A/N: Obviously we do not own the song "It's Raining Men"; it belongs to the Weather Girls :3
XOXO
After a few weeks without incident, the first big Quidditch match of the year came up, and it was Gryffindor Verses Slytherin. As James and Sirius had made their ways to the field earlier in the morning, the group's females rushed around their dorm, getting themselves dressed and ready to support the team. They all had painted their nails yellow and red, and they wore their scarves. Al had on dark washed jeans with red converses. She had dyed the laces yellow, and she wore a gray shirt. She pulled her hair back in its normal fashion, and she moved down towards the common room to wait. As she got down there, she was greeted by Remus and Peter.
"Morning." They said cheerily to her. She smiled, and spoke in return,
"Good morning." She had come out of her shell more and more the past few weeks. She found she and Remus had a good bit in common; more then she'd originally thought. Both from Middle class families, both only children; both rather intelligent. She had started spending a good deal of time with him as well, much to her delight. She took her seat on a chair, and conversation continued until the others emerged from the stairs, and they all headed towards the stadium.
Eavan had been the first of the group of girls to shower and get herself dressed but had opted to stay behind and help Lily pick out her outfit while Al had gone on ahead to the Common Room. The blonde and raven haired Gryffindor herself was wearing a pair of form-fitting jeans with holes in the knee (her favorite pair), a burgundy red t-shirt covered by her cousin Elliot's thick black hoodie, her Gryffindor scarf wrapped loosely around her neck, and lastly her black converse with frayed patches stitched to the side.
Once Lily had finally decided on her outfit for the game the two finally left the girls dorm and ventured downstairs to meet with Al and Remus and Peter before making their way out to the stadium.
"So…please tell me I'm not the only one who doesn't understand this game…" Lily almost begged, glancing between her friends.
Eavan shrugged, "I don't know too much about it and its rules, but I know enough to understand when we get a point or something good happens."
Al smiled as Lily spoke, she shrugged,
"I know my father played it when he was here, so I'm supposed to like it because he said so. I know also that if James catches the little gold thing, I think it's gold, we get more points. That's about the extent of my knowledge." Al offered back. They made their way out of the Castle and into the Pitch. They pushed towards the front, and they could see the entire field. Remus stood behind them, and Peter to his side. Al felt something brush her butt, and she looked warily behind her, to see it had been Peter, and he was just starring at her lower region. She shifted closer to the females, and leaned over lightly,
"Can someone tell me who that boy that follows us around is?" She thought about it, and he was always around! He never said anything, he was just slightly odd. Eavan started to speak, when she scooted forward with a squeak.
"He touched me!" She whispered harshly. They didn't want to say anything to him, and no one answered Al's question because the game was starting. As the teams Ascended in the air, Sirius took his spot, and looked into the crowd. He loved his vantage point from up here, he could see everything. He saw the Quaffle and the Snitch released, and he got himself on the ready.
About 30 minutes into the match, Gryffindor was up by 10, and the Slytherins were not happy about it. The Chasers again scored, and the Gryffindor fans went wild. They jumped up and down and screamed, and as they were cheering, Sirius caught sight of a certain dirty blonde bouncing happily in the crowd. He smiled, and he tried not to let his eyes wander, but of course, as he looked down at her, she stopped for a second to remove the hoodie she was wearing. He growled in the back of his throat, and he felt himself shift on his broom. He tried to look away, but he couldn't, until he saw something flying towards him. He knocked the black ball away, and he heard the cheers from the crowd resume when the team scored again. He smiled, and he looked back at the crowd in time to see Eavan bouncing up and down happily, and he swallowed, and smiled pervertedly.
"Black, heads up!" Screamed a loud male voice from the crowd. He looked back swiftly, but not fast enough. The Bludger caught him square in the face, knocking him most of the way off his broom. He dangled by one hand on the broom, and he swallowed harshly. Damn his perverted tendencies!
