~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next day, I did see her like I said I would, but we didn't make any contact. It seemed

as if she was avoiding to even look in my direction. There was no Quidditch practice that

day, so I was pretty sure I wouldn't have a chance to ask how things turned out between

her and Avon.

Matters between us stayed this way for the rest of the week. Even when we had Quidditch

practice she was the first to leave the locker room.

That night, I left the Great Hall particularly early. My friends exchanged concerned glances,

but I finally managed to convince them that there was nothing to worry about, and that I

was just a man who was tired and not hungary. I'm not sure wethter or not they were

convinced, but they let me leave either way.

As I was on my way back to the common room, I bumped into someone as I was turning

a corner.

"Sorry," I muttered, as I looked so I can see to whom I owed this aplology.

It was her. She was clad in muggle clothing, a black turtle neck, with jeans and a cloak

of equal color. It looked as if she was trying to blend in with the night. Her hair was

pulled back into a bun, leaving some strands free to cirle her face.

She continued to look up at me without saying a single word.

"Where to?", I asked her,

She obviously was not returing to the common room.

"I was just going to walk for a while," She answered.

"Mind if I join you?" I asked, hoping with all my heart that she would say..........

"No, not at all."

It was cold outside, cold enough to send a slight chill through your body if you were not

well prepared, as I was not. It was also dark, with only a hint of light left from the day.

We walked in complete silence, until she choose to break it.

"We broke up," She told me in a low voice.

I didn't know what to say. Was there anything to be said? I choose to stay silent.

"He thinks I fancy you," She continued. Deja vu.

"That was the same reason you and Hanna broke up last year, she thought you fancied

me, remember?"

"Well......", I was never so tongue tied before in my entire life. Even with my parents and

Regulus, I always had something in store.

"Remeber when you told me that you only dated her because she was there and I told

you that I knew the feeling......"., Her voice trailed on.

It was as if she was letting out all that she held withing for the past week. The fact that

she was letting it all out with me gave me an overwhelming feeling.

Suddenly, something in my head clicked.

"You were talking about Avon, weren't you?", I concluded.

She nodded her head very lightly, as if I wasn't supposed to see this action.

I stopped and turned her to face me, while keeping hold of her upper arms.

"Where they right?", I asked, already knowing my answer.

"I - I,", She whispered, stuttering.

"You," I whispered back, teasing.

I moved my hands up to her chin and cupped it within them, tilting her head up too look

directly at me.

We were so close now, that I noticed her long, full eyelashs were also curled. Deja vu

one again.

I tilted me my head lower. We were so close now, it was almost as if we were touching.

There was a sensational electric effect. She fluttered her eyes shut, and I went in for the

close. She allowed me entry, responding instantly, as if she had been waiting for this

moment as much as I have.

Her hands held my shoulders as if using them for standing support. My left arm lowered,

encircling her waiste, while my other trailed up and down her back, stroking. She moaned

and shivered in response to this. I suddenly became aware of how cold it was again, and

held her closer in an attempt to warm her and feel her against me. Never have I felt some-

thing so wondeful, it was indescribable. Her arms were around my neck bringing me

even closer...

"Sirius," She gasped, when our lips parted.

We were both breathing rapidly, still clinging to eachother as if our lives depended on it.......

I went up to the dormatory only to find my three friends looking over one peice of parchment

that they disgaurded abruptly upon my arrival. I had a very good idea just what that peice

of parchment was.

"Been spying on me, have you?", I asked, bitterly.

"Don't get the wrong idea, mate," James said quickly, looking at Remus and Peter as if

waiting for support.

"We were only concerend about you," Remus told me, calmly.

"Yea," Pettigrew topped off, in an almost panicked voice.

I sighed, I could never stay mad at them for long. I dropped onto my four poster, using

my hands to support the back of my head where a pillow should be present.

"Er-Padfoot?". James said, in an uncertain voice.

"Hmm,"

"Did you and Millian....."

He didn't seem to know how to get the words out of his mouth.

"If you're asking did we kiss, than the answer is yes," I finally got it over with, for his sake,

and mine.

I sat up and looked overr at the three of them, all of whom were grinning widely.

"How was she?", Peter asked, in an awed voice.

I plopped back down and said in a whisper, "Perfect."

"Uh oh, lookes like another Lily Evans, Wormtail," Remus said, still grinning.

"Very funny," I said sarcasticaly, chucking a pillow at his head and narrowly missing.

"So, what are you going to do now?", James asked, as if trying to get the subject off his

obsession with Lily Evans as quickly as possible.

"I don't know," I shrugged, "I expect I should ask her out."

"Leave that to me," James said, in a 'I can handle' anything voice.

I tried to ask him what he meant, but he only supplied me with a "You'll see" and and an

even wider grin.

The next day, he seemed extremely pleased with himself, even more so than usual.

"I invited her to the Three Broomstickes with us for Butterbeer, this weekend," He finally

decided to inform me.

"Evans?", I asked.

"No you git," He said impatiently, "Millian."

An overwhelming feeling flowed through my entire body.

"How did you......."

"Well if you must know," He interrupted," I went up to her and asked, "Millian, would you

like to have a Butterbeer with me and Sirius at the Three Broomsticks tomorrow' and she

said 'sure, I'd love to'. It was so complicated my friend, I don't know how I got through it

all-"

"I'd like to see you ask Evans out," I shot back.

"After all I've done for you, this is how you repay me," He tried to look awfully hurt.

"Thanks mate," And I truly meant it.
