::AN:: Booyaka! (Sound familiar any FF8 players? Hmm? lol)

I'm bored out of my mind so I'll respond to your reviews again! (yay)

Randomblinx- heh… pantalonnes… and, WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?! Did you not listen when I told you everything that is going to happen at the end?! GAH!! I should strangle you you stupid nitwit! What is your DEAL?! SHEESH! Oh, and by the way, I love you muches, and I'm eating lean pockets right now, so don't worry about feeding me… But might I add that it's 2:19 PM and you are STILL in bed!! ASLEEP!! You deserve every mean word in this review-response-thingy you lazy, lazy person!

Tintalu- Yes, boys are stupid. Whatever gave the impression that they weren't? (lol, kidding, kidding, Guys are smart... Somewhere…) And also, the word "Ehehehehe" is probably one that I have used more than any other word in the English language. It works wonders (ish).

Moviesavvy- Say no more! I don't exactly go around snogging my guy friends periodically, like Faylinn does in my story… But I know what you mean! Hah!

Jubily-Lollypops- Well, OKAY! lol, I hope you like the chappie!

Joy- Aw, thanks! That makes me feel all warm inside! (Or it could be the lean pockets, fresh out of the microwave…) And, I know, I keep telling people, the fights are MY favorite part! I now understand why JK Rowling must like making Ron and Hermione fight so much in the real books! (hahah)

Katie- Continued part of it? That's not the end! Keep reading! (lol) Don't leave me!!!

Padfootz-luvr- Aw, you're so sweet! All time favorite? That's so nice of you! Again with the warmness! What is it with you people? I'm going to die of like, heat stroke. (Well, no not really but, er, yeah.) And yeah… that line… Hahah. It's lines like that, you know? Spur of the moment sort of things… Hahah.

Gryffindors-Phoenix- I was wondering where the heck your review was! (lol) As soon as I got your review I opened up Word… Hahah. And thanks uberness for "Luffing it muches." But I can't take credit for that phrase! I got it out of one of my favorite books, 'Away Laughing On a Fast Camel' by Louise Rennison. It's really good, so go buy it! ALL OF YOU! (well, no, you don't have to but… yeah) But hey… "Toodle Pip!" THERE! Now you have to update! Hahah.

Thanks for the reviews! I love you peoples! (lol)

This one goes out to Katie, and I'm hoping I misunderstood her review and that she keeps reading… (lol)

Dear Tiny-book-that-is-actually-my-soul, and stuff,

Great Samurai in the sky!

Pass me some knickers and call me Samson!

Not that I am without knickers, of course. They're actually really pretty ones with these little lace bands around the top and then

Ahem.

I'm kind of hiding out in the private bathroom that there is for the guestroom. Sirius is, um, still in the guestroom. I said I had to pee.

He probably thinks I'm taking a poo.

Oh joy.

I thought he'd go look for James when we got inside, but no… He's like, following me everywhere!

Granted, he said he's tired and he wants to go to sleep, but still.

I need my space!

We are officially secretly going out now.

I think.

I'll have to ask him about that one but

"Um, Fay?" Faylinn heard Sirius say from the other side of the door. Faylinn jumped and hurriedly changed into her pajamas, that she had brought into the bathroom with her.

"Yeah, I'm just – Oh, ow." She said while he pulled her shirt over head, feeling a piece of her hair get caught and pull out. "Owie, owie." She mumbled to herself.

"You okay in there?"

"Fine! I'm just fi – Wah!" She stumbled over her pajama bottoms, which were far too long for her tiny legs. "I'm fine! Just… short!"

She heard him laughing. "You need some help?"

Faylinn shook her head, even though she knew he couldn't see her through the door. But what if he could? She blushed at that last thought and rolled her eyes, opening the door quickly to see Sirius standing there, his hand in the air, about to knock again. He raised an eyebrow at her.

"No thanks." She said in response to his question. "I think I can handle it."

"Sure thing." He said with a smirk.

Faylinn rolled her eyes when she saw his face moving towards hers slowly. "Could you move?" She asked, trying to move around him.

He grinned. "Problem, Tatum?" He asked slyly.

She nodded. "Yeh. I mean, yes. Would you mind stepping aside so I can pass by here? I still have my clothes in my hand and I need to brush my hair still and I –" She was silenced by his lips on hers for the fourth time that night.

"Er." She said intelligently when he pulled away a few moments later, pulling her forward by her shoulders and gently pushing her aside so that he could step into the bathroom. He shut the door behind him as he disappeared inside.

"Er?" She whispered to herself, balling her hands into fists at her sides. "Er?! Could I get more lame?!" She hissed under her breath, picking up Sirius's comb that still lay on the dresser and hastily combing her hair.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid. 'Er.' Er, I ask you? Merlin knows that was the lamest thing. Ever." Sirius heard Faylinn mumbling as he opened the bathroom door a minute later. Had she not heard the door open?

