Chapter Two
They all grew to be great friends over their first few years at Hogwarts, and also found out a great deal about each other, but there were still secrets to be found out; all in good time though. It was the end of their fourth year and it was the summer holidays.
Lena was walking down the front path when she saw her brother's friends walking up to the house, she looked around she could apperate well because she wasn't old enough and she didn't know how too either; she had know chose but to stay and say hello.
She smiled slightly at them as she walked up to them both, Bellatrix was smiling at her for some reason she never really liked it when she saw her smiling it meant that she was up to something or was going to tell you something that you didn't like but of course she did.
"Hi, how's thing's?" Bellatrix asked.
"Not to bad I guess." Lena answered, as she eyed Severus who was smiling at her in an odd sort of way.
"Did you hear about Sirius, he ran away from home." Bellatrix announced. "Stupid mud-blood lover."
"He's not stupid, and don't call people that." Lena told her. "He's inside, I'm going."
Lena glared at them both before she walked off, leaving two not very happy Slytherin's behind her. She looked back over her shoulder just before she turned the corner, he was still staring at her; but why?
Well she wasn't that bothered at the moment, as she made her way to James' house; it was near by in the next village so she could walk there. It took her about fifteen minutes to walk; well only because she walked so fast. She walked up the front path and knocked on the door, she only had to wait a minute before Mrs Potter answered it smiling at her.
"Hello Lena, it seems as though I have a full house today." Mrs Potter said brightly.
"Oh, I can come back if..." Lena started.
"No, no come in; I'm sure they'll be glad to see you there up stairs you know where." Mrs Potter told her stepping a side to let her.
"Thank you." Lena said smiling as she went inside.
She went up stairs and along the landing and knocked on the bedroom door at the end.
"Mum, we don't need anything else." James shouted through the door.
Lena smiled to herself as she pushed open the door, and they all groped at her because they were so surprised to see her there.
"Hey guys, but James I'm not your mum as you can tell." Lena told him smiling.
"Of course she isn't, look at her; come and sit next to me then if you're staying." Sirius told her as he smiled at her and patted the empty space next to him on the bed.
"That's alright I think I'll sit next to Remus, at lest I'll know that he won't pounce on me." Lena said as she walked over to him and sat down on the floor beside him.
He smiled shyly at her as she sat down next time to him, while she smiled brightly at him. She always loved being around him, there was something about him that she just couldn't put her figure on.
"Well if you're sure, but you know it's always the quiet ones who are more likely to do something like that." Sirius told her.
"Well who said that I wouldn't mind if Remus pounced me?" Nissa teased, but Remus went bright red.
Sirius smiled at her, but there was something that wasn't right; why weren't she flirting with him, everyone else did so why weren't she? Not that he fancied her or anything, well she was pretty and everything; but it just seemed odd to him that she didn't like him but liked Remus instead.
"So, where are you living now then?" Lena asked him bringing him out of his thoughts.
"What, how do you know that?" Sirius asked her.
"Bellatrix and Severus, they're round mine right now; she told me of course." Lena answered. "So where are you living, here?"
"Yeah he is." James answered. "We'll be like brothers, you know living together."
"Isn't it great, I spend more time here anyway; and I'll be just up the road from you." Sirius told her smiling.
Lena smiled back at him, not completely sure at his meaning that he'll just be up the road. She had seen him flirting with girls before, most of them fancied him well she could see why he was very handsome; but she just didn't get the same feeling as she did for Remus, but he didn't seem to feel the same way towards her.
Summer went by quit quickly; Sirius and James went round to see both Lena and Marcus; though even Marcus had picked up on Sirius' strange behaviour towards his sister.
On the train back to Hogwarts now that the summer was finally over, Marcus decided to talk to Sirius; and didn't care much that the other's over heard either.
"So Sirius, what are you up too?" Marcus asked him.
"What are you talking; we haven't even got there yet; so how can I be up to anything?" Sirius asked half smiling at him, wondering if he was up to something already.
"My sister, Lena." Marcus said.
