Author's Note- Hey! I'm back! This chapter was already half written when when I got writer's block. So if it's not good let me know, and I can change it!

Chapter 4, Is it love?

The next week went by fast. Sirius and I spent a lot of time together. Before and after classes, during meals, and in the common room. Lily seemed to be pissed off at this, but I didn't listen. And before I knew it, Halloween was only a few days away.

I had just come out of a really stressful potions class, and I wanted to get some rest before dinner.

"Psst...Jesse!" I heard someone whisper my name. I turned around and saw Sirius standing in the doorway of an empty classroom. I walked over and he lead me inside and closed the door.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"Shh..." Sirius whispered. Then he kissed me. This went on for a couple of minutes, and then he slowly broke away. He just stood there, looking at me.

"What?"

"I love you." he said.

It took me a couple seconds to register what he said. Then I realized he was waiting for me to say something. But, did I love him? 'Of course you do!' I silently reprimanded myself. Even though we haven't been going out for that long. But he treated me special. Like I was the only person in the world that mattered to him. And when we were together, nothing else mattered. All my troubles and stresses melted away. The rest of the outside world faded, and it was just me and Sirius. All that mattered was us being together. And he had the power to do all that. He had the power to make the world fade away, with his passionate kisses, soft caresses, and meaningful words. But was it love? Was it more than just a physical attraction? It had to be.

"Jesse?" Sirius asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.

"I love you too." I answered, trying to contemplate the meaning of the words I just said. Sirius smiled.

"Alright, well I'll let you get back to the common room. You look tired.." he said kissing me, then he unlocked the door and watched me go.

I walked, as if in a trance, back to the common room. When I got there Lily was sitting in an armchair, reading. I plopped down in the chair across from her. And I guess, by the expression on my face, she could tell that something was up.

"What happened? Are you okay?" she asked, putting her book down.

I didn't hear her, though, because my mind was still in the empty classroom with Sirius.

"Hello? Jesse?" Lily said, waving he hand over my eyes. I snapped back to focus.

"Are you okay?" she repeated.

"Yeah I'm fine." I said.

"What happened?"

"Nothing." I said, a grin playing at the corners of my mouth.

"I don't believe you. C'mon Jesse, tell me!" Lily insisted.

"He kissed me..."

"Oh, come on! You guys have kissed tons of time. It's actually quite disgusting!"

I rolled my eyes, "You didn't let me finish! He said he loved me!"

Lily looked beyond me, in deep thought.

"What is it?" I asked, pulling he out of her thoughts.

"He's said that to almost every other girl he's ever been with." she said finally.

"And your point is...?"

"Well, he's not with them anymore. So how could he have loved them?" she said matter of factly.

"Oh, right. So why should I be any different?" I asked sarcastically, starting to get angry.

"That's not what I meant. I..."

"Why are you so against us going out? You don't think that he could actually love me?!" I yelled, and when Lily gave no response I stormed off to the girl's dormitories.
