Hello again!! I'm so sorry for the mistakes in the last chapter. If you haven't guessed if I miss spell a word my computer fixes it and that's not always good! With out further ado (probably spelt that wrong) my next chapter!


Sirius stood absolutely still just so he could see the faces of the Slytherins who rose up from the ground, most screaming, and run as fast as they could to the Hospital Wing. He laughed to himself when they had all left, and finished his what proved to be treacherous path to the Hospital Wing.

By the time he had arrived, must of the Slytherins seemed to be leaving and had the boils removed. Most snarled in his direction, but Sirius knew he was safe from any attacks for Madame Pomfrey was present. "Late aren't you?" Madame Pomfrey said irritably. "Well, what have you got to say for yourself?"

"Sorry," Sirius said in a quite whisper. "There was um… an obstacle in my path."

"That's a simple way of phrasing it," Madame Pomfrey said angrily. "You drank a potion so you could not be hexed, cursed, etc. so your healing process could continue properly. Don't try to use this to hurt others or I'll take it off and when they do hex you it will be a LOT more pain."

Sirius nodded his head and took a seat in one of the comfy chairs next to one of the beds. "Don't just sit there relaxingthere getup andsweepthe floor, and I don't want to see any magic," She yelled loudly.

Sirius then spent two hours sweeping the floor with an old brown that's bristles fell out after every sweep. Sirius saw this as a hopeless cause and eventually just pretended to be sweeping, in fear that the whole brown would fall apart if he kept using it. Madame Pomfrey dismissed him at around 9:30 and Sirius rushed off to meet James.

He entered the Gryffindor common, and like yesterday, everyone feared to go near him. I wonder if there is some plot against me Sirius thought because that would be awesome. Even Lily Evans did not comment on his late arrival into the Common room. He found James sitting by himself in one the comfy chairs, this one faced out the window toward the Dark Forest. "You ready to go?" Sirius asked in a hushed tone.

"Nope," James responded in a voice that sounded as though one had lost all hope. "Peter said when he was walking around outside the grounds a teacher was patrolling it. This, Sirius, could very well be our last night in the castle. I think Dipet has foundmy invisibility cloak!"

Sirius rolled his eyes. "It's not going to be our last night in the castle we would have already been expelled by now so we could be on the train in the morning," Sirius said sarcastically.

James did not laugh at his joke, but instead stared out the window in a depressed way. "If I was expelled I don't know what I'd do," James said softly. "I'd probably be some sort of a beggar."

"Will you stop being so depressed we are not going to get expelled!" Sirius said loudly, almost shouting.

The common room went quite and all eyes turned to Sirius who sighed loudly. "Will you all just go back to your own conversations and stop caring about everything I do!" Sirius shouted at the lot of them.

Most people turned their backs away from him, believing him to be utterly rude. "One has to wonder how they all seem to hate me," Sirius said as he slouched into a chair next to James.

"Well to start off you're rude, annoying, and stubborn and well we all pretty much hate your guts," A sweet voice said from over his shoulder. Sirius turned around to see Rei smiling at him. "You see Sirius I fear that your attitude is the problem. It's just horrible," She said sarcastically.

James and Sirius both laughed. "She's right you know," James said in mock agreement.

Later that night, after the common room was empty, Sirius sat by himself, looking at the fire, and remarking on its vigor. He began to register what James had said to him early that night, and for the first time, Sirius truly felt nervous. What if I am going to get expelled?


Two months had past since Sirius had traveled into the Dark Forest. It was nearing Christmas when he and James finally sat back to remark on the event with laughter. Remus, however, did not find it to be funny and was very distressed that they had actually carried out the plan.

It was Christmasbreak and most people seemed to have left the school, including Peter and James. Sirius, prior to the event, had received threatening letters from his parents telling him that if he went home for break he would never come back to school. They of course bragged about Regulus and how he was wonderful and how much they hated him. Sirius ignored the letters and decided, for him self to stay at school.

Sirius found himself on Christmas Eve in the common room which had cleared out for the evening and Sirius tiredly swooped down onto the couch. He watched the vivid fire dance in the fireplace. Sirius surveyed the common room from were he was lying. The common room was decorated with wreaths and pieces of holly were sparatically sticking out of the walls. It looked at though a Christmas spell had gone wrong, but yet it was very peaceful and serine to Sirius. A lone mistletoe hung from the ceiling.

Sirius rose from his comfy resting spot on the sofa, feeling as though he was about to fall asleep and walked toward the boys' dormitory, eyeing the mistletoe. When he had almost reached the door a hurried figure hustled in. It seemed to be carrying heavy bags, and not so gracefully tripped over it own feet and went tumbling to the ground. It lay sprawled on the ground not making an attempt to get up.

Sirius walked over to it laughing slightly as he soon realized it to be Rei, her long, black hair covering her face. "A little late to be Christmas shopping, isn't it?" He asked muffling a laugh. She nodded her head, hair bouncing with it. "You need a hand up?" Sirius asked politely.

Once again Rei nodded, as Sirius helped pull her up. "I always forget Christmas until the day before," Rei said, in an almost defensive voice. "No one ever reminds me I only ever remember when people try to cast Christmas spells on this room and if you can guess none of them ever work."

Sirius smiled at her response. "Well I got get going or I'm bound to fall asleep on my feet," Sirius said closing his eyes and turning around.

As he turned Rei grabbed his shirt, whirled him around and kissed him on his lips. His eyes opened as he watched Rei, who had turned a shade of dark crimson, run up the stairs giggling lightly to her self. Sirius looked above and saw the Mistletoe. He chuckled to himself as he actually walked up the stairs to the dormitory.

When he entered Remus was still awaking and turned his head to look at him. "What are you so happy about?" He asked in an investigator type tone.

"Oh, nothing," Sirius replied mischievously.

Remus nodded his head, obviously not convinced, and turned over in his bed trying to go to asleep. Sirius changed to his pajamas and rolled over in his bed to, trying to make a desperate attempt to fall asleep though he could not for in his mind he just kept thinking that five minutes ago he had received his first kiss. Little did our little Sirius know that he would have many, many, many more kisses underneath the mistletoe.

He was awoken fro his pleasant slumber by Remus, who had been very noisy in walking up. Remus poked Sirius in attempt to get him to rise. Srius instead rolled over, underestimated the space until the end of the bed, and feel off. He groaned as he rose up to look at the neat stack of presents at the end of hism bed.

Sirius practically jumped when he saw that his parents had sent him a present. It was the first one he opened, and he did this with much caution. He slowly tilted the lid off of the box and ink squattered him straight in the face. Remus was on the floor laughing, while Sirius fumed. In the bottom of the box was a short letter from his brother telling him how funny it would have been to see his face when the ink squirted.

Sirius sighed as he opened the gifts from his friends which consisted of mainly candy. As he and Remus got dressed and headed down for breakfast they caught the sight of Arthur Weasley wearing a huge, wool sweater that had a large A in the front. The boys laughed as Arthur's girlfriend, Molly cooed over how cute he looked.

And I leave you, my readers, with this ending. And that's a conclusion to another installment of my story. I would like to ask a favor and inquire if anyone knows how to make my profile and such appear when you search my name for every time I've tried I have been unsuccessful. Thank you
