"Good God I hate being here" I told Sirius as we finally got into my room and shut the door. We had arrived at my family's mansion about an hour ago, but my father being as proud and dramatic as he was insisted that Sirius receive the grand tour. At first I thought it was to be polite and because he was arrogant about all of our possessions, but then I realized he was trying to show Sirius he wasn't good enough for me. What a surprise he'd be getting.
Sirius seemed captivated when we met in the common room earlier that day. I had washed all of the black dye out of my normally wheat blonde hair, and also magicked (sp?) it back to its normal length. Grudgingly I pulled on the fancy dress that I had packed for emergencies. It was long and deep blue, and way too fancy for my taste. The sleeves were long and billowly, and the skirt was loose but poofy. It was the strangest yet the prettiest dress I had ever seen.
I pulled out the ribbons that kept my dress closed in the back as soon as I dropped by my bag onto my over sized bed. I tried to take off the corset without pulling the sleeves off, but didn't have any luck. Yanking my sleeves off, I smiled to myself at the look on Sirius' face. I swore he thought he had gone to heaven. He had a dreamy, far away look, and didn't dare move his gaze. Thankfully I had choosen a corset I could take off without an army of ten people, so in about two minutes I had it off and had pulled it off and put my dress back on right. Finally Sirius removed his gaze and sat on the corner of the bed, eyes closed. I imagined he was reliving the events of the past minutes over and over in his head.
"Hate it? At least your dad actually cares and you don't have people glaring at you constantly." Sirius reminded me, a dark shadow falling over his face as he reflected on his own family life.
"Yes but I still hate it. But you make it better" I grinned, laughing at how utterly cheesey I sounded.
"I'm pretty shocked your father agreed to let me stay in here with you. Doesn't he think I'm going to rape you or something?"
"Getting ideas? Yes, he would normally think you'd rape me but I think by now he realizes that you wouldn't need to force" I replied, still grinning. I couldn't believe I was actually having this conversation, but it felt oddly normal. I guess that was proving something on its own.
"Heh the ideas aren't new" He told me, typical maruader. It wasn't that I didn't know it already, but part of it still made me happy to feel loved like that.
"I wonder how I guessed. Maybe Lily thinking your wand was in your lap was a good enough guess." I joked, poking fun at the time Lily had thought his wand was in his lap when it was something very different.
He turned a bright shade of magenta before choking out an answer. "Shut up, Noel. You wouldn't want Lucius to take my place, eh?"
"Fuck off Black" I shot at him, heading into the bathroom that was joined to my room and locking the door. I wasn't sure why, but his comment about Lucius really pissed me off. I supposed it was because we both knew he had leverage over me because of Lucius and that I'd have to basically do whatever he wanted or he'd leave. Part of me thought he wouldn't leave in fear of missing out on a good shag, but the other part knew he'd leave for a day or two just to torment me and catch up on the shagging later.
"Noel?" Sirius called, tapping his knuckles on the door. "I'm sorry, okay? I'm not leaving, I swear. Wouldn't want to miss out on a good shag!"
"Yes, I suppose you wouldn't want to miss out, eh?" I laughed, opening the door. Holy Shit, Noel. You're seriously going to screw yourself up big time if you continue with the constant mood swings I reminded myself as I stepped out of the bathroom. I knew I was a drama queen, just like my father (he's not a queen, lol) but I had been changing moods more than Lily changed clothes lately.
"Now, about that shag" Sirius drifted off, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively.
"Oh don't you wish. I think that's the only thing you ever think about."
"Yes, it is. Now I guess I'll just have to use my authority..."
"Well, catch me first and then we'll discuss the shagging schedule." I teased, leaping onto my bed and twirling around. He jumped after me, but I bounced off the other edge and landed with a quiet thud on the flo. (Sorry, but I had to do that)
He seemed to have practice chasing, as he pulled me back as I headed for the bathroom. His long fingers grabbed the back of my dress, and I stumbled backwards. For once I was regretting taking of the corset, because his fingers got caught on one of the ribbons that held it together. He pulled me around, taking the chance to finally kiss me. (I know, a long three hours without any snogging. What a life)
He didn't forget the ribbons, however. Sirius didn't take his attention away from snogging, but also wrapped his arms around me and attempted to retie the ribbon.
"Noel Analeise Finnigan, what in the name of Merlin are you doing?" My father demanded, standing in the doorway.
Sirius and I both froze for a second, mid kiss and in the middle of his fingers tangled in my ribbons. We backed away, yet stayed close. At the same time it donned on us that he was stuck in my ribbons. We stood shoulder to shoulder, waiting for my father to speak again.
"Noel, Mister Black, get yourselves down into the Parlor right now." He demanded, his foot tapping the flo.
"Uh, dad? We're kind of...stuck" I told him, grinning like a fool. I found the situation oddly funny, and before I knew it Sirius and I were both in tears on the flo. I had to sit in his lap though, considering we were still "connected".
"What on earth is funny in here?" My old nanny appeared in the doorway, a stern look on her face. She sharply intook breath as she saw me in his lap and us laughing like we were drunk. As I laughed I realized that Sirius looked at least five years older and was twice my size. I could only imagine what thoughts were going through her head.
