Chapter 19 - October 21st
"And there's another 10 points to Gryffindor. James Potter, everyone," Remus said into the microphone, as commentator for the Quiddich match. "And- oh, look at Raven! Newest player for Gryffindor, Raven McKinnon's just gone into a straight dive, and. oh, that was a close one! McKinnon was nearly knocked off her broom by a bludger from Malfoy. Oh, that'll teach him! Gryffindor beater, Sirius Black, retaliates a bludger at Malfoy's broom, cracking it in half. Raven's still after the snitch. Slytherin's seeker is trying desperately to catch up, but so far he's eating her dust. She's getting closer. closer. closer. SHE'S GOT IT! IT'S OVER, FOLKS! RAVEN MCKINNON CATCHES THE SNITCH! GRYFFINDOR WINS 220 TO 30!"
"God, Padfoot, are you as good in bed as you are at Quiddich?" teased Raven as they were all bringing their bags down to the common room, getting ready to leave for Raven's cottage.
"Better!"
"Yeah," she replied, rolling her eyes at him.
"Man, we were awesome, weren't we?" asked James.
"Truly," agreed Remus.
"How're we getting to your cottage, Ray?" asked Lily.
"My uncle had it connected by floo."
"Oh, good!"
"Did you tell Dumbledore?" asked Peter.
"Yep. We're all set," said Raven, picking up the floo powder.
One by one they all arrived at Raven's cottage. "Wow. Nice," said Sirius.
"Thanks. Let me give you the tour." Raven lead Sirius and Lily out of the living room where the fireplace was and into a bright blue room with a queen size bed. "This is my room."
Sirius walked in a laid himself and his bag on the bed. "So, I'm in here, then?"
"No, Lily is," she said, taking his bag and throwing it out into the hallway.
"Hey!" he lunged after it. "There's valuable stuff in here!" He scooped it up off the floor.
"Like what? Your little black book?" she teased.
Sirius scoffed and pretended to be offended. "I threw that away when I met you."
"Sure you did." She led them down the hall to the next bedroom, which had bunk beds. "Um. you guys can fight over the bunks, or the last room has a full bed, and then there's the futon on the porch."
Sirius jumped up to the top bunk and proclaimed, "I like being on top!"
"That's great, Sirius," said Raven. "I'll show you the lake." They went back into the hall and then into the living room again. Raven then led them into the porch and out onto the deck.
"Wow, it's beautiful," said Lily as the lake came into view.
"Not without one of those, it isn't," said Raven, pointing down to her purple and yellow jetski. They continued walking down the steps to the beach and out onto the dock. Remus, James, and Peter were waiting in the boat.
"Wanna show them the lake?" asked James.
"Sure she does!" said Sirius, lifting Raven into the boat.
"Dammit, I hafta go get the keys!" she said, getting out of the boat and running back up the dock, into the house.
Raven took them on a boat ride around the entire lake and when they got back they decided to go swimming. James ended up taking the bed underneath Sirius, Peter slept in the other bedroom, and Remus slept on the porch. "Cuz I'm closest to the fridge," he teased.
They decided to order pizza and watch movies the rest of the night.
"I swear, Smokey's pizza is the best damn pizza in the whole world!" yelled James as he stuffed his face.
"Yeah, it's pretty good," agreed Sirius.
"Pretty good?" said James and Raven at the same time, smiling.
"I've eaten this pizza my whole life and it gets better every time, man," said James.
"Whatever you say, dude," said Sirius.
"I'm off to bed, guys," said Raven, getting up.
"Want me to tuck you in?" asked Sirius.
"I think I can handle it, Sirius."
"C'mon. I'm sure James would let Lily sleep in his bed." James kicked him under the table. "Ow! What? You know you would." He started to sing, "James and Lily sittin in a tree, f-u-c-k-i-n-" James clapped a hand over his mouth.
"Knock-it-off!" he yelled. Remus and Peter were trying desperately to keep from laughing.
Sirius snapped out of it. "Sorry. I'm fine now."
Shortly after Lily and Raven went to bed, the guys followed. Then someone shook Raven awake. "Wha... what?"
"Ray?"
"Sirius! Get the hell out! We're gonna get caught! James is a really light sleeper!"
"But. kiss?" he whined.
Raven sighed and kissed him. Lily cleared her throat and they broke apart. "Sorry, Lil."
"I'm uh, gonna go. see a man about a horse," she said, getting up.
Raven and Sirius looked at her in confusion.
"It's what my dad always says when he has to make an excuse to leave!" she justified and went to the bathroom, leaving them alone.
