Thanks for all the reviews... Here is another chapter. This one is a bit higher rated.

Last Day of Hogwarts before the summer holidays.

Sirius finished packing his stuff into his trunk. He felt rather proud of his work well done. When the proud feeling wore off; he started to think about the summer holiday. A whole summer without his best friends, classmates, and Anne would be miserable. Even though Anne was a classmate and an excellent friend, Sirius still placed Anne in a different category. Sirius went downstairs and out through the portrait hole. He needed some air so he stepped outside. Anne was sitting cross-legged on the grassy ground surrounding the lake. Sirius came from behind.

"What are you doing?" Sirius asked absently.

Anne looked back and smiled warmly at him.

"I am taking all the beauty in before I leave." Anne said. "I want to remember ever single detail about this beautiful place.

"What will you be doing over the summer?" Sirius asked.

"Its up to my grandmere." Anne said. "I bet it's full of parties."

"Any parties up at my place?" Sirius asked hopefully.

"I think so, but it wouldn't matter." Anne said sadly. "You won't be there."

"How do you know I am not going to be there?"

"You're going on a cruise with Shirley, right?"

"Shirley told you?" Sirius asked angrily

"Actually, your mother has been separating it around." Anne said quietly. "My grandmere found out."

"I don't want to go, I wish I was going with you instead." Sirius accidentally said.

Sirius could not control what his mind tells him to say, especially with Anne. Anne was like a councillor.

"I wish I could go." Anne said without suspicion. "I've always loved the ocean." "You know, if you make a wish on a jewel, and drop it into the ocean, your wish will come true."

"Really, I must try then." Sirius said happily, "I just need to decide on which jewel to sacrifice."

Anne laughed.

"Are you mocking me?" Anne asked. "You'll regret if you don't do it."

"You're telling me to throw money into the ocean." Sirius said. "Isn't that a waste?"

"It's not a waste if you believe that the wish will come true."

"Does the lake work then?" Sirius asked pointing to the water ahead.

"I think so."

Sirius stood up and went to the edge and looked down to find his reflection in the water.

"When you throw your jewel into the water, it's like giving it to your self again." Anne said as she walked over beside him and looked down as well.

Anne took out a chain around her neck and held it out. There was a little pentagon with engravings surrounding it.

"I'll sacrifice my necklace for your wish." Anne said as she handed the necklace to him.

"I can't throw your necklace away like that." Sirius said with concern. " I'll hate myself if the wish doesn't come true."

"It will come true though." Anne said sweetly.

Sirius took a chain from his neck and handed it too Anne. The necklace held a ring with a black stone in the centre.

"The necklace was from my father." Sirius said quietly. "He gave it to me on his death bed."

"I can't throw that." Anne said as she tried to force it back into Sirius's hand.

"Then, who was your necklace from?" Sirius asked.

"It was from my mother." Anne whispered. "She told me that I would be able to open the locket some day, but it would take a long time before it will."

Sirius looked at her.

"Why don't we make a wish together and drop each others necklace into the wishing lake." Sirius said.

"Are you sure?" Anne asked.

"On the count of three, make a wish and close our eye and drop it into the water." Sirius instructed.

Anne nodded and the count off began.

"Three, two and one." Sirius said. He closed his eyes and made a wish and threw.

Their eyes opened and looked at each other.

"What did you wish for?" Sirius asked.

"I can't tell you." Anne said evilly. "What about you?"

"I can't tell you neither." Sirius said mockingly.

"Fine." Anne said. "Let's go back inside, I think dinner will be served soon."

Sirius nodded and led Anne back with something hidden deep in side his right palm.

Summer holiday on the cruise

Sirius and Shirley had spent the last two weeks on the boring cruise ship. After tonight the cruise would arrive back where they started. Sirius sat on the balcony of his suit. He was looking at the setting sun. The dark blue liquid below him crashed continuously at the cruise. Sirius took out the necklace he had supposedly thrown into the Hogwarts Lake out. He studied the little pentagon every night and wondered if he could possibly be able to open it. That day at the lake, he had really wanted to drop it into the water, but he chicken out last minute. He knew he was going to return it to Anne one day, but for now, he much rather keep it. He returned the necklace to his pocket and looked at the rising moon. Suddenly, there was knock on the door. Sirius went to answer it.

"Hi." Shirley said timidly. "I was wondering if I could come in."

"Of course." Sirius said confused as he steps aside for her to past through.

Sirius turned back to the door and closed it. He was wondering why Shirley wanted to visit. When he turned back he saw Shirley in a very revealing nightgown; her robe was laid on Sirius bed. Shirley looked into Sirius's eyes and stepped closer. Sirius backed away until he hit the wall. Shirley was so close that she had to look up to see his face.

"Shirley." Sirius said frightened. "What's wrong?"

"Sirius, I love you." Shirley said seriously, "I really do, do you love me back?"