There was a medley of cheers and gasps as Sirius Black was struck with the Bludger, causing him to lose balance on his broom and fall off of it. Everyone on the Gryffindor side of the pitch stood from their seats, holding their breath and hoping that he'd be able to get back onto his broomstick before his one-handed grip failed him.
Sirius was left dangling in the air, one hand latched tightly onto his broom that was slowly starting to descend while his other hand desperately tried to grasp onto the wooden shaft for my stability. He would vaguely hear the chanting of, "Knock him off! Knock him off!" from the Slytherin side of the stadium through the ringing in his ears.
Eavan bit her lip so hard that the tender skin broke open and she could taste the crimson copper-flavored liquid on her tongue, but she didn't even notice it, she was more focused on Sirius and even though she had no belief in any higher being, she began to pray that he'd be okay.
One of the chasers for Slytherin whizzed by Sirius, so close that the other boy's cloak blew right against the silver-eyed boys face, which by now was throbbing in tremendous pain. Sirius closed one eye when the blood from his head wound began to seep into it, causing his vision to blur, but he was determined to win the game and beat those Slytherin bastards so he sucked in a deep breath and pulled himself up onto his broom, right as another chaser came zooming by, smacking right into the side of his broom and in turn, causing Sirius to spin out of control for a few moments.
The Gryffindor side was so silent anyone could have heard a pin drop. Everyone watched Sirius nervously. Until someone screamed from behind them,
"Get up, Black!" The voice was male. They turned to see it was a 4th year they didn't know well enough to call a friend. Al noticed others start to do the same, and she leaned towards the rail and yelled herself,
"Come on, Sirius!" She cried so loud her voice cracked. Next Lily started to cheer, followed by Eavan and Remus. The entire side began to cheer uproariously until he was back on the broom. He raised his arms above his head, and the group went even wilder. He rolled the wooden object around in his hand, and he flicked his hair back. The Bludger came back towards him, and he reeled back and slapped it away viciously. Before anyone knew what was happening, Gryffindor had caught the Snitch, and the game was over. The group made their way towards the team, and Lily stopped in her tracks.
"Lily?" Al asked. She turned and ran off towards the dorms. The others turned to see James being pawed by many girls. Eavan and Al walked up and to him, yelled very profane expressions at him, and ran off after Lily. On their way up, they stopped in front of the castle.
"I have an idea of a way to cheer up Lily." Eavan said. Al glanced at her with a smile,
"Yeah?" She questioned. Eavan smiled, and she looked up at the sky,
"Looks like rain." She said. making her way into the castle. Al looked up too, and then looked after Eavan.
"Raining? Unless you mean men, which would be a rather rude stab at Sirius...Oh..I like the way you think, Eavan. Very much so." Al said smiling as wickedly as Eavan had previously.
Al and Eavan linked arms and marched themselves back up to Gryffindor Tower to pick out what they were going to wear to the big celebration party in the Room of Requirement later that night. When they got back to their dorm they found Lily stomping around the room in circles, huffing raggedly in anger. The two girls exchanged knowing looks and grinned.
"So, what's this all about, hm?" Eavan cocked an eyebrow and Lily immediately stopped her pacing and whirled around to face the two girls.
The gorgeous red-head crossed her arms over her chest, "I don't know what you're talking about."
Al giggled, "I think you know exactly what we're referring to, you like James! And not just like him, you like like him!"
Lily looked highly affronted and opened her mouth to retort but closed it, finding nothing to say, and then opened it once again and closing it, making her resemble that of a gasping fish. Needless to say, Eavan and Al were amused by their friend's undeniable crush on James; it was obvious to them and everyone else, aside from James himself who was as oblivious as ever.
"You guys are crazy, why would I like that arrogant, self-centered, toerag?!" She shrilled.
Eavan smirked and spoke in a singsongy voice, "Looks like someone's a little jealous!"
Lily scoffed and attempted to act like she had no idea what the blonde was talking about, but her face gave away the way she truly felt, "J-jealous? Why would I be jealous of Potter?"
"Because of all those slags hanging around him after the match, and you marched off all red-faced…" Al spoke thoughtfully.
