One Kiss From You
Author's Notes: I liked the previous chapter…anyway…I wonder if Sirius will ever get Desiree back? Hmm? Find out here (or not). And if you have the songs featured in this chapter, I think you should play it as you go on. I think it's cute…hehe!
Chapter Six – A Songficish Chapter
It has been days and finally, Desiree was out of the Hospital Wing and back on her feet. While walking down the hallway, a group of Ravenclaw boys were chatting. Suddenly, a cute blonde guy came up to Desiree, blocking her way.
"Hey Desiree" he flashed a smile
"Hey Brian…"
Brian Moore was the most popular guy in school. Girls fainted at his sight.
"So…I heard that no one is taking you to the Yule Ball, and that's tonight"
"Yes…"
"So…I was wondering that would you like to go with me?"
Of all the pretty girls in school, why would Brian pick her?
"Sure…" Desiree said smiling a bit
"Great…meet you by the Great Hall at 6:45"
Brian smiled again and walked away, giving Desiree a peck on the cheek.
"You seriously need to go with Desiree to the Yule Ball!" James said to Sirius in the Common Room, "I'm going with Lily, Remus is going with Ingrid, Peter is not here for the holidays and you! You got a Ravenclaw!"
"I can't change my date! I already promised *Olivia* that I'll go with her!" Sirius cringed at the name
James gave up, "Fine! Go with her! And you better get Desiree back!"
"I'm already planning to"
"How?"
"You'll see…"
At 6pm, Lily, Ingrid and Desiree were getting ready for the Ball. Lily had on a strapless blue gown with sequins around the hem of her gown. Ingrid stood by the full-length mirror with her white gown, similar to a wedding gown. Desiree, on the hand, had a hanging black gown. Some strips of her hair were all in braids. She looked at herself and smiled.
"Ready?" Lily stood by the door and they nodded.
Lily opened the door. At the end of the stairs were James and Remus in tuxedos. James gawked at the sight of them, especially Lily. Lily smiled at him and giggled as she reached James' side. Remus stared at Ingrid as she walked down the stairs.
"Des, who's your date?" James asked
"Uh…I don't know"
"Desiree…" James wanted to know and gave her the 'tell-me-now' look
"Fine…it's Brian Moore, from Ravenclaw"
"Omigod…" Ingrid muttered
"WHAT!? Brian is a 'kiss-me-or-I'll-dump-you' guy…watch out for him, and I don't want you going to the Ball with him"
"James…I'm a big girl already, I can take care of myself now" and Desiree walked out of the Common Room.
Desiree walked to the Great Hall and saw Brian waiting for her. Brian saw her and smiled. Desiree felt her cheeks go pink. She walked towards him and smiled.
"Nice…black, very dark…shall we?" he held out his hand and both came walking down the red carpet. They sat down on an empty table and waited for the other people. Dumbledore stood up and made an announcement.
"Welcome to the Yule Ball and Christmas Eve. The Ball will last until 1:30am only. Food from the kitchen will be served. A dance floor is empty at the moment, do dance and may I present the band that will be playing music with us for the night. Introducing…The Freaky Frolics Band! And have fun!"
Three women and four men stood on the stage and the music started. Food appeared in front of the people and instantly ate. After a while, some people filled the dance floor. Desiree looked up and saw Remus and Ingrid dancing.