Apparently she was too busy fuming with herself to pay much attention to anything around her. He watched as she tossed the comb back onto the dresser and stomped over towards the bed, throwing the covers aside violently to flop face first into the pillow. He heard a muffled scream come from her.

"Frustrated, I see." He observed aloud, acknowledging his presence to her.

She gasped, lifting her face up and turning to look at him. "Oh shut up." She grumbled, then set her face back down into the pillow to let out a low groan.

"You shouldn't bottle up all your frustrations like that." Sirius suggested, stepping towards the bed and grabbing hold of the blanket that Faylinn had thrown to the foot of the bed. The pink haired girl before him rolled onto her back in one swift move and stared up at him blankly.

"What are you doing?" She asked flatly.

"Going to sleep." He explained, grinning.

She blushed, her whole face turning beet red in a matter of seconds. "What? Where?"

"Here."

"No, not here! I mean, yeah, here, okay. But, uh, no. I'm sleeping here."

"So am I."

"Uh… no."

"Uh… yeah."

Faylinn scowled. "There's a perfectly good floor right at your feet."

He shrugged. "But there's a perfectly good bed right here, too."

"Yeah, with me in it!" She shot back.

"Precisely."

Her eyes widened and her blush deepened even more – if possible. "Uh… wha?"

He smirked again. "I'm not going to do anything if you don't want me to." He said, when he realized that she was backing into the wall.

"I – I'm fine." She breathed. "You can sleep on the floor, yeah."

"Faylinn!"

She shook her head, then paused. "Where did you sleep last night, then?"

"The bed."

She blinked. "I slept in the bed."

"I know."

"GAH!" She exclaimed, throwing the pillow at him. "You sick, perverted little –" She raged.

He laughed. "I didn't do anything! You were just crying and then you fell asleep and you looked so comfortable so I couldn't exactly move and – Oh, Fay, that really hurts my feelings."

Faylinn was pulling the blankets up over herself and glaring at him angrily. "You're horrible." She hissed.

"Faylinn it's cold on the floor!" He protested.

She shrugged. "So get a blanket from somewhere." And with that she rolled onto her side, facing the wall, and closed her eyes.

Two seconds later, she was sprawled out on the floor, clutching the blanket and letting out an ear-splitting screech. She sat up, glaring at a chuckling Sirius and scoffed. "What the hell are you doing?! Trying to kill me?!"

He held his stomach. "You told me to get a blanket from somewhere, so I figured, there's a perfectly good blanket on the bed, and –"

"It was in use!" She hollered, standing up and shoving him backward into the dresser. She turned back around and picked up the blanket from the floor and dragged it back over to the bed, cursing under her breath.

"Faylinn." Sirius whispered into her ear from behind her.

She shivered and grinned, then turned around to face him, forcing a scowl onto her face. "Fine, then! But any monkey business, and I mean any at all, and you're not only on the floor, you'll be waking up to the absence of a –"

Sirius grimaced. "Say no more." He said holding a hand up as though he were giving an oath in court. "There will be no business of the monkeys."

Faylinn nodded and they layed down in bed next to each other. She could feel his warm body next to her and she pulled the blanket closer around her.

"Did no one ever teach you to share?" He asked with an amused look and pulled the blankets closer to himself.

"Hey!" She whispered pathetically, shivering at the sudden coldness. "It's cold…"

She felt him snuggle closer and chuckle. "Have no fear, milady! For Sirius is here."

She rolled her eyes and made a move for the blanket, but he dropped it onto the floor with an unconvincing "Oops" from his mouth. He grinned. "I guess we'll just have to cuddle for warmth, eh?" He said slyly. "And if we get really cold, well, then, Merlin knows what we might have to – Ow, woman! That's my arm!"

She smirked at the red mark that was appearing on his upper arm from where she had pinched him. She yawned loudly, without quite realizing the force behind it and then she blinked, her eyes watery. "I'm too tired for you to be annoying." She grumbled.

He grinned and wrapped his arms around her. "Alright then. Just go to sleep."

She yawned again, shaking her head into his shoulder and mumbling something about Lorraina Bobbitt and waking up in the morning without a certain something. He just smiled when he heard her go "No monkeys" and then closed his eyes, letting himself drift off into sleep.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

"Well, well, well, what do we have here?" James whispered gleefully to himself as he stood in the doorway to the guestroom. "I'll just, what, oh, are you awake Sirius?" He leaned closer into the room, holding onto the doorknob for support.