"I quite agree." Nodded Eavan. Lily flopped to her bed, exasperated. She shook her head dejectedly.
"What did I do to deserve this?" She said miserably.
"You just have to show him you like him!" Eavan assured her. Lily shook her head,
"But, why do I like him!? He's...He's..James Potter!" She cried. Al smiled,
"What's not to like? He's charming, sometimes, funny, handsome. Nothing wrong with any of that, oh, and he's crazy about you. Nothing else to shake a finger at, believe me." She said with a nod. Eavan agreed, and eventually they were able to drag towards the Room of Requirement. They entered the room, and smiled at each other. They sat Lily down, and at the corner of the room, a small stage with duet mics set up appeared. Al and Eavan raced towards the stage, and Eavan grabbed the mic, rambling briefly about the brilliant victory today. She then motioned for Al to start the music. Al did happily.
"Hi!
We're your Weather Girls." Eavan
started with a grin, immediately followed by Al,
"And
have we got news for you!"
"You better listen! And get ready, all you lonely girls, and leave those umbrellas at home!" Eavan continued, glancing at the clock to see it nearing 10:25.
Everyone in the room just stared at the two girls, confused as to what was going on, and the boys were absolutely clueless.
"Humidity
is rising - Barometer's getting low
According to all sources, the
street's the place to go
Cause tonight for the first time
Just
about half-past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna
start raining men!"Eavan and Al both sang in
perfect unison, and when the last line was sung the two girls
simultaneously cast a spell over the room, in secrecy of course so
that no one knew that it had, in fact, been them to do it.
First it was a couple of the younger Gryffindors, then gradually it led up to James, Sirius, and Remus to feel a strange tugging sensation and before they knew what was happening they were hovering dangerously close to the ceiling….before falling to the ground and repeating the process while to two girls continued to sing the song. All the girls in the room cheered and giggled at what was going on, the only ones who weren't amuse by it were, obviously, the boys who were perpetually falling from the ceiling.
"Bloody hell!" Sirius cried, thrashing around in mid air. James looked at him and Remus, wiggling himself before colliding with the floor.
"I don't understand this!" He yelled over the music at his friends. Remus oofed too as he hit the floor,
"Maybe this is revenge for your stupidity earlier?" He offered. James furrowed his brow, and Remus continued.
"With Lily and the other girls?" Sirius shot James a look, as he too hit the floor.
"This
is your fault then!?"
He cried angrily. The other men in the room all shot James dirty
looks.
He hung his head,
and his face hit the floor squarely. They all looked back towards the
stage,
"It's Raining
Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
I'm gonna go out to run
and let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet!
It's Raining Men!
Hallelujah!
It's Raining Men! Every Specimen!
Tall, blonde,
dark and lean
Rough and tough and strong and mean!"The
girls continued, together and happily being cheered on by the rest of
the females. One male cried out as he hit the floor,
"How long is this song?!" A girl near him smiled,
"This is only the first verse!" She said, joining in singing with the girls on stage. From his vantage point in the air, Sirius intently watched Eavan, and how happy she looked. Despite his impacts to the floor, he couldn't help but smile at her happiness. The way her body swayed with the words she sang, and he glanced over at Remus, who was also smiling, but he didn't look like he was looking at Eavan. It dawned on Sirius at that moment; Remus had taken a liking to Al.
At that moment Sirius didn't know Remus at all, the sandy-blonde haired Marauder was the gentleman of Gryffindor, kind and courteous, smart little Remus Lupin. But right now….Sirius frowned, realizing that Remus was sort of acting more like him (being Sirius) than he was himself and it twisted at the silver eyed boy's insides to know that Eavan was going to get hurt by his best mate.
With the next 'oof' against the hard floor the air was knocked right out of his chest and he gasped in surprise, but the only thing he could think about was talking to Remus after the party.
Lily giggled as James fell right in front of her feet and pouted cutely, jutting out his lower lip and frowning,
"Lily-flower I'm so sorry for whatever I did! Please forgive me, my love!" Before he was thrust back up into the air and dropped from the ceiling once more.
