Chapter 2- Fights and Irony

Sirius growled as he poked at the mark roughly, causing Serena to yelp and send him an angry glare.

"What'd you do that for?" questioned Serena as she glared at Sirius.

Sirius glared back at her as he rubbed his thumb over the mark, more gently this time, and growled low in his throat as jealousy reared it ugly head, for only a few months ago Serena had been his and now she was some one else's and he hated that, the thought of someone else's hands on his woman, his lover, his old companion in crime.

"What's this?" asked Sirius softly as he stopped glaring at her and let his sadness and betrayl show in his eyes.

Serena saw all these things and sighed tired and closed her eyes sadly, "Sirius we've been over, we're both dating other people now, it shouldn't matter to you."

Sirius looked hurt by this statement but knew that it was true, after all both had moved on; however, unlike Serena, Sirius had not been able to just forget her rather he found himself still madly in love with her. With a sigh however Serena leaned over and embraced him wrapping her arms around him and then leaning into him, which caused Sirius to grin slightly as his once damp mood vanished and he gently pulled her onto his lap and into his arms. Serena had not wished to be in this position as she had moved on and was rather happy with her boyfriend but with a tired sigh she curled up and fell asleep not knowing what else to do.

-a few hours later-

Serena awoke feeling better but was surprised to feel warm arm surrounding her and to feel herself no longer on Sirius's lap. Slightly disoriented she glanced around quickly and found that she was currently on the couch of the Gryffindor common room nestled close to Sirius who laid beside her holding her gently in his embrace even as he slumbered. She almost had to giggle at the picture of innocence he made when he was asleep; his hair fell into his face, his face relaxed and peaceful . Turning her body away from him slightly she sighed as she found that it was rather dark out and that they had more then likely missed dinner, however what startled her more was the fact the in the chair beside the couch sat a sleeping Remus who had managed to somehow curl up in a sort of ball shape and looked even more adorable then Sirius.

"Serena." called a voice from above and looking up she almost gasped upon seeing her boyfriend Lucius Malfoy standing there with an unreadable look on his face.

"Lucius, it's not what it looks like." stated Serena hurriedly.

Lucius took in the scene calmly then sneered at her , "What do you take me for, a fool?"

Serena sighed as she gently broke away from Sirius to stand beside Lucius careful not to make any noise, slowly she laid her hand on the sleeve of his robe but he shuck it off disgustedly.

"Don't touch me you low class Gryffindor filth." said Lucius as he spun on his heel and headed towards the portrait hole but Serena grasped a hold of the back of his robe before her could leave.

"Lucius don't do this, please you know that this isn't what it seems and you know that I'm over Sirius," cried out Serena as a few tears fell from her eyes.

Lucius turned and looked at her and wiped away her tears with his thumb before replying, "I almost want to believe you Serena but how can I when letters like this," he held up a piece of parchment, "have been brought to my attention."

Serena looked confused and then thoughtful before glancing towards the portrait hole and seeing not only Severus Snape and Regulas Black but Narcissa Black as well, and boy was she smirking.

Growling slightly she glared at Narcissa angrily before replying to Lucius, "Lucius, believe me I didn't write that note, I swear to you I didn't."

Lucius bent down slowly and their lips met harshly in a battle of wills before he turned away an walked out the portrait hole with the other Slytherins without saying a word. Serena couldn't help herself for as soon as the portrait hole closed she fell to her knees and wept bitter tears, and struggled when she felt a strong pair of arms encircle her thinking that it was Sirius, however turning around she was greeted by the worried face of Remus and throwing her arms around her werewolf friend she wept into his shoulder as he tried his best to comfort her.

"Remus I think I love him," cried Serena as she felt such a pain in her soul.

Remus looked at her sadly and closed his eyes as a single tear fell from his eyes as he pulled her closer to him before taking a deep breath and speaking as calmly as he could, "We'll find a way to get him back then Sere, If you truly do love him then you should be with him."

"But Narcissa…" Serena found herself cut off by Remus.

"Narcissa doesn't stand a chance, did you not see the look in Malfoy's eyes? He was almost bearing his soul to you Sere, and only to you." stated Remus harshly.

Serena pulled away to look up at her werewolf friend and saw only truth in his eyes and sniffled slightly as she tried to stop the tears, "Why are you helping me, I thought you didn't like me and Lucius together?"

Remus grinned at her and shook his head as a chuckle slipped from his mouth, "I haven't the slightest idea. Though I do know that you are my best friend and no Slytherin whore is going to steal away the person you love."

Serena looked shocked at what Remus said before a slight giggle fell from her lips, "I think Sirius and James have been a bad influence on you."

Remus chuckled and nodded slightly, "I suppose they have. Tomorrow we'll talk about this plan in detail, now however we should be heading up stairs and to bed, now off with you."

Serena smiled happily and hugged him before bouncing off towards the girls dormitory. Remus however stayed rooted to the spot an laughed at his own stupidity, he was going to help the love of his life get back the love of HER life. Oh the irony of it all… Without another thought Remus headed
up to the boy dormitory, deciding to allow Sirius to sleeping on the couch instead of waking him up.

Yay! People actually reviewed and actually liked it. Thanx! Most of the people who reviewed seem to like the idea of a Lucius and Serena so I think that's what it'll be… for the moment at least… Oh and I know Serena is out of character and I'll try to get her more into character as the story progresses. See she isn't exactly a player, for say, rather she just a bit eccentric;) I have a few ideas for upcoming chapters; but any idea, suggestions, comments, pairing idea's are all welcome! Thanx to everyone who reviewed for the 1st chapter, I hope you all like this one as well!

Luv ya all,