Sirius sat up in the bed and stared directly at James. "What the-!" He exclaimed jumping off of the bed and running towards James. He paused in the middle of the room and looked back at Faylinn, who was curled up into a ball on her side and still fast asleep. Turning back to James, he scowled. "Get out." He hissed, shoving his best friend into the hallway and closing the guestroom door, leaving both of them standing out in the hallway.

James grinned. "Well, well, well," he began, "it seems that not only do you fancy a shag, and fancy Faylinn, but you fancy a shag with Faylinn. This is glorious! This is, this is BLACKMAIL!"

Sirius rolled his eyes. "Okay, keep your voice down, crazy boy." He raised and eyebrow at James. "And what gave you the impression that I fancied a shag with Faylinn? We were just sleeping. I don't like her like that, I told you. Do you not listen? Do you really just stare at people when they're going on and on and on and –"

"I saw you two kissing!" James hissed lowly, stealing a glance back at the door and bringing his voice down to a low whisper. "And I don't see what you're so ashamed about. It's not like she's the giant squid or something. It's okay to go out with her."

"I'm not!" Sirius protested, shaking his head. "We're just friends."

"Friends who snog periodically?!" James shot back.

Sirius shrugged. "Oh, well, I don't… I don't know."

James grabbed his friend's arm and led him down the hall and into his own room. "Sit." He ordered. Sirius sat down on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at James.

"Okay, okay…" He mumbled.

James shook his head. "No, actually, Sirius. It's not okay." He started pacing the room, casting worried and angry glances at Sirius. "Listen, Padfoot. I… I know you, okay?"

Sirius nodded slowly. "Uh, yeah, Prongs. Obviously."

James nodded. "Yes. And I know the way you get with girls."

The other boy shrugged. "What are you going on about now?"

"You!" James hissed. "You can't just do like you normally do!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Faylinn!" James exclaimed. "You can't treat her like you have all the other girls you've been with!"

Sirius blinked. "What?"

James nodded. "It's different now, Sirius. First of all, you're older now. You should know better than to just… act the way you do… with girls…"

"I'm not that bad, James!"

"Yes you are!" James countered. "Okay, and second of all! Faylinn is our friend! She's my friend, Remus's friend, Peter's friend, Lily's friend; everyone wants to be her friend practically, they just don't know how to act around her. But, Sirius, she's your friend, too!"

Sirius nodded. "Yeah I guess. What about it?"

"Well, Padfoot! It's all well now, but what about a month from now? Or, knowing you, a week from now? You're willing to risk your whole friendship with Faylinn just to be her boyfriend for a short period of time?"

Sirius shook his head. "It's not like that!"

"But it is! It's the same, Sirius! It's not like you've changed! You're still YOU!" James persisted. He scowled at his friend. "And furthermore, I won't allow this to continue."

Sirius stared blankly at his friend. "You what?"

"I won't let you be anything more than a friend to Faylinn. I won't let you hurt her. It's not right, she hasn't done anything to you!"

"Yes she has!" Sirius proclaimed, standing up. "She – she –"

"She what, Sirius? She hasn't done anything to deserve what you're bound to do with her. You don't know! You don't see all those girls moping around the halls all the time because they're brokenhearted over you! You can't do that to Faylinn!"

Sirius shook his head. "Maybe I won't! Maybe it'll be different this time!"

James raised an eyebrow. "And maybe you'll live happily ever after and have wee little babies!" He shook his head. "No, Sirius. Listen to me! You stay away from Faylinn! I don't want her to get hurt, that's not fair."

"You can't tell me not to see her!" He hissed back.

"Yes I can. And I am. You, Sirius Black, leave Faylinn Tatum alone or –"

"No!" Sirius said, shoving his friend backward by the shoulders.

James blinked. "What?"

"I'm not going to just – just! No! I'm not going to hurt her, James! I – I – I really care about her, you know?"

James shook his head. "No, Sirius, I don't know. You don't tell me what goes on between you and Faylinn. I had to find out by hiding in the bushes and catching you two snogging the day away."

Sirius shrugged. "So I don't talk about her to you. Maybe I just want to keep her to myself, there's nothing wrong with that."

James sighed. "Listen, Padfoot. I get that you have a thing for her, okay? But if you hurt her…"

"I won't." The other boy said quietly.

"There's no way to know right now." James said. "I'm not going to warn you again, Sirius. You can do whatever you want; you're a big boy. But could you try and do the right thing? Just this once? Please? For Faylinn?"

::AN:: Ah, hope you like this chappie. And just to "spice things up" or whatever you wanna call it, they should be heading back to Hogwarts in the next chappie! (yay) Oh yeah, and for those of you who don't know, LORRAINA BOBBITT (I might have spelt her name wrong, though) was the American woman who cut off her husband's "Bobbitt" a few years back. (I know, cringe and back away, right? lol)

I know it's awful rude to be begging for reviews again and again, but er, please review!