The red-head bit her lip, a part of her felt bad that the boys, especially James, were going through this, but another part, a much stronger part, was thoroughly enjoying their torture at the girls expense.
The song continued, and Al could feel eyes on her. She glanced around, continueing to sing, and she came face to face with the eyes of Remus Lupin. She could feel her face get flushed, but she continued to sing. She didn't want to stop the song, the men hadn't suffered enough. She didn't know why he was staring. Did she look strangely, or was there something on her cloths? Or was he interested? Her heart jumped into her throat and she felt herself sway her hips more, and she watched Remus's eyes travel downwards. She felt powerful for once in her life, and she liked it.
As the song ended, all the men hit the floor one final time, and the singers bowed. The women applauded loudly, and the men grumbled, picking themselves up off the floor. As James picked himself up, Lily giggled, and couldn't contain herself, she pulled him towards her, and their lips connected. Everyone, including James, was stunned to silence. Eavan and Al giggled, and Sirius smiled lightly, Remus more or less looked away.
"Was that completely necessary?" Sirius asked Al and Eavan as they walked up. They giggled, and Eavan shrugged, speaking.
"I think so. Don't you agree Al?" She asked, looking towards her. She nodded,
"Very much so." They grinned, and walked off with Lily. A few moments later, the men reappeared baring drinks this time. They offered them towards the girls, and they shrugged. Al grabbed one first, shocking everyone,
"Let's get trashed!" She said, downing the shot. Eavan grabbed one, downed it, and bleched,
"Yeah! God that tasted terrible."
Sirius noticed that as Remus began to drink he subtly scooted closer and closer to Al until they were sitting side-by-side, leaving Eavan by herself on the other side of Lily. The silver eyed boy wasn't even beginning to feel the effects of the Firewhiskey in his system yet, he and James were proud to admit that from years of practice and underage drinking they were able to hold their alcohol fairly well. He glanced over to the girls, Eavan seemed like the only one of the three who wasn't starting to feel fuzzy-headed yet, he smirked, so she's had a drink or two before too, hm? Somehow I'm not too surprised.
His smirk vanished when he noticed the somewhat intoxicated Al and Remus practically in each other's laps, snuggling cutely. Well, it would have been cute had Remus been single…and if his girlfriend hadn't been sitting right across from him. Sirius felt an aching pang in his heart when he thought about how hurt she must feel to see him cuddling it up with her best friend.
"Oi, James! Pass me another round!" Eavan demanded light-heartedly, a small grin tugging at the corners of her lips.
Sirius tilted his head, confusion etched deep into his misty silver eyes, she could clearly see Remus and Al but…what had him baffled was that she wasn't doing anything to stop it, she didn't even look in the least bit hurt by their actions. What kind of relationship did she and Moony have anyway? Or was she trying to ignore it…?
Al could feel her heart racing, the closer Remus got to her. She couldn't believe this was happening. Not only was she drinking with friends, she could actually call them that, and on top of that, one of those said friends was her love interest of the last four years of her life, and he was currently sitting so close to her she could feel the heat coming off his body into hers. She continued to down Firewhiskey to keep her nerve up, and at this point she could hardly see straight. She looked towards the group, and she saw Sirius watching her and Remus, and it made her squirm slightly. She knew being like this with him was wrong, that Eavan was one of her closest friends, and this wasn't right, but he had started it, and she figured all would be forgotten tomorrow anyhow.
As the others started to file out of the room, Al looked at Lily as she smiled devilishly, and spoke,
"I propose we play a game!" She cried with delight. Everyone glanced at each other, and shrugged,
"Like what?" Al chimed in. Lily seemed happy someone said something to her idea.
