Hello my lovelies. Well, hope you enjoy this next chapter. And yay for Hermione09Weasley for being my first reviewer!!! You get a cookie!!

Hermione09Weasley-Thanks for reading my story hun. I know Sirius is such a typical guy lol. I hope you like this chappie too!!

It had been three weeks since that awkward incident with Sirius, and things hadn't really improved. Well, he was sure not to call me fat, or comment on my 'assets'. However, today was the big Hogsmeade trip, and I was nervous as hell. Remus Lupin was practically going to be my date. Could it get more embarrassing than that?

Lily had found herself a little date with Amos Diggory. I had to almost wonder how James was taking this news. His 'love' going on a date with someone else.

So this left Remus and me to be alone for the whole day. Currently, I looked the way I was feeling. My hair had betrayed me today and was flying all over the place. Which was very strange considering it always looked really nice. Damn hair. I had been begging Cassie to help me out with it the whole day, but she was busy with her own makeup problems. I decided to go ask one of the girls in my own year, since Lily wasn't around. No doubt, she wanted to be as punctual as she could for her lovely date.

After about an hour of primping and strange bottles of potion (that incidentally made my hair look better than usual) I was ready to go. Cassie and I walked down together, but her date was already in the Great Hall, and mine…well I didn't really have a date did I? Remus and I were just friends.

Before entering the Common Room I took a deep breath and flattened down my shorts.. Since we were allowed to wear muggle clothing, I had decided to take full advantage of that. I was wearing yellow shorts that started high on my waist, and reached about mid thigh. My shirt was a white t-shirt that strangely accented my curves. I had to admit, I looked good.

I came down the stairs and saw all the marauders lazily lying down on the couch. Except Crescent; who knew where the little bitch was. They still hadn't noticed me, so I decided to clear my throat to get their attention. That didn't work either, so coughed rather loudly. They all turned to look at me. Maybe that wasn't such a good idea. I hated when people looked at every inch of me. Felt like they were judging me. Sirius was the first to speak.

"Finally Douglas. It took you forever to come down here." I saw his eyes inch downward toward my legs and he smirked up at me. I had trouble breathing. Was I just checked out by Sirius Black? Bugger…

"My name's Fauna, and I thought you all had dates." I said with a raised eyebrow. Sirius' eyes kept wandering down, but I didn't really mind. Would you? I mean honestly, this is Sirius Black.

"Alright then Faunny." I rolled my eyes at Sirius' nickname. Really, it was a horrible nickname. Made me sound like an old woman. James laughed and looked back at me as if to explain.

"We decided we couldn't leave old Moony here alone." He looked behind me. "Where's Evans?"

"She had a date." I said rather awkwardly. James looked completely crestfallen after hearing that. He stood up and pointed an accusatory finger at me.

"Weren't you supposed to try and get her with me?" I gasped in shock.

"Hey, I agreed to help you. I don't have complete control over Lily and her dates alright?" He glared a little at me. I had to laugh. He looked like a little boy who wasn't allowed to eat the cookie he wanted. It was quite funny. "James don't worry. It's just Amos Diggory. You know that prat only talks about himself." James looked even angrier.

"Blasted Amos. If he even touches Lily well…something bad will happen. Believe you me." I laughed a bit more. Sirius stood up and came next to me, and (this where I stop breathing) he put his arm around me. God, I could've just died. Of course if either Lily or Cassie saw me with the marauders I'd never hear the end of it.

"Now that you're ready, and we're ready, let's go." He steered me toward the Common Room entrance, and practically dragged me out of there. I had to laugh.

"Why are you so eager?" Sirius looked at me as if it was obvious.

"Zonko's gets full faster than any other shop." I laughed loudly. Gosh, I loved the marauders.

------------------Three hours later--------------------

I hate those fucking marauders! If I ever see one of them again I'll kill them! I guess you're wondering why I'm so angry, right? Well it all started when we first got to Hogsmeade. We had been having so much fun laughing and fooling around in almost every shop. Sirius had even called me cute when I had almost tripped. What a moment for him to compliment me right? Well, everything was going great. Until that damn Angelica entered the picture.

James had later told me that both she and Peter had had detention. But they had somehow snuck out and were with us less than an hour after we had gotten here. She had glared at me and almost jinxed me, when Remus stopped her. I guess I wasn't completely innocent either. I did try to hit her. I was only defending myself! That wasn't even the worst of it. They had begun to jinx my hair to start flying all over my face. And after I had gotten it so pretty too, those prats! Even Remus was laughing a little. Well, you could expect my reaction. I had gotten so angry, I stepped up to Sirius (who was the one doing the jinxing) and stepped on his foot with the bottom of my heel. He had begun hopping around in pain while I stomped away from them.

