Chapter 6
At dinner that night, Lily and James were all smiles. Sitting across from each other, neither one of them was paying any attention to the food on their plates.
"Hey, Sirius are you free on Wednesday night?" asked James.
"What are you talking about? Of course I'm free; I'll be here. Unless I get another detention," he added as an afterthought.
"You didn't have to do that, you know. I've had lots of detentions; I can handle it," said Raven to Sirius.
"I know you can, but I was the one who started it," said Sirius.
James cleared his throat. "Me and Lily were gonna go have dinner in Hogsmeade. You guys wanna come?"
"When did this happen?" Raven turned to Lily.
Lily blushed. "Right after Potions."
"No, but thanks anyway," said Sirius, answering James's question.
"Well, you don't really have a choice, remember? You promised you'd double with us," said James, slyly.
"We never said that! I'm not going on a date with this animal!" yelled Raven, gesturing toward Sirius.
"Wait a minute here, woman! Who are you callin an animal?" replied Sirius.
"I am not your woman, Sirius! Don't even start!"
"Baby, you should be thankin me! I just saved your ass from detention!"
"Jesus Christ! I'm about ready to go up to that head table and tell McGonagall to give me the detention so I don't hafta hear about it for the rest of my life! Don't you guys see?" she said, turning to James and Lily. "This is what it's gonna be like on your date. Why would you want us to come? We'd bite each other's heads off before we even go the appetizer!"
"Because we think there's-how did you put it, Remus?-passion in your insults," James finished.
"Leave me outta this," said Remus between mouthfuls of food.
"Tell you what - you guys go on one date and we'll stop bugging you about liking each other forever," stated James, convincingly.
Sirius and Raven looked at each other and shrugged. "Promise?" they said.
"Promise."
They finished dinner and headed up to the common room. At 9 o'clock, Sirius made his way down to Professor McGonagall's office, and at 11 o'clock the common room was completely empty. Sirius entered the commons and opened Lucy's portrait.
"So what's the plan?" he said to Raven, who was curled up on her bed like a cat, watching the rainfall on the window.
At the sound of his voice, she sprang up and rolled over on her stomach, pushing herself up with her arms. "What the hell are you doing in here, Sirius? They're gonna know something's up!"
"Relax. I had detention, remember?"
"Okay, I've been thinking about it, and you're gonna hafta kiss me."
Sirius raised his eyebrows and put his hand to Raven's forehead. "Are you feelin okay?"
"No, I feel sick to my stomach, believe me, but it's the only way it's gonna work. They won't believe it if we don't do it. We can't resort to pick-up lines alone because we do that all the time."
"Yeah, you're right. So, what, I walk you to the door and kiss you, just like that?"
"I guess so. Make sure Lily and James are watching, though."
"You're not gonna hit me, are you?" asked Sirius, cringing.
"No, but I'm glad you brought that up, cuz I swear to God, Sirius, if you stick your tongue in my mouth, I will bite it off!"
"Shit, maybe I better not kiss you."
"Why? Can't you control your own tongue?"
"Sometimes it has a mind of its own," answered Sirius, matter-of-factly.
"Okay, maybe we should just forget the whole thing," said Raven, quickly.
"No, no, no! I promise I'll keep it under control."
"You better! Control it, or lose it!"
"So how are we gonna lead up to it?"
"I don't care. Just do it."
"Ooh, aggressive, aren't you?"
"Don't!"
"Don't what?"
"I got it!" she yelled. "We'll get into a fight. You know how James said they think there's passion in our insults? Well, we'll give it to em!"
"Don't follow."
"Sirius, use your brain! Ya know, that's that big lump three feet above your ass? We start fighting and calling each other names, and in the middle of it, you kiss me. Do you get it? It'll make them think they were right the whole time."
"What are we gonna fight about?"
"Oh, Lord! Sirius, we fight all the time! How hard can it be to pick a fight with me?"
"Good point. Are you sure you don't want any tongue?" joked Sirius, winking at her.
"I'm positive, now get the hell out!" said Raven, pushing him towards the door.
"Okay, okay!" Sirius stepped out of the portrait hole.
"Goodnight. Sleep tight. Don't let the bed bugs-" the portrait slammed down in his face, ".bite." Sirius sighed and wandered up to the boys' dormitories. A/N: HOPE YOU LIKED IT. PLEASE, REVIEW!
