Chapter 5—Tears in the Dark
Daniéle led a shaking and shuddering Sirius back to his quarters. She quickly said the password, and laid his sweaty form onto the dark blue sheets on his bed.
Daniéle wiped the sweat from his brow with a rag she conjured, and hesitantly lowered her lips to his. She stopped millimeters from his lips, contemplating where she was in her life now, and the turn her life would take should she decide to kiss Sirius.
Daniéle pulled her body back from Sirius' slowly and stared at his sweaty figure, lost in a trance.
'Could you live with yourself if you let him die?' she questioned herself.
'Could you live with him if you let him court you? What about Leander, how can you promise to let some man court you while you're still dating him?'
Daniéle closed her eyes in frustration. She didn't know any of the answers to the questions that plagued her mind. She needed help and answers fast.
A shuddering and shaking breath from Sirius pulled her from her reverie. Daniéle closed her eyes in defeat and lowered her lips onto Sirius' softly.
'I'll never have peace if I let him die,' she thought sadly. Because she knew she'd never be at peace with herself or with the entire female wizarding population.
Sirius felt the tremors in his body begin to subside and he felt his energy return to him. His focus moved to the lips pressed softly against his and he smiled against them, before plunging his hand into Daniéle's thick hair and pressing her mouth hard against his.
Daniéle's eyes opened in shock and she tried to remove herself from his strong grip, but Sirius was too quick for her. He wrapped his other arm tightly around her body and pulled her onto his bed, pinning her beneath him.
Daniéle protested and tried to move her mouth from his, but Sirius growled hungrily at her and pushed his body harder against his making Daniéle feel a strange heat begin to flow through her body. Sirius rubbed his body against hers once more and the objection melted from Daniéle's mouth.
Daniéle felt her will to fight disappear and she felt herself fade further and further into Sirius' bruising kiss, and she began to kiss him back feverishly. Daniéle body trembled when she felt and heard Sirius' growl of satisfaction when he felt her hungry response.
Sirius ground his body roughly into Daniéle's body making her moan into his mouth. Sirius smiled into the kiss, while grinding his body into hers once more. He removed his mouth from hers and attacked her neck with scalding hot kisses.
Daniéle groaned softly when she felt Sirius lips and teeth move hotly over her neck and collarbone. She sucked in quickly when she felt Sirius' teeth bite hard into her flesh; Daniéle then blew out softly when his tongue slowly ran over the reddened area, soothing it shortly. The soothing was short lived, because Sirius began sucking harshly on the area.
'Merlin, why doesn't Leander kiss like this?' she thought as her body shook beneath Sirius with passion. Sirius moved his face to hers trying to resume the heated kissing, but she moved her face, preventing contact, feeling guilt seep into her.
'Leander, he'd be crushed if he knew what I was doing.'
"What?" Sirius asked his breath ragged.
"I have to go," she said trying to remove herself from his clutches.
"No, you can't leave," he said holding her in place.
"I have to. I have classes and…I need to go."
"No, love, you won't be needing to go to class tomorrow. We're going to discuss our situation. I've got--"
"Yeah, can you get off of me now?"
Sirius starred at Daniéle for a moment before heeding her request.
"Sorry love," he said sliding off of her body.
"I'm leaving," she said jumping off of the bed and not looking back at Sirius. She heard the sheets shift but she ignored it.
"Bloody hell!" Danielle exclaimed when she saw Sirius standing in front of the door with crossed arms.
"You can't leave love."
"Stop calling me that. I'm not your love; you don't know anything about me Professor Black."
"I know more than you think, love, and my name is Sirius," he said advancing towards her.
"I don't give a rats arse that you name is Sirius, Professor Black. And I don't want to stay here. I'm going back to my room."
"No, you'll stay here and tomorrow we'll discuss our options," Sirius touching Daniéle's cheek softly.
"What options? All of my options were sucked out the window when I agreed to this," she said angrily while slapping his hand away.
"Look Daniéle, I understand that this is a lot to take in," Sirius said swallowing his anger, "but that's why we're going to wait until tomorrow to talk, so you can wrap your head around all of this. And I'm certain that once we talk, you'll understand. You'll understand how much I love and need you. And you'll see how right this is," he said starring at her with soft gray eyes.
"But right now we both need to rest; it's been a long day for the both of us."
Sirius swung Daniéle into his arms and placed her in his bed gently. He then climbed in next to her and pulled her body flush to his. He waved his wand, extinguishing all of the lights.
"Goodnight love," he said placing a soft kiss on her lips before closing his eyes and going to sleep.
Daniéle stared into the darkness unhappily. "What am I going to do?" she breathed into the night softly, before breaking down into tears.
