Never Been Forgiven
Chapter Seven
Disclaimer: All but this storyline, Anne, Karen and all from Sirius' new school belongs to J.K.Rowling.
I have tried really hard to get this one up quickly because I know what's going to happen... hope ya enjoy (and review because that makes me happy ( )

"Sirius!! Where have you been? We've been looking for you." Adam (The team captain) looked at Karen, "Where'd you find him?"
"I'm right here!" Sirius cried indignantly, "You could ask me!"
Adam laughed, "Forget it. I'm sure you have a good excuse, but I'm not really interested, so let's just get on with the practice."
With that the group moved off into formation, splitting in two to make two teams. As the wind picked up in the back round Adam yelled, "We only have time for one quick game, but it should be enough...so lets make it quick. Right?" In reply there was a general stamp of approval and the players thundered onto the pitch and a game began.
Back at the ruins
"So...that was...er...interesting?" James looked round appealingly.
"Er...yeh, I guess." Lily said thoughtfully. "But I...I eh I dunno if we should meet-him-later."
Four pairs of startled eyes stared at her. Lily squirmed under her friends eyes, "Its just...well...he seems to have this whole new life without us, and he obviously doesn't want us to be part of it." She said this in a very low voice, but very quickly so her friends were just about clinging onto her words.
"I guess." Remus lamented.
James looked too stunned for words, while Peter and Anne nodded their agreement.
"Whoa, Whoa. What is wrong with you people?! I mean, we have been looking for Sirius so we could have him return to Hogwarts with us again for almost four years!! And NOW NOW when we finally have the chance to be friends again your all running scared." James raged on, turning to face Remus, "And you! I thought you loved him!! You of all people should be willing to befriend him again!" He stopped to breath, looking round the small group. It was only when he saw the shocked looks on Anne and Peter's faces that he realised just how much he'd given away. Slowly he turned his attention to Remus, only to meet two very cold golden eyes, reflecting hurt, pain and fear. In a swish of black robes Remus was gone, running of towards the beach in the distance.
Three pairs of startled eyes followed him, and a silence desended upon the shrinking group.
"Should we follow him?" Asked Anne timidly, still in slight shock over James's untimely admission on Remus' behalf.
"No," replied Lily thoughtfully, "I think he needs some time alone to gather his thoughts, plus we should go get dinner." At Peter's look she hastily added, "And we'll keep Remus some." Peter looked down heartened, but brightened up when the conversation turned to food. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, it's extrememly short, but I think it's a bit of a cliff hanger. I promise you some serious conversation will go on in the next chapter, and you might even find out what happened to Sirius. Okay, talk to you soon, and please review.
Oh and thanks for your other reviews.
