Ahh, finally the epilogue! Sorry I haven't updated in the last couple of days—it's all Christmas' fault! Hah. Anyway, this takes place at the end of seventh year, more specifically on graduation day. Review responses are at the end of the chappie.
I love the way you press my buttons
So much sometimes I could strangle you
All the seventh years, whether they were from Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, or Slytherin, looked the same today. They all wore uniform dress robes, passed out by the school. These robes were all dark purple silk, exactly matching the wizard hats they all wore. They were also horsing around as they waited for Professor McGonagall to tell them to line up for the ceremony.
Alize was chasing Sirius around, brandishing her wand. He had stolen her hat, and was trying to get away. Alize was still the same height he was, but he was faster than she was (blame Quidditch reflexes). An evil smirk crossed her face as an idea came to mind, and she leaned over and kissed him. Sirius quickly stopped resisting, and Alize snatched the hat away as soon as possible. She replaced in on her head and gave him a triumphant smirk. Sirius pouted. "But, it looks so stupid, darling! I was doing you a favor!"
Alize shook her head, her smirk becoming a grin. "Honestly, Sirius, darling, you are insufferable," she teased, before kissing him. When they broke apart, Sirius grinned cheekily and slung an arm around her shoulder. "Insufferable, eh? I can live with that." Alize giggled.
Alize and Sirius had been a couple for a wonderful six months. A six months that included ups as astounding as Sirius actually managing to execute a perfect Valentine's Day in February, and lows as hysterical as each forgetting the other's birthday (which, coincidentally, fell within one week of each other) in April.
Professor McGonagall happened to enter the room at that moment, beckoning everyone to assemble on the magical platform outside. Sirius extended his arm, in the old-fashioned gesture of gentlemen. "Shall we go, my princess?" he said in an exaggerated deep voice. Alize took his arm and simpered in an uncharacteristically high voice, "But of course, my prince."
And they rode off into the sunset and lived happily ever after.
Well, actually it was midday. So there was no sunset.
Also, they only lived happily for a few months before Sirius decided to push her away to try and save her, a supremely stupid move on his part because he knew as well as anyone that she could handle herself.
Alize was confused and heart broken, convinced Sirius was cheating on her, and Sirius was also heartbroken, but feeling that he did the right thing. He managed to silence the Remus-voice on that particular topic.
So, they rode off into the midday light and lived happily for a few months, before splitting up to go to Azkaban/disappear and never be heard from again.
Really doesn't have the same ring to it, though, does it?
Probably because there was no white horse.

I'd have to say that that ending was the most random thing I've written on this story. Thank you all for reading it! Review responses (to those reviews received as of 12/25/05) are below.
Rabid Tree: Thanks! Yeah, I know, professions of love aren't really Siri's style. I blame it on the Remus-voice.
Out Of Luck: Thank you! They're all song quotes, you know. This is basically one really drawn-out songfic.
Irite4uall: Thanks! DAHLING! Whee. Yes. Sirius rocks. Also, he did not die. I know because he's tied up on this chair next to me!
Sirius: (mmph!)
Julieslene: Bleh, you spelled it wrong. It's Juleslene, smartness. Can you even pronounce that? Thanks, and also thanks for reviewing Masks. I did like the name on Masks, and as far as Alize resembling you...(innocent whistle) (for those who don't know, Julieslene is my IRL best friend. Fwee!)
