"Come on Sirius. Tell me. We've been friends since playgroup. You can't hide this from me." protested Kendal.

"I love Lily," sighed Sirius.

"What, Lily as in Lily Evans? Lily as in goes out with James, Lily?" asked Kendal.

"Both of the above." groaned Sirius.

"How long?" asked Kendal understandingly.

"Since first year." sighed Sirius.

"Ow six years. That's saying something," said Kendal.

"I know but what should I do? I can't tell James or Lily," said Sirius.

"Come on Sirius you have to tell someone else. Maybe they can help you admit it to Lily." suggested Kendal.

"Maybe. But not now. Maybe it would just be best if I just ignore my feelings for her and go out with someone else." sighed Sirius.

Lily walked down the steps to the Ravenclaw common room. She remembered the way Sirius had looked at her longingly while James had kissed her.

She sighed as she told the portrait the password and passed though the hole.

She saw a group of girls sat in front of the fire, gossiping as usual.

One of the girls broke away and approached Lily.

"Hey Lily, want to come go up to our dorm and paint our nails?" asked the girl.

"Thanks Gaia." smiled Lily as the two walked up to their dorm.

They walked into find a girl sat on her bed doing piles of homework.

"Hey Kayla, what you up to?" asked Lily sitting on her bed as Gaia pulled out her nail varnishes.

"Oh the seventh years homework. They said if I did they'd introduce me to Josh Vellum. I can't wait," sighed Kayla looking up from an essay with bags around her silver eyes.

Lily sighed and picked a blue nail polish from the box and positioned her self at her desk.

"Kayla you know their only using you," said Gaia taking some silver nail polish.

" I know but I'll do anything to meet him." smiled Kayla from where she was back at writing another essay.

Lily rolled her emerald eyes and went back to painting her nails.

"So if you are going to ask someone out to forget about lily, whom are you going to ask?" asked Kendal leaning back in her chair.

"I don't know," said Sirius.

"Hm I've a simple solution. You ask out the next girl who comes through the portrait hole," said Kendal.

"Oh okay I guess it's worth a shot." sighed Sirius.

The portrait hole opened and in walked Sahara Weasley (A/N she is Arthur's sister) her long ginger hair flowing around her shoulders.

Sirius gaped and Kendal stepped on his foot to remind of the point.

"Hey Sahara!" called Kendal.

"Hey Kendal I was looking for you." smiled Sahara throwing her bag onto a sofa.

"Erm Sirius wants to ask you something," said Kendal.

"Ok." said Sahara pulling up a seat.

"I was just wondering if you would.... Erm like to Erm...go out some time?" asked Sirius.

Sahara smiled warmly at him.

"Of course I want to go out with you Sirius. Is tonight OK?" asked Sahara taking his hand.

Kendal smiled and mouthed at Sahara 'thank you'.

"Tonight would be great," said Sirius coming out of his daze.

"I'll meet you here tonight." smiled Sahara getting up.

She made her way around the table and kissed Sirius on the lips before going up to her dorm.
