You Got Me
Colbie Caillat
Mark my words, one of these days Sirius Black is going to fall in love and Karma is going to hurt him. I definitely do not want to be the cause of pain for him, so I decided to tell Lily that I couldn't do it. I love the happiness that is always in his eyes and it would kill me to see it gone.
When I finally got Lily alone I told her, she seemed a little bit disappointed, but she understood.
That night I couldn't sleep, I could've sworn I heard a werewolf howl. I passed it off as my fears making me delusional and soon enough drifted off to sleep, but nightmares of being a werewolf plagued me that night.
"Rise and shine!" I heard Lily yell, how that girl can always wake up so early and be so happy is beyond me. I am usually a happy person, but I am not a morning person!
She did my hair and makeup which didn't take as long this time and then had me wear black skinny jeans and a bright, blue loose shirt, with a black, leather jacket. I couldn't help but be excited, I looked so cute in the outfit Lily picked out. Though I had to continuously push the thought away that maybe Sirius would notice me now.
As we made our way down the stairs I saw Sirius stumble in with blood coming from his side. Lily raced up the boy's staircase and I walked up to Sirius. He looked up at me with the biggest puppy dog eyes and I couldn't help but take pity.
"Come on." I whispered throwing one of his arms around my shoulder and practically carried him to Hogsmead. Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to be a healer and I hate thinking too much of myself, but I know that I am really good. For the first time I was happy that I knew I was good, I wouldn't trust myself with Sirius otherwise.
Once I had healed him, I brought Sirius to the Hog's Head and sat with him as he drank a butterbeer, I wanted to ask what happened, but I knew he would not tell me. He didn't seem to mind all the damage that was done to him and I was terrified to know what happened, my thoughts couldn't help but drift to the night before when I thought I'd heard a werewolf. I knew that he wasn't about to turn into a werewolf, so I tried to shake the idea from my mind.
"Thanks." He said in a quiet voice, not looking up.
I gave him a soft smile, "I wasn't going to let you lay there bleeding," I put my hand on top of his which caused him to look up, "don't be embarrassed." I don't know why I said that, I've never had the courage to say something like that, but I wanted him to know that he could trust me.
"You don't judge do you?" He asked smiling at me.
"Why would I judge?" I asked confused, he was only hurt. Why would someone judge about that?
"You haven't even asked me what happened, you just go and help me. How can you do that?" he was looking at me in the eyes, I think in a way we were both lost.
We sat there for a while staring at each other before a few girls from his fan club burst in. In the beginning we found it weird that he had a fan club, but now it's just normal, "Merlin!" she squealed, "I did not know that you would be here!" she sat next to him pushing him to move over and grimace in pain, I knew that she was trying to break us apart. The fan club hated when other girls talked to Sirius, which forced them to really hate me. It made me sad that they judged me so quickly, I really wanted to be friends with them in the beginning.
"Hey, Polly!" I couldn't help but hope that she was here to be nice, "How are you, I haven't really seen you around lately, can you believe we are in our seventh year!"
She glared at me, "Excuse me, Polly." Sirius said ignoring her glaring, "I'm on a date with Hayley, could you go away?"
She glared at me, but went away anyway. I was a little shocked at what Sirius said, "She could've stayed here." Was all I could say.
"Hayley, why are you nice to her? She's so mean to you?" he tried to catch my eyes but I avoided looking at him.
"What if one day she changes her mind?"
"Think it over." Sirius said quietly as he got up and walked out of the pub, I sat there muling it over before I stood up and walked out the door.
