This is for Radient Shadow's OC Challenge/Comp. I got Sirius that I had to make a OC for. The song i got was One of the Boys by Katy Perry.

*I have edited this chapter*

A year later Sorrel is reading a book when Regulus walks up to her.

"Sorrel, I bet that my brother was toying with your emotions," Regulus said, calmly.

"So, do I look like I care," she said, not looking up from her book. "Will, he just shut up already!" she thought.

"No, but you look so lonely, wouldn't you want to be with me, instead," he said.

"Not on my life Rab, not on my life," she finished going to the girl's dormitory to take a nap. "What is with this guy?" she thinks annoyed.

That Christmas Sorrel is in the Potter's. Sorrel rocks uncomfortably back and forth in her lavish chair. She was not used to staying with Lily or James.

"Thank you Lily and James for inviting me for Christmas," Sorrel said, looking at her hands, nervously.

"Well, anytime," said Lily cheerfully, patting the younger girl on the back. "She is so adorable," she thinks.

Sorrel looks up tentatively to see Lily's kind face and then her gaze is averted to Sirius's sprawled out body on the floor. Sorrel, since last year, her crush on Sirius had diminished a bit, but she hadn't seen him in a year and seeing him now, in that particular position made her blush a brilliant shade of pink.

Sirius says laughing, "What's wrong with you Sass?"

Then an awkward silence takes over them, in the process Sirius sits up, as to not make Sorrel more uncomfortable. He looks at her, and warily moves closer to her.

"Are you okay Sass?" he asks. "If someone hurt you, I will get them!" "What is with her anyway?" he thinks confused.

Sorrel then blurts out, "Your brother was flirting with me."

Sirius looks at her, his face showing almost no emotion. Then a second later he leaves the room, trying not to show any of his emotions.

In the kitchen James is trying to calm down Sirius.

"How could he do that, to my girl," Sirius yells, angrily. "I love her despite the age. Why did he do that?"

"Did, I say something wrong," asked Sorrel, looking at Lily, with big eyes.

"Well I don't think Sirius was ready to hear that, he thinks of you as one of the Marauders or more like a younger sister," Lily said, smiling. "Actually he likes you a lot," she thinks.

At that moment Sorrel's heart breaks in two. All the things she desired were now flooded by the feeling of heartbreak. She stands up and walks outside.

"Why me," she whispers aloud to herself.

Then Lily says, "Though I think Sirius is now thinking about you in a different way." "Of course, he is now that he has competition."

Sorrel sits down and thinks about all those years she spent with the Marauders. She remembered when she found out Remus was a werewolf and how she tried to help protect him but her fear of dogs made her unable for the most part to help so she would sit by where Remus was chained and say soothing words to him. She was a person who was not afraid to tell what was on her mind, and the Marauders respected and liked her for that, now she felt lost and confused.

Sorrel sighs knowing or at least wishing that her crush on Sirius was nonexistent. While she is thinking her teeth start to chatter from the cold and her hands start to feel numb. As she delves more into her thoughts she doesn't recognize that someone sat beside her. Then she looks toward the occupant of space beside her, her expression hard when she sees its Sirius.

"Why are you out here," asked Sorrel.

"Well, a lady shouldn't be outside in this weather alone, also I thought it would be nice to talk to you," said Sirius.

"About what," she said harshly, her breath coming out like a puffy cloud.

"Well, I wanted to sit next to you and tell you things you might have not known before," he said, trying not to rub his hands together and have his teeth chatter.

"Like what," she asks, trying not to smile about Sirius's bravado.

"Like what Regulus said about me and well, I wished you hadn't heard that from him," said Sirius.

"So, you wanted me to hear it from you, nice I got it," she said, sarcastically, her eyes cold.

Then giving in to his bravado, Sirius's teeth start to chatter and he starts to rub his hands together. Sorrel laughs and looks at him.

"Is poor little Sirius cold," she said, talking like a baby.

"Ha, I'm not cold," he said, looking at her now.

