You Know You Want Her

It was Coral Peck's first year to Hogwarts; She'd been going to an all witches school in America till now, and was transfering to Hogwarts. She'd be starting in the 5th year, as she was fifteen. She had bright red hair, and bright violet eyes with flecks of yellow and green in them. Her mother didn't think that the American school she was going to was good enough, so she decided Hogwarts.

Coral loaded her bags onto the train, and began to look for a compartment. As she looked in the windows, she spotted one compartment. It had three boys inside. One had rather messy black hair, another sandy brown, and another had smooth shiny black hair. She slid the door open and poked her head inside. "Is it alright if I sit with you? Everywhere else is full." said Coral timidly. She wasn't usually this quiet; she was just nervous.

"Sure. We've got two more spaces so we'll have room for left for Peter, too." said the sandy haired boy. "Thank you." said Coral, giving him a small smile. She sat down next to that boy, and across from the one with the gorgeous black hair. He was rather good looking. "My name's Coral Peck. I'm new." she said, shaking all of their hands. "I'm Sirius, this is James, and Remus." said the good looking boy. She noticed he was staring at her.

"Nice to meet you." "So, where're you from, if you're new?" said Sirius. "I went to an All-Witches American school. It wasn't that bad. My mom just didn't like it very much." said Coral, shrugging. Remus was now reading, in a completely different world. "American, eh? I've heard some pretty wild things about American girls." said Sirus, smirking at her. Coral raised an eyebrow. "Uh, like what?" "Like they're picky about blokes;They only date good looking ones.And they have to be good kissers." said Sirius. James and Coral rolled their eyes. "That, first of all, isn't wild. Second, only some girls are like that. I prefer smart boys." said Coral. She seemed drawn to this boy, even though he seemed rather arogant.

Sirius thought she was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen; Nothing that had ever entered Hogwarts before. If she'd been there before, he'd been temporarily blind. She was a goddess. Her long red hair was wavy and smooth and went to her lowerback. She was really tan, most british girls weren't. Her eyes were amazing. Violet, yellow, and green. He'd never seen anything like her. Her body was curvy, feminine. Her voice sounded like the most beautiful choir on earth. He wanted her immediately. She sat down across from him, and when she shook his hand, a shiver went down his back. He dropped a few hints; She liked smart boys. His marks were alright. Not the best, but he could get good marks. He just wanted to be next to her. He told Remus that he wanted to sit next to the window, so Remus switched seats with him. He didn't look at the scenery at all; Just Coral. And James took notice.

Remus finished his book and began to talk to Coral about book they'd read, such as the the Iliad, and other books Sirius didn't know existed. Soon they reached the castle. "You know you're going to have to be sorted?" said James as they jumped into a carrige. Sirius made sure to get as close to Coral as possible.

"Oh, I've already been sorted into Gryffindor. They had me come during the summer." said Coral. She moved closer to the wall of the carrige; farther from Sirius. He frowned, disapointed. Maybe she'd warm up. Who was he kidding? He was Sirius Black! The most fancied bloke in Hogwarts! Maybe? No. She would warm up. And soon. They sat down, and all of the first years were sorted. After the feast, they went to the Common Rooms. Coral said good night, and Sirius smiled at her. She smiled back.

As soon as Coral was up the stairs, Remus and James were immediatly on him. "You fancy the American newbie, don't you?" said James, backing him onto the couch. "Coral. She has a name James." said Remus. "Whatever. You fancy her, don't you? Ah, he does! I can tell! Sirius, you should know by now that I can read your mind like a book. She's pretty, nice body. You're completely into her." said James, sitting down in a chair accross from Sirius. "She's a goddess..." muttered Sirius, talking to him self. A dreamy look came over his face. "You do fancy her, don't you?" said Remus, in awe. Sirius nodded. "She doesn't seem to fancy me, though. That's a problem for me." said Sirius.

As soon as Coral woke up that morning, she quickly changed, and went into the Common Room. She was two hours early. She sat down in one of the chairs by a window, and gazed out at the lake. About ten minutes later, she heard footsteps from the boys' staircase. She looked up, and saw Sirius there. He was topless, with a pair of black felt pajama pants that were too long for him.

"Morning." he said, his eyes opening. "Good morning. How come you're up so early?" asked Coral. "Thinking about...someone." he said, sitting down on the chair next to her. "A girl?" said Coral, smirking and cocking an eyebrow. "Yeah, actually. How'd you know?" said Sirius, now awake. "Female intuition." she said, shrugging. They sat there in silence for about a half an hour, untill Coral felt Sirius's eyes on her. She turned and looked at him, looking into his eyes. They were grayish-blue. Really very pretty.

"I seem really drawn to you." said Sirius, standing up and kneeling beside Coral's chair. "I'm drawn to you too..." whispered Coral, hoping he wouldn't hear. He did. He put his hand on her cheek, and she closed her eyes. "I don't know what it is about you Sirius..." whispered Coral. He didn't hear her. She placed her hand on his bare chest. She could feel how chisled and muscular he was.

She pulled away, standing up. "I can't. I barely know you! Maybe...When I know who you are...What type of person..." said Coral. She ran out to the grounds, and sat under a oak tree. She let the sun shine on her face, it's warming glow letting her nerves calm down. The warmth made her drift off slowly to sleep...

"Coral? Coral! Coral, wake up." Someone was shaking her gently. She slowly opened her eyes. It was Sirius. She couldn't help but notice the joy that flooded through her veins when she saw him. She smiled at him. "You've missed breakfast, you know." said Sirius, putting out a hand to help her up. "I know. I wasn't hungrey." said Coral, taking his hand and standing up. She lost her footing and Sirius caught her just before she hit the ground in his arms. He smiled at her, and pulled her into him.

"I barely know you and I want you already..." whispered Sirius. "You have no idea..."
