Disclaimer: I own none of the Harry Potter characters or settings or any of the music I intend on using in this story later on. I do own all other characters in which you do no reconize. I also don't own George Harrisons' "I've Got My Mind Set On You"(LOVE THAT SONG!) or Marvin Gayes' "Ain't No Mountain High Enough". Wish I did though.

Chapter Fourteen- Victory Interruptions

And this time I know it's for real
The feelings that I feel
I know if I put my mind to it
I know that I really can do it

I got my mind set on you
Set on you
I got my mind set on you
Set on you

As Rodolphus stepped into the shower and allowed the hot water to fall onto his body, his muscles began to relax. He didn't feel like heading back to Slytherin Common Room just yet. Lucius and Sean would be there. Two people he didn't want to see at the moment. They would only bitch to him about the team loosing.

'Rodolphus? Rodolphus!'

Rodolphus stuck his head out of the shower to find himself staring at Bellatrix. She was wearing a short black jean skirt, black knee high boots and a black tanktop under a fur jacket. Not the best clothes to wear while watching a Quidditch game but he didn't mind. They were good enough for him.

'What are you still doing here?' she asked.

'What's it look like I'm doing?' he replied.

'Don't speak to me like that!' She hissed.

'Just let me finish my shower in peace.' He replied, retreating his head back into the shower.

He then heard a rusel of clothing and felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to see that Bellatrix had joined him in the shower. He took a sharp intake of breath. Her body was magnificant. Her hair dripping wet and the droplets running off her body was exquisite. She looked beautiful.

'Relax. You act like you've never seen me, let alone any other girl naked before.'

He didn't speak. It was amazing how fast Bellatrix could go from being bitchy and and well, bitchy, to a passionate creature who showed her love for him in more ways than imaginable. They were in love. A mad, desperate passion, to be sure, but love nonetheless. It was not something obvious, but it was evident in shared glances and in the quiet interludes they shared when they thought no one else was looking.

'You don't have to worry about Lucius and Sean, you know.' She said, encircling her arms around his neck.

'What are you talking about?'

'I know you don't want to hear them bitch at you but you don't have to worry. Lucius is "tending" to my sister and Sean took Kelly out for her bithday.'

'That's not my main concern. I was instructed to take her out today while playing so we could bring her to The Dark Lord and I failed.'

'Today wasn't your fault. My disgrace of a cousin just had to play hero.' She replied, her lips inches away from his own, 'We'll get her though, love. We'll get her.'

'It's awfully loud in here!' Julianna yelled as music boomed through the Common Room. The celebration had begun.

'Get use to it.' Phillip yelled back similing, 'This is how our parties always are.'

'It's a wonder people haven't gone deaf.' Adele said.

'No one's complained yet.' Sirius commented, handing her a drink.

'Sirius, you know I don't drink, and I don't plan on ever drinking.'

'Come Adele. I didn't poison it. And it's not that you don't drink, you never take drinks when I offer them to you.'

'Hm, wonder why.'

'That rich! You won't take drinks from me but you'll take them from your Slytherin Boyfriend ...Ellis.'

'You're dating that seeker from the Quidditch team?' Julianna asked.

'His name is James, Sirius. And yeah, him and I have been dating for three years tomorrow.'

'That's cute.'

'It's disgusting. She doesn't trust me in giving her a drink but she'll trust a low life Slytherin! Pathetic.'

'Juls!' James said, walking over towards them, 'Great job today. Glad I put you on the team.'

'Aw, thanks James. That was very touching.' Julianna smiled.

James laughed, 'Say, Dominic is setting up some kar...karmonti!...'

'Karaoke?'

'Yeah! That's it! Remus said you are a really good singer so we thought you could start things off.'

Julianna just stared at him, 'I dunno. I don't think...'

'If you're a good singer Julia, then go.' Adele said.

'Yeah. Go Girl! Sing!' Phillip replied.

'Uh, give me a sec. I'll be right back.' She said, and took off upstairs.

'What the hell is it, Dom?' James asked.

Dominic hauld in a massive box with a microphone attached.

'It's a Karaoke machine. It's a muggle thing. People sing with it.' Lily said, resting her head on James's shoulder.

'Sound's like fun.'

'Yeah, we just need to get people to sing.' Dominic replied.

'Sirius will.' James said, laughing.

'He won't.' Tammy replied.

'Why not!'

'He's been drinking and you remember what happened last time he had been drinking and decided to sing freely for all of Gryffindor.'

'Besides, it would be nice to listen to someone who can ACTUALLY sing.' Mary-Elle said.

'Julia can sing.' Remus spoke.

'Can she?' James asked.

'Yeah. She sang for me one night. She's really good.'

'Well let's ask her...Juls.' James said, walking over towards her.

As Remus watched him talk to her, he saw a look of discourage on her face and before he knew it, he saw her take off upstairs.

'Oh god. I can't sing in front on all those people. I can't. I won't.' Julianna said, pacing back and forth in her room.

'You keep pacing like that, you're going to ware a hole in the floor.' Remus said, he head poked into the room. Julianna stuck her tounge out at him., 'Ouch. that hurt.' Remus said, gripping his heart.

'So, what are you doing up here?' she asked.

