Introductions to a Seer

The laugh lines about her eyes smoothed as she became curious. Christine looked over at Remus, Peter and Sirius.

"Well did you say something?" She asked pointedly.

"Remember, she's smart this one." Remus whispered quickly to Sirius before he spoke.

"Well ya. We were just talking about how smart you are." Sirius said to Christine, the picture of innocence.

Christine looked over at Remus. "Is he telling the truth?" She didn't say it accusingly; more like she was tired of having people lie to her.

"Strictly speaking, yes." Remus said thinking he could out of a direct answer on technicalities. They had spoken of her intelligence among other things.

She smiled, bringing out the laugh lines around her eyes. "Thanks Remus."

"So how'd you get to be the top Ravenclaw in the year?" Sirius asked her. He walked right next to her leaving Remus and Peter to talk to each other.

"So do you think Sirius will get this girl?" Peter asked Remus.

"If he does I'd be surprised." Remus said to his short companion. "But then again every single girl in the school has had feelings for Sirius at one point or another. Even Christine must have had a crush on him at one point or another."

"So do you think Sirius will being going through his unusual routine after the Headmaster's office?"

"I doubt it Pete. Even if Christine likes him she'll shoot him down at the first sign of any broom cupboard action."

"But I thought all girls loved the broom cupboard."

"There are exceptions to the rule. Christine Charles, Lily Evans and a few others like that Athens girl from Ravenclaw or Samantha Jules from Hufflepuff. But Samantha is also a lesbian so…" Remus said speaking quite openly. Then again he could because Jules had shot down Sirius and that memory still amused all the school every time Sirius and Samantha were in the same room.

"But I went out with Samantha last year." Peter said confused.

"Pete, you're the reason she's a lesbian." Remus said shaking his head.

At the other end of the hallway Sirius was chatting Christine up in the most subtle way possible.

"So it must take a very special type of girl to get a higher grade than Lily Evans."

Christine pinked and looked away bashfully. "It's not really much. Just listening in class and taking notes. You and you're friends are better than me. I mean you hardly ever take notes."

"That's because we never take the initiative. It's good to see someone taking pride in their academic achievements." Sirius looked at her through his long bangs and smiled. "I like people who take pride in things they do."

That was it. He blew his cover. All the girls in school knew that was just a step away from the broom cupboard. Christine's pretty face twisted into a frown.

"So much for polite conversation with a bit of flattery. Black, I don't know who you think you are but I'm not shuffling into the nearest broom cupboard. Here I was thinking I had finally met a polite boy but you're the same person who pulled my braid." She ground her heel into the floor and said sternly. "I am to escort you to the Headmaster's office. That is all."

So she gathered the three up and nearly pushed them at the gargoyles. "Cinnamon Toad." She said opening the passageway before storming off to class.

But she did turn on her heel for a second to say scathingly. "I can't believe your friends Remus."

After she left Remus looked over at Sirius who shrugged. Remus glared.

"You realize you brought this upon yourself." Remus said climbing the staircase.

"I thought she overreacted." Peter said supporting Sirius.

"She does that sometimes." Remus said knocking on the Headmaster's door.

OoOoOoOoOoO

Yes, Christine overreacts. It's kind of an opposite to her daughter's passiveness. But her personality will be influenced by the coming events.
