Romy and Sirius sat across from each other at dinner. Everyone was already there when they arrived.

"How was your date, Roms?" Alice asked happily, Frank sitting next to her.

Romy shrugged. "It was okay."

"Anything happen?" Lily asked, looking far too smug next to James.

"Nope," she lied. Sirius looked up at her from his dinner then back down. "How was your day?"

Romy's eyes darted from Lily to James, making her friend blush.

"Good," she cleared her throat and smiled.

As much as Romy wanted to be happy for Lily, the letter between Sirius and James kept running through her mind when she saw them together. Lily would never forgive James, especially if they ended up being together but knowing that small information hurt Romy when she saw how happy they were together and just how much James would do to have Lily.

She felt a foot nudge her from under the table. She looked up to see Sirius watching her.

"You okay?" he mouthed.

She nodded in response and began to eat her food slowly. Romy couldn't help but stare at Sirius. She was annoyed at herself for basically causing the argument when things were looking up but she just couldn't let herself agree with what he had done. Looking at her food, she felt her stomach begin to turn.

"I'm not that hungry," Romy said and pushed her plate away. "I'm just going to go upstairs. I'll see you guys later."

Everyone watched her as she stood up except Sirius. Chewing on the inside of her cheek, Romy walked out of the Great Hall all of a sudden angrier than she I risky was at Sirius. How could he decide to make sure she was alright one minute and then leave her to walk off another?

Boys, she thought to herself and shook her head. All she wanted to do was sleep.

Romy woke to the sound of bangs on the floor. She rolled over to the side the noise was coming from and seen Marlene in her quidditch gear and broom on the floor.

"We don't have practice today, do we?" Romy asked, trying to remember the practice schedule.

"Wood just decided we had to have an emergency one," Marlene said. "Better get a move on."

As Marlene walked out, Romy jumped up and got ready quickly. She ran down to the common room where the rest of the team were waiting.

"Let's go," Wood said and led them out.

Romy fell beside James and Sirius. The two boys looked how she felt - tired.

"I really don't think there's any need for this," James yawned. "We have a practice scheduled for Wednesday!"

Sirius shrugged, clearly to tired to even pull a sentence together. Romy couldn't help but notice that he hadn't even had time to fix his hair but she liked it.

"Who's the next game even against?" Romy asked.

"Slytherin," Sirius replied. "That's probably why Wood is wanting this."

Romy nodded in response and looked away as Sirius' eyes began to wander. She didn't have time to put make up on and him starting was making her paranoid.

"That. Was. Horrible."

James was lying face down on the pitch, the rest of the quidditch team were in a similar position all around.

"I would like a much better effort on Wednesday night or we will be practicing every free hour we have until match day!" Wood bellowed. "Get it together guys!"

Romy lay on her back and tried to resist the urge to fall asleep. She was beat. She turned to look at how James' current state was only to be met with Sirius' face lying beside her.

"I'm trying to work out what's different about you today," he said, thoughtfully.

"Other than being a sweaty mess?" Romy replied.

"I wouldn't say 'mess' was the correct word," Sirius said. "How did you feel after a sleep anyway? Any better?"

"So-so."

"Not going to elaborate?"

"Nothing to elaborate on."

"You've no make up on. That's what's different."

"Do you want a medal?"

Romy sat up and began to take her gloves off.

"What's wrong with you?" Sirius sat up too.

"You," she said. "I don't get you at all. You let me walk out yesterday!"

"But you said you were going to bed-"

"I wanted you to come after me!"

"How was I meant to know?" Sirius asked, sound exasperated.

"You just should have!"

"Will you two shut up?" James asked from the ground. "I'm trying to die peacefully here and you're lovers tiff is interrupting it!"

"This is certainly not a lovers ti-"

Yet again, Romy found Sirius Black's lips on hers and she couldn't help but kiss back.

"What was that for?" Romy asked, letting a smile escape.

"How else was I meant to shut you up?"

"I-I don't know-"

"Romy, will you just be my girlfriend already?"

Sirius grinned down at her and she could feel her knewws wanting to give way. She didn't know if it was the quidditch practice or the fact Sirius Black finally admitted he wanted her to be his.

"Yes."
