping.
Then the voice again, "Sirius Black will have to choose between these ladies, eliminating one every three days. In the end, there will be one left. And that one will have the honor of marrying Sirius Black!"
The voice continued, "There will be various challenges and games as well as scheduled nights for dates with specific ladies to help Sirius choose his real love!"
More clapping.
"On day 28 will be the wedding! Leeeeeeet the show begin!!"
There was a deafening sound of clapping as all 10 girls and Sirius where led again away from the live audience and further into the mansion where only cameras would view them.
Sirius looked around at the ladies again, Tonks, Hermione, Ginny, Madam Pomfrey, Madam Rosmerta, Bellatrix Lange, Professor Trelawney, Rita Skeeter and Professor McGonagall.
One of them, he thought, I have to pick one of them to marry.
"Sirius!"
