After a week at Hogwarts she left Sirius and went home, She was sort of scared to leave him, she didnt want to. But if she stayed Professor Dumbledore would be suspicious. SHe arrived back at home and was greeted by her dog bounding up to her. Her friend Sewlena was in the kitchen preparing his dinner.

"You're back!" She squeled giving Ashleigh a huge hug.

"And glad to be back too. I missed it here." Ashleigh said. She settled down in her house after her friend had left. This was where she belonged. This was her home, her life. She never thought it would change.

Two years later she was still haveing dreams about Sirius hoping beyond hope that he was ok. She had him visit occasionally and they wrote to each other all the time.

Asheligh was lying in Sirius' arms. He looked at her adoringly. They had just got back from Lily and James' wedding. Love was in the air and they felt that they needed to move to the next step in thier lives. They had countless talks about it and although they were both scared to settle down they wanted to be together for ever.

"Sirius, lets settle down." Ashleigh said.

"Settle down? I thought we talked about this." Sirius said sighing heavily. He didnt want to settle down yet, he loved her but he wanted to be free.

"Sirius, we have been together for about 2 and a half years now." Ashleigh whined.

"But, why settle, we have such a great life now." Sirius said.

"Sirius Orion Black! The only reason you dont want to get married is because you want to be able to go to other girls." Ashleigh yelled at him getting up from his arms and sitting across from him.

"Asheligh that is not the reason... I swear." Sirius sighed again, he wasnt the commitment type.

"Oh really, could have fooled me. You know what, maybe we need time apart. I am going to my Uncle's house! Good bye Sirius Black." She siad leaving his flat. She was gone. And he wanted her back so bad. She didnt come back until a week later, and that was to just get her stuff and leave again. He missed her, this was the longest fight they had ever had. They saw each other at the Order meetings but everytime he tried to talk to her she ignored him or walked away. One night they couldnt escape each other. Lily and James locked them in a room together and took away thier wands.

"Now look what you did!" Ashleigh yelled at him. Everyone in the Order was downstairs listening to everything they said. Even Dumbledore was there to see it.

"I didnt do anything! None of this would have happened if you didnt try to ignore me!" He yelled back.

"I wasnt trying i was! And the only reason i was ignoring you was because you needed SPACE! You and your commitment problems! I am not going to waste my life on you! I am a womana nd a very attractive one at that! I can get any guy i want!" She yelled at him. She was red in the face and he was just as mad and red.

"Dammit Ashleigh! Why are you doing this?!?!" He yelled.

"Because i need to know that you are there for me. I dont need you messin around behind my back!" She yelled at him again.

"I would never mess around behind your back you know that." He said softly.

"Sirius, why wont you marry me?!?!" She said a little softer.

"Because, you are already my weakness..." He said.

"A weakness, when are you going to get it through your head?!?!?! I am not a weakness, he cant hurt me... why would marrying me, make me any more of a weakness to you?" She asked softly now.

"Because, just in case we have a kid. I dont want to be like James' father. I am commited to the Order, a baby and you would make me a little less commited, i dont want to put you in danger." Sirius said lowering his voice exceptionally.

"Sirius, lets get married, i have been dreaming about us having kids for ever, i want to have your kids." Ashleigh said.

"Lets wait until after the war." He said.

"To have kids, but lets get married now." She told him sternly. He started to shake his head no.

"Either that or we... i mean... i have to move on. I'm getting older, who knows when we die?" Ashleigh said softly. He lowered his head and the looked up at her. He kissed her.

"Ok, lets get married, no kids until after the war though." He said and Ashleigh kissed him back.

Ashleigh had been called back to London by Dumbledore. He was contacting all of the old order member and he didnt hesitate to call her. She sold both her businesses and kept her house as a safe get away. She packed what she would need and moved into Grimwald place. Again she would be living with Sirius. She grabbed her dog and cat and her owl. The hampsters had died a year ago. SHe arrived there and was greeted by Sirius' smiling face.

