So, it's been two weeks since the day Orion, Sirius and James found out Remus' 'little' secret.
Two weeks, two hundred detentions (ALREADY!), two MILLION times have the twins bugged each other about how annoying one another are.
Finally ending with /one/ simple sentence from little Mr James Potter; "Will. You two. PLEASE. Shut. The hell. Up." Also, a few books thrown at their heads. Quite affective.
Moving on, it's another normal day for these crazy kids. Sirius and Orion were simply watching them, Remus and James were simply watching them, bemused. "Orion! Look out!" called James. Orion turned and looked at him, running backwards now. He couldn't tell what James had just said to him.
Aaaaand… Too late: as the now black haired boy ran, he tripped over someone. Some girl…
Sirius snickered at Orion. "You gotta stop tripping over girls, Orion," he grinned.
Orion jumped back to his feet. "S-so sorry," he mumbled, holding his hand out to her to help her back to her feet.
"It's okay," said the girl, taking his hand and standing up. She was about the same height as Orion and Sirius. She also had brown hair, down to her shoulder blades.
She picked her books up, looking at the four boys. "I'm Stephanie, by the way. Stephanie McFee," the girl said.
"I'm Sirius Black. The clumsy kid who just fell over you is Orion, my brother," said Sirius, smirking at his embarrased twin.
"James," said the spectacled boy, nodding slightly towards Stephanie. "And that's Remus." He pointed towards Remus.
"Nice to meet you four," smiled Stephanie. Orion nodded slightly. Unless it was obvious, poor little Orion was awful with girls (as you might have noticed in the first chapter), and having to talk directly at a female wasn't helping much.
Being subtle, he indicated that he just wanted to get into the Great Hall. Quickly.
"We'd better go. I think Orion's a bit hungry," grinned Sirius, putting Orion into a headlock and dragging, almost literally, him into the Hall.
Once they made it into the Hall, Orion wiggled away from his brother. "Orion and Stephanie, sittin' on a broom, S-N-O—OUCH! Dammit, Orion!"
"Shuddup, Sirius…" muttered Orion, scowling at him. After that, they ate in silence, since Orion glared at Sirius everytime he opened his mouth. Finally, the four made their way to Charms (with the Ravenclaws).
Sirius and James sat together, then REmus, then Orion at the end. As they waited for professor, Orion played with his wand absently. Until he noticed some one sit next to him. He turned his head to see the same brunette sitting next to him. Stephanie smiled at him, "Hi! Orion, right? Or are you Sirius?"
"Yeah… I mean, I'm Orion," he murmured, hiding his face slightly with his hair. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see James and Sirius grinning at him.
The girl tilted her head to the side. "Are you feeling all right? Your face is all red," she said, looking at his cheeks. This just made him blush harder.
He was saved as short little Professor Flitwick wobbled into the room. He let out a breath of relief silently as Stephanie turned her attention to the professor.
After what felt like forever, the Gryffindors and Ravenclaws left the room and went their separate ways.
"Hey, Ori, if you like her you should just ask her out," advised James once they were out of ear range or the Ravenclaws.
"I'm horrible with that kind of stuff though!" sighed Orion, stuffing his hands in his pockets. They had all decided before that they were skipping his class (History of Magic). No one would notice they weren't there.
They continued their conversation in the common room…
"So… does anyone have any tips on how you ask a girl out?" asked Orion, looking at his brother and friends hopefully.
Remus shook his head (/very/ useful Remy…) but Sirius and James were grinning their head off. It scared Remus and Orion slightly.
"I'm guessing you guys know what to do…?"
"Definitely!"
Much time later…
"How on earth…am I suppose to remember…ALL THAT…!" asked Orion, eyes wide.
"Okay, fine. I have a much simpler idea anyway," shrugged James. Orion twitched slightly.
"And what might your idea BE, James?"
"Sirius pretends to be you and asks McFee out for you," said James simply, throwing his feet up on the coffee table.
"You shoulda said that sooner, you git," Orion growled, his face in his hands. Although, he quite liked this idea, surprisingly. "Let's do it."
Lunch time…
Orion, Remus, and James watched, wide eyes, as Sirius walked over to the Ravenclaw table casually, finding Stephanie. "Excuse me, but do you think I could talk to you for a minute?" he asked, trying hard to act like his brother. The brunette looked up at him and nodded, "Sure, Orion." Stephanie stood up and walked out of the Great Hall with 'Orion'. They stopped right outside the doors. "What's up?" she asked. Sirius rubbed the back of his neck and said the line he and Orion agreed on a while ago.
"Well, Stephanie, I really like you… And I was wondering if you wanted to… I dunno… hang out sometime..?" asked Sirius, doing his ultimate best Orion imitation. He was quite good at it.
"Are you asking me out?" she asked after a moment. Sirius nodded slightly. She broke into a smile. "Okay!"
Sirius simply smiled as Stephanie walked back into the Hall. He followed soon after, and headed to his anxious friends.
"What'd she say? What'd she say!"
"Well…" sighed Sirius dramatically, "she said… Yes!"
"Yeah!"
"Orion… will you PLEASE stop hugging me…?"
