A/N: Hello again everyone!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything!

"Well, well, well what do we have here?" said what sounded like a cocky boy.
I looked up to find Lily with three other boys. Two had black hair and one had sandy brown hair.
One of the black haired boys came and sat next to me without even considering that Severus was sitting in front of me or even sitting in here at all. I didn't feel comfortable with him there so when he tried to put his arm around me I decided to sit next to Severus who had put his book down and seemed to be staring daggers at the lot. I don't know what came over me but the next thing I know I had my hand round Severus'. I had the sinking feeling the group my sister was friends with is not at all nice to Severus.
Some friend she turned out to be.
"Hey now don't be like that," the boy who tried to sit next to me said with what he thought was both a sexy and attractive grin.
I cringed at the way he said it and looked at me. I scooted closer to Severus and received a squeeze from Severus and knew that my being close to him is not at all a bother to him. At least that's I think he is trying to tell me. I looked up at Severus only to see him giving me a small smile of encouragement that I was doing the right thing by not letting someone take me over.
"Be like what? I don't know you and you clearly don't have manners because you can't just sit wherever you want," I said trying very hard not to physically injure him.
While Lily was away for her first year my dad decided that I needed to take some self-defense classes after we nearly got robbed after coming back from nana's. I had agreed since other than the muggle school I attended nothing else was happening so I thought it would be a fun and productive way for me to spend my spare time, plus Lily didn't know and mom and dad never told said we had to. I was glad when they said that this would be kept between us since Lily has had the title of favorite since we discovered her magic (Petunia was not neglected she was just too jealous to see that she too could have accomplished something if she had set her mind to it).
I thought I would never have to use it but now I see that I was wrong.
"Well, we'll need to remedy that no won't we," he said in what he still thought was a sexy or alluring voice.
He tried to sit next to me again but this time it was Severus that made it clear that I wanted nothing to do with getting to know him (Sirius).
"I do not believe that will be necessary Black," Severus said wrapping his arm around me.
I spared a subtle look at Lily and saw that she was as shock as the rest of them.
The Black boy looked slightly bewildered. Like Severus was not good enough to talk to him in such a manner, I tried not to scoff at the thought.
I felt Severus' arm tighten around me and I could have sworn that he had at Lily's shocked face but I shrugged it off…with tears building up. I hoped no one noticed and thankfully the undergoing argument was distraction enough.
"Is that right Snivellus then why don't you let me prove that I am a better choice when the year starts," Black said with a smug grin.
I looked at Severus and did something rash and what would count as stupid especially when your crush is in love with your sister. I kissed his cheek.
I know I know not a real kiss but to me it was as real as it was going to get. His arm only tightened at that. Whether it was because he wanted or part of his act I didn't know. All I knew was that his arm was around me, holding me.
"Don't call him Snivellus. He has a name like you seem to so use it or leave him alone. Because to be honest you are too cocky for me to even consider liking," I said once I was sure that my voice wouldn't quiver with emotion.
Everyone looked at me as if I had grown another head I looked at Lily to back me up but she just stood there looking around pretending that she didn't know me. This time the tears came with a vengeance. Was she too good for me to be called her sister here?
The sandy haired boy looked between Lily and me and with a slight bow he said, "Please forgive my idiotic and completely manner less friends or soon to be ex- friends my name is Remus, the player gapping at you is named Sirius, and this is James."
He seemed kind but the sting of my sister not coming to my aid was still there and hurting. He gave me a kind smile and motioned for the empty seat next to me, silently asking if he can sit down. I looked at Severus and at his rather reluctant nod I nodded at Remus. He nodded his thanks at sat next to me.
I looked at Lily and saw that she was trying to stay out of the situation. I looked at her sadly and said, "If you don't want to be here to help/guide your sister and just ignore the drama that comes with her then go. This proves to me that you care more for yourself than the family that loves you."
I didn't look at her. I knew she would leave and hoped she would she had hurt me when she avoided me. Everyone (except Severus) was shocked to hear that I was her sister. The tears fell knowing that she probably hadn't said anything about me coming this year. Well, all I'll have to do is stay out of her way and make myself as invisible as I can. If she doesn't want to help me through this then I'll just do what the other only children that come here do, figure it out myself.
Severus looked at me in shock and my prediction is that he'll follower out. To my surprise he stayed and pulled me closer to him. Sirius and James on the other hand looked at me with hate in their eyes. Oh perfect she has bodyguards to keep her safe and attack. They left with her, James pulling her hand to him. Perfect now he's a freaking lovesick puppy for her just like Severus is.
I looked at Severus and said, "You can go after her if you want to you know."
The look on his face was priceless and his tight hold on me faltered. And without a second look to me he stood up and left as I had predicted. I scooted over to the window and pulled my legs to my chest. I didn't want to cry but this time I couldn't help it the tears came and wouldn't stop next thing I know I'm sobbing uncontrollably. I felt someone's arms around me and I unconsciously leaned into the warm touch.
"Will you be alright?" Remus asked quietly from the seat in front of me.
I gave him a small sad grin but nodded.
"You love him don't you," he said. It was a statement not a question.
A/N: Not much of a cliffy but just enough to let you know that there is more heading your way :)
Don't forget to review they are the best part of my day :)
