The first time Sirius Black and Annabelle Selwyn met was at the Ministry's Christmas Dinner Party, both of the families were invited because they are the Sacred Twenty Eight (Britain's oldest purest wizarding families) as honored guests of the Ministry. The seven-year-old Annabelle was wearing her new pink dress chewing on "Drooble's Best Blowing Gum" while sitting on the couch closest to the Christmas tree like a true lady. With her flame-like red hair and dark blue eyes, she looks like a doll. On the other side of the hall, Sirius was busy running through the crowd, avoiding his younger brother Regulus.

Then, across the hall, Sirius saw Annabelle next to the Christmas tree. A seven-year-old boy's curiosity suddenly bursts, it is not in Sirius' philosophy that he leaves a pretty little girl alone. He pretended to be casually checking out the Christmas tree, and sits next to Annabelle. Sirius' plan worked, Annabelle turned to him to see who just sat next to her.

"Hi" Sirius controlled his excitement said.

"Hi" Annabelle smiled while still chewing on the blowing gum, and turned to the other direction to see her parents talking with the Head of the Department of Law Enforcement, they seem to get along quite well.

Seeing that Annabelle doesn't intend to talk anymore, Sirius quickly introduced himself, "I'm Sirius Black."

"What?" too concentrated on her parents, Annabelle didn't hear clearly.

"Sirius Black" Sirius repeated himself.

"Oh, Annabelle Selwyn." Annabelle turned to Sirius curiously, "I heard that the Blacks are all Slytherin, is that right?"

Sirius frowned, "yeah, but I'm not."

"How do you know?" Annabelle questioned, "I mean we haven't got sorted yet." She saw Sirius' unhappiness and quickly added.

"Well, either way, I'm determined to go to Gryffindor!" Sirius raised his chin full of pride.

"Really? I heard Hogwarts' principalDumbledore is from Gryffindor, he is a great wizard," said Annabelle.

"Do you want to go to Gryffindor?" Sirius sat closer to Annabelle, facing directly to her.

"I don't know," Annabelle seems a bit lost, "My mom is from Ravenclaw, dad is fro Slytherin, both my grandparents are from Slytherin too, it just changed at my mom's."

"It's okay, every family will have someone different right?' Sirius comforted her, "like me! I will be the first Gryffindor in the Black family!"

"Sirius!" Regulus stumbled across the hall. "I just... couldn't find you..." he cried out loud.

"What are you doing?" Sirius felt annoyed, he thought he got rid of his brother.

Regulus looked at Sirius like a lost puppy, he looks like he is about to cry any second. Annabelle took out a pink blowing gum, and gave it to Regulus, "hey, do you want to know how to blow bubbles? I'll teach you!" Regulus nodded, and took the gum from Annabelle.

The first meeting of Sirius and Annabelle ended with Sirius being completely left alone.

-Three Years Later-

The second time they met was on the Lestrange wedding. Annabelle boringly lays her chin on her hand watching her brother Alex chasing peacocks around the venue. She sighed and looked at her flat stomach. Her mother told her that a lady cannot eat too much in public, so she only ate a small piece of steak.

"Hey!"Sirius appeared behind her and padded her shoulder.

"Hey!" Annabelle was surprised, "Sirius! What are you doing here?"

"The Lestrange is one of our relatives, what about you?" Sirius asked.

"Partners in business," Annabelle recalled a phrase her parents mentioned, even though she has no idea what that means.

"Oh," Sirius pretends like he knows the meaning of the phrase too and nodded, "you wanna go somewhere fun?" He jumped off the seat and gave his hand to Annabelle.

"Sure." Annabelle agreed but hesitated to take Sirius' hand.

"Come on," Sirius reached his hand out again.

"Okay." Annabelle held hands with Sirius, they are friends.

"Right here!" Sirius showed Annabelle the kitchen, there are five house-elves working.

"The kitchen!" Annabelle yelled, "I didn't eat anything before!"

"Me too," Sirius looked at her, quite satisfied with his discovery.

Then before they know it, they started eating everything, and after a while, Annabelle abandoned the forks and knives and started using her hands to eat the cakes.

The second meeting of Sirius and Annabelle ended with both of their parents' anger when they realized that their children have ruined the Lestrange kitchen.