"Yeah, what about her?" Sirius asked.
"Is she going out with Snape?" Peter asked suddenly, making them all look at him thinking that he had gone mad.
"What...does...that...mean?" Marcus asked through gritted teeth.
"Well...O saw her before...she was well it looked kind of like they were kissing from where I was stood." Peter answered quickly." But maybe I was wrong."
"Of course you're wrong." Sirius told him firmly. "Why would she go out with that greasy haired git, when she can have me?"
Both Remus and Marcus looked at him when he said this, Remus didn't looked that pleased that he knew that's how Sirius liked her; and neither was Marcus.
"Stay away from her, I know how you are with girls; I don't want you doing that to my sister." Marcus told him. "I mean it, stay away from her"
"What, you wouldn't be bothered if it was anyone else would you?" Sirius told him.
"But it isn't anyone else is it, it's my sister." Marcus told him, just as the door slide open.
"So why are you talking about me?" Lena asked smiling at them all,
"Are you going out with Snape?" Sirius demanded standing up.
Lena just stared at him, and then smiled. "I don't believe it, how could that have gotten around so fast?"
"So it's true then?" Marcus said standing up beside Sirius.
"Well, he asked me out; but I never really gave him an answer." Lena told them.
"You can't." Marcus told her.
"I agree; he's a Slytherin." Sirius agreed. "That stupid greasy haired git, he's got no right asking you out."
"What, why not; he can if he wants too." Lena told him. "Its not as though I'm going out with anyone is it?"
"Then go out with me." Sirius said suddenly, making them all look at him.
"What?" Lena said trying to stop herself from laughing. "Don't be so silly, you're only saying that so I won't go out with Severus; and from all the other girls you've gone out with. Truth me when I say this; I'm not your type and we both know it."
"What you're a girl." Sirius said.
"Wow that says a lot doesn't it?" Lena said.
"And you're pretty as well." Sirius told her.
"What ever, I'll see you later; hopefully you would have come to your senses by then." Lena said as she turned round and walked back out.
Well Sirius still didn't come round, and he still wanted her to go out with him; though he was only glad about one thing and that was she hadn't said yes to Snape, but neither had she said yes to him.
***
Sirius had been going at Lena all day, and for the last part she had taken up to avoiding him completely; it was as though he couldn't take a hint that she wasn't interested. It was late the night of the full moon, and all she wanted to do was get away; quickly.
"Lena wait up!" Sirius shouted down the corridor as he ran to catch up to her. "Why are you avoiding me?"
"Why are you following me?" Lena asked him stopping completely making him run past her, and then having to come back on himself.
"Because you won't give me an answer." Sirius told her.
"What, I've already given you an answer; more then once." Lena told him firmly, unable to believe his nerve.
"Well not the one I want to hear." Sirius said smiling at her. "Come on Lena, it won't hurt will it?"
Lena looked at him for a moment, and then a shooting pain shot through her whole body she had to get out of there and away from him.
"Well, why don't you let me think about it; and I'll get back to you." Lena suggested, trying to smile back at him.
"Well that's better, but...are you alright you've gone very pale." Sirius said as he stepped closer, but she stepped away from him.
"Please just leave me alone, go away." Lena told him and she turned to leave, but he wasn't having it and grabbed hold of her arm to stop her from leaving. "Please Sirius, you don't understand..."
Sirius still had over of her arm as she doubled over in pain, and her body started to change; fur started to grow all over it. He let go of her and stumbled backwards trying to think straight, as she changed into a werewolf before his very eyes.
She fell onto all fours, and then howled as she turned round to face him; Sirius had backed up against the wall. She slowly walked towards him, but before she reached him he said something under his breath and he changed into a large black dog.
She looked him over, as if wondering what to do with him; as he stepped slowly forward and nudged her softly to follow him outside; which she did because she was quit taken with him.
They all grew to be great friends over their first few years at Hogwarts, and also found out a great deal about each other, but there were still secrets to be found out; all in good time though. It was the end of their fourth year and it was the summer holidays.