"Noel and Sirius, get downstairs now or there will be severe consequences" My father warned, getting more and more mad by the minute. Together we pulled ourselves upright and staggered out of the room, still attatched. We scooted down the stairs, tears streaming down our faces. We got to the Parlor at last, and collasped onto the couch.
"Sirius, what did you do with the ribbons?" I asked suspiciously, eyeing him. I realized there was no way in bloody hell that the ribbons would still be caught.
"Oooh nothing" He grinned, trying to sound innocent.
"Come on, we need to be detatched. You do realize that there is absolutely no way we'd be able to shag like this? Hell, I can't even get the dress off." I told him, thinking of a way he'd be sure to undo the spell.
"Do you plan on shagging me on your couch?" He inquired, smiling.
"Well, actually..." I told him as my dad stepped into the room.
My dad had obviously caught on to Sirius' scheme, because with a quick flick of his wand Sirius' fingers were freed from my ribbons. I scooted to the opposite side of the couch, trying not to anger my father more. The look on his face scared me senseless.
"Noel, come here" He barked, looking malevolent.
I pushed myself off the couch and stood tall, trying to appear confident.
"Yes?"
"Noel, I'm shocked and very angered at your actions lately. You've been overwhelmingly rude, very inapropriet and sexual, as well as rebelious. Especially engaging in your new relation with Mister Black over here."
"Dad, I love Sirius. You can't stop that. Lucius Malfoy is..." I drifted off, sticking my tongue out.
"Noel you have no idea what true love is. Lucius Malfoy is a real man, from a very respectable family. Black over here doesn't have a home, is not respectful to his family and has had more dentions then all of our family members combined. You could do so much better."
"I hate you" I mummbled, shifting my eyes to the flo. I clenched my fists and snapped a rubber band on my wrist, trying not to turn and punch the crap out of my father.
He evidentally heard me, as he drew his hand up and slapped me hard across the cheek. Being the idiot I was, I didn't even see it coming. Staggering back, I pulled my hand over my cheek, trying not to touch it because it was stinging like no slap I'd ever received from my father.
Sirius lunged at my father, enraged. He got my dad down to the flo and managed to get in a couple punches before I yanked him back. He looked at me, confused, before we both whispered "Godrics Hollow" and dissapeared from my living room.
"James? You here?" Sirius' deep voice echoed off of the walls as we landed in the kitchen of James' mansion. His parents had both been killed months before and James had occupied it since then alone, dimissing all of the house elves that had once served his family.
"I think I hear something" I whispered, nodding my head toward the stairs.
"Why are we whispering?" He whispered back, laughing. His face was lined with concern however, I thought that I probably had a mark on my face.
"I don't know" I replied in a normal tone, and pulled him up the stairs. We were oddly quiet though, we both were a little spooked by the eerie quietness of the house. It set us both ill at ease.
"You hear it?"
"Yeah, I do. Lets check James' room" He suggested and lead the way down the hall. Everything once again went quiet, and he pulled open what I guessed to be James' door.
"Bloody Hell" Sirius breathed, taking in the sight before us.
"Noel?" James gasped hoarsley, a look of horror on his face.
"James?" Sirius asked.
"Lily?" I said, scared at what I said.
"Sirius?" Lily exclaimed, pulling the sheets over her flaming head of hair.
"So this is where you get your quills on weekends" I remarked, catching on. "I must agree, they have quite the selection."
"Noel!" Lily scolded, still not moving her face from under the sheets.
"Mate, if this is helping out at Honeydukes I'm their new employee" Sirius laughed. Since the beginning of the year Lily had gone to Hogsmeade every weekend for quills, or so she told us. I hadn't found it odd, but Lindsey had joked around that Lily was shagging the salesman. Neither of us had realized James did the same thing, only claimed he was helping out at Honeydukes and that was how he always earned us free butterbeers.
"Oh ho when I tell Lindsey she's going to flip" I laughed, imagining the look on her face when she realized that we'd been tricked the entire year.
"Ho yourself, Noel Finnigan" She laughed, peeking from under the covers. She dropped the sheet that was covering her upper half in surprise as she saw the bruise that was forming on my face.
"Lily!" James yelled in surprise at her sudden exposure of her chest.
"Lily!" Sirius yelled, looking as if Christmas had indeed come early.
"Sirius you've seen more chest today then most days, eh?" I remarked, laughing as James threw a pillow in Lily's direction. She blushed as she clutched it close, her face the same color as her hair.
"Finally getting some more, Padfoot?" James asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Well, no, my dress kinda fell" I told him, embarassed but not letting Sirius get a shagging point against James. I had found out that they started keeping tract and bet that they could beat each other. Lately Sirius had been commenting that James' had been getting shagged so often he was surprised he wasn't limping.
"Oh that's what they all say. But what happened to you guys?" Lily asked, looking concerned.
"Oh, well that's a fun story" I began, seating myself on the edge of the bed.
Well, hope you liked it! I did, lol. It's a very gross chapter xP And Noel's accent is Irish (I couldn't remember what nationality she was at the time I wrote she had an accent) Also, there are some inside jokes here because a lot of people that read my story go to school with me. Please r&r!
