Chapter 9: Breakfast Fun

Hermione woke up on the couch the next morning. She slowly raised herself up. Sirius laid on the floor beside of the couch. She smile at how he stayed with her all night.

Reaching down, she gently shook his shoulder. "Sirius wake up, it's morning."

He drew his brows together, but nonetheless turned over onto his back. Opening his eyes he gazed up at her and a smile broke out across his face.

"This would be one hell of a vision to wake up to every morning. Good morning," he said, raising up and scratching his head. "How are you feeling this morning?"

"Better thanks. And thank you for staying with me last night though that floor looks hard. You should have woke me up and I would have went to bed."

Sirius stopped her before she could say anything else. "It was no problem. Come on, I'll point you in the direction of your room."

He stood and waited for Hermione to slowly stand. She saw his gaze run over her hair. Self consciously she ran her hands over her hair.

He smiled, "You look beautiful."

"Thanks for lying."

He laughed. "Come on Hermione." He took her to the door that led to the girl's rooms. "That way. Just scream for Lily." And then he was gone.

Hermione did not need help finding her dorm. She knew right where it was. Walking in, she found everyone still asleep. Then she noticed the trunk at the end of an empty bed.

That must be mine, she thought heading over to it. Opening it she found her school clothes and the necessary books for her classes.

Lily woke up then and offered her a smile. "Are you feeling better?"

"Yes, thank you."

Lily got up and went to her own trunk. Opening it, she took out a change of clothes. "Come on, I'll show you where the bathroom is."

Remembering that she was not supposed to know where the bathrooms, she rose and followed Lily. About an hour later, they headed on down to the Great Hall.

The guys already were down there and saved them a place. Hermione sat between Remus and Sirius while Lily sat between James and Peter.

Hermione looked up at Peter. How could he betray them in the future? What made him become so evil?

"Hey," Sirius said in her ear, "feeling alright?"

"Yes," she lied.

"No your not," Sirius said and shoved a piece of bacon in her mouth to stop her refute.

She chew the bacon up and went to say something to Sirius when he shoved another piece of bacon in her mouth. He only smiled when she glared at him.

"You need to eat," he said innocently. Then he began loading her plate with food.

When he handed it to her, she was torn between eating it or throwing it in his face. Hunger won out and she began eating.

"That's a good girl," Sirius said sending a smile in her direction.

What he received for that comment was a face full of scrambled eggs. everyone tried to hide their laughter but they were not succeeding at it.

Hermione just smiled sweetly. "You need to eat."

By now, everyone was laughing out loud. Sirius looked at Hermione pretending to be offended. "I'm hurt Hermione. After I spent all night beside you on that hard floor."

"Oh now you use it to your advantage."

"Get used to it Hermione," James interjected, "he does it all the time."

"Yeah well, he looks much better with eggs on his face," Hermione said thoughtfully.

"I agree," came the voices of James, Lily, and Remus.

"Thank you," Sirius said as he began licking off the from around his mouth.

"Come on," Lily said, "class time."