"Truth or dare?" She suggested. Eavan smiled wickedly from her spot,
"Sounds like fun to me." She agreed. Al nodded, and the males simply shrugged. Al shifted on the couch so she faced the others slightly, and Remus swung his arm over the back of the couch, around Al's shoulders, and he caught Sirius staring this time, and he honestly didn't care at this point, it felt right to him, so he did it. All eyes went to Lily as she spoke to Sirius,
"I dare you, Sirius Black, to give a lap dance to anyone in this group."
Sirius' eyes danced around the room, examining each person sitting in their lopsided circle before they landed on Remus. He felt an aching pang in his heart when his eyes met the light blue ones of his friend and Sirius felt a sudden surge within him begging to get a rise out of Remus. Granted, at this point Remus probably wouldn't even care, judging from the position he and Al were in.
A playful smirk tugged at the corners of his lips, "Oh Ave!"
James choked on the saliva in his mouth and burst out laughing, and even Lily giggled uncontrollably as Sirius positioned himself hovering over the blonde and raven haired girl's lap and began to sway his hips softly before it become more vigorous. The messy haired boy with glasses snorted, taking his leg and stretching it out to kick Sirius lightly. The silver eyed boy let out a surprised yelp, quickly turning himself around so that he didn't completely smush Eavan.
Silence reigned over the small group for a good 5 minutes as Sirius and Eavan stared into each other's eyes, not even noticing the compromising position they were in. Sirius was holding himself up by his hands on either side of Eavan's shoulders, while their legs were intertwined together. Remus coughed awkwardly, finally breaking himself away from Al long enough to shoot Sirius a disapproving look, to which the silver eyed boy ignored, he was too lost in the emerald sea that was Eavan's bright eyes.
Al giggled lightly as Sirius invaded Eavan's personal space. This game had always amused her, but this was a more intense version then she'd played in recent memory. Though, from the company she was beginning to keep, she should have guessed nothing would be the same juvenile way it had been before.
This entire night had been a strange turn of events for her, though she couldn't say she minded any of it. She had been hanging out with friends, and enjoying a Quidditch match, which was new to her. She found the sport very entertaining, despite what she thought of it originally. She also enjoyed the group she was with, and then being spontaneous and breaking out of her shell enough to cheer up Lily had helped, and this was her first time having alcohol outside of home, and she had to admit drinking with friends was much more fun. And, then things with Remus started to get a little more...touchy. He hadn't been like this before, but she didn't say she minded. It was quiet the opposite, actually.
As Sirius yelped, her thoughts were broken. She looked to see him standing over Eavan, and she could feel the room get silent. They just stared...it seemed like a long time before Remus shifted and coughed; though as much as he seemed to disapprove, he didn't remove his arm from the back of the couch; he merely straightened himself, and in turn leaned more towards Al, which made it seem almost hypocritical for him to make eyes at Sirius. Before anything else got more awkward, Al spoke up,
"Lily, truth or dare?"
"Uh...truth?" She stammered, getting slight sighs from the others. Al smiled,
"Whose on top, you or James?" The group giggled, and looked at her expectantly.
Time seemed to have stopped for Sirius and Eavan, and even though he had now been able to force himself off of her their eyes were still connected. Her cheeks were dusted over by a light tinge of pink from embarrassment but Sirius found himself thinking how adorable she was when she was flustered, which led to thoughts of him and her…alone…
He shook his head to clear away the thoughts that were invading his mind, what the hell was wrong with him?
"Hypothetically, if me and James were to do such things, he'd prefer me to be on top because he hypothetically has a fetish for such things….this is all hypothetical, of course." Lily blushed madly while side-ways glancing at James.
Al giggled, "Oh, of course, Lily!"
The frazzled redhead hid her face in James' shoulder while the rest of the group snickered.
"Alright, Ave, Truth or Dare?" James turned to her, enjoying the feeling of Lily snuggled up against him.
"Dare."
His lips twitched into a smirk, "I dare you to give Sirius a strip tease." He had definitely not missed the way his best mate had stared at her, and since Remus was a little too preoccupied with someone else, James was going to take full advantage of the situation.
