Amelia Fason's POV:

" Amy! " my mother shouted from the banister. " Quickly, now or we'll be late! "

"Wait a sec! " I called back as I grabbed a bag and stuffed all the Muggle goodies I

could find on my desktop. ( I have a sweet tooth. I mean a Muggle sweet tooth. ) Clutching the bag filled with

all kinds of Muggle sweet, I ran from the room to meet my mother outside.

She stood near the white painted front door with her hands wrapped around my coat and hers too. An angry

frown was on her lips.

" What took you so long? " she asked, impatiently.

" I, um, forgot my diary. " I lied, hiding the bag behind my back. If she knew about my obsession with

Muggle sweets, she'll freak!

I shuddered at the mere thought of it.

" Let's go! We're going to be late, " she urged me as she fumbled around in her big, bulging black purse

to search for her car keys. I slipped the bag into my coat pocket. It was snowing gently.

" So did you get to know the Blacks son? " Mum asked me, catching me off-guard.

" What? " I exclaimed.

" Did you get to meet Sirius Black? " she repeated.

" Um...no. I, uh, met his sister, " I answered.

" Oh, " Mum said in a disappointed tone. Her gaze switched back to the road. Then, silence fell over us.

I kept on fidgeting with me charm bracelet. It was my lucky one. There was a small silver basilisk pendant that

lay dangling on my wrist and was surrounded by small silver beads. (I love basilisks. You might say that I'm

a little weird )

Sirius Black

Sirius looked around the platform 9 3/4, searching for Amelia Fason. She still wasn't here yet.

What's taking her so long? he thought, impatiently, his brilliant black eyes darting here and there. Alisa

was wailing for her ' big sister'. (Alisa's referring to Amelia.) Mrs. black was trying to hush her up as she was

getting unwanted attention from the Muggles.

" I wanty Ameliaaaaaaaa! " she screamed on and on.

" Hush honey, Amelia's coming. "

" Look! They're here! " Mr. Black called out excitedly. Sirius head snapped up and looked in the direction

where his father was pointing.

There she is! At last! Sirius thought, the moment he laid his eyes on her. She's so cute in her outfit!

Amelia Fason's POV:

My heart raced as soon as I spotted ' him '. My cheeks turned a little pink.

" Hiiiiiii, Ameliaaaaaaaa! " Alisa screamed happily, her bright blue eyes lit up.

" Oh, hi Alisa, Mr. Black and Mrs. Black " I smiled, a wide one. Without warning, Alisa

wrapped her arms around my waist and hugged me tightly.

" H-hi, Sirius. " I stammered going red in the face as Alisa finally pulled away.

" Oh, hi Amelia, " he replied, trying to search my eyes for ' answers '. Just then, a horn blared loudly.

I winced slightly.

" Amy, go now. " Mum urged me, softly and then she winked.

I wonder what that wink was for? I thought, sending Mum a puzzled look but she ignored it completely.

The horn blared again. Mum gave me a gentle push when Sirius had already entered the door of the Express.

" I'll miss you, Mum. " I told her, sadly and pulled her into a bear hug.

After one last kiss from Mum, I climbed onto the varnished, black platform and looked out the window. I

waved at Mum and then at Alisa, who had already started her infamous wailing for me to come back. I blew

a small kiss at Alisa and she instantly quietened down. I waved at them as the train moved faster and faster,

making Alisa and my mother disappear from view but replaced by big green hills, white birds and fluffy,

blue clouds. I sighed heavily.

I miss Mum already, I thought sadly. I shook my head and started for the nearest compartment. I opened the

glass sliding doors.

" Oh, hi Amelia. " Sirius instantly snapped his head up and I noticed that his brilliant eyes lit up. A tinge

pink lit up my cheeks.

" Oh, and Amelia? This is James Potter, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew. " Sirius started.

" Hello, " I nodded at each of them as soon as I sat down on the black vinyl seat across from Sirius.

" So Sirius, is this your fifth girl? " James sneered at me and gave me a once look over. " She's not that

pretty to me. "

" Oh, please. Sirius and me? I see that we're not a good pair, " I shot back, amazed at my own courage. James

opened his mouth and then closed it. I smirked triumphantly. A dark look crossed over Sirius's face. Silence

fell over us. I took out a novel to read.

Sirius Black

He looked over at Amelia Fason's angelic face. He felt hurt and amazed at the same time.

I truly like her but didn't she take the hint? He asked himself. Obvious hurt was showed on his face. He felt

Like crying just then and wanted to shout at her but he held all his over controlled feelings back. He liked her

since she babysat Alisa for him. He felt so helpless just then. He wanted Amelia's arms around him and

Her soft lips over his.

" Is it true, Padfoot? " James, his best friend, asked.

" Huh? " Sirius face now showed a puzzled expression. James rolled his eyes.

" Is it true that she is not your fifth one? " he hissed. Sirius shook his head.

" No but I-I-I feel attracted to her, " he told James in an embarrassed whisper, eyeing Amelia's face.

James eyes widened with surprise.

" You-you like her? " he asked. Sirius only nodded in reply. For the first time, James smiled.

" Then go get her, I know you will. Just use your Black's charm. Know what I mean? " James suggested.

" Yeah, that's a good one but...I bet you that she would not fall for it, " Sirius answered, still eyeing Amelia.

" Just try. I have faith in you, " James told him in a confident tone. He nodded, still eyeing Amelia's

innocent face.