Well, that's certainly the last time I ever join the marauders on a Hogsmeade trip. I had gone to the Three Broomsticks looking for either Lily or Cassie, but they were nowhere in sight. So I had just decided to walk around. Which was a really bad idea, considering I hated being alone. I wasn't the most independent person. I hadn't even looked at where I was going. So when I looked up from my feet and realized that I was at the gates of the Shrieking Shack, well I was more than scared. I was positively terrified. I turned to leave, when I felt myself slam into someone. The person was taller than me, so I ended up hitting their chest.

"Oi, you want to give me some warning?" I shouted grabbing my spinning head.

"You're the one that slammed into me!" Uggh, I knew that voice. Black. Regulas not Sirius. Could things get any worse?

"Don't sneak up on people and maybe that won't happen. Bloody hell! Do you carry stones in your shirt?" My head was throbbing. Damn Blacks! Those brothers are going to be the end of me. Stupid Black just smirked at me.

"I'm just amazingly strong like that." I rolled my eyes at that. Regulas laughed. "What are you doing here anyway?" I was still rubbing my forehead as I replied.

"Those damn marauders they…wait, I should be asking you the same thing." I crossed my arms and looked at him pointedly. Was it just me, or was Regulas Black looking better and better?

"Curiosity?" I raised my eyebrow at that, not believing a word he was saying. He laughed charmingly (wow Regulas laughed charmingly. Didn't think it was possible for a Slytherin) and looked at me. "Fine, fine. I saw you coming here by yourself." I glared at him.

"And so you decided to come jinx me again?" Regulas rolled his eyes.

"As if I would bother by myself. That would take the fun out of it." I crossed my arms and glared…harder.

"Then why did you come?" He shrugged slightly.

"My idiot brother looked like he was bothering you."

"Yeah, well your idiot brother is a…an idiot!" Regulas chuckled softly.

"You're a strange girl, you know that?" When I didn't respond, he sighed and went closer to the gate. "What do you reckons in there?" I paused before going and standing next to him. This is Regulas Black after all. He could be trying to ambush me for all I know.

"Ghosts? Goblins? I have no idea." I said softly. Regulas nodded slightly before turning to me. He was at least half a head taller than me, so I had to look up to meet his eyes. Sad thing was, I was wearing slightly heeled shoes too. I did notice his eyes trail a bit. "Regulas?" He looked back at me. "My eyes…yeah they're right here." I said pointing to them. Regulas started laughing, and before long, I joined him.

"Like I said, strange. I was only admiring your lovely shirt." He grinned. I glared playfully at him.

"Oh, I'm sure." He laughed slightly, before stepping closer to me.

"Do you like being strange?" Excuse me?

"Do you like being a prat?"

"Gryffindor,"

"Slytherin," My eyes widened as Regulas starting inching forward. Oh God, this was like one of those horrible nightmares life gives you. I suddenly thought how ironic this was. I wished for a Black, and I got the wrong one. Wonderful.

"Get away from her Black!" Whatever was just about to happen didn't as Lily and the rest of the marauders came out of nowhere. "Come here Fauna!" Lily said softly, thought still glaring at Regulas. I looked back at him and saw an evil look in his eye. I almost felt bad for him. He wasn't really doing anything.

"Lily, it's not what you think." I tried to explain. But of course, red-blooded Lily didn't want to hear it.

"Not what I think? He was just about to attack you!" My eyes widened as Sirius was standing next to her, pointing his wand at Regulas. He practically spat out his next words to him.

"Move away from her."

"Guys," I tried.

"I wasn't touching her! And what's it to you?" Regulas started.

"You're harming a Gryffindor that's what."

"Guys, listen." No one did.

"Oh like you weren't trying to jinx her?" Lily shot at him.

"My wands not even out, mud…"

"Guys!"

"Don't even say it!" James threatened at the same time as me.

"I can take care of myself Potter!"

"Guys!"

"You've got to be joking! He was about to call you a…a…well a you-know what!" Ok that's it. This was getting old.

"WOULD YOU GUYS JUST SHUT UP!" I yelled. Everyone froze in their place and looked at me. Wow, talk about uncomfortable. Regulas was smiling at me slightly. I cleared my throat and turned to Lily and the marauders. "First of all, it's because of you prats I'm here in the first place!" I said glaring at Angelica, Sirius, and James. "Second of all, Regulas wasn't trying to jinx me or curse me or anything. We were just talking." I turned to Regulas and smiled slightly. "Sorry. They're bloody annoying I know."

"Are you serious?" Sirius asked incredulously. I turned to him with a sarcastic smile.

"No, you're Sirius." He glared at me as I turned back to Regulas.

"Would you mind walking me back to the castle?" Regulas was still smiling; looking surprised and shook his head. I nodded my head at the surprised faces of Lily and the marauders. Was I going to get it when this trip was over, or what?

Regulas came to my side and we quietly walked back to the castle. What a trip!