Al grinned lightly at James's dare. Remus cocked an eyebrow, but let it slide. He looked back at Al, who looked up at him, her eyes shining with amusement, and he just stared, he couldn't turn his eyes away until he saw movement out of the corner of his eye. He watched Ave stand up, and position herself in front of Sirius.
She was excited, her hands shook lightly. She never felt this thrill when she was going to do something for or with Remus. Maybe it was because she wasn't supposed to do this while dating Remus; but that wasn't going to stop her. She wanted to do this. She ran her hands down her sides, and she could feel Sirius's eyes fall her hands every move. She tugged the hem of her shirt slowly, exposing inch by inch of her skin to the boy before her. She pulled it even slower as she got right beneath her upper chest. She pulled it slowly over her head, and dropped it behind her. She bit her lip as she looked down at him, and she worked her hands past her bra and back to her pants line. She hooked her thumb into the corner and she exposed her hip to him. He swallowed hard, and he shifted on the couch. He was trying to hide his own excitement, but was doing very poorly.
"Merlin Ave.." He partly moaned. She smiled at him, and she stepped closer to him, and unbuttoned her pants, and slowly pulled down the zipper. She began to slide them off her legs, and exposed more skin to him. He couldn't stand it any longer as her legs were exposed to him, he ran his hand up her thigh and he slide it up her thigh, and over to her underwear clad butt, gripping one cheek rather tightly. She giggled in shock, and Remus spoke up finally,
"Ay, mate! Hands."He said gently. He didn't really sound angry though, shockingly. Before Ave could do anymore damage, she quickly pulled her cloths back on and she looked towards Al, smiling evilly.
"Al, truth or dare?"
"Dare." Al challenged back, smirking in return.
Eavan put her finger to her chin in deep thought, trying to come up with a good enough dare to give her friend. She wanted something that would make Al awkward, like she had felt during her last dare with Sirius….and then she had it. The emerald eyed Gryffindor smirked playfully, pointing a finger at her friend, "I dare you, Al, to give Remy a hickey!"
Everyone was taken by surprise by her dare, had it been anyone else they would've laughed but that was her boyfriend that she was suggesting this be done to. Sirius caught Remus' eye and noticed the subtle brightness that seemed to shine from the dare made by Eavan and it made him sick.
Al turned to Remus, her face bright red, and slowly leaned down to trail light kisses from his jaw-line to his collarbone where she began to nibble on the skin and suck the growing red mark that was beginning to form. The sandy blonde haired man bit back a groan of pleasure, lolling his head to the side and tightening his grip around her shoulders. The tiny brunette took this as a sign to go on further, clamping down on his collar a little harder than before and sucking on the tender skin. That seemed to be one of his special-spots, she realized, when he let out a small moan, wanting her to keep going. As much as she wanted to, she knew that if she did then there could be consequences, namely from Eavan, though thinking about it now, Al did find it strange that her friend would pick her own boyfriend to be the victim in this situation…
Al stopped, pushing gently away from Remus to admire her work, a big bright purplish-red mark lying over his collarbone.
"Wow…er…James? Truth or Dare?" Sirius swallowed the pooling of saliva in his mouth, still feeling slightly aroused by Eavan's earlier dare and sort of wishing that that had been him and her just now rather than Remus and Al.
As she smiled at the mark she'd left on Remus, his head lowly lulled back towards her, and his normal blue eyes. She hadn't ever seen anything like them. She swallowed, and quickly looked away from him as Sirius spoke again. She felt her face dusted very pink, and she couldn't focus. She wanted to leave more marks on Remus if he was going to react like that...
