Chapter Ten: The Room

A tall, pale girl with long back hair and blue-green eyes walked into the Great Hall, clutching the arm of an equally pale male with black hair and cold, dark blue eyes. They sat at the Slytherin table together. Regulus, the mentioned male, looked around coolly, as if daring anyone to talk to him. The girl had a bored expression her face, her eyes just as cold and murderous.

"I can't believe Mcgonagall had the nerve to put you in detention for hexing that Hufflepuff girl." She said quietly, tugging at the silver and green scarf around her neck, taking it off.

"I know, pathetic, isn't it? It's not like I hurt her much. She was ugly in the first place." Regulus said with a roll of his eyes. His eyes narrowed angrily as six people entered the Hall, mainly at the couple in the back, Lynn and Sirius.

"Oh…them…"

"One of these days I'll get them." He hissed as the food appeared.

"Just leave it be, Regulus, he's not worth it, he's a traitor, leave him to his own fate."

"I know Katherine, but can't help it. He thinks he's so high and mighty, I'll kick him down a few notches."

I suppose he does deserve it. His ego's too big for his own good." Katherine said, watching the blue-eyed boy across the hall from them.

Regulus smirked and began to fill up his plate. "Prat won't touch me while he's he knows mum and dad will be on his arse about it."

"See, just shows you why he's not worth the time." Katherine also began to eat, trying to ignore the group on the other side of the hall; also trying to redirect Regulus' train of thought away from his elder brother and his new girlfriend.

Regulus finished and sighed, "Should we head back to the dorms?"

"You go ahead, I'm going to sneak outside for a bit"

"You sure?" Regulus asked.

"Yeah." she smiled and leaned over, kissing him on the cheek. "I'll be back in later."

"Right"

Katherine wrapped her scarf tightly around her neck and walked out of the great hall, her long dark cloak flowing behind her as she stepped out into the dimly lit hall. Regulus also stood up, eyeing Sirius and Lynn before grabbing his scarf and also walking out of the common room, heading in the opposite direction as Katherine.

James was the first to break the tiered silence. "So, did you talk to Lily yet?" He asked eagerly.

Lynn laughed and shook her head. "I've been with you guys since you've asked, remember?" She teased.

"Oh yeah..."

Lynn noticed that Remus was beginning to immerse himself into the same book. "Is it really that good?" She asked. He nodded without looking up, already wrapped up in it.

"Don't mind 'ol Moony, he's always been a bookworm." Sirius said teasingly. Remus pretended to not hear him. Either that, or really didn't. Suddenly Sirius expression changed. Lynn followed his gaze to the table on the other side of the Hall.

"Sirius..." Lynn said in a warning tone. "If you try to hex him again, Dumbledore is going to suspend you. You don't want to have to answer to your parents do you?" Sirius growled and busied himself with eating.

Lynn didn't feel like eating, so she just waited for the others to be done, slowly sipping on pumpkin juice. Remus was the first to be done, excusing himself and walking away, still immersed in his book, so much in fact he nearly ran into a wall. James and Peter left later, complaining about homework, leaving she and Sirius alone.

Lynn yawned. "It's so cold out, I feel like just crawling under a blanket and going to bed."

"Aw, and leave me alone?"

"Guess I can't then huh?"

Sirius smirked and leaned over the table but Lynn quickly pulled away and shook her head. "No, not in public."

His smirk widened. "Then let's go somewhere more private." He took her arm and started down the hallway, exiting from the place the Hufflepuffs normally do.

"Where are we going!"

"You'll see…"

Sirius led her through endless hallways that twisted in strange ways till they stopped at a dead end, encased completely in darkness. "Uh Siri, you do realize this is a dead end, right?" She asked skeptically. He muttered something under his breath and the wall slid open, revealing a large circular room littered with pillows. "How did you-?"

"Found it while exploring with James." He said, cutting her off as the wall closed behind them and candles sprang to life.

"whoa…"

Sirius then kissed her and led her to some pillows, putting an arm around her waist.

"Hey wait…we've only been seeing each other for two days!" Lynn protested. Sure, she loved him, but she was the kind of person who would rather have slower relationships.

"Oh….fine…." He said, pouting cutely.

She rolled her eyes and sat next to him, putting her head on his shoulder. "Y'know you could've taken me outside."

"Too many people sneak out," he said with a shrug.

"Yeah, James and Lily are going to be among them soon."

KTye03: An awkward silence passed between them. Lynn hated when this happened, but it was hard for her. They were both so…different. "I want to go to bed, I suddenly feel tiered." She said with a fake yawn. "Could you take me back to the dormitory?"

"Fine…" Sirius said, not at all enthusiastic.

Lynn reached over and kissed him gently before they left, the candles extinguishing magically behind them. She kissed his cheek before going to bed as well, but he caught her with other intentions.

"You owe me, love," he said with a smirk.

"Do I now?" She raised a brow.

"Yes." He pulled her closer, putting a hand to her waist. "For one, you'll have to get over your shyness. Two…" He lifted her chin and kissed her seductively, knowing fully well on how to kindle the fire in a woman's heart, and also how to extinguish it. Though he wasn't planning on doing that yet.

Starting to feel aroused, she pulled away. "Siri…"

"Just enjoy it." He said, his smirk widening as he pulled her into an armchair,

She struggled briefly, but fell into the next one, entwining her fingers in his hair. He drew her into his own fire, expertly lifting her into the dark spaces of love as the flames of passions grew and the flames in the grate died into their embers. He continued to draw her in, her fire burning brighter as they entwined, his hands moving around and then-

"Sirius stop! I can't!" Lynn cried out.

He sighed and got off of her knowing fully well he had gone beyond her intent, but no where near his.

"I'm sorry."

"It's alright, it is not your fault." He forced out with a smile.

She leaned up and kissed him tenderly. "Just please understand me…"

"I understand." He said shortly.

"Thanks…" She smiled and left.

Sirius sighed and went back to his dorm room where James was waiting. "You don't look too happy Padfoot, something wrong mate?"

"Lynn's not warming up. Almost got her to, but she stopped."

James shrugged. "Just wait."

Sirius shrugged back. "It's been a while since a girl hasn't thrown herself at my feet."

James rolled his eyes. "She pretty much did, remember? And if you keep this up, you're going to date all of the girls in Gryffindor and Ravenclaw."

"I can have goals can't I?"

He chuckled. "I guess."
