*~*~No Named Face~*~*
Kat doen't know how long she slept but she knows she had missed her classes for that day. Kilia was busy preparing to go to the Halloween Feast. The room shined and sparkled. It was actually clean.
Kat got out of her bed and went into the bathroom and watched Kilia fuss over her lipstick.
"I don't know why you wear make-up. It's a waste of money." Kat said coldly.
"So, you're finally awake. Sirius has started to call you Sleeping Beauty." she said turning to look at her.
"Ha ha. Very amusing. I'd better go get dressed, then you can do my make-up." she said, not amused at all.
"I thought it was a waste of money." Kilia scowled at her.
"I didn't buy it so why not?" That made them both start laughing.
"Okay! You win. I'll do your make-up but I'm not going to do your hair for you." She struggled to say, holding her side that still hurt from laughing.
Kat grinned and left the bathroom to get dressed. She put on her cleanest black robe and then grabbed her brush and put her hair into a tight bun at the back of her head. Satisfied, she went back into the bathroom and waited for Kilia to finish doing her make-up and then for Kilia to finish her's.
When they were both satisfied with how they looked, they headed down torwards the feast. The Entrance Hall was packed with student waiting to go into the Great Hall.
They waited by the top of the steps leading up from the dungeons. Sirius saw them and came torwards them.
"Hey. It's about time you woke up. I was getting worried that you poisoned yourself." he said. They all started laughing.
She smiled. "I wouldn't do that. Though, it's a good idea. Thanks." They laughed more.
Finally, the doors to the Great Hall swung open and everyone filed in and sat at their normal house tables. 'Strange,' Kat thought, 'Sirius sat at the Gryffindor table instead of with me.'
"Kilia, have you noticed that Sirius seems to be hiding something?" she asked, staring across the room at Sirius.
"No, why?" Kilia answered.
"Nothing." Kat continued to watch Sirius until Dumbledore anounced that the feast was over and the Halloween Ball was to begin in an hour.
Kat left the Entrance Hall and went to the secret room. She sat in the big armchair staring into the fire. Sirius walked in and looked at her.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Do I look okay to you?" she said cooly.
"No, you don't look okay. What's wrong?" he asked.
"It's none of your damned business and you wouldn't care anyways." she didn't know why she was being such a bitch but she just wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone, exspecially Sirius.
Sirius gave her a strained look then left Kat alone to sink into nocturnal silence.
Her heart felt heavy. What if she didn't have a heart? Maybe it was just some big black hole, full of evil and unable to love. 'No,' she thought, 'I won't let that happen.'
She got up and left to join Kilia at the ball. She found Kilia talking to a cute fifth-year boy.
"Hey, Kat. This is Sean. He's one of Sirius' friends." she said smiling at her.
"Hey." she nodded torwards Sean. "Have you seen Sirius? I can't find him."
"Yeah. Last I heard he had locked himself in his dorm demanding not to be disturbed. You can go up and talk to him. I'm sure he'd stop whatever he's doing to talk to you." he smiled wearily.
"Thanks." she muttered.
She headed torwards the Gryffindor Common Room. She stopped and told the password to the Fat Lady then entered and was in front of Sirius' closed door. She didn't realize how fast she had gotten there.
She knocked and heard a loud crash come from inside the door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sirius went back to his dorm after leaving Kat claiming he wanted to be alone and asking his friends not to disturb him. Then he layed down on his bed and buried his face into the pillow. He wondered why Kat had been acting like that.
There came a knock at the door and he fell out of bed. He opened the door and saw Kat looking at him.
"I'm sorry....." she started, but she couldn't finish. Sirius had pulled her into his arms and buried his face into her hair, which had fallen down while she ran up all the flights of stairs.
He pulled her into his dorm and shut the door, relocking it, and sat holding her on his bed for a while before he spoke.
"It's okay." was all he said to her. She started to cry.
"It's not okay, Sirius. I was horrible to you and I feel bad and I'm sorry." she blurted out.
He just held her closer. What was there to say. 'Yeah, you were a bitch to me and you deserve to feel bad but it's okay'? 'Hell no!' he thought. 'That would make her feel worse.'
After a while, she calmed down and looked at him.
