Chapter One - O
Disclaimer for the entire story: I am not J.K. Rowling, sadly enough.
A/N Okay, so this is chapter one of a 24 chaptered fic circulating around Sirius Black and an OC. Also, each chapter is a song fic, too. It is like there is a song for each chapter in the story. It is actually pretty cool. Anyway, please read this and let me know what you all think of it and any constructive criticism is much appreciated. And without further ado, here's a tale of complicated love. :)
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has housed many students throughout its existence, and most of its graduates become important, hard working people. However, upon entering Hogwarts, they had absolutely no idea as to what they were soon to be, as was the beautiful gift of life. But, their stays at Hogwarts were always those of great memories. The majority of the students were average; however, there were seven special people who were beyond average, beyond everything. More so, the relationships within these seven people were those the population of Hogwarts School enjoyed gossiping about.
Chasing fireflies
Elusive dreams
This pre-life crisis
Is killing me
A beautiful tragedy
Who I was, I wasn't me
Four of the seven are boys, but not just any boys, the Marauders. James Potter, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, and, the girls' choice, Sirius Black were the best liked, the best dressed, the best pranksters, the best looking, and, overall, the best at everything they even attempted. By their fourth year, the boys had a reputation for themselves.
James Potter's relationship, or better, lack of relationship with Lily Evans, another of the seven, was well known through the school and James had been dubbed "off limits" and "hopeless".
Peter Pettigrew is a different kind of handsome than the other boys and, although he was not the smartest, he was known through the school for his amazing ability to listen and be trusted with anything.
Remus Lupin is very sickly, but very smart, and was depended by a great majority of Hogwarts for tutoring, without which, the chances of them even getting an A seemed excruciatingly slim.
And, the best for last, Sirius Black. Now, unlike the other boys, Sirius's reputation is definitely not as truthful as it could have been. At age fourteen, Sirius was dubbed a "player" who had gone out with many girls and was an amazing kisser. This, Sirius Black, found hilarious, seeing as he's probably only been on a few dates, has never even kissed a girl, and is secretly in love with Bianca Oran, also among the seven.
The other three of the seven are Lily Evans, Bianca Oran, and Marissa Kitt. These three girls are known for a variety of things.
Lily Evans is known for her notorious hate for James Potter, and her impeccable grades and record. Lily has never gotten anything below and O, has never earned herself detention or any form of reprimand, and she has never given into Potter, of which she is most proud of herself for.
Marissa Kitt is mostly known for her large amounts of money and her frivolous spending of it. She is also the one-year girlfriend of Peter Pettigrew, of which most people are still shocked about. Marissa is also easily spotted at any place in Hogwarts due to her almost blinding white-blonde hair.
Finally, Bianca Oran is probably one of the most talked about girl in Hogwarts. Bianca's gold-brown hair and pale face cause her to somewhat blend in, that is, on the days she is NOT wearing anything neon, which never happens, excluding laundry day. So, you can obviously see, Bianca does not have a reputation, she has many, most of which are completely and one hundred percent untrue. Bianca is mostly said to be by her friends: athletic, loyal, a "wee bit" aggressive, and not afraid of anything. And she believed this to all be true too. That is, until The Day.
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
It's hard to believe
You make it easy...
The Day started out like any other. The boys beat each other out of their beds while the girls smashed each other's heads with pillows. Somehow, they always ended up leaving for breakfast at the same time as the other. Thus, they always walked to breakfast together.
Marissa and Peter would always go off into their own little world. Meanwhile, Remus and Lily would be in some intellectual conversation with James hovering over them, adding witty comments in his attempts to woo Lily. But, behind them all, was Bianca and Sirius, as they did every day, talking about some of the most random things you could think of. Today, the topic was that of, what Sirius called, "Muggle Crap". That, my dear readers, is a direct quote from him the day of his first Muggle Studies lesson.
"Honestly, though, is it so difficult for muggles to communicate by letter? Why do you need a fellyfone? And I don't even want to try to understand the fisher's net you guys use? Why do you muggles make everything so difficult?" questioned Sirius Black.
"Well," replied Bianca, "First, muggles are lazy and want things to be done instantaneously, thus us not using letters. Second, it's a telephone. I don't understand how you magic folk can't pronounce it. Third," she continued, "it's the internet and it's too early to explain that right now. And, finally, they don't have magic, therefore, they find alternate methods to do things we do."
"Like what?" asked Sirius.
Bianca's face turned dead serious. "Okay, you know how when we want something from another place and don't want to get up, we can summon the object and it comes straight to us?"
Sirius nodded his head quickly.
Bianca brought her voice into a low whisper. "They have to actually get up," she said as if it was a horror movie.
Sirius, to put nicely, was deathly shocked. "Get up?" he said, double-checking. She nodded. He then broke into a rant of how much he pitied muggles now.
Bianca rolled her eyes and started to laugh at his rant. Sirius's rant smoothly switched to him laughing as well. Soon, both were laughing so hard they could hardly contain themselves.
We speak in silence
Words can't break
It feels like we are
Falling awake
In a place and a time
Of our own
Out of the corner of Sirius's eye, he caught her's. It was an odd sort of thing that can't easily be explained. It was as if that one look had said it all, and more. It said, "I'm always here" "Talk to me" "Let me love you", and so much more. All in a single glance.
"Oi! Padfoot!" yelled James as he came back to join them upon giving up on being "intellectual". "Padfoot, man, what's been up lately?"
Reluctantly, Sirius turned away and spoke to James. "Mate, nothing much. You?" He then commenced mouthing to James furiously, "GO AWAY." James, upon figuring out what was going on, came up with an excuse.
"Sorry. I have to go piss. Talk to you guys later," he said, scampering away. Sirius turned back to Bianca.
"How pleasant," she said regarding James's comment.
Sirius chuckled and smiled at her. "Hey," he said, "are you really hungry?"
"Not really," she said.
Sirius smiled wider. "Me neither," he said. He grabbed her hand in his, a small shock went up both of their arms when this occurred, and whispered, "C'mon" as he pulled her out of the castle.
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
It's hard to believe
"Where are we going?" asked Bianca.
Sirius, if possible, grinned wider. "You'll see."
He ended up taking her to the willow where, beneath James's declaration of love for Lily, was a heart he had drawn reading:
Sirius
Bianca
Forever
A single, very happy tear rolled down Bianca's face. "I know its sorta lame," said Sirius, "but hey, I was only eleven."
Bianca looked at him confused. "You liked me first year?" she asked.
"Oh, yeah, I had it bad big time. I was just better at hiding my feeling towards you than Prongsy did for Lily, is all," he said.
Without another word, Bianca delved her face into Sirius's chest and wrapped her arms around his waist. She just stayed there for a few minutes. Sirius wrapped his arms around her and pulled her a little closer. Bianca tilted her head up and looked at Sirius in the eyes. "Is this for real?" she asked.
Sirius nodded. "Yeah, it is."
They kept looking at each other. Sirius tilted his head down and brushed his lips across hers.
It felt like the world
Fell from my feet
Gave up on myself
You didn't give up on me
Let myself go
You were still there
Like coming home
Coming up for air
"Will you go out with me?" he asked with all the Gryffindor in him he could muster.
She smiled. "How do you know I was worth all those years of waiting?"
He then grinned knowingly. "I just do. Love doesn't need an explanation."
"Yes," said Bianca, kissing him again.
"Finally..." whispered Sirius before the two got so lost in each other, their friends didn't see them the rest of the day.
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
It's hard to believe
You make it easy
Everything was perfect, for the time being.