James started to respond when Peter came and sat very closely to his side that wasn't occupied by Lily. He smiled at the group awkwardly, and spoke,
"Oi! What's going on?" He said more cheerily then any of them would have wished. They just stared at him, and he looked around, as if wondering who they were looking at. He looked behind him, and stood for a second,
"Excuse me for a second!" He said in the same cheery tone. He made his way towards the bathroom. As he entered, Sirius jerked his head towards the door. Everyone nodded silently, and they made towards the door slowly, slow enough to hear,
"That one blew my hair back!" Come from the bathroom, and they all moved a little faster towards the exit. As they entered the hallway, the group moved slowly down the hallway, and started to laugh uproariously. They braced themselves on the wall, but only had a second to catch their breath as they heard the mewl of a cat, and the angry voice of Filch cry,
"Whose out there?!" The entire group bolted in different directions at this point; Lily and James down one hall. Remus and Al down some stairs, and Eavan and Sirius out a door leading towards the outside corridors.
XOXO
Al wasn't much for running and could already feel a stitch forming in her side, her lungs burned for more oxygen and she found herself wanting to just stop running altogether, but Remus had grabbed onto her hand, dragging her along behind him, wherever he was headed. To be completely honest, she wasn't sure if he even knew where he was going, just that they were running from Filch.
She felt herself being pulled into a room, the door shutting behind them and she immediately recognized where they were, but how they made it all the way down to the Dungeons that quickly, she had no idea. Cauldrons were still set up in the Potions room, Slughorn must've been too lazy to clean up after his last class, and she mused.
Remus turned around to face her and she felt a lump form in her throat under the intense, smoldering gaze that he was giving her. She wasn't sure why, but the way he was staring at her made her feel uncomfortable and giddy at the same time.
"I…uh…you think he's gone yet?" She stuttered nervously.
Remus sat down on one of the empty desks and shrugged, "Now that he knows there's students out, he'll more than likely be prowling the halls. I suggest we stay in here for a while, just to be safe."
She nodded, hopping up onto the space on the desk beside him, swinging her legs over the side like a child would, "So, I'm surprisingly having a really good time tonight…"
He tilted his head, "Was there any doubt that you would have a good time?"
"Well, no it's not that it's just…I didn't want to be all awkward."
"What do you mean?" He scooted closer to her, making her heart flutter.
"I..er…well, you know…James and Lily…you and Eavan…and then there's just me, crushing on a taken man and I—er I mean! Uh…" She bit her lip, her cheeks heating up from embarrassment at letting her secret out.
It may have been a trick of the dim moon lighting, but she could have sworn that she saw a glint of mischief gleam in his light blue eyes as he stared her down with a lustful gaze.
"Are you trying to say that you have a crush on me, dear?" He grinned, gently stroking her cheek with his index finger, making her shiver with delight.
Al leaned in to his touch, momentarily closing her eyes, "I..Well, yeah, since like…2nd year actually…"
He leaned in closer to her so that his lips were just a breath apart before whispering, "Well, good things come to those who wait, love."
She didn't even have time to process what he had meant before his lips crashed onto hers in a passionate, lust-filled kiss. Al could feel his desire for her pouring out in his kiss as he gently thrust his tongue into her mouth, she moaned, pushing herself closer to him and letting her tongue defiantly battle for dominance over his own.
The sandy blonde pushed her down onto the table and straddled her waist, their tongues still doing a tango of passion while his hand slowly inched its way up her shirt, sending a shiver through her spine with ever gentle touch. Al moan, arching her back, her arm twitched and knocked into the table next to them, sending the cauldron that had been on top of it tumbling to the floor with a loud clatter, a strange liquid spewing everywhere.
Al jumped at the sound, startled; as did Remus and they both glanced down at the mess on the floor. Where the strange potion hand landed the floor had begun to be eaten away until there was nothing but a large hole in the middle of the floor.
"…What the hell kind of potion was that?!" The petite brunette stared, still feeling flustered by what had just happened between her and Remus, but also fearful that Filch might have heard the noise and was on his way to investigate.
Remus shrugged, biting his lip nervously.
"I like you too, Al."
"What?" She stared at him incredulously.
He cleared his throat, but his voice still came out a little husky, "I've liked you for a while too."
"Then…what about Eav…?"
