Sirius – whose mind had been elsewhere, came crashing back to reality and stared at her. He didn't know what to say.

"W-what?" He stuttered

"I want you to give me away." She whispered again

"I don't know what to say."

"Say you'll do it."

"Of course I will." Sirius said, he was smiling.

"Someone wants you." Hannah said, looking over at the edge of the pitch

"I best go then." Sirius laughed, seeing Lily. "Coming?"

Hannah nodded.

They walked over to where Lily was standing.

"What you two grinning about?" She asked

"Nothing!" They answered

Lily rolled her eyes.

"I know what it was about!" She stated, "You might as well just tell me!"

They shook their heads.

"Oh by the way." Lily added "Remus said he'll meet you in the Common Room."

"Okay!" Hannah said and walked into the castle.

"So how was Quidditch?" Lily asked

"It was alright." Sirius answered, "I wasn't aiming at you before, you know."

"You best not have been!" Lily teased

Sirius stuck his tongue out at her. He put his arms around her waist.

"Listen, do you fancy dinner at Hogsmeade tonight?" He asked

Lily looked at him

"Sure." She smiled

"Meet you at seven?"

"Okay." Lily replied "Seven it is!"

He gazed longingly into her eyes and he kissed her softly on the lips.

"I love you." he whispered

"I love you too."

"I'm gonna go and have something to eat." He said and his stomach rumbled

Lily laughed and pushed him in the direction of the Great Hall but Sirius grabbed her hand and pulled her with him.

"Come and keep me company." Sirius commanded tenderly. Lily smiled and followed.

"Why do I need to keep you company anyway?" Lily asked, smiling "You've got James to talk to."

"But you're much better company." He grinned

He kissed her hand and they went and sat down.

"I need to eat anyway." Lily said, laughing slightly

"Why?" Sirius asked, "You ate before."

"Yeah, like one half of a sandwich."

Sirius snorted.

"Well that's what you get for having a quick lunch with my sister."

"Remind me never to have a quick lunch with her again." She added

"Shame we only have a few days left to practice though." Sirius sighed, picking up something to eat.

"Why?" Lily asked

"We've got a match on Thursday!"

"Who against?"

"Slytherin!" Sirius pulled a face "And I really want to get one over on Malfoy!"

"Doesn't everyone on the Gryffindor team?" Lily asked

"Me especially, he's the reason Hannah and Drake couldn't play last year."

"What happened?" Lily asked, confused

"Oh come on Lil." Sirius muttered, "You didn't hear?"

Lily shook her head

"Not that I can remember."

Sirius sighed

"Malfoy was going on about Drake's Mum and Dad because they'd just split up and he had heard about the split." Sirius explained

"Jeez!" Lily whistled

"You're telling me," Sirius paused. "Mind Hannah has got a big gob and doesn't know when to keep it shut."

Lily giggled and pulled Sirius into a kiss.

"What was that for?" Sirius asked, when Lily ended the kiss

"For being you."

Sirius put him arm around her and hugged her.

"You're the best girl a guy could ask for." He breathed.