"Hi." She said. she loved looking at him. SOme of his old features came back as she stared at him and she ushered her into the house. It was grima nd dank and she didnt like it. It really sucked. His mother was screaming out insults as she walked in.

"Filty Mudbloods." She screamed and Sirius pulled the curtain over the portrait.

"You need to get rid of that." Ashleigh laughed as she walked in further into the house.

"I am trying. YOu are the first to arrive. The weasleys should arrive soon though." He said and she nodded. He showed her to his room.

"We are sharing a room?" She questioned.

"I didnt think you would mind, but if you perfer another room..." He said. Ashleigh shook her head and she laid down on his bed. it was a long journey, She had to come the muggle way to insure that no one was following. He left her room and a wave of sadness over came her. shleigh felt most the feelings of happiness leave her. Managing a ghost of smile she was sitting on the bed and looking blankly at the wall she didn't see Sirius walk into the room again.

"What's wrong," he asks as he makes his way toward her.

Not even looking at him, "nothing," she dismiss.

Feeling the bed drip under the additional weight "it's not nothing," he growls "you were happy then all the sudden you withdrawal. So tell me."

Groaning "I said it's nothing," pushing up off the bed, two steel like bands whip her around until she was flat on her back staring into the eyes of a very determined Sirius Black.

Pulling her hands, he gently grips them as he places them above her head "now I want the truth. What's wrong?"

Struggling against his hold, he narrows his eyes as he leans forward "I can make this very," kissing the side of her jaw "very," kissing the point just below her ear "hard for you," licking a small patch on her neck before bellowing gently "to not answer me."

Making a trail of kisses on her neck "so Ash," he whispers in her ear, as she releases a softy moan "what's the problem?"

Licking her lips, she tries again to say nothing until Sirius goes back to work, "Voldermort," no reaction, "Kretcher," still no reaction, trying several other things he finally hits it when he whispers "being here." She whimpers trying to move away, smiling snugly "what's the problem with being here?"

Groaning "I dont like change you know that."

Confused "Ashleigh, you have changed immensely since we graduated. why dont you like this change?"

"Icant be who i am, who i am used to being now. I am your wife and i have been but before it wasnt us again in a house. In any house. I am so used to my routine." she mutters. She saw hurt on his face and soon turned to leave. She didnt want to hurt him and she knew she just did.

Laughing Sirius kisses her hard on the mouth before saying "that's not a problem worst comes to worst I'll kick you out of my house and you will be forced to go back home." He said and he kissed her again. Before letting her go to sleep.

Dumbledore was at thier wedding only in case something bad happened. They didnt have a big wedding, Only Remus, Lily, And James could make it. They basically eloped. She didnt care, she was finally Sirius' bride. And on that day after the wedding they partied. And then Lily and James announced that Lily was pregnant and Sirius and Ashleigh were to be named the godparents. They reception party wqas small and beautiful. Sirius didnt want to invite his family and Ashleigh didnt have anyone but her Uncle and Great Great Great grandfather. They all gave their blessing and they went home for thier honeymoon. Sirius carried her through the door and he laid her down on the bed. He started to kiss her on the lips and worked his way down to her neck. He left small butterfly kisses on her neck and kissed her collorbone. He kissed her harder and harder trying to take off her jeans. She didnt want a wedding dress and he didnt wear a suit. it was very simple. He started to unbutton her shirt and after every button he left sweet kisses. He reached her navel and kissed it too, working his way down to her underwear.

Ashleigh woke up and walked quietly down the stairs to the kitchen. There were other people here besides Sirius, she could sense it. She entered the kitchen to find a seated Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, Ginny, Mrs Weasley, Mr. Weasley, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Tonks, Mad-eye Moody, and a very stressed and tired Lupin. Sirius was getting butterbeers for everyone.

