Chapter Four - Falling
Madison yawned as she strolled into the Great Hall the next morning, beside Magsy and Zara. As they seated themselves at the Ravenclaw table, Madison took a piece of toast but dropped it as Zara gasped.
"What?" said Madison, angrily, scanning the floor trying to find her lost breakfast.
"Sirius!" said Zara in a hoarse whisper, "Look at Sirius!"
Madison and Magsy whipped around. Sirius was sat alone at the Gryfindor table digging out ice from the jug of water next to him, so he could hold it against his eye, which was bruised and purple.
"I'm going over there." said Madison,
"It'll be too obvious!" hissed Magsy, grabbing her arm "If you go over and coo over him Remus will now...for sure!"
"I don't care!" said Madison defiantly, wrenching her arm from her sister's grip. As Madison hurried away Magsy rolled her eyes.
"Sirius," said Madison timidly, "What happened?"
Sirius looked up at her, his dark puppy eyes, big and sad.
"He hit me." he said, throwing a glance down the table at Remus.
"Remus? No." said Madison, "He wouldn't."
"He did, just before throwing me out of the dorm...wearing just a towel."
Madison's eyes glazed over and her cheeks redened as she thought of Sirius wearing just a towel. But snapped back to reality and sad sadly.
"Oh Sirius...this is all my fault,"
"No, don't worry...I was the one who came onto you..." he said rubbing his face, "But you looked so beautiful and...I always see you and Remus...and I can't help but want what he's got..."
"Well, I think your...handsome to...in a bruised sort of way." she said, and they both chuckled.
"I have to get to Potions...but I'll see you later, okay?" she said getting up and giving him a warm smile. And as he smiled back she walked from the Hall, not bothering to talk to Remus...It would only confuse the matter in hand.
* * * * *
A cold chill ruffled their hair as Remus and Madison strolled around the edge of the lake. They weren't holding hands like
they usually did, Remus had just finished telling Madison about what Sirius had said last night in their dormitory and Madison was lost for words.
She pulled her scarf tighter around her neck as she said, "Oh Remus...I can't believe this happened...I'm-I'm so sorry..."
"Yeah, well...look I know it was Sirius's fault and I don't blame you at all." He said smiling slightly, as he took her hand.
"Look, it wasn't just Sirius it was-" she began, trying to prostest with him, how could he lay the blame completely on Sirius? She had kissed him back, she hadn't pulled away, and if Remus understood that, maybe he would break up with her and she wouldn't have to be the bad person who pulled her boyfriend's best friend before dumping him.
"No, no-" said Remus almost sharply, "Let's just try and forget it...It's cold and I have to study for a Potions test, let's get back up to the castle,"
She couldn't say anything. It was obvious Remus just wanted to protect their relationship...he couldn't accept she had done anything wrong. He knew if he laid the blame on someone else it would stop any chance of putting their relationship in danger.
They walked hand in hand back up to the castle, with a small kiss they parted at the marble staircase and Madison walked down a corridor, along a thin passage, behind a tapestry, up a winding flight of stairs, and muttered "Manticore," before strolling through a doorway hidden by a portrait and into the warm Ravenclaw Common room.
"How'd it go?" said Magsy as Madison flopped into a blue armchair next to her.
"Terrible." said Madison kicking of one shoe.
"Was it hard?" said Zara, looking pitiful.
"Well...I might be...I don't know, I didn't do it." Madison replied flinging off her other shoe.
"What?" chorused Magsy and Zara.
"He knows, about me kissing Sirius! Sirius told him last night and thats why Sirius has got a black eye...Remus punched him..." she hid her face in her hands and mummbled, "It's all my fault."
"Here's a suggestion," said Magsy flicking through a heavy black book, "Dump Sirius, not Remus..."
"No," said Madison miserably, "I'm falling for Sirius...and falling out with Remus."
"Oh god," muttered Magsy, "Make up your mind."
* * * * *
