I should have known from when I first woke up that morning. I remember thinking
that my head was going to explode. "Why did I drink so much?" I thought. I didn't even intend
to drink that night. Like I said, I'm not a heavy drinker.
I hadn't realized there was someone else in the room with me until I heard her
clear her throat. I looked up and there she was, sitting in the arm chair me and Remus used to
share when we lived in that tiny little crap hole together. She had her legs crossed, and looked
quite bored. "Shit." I thought. "Why didn't she leave already?"
"Um...good morning..." I managed, and she chuckled sarcastically.
"Good morning? Its 12:30."
"Yea, well, that's a little too morning for me." I said and rolled over again.
I thought maybe she'd get the hint and hit the road.
"Not so fast, Sunny Jim," she said and crossed the room in about two strides.
"Get your ass up. We're going to get some...brunch, I guess you call it at this hour."
"No." I mumbled and pulled the covers up over my head even more. "Don't wanna."
"Awwwwww! The baby don't wanna!" she said mockingly. I ignored her, and tried
to get back to sleep, but the stupid bitch kept stealing the blankets from me! Finally I just
got up out of exasperation.
"Fine Goddamn it! I'm up!" I yelled and flung the covers back.
"That's a good boy." she said and smiled. She was really quite pretty. That
was really the first time I'd gotten a good look at her, well, at least, when she wasn't
moaning. It was then that I realized something. I didn't even know this pretty
dark haired girl's name.
"Come on Sirius!" she cried, and threw some clothes at me. Well, she knew my
name at least.
"Oh, um...yes, of course..." I trailed off, and she looked at me.
"Are you slow or something?" she asked, and I was taken aback.
"No."
"Well, hurry the fuck up then!" she said and laughed a little. She smiled then,
the smile I would learn to love so much. "I'm glad we decided to do this, Sirius." and walked
out the door, apparently waiting for me on the porch. I fell to the bed then and cried out in
frustration. "DO WHAT?"