'I could ask you the same question.' he replied.

'James wants me to sing.'

'And..'

'And! Remus, I can't sing infront of other people. You know that.'

'You sang infront of me.'

'But you're different. I wanted to sing for you.' She said, sitting down on her bed, 'I, I also don't...'

Remus sat down next to her, 'You also don't what?'

She turned her head so that her eyes met his, 'I- also don't like singing alone. When I was young my mum and/or my godfather would always sing with me...'

'You never told me you have a godfather.'

'Had. And you never asked. But when they died. I stopped singing. The only singing I would do would be in my head or humming, which really isn't singing but whatever.'

Remus felt bad. It seemed like every time they talked, they talked about her parents and her past.

'Remus?' She asked. Her face seemed a bit closer than before. Remus gulped.

'Julia.' He made it a question

They were more concentraded on each other, too busy to say anything more and as their lips were close enough to touch...

'Hey! Why did you guys take off like that?' Sirius said, bursting into the room. They jumped apart.

'I, uh. I came up here to practise before I sing downstairs and Remus was uh...practising with me.' Julianna said.

'He's singing too?' Sirius asked.

'Yes. Remus and I are singing a duet together.'

Sirius laughed, 'Well, can't wait to see that, but hurry up. I said I'd bring you right down.' And with that said, he left the room.

'Well, I, I guess we should get going.' Julianna said, as she made her way towards the door.

'Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait!' Remus said, grabbing her arm, 'I can't sing with you.'

'Why not?'

'We don't have a song to sing and I can't sing. At all.'

Julianna smiled. 'I bet you can. Please Remus. The words will be displayed on a little screen thing so it doesn't matter if you don't know the words.'

He sighed, 'Okay fine. I'll do it.'

'Thank you.' She replied, kissing his cheek.

'There they are. Sirius said, speaking into the microphone, as Remus and Julianna walked down the starirs,' Mr Remus Lupin and Miss Julianna Zandwyk will be singing a little duet for us tonight. I have no bloody clue what they're singing, so let's get them up here.'

As the cheering began and they walked up on the platform which was set up, Remus got nervous.

Julianna grabbed his hand in hers, turned to him and smiled, 'You get to start.'

As the title of the song appeared on the screen, Remus reconized the song. His mum use to sing it to him all the time. That easied him a little.

Remus-Ohhh
Ain't no mountain high
Ain't no vally low
Ain't no river wide enough, baby

Julianna-If you need me, call me
No matter where you are
No matter how far
Just call my name
I'll be there in a hurry
You don't have to worry

'Wow. Remus wasn't kidding. She sure has good pipes.' Adele said.

'Remus isn't to bad himself.' Lily replied, 'Never knew he had it in him.'

Both-'Cause baby,
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you

Remus-Remember the day
I set you free
I told you
You could always count on me darlin'
From that day on I made a vow
I'll be there when you want me
Some way, soooooome how

'Remus, Do I sound okay?' Julianna asked.

Julianna-My love is alive
Way down in my heart
Although we are miles apart
If you ever need a helping hand
I'll be there on the double
Just as fast as I can

'Okay? You sound great, love.' Remus replied. Did I just call her love? 'I hope I'm not making us sound bad'

Remus-Don't you know that
Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from you

'Your voice sounds wonderful. Very sexy.' She replied, smirking.

Both-Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from you

Don't you know that
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough

to keep me from gettin' to you babe..

As everyone appauled, they both bowed.

'That was awesome guys.' Adele said.

'Thanks. But I had alot of help.' Julianna said, grasping Remus's hand again.

Remus blushed, but held her hand tightly in his own. God did he ever love her.

A/N: Yeah! I'm at the 67! Soo happy! Hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Kind of short but next chapter will be better. I swear. This one was just short and cute.Thank you to all my reviewers! Here are the Personal Thank Yous.

James- There you go. I have you dating Adele. Happy now. Aww. Thanks for your hope. Haha. And STOP calling me luv! ;-)

xxXGoddessXofXdeadXloveXxx- Here's the party for you. Hope you liked it. I know you guys might be mad that they didn't kiss. I'm sorry but it's still not the right moment yet. The right moment is coming soon though. I promise.

Cute-Angel-Princess- I love my gay guy Phillip. He's sooo awesome. I thought it would be a cool input to this story. It needed funniness. Just like The Amazing Race has Linn and Alex. LOL.

Silly- Dominic and Lee are alot alike but thats because Dominic is Lee's dad. Haha. Came up with that all on my own. This is the part I put in that I am very proud of writing; "He didn't speak. It was amazing how fast Bellatrix could go from being bitchy and and well, bitchy, to a passionate creature who showed her love for him in more ways than imaginable. They were in love. A mad, desperate passion, to be sure, but love nonetheless. It was not something obvious, but it was evident in shared glances and in the quiet interludes they shared when they thought no one else was looking." I loved writing it. It gives an awesome feel to this chapter, how they are in love but just don't really admit it to others and sometimes each other.

Jesska-14- Right right...your thumb! I'm glad it made your finger better. I love my gay guy. He's soo awesome. I love gay people. I hope to get to 100 soon but with this many reveiwers a chapter, it won't happen for awhile :(

Keep on reviewing!
