Hi!

So I like this chapter. (:

Also I was thinking of writing another story, but I am not sure what pairing I would like to write. It would definitely be Hermione, but I don't know who I want as her love interest! So here's my challange for you: Reveiw this chapter, tell me what you think of it and then tell me who you'd like me to pair with Hermione. Whoever has the most, votes if you will, shall be featured in my new story! (:

SO! Get on that!

Enjoy this chapter!

Hermione blushed again.

Sirius began to laugh hysterically.

Playfully smacking his chest, Hermione got up and walked up to Fred.

"Invade on us again and I shall hex you." She said menacingly, although her eyes danced with amusement.

Fred smirked at her and crossed his arms.

"I'd like to see you try." He teased.

Hermione raised a lone eyebrow and raised her wand.

Fred took a step back in shock.

"Stupefy." She called and Fred froze.

Snickering, Hermione lowered her wand and went into the kitchen.

"You had it coming mate." Sirius said and shot Fred a quick smirk and followed her.

Hermione was by the sink drinking a glass of water. Sirius was about to sneak up on her when an owl tapped at the window.

She took the letter from it and read it silently. Sirius wrapped his arms around her waist and read over her shoulder.

"Dear Hermione,

I just wanted to let you know that Felix is still at the Burrow. Don't worry! I am taking good care of him!

Love,

Ginny."

"Holy shit! I totally forgot about Felix. I am a terrible pet owner." Hermione groaned.

Sirius chuckled.

"He's alright Blossom, we can go see him later but for now, where did we leave off?" He purred into her ear.

Hermione could feel his mouth by her ear, his breath tickling her.

Her breathing became quicker and goose bumps arose on her skin.

Spinning around, she took the initiative and kissed him.

Sirius cupped her face in his hands and kissed her harder.

The sparks that erupted this time were not from fireworks, their magic crackled around them and blended together. Bright colors surrounded them, making shapes and chasing each other. A bright gold color circled them and burst into a mist and settled upon their forms, although neither felt it. They didn't notice any of the happenings around them.

Only a startled gasp alerted them that something was amiss.

They jumped apart quickly, Hermione blushing beet red at being caught again.

Mrs. Weasley stood before them, her hand on her throat. The food she had brought them for dinner crashed to the floor.

"Soul bonding." She whispered alarmed.

"What?" the couple questioned together.

"Soul bonding." Mrs. Weasley said a little louder.

Hermione and Sirius looked at each other confused.

"It is the process of which two souls who are meant to be together, connect, forever sealing the two subjects in a bond much greater than marriage." She explained in shock.

"Why the hell are you telling us this?" Hermione questioned annoyed.

Mrs. Weasley didn't even reprimand her language.

"I've only seen it happen once before. I cannot believe it. Sirius and Hermione? No way possible, but yet…" Mrs. Weasley said to herself, starting to pace.

"Molly, please, what are you talking about?" Sirius asked somewhat nervously.

"You two, are soul mates." She said simply and all but ran from the room.

"Soul mates?" Hermione exclaimed and looked at Sirius.

Sirius had an unreadable expression on his face.

Mrs. Weasley quickly returned with a large tome in her arms.

"Here, read this." She said and all but threw the heavy book at Hermione.

She bent down to clean the forgotten food that had splattered all over the floor.

Groaning, Hermione made her way to the small library on the second floor, with Sirius close behind her.

"My lord, she's gone completely bonkers, she has." Hermione muttered to herself.

Sirius murmured his agreement and sat down on the large overstuffed couch that rivaled the one in the Gryffindor common room.

Hermione set the large book on the small coffee table in front of the couch and sat next to Sirius.

The book had a pink cover. The picture was one of a woman who was being held in her lovers arms, her eyes were closed and the man leaned down to kiss her. A golden glow surrounded them.

"Soul Bonding, by Giselle Burnham." Hermione read aloud.

"What a load of rubbish." Sirius muttered.

Hermione smirked and opened the book to the first page.

"Chapter One, What is Soul Bonding? Soul bonding is the process of which two souls who are meant to be together, connect, forever sealing the two subjects in a bond much greater than marriage." Hermione read aloud.

Mrs. Weasley had obviously read the book many times to know the first sentence by heart.

"The soul mate's bond is sealed when their love is consummated." Sirius read and made a face.

Hermione chuckled slightly.

"What's so funny?" Sirius asked, a frown on his handsome face.

Shaking her head, Hermione looked back at the book.

"It is thought that every being has a soul mate. Some speculate that soul mates were chosen at the beginning of time, by the goddess of love Aphrodite." She read, her voice like honey.

She clucked her tongue and scanned through the next few pages.

"Chapter Two, How to know when two people are soul mates." She looked up at Sirius.

He gave her an encouraging nod and she continued.

"During the first (or in some cases second) kiss of the couple, the pair's magic will blend together and a golden mist will settle upon them. " Hermione read and frowned.

There was a picture of a man and woman kissing violently. Sparks erupted around them and Sirius and Hermione watched as the golden mist descended on the couple.

"When it is known that the couple are soul mates, they cannot enter a relationship with another person." Sirius read in disbelief.

"That is total bull shit!" Sirius exclaimed.

"What?" Hermione questioned angrily, rising slowly for the couch.

Sirius all but kicked himself.

"Hermione, no! I just meant, what if the couple really don't get along-" He began, digging himself deeper.

"No! Just shut up Sirius! I know what you're trying to say! You don't think we're compatible!" Hermione yelled, tears welling up in her eyes.

"I do Blossom, I was just-" Sirius argued, temper rising.

"Here's the Sirius Black I was expecting! The cowardly man-whore who can't focus on one woman at a time!" Hermione screamed, throwing one of the couch pillows at him.

His temper snapped.

Sirius sprang up from the couch and gripped her upper arms tightly and pulled her close to him.

"Listen to me, I am not a man-whore, and I am most certainly not a coward." He growled menacingly.

Tears began to flow from Hermione's eyes and down her cheeks, soaking Sirius' shirt.

He gripped her harder.

"Don't ever call me a coward again!" He hissed, and shook her violently.

"Sirius! Let me go! You're hurting me!" She cried and struggled against him.

Sirius snapped back to reality and let her go.

She stumbled backwards, but regained her footing. Trying to get past Sirius, Hermione began to sob.

"God Hermione, I am so sorry." Sirius said horrified at his own actions.

He reached out to her.

"Don't touch me!" She screamed and ran past him.

He could hear a door slam shut, and winced.

Plopping down onto the couch, he put his head in his hands.

"What the fuck have I done?"

So I threw in a slight plot twist AND a fight. Damn I'm a good author! Hahaha.

Anyways, Remember the challange about the new story and pairing.

Can I get another 10 reveiws in exchange for a new chapter? (:
