Elizabeth Jones's POV

My Christmas holiday was actually really good. I had one of the most peaceful times of my life. I read loads of books, caught up on all my homework and studying and most of all I had fun. Lily visited a lot to make sure I didn't get lonely or bored and the whole gang visited often to. Lily, James, Sirius and Remus came on the day before Christmas Eve and we shared the presents that we got each other. I even got to have some private lessons with Dumbledore when he was around.

I went out and practised a lot of Quidditch after telling James I would in fact join the team. Having the pitch all to myself was amazing. All that space just to zoom around on my broomstick. It was just stunning on the pitch when it snowed because everything was covered with a white blanket. It was especially great when you woke up quite early in the morning and when you flew the wind stung your face in a weird kind of nice way that made you feel alive.

I was lying in bed smiling thinking about all the things I had done this winter, it was one day before school started and as much as I loved the break I couldn't wait for school to start again, after a while I just got bored of searching the library for books and practising Quidditch.

Suddenly from the common room I heard loud banging and crashes. I immediately got up and grabbed my wand from under my pillow. What the fuck was happening down there? I asked myself. Oh well only one way to find out I thought to myself climbing slowly down the stairs from the Girls dorm.

It was a good job I'd left the fire burning to die out for itself otherwise I would have been completely blinded and wouldn't have been able to see who it was. I had my wand at the ready to stun anyone that was down here.

I realized I didn't have to after I saw none other than Sirius Black's figure near the fire. "Sirius?" I asked slightly confused as to why he was here. Suddenly without warning Sirius pushed everything off a nearby desk and flipped the desk over, growling deeply.

I jumped back in shock and my hand holding my wand flew up in defence. I saw him going over to the book shelf. "What the hell Black!" I shouted. I ran over trying to stop him before he did something to that as well.

He took my upper arms roughly and pushed me against the nearest wall knocking my head slightly. What the hell has happened to him? Before he could turn and destroy something else I did what I could to stop him. I could only think of one way to snap him out of it. I slapped him right across his right cheek, hard. I then grabbed both cheeks putting a hand either side of his face. "Look at my Black!" I shouted.

He was panting hard and looked well… tired, defeated almost. His storm grey eyes stared into mine. He moved his head forward until his forehead was resting on mine he took a deep breath and closed his eyes for a second before opening them again.

My heart was pounding quite hard now but I refused to believe it was because Black was so close to me. I'm pretty sure anyone's heart would be pounding if you found a classmate rampaging through their common room.

"I'm sorry" Sirius apologized in his rough voice letting go of my arms and moving his head back. "I deserved that"

"What happened?" I asked curiosity burning in my voice.

"Did I hurt you?" He asked his voice laced with worry.

"Sirius what happened? Did you and James have a fight?" I asked again.

"Are you hurt?" He growled.

"No I'm fine!" I shouted. "Now tell me what's wrong" I was starting to get really irritated now.

"Don't worry James and I are fine" He smiled weakly. I took my hands away from his face because he'd calmed down. "Sorry if I scared you Jones"

"You didn't scare me I was just a bit worried you were possessed" I laughed.

"Yeah sorry I went a bit ape shit" He chuckled.

"At least you didn't hurt the books" I joked.

"Yeah I'll tell you what happened in a second but I was thinking I should probably tidy up the mess first" He laughed.

"I'll give you a hand." I smiled kindly. I've never seen Sirius like this before. To be honest I've never seen Sirius angry I meant like proper anger. I've seen him when Potter 'accidently' dyed his hair pink or something like that but he wasn't himself five minutes ago. I sort of realized for the first time that Sirius and I were actually friends and that I did care about him. I was worried about what had happened.

After we'd fixed everything we conjured up some hot chocolate and sat in front of the fire.

"Now tell me what happened?" I asked gently not wanting him to go psycho again.

"Well you know I've been living at the Potters?"

"Yeah…"

"Well I thought I should at least visit my family for Christmas you know? So I went on Boxing Day to see if everyone was ok. I didn't expect them to miss me or anything but I wanted to wish them a happy new year etc."

"Ok…"

"Once I got there and my family realized I was back. I basically got hexed out of my own house by my brother and my mum. She was screaming things like 'Blood Traitor' and she told me that I might as well be dead because I was such a waste of a wizard" He growled the last part.

I hesitantly put a hand on his knee trying to be reassuring. I wasn't really use to helping people through things like this… to tell the truth I wasn't really used to personal conversations with people especially not Sirius Black.

"My mum kept telling me to be more like my brother and just not bother coming back and then like I said I basically got hexed out of my own home." He sighed. "I was erm… slightly angry I guess" He laughed awkwardly. "I came here with all my stuff and kind of went ape shit as your saw"

I smiled. I really didn't know what to say. So I just said that. "I don't really know what to say Sirius. I'm not good in these situations" He just laughed at that.

"You really don't have to say anything." He smiled taking a sip out of his hot chocolate. "Just needed someone to listen to me really and snap me out of it…"

We spend God knows how long talking about anything and everything after not seeing each other for three weeks there was a lot to talk about how he thought Lily and James were getting closer and that my plan to get them together might actually work and that he also wanted in. Typical Sirius wanting credit for something I laughed to myself. We also talked about me being on the Quidditch team and how much I've practised over the holidays. After we'd both finished our hot chocolates we just sat looking at the fire as it began to die.

"Are you sure I didn't hurt you?" He asked again suddenly.

"I'm fine really. Like you could ever hurt me" I smirked.

"You wanna bet?" He winked. I saw a mischievous look in his eyes.

"No… No Black don't you dare" I laughed getting up off the sofa as he did.

"Do I detect a hint of fear Jones?" He smirked.

"Yeah right!" I laughed as we both circled round the sofa like an awful Hogwarts western. I saw a chance and I took it. "Night Black" I shouted trying to run to the girl's dorms but Sirius was just too fast.

"Gotcha" He laughed wrestling me to the floor.

"No!" I squealed. Black was straddling me lightly on the floor as we both burst into laughter uncontrollably. Wrestling some more to get up I shouted "Black you're too fat get off me" I giggled.

"What was that?" He asked sarcastically as he put all his weight on me.

"Ahhh" I laughed. I hadn't noticed how close his face had gotten once he'd put all his weight on me but he was only a few centimetres away. Suddenly his laughing stopped I opened my eyes which I had closed from laughing too much to see his eyes were suddenly serious. I was now very aware of how close our bodies were and how mine fit in every line of his. "Sirius wha…"

His lips were suddenly on mine his hands moving to my hair. I was about to hit him when I realized I didn't want him to stop I liked the feeling that was surging through me. I felt like lightening was running through my veins and as he touched my cheek slightly it was almost like my skin reacted with it like acid but it wasn't a bad feeling it was… amazing. I never want this to end.

That's when I also realized I was kissing him back. I think Black was shocked too. I moved my hands to play with his messy hair as our tongues fought for dominance. We rolled over so now I was on the top and continued to kiss each other. His hands had left my hair and one was wrapped around my waist and the other was gently holding the nape of my neck deepening the kiss.

Eliza! You are kissing Sirius Black! I heard a voice scream at me from the back of my head. OH SHIT! What the hell was I thinking? I immediately stopped kissing him squeezed out of his grasp, I got up quickly and said "Night Black" walking as fast as I could up to the girls dorm leaving a rather shocked Sirius still on the floor of the common room.

I ran in and shut the door behind me leaning against it panting slightly from the kiss and from walking so quickly up here. "Oh fuck… fuck…fuck fuckity fuck!" I groaned. "What the hell did I just do?" I moaned hitting my head hard on one of the posts of my bed.

Stupid Black family! If he hadn't have gone and seen his family then he wouldn't have come to Hogwarts which means I would never had seen him and I also wouldn't have kissed him… I kissed Sirius. Aww fuck!

There was no way in hell I like Black! I'd just been rather lonely these past two weeks because everyone was quite busy. Remus had his furry little problem and James and Sirius had to help out with that so they hadn't been able to come and visit and Lily was visiting all her family that she never saw apart from in the winter time.

There was just some physical attraction he was angry and I was bored that's all…

Right?

Sirius Black's POV

I lay panting and stunned on the floor of the Gryffindor common room. That was amazing but I shouldn't have done it I mentally scolded myself. I just couldn't help myself Eliza seemed to have changed over the winter she'd become less shy and closed off. I mean two months ago I could not have had such a nice conversation with her like I did in front of the fire not ten minutes ago and she looked just well… stunning. I'd never seen her laugh so much the way it made her green eyes sparkle.

But of course the Sirius Black can't have one girl who is just a friend apart from Lily no! of course not! I sighed. I guess James was right I did have a thing for Jones but I refused to believe I was 'falling' for her. This was in no way love, I wasn't James Potter and she wasn't Lily Evans. But she kissed me back! I know she did and she can't deny that.

I have to say I'd never had a kiss quite like that it was like ever cell in my body was tingling and I just wanted to never stop holding her. I was not in love with Jones though, I thought determined…I couldn't like her like that

Right?

A/N- It's about time they kissed right? ; )

Now sorry for the late updates but I pre-wrote three chapters because I knew I was going to be doing NaNoWriMo (national novel writing month)
and wouldn't have time to write anything in the month of november. So I'm trying to get them to last so they will be few and far a part I'm affraid.

I really love this chapter not quite sure why it's not just because they kiss.
