Fist fights
"Charlie!"
Charlie turned from where he and some of his mates had secured a dragon to see his head boss Liam Fenwick stood there,
"You've got a visitor waiting for you back at camp." He told Charlie, Charlie thanked him and walked back to where the camp was.
A girl with long dark red hair stood by his tent examining the camp, she turned as she heard footsteps approach and blue eyes turned to face him, it was Ariel.
"Hey Charlie," she said.
He grinned and pulled her into a hug, she hugged him back tightly and when he pulled out he was surprised to see tears in her eyes.
"What's the matter?" he asked.
"Matt dumped me," she whispered, Charlie hugged her again as tears streamed down her face.
"He what?" Charlie stood up livid. Ariel had just re-told him the story about how Sirius had told Matt about Ariel being a witch, she had even told him about the kisses, Charlie had been quiet all the way through her story, but now that she had finished he was mad.
"It doesn't matter," Ariel said wiping her eyes, "He did me a favour, at least I know how Matt would have reacted when I told him."
Charlie felt his anger ebb away and he hugged Ariel again, she leaned into him and he stroked her hair.
"You can stay here as long as you like," he told her before kissing the top of her head.
"Thank you Charlie," she replied.
Sirius lay on his bed, Maria next to him, he wasn't even paying attention to her, instead he was staring at the ceiling and didn't even notice what she was saying until she tapped him.
He turned and looked at her, a blank look on his face, she sighed.
"You love her don't you?"
"Love who?" he asked blankly.
"Ariel," she replied.
He opened his mouth to deny it but she placed a finger on his lips,
"It's fine, I get it and besides I think we both know that we aren't going to work," she smiled softly, "I think you should go after her."
"You do?" asked Sirius sitting up and looking at her, she nodded.
"Yeah, you two belong together," she told him.
"So you're not mad?"
Maria laughed, "No Sirius I'm not mad," she reassured him, "now go and find her before she falls for someone else," she gently pushed him before grabbing her jacket and walking towards the door.
"Maria," she turned to face him. "Thanks." He replied.
"No problem, Ariel's a great girl," she said before walking out.
Sirius sat on his bed wondering where Ariel was and then it hit him, Tonks, she would have wrote to her and Tonks was out at the moment which meant that her room would be empty.
He grinned and hurried out of the room.
Charlie yawned and stretched as he awoke, he turned to look at the bed across from him, Ariel's red hair was splayed across her pillow, he grinned before getting out of his bed, he ruffled his hair and grabbed a t-shirt pulling it over his bare chest and grabbed a towel slinging it round his shoulders and made his way to the front of his tent.
He stepped out and looked up only to jump surprised as he noticed Sirius walking briskly towards him, his face turned stern and he stood straight in front of his tent determid not to move.
"Hi Charlie," Sirius said running a hand through his hair, Charlie noticed that he had a slight stubble around his face, "you haven't seen Ariel have you?" he asked.
"So what if I have?" Charlie asked.
Sirius raised an eyebrow, "I just want to talk to her."
"Well she doesn't want to talk to you."
"So you've seen her?"
"Just leave her alone, Sirius."
"Answer my question."
"She doesn't want to talk to you."
"Is she in the tent," he made to duck under the flap but Charlie shoved him back.
"She doesn't want to talk to you, so why don't you go."
"Not until I tell her what I came to say." Sirius replied, an edge to his voice.
"Well then you're going to be here a long time, because I'm not letting you talk to her."
"I'll talk to her if I want."
"No you won't, as long as I'm stood here, you are not getting in this tent."
Sirius's lips thinned, "Let me talk to her, Charlie."
"No."
Sirius was about to reply when a voice said,
"What's going on, Charlie?"
Sirius turned and watched as Ariel appeared out of the tent wearing a Quidditch jersey that Sirius was sure belonged to Charlie.
"You're sleeping with her!" Sirius cried furious and before Charlie had time to react Sirius punched him sending him sprawling backwards into the tent and causing Ariel to shriek in alarm.
"Charlie!" she cried.
Charlie straightened himself and wiped the blood that was streaming from his nose, he looked at Sirius, who looked ready to kill and anger surged through him, he launched himself at Sirius knocking him of his feet , together they rolled away from the tent into the middle of the camp.
"Stop it!" Ariel shrieked. "Both of you stop it!" she tried to get in the middle of them, but Charlie shoved her aside as Sirius aimed a punch, Charlie dodged it and went in for one, Sirius ducked that and grabbed him around the waist sending him sprawling to the floor.
"Charlie stop it!" Ariel cried, she sounded as though she was crying but Charlie stood up and went for him again.
"Stop it!" bellowed a voice and Charlie found an arm pushing him back, Sirius glowered at him from the opposite end, his nose bleeding and his lip swollen, blood poured from his hair. "What is going on here?" demanded his boss Liam Fenwick staring at Charlie.
"Nothing." Charlie replied pulling himself from Liam's grip and wiping his nose which was bleeding profusely.
Liam merely raised an eyebrow but didn't comment, he realised Sirius and looked at them with disgust before shooing the crowd away that had gathered.
Charlie turned to face Ariel, she was looking at him, fury blazing in her eyes.
"Idiot." She told him before turning and storming back towards the tent. Charlie watched her go before glancing at Sirius, he saw Sirius look defeated before he winced and held his shoulder. Charlie felt slightly sorry for him and walked over.
"Come on," he said. "Let's go and clean ourselves up."
Sirius nodded and together the two of them walked towards the tap that was stood by the side of the camp.
"I'm sorry for accusing you of sleeping with her, Charlie," Sirius apologised as he splashed water on his face.
"It's alright, you obviously care for her," Charlie replied, "I just thought you were screwing her around from what she told me."
Sirius sighed, "I was, I didn't mean to, it just happened."
"I understand," Charlie said, "Firewhiskey?" he asked.
Sirius nodded and together the two of them walked back to Charlie's tent.
They ducked under the tent and stopped, Ariel stood before them fury blazing in her eyes. They looked at each other and gulped.
They were in for it now.
