Chapter Six

Sam buried her head in her hands. "Three ungodly hours and I'm still stuck in a room with my enemy," she muttered.

"Hey, this room isn't that big. I can hear what you're saying," Sirius replied darkly. "And I wasn't your enemy before."

"Well you are now!" Sam snapped, looking up from her place. Sirius glared at her. "Oh, so you're fighting back now?"

"Hell yeah, especially since I feel like I made a mistake and I wanna apologize but my so-called friend won't let me," Sirius said angrily, running a hand through his hair. Sam averted her gaze quickly away from Sirius.

"I have no idea what you're talking about."

"That's because you refuse to forgive me," Sirius said coldly. "Look, I'm sorry. I really never intended to hurt you. I'm not the type."

"Uh-huh, and playing flavor of the week isn't hurting anyone?" Sam retorted. "That's different."

"Oh, well, maybe I don't wanna play flavor of the week anymore."

"Oh, really?" Sam said sarcastically. "What stopped you?"

"You did." Sirius pierced her eyes with his. "Congratulations, Miss Livingston."

He came nearer and placed a soft kiss on her lips, which magically opened the door. Funny thing was… Neither of them wanted to stop right now.


Lily rested her head on James's shoulder as they lay awake in the common room. Her emerald green eyes were getting slightly droopy. "James…" she said softly. "Why are they taking forever?"

James absentmindedly played with Lily's auburn hair. "I dunno… I don't wanna study anymore." He grinned sheepishly, making Lily smile. "I'm serious! You didn't have to study FIVE years of Charms. It gives you a headache."

"Whoever told you that you had to study all five years? You could've just remembered the recent ones." Lily laughed. "God, you're weird."

She pinched James, who recoiled in annoyance. "Hey, that hurts, Miss Evans!" he joked. Lily grinned and started tickling him. "Oh god!"

He started laughing and tickling her back.


Sam pulled away, gasping for breath. "What in the blazes of Azkaban was that?" she whispered. Sirius glanced down at her.

"A kiss…"

"A kiss that wasn't meant to happen…" Sam answered, standing up and straightening her shirt. "God, why do you always catch me off-guard?"

Sirius stood up, towering over her. "Gee, I dunno, because you always catch me off-guard too," he said softly, crossing his arms. Sam glanced down at the floor.

"Look, the door's open. Let's go." She strode over to the door and walked away with her heart beating like she ran a million miles.


"Sam, you're back! Did you forgive him?" Lily asked once Sam entered the common room. Sam numbly shook her head, walking slowly upstairs to their dormitory. Lily shrugged, concern showing in her eyes.

"Follow her, Lily." James smiled sadly. Lily smiled back before going up to their dormitory, seeing Sam sit numbly on her bed.

"You okay, Sam?" Lily asked softly.

"There's something utterly wrong with me."

"Why do you say that?"

"Okay, uh… Let's say you're addicted to chocolate. Yeah, chocolate. And then…" Sam trailed off. "You suddenly just STOP eating it for thigh purposes."

"I know what you mean," Mattie called from the bathroom. "I hate it when Remus gives chocolate and it all goes to the thighs."

"Anyway… Somehow Sir—chocolate, I mean chocolate, seems to just be calling your name and suddenly you just saw someone shove it right up your face. And you don't stop that person. What does that mean?" Sam asked, her hands nervously gripping each other.

"Well… Can I interpret this?" Lily said softly. Sam paused before nodding. "You and Sirius were very good friends. And suddenly he did something that made you drift away. Then afterwards, everywhere he seems to want to be forgiven but you refuse and finally he just did something that you wanted to stop it but you couldn't."

"Are you sure you're not Albus Dumbledore in another life?" Sam asked suspiciously. Lily laughed and hugged her old friend.

"I get that a lot, dear," she said kindly. "But no matter what, you're gonna have to face him…"

Sam sighed. "Yeah, I just hope I'll be ready for it."


Sirius ran a hand through his hair. "Oh god, I just made a crappy mistake!" he wailed as he entered the common room, seeing James on the couch.

"Oh, Siri-boy, what did you do now?" James asked, seeing Sirius's sad face. Sirius flopped on the couch sadly, running a hand through his hair.

"She won't forgive me!" Sirius persisted. "Even when I turned into my naturally sensitive self, she didn't forgive me!"

"You must've done something wrong, then, 'cause Sam always forgives." James raised his eyebrows. "What did you do, Sirius?"

"I…" Sirius bit his lip. "I… I kissed her!"

James's jaw dropped. "You WHAT!"

"I kissed her. I. Kissed. Sam. Livingston." Sirius buried his head in his hands. "I'm an idiot, I know that."

"Not an idiot. An idiotic, moronic, STUPID hell of an ass!" James roared. "What the hell were you thinking? She's like our sister, Siri!"

"Yeah, but have you ever noticed that she's actually a very attractive girl?" Sirius asked furiously. "Come on, James, she's pretty and my body agrees with me!"

"But Sirius—"

"James, I know she's like our sister. But she isn't exactly. So don't ask me why I'm feeling this. Sometimes it's just like that." Sirius strode away from James and up the stairs. James sat down on the couch, overwhelmed.

"Somehow, you just spoke how I felt." He rested his head on the couch and closed his eyes. "How I felt about Lily Evans."
