Chapter 21
Hogwarts (Still Thursday)
The morning had come as a normal day to the people of Hogwarts; no one expected anything out of the ordinary to happen. The whispers of Sirius Blacks possible release had not died down ever since the Headmaster had announced it the previous evening. Many people were still not sure of the news, weather it was true or not.

It was the Daily Prophet's front page article that had them all in frenzy, everyone, other than Ron, had forgotten about the food, and was focusing on the article.

Black Free of all Charges
by Rita Skeeter

It was a well known story, Sirius Black, best friend of James Potter and his wife Lily Potter (nee Evans), had been the secret keeper to the Potter's home and was thought to have betrayed the Potter's location to You-Know-Who who attacked the household on Halloween where the Boy-Who-Lived, Harry Potter, had defeated him when he was just one years old.

Then, my dear readers, as we remember hearing the next day, Peter Pettigrew, a friend of James Potter, had found Black in an alley found in the muggle world. Many witnesses told us that Pettigrew had confronted Black. Next thing anyone knows, the whole street blew up, killing 13 muggles and leaving only a finger of Pettigrew's.

But, what if we have things wrong? It was found out that Sirius Black (from the noble and ancient house of Black) never had a trial and was thrown into Azkaban the very next day. Twelve years later Black escaped from Azkaban and has been hiding who knows where for the past two years.

As it turns out, Sirius Black was never the Potter's secret keeper. This was brought into light of the new evidence of the, very much alive, Peter Pettigrew. Pettigrew and Black had apparently switched the role of secret keeper. In Pettigrew's trial it was discovered that he was an illegal animagus and lived out the twelve years as a rat. He transformed after cutting off his finger when Black had him cornered him that day.

"We wish to extend our sincerest apologies to Mr Black, whom has been unrightfully condemned to a lifetime in Azkaban and would like to free him of all charges," Minister Fudge announced to the press, "we would also like to offer a thousand galleon compensation for each year he was wrongfully imprisoned."

The only question is; where is Sirius Black Now?

Bella looked up from the paper and looked around the Great Hall. People were still talking about the recent news, turning to their friends to get their opinions. She looked at the Gryffindor table and saw that Hermione, Harry and the Weasley's were all trying to conceal their grins. They couldn't help but laugh at the expression that people had on their faces.

Suddenly the double doors of the Great Hall were blasted open making everyone, including the vampires, jump. Standing in the doorway was a well groomed ex-convict. He had the largest smile on his face, as did Bella as she saw her boyfriend standing in front of the whole school. Silence had instantly fallen over the crowd. It was if someone had stopped a muggle movie as they all turned to look at him.

Some people screamed slightly, obviously forgetting what they had just read. The silence ended suddenly when the, now free, man shouted, "I'm free baby!" Bella couldn't help it; she laughed loudly which made everyone turn their attention towards her. Before she could stop herself she jumped over the food covered table, knocking some food onto the floor as she did so but she did not care, nor did she notice as she ran towards him.

He opened his arms in response and was caught off guard when both she and Harry slammed into him from two different directions. Laughing he just hugged them both, motioning to the Weasley's and Hermione to join when he spied them standing to the side waiting for the three to finish. They joined in without hesitation.

The students, and some teachers, were too surprised to say anything. How did Harry, Bella, Hermione, and the Weasley's know the ex-convict? The whispers started again, many starting rumours about how this may have happened. However they were cut short when they saw that the newly free man and their DADA professor snogging on the floor of the Great Hall.

They were interrupted by a loud cough that came from a smiling Headmaster at the front of the room. "Yes, yes, we are all very glad to clear an innocent man of crimes that he had not committed, but maybe this isn't the place to show that kind of happiness?" he looked at Bella, his eyes twinkling annoyingly. She just smirked and got off of Sirius' lap before offering a hand to pull him off the floor.

"As many of you have read, Sirius Black was wrongly accused of a crime that he did not commit, now, you many of you may be seeing him, or Remus Lupin, around the castle for the next week or so. Please leave them be and do not bother them with unnecessary inquiries. Classes will be continuing as normal, so please be ready for your first class which will be in an hour. Thank you." With that said people slowly started eating but still looked at the group standing at the back of the hall.

Bella started pulling at her boyfriend's hand allowing their small entourage to follow behind them. They had made it halfway down the hall when they heard her name calling. She knew that voice; it had haunted her for weeks. She turned slowly, hoping that she was wrong but knowing that she wasn't.

