"Wrongly Accused"
Chapter 3!

The next day we went to Platform 9 3/4... Remus had gotten there before us and saved our seats on the train and was sitting next to Eve Star, the girl that I supposedly "crushed" on last year. James, Remus, Peter and I sat together on the express as we usually did.

"We'll beh arriving in a little while, yer might want to put on yer robes." A fat little boy stumbled into the cabin, and he must have been Hagrid.
"Thanks for the tip man." Sirius laughed. "I almost forgot!"
"Heh" the chubby kid laughed as he bounced out of the cabin.
"I know what he's getting for his birthday." Eve giggled.
"What?" James pondered.
"A remembrall?" Remus guessed.
"You got it." Eve laughed.
"Hey!" Sirius struck back. "I don't need one!"
"Sure ya do, do you insist on your friends being your daily planner?" Eve spoke.

James and Remus burst out laughing at her comment, and as usual, Peter is always clueless in the story. Sirius just sunk back into his seat not knowing what other comeback he could think of. Soon the train reached Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. All of the students stepped onto the school grounds, whether it was their first time or if they were there the previous school year. Everyone crowded into the Great Hall later to feast and watch the sorting of the first-years.

Eve sat at the Slytherin table next to Severus and her friends and his friends, while I sat with James (who was sitting with Lily...), Remus, and Peter (*authors note: who no one loves! ^^;;). I found myself keep looking back to the table. I couldn't help it.
I felt like I was looking at a Veela. Snape turned around and saw me staring at her for most of the time as just glared his greasy glare from across the tables.

---

Later I found myself in the hallway in a fight with Snape.

"I see you've found yourself a new beau." Snape glared greasily. "You know, you shouldn't be stealing other people's stuff.
"Oh, and I suppose she's your property huh? You don't own her Snape."
"Yeah, well she's my girlfriend." Snape yelled punched his shoulder.
"Sirius, PLEASE don't pick a fight." said Remus, but he was just ignored anyways.
"Oh yeah- Well-" Sirius punched him back harder. "You hit like a girl"
"You're one to talk-" Snape glared.

Snape punched Sirius, Sirius kicked Snape, Snape poked Sirius, and Sirius smacked Snape until there was a big brawl.

"Last time I checked I wasn't." Eve stood between both of them with her hands up to the side to keep them apart.
"Whoa, she's good." James watched.
"Grr..." Sirius twinged.
"Ow..." Snape glared as he held his arm. "I'll get you..."
"You're an a-" Sirius was cut off. "Hey, what are you doing?!"

Snape pulled Eve towards him.

"Eek! Get offa me!" Eve yelled.
"I thought you loved me..." he breathed hardly from his brawl with Sirius.

Eve jump kicked him to the floor easily. Both Snape and Sirius were stunned.

"Don't go barking up the wrong tree, Mr. Black." They were soon broken up by one of the female teachers. "Can one of you explain WHAT is going on?" she tapped her foot impatiently.

"Uh oh..." Sirius smiled innocently as Severus did.

Sirius and Snape just looked at each other not having a clue what to do next.

"I can explain." Eve brushed her hair out of her face. "It's a play we've been working on over the summer."
"What?!" Sirius and Snape sat there clueless.
"And what is this here...uh... 'play' called?" she questioned.
"Um... 'The Fighting Trio'". She improvised.
"What is it about?" she asked again.
"It's about these two men who both try to win the love of a lady, but only one is sucessful in doing so, and the other one is simply thrown back into the dust of the Earth." She smiled. "It is truly a beautiful story."

*ahem* Eve nudged them both in the sides. "Right?"
"Yes, and it is truly uh...." Sirius was nugded by Severus. "A wonderful peice of work."
"I agree. It truly captures the true esscence of love." Severus spoke slyly.
"Oh how I do enjoy love stories!" the teacher bounced away. ^ ^ "Aah! Love..."
"Yep, here I come again to save your arses once more." Eve kissed Sirius' cheek and skipped down the hall singing.

They all headed back to their common rooms.Sirius was left red-faced in the hallway.

"She's a work of art." Remus bobbed his head.
"(Weird)" Peter thought.
"She rocks!" ^ ^ James laughed.
"Two in one package. She's beautiful and she kicks butt." Sirius sighed with hearts in his eyes.
