Chapter 3.. whatever it takes
Sirius took one last look in the floor length mirror and ran a casual hand through his messy black hair. James looked at him with a sly grin playing across his lips.
"you are treading on dangerous soil here, padfoot, but I must say. if you do manage to pull this off.. We will have pulled off the greatest prank of all time! But best of all..it will be on malfoy and snape!" james chided.
Sirius looked down and then back into the mirror.. " malfoy will never get his knickers out of a bundle after I land his vixen of a sister. Our legacy will be set in stone dear prongs."
James patted his best friend on the back as Sirius left the dorm room and made his way down the staircase. He exited through the portrait hole and began to walk rather quickly toward the library. He only had one book under his arm: poetry. Yes he was going to try and win her over with poetry of all things. Little did Sirius know.. That anyone who truly knew drea. would absolutely know for a fact.. That some prat reading a bunch of rhyming little poems.. Would never have a chance in bloody hell of winning her over.
He entered the library and glanced around for his girlfriend to be. he grinned when he found her sitting at a vacant table... with of course.. Her nose in a book.. All alone. He strode up to her in a fashion that was unique to the one and only Sirius Black. He quietly pulled up a chair and sat down across from drea. waiting for her to notice him.
" Hello Mr. black.. Your 2 minutes late. not off to a good start now are we?" Drea said evenly, without even a glance up from her book.
Sirius cringed... 'not good'. he thought as he set his book upside down on the talbe.. Obscuring the title.
"Sorry.. I got preoccupied studying for all my classes to keep my excellent marks up... please forgive me will you? You look stunning tonight, Ms. Malfoy.. Or might I call you Drea?" Sirius said in his most sickening of debonair tones.
"You . studying.. That is a sad statement in itself.. I know all about you mr. black as I have said before... I don't know why you keep on pursuing someone.. Who in fact would never want you.. I hate to burst your buble..or your enormous ego for that matter." drea said in the same even tone..her eyes never faltering from her book.
Sirius' smile fell into a somewhat hurt frown... but he quickly recovered. Someone who doesn't want him.. Blimey o' reilly's knickers.. What a concept. He thought... this was going to be much more of a challenge then he had imagined. He must find a weakness.. someone who knew about this girl.. He had one last resort up his sleeve... he slowly reached for the book but was stopped dead in midair.
"Don't even think about it Mr. black.. If you think you can come here and win me over by reading me some cutsie little poems out of a leather bound book. you are sorely mistaken. I suggest that if you would like to even have a snowballs chance in hell at even getting me to call you by your first name let alone go out on a date with you. you better re -evaluate your strategy. and come back when you wont embarrass the pants off yourself." Drea stated now looking into the very wide open eyes of her fellow classmate.
"how.." Sirius began in amazement.
" how did I know it was poetry? I am not a hermit.. I have talked to some of the girls that have dated the likes of you.. Your poetry book is quite famous you know."
Sirius ginned. he may have been getting his ego torn to shreds but he had to admit.. there was something quite attractive about a feisty girl like drea.
"you fascinate me." Sirius said. a genuine smile lighting up his face as he stared into her entrancing blue yes.
Drea looked back into his eyes.. And felt herself begin to grin..
"Good bye mr. black.." She said in a lighter tone, while gathering up her things. she proceeded out of the library, glancing over her shoulder once.
Sirius sighed... he had to find someone who was close to her.. he needed an inside link..he glanced around the library to see if he was alone... as he finished to the right he spotted none other then his close mate.. Remus with a lanky somewhat plain blonde..
Something clicked.. Remus and Drea are close.. They always seemed to be partners in almost everything. come to think of it. remus spent a lot of his time with the blue eyed vixen. Sirius got up and walked over to the table, pulling out a chair and plopping himself down.
Remus looked over at his friend and slightly smiled. "what brings you o such a place Sirius?" he mused... "Oh don't tell me you didn't here my not first but 2nd beating of the ego in 2 days.."
"Now that you mention it.. It was quite brilliant.. Don't you think so kat?" remus said looking over at the blonde.
"Pathetic Sirius. absolutely pathetic.. But you know what they say about that malfoy girl.." Kat replied, looking some what dazedly at the boy with the shaggy black hair and piercing blue eyes.
"Oh...?" Sirius said.. his attention and interest now piqued "what do you know about her?"
"Only that every guy that has ever went after her has failed miserably and hasn't dated a girl since. an ice cold bitch, that one is. The only boy she even seems to be friendly to is remus here." Kat said, grinning. "If your looking for a girl Sirius. thee are much more forgiving ones such as myself available."
"Sorry to burst your bubble kat. but sirius isn't looking to settle down.. he is looking to pull off a prank by destroying someone else.. Lovely how he plays with girls isn't it?" remus said in somewhat of a resentful tone.
"Touche..." Sirius said with a mischievous look at remus., "I do need your help though. I need to know more about her. and you are the only one who can help. I beg you moony.. Please help out your mate.."
Remus stared hard at his muscular friend "Alright.. But you have to promise me one thing. if you go through with this... you cant fall in love with her and you cant hurt her."
"Me fall in love? You must have drank to much butterbeer.. Sirius black does not fall in love. girls fall in love with me. never the other way around, chap. And as far as hurting her goes.. What do you take me as? A heathan. I would never hurt a pretty girl.." Sirius said in his upbeat, somewhat arrogant tone.
"That's not what your reputation says Sirius. there is a Sirius black help line for those who have dated you now.. And a support group.." kat shot at him, laughing.
"I am getting beaten today.. Bloody Christ." Sirius said, "So you will help me then Remus.. Its not like you fancy her..?"
Remus sighed and brushed a tress of hair out of his face. "Yes I will help you.." He finally said.
"Fantastic! Now... kat may I walk you back to your common room? Being the gentleman that I am..." Sirius asked, extending his hand to the pretty girl on his left.
"Of course.." Kat replied placing her hand in his. "Gentleman. good one Sirius."
They left the library and Remus all alone to his thoughts. 'if only you knew Sirius...' he thought, laying his head down in his arms.
"Of all the girls he could have. of all the bloody girls in this whole school.. He picks the that I happen to fancy.. bloody brilliant." He mumbled, "Bloody brilliant"