Remus frowned; he honestly didn't know what to do about Eavan. This wasn't like him at all, and he didn't want to break her heart, but at the same time his feelings for her were waning more and more with each passing day. He wanted Al in every possible sense, tonight had definitely proven that, even if he had acted on his instincts because of the full moon coming up, fact of the matter was that the feelings would have still been there, full moon or not. He just needed to figure out what to do with them…
XOXO
It hadn't crossed Eavan's mind that they were outside. She didn't know where they were going, but she trusted Sirius to take care of her, no matter where they went. She tripped mildly, but Sirius caught her on the way down. She giggled lightly, and pulled herself up.
"Whoops!" She muttered with a drunken grin. He pulled her up, and their bodies touched, and she blushed, and she looked at his eyes, she wanted to kiss him at that moment. She felt her eyes flicker down towards his lips, and she looked back at his eyes.
"Is it bad I want to kiss you, Sirius Black?" She asked, whispering. He smiled,
"Not as bad as the fact I want to let you; despite knowing Remus is my best mate." He said, somewhat sadly. He wanted her, more then he'd ever wanted anything. He pulled away before he could do that to Remus. She looked disappointed, but he didn't care at this point. He swung an arm over her shoulders, and he moved them towards the Quidditch Pitch. As they pushed the stadium doors open, he held it open for her, and she moved past him. Before he could stop himself, he caught up with her, and slapped her cheek he'd grabbed earlier.
"You have a nice ass." He commented, making her blush and mumble a thank you. She looked at the ground, and glanced at him as he sat down in the center of the field. She went and sat next to him, leaning her head on his shoulder. He put his arm around her waist, and he pulled her to him. He leaned into her ear, and he whispered,
"You are beautiful, Ave." He knew he shouldn't be doing this, but he didn't know how else he could stand it. He started to whisper other sweet sentiments into her ear, and she leaned her self into him. He was making her feel so different then Remus ever had. Remus had been great to her, but she didn't feel this connection with Remus. He couldn't make her get out of his mind, and he was starting to lie down, and he pulled her with him. She curled into his side, and she looked up at him.
"You really believe that?" Her eyes held question. He nodded, with a smile.
"More then anything in the world, Love." He said to her. She could feel her eyes brim with tears. He used his thumb to wipe away the tears that threatened to fall from her eyes. She smiled sadly, and she looked back up at the sky,
"I don't understand this..the way I'm feeling with you. I care about Remus, but I don't know how I can go on with these feelings for you Sirius." She sat up, breaking the hold he had on her. She stood up, and she began to pace.
"I mean, when Remus and I started dating, I didn't know you, and you were just there. Yeah, so you were good looking. Your Sirius Bloody Black, of course you were. But then you became my friend, and I thought to myself 'Sure, he's charming, but he's just being nice.' But, then no, you had to become a thing to me! I can't stop thinking about you, and when I kiss Remus, I think of you, and I know Remus keeps things from me! I know I can't be perfect for him! We are so different! But he is such a sweet person, but I see the way he looks at Al, and I see the way she's always looked at him, I know she's liked him for a long time, and I think they'd be more suitable for each other, but I'm scared I'd hurt him. And then, I know I want you. More then you even begin to know Sirius, Merlin! But I don't know what to do..." She was in tears at this point, and he moved to his feet, he pulled her against him, and he pulled her mouth to his. Her tears wet his face, and he pulled back, holding her shoulders tightly so she was looking at him.
"I have never felt for someone the way I feel about you. I cannot sleep, I don't want to eat when I think about you and Remus. I just want to hold you, and make you mine forever, Ave. I cannot stand the sight of Remus most days, and it isn't fair to him, but you have to tell him...if you really want to be with me." He didn't mean to sound demanding, but that was the truth. He had to have her. Before he could speak again, she pushed him beneath her, and she locked their lips together. She bit his lip, and forced her tongue into his mouth. She still cried a little bit, and she looked down at him.
"I will...I just need time..and right now, I need you.." She trailed off. She didn't know what possessed her to say such things, but she couldn't help it. Sirius smiled at her wickedly, and he ran his hand up her side, and back down, toying with the waistline of her pants,
"As you wish."