"Well, good evening sleepyhead." Sirius said smiling broadly at her. She looked around the table again and she didnt see Harry. Maybe it was just too early in the holidays for him to leave the Dursleys.

"Yeah, its a long journey." She said and she made Lupin stand up. She gave him a huge long hug. She loved him like a very dear friend. He hugged her back. She smiled at Kingsley.

"Nice to see you healthly." He said in his deep voice. He was a big softy and very unlike his appearance.

"Its great to see you again." She said smiling. She hugged him as she released Lupin. She then hugged Mad eye moody. "I missed your ways Moody." SHe said laughing.

"And we missed you." He said sitting back down. She looked at Tonks. She was new but Ashleigh had met her once before.

"You have grown up to be a beautiful woman." Ashleigh said. to her.

"Thanks." She said back slightly blushing.

"Arthur, Molly. You guys are still the best couple i have ever seen." She said giving Molly a hug. She saw all the Weasley kids and her eyes got wide.

"Surely this isnt all of them... right?" Asheligh asked. Molly blushed and shook her head no.

"Of course not dear. Bill, Charlie and P-p-Percy... are not here yet." Molly said on the verge of tears. Ashleigh knew she said something wrong but didnt know what.

"Dont worry dear." Mr. Weasley said disregarding Ashleigh's sorry expression. He knew she didnt know what she did to make Molly so upset.

"Ashleigh..." Sirius said. Ashleigh went over to him and hugged him also. She could smell his natural fragurance and it made her feel more at ease. Her cat came up to her and started to crawl up her leg. It was really a kitten it didnt grow larger than a foot an a half and she loved it. She picked up the cat.

"this is Ashleigh Cox, she is another member of the Order and she will be staying here." Sirius said. Ashleigh looked around and the kids said "hi" she smiled and waved back. If only they knew she thought to herself.

"I got into a fight with your dog again." Sirius said showing his arm which was scratched.

"Awww. COme here." Ashleigh said and she did a hand motion and the scratched healed automatically. All teh kids gasped and she realized that she sould have used a wand instead.

"Where is he anyway. He must be terribly upset. He didnt want to come and my friend Sewena said she would take him but i wanted him to be with me." Ashleigh said disreguarding their gasp.

"He is upstairs wrestling with Kretcher. I think i might take a liking to him." Sirius said chuckling.

"Ross!" Ashleigh yelled and then whistled. A beautiful dog came bounding in. He started to sniff Hermione and then he bypassed her and jumped up onto Ashleigh almost knocking her down. Sirius stood behind her to make sure that she didnt fall onto the floor.

Dumbledore entered the room and gave a small laugh at the site before him.

"Glad to see that you arrived ok." Dumbledore stated walking up to her. She gave him a big hug also. This was the life that she dreamed of, except for the filthy house.

"You know me, Uncle Dumbledore." Ashleigh said and she pulled back. He smiled.

"Well, time to get down to business." Dumbledore said. Molly rushed the kids out and they sat around the table.

"Where is everyone else?" Moody asked.

"Special missions right now." Dumbledore replied. Everyone nodded.

"Ok, Lupin, Moody, TOnks, Kingsley... find some more people to take with you and gather Harry, make a route. Get him in a week." Dumbledore said, they all agreed and then he moved on.

"Arther, try to recruit people hwo would want to be on our side." Dumbledore said.

"Ashleigh, Molly, and Sirius, i need you guys to make this place liveable." Dumbledore said. This hit Ashleigh hard. She was preparing herself to join Volermort as a spy for Dumbledore and he wanted her to clean?

"Um..." She started. But Dumbledore cut her off.

"In a few days i will need you to get ready. Talk to Snape, he needs credit with Voldermort. and bringing you in will help him. I need you to give up everything you have. You have to be prepared." DUmbledore said and she closed her eyes and nodded. Sirius looked at her then to Dumbledore.

"She cant go..." Sirius started but realized that she had to.
