"Lydia Abyss!" James Potter exclaimed,"You like Lydia Abyss!"

Sirius Black nodded, a smirk on his face,"Why are you so amazed? She's gorgeous."

"Yeah but she's just so...not your type," James replied.

Sirius made a face,"Says who? I say she's my type."

Just then, the bell rang. The two Hogwarts students quickly gathered their stuff and walked out of potions laughing at the fact that their teacher had messed up his own potion.

As they walked down the corridor to Transfiguration, Lydia Abyss rounded the corner.

Sirius froze, not knowing what to do next. James pushed him ahead,"Just go talk to her. I'm sure she won't mind!"

Sirius shook his head wildly,"I can't...I'll say something stupid...besides...It hink you're right...she's not really my type anyway."

Just as Sirius said his last words, he bumped into Lydia. She smiled at him and he just stood there wide-eyed and frozen. She looked at her three friends and they both giggled as Sirius, followed by James, stumbled off. Both boys looked back at her.

"Well isn't she something?" James said, laughing.

Sirius tried to act nonchalant, but failed in doing so,"She's amazing...and I acted so stupid! How could I have done that! I warned you, James!"

James laughed again,"I know, I know, but I still think you should ask her to Hogsmeade or something."

Sirius shook his head,"I don't think I'll be talking to her in a while."

James and Sirius burst out laughing as the walked into Transfiguration class. Everyone was staring at them, including Professor McGonagall.

"I expect you boys have a good excuse for being late to class," she said harshly.

James looked to Sirius as he replied,"Yes, ma'am...um...well...James-"

James cut him off,"-dropped my books. Yes I dropped my books and we had to pick them up but by the time we were done, the bell had rung. We're very sorry..."

Minerva frowned and motioned for the two boys to sit down. They sat down quietly and opened their books.

The whole time, Sirius couldn't stop thinking of her. Her beautiful smile, he dark golden hair, and, oh, he eyes. Her eyes were what he loved about her most. Sirius felt her could just drift away in those greyish-brown eyes. He was crazy about her and he couldn't deny it.

Before her knew it, the last bell had rang and everyone was getting up. James urged him to come on. It was going to be dinner time in a few hours and they had homework to do. And besides, it had been rumored Lydia Abyss wanted to sit with Sirius Black.
