Ok, here's the thing. I, Sirius Black, was stuck in detention ONCE AGAIN for putting dungbombs in Snivellus' robe pockets. Yup, and Professor Poo caught me. He always knows its me even though I never let anything slip. So once again, I am serving detention with James, my good ol' partner in crime, in Poo's dungeon, scrubbing the floors to make it sparkly – the muggle way. GRR! I thought it was just horrible and disgusting, even though James was there to lighten up the dirty mood. That was until one moment….
The 'classroom' door was thrown open by the one and only, Professor Poo. He strode into the room with an air of hatred and loathing towards us. But for some reason, it didn't seem as strong as it usually is. He glared at me and sneered. I glared back and was about to turn my head when I saw someone following him.
She was a medium height girl, maybe about 5'5". She strode into the room like she owned the place, in a good way. She walked with confidence and followed the god-forsaken teacher to the front of the classroom where a door was located and led to his office. I didn't get a good, clear look of her because of the dim lighting in the dungeon and only the moon and stars shining through the tiny window.
She had long dark hair for sure. It went down to about mid-back in uneven layers. She had a lithe figure, not to skinny and not oversized. She looked curvy from the clothes she wore. Dark pants, dark long sleeved shirt that had billowing sleeves that went down to her mid-thighs even though her hands should be a bit shorter.
When she glanced at me, I looked away. I now curse myself because I didn't get a good look at her face. She walked on, following Poo into his office.
A few minutes later, Poo's ugly and greasy head stuck out from his office door and addressed us, "Black, Potter, you are dismissed." He waved his hand and all of our cleaning supplies disappeared. "Go." He plainly stated and slammed the door. I looked at James and he shrugged. We headed back to the Gryffindor common room together, trying not to limp because of our sore knees and other aching parts.
But my mind kept wandering back to who the mysterious girl was. Who was she?
I walked into the Great Hall the next morning. I was SO tired! I yawned and I couldn't even bother with putting my hand over my mouth. My shoulders and arms were sore and it was almost impossible for me to move, even if I wanted to.
I headed over to my friends at the Gryffindor table. Lily, James, and Remus were already seated and eating slowly. James was sitting across from Lily. Sure he was eating, but everyone could see that he wasn't really eating. His mind wasn't on his food, it was on the pretty redhead that sat across from him.
Yes, she is THE Lily Evans. The girl that stole James Potter's heart and threw it right back at him but he wouldn't accept. James had been head over heels for her since the first time he laid eyes on her, which was six years ago. This was our sixth year at Hogwarts. Not much has changed.
I trudged over to the table where they sat and plopped myself next to James. I strained my arm, trying to grab a piece of toast when it jus gave out and my head banged on the table. Damn, that hurt.
James helped me up and got me my toast. I took and bite and sipped some juice to gulp it down. My friends stared. "What?" I asked.
Remus was the first to speak. He was the typical gentlemen and a genius one at that. He was currently fancying this blonde girl from Ravenclaw. Her name was Hailey Smith. Pretty girl. I don't really know her well since we haven't been properly introduced nor do I have any classes with her. He hasn't had the guts to ask her out yet but he says that he's working on it. "Sirius, what happened to you?" he asked.
"What?" I asked.
"You're fumbling and unfocused, Sirius." Lily, always the blunt one.
I stared. "Detention. Poo. Clean floor." Those were the only words I muttered and they all seemed to get the message. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw James nod his head to them and start telling them how horrible it was. He also told them about the part where Poo went to his office with a girl and then quickly dismissed them.
It seemed as if the moment James finished his story, the Great Hall's doors were once again, thrown open. Only this time, it wasn't Poo. It was Luscious Malfoy, my soon to be brother-in-law, my dear sisters, Narcissa and Bellatrix (better known as Trixie or Bella) Black. Where was Rudolphus? He is Trixie's fiancé. I glanced over to the Slytherin table and he was already seated with his friend, Flint.
I glanced back at the approaching Slytherins that were heading over to Rudolphus and I noticed a girl that I've never seen before. Same long dark hair, now that I see is black with shades of brown and red that was mixed really well. You could tell that it was completely natural. She had fair and unblemished skin. She actually looked over at me and smiled. Could she have recognized me from last night? Luscious and my sisters must've noticed her look for they looked over too and waved at me. I smiled at them, I didn't' know why. My day suddenly seemed brighter than I thought it would ever be.
But her eyes… they were her most striking features. Her eyes were strong, showed her soul as well as her mask to the world. It was almost if I could see both if I really tried but I needed to focus. They were a warm glimmering golden brown color – melted chocolate.
I stared, she was beautiful. I've never melt anyone like her or even came close. I felt as if I wanted to get to know her more. She is different… from all the other girls I've ever went out with. I couldn't place it though. It felt like that I would never have her nor ever be good enough to deserve her. What is this feeling… longing?
James nudged me in the side and nodded his head towards her. Clearly he recognized her too. I nodded at him and said in a low tone, "I know." His eyes gleamed mischievously at me and grinned widely, "I saw you staring at her. What? Fallen for a Slytherin?" I looked down. Slytherin… That word ran back and forth in my head over and over again. She is a Slytherin. How can this be… Even though I have a few friends in there, all Slytherins are associated with negative traits. And yet… she is there. I decided then that I wouldn't let our Houses get in the way. I will get to know her and talk to her.
