A/N: Thank you to all who have reviewed. I'm sorry that I couldn't update sooner. I've been busy and lazy. I'm gonna try to make this chapter longer but I'm not promising anything.

Chapter Four: Hogsmeade

The rest of the week flew by without anything too interesting happening and before the students new it the time for the visit to Hogsmeade arrived. Once they had arrived the students all went their separate ways with a few of them breaking off into smaller groups and couples. One of these couples happened to be Sirius Black and Jasmine Potter. They walked through Hogsmeade idly chatting while they were being spied upon by a very overprotective brother.

"So, how much you wanna bet that James is following us around making sure that I don't do anything inappropriate with you?" Sirius asked the girl walking next to him through the busy streets.

"A million galleons. When is he ever going to realize that I don't need him to protect me anymore? I can take care of myself," Jasmine replied.

"So, you wanna mess with him?" Sirius casually asks as he puts his arm around Jasmine's shoulders.

"What'd you have in mind?"

'I wonder what they're talking about. So far Sirius has been a perfect gentleman. I don't like it. He's never been this nice for this long before,' James thought as he followed behind the couple through the streets of Hogsmeade.

Then as he continued to follow, he saw Sirius place his arm around Jasmine.

'How dare he touch my little sister? I'm gonna hex him into next Thursday,' he thought as he moved up behind them and spoke, "Hey guys! How's it going?"

Sirius looked at James with a mischievous glint in his eyes that went unnoticed by the other boy. Jasmine looked at her twin brother a simply said, "Well, it was going well until you barged in on our conversation. Why don't you go hunt down Lily, like you usually do when we get to go to Hogsmeade?"

"What? Can't a guy hang out with his sister?" replied James.

"Not when she's on a date," Jasmine all but growled at James as she started walking away as quickly as she could with Sirius hot on her trail. James just stood there and watched as his sister and best friend ran away from him. Out of the corner of his eye he noticed a few strands of red hair turn a corner, but he was too busy 'protecting' his sister to really care.

During his few minutes of thinking he noticed that he hadn't seen Remus today. He wondered what had happened to his other friend. James decided that it was time to turn his attentions to finding Remus and that he would give Jazz and Sirius some private time. Although, that didn't mean that he was done following them. He was just taking a small break.

"Hey, Jazz! Slow down," Sirius yelled at the girl that was currently running from him. Jazz slowed down and stopped noticing that she was in a small forest. When Sirius finally caught up to her he asked, "You alright?"

"What do you think Sirius? My brother keeps interrupting everything that I try to do in my life. All I want is to be able to live my own life without him always interrupting."

"So, what do you want to do now?"

"I don't know. It's kind of nice here. It's quiet and peaceful. Not like the streets."

"Yeah, I know what you mean. So let's just sit down and chat a little." Sirius said as he sat down on a tree stump and motioned for Jasmine to sit on the stump next to him. Jasmine sat down and they began to chat about everything and nothing.

James' search was actually pretty short due to the fact that as soon as he walked into Honeydukes he saw Remus and a short brunette girl talking in one of the corners as they looked at the different sweets that were for sale. All of a sudden the girl tripped and was luckily caught by Remus before she took out the entire candy display that she was falling toward. James then recognized the girl as the Ravenclaw Laura. He thought that it would be best if he left them alone, since he had accomplished his goal.

Now it was time to go back to his original goal, which was to make sure that Sirius didn't do anything with Jasmine. James looked all over Hogsmeade looking for the pair until he decided that he should throw in the towel and call it a day. He walked back to the school and went into the Gryffindor common room and up to the boys' dorm room. What he saw when he walked in the room surprised the hell out of him. So much so that he almost fainted. There on Sirius' bed was Sirius and Jasmine…..
