*~*~Secrets Revealed and Acceptance~*~*

Kat walks slowly down the main hallway torwards the great oak doors in the Entrance Hall. She waits by the door for Sirius.
"Are you going to tell me why I was supposed to be here. I mean if this is between you and Snape, what's the point in me being here?" Sirius asked.
"You'll soon see, Mr. Black" came a cold voice from behind them.
Kat flinched when she heard Snape's voice. "I don't know why you're trying to ruin me but I'll get you back for this."
Sirius raised a brow at her.
"Shut up and follow me you ungrateful brat." Snape said. With that, he walked out of the door and down the steps with Kat and Sirius at his back.

Alex watched the group from his dorm window. There was a knock at his door and he said, "Come in."
Kilia walked in and stood next to him, scowling at the group outside.
"Hey Kilia. What do you want?" he asked.
"I want your help. We have got to stop Kat before she gets herself hurt."
"She won't get hurt. She's just like that. Trust me, she knows what she is doing."
"I hope your right but I still want a back-up plan."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Damnit.' she thought, 'I didn't want him to find out this way. Will this change our relationship? Oh I hope not.'
"Well, Kat." sneered Snape, "Are you using the potion or not?"
"I'd as Hell better." she said quietly.
Sirius stared at her in shock. His face went pale. "You....you're....a..a..a...werewolf?!" he said. Before Kat could answer, he passed out.
"Well, that's not the reaction I expected." she said. Snape handed her the Wolfsbane Potion. "Yuck. I hate this stuff." Then she drank it in one gulp.
"Well, it's nearly midnight. Three minutes. I should get Mr. Black to the hospital wing immediately." Snape glared at her.
"Sure whatever." was all Kat could say. Her eyes had never left Sirius' still body. "Wait, can't you bring him back to consiousness? I mean I know a spell....."
"Yes, there is a spell, but do you really think I would do it for you?"
"No but I can do it." And with a wave of her hand and a murmured word, Sirius woke up.
"Wha.....what happened?" he said groggily.
Kat bent down next to him and said quietly, "You passed out."
"I did?"
"Yes."
"Mr. Black, you suffered quite a shock there. Are you ready to resume life and get over it?" Snape said cooly.
Shock reappeared on Sirius' face. "So, it's true then?"
Kat nodded. "I was going to tell you but I kinda couldn't."
He eyed her. Then suddenly, she sat straight up and stood, then took off torwards the forest. Sirius stared after her.
"Kinda shocking, isn't it, Black?" Snape said, amused.
"I'm over it." Sirius said flatly. He got up and headed back torwards the castle without a backwards glance.

The next morning, Kat was nowhere to be found. Sirus walked over to the Slytherin table and sat next to Kilia.
"What do you want, Black?" she sneered.
"Do you have any idea if Kat came back to the castle anytime last night or this morning?" he asked.
"Don't worry. She'll be back by our third class."
He got up and walked back to his own table. The rest of the Gryffindors stared at him.
"What?" he said looking around when he sat down in between Blake and Sean.
"You were at the Slytherin table and no one tried to hurt you." Sean said.
"So?"
"You know how Slytherins are! They're monsters. You can't become friends with them." Blake said wearily.
"Why do any of you care about who I'm friends with?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The day continued until finally, classes were out. Sirius hurried to the great hall for dinner and saw Kat laughing and talking at the Slytherin table.
She turned and smiled at him and motioned for him to come over. Kilia said something and they both burst into a mad fit of giggles. He grinned and slid in next to Kat with Kilia on his other side.
"Well, I see your back." his smile widened.
"Yep, I'm back!. The only thing that's different is that I'm really hyper right now." she said, as if she was talking about the weather.
He laughed and kissed her. 'I have to talk to you.' he thought. She looked at him and one look in her eye told him that she had heard that.