Edward stood a few feet behind the group looking pained, "Bella," he whispered, walking closer to her as she took a few steps back, "how could you do this love? We are supposed to be together."

Gathering up her Gryffindor courage she slowly stepped in front of the group, ignoring the protests of Harry and Sirius, who were very protective of her. "Edward," she said slowly, making him smile, "I don't think so," his smile dropped, her voice grew stronger. "You left me, alone. In the woods." She said slowly to emphasize her point. "You said you didn't love me. You said that I was nothing but a distraction, a play thing, for you and your family. You nearly destroyed me, and now you have the audacity to come to me and say that we belong together?" she was nearly shouting at this point, students and teachers alike stood watching the drama that was unfolding in front of them.

"Love, I lied that day, I was trying to keep you safe. If I had known that you were-"

He was cut off by Bella's sharp laughter. She walked closer to him, so close that she could feel his breath on her cheek, "I don't love you," she said simply, loud enough for the people close by to hear her. He sucked in a large unneeded breath.

"You don't mean-"

"Yes," Bella interrupted again, "yes, I do." She turned around and started walking towards her new family, or old, depending on who you were looking at, "Oh, and detention with Professor Snape tonight at 7, for disrespecting a teacher." His face brightened up until she continued, "and I don't mean me, I'm talking about my brother." It was not until then did she notice the swarm of people looking at her and Edward, "Aren't you supposed to be getting to class or something?" she asked them, making them disperse quickly, bumping into each other, elbows digging into others sides in their rush to leave.

Bella's classroom (Before first period)
"ARGH!" Bella screamed as soon as the door to her classroom slammed shut, which scared Sirius in the process. The trio of students were not there as he had sent them away, with a promise to talk later.

"Bells," he said trying to get her attention as he sat on her desk, "what's the problem?"

Bella stopped the pacing that she was previously doing and looked at him incredulously, "Did you not just see what happened there?" she yelled as she threw her hands up and started pacing again, "I mean, honestly, what was he thinking? That I would accept him back with open arms after everything he had done to me? Where does he come up with these things?" she continued ranting for a couple of minutes as Sirius just stared at her, occasionally playing with something that he had found on her desk.

"...and then grab those needles and just shove them..." Bella trailed off before stopping as she realised something, "Hang on, why are you not doing anything?" she asked slowly.

He smirked before standing up, "I know that you don't want to go with him," his smirk more prominent now, "I heard you and Mooney the other night, you know." Her jaw dropped as he came closer. "Besides," he said, kissing up her neck which made her shiver in delight and her knees weak, "your reaction tells me enough." He said quietly as he quickly kissed her lips. She responded easily, her hands making their home in his hair as his slowly strayed down before resting on her hips, bringing her closer.

He started kissing down her neck again, "I... My... My class..." she said breathlessly.

"Can wait," Sirius finished, before cutting her off with his lips once again, not that she was complaining. His hands started wandering down, from her lips to her thigh, she moaned in his mouth in approval. He continued wandering...

BANG, the door opened with a slam, she pushed him off quickly and rushed her fingers through her hair, but the damage was done... Neville was staring at his professor and the ex convict with wide eyes.

Clearing her throat she decided the best course of action was to ignore the fact that she had been caught with her boyfriend by the now blushing teenager standing in front of her. "You're blocking the door, Neville," she said trying to sound normal. As the class filled in slowly she wandered around the desks, making sure that everyone was there, hitting a smirking Sirius on the arm as she passed by him.

"Now," she announced to the class when everyone had settled, "I had originally planned for some review, but since Sirius was here, I realised that it might be a good idea to tell you how the things you do have consequences, and Azkaban may very well be one of them if you go to certain extremes. And who better to talk to us about such things than one who has gone through this." She smirked at the paling marauder, she knew he didn't like teaching as it meant talking to large crowd and answering questions on the spot... he knew this was pay back.

She quickly grabbed something from her desk and announced that she had to grab something from her office, and encouraged people to ask Sirius some questions and such. Before the door to the office closed he heard her say one word, "Mooney"

I'm screwed, he thought to himself as he stared at the curious (if not slightly scared faces) of the teenagers in front of him. Not to mention the glaring of a particular vampire sitting in the back.

A/N: Here is the latest chapter, literally, just finished, sorry for the crappy newspaper article thing, I need to work on that... :S anyway, I should probably let you know that I may not be updating as regularly as, even though I have just finished exams, my teachers have been giving me assignments and, it should be noted that these chapters are no longer pre-written, it is coming to me when it does. Anyway, hope you are having better days that I have been having and hope you liked this chapter :D