"Oh, you know that you shouldn't go outside in this weather without a coat, you'll freeze," she commented, smiling at him.

He laughs and looks at her, "I know that."

Sorrel smiles and gives him her shawl.

"Oh, no I shall not take away this, from this lovely lady," said Sirius, his bravado becoming more evident.

"Then you did this on purpose," she said. "Didn't bring your coat so I can 'share' with you, then you deny the offer."

Sirius smiles, perhaps to say yes to her, without really saying it. Sorrel rolls her eyes and walks back inside. Sorrel leaves the house without saying another word to them. Sirius runs behind her and sees her go into the cold air and then disappears, just like that.

Sirius goes back into the house where Lily is looking at Sirius.

"So how did it go," she asked, wondering why the younger girl left, without saying anything.

"Do you think that it went well Lily," Sirius said, after being pushed into a seat by James.

"Of course, I don't I want to know what went wrong," she said, calmly.

"Well it started out wrong and it ended wrong, towards the end I wanted to pick her up and hug her, then tell her that I love her and would never do something as horrid as my brother told her," said Sirius, still not able to understand what he did wrong.

Lily groans and puts her hands up in the air. "You know nothing about people."

"Well I can use some help," he said, looking at Lily.

Lily goes over to James and refuses to look at him.

"Well give me a hint, a tiny one at least," he begged her.

"Well let's see remember what she likes and what she is afraid of," commented Lily, no longer giving him hints.

Sirius sits on the stairs and starts to think what she liked and what she was afraid of.

Meanwhile Sorrel is sitting next to her brother crying. Severus just sits there waiting for her to speak.

"Did I do something wrong for him to think me as only a little sister?" asks Sorrel, looking at her brother through tear filled eyes.

Severus shrugs, "I bet he doesn't know a pretty girl when he sees one."

Sorrel laughs and smiles at her brother, glad he was her older brother. Severus then gives back her neglected hot chocolate. Sorrel takes back the cup and sips it slowly so the taste will stay on her tongue for a while.

While sipping her hot chocolate she studies how her brother looks like. His hair very black hair clashing his light skin, she then looks at how he holds his mug very gently. She then looks down at her hot chocolate and sees her reflection. Her hair black like her brother's is long and pulled back into a braid, which clashes with her semi-pale skin. She loved having Severus as is brother. He kept his promise of protecting her even if he was bullied and he kept his promise of not interfering with who she liked. She made that promise with him when she was only five years old and still ten years later he kept it.

Meanwhile Sirius tries to remember what the girl liked and was afraid of, though every time he tried to remember he just remembered a tough Sorrel, then a memory catches his attention. It was the time she joined the Marauders.

*flashback*

The Marauders happened to be wandering around the castle when they heard a loud scream. When they went over they saw a dog snarling at the young Sorrel, who was frozen to the spot to scared to move. They then chased the dog away and they walked her back to the Slytherin House. While they were taking her back, she talked about how she liked the flower….. how she liked the flower called lilac because it reminded her of spring.

*end of flashback*

Back at Severus's house Sorrel yawns, making Severus look at her.

"You want to stay here for the night," he asked.

Sorrel nods and goes upstairs to get changed. The next morning Sorrel walks downstairs to see the living totally transformed. She looks at the Christmas tree that is decorated very pretty and all the presents around it. Then she goes to the kitchen to see her brother donning an apron and doing something on the oven. He then turns around and smiles.

"Merry Christmas Sass," he said, as the little gingerbread people came to life from the baking sheet he was carrying.

Sorrel squeals as she is chased by the gingerbread people. Finally when she goes over to the Christmas tree again, does she have a question.

"Can I open presents now?" she asked her brother.

"Not now, you have to eat breakfast," he said, sternly.

"Okay," she said, capturing a gingerbread person and chomping its head off. When she walks in the kitchen Sorrel says solemnly, "Sev, you would make a good dad, you know that."

Severus smiles at his sister's comment. "Well I guess I would be a good dad."

"Hmm, I left my presents for you at James's and Lily's house," said Sorrel, sadly.

"You gotten presents for me," he said, surprised.

Sorrel nods, "The week before break, I went to Hogsmeade and got a present for you there then James and Lily took me to Diagon Ally so then I could get you a bigger present."

Severus laughs, "Any gift you give me is enough."

Sorrel relaxes glad that the two presents were enough for him.

"Well, also among those gifts are presents from Lily, James, Sirius, Peter, and Remus," said Severus, plainly.

"Really, that's so awesome," she said, smiling.

After breakfast they go in the living room. Severus sits down in a comfortable chair while he watches Sorrel go straight for her stocking. After taking out everything from the stocking she goes onto the presents from Severus. A good amount of the things are educational, though some are for the younger girl's enjoyment.

Then when she is about to open Lily's present a group of people come into the living room. The party is led by Sirius who goes over to the shocked Sorrel.

"I'm sorry Sorrel, I didn't do what you wanted me to do, I'm sorry that yesterday I didn't hold you tight and never let you go, and I'm sorry that I didn't do this," Sirius says, then puling her into a hug, giving her a kiss.

When they separate Sorrel's eyes are gleaming.

"Merry Christmas," he said, handing her a present.

Sorrel opens it, slowly. When it's fully opened her jaw drops at what she is holding.

"Lilacs," she whispered.

"It reminds you of spring," said Sirius, still beside her.

Sorrel nods, trying not to hug Sirius for his present. Then Lily takes her present and puts it on the table so Sorrel can open the other present. While she opens the rest of the presents Sirius stays by her side. Then sometime later Sorrel goes outside, Sirius following her sometime later.

"Why are you out here," asked Sorrel.

"Well, a lady shouldn't be outside in this weather alone, also I thought it would be nice to talk to you," said Sirius.

"About what," she said, her breath coming out like a puffy cloud.

"Well, I wanted to sit next to you and tell you things you might have not known before," he said, trying not to rub his hands together and have his teeth chatter.

"Like what," she asks, trying not to smile about Sirius's bravado.

"Like what Regulus said about me and well, I wished you hadn't heard that from him," said Sirius.

"So, you wanted me to hear it from you, nice I got it," she said, sarcastically, her eyes gleaming.

Then giving in to his bravado, Sirius's teeth start to chatter and he starts to rub his hands together. Sorrel laughs and looks at him.

"Is poor little Sirius cold," she said, talking like a baby.

"Ha, I'm not cold," he said, looking at her now.

"Oh, you know that you shouldn't go outside in this weather without a coat, you'll freeze," she commented, smiling at him.

He laughs and looks at her, "I know that."

Sorrel smiles and gives him her shawl.

"Oh, no I shall not take away this, from this lovely lady," said Sirius, his bravado becoming more evident.

"Hmm, but we can share," she said, pulling Sirius closer to her.

Sirius laughs and picks her up so she is standing up. He hugs her and then whispers to her, "I would never do anything to hurt you Sass, and I love you, always."

Sorrel smiles and stands there in the cold night. With Sirius by her she didn't care whether or not the world ended as long as Sirius and she were together, she would always be happy. Then Severus pokes his head out the door.

"Can, we open my presents now?" he asked. "I want you to be there Sass."

"Okay Sev, one minute," Sorrel says, taking her shawl back.

Both Sorrel and Sirius walk back in, their hands entwined with looks of happiness on their faces.

Sirius and Sorrel sit down while Severus opens his first present from Sorrel.

"You like it," she asks, smiling nervously.

"I don't like it, I love it, thanks Sass," Severus said, showing off his potions set to the group.

Then Severus is given his other present and Severus becomes confused. He unwraps the box and finds another box he does this three more time until he gets to the center. He opens that box and he pulls out one piece of paper it says:

Severus, you are my brother

I love you more than I love anyone else in my family and I care about you more than any of my friends.

Severus you never let me down

Sev I love you and want to tell you something:

"You fulfilled your promise," finished Sorrel.

This makes Severus look up and smile, "Thank you Sass."

Hope you all liked it. Till next time stay pretty...
