Change of Heart

James sat with Lily in his arms as Remus and Hermione did their homework and Sirius tried to figure out to use the computer. Tonks sat with Ginny trying to figure out what to wear for a date she had that night, Madison had given her quite a few different thing's but they were all so nice that she couldn't make up her mind.

Sirius punched more buttons trying to find her but it didn't seem to want to work for him, or she really wasn't at the school anymore; but where could she be then? He lead back in his chair and closed his eyes, he hadn't done this in years but it used to work so why shouldn't it work now.

'Nissa, can you hear me?'

But there was no answer, so he tried it again.

'Nissa, hear me!'

This time he felt something, it was like a warm fire behind him and then against his neck.

"You called." Nissa said pleasantly as she sat down on the arm of his chair.

He just looked up at her, as the others wondered what she meant; but only Remus and James knew of course.

"I'll tell you late." James told Lily.

"That was impressive, very impressive." Nissa told him. "So, what did you want me for?"

"Well erm...I..." Sirius tried to say, but now that she was here he didn't know what he wanted to say to her.

"I can't stay long, because I'm leaving for a mission." Nissa told him. "Well I'm leaving in an hour...not sure when I'll be back though."

"What but you can't leave." Sirius told her.

"Of course I can, I'm a Prentice I have been since I was eleven years old." Nissa told him. "This is what I do, you know that."

"But...what about what I said?" Sirius asked.

"What do you mean? Why would that change my mind about leaving?" Nissa asked confused again.

"I bet you would stay if that Ewan asked you." Sirius said under his breath but they all heard him none the less.

Nissa smiled at him. "Sirius don't be stupid, of course he wouldn't ask me not to do this, because he does the same. Well...why don't I contact you, you know tell you that I got there safely. I'll try not to get into any trouble, or to get shot at, or kidnapped or end up in prison; not that its hard to escape from prison."

"What, what do you mean escape from prison?" Sirius asked her.

"It doesn't matter; it'll just worry you even more." Nissa told him, as she stood up again. "Oh I'll be back for the Firmasca match between our two schools; maybe you should practice so we don't kick your asses."

"Like that would ever happen." Sirius said smiling slightly at her. "You don't have to go; they can't make you, stay here."

"Sirius, I can't do that I'm a Saxe; I can't just say sorry master but I don't want to go on this mission because a guy from our sister school has asked me not to." Nissa told him.

But he didn't get a chance to say anything else as Sirius F walked up behind Nissa and wrapped his arms around her and kissed her on the cheek.

"So my lady, still beautiful as ever." Sirius F said smiling. "So how long are you going for? I'm going for a month or so."

"Not sure, how ever long it takes and we might get another mission." Nissa answered. "But I'm coming back for the match as normal of course, just like you."

"Of course, can't let Oliver down now can we." Sirius F said smiling. "Try not to break any hearts, I know its hard considering how beautiful you are; but just remember me waiting here for your undying love."

"Of course Sirius." Nissa said smiling back at him, she turned back around. "I'll see you when I get back, good look with the training ship next week."

"Yeah right." Sirius said.

"See ya." Remus said weaving as she walked off.

"What the hell is with that guy?" Sirius demanded as he turned back round. "He's doing it on purpose trying to get her."

"Just remember it's not a game." Lily told him.

"Don't they look nice together?" Severus said as he sat down, with Sirius glaring at him. "It's sickening what the hell does she see in him; it's like what the hell did she see in you?"

"No more sickening then the two of you together." Sirius shot at him.

"It still hurts doesn't it?" Severus said calmly.

"She won't even look twice at you here...remember because you hate werewolves." Sirius told him.

"Yes well...well...not all of them are that bad." Severus said, making them all look up at him as though he had gone mad.

"I think he's finally lost it." James said.

"Snape's gone mad." Fred said.

"Hey maybe they did something to him." George suggested.

"What like give him a brain." Bill said smiling.

"I'm sat right here, I won't take any of that." Severus told them.

"Yeah well you'll have to, because your nit a teacher now so get used to it." Sirius reminded him.

"Oh your just loving all of this aren't you?" Severus said.

"Severus are you going to tell us why you don't think they're so bad now?" Lily asked him kindly, ignoring the looks from James and Sirius.

But Severus never answered her, because just then a tall beautiful girl came over and wrapped her arms around him and kissed him deeply. She had long purple black hair and her skin was a pale purple.

"Hi." Lily said.

She looked up at them not realising how surprised they all looked at seeing her with him.

"This is Peri-Tonus." Severus told them.

"Hay." Peri said smiling as she walked round and sat down next to him, with his arm around her.

"This whole worlds gone mad." Sirius whispered to Remus, who wasn't listening but was staring opened mouthed at Peri.

"Your...you're a werewolf." Remus said.

"Yeap, just like you." Peri said brightly. "So are you as cute as a werewolf as you are as a man?"

Remus went bright red, as they all looked from him to her with Severus glaring at him.

"No he's not, a terrible sight he is." Severus told her. "Not something you would want to see."

"Well human's aren't the same as others." Peri said. "But with a bit of training that should change; I mean once you've accepted who and what you are of course. If not then well, I don't even want to think about it..."

"Yes well, we're going." Severus said standing up with Peri at his side; he smiled at Sirius before he walked off.

"I don't believe it...that bastard got himself a girlfriend and I can't even get mine to look at me like that." Sirius said outraged. "What the hell does she see in him...he's a greasy haired git, who gates werewolves...what has he just changed his mind all because of her?"

"Maybe Nissa should have told him then." Remus suggested, and then smiled. "She thought I was cute."

"Yeah but she's also going out with Snape." Fred said trying not to laugh but couldn't help himself.

"Don't mind him Remus, you are cute...handsome." Lily told him kindly.

"I'm not sure I want to be a teenager again." Remus said. "It was hard enough the first time around."