Sirius thought of Anne and her sayings.

"I do love you back" Sirius said uncertainly wondering if Anne would approve.

Shirley smiles happily and tears leaked out of her bright blue eyes.

"I was so afraid that you didn't care." Shirley said happily between sobs.

Shirley placed her arms around Sirius's neck and her face into his neck. Sirius didn't move away. But the worst has still to come. Shirley kissed Sirius's neck and started to unbutton his shirt. Sirius did not know what to do. Was he to push her way or let her continue? Shirley had finish with her shirt button and placed her hands on his face. She now began to kiss his face.

"This doesn't feel like love." Sirius though. "This isn't even lust this is wrong." "Shirley's got the wrong idea about love, she's hurting herself."

Sirius took Shirley's hands gently and looked straight into her eyes.

"Don't do this to yourself." Sirius said slowly. "You're hurting yourself."

Shirley's eyes shined with tears.

"Why won't you let me be?" She asked angrily.

"I don't want to hurt you." Sirius said gently. "You know I love you in a different way."

"Where going to get married in two years!"

"I won't marry you." Sirius whispered.

Shirley cried harder.

"Who is it?" She choked. "Who's the other girl?"

"There isn't anyone." Sirius said. "I only love you as a sister."

"I don't care." Shirley whisper. "I just want you."

"Even if we get married, you know I won't truly love you." Sirius said. " Will end up like my parents and regret."

"But I love you so much." Shirley said quietly.

"I am sorry." Sirius said. "I though loving someone would be easy, I guess Anne's right."

Sirius took Shirley into his arms and patted her lightly.

After an Hour

Sirius place sleeping Shirley into his bed and covered her bare shoulders with the quilt. He went back outside and sat down and continued to look at the moon until the sun greeted him.

Summer Lawn party at the Pringles.

Sirius and Shirley were riding in a white limousine to the Pringle's party. This party was not formal, but all guest were to dress in their best summer clothes. Sirius wore a white suit and Shirley was in her pink dress suit and bonnet. Shirley seemed to have forgotten about the night at the cruise and seem to be as joyous as usual. This freaked Sirius quite a bit at first. They finally arrived at the Pringles. The estate was huge. Their garden was beautiful. The driver opened the door and Sirius and Shirley got out, followed by his mother in the black limousine behind.

"How nice to see you." Said a false sweet voice that belongs to Mrs Pringle.

"Such a delightful day." Sirius's mother continued the conversation as Sirius escaped in search of Anne.

Shirley caught up to him.

"What are you doing silly?" Shirley asked gaily.

"I am looking for Anne." Sirius said hastily.

"Okay then, I'll be with your mother if you happen to look for me." Shirley said.

Sirius went off again and found the girl he was looking for. She was standing beside the fountain holding a champagne and flower. She was in a powder green halter-top dress. Sirius walked over.

"Good to see you my fair lady." Sirius said in a very gentlemen like voice.

Anne laughed out.

"Good to see you too my lord." Anne said between laughs.

Sirius bend down and kissed her hand. Anne giggled.

"That's going a bit over board." Anne said.

"I know." Sirius said.

Anne and Sirius walked into the orchard away from the guests.

"The garden is beautiful." Sirius said.

"It's delicious, but I am not allowed in the garden." Anne said with disappointment.

"It's a shame." Sirius said. "I guess only the gardeners get to enjoy such exquisiteness."

Anne suddenly looked serious.

"I have an confession to make." Anne said seriously. "You remember that day we were making wishes at the pond."

"Yeah."

"Well, I didn't drop your necklace into the water." Anne said sorely. "I couldn't do it, sorry."

Anne opened her hand and the necklace revealed.

"Why are you sorry, silly?" Sirius said.

Sirius took the necklace and undid the clasp. He took out the ring and slides it on to Anne's middle finger.

"The ring actually belongs to your mother." Sirius admitted.

"How could it be?" Anne asked.

"That's the ring my father use to propose to your mother." Sirius said. " Your mother was forced to accept it, but she ran away on her wedding day to my father."

Anne looked at the ring and at Sirius and then the ring.

"I didn't know this." She said. "I always thought my mother sneaked away."

Sirius didn't mind telling Anne about the truth, but he did not want to give back the locket just yet.

Sirius placed his arm around Anne's shoulder and began to walk around the garden.

"When my mother and father got married, it wasn't even official." Anne said. "My mother didn't have a wedding gown nor did she have a ring."

"Complete opposite to my parent's wedding." Sirius said. "They had a thousand guests."

"Everyone like different things." Anne said. "That's why everyone different."

"Yeah, everyone is very different." Sirius said. "Especially you."

"I am not that special." Anne said. "I just don't hide what who I truly am."

"How do you know?" Sirius asked.

"Because my mirror reflects exactly who I am inside and out." Anne said with a twisted smile looking into his eyes.

He looked into hers and felt although she could see exactly what he was thinking.