~Don't be so quick, to walk away (dance with me)
I wanna rock your body, please stay (dance with me)
You don't have to admit you wanna play (dance with me)
Just let me rock you, till the break of day (dance with me)~
~Got time but I don't mind, just wanna rock you girl
I'll have whatever you have, c'mon just give it a whirl
See I've been watching you, I like the way you move
So go ahead girl, just do that ass shaking thing you do~
~So you grab your girls, and you grab a couple more
And you all come meet me in the middle of the floor
Said the air is thick, it's smelling right
So you pass to the left, and you sail to the right~
~Don't be so quick, to walk away (dance with me)
I wanna rock your body, please stay (dance with me)
You don't have to admit you wanna play (dance with me)
Just let me rock you, till the break of day (dance with me)~
~I don't mean no harm, just wanna rock you girl
Make a move, but be calm, let's go give it a whirl
See it appears to me, you like the way I move
I'll tell you what I'm gonna do, pull you close and share my groove~
~So you grab your girls, and you grab a couple more
And you all come meet me in the middle of the floor
Said the air is thick, it's smelling right
So you pass to the left, and you sail to the right~
~Don't be so quick, to walk away (dance with me)
I wanna rock your body, please stay (dance with me)
You don't have to admit you wanna play (dance with me)
Just let me rock you, till the break of day (dance with me)~
~Talk to me, boy (no disrespect, I don't mean no harm)
Talk to me, boy (I can't wait to have you in my arms)
Talk to me, boy (hurry up, coz you're taking too long)
Talk to me, boy (better have you naked by the end of this song~
The song ended with everyone applauding to the Freaky Frolics. Dumbledore came up to the stage again.
"Next, we'll have a performer with us. Our very own, Sirius Black from Gryffindor!"
Everyone cheered for him, especially his fellow Marauders. Desiree sat there, wide eyed.
"Something wrong?" Brian asked and Desiree shook her head
"Before I begin, I would like to say something. You know the feeling when you're having a huge crush on a girl you just met? And the person doesn't love you back, even though how many times you tried to get the girl's attention, she doesn't seem to notice you? This happened to me, except, I promised her that'll I love her. But I guess the promise was never fulfilled."
"I wonder what girl he's talking about…" Brian said. He obviously didn't know about Desiree and Sirius.
"I have no idea" Desiree shuddered, not looking at the table where Sirius sat
"You can say that I'm a liar and an idiot of not having that promise fulfilled. Well, you can say you're right. She yelled at me that she doesn't want to see me anymore, but I know I'll get her back. You may say, "yeah right. Sirius doesn't have a chance on getting her back" or you may think, "Whoever this girl is, she won't forgive him". Maybe they're right. But I hope she understands…that I still love her"
Desiree looked at James and James looked back, giving her a huge smile. She looked away and saw Olivia smiling like an idiot.
"These series of songs, is dedicated to the girl that I'll only love…"
Please don't say my name…please don't say me name! Desiree thought
"Desiree Potter"
Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!! She wanted to hit herself
Eyes went straight to her. Some people giggled and some were saying, 'awwww' and others, well, they were smiling.
"You dated him?" Brian cried in disbelief
"Y-yeah…"
Brian stayed silent. He just nodded and watched Sirius do his thing. The lights dimmed and he began.
~Living on the edge out of control
And the world just won't let me slow down
But in my biggest picture, was a photo of you and me
Girl you know I tried, I work hard to provide all the material
Things I thought that would make you happy~
~I'm confused can you make me understand
Coz I tried to give you the best of me
I thought we were cool, maybe I was blind
But never took time to see~
~Can you help me? Tell me what you want from me
Can you help me? Tell me why you want to leaveBaby help me, without you my whole world is falling apart
And I'm going crazy, life's a prison when you're in love alone~
Some girls were already crying. The music ended, and another tune came up. To Sirius' surprise, Desiree walked up the stage and began singing
~"Never look back," we said
How was I to know, I'd miss you so?
Loneliness up ahead, emptiness behind
Where do I go?~
~And you didn't hear
All my joy through my tears
All my hopes through my fears
Did you know, still I miss you somehow~
~From the bottom of my broken heart
There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know
You were my first love, you were my true love
From the first kisses to the very last rose
From the bottom of my broken hear
Even though time may find me somebody new
You were real love, I never knew love
Till there was you, from the bottom of my broken heart~
~"Baby," I said, "Please stay"
Give our love a chance, for one more day
We could have worked things out
Taking time is what love's all about~
~But you put a dart
Through my dreams, through my heart
And I'm back where I started again
Never thought it would end~
[Chorus]
~You promised yourself
But to somebody else
And I'm back where I started again
Still I wish you were here~
[Chorus]
~"Never look back," we said
How was I to know, I'd miss you so~
Desiree finished and looked at Sirius with tears in her eyes.
"Never thought you could sing…" both said in unison and Desiree left the stage
