Chapter 20
The train arrived at Hogwarts around 6:00. At that time, Sirius was dozing slightly in his seat, Remus was reading a book, and James was watching both of them. He was worried about Sirius. It still seemed way to easy for him to have gained his ability to speak again. Maybe...maybe something even worse had happened to his friend while he was at his parents house. Maybe his friend was trying to hide something even worse. But...Sirius had seemed way to happy for something to be even remotely wrong.
James sighed in frustration. What the heck was wrong with him? He was usually the rational one who didn't think illogically. Remus glanced up from his book to look at James. He smiled weakly and then turned back to his book. There was also Remus to worry about as well, James realized with a start. He was always vanishing once a month. And when he returned, he looked like crap.
The train came to a halt and James stood up quickly. Shaking Sirius's shoulder and attempting to get their trunks down at the same time, he somehow succeeded. Sirius looked up out of bleary blue eyes and then smiled weakly. He stood up and stretched his arms out. He opened his mouth to try and say something, but when no sound came out, he looked down at his feet with a sad expression on his face. James could feel sorrow radiating off of Sirius. And by glancing at Remus, he could too.
"Oh well," Sirius mouthed and dragged his trunk out of the compartment. James and Remus followed quickly. Something's deffinately wrong, James thought to himself as he watched his two friends. From that moment on, he was determined to discern the ghosts that haunted his two best friends.
When they arrived at the castle, they abandoned their trunks and went to find seats in the Great Hall. Just as Sirius was about to sit down, Snape's voice called out, "How ya doing mudblood lover? Having fun staying at the filthy Potter's house, blood traitor. I heard that your parents beat you up good! But you're not any good. Only a mute!"
Anger immediately flashed into Sirius's eyes and he shouted out (much to everyone's surprise) ,"At least I wash my hair more than once a month, Snivillus! Not to mention the fact that even when I was mute I had far more talent than you ever had! So what does that tell you? Oh and what about the fact that I actually have friends, huh? I don't see yours anywhere!"
After he said all that, his eyes widened as if he had just realized what had happened. He could talk again! But pure joy was replaced by worry immediately. When would the next muteness spell hit? How would he cope with that? He sighed and sat down. He would deal with that later, when he did become mute again.
Everyone was staring at him in surprise, he noticed dimly. Even James and Remus. Oh well, he thought bittlerly, they probably all liked it when I couldn't say anything. Sirius could, however, enjoy seeing the shocked expression on Snape's face.
"You know what mate," James said softly to him when he finally sat down,"I think your ability to speak again might not have been the best thing at that precise moment."
Sirius grinned. He knew that James was thrilled that he could speak it was just...sometimes it was better when Sirius was silent. Sirius knew that he could have quite a dirty mouth whenever someone tried to bully him into something or insult him. That was part of the reason he got so many beatings as a child. Of course, it didn't help that his parents hated him, but hey, there's life.
"I know, but...someone has to tell him off once in a while. It might as well be me. Plus," he added, a sly smile spreading across his face,"there was almost nothing more priceless than the expression on his face when he heard me yelling back."
Remus shook his head, but he smiled anyways. He couldn't believe that just a few months ago he had thought that Sirius Black was the scum of the earth. It was hard to imagine a time when he didn't have any friends. It was hard to imagine a time when he wasn't happy as well. Life just seemed to be swell.
Food suddenly appeared in front of all of the students. Hungrily, the three boys started grabbing for chicken legs and rolls and whatever else was within their immediate reach. After they finished stuffing themselves, however, the regretted it immensely.
As they were walking up to their dormitory, Sirius groaned,"Oh, I'm so full. My stomach hurts!"
"Mine too," James concured, holding his stomach.
"I'm thinking you guys ate too much," Remus said, watching his two friends moan and groan. Unlike the two dark haired boys, Remus had been sensible and hadn't eaten everything that was in front of them. He was quite content with how much he had eaten.
When they stepped into their dormitory, Sirius instantly ran to the bathroom. Through the closed door they could hear him retching.
James glanced at Remus, "I think he ate too much."
A.N. teeheehee. i'm so bored! I love mountain dew. i'm sitting here trying not to twitch too much, that's how hyper i am. i love it!!!! oh dear, i should probably not have drunk the entire two liter bottle. looks sick for a moment then grins like a moron oh well, it still tastes good. Now, have you ever had mountain dew syrrup?