"Padfoot, you've gotta go! Go, go, go, go!"
"Wanna go swimming?"
"No! Are you crazy?" she screeched.
"Yes. C'mon, let's go. I already got my suit on," he said.
Raven sighed. "It is nice swimming in the dark.okay, but I'll meet you down there."
"Yes! Okay, hurry up!" Sirius snuck quietly back out the door. Raven was getting her suit on when Lily came back into the room and stared at her.
"He wants to go swimming," she said simply.
"Oh my God, you are head over heels," teased Lily.
"I know. We're gonna tell them soon, Lil."
"Sure, fine, whatever," Lily said, winking at her friend.
"Well, I'm gonna go. see a horse about a man," Raven said, smirking at Lily.
Lily laughed quietly. Raven smiled and snuck out of the house.
"Sirius? Is it cold?" she whispered when she got to the end of the dock.
"I dunno, why don't you find out for me?" he said from behind her as he pushed her into the water.
"Oh my God, you are so dead!" she laughed as her head came up out of the water.
"So, is it cold?"
"Huh? Oh, yeah. yeah, I'm getting a cramp," she whimpered as she sank back into the water. "Help." her head went under.
Sirius stood there shivering. "Oh, c'mon, I don't wanna save you right now! Alright, but you better be worth it!" he said as he dove into the water. A few seconds later, his head popped back up. "Rave? Raven!" she was nowhere to be seen. "Dammit, where are you?" He suddenly started to panic, "Oh shit, Ray? Raven?" he started swimming around frantically.
"Hey, a girl could drown waitin for you," she said, standing at the end of the dock.
"McKinnon, I'm gonna kill you!" he said, breathing a sigh of relief.
"So is James, cuz I think you woke him up with all that yelling," she shot back as she dove into the water.
She pulled him under with her and planted a kiss on his lips.
"Wet one," he said as they came up from the water.
"If they catch us out here, we're dead."
"Then at least I'll die happy," said Sirius in-between kisses.
Raven pulled away. "Me too."
Sirius smiled. "I think this is the happiest I've been in a long time. I don't hafta think about how much my family hates me when I'm with you."
"Sirius, your family doesn't hate you!"
"Yes, they do! And I hate them!"
"I'm sure deep down you'd be sad if one of them died," reasoned Raven.
"I never wanna see them again."
Raven and Sirius were silent on their way back up to the house. They quickly changed back into their pajamas and fell asleep.
Raven opened her eyes and looked around. Lily was already up. She could hear James and Sirius arguing about what movie to watch in the living room.
"Fine! Pick whatever damn movie you want!" yelled James. "Lily, you wanna go for a walk?"
"Okay," she said.
"Can I come?" asked Peter. James sighed but agreed.
Remus stuck his head in the doorway to Raven's room. "Morning."
"Morning," Raven replied, smiling at him.
He entered the room and sat down on the bed next to her. "Miss you lately," he said.
"Really?" Raven asked.
"Well, yeah. You been spendin a lot of time with Sirius, huh?"
"Uh-oh. What does that mean?" asked Raven, sitting up in bed.
"Oh, don't worry. I wouldn't dare accuse you guys of liking each other again. But I think I know why you're together a lot."
"You do?"
"Well, James is a little preoccupied with Lily. I've noticed it, too. And you and Sirius are feeling neglected, right?"
"Well, I guess that's part of it... but that's not all of it." She decided to tell Remus. "Sirius and I-"
Sirius cleared his throat as he stood in the doorway. Raven looked quickly at him and raised her eyebrows. Sirius shrugged. "Why not," he said as he joined them on the bed.
You're right, Moony," continued Raven. "You always were right, but we just figured it out for ourselves."
"Uh, what?"
"We like each other," Sirius summed up.
"Really?" Remus started to smile.
"Yup." Raven and Sirius said together.
Then his smile faded. "I don't believe you. Prove it."
"Prove it?" Sirius asked.
"Kiss her."
Sirius raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Well, it's a dirty job..." He pulled her towards him and kissed her. They pulled away and looked sideways at Remus.
"Well, seeing as Raven's not slapping you right now. How long?" asked Remus.
"Just a few days," said Raven.
"James is gonna freak," warned Remus.
"We know. that's why we're not telling him yet," said Sirius.
"What? Guys, I don't wanna be caught in the middle of this."
"Remus, please? Just for a few more days," pleaded Raven.
Remus sighed. "Alright. But the sooner you tell him, the better."
"We know."
