Disclaimer: The fantastic characters that you are about to read about in my story solely belong to the magnificent and almighty J.K. Rowling. I just like to take the characters and twist them to my wills. Oh, if I owned them the things I would do (smirks)! The only thing of value I do own is a Pentium one laptop which the monitor doesn't even work so I have to hook it up to another one. The one I hook it up to turns blue at random and I have to beat it with my fist to turn it back to normal... Pathetic, huh? Well now enjoy the story and on with the show!

Raises Curtain

Chapter One: To Watch Me Disappear

"I'm sorry but I'm breaking up with you," Mark Lewis said quietly. It was very late and we were alone in the Gryffindor common room sitting on the couch. He had asked me earlier to meet him here so we could talk. Now, I wish I hadn't agreed.

"You what?" I said standing up and looking at him in disbelief. He stood up and looked at me sadly before he continued.

"I'm sorry but this is it," he said in a shadow of a whisper but I still heard his words which felt like knives being stabbed through my heart.

"What? No! Please don't do this Mark! I love you! We can just go back to bed and wake up tomorrow and pretend this never happened. Please? Please don't do this to us, to me! We've been together since 5th year! You can't leave me! Please don't leave me!" I pleaded as a single tear streamed down my cheek, insuring more to flow, I grabbed his hand trying to assure him.

"I can't. I would be hurting you even more if I stayed with you and pretended to still love you," he said as he pulled his hand away. "I have to tell you the truth, LeAnne. I've fallen in love with someone else. She lives in Hogsmeade. Her name is Kylie...Oh, please don't cry." He tried to rest his hand on my shoulder but I stepped back from him.

"How could you? How could you do this to me? You aren't really in love with me, you break up with me and tell me you're in love with some girl then expect me not to cry! How could you?" I said my voice going from a whisper to a yell.

"Keep your voice down! You'll wake everyone up!" he said in a hushed whisper.

"I don't care! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I HATE YOU!" I screamed slapping him across the face each time I screamed the word 'you'. I took another step back from him as tears began to form in his eyes.

"You don't mean that," he said. I shook my head and noticed out of the corner of my eye that people were watching at the bottom of the dormitory stairs but I didn't care.

"Oh yes I do! I hate you, you bastard! I can't believe you would think that I wouldn't hate you when you told me you were in love with another woman!" I screamed as I tried to stop my tears.

"Fine then. If this is how you want it to be then have it your way Kelly," he said angrily. That was the first time since the day I met him he had used my first name. Just hearing the coldness in his voice when he said my name broke my heart all over again.

I turned and ran out of the common room as fast as my legs could carry me, my long blonde hair flowing out behind me. I didn't care if I was caught, I didn't care what would happen to me even if I were. I had to get as far away from him as I could. I ran all the way out of the school and to the shore of the lake where I collapsed on a rock on the water's edge. I broke down into sobs and tried to cry my heart out so I could get rid of the throbbing pain in my chest.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and I quickly turned around to come face to face with Sirius Black. "What do you want, Black?" I asked viciously.

"I wanted to see if you're ok," he said quietly, still holding onto my shoulder. I jerked it off and stood up. I took a few steps away from him an turned my back to him.

"I don't need your sympathy, thank you very much," I said coldly as I wiped the tears away from my eyes. I had never really warmed up to Sirius Black as I had the rest of his friends. He always seemed to bother me even more than Peter Pettigrew. He was always running around with a new girl every week and was way too full of himself. Why couldn't he be more like Remus or James even?

"What is your problem with me?" he asked exasperated. I sighed and turned around to face him. I walked over to him and only left about 3 inches of space between our faces. I glared into his dark chocolate eyes as he bore into my emerald orbs. But suddenly my breath was caught in my throat as the crescent moon's light spilled across his face. I hated to admit it but he looked rather handsome and I felt myself weakening under his gaze.

"Well?" he asked, waving his hand in my face. I cleared my throat and put the angry look back on my face.

"My problem with you is all you ever do is degrade women then after you're done you throw them to the curb. You're also an arrogant prat who thinks he's so cool. You think you can get any girl in school, including me, but I have a news flash for you Sirius Black. There's at least one girl you can't and that's me. If you don't want me to have a problem with you then either stop being so self centered or get out of my way. I choose the later." I shoved past him and made my way up to the castle, leaving him...
