Chapter 2: A Little Flashback Converstion
"I can hardly believe it. In fact, I honestly can't believe it. No humanly way has Sirius Black actually had a girlfriend for three months."
"I know, Prongsie, it's hard to believe isn't it. I think I've grown," Sirius said as he began to pluck up blades of grass. The two were lying by the great lake, watching as the giant squid did was appeared to be some kind of water aerobics, but with the giant squid one could never be entirely certain.
"Maybe it's a sign of the apocalypse," James suggested, a grin threatening to break free and take hold of his lips. Sirius whacked him on the arm a little less than playfully.
"Ouch, what was that for?"
"For being an ass."
"I thought that's why I was your best friend."
"And that was almost funny," Sirius said, brooding over whether it was worth rolling his eyes or not. Eventually he decided not to. Generally whenever he did, James mocked him for it until he did something else stupid or in the immortal words of James Potter "damn girly." And James wondered why Lily Evans still refused at the end of sixth year to go out with him.
"So, Padfoot, now that you're madly in love are you going to disown your Marauder heritage, forsake your troublesome friends and start along a path of the straight and narrow?" James asked in a way that was less direct than simply asking if Sirius was going to still be his best friend. James had a few problems expressing his deeper emotions, but so did Sirius so the roundabout questions go not quite serious answers and they both knew they were good.
"I was thinking about it for a while," Sirius said casually. "But then I realized that would make me boring, and I just don't think I want to end up like my brother."
"He's on a straight and narrow path?"
"Well, his is slightly less crooked then mind."
"No, Paddy, his is only crooked in a different way," James said, turning his head over to glance as his friend.
"Yeah, I suppose," Sirius admitted.
"Hey guys," Remus said, sitting down next to Sirius.
"Jeez man," Sirius exclaimed. "You scare the shit out of me! Make noise when you walk." James clutched at his chest.
"Yeah!" he agreed fervently. "I don't need to die of a heart attack at seventeen."
"I actually scared you?" Remus asked with a wry smile.
"Yes!" the other two shouted together. Remus snickered as he lay back.
"Sorry then ladies." They glared at him. "So what is the topic of today?"
"Sirius's love life," James chimed up.
"And James's lack of one," Sirius quipped. This time it was James who did the hitting.
"Ouch. That hurt!"
"That was the idea."
"Now, now children," Remus said lazily. "Let's not fight."
"Says the boy with superhuman strength," Sirius muttered, rubbing his stinging arm.
"Hey, you hit me, I hit you, we're even," James reasoned.
"I liked being uneven better."
"So what are you boys doing tonight?" Remus cut in quickly.
"I have a date," Sirius said proudly.
"What are you gonna do?" Remus inquired. Sirius shrugged.
"She likes it when I'm spontaneous, so I haven't decided yet."
"Meaning you have no idea what to do in a school," Remus said dryly.
"How right you are," Sirius cheerfully agreed.
Back in Present Time
"So Kronos," Gemini said, resting against his back as the wind whipped by them, making the whistling noise she had grown to love in her time as a Quidditch player. "What do you think Dawn will have made to eat tonight? Something good or something gross as her final revenge against me still going to England. You know, I don't see why she had to be so uptight about it. I'm playing one game, going to one party, and then coming home. She seems to think I'll get into trouble. And bye trouble she means meet up with dad. Not that I would recognize him if I did. You know we don't have one picture of him? And he wouldn't know who I was because he hasn't seem me since I was born, so I don't see what she's worried about." Kronos made a soft noise through his nose. Gemini giggled.
"All right, I get it. I'm talking too much. Fine. Its just whenever I'm up here flying with you I get this urge to talk about these things. I don't like to care on the ground." She sighed. "Just get us home so I can retreat to my room after a quick dinner and not emerge again until noon."
Wow. I didn't think I'd ever update this story.
