(A/.n): Ya know I love reading reviews, just thought I'd put that out there (hint hint). Now I warn you, short chapter coming up, so I've followed it with a reasonably long (in my opinion) one.

What Goes Around, Comes Around

'What was that all about?' Sirius asked, the other two shrugged. The boys retired to their dormitory for the night, well morning if you want to get technical.

As the first rays of sunlight peeped through his hangings, Sirius lay in bed awake and reflecting. –I should feel great; I mean I do feel great. Don't I? I mean Estrella, she's amazing. She's hot, got a great body, stunning eyes; she's smart and kind, a good kisser. She's the whole package. So why does this feel wrong. There's a hole in there somewhere and for some reason it grows bigger every time I'm with her-

'Sirius, Sirius are you up?' called James tiredly.

'Yeah I'm up, are you?' Sirius called back

'Only just, but mate if you're thinking then it may work better if you didn't say random things out loud'

'Shut up I didn't say anything out loud'

'Uhhh yeah you did' James said in a patronising tone

'Right whatever'

'No seriously mate; I'm not kidding you. God knows what you were going on about but what I heard was "great, great body, package and hole" In fact now that I think about it. Do I WANT to know?' James joked

'Get your mind out of the gutter, you twat. I was thinking about Estrella' Sirius said

'What? Salgado?'

'Yeah'

'What about her' James asked unsurely

'Dunno' something about being with her seems wrong, you know?'

'Well you know you have been going for a week. It is officially the time to dump her' (a/n: jerk, yes I know)

'I dunno' mate. Seems a bit harsh don't' you think' Sirius commented.

'Who are you and what have you done to my best friend? … You're Sirius Black this is what you do. Anyway, she's smart, she'll probably be expecting this'

'You're right, yeah … what the hell's gotten into me? Yeah I think I will dump her. Thanks Prongs.'

'Glad to be of service, aaaaaanyway you might want to get up now. In case you hadn't noticed, it isn't that long 'til breakfast' Sirius groaned. He hadn't had any sleep.

At breakfast Estrella Salgado sat with her sixth year friends in an extremely bad mood. She knew what was coming. She and Sirius Black had been going out for exactly a week and like all the other girls she had half-heartedly hoped that he would see more in her than any of his other girls, but that wasn't going to happen, and she knew it.

'Rae, you have to eat something' a friend advised

'No I don't feel like it' Estrella replied stubbornly

'Listen, you knew this was going to happen. Everyone does'

'Yes, well that didn't stop you from not eating when it happened to YOU in third year, did it?' she barked. Her friend shut up and looked away.

Estrella immediately regretted her words 'Listen I'm really sorry for snapping at you but I've had a great week and I don't want it to end' she felt a tap on her shoulder. She took a deep breath and met her fate with a large, sparkling, fake smile. 'Hey Siri' Sirius wore an expression of guilt. 'Hey Estrella' he replied though not quite meeting her eyes. 'What's up sweetie?' Estrella asked, though she knew exactly what was up.

Sirius continued to take great interest in the floor 'uuuumm, Rae, I mean Estrella we need to take a walk, grab some toast' and here James muttered 'and some tissues' Sirius glared at him but Estrella seemed not to notice, he turned back to her 'Come on, lets go'. She nodded took another deep breath and followed her boyfriend, soon to be ex-boyfriend out of the hall.

A few seats away two girls had watched the entire scene. One, very happy and the other pretended (though failed dismally) not to care. 'Hah! I knew it. What day is it today? … Hmmm, Wednesday, yep it's been a week. That's the break up walk, that is.' Kayla Simmons announced to her best friend.

'Right and so…' Jane said indifferently. Kayla shot her a "look".

'Don't give me that Miss I'm in love with Sirius Black, if you're not squealing and throwing a party inside, bob's mi uncle'. The sides of Jane's mouth twitched as she played around with her pancakes. Kayla rolled her eyes 'Go on let it all out, squeal, giggle etcetera etcetera etcetera' Kayla said sarcastically (a/n: I'm thinking the King & I with that sentence for some reason).

Jane dropped her fork, hugged Kayla and squealed 'yes, yes, YES' and let out a fit of giggles. 'You'd better get Black to ask you out soon, I'm losing my best friend in all of this. Squealing? Giggling? So not you' Kayla said, Jane let out a huff of mock indignation. 'Well just for that…' and she let out a fake squeal and hugged Kayla once more. With that, they got up and left early for their lessons.

Meanwhile down by the lake, squeals and giggles were most definitely not crossing Estrella Salgado's mind. You want to think more along the lines of wails and tears. Although, they were walking in silence at that particular moment. Finally Sirius stopped abruptly and turned Estrella to face him.

'Okay, well Estrella if it makes you feel any better, I don't feel all that great doing this' she nodded solemnly (a/n: for goodness' sake woman, its not the end of the world, wait I'm contradicting myself aren't I).

'Listen, I've had a great week and everything. You're a great girl, you really are. I mean you're perfect' tears started to roll down her cheeks. 'So why are you breaking up with me' she whispered tearfully. 'It's got nothing to do with you. But you see, I was going out with you but I like someone else and that's not fair to me and it's definitely not fair to you. You deserve a guy who thinks the world of you and is willing to give you way more than I could.' Estrella nodded again and looked away so Sirius could not se how much this was affecting her.

'So you must understand, why we have to break this off?' he received a sob in reply and took it as a yes. 'Well we have to get to lessons, come on, let me walk you up to the castle' and they made their way back up in reasonable silence often broken by a sob or two from the crying girl.

As they were about to part ways in the Entrance Hall, Estrella wiped away her tears as best she could and asked in a quiet voice. 'Siri, Sirius' he turned 'One, one last thing? Who's the … the girl' Sirius sighed 'Jane Swales'.

Estrella's sadness was immediately replaced with rising anger. 'You picked Jane Swales over me?' his face hardened and his eyes changed from their smoky grey to stone cold pits. 'Yeah, and so what if I did?' she snorted 'and they say you have good taste'. He shook his head disgustedly.

'You're right I must have bad taste, I went out with you, didn't I?' and with that he turned and made his way to Ancient Runes.

Lily sat in her Ancient Runes class not taking a single word of what being said. She sat staring out of the window, quill in her hand.

'So, purity would be…Miss Evans? Enlighten us' Professor Cummings enquired. This seemed to snap her out of her reverie. She shook her head 'Huh! What?' several people snickered. 'I asked you what the word for purity is?' – shit, purity, purity think, think- 'uuuumm… I don't know' she finished lamely. Professor Cummings sent her a stern look 'well I suggest you look at me because I guarantee you Ancient Runes can not be learnt by studying clouds, are we clear?'

'Yes sir'. He turned and continued with the lesson.

Lily tuned him right back out but this time kept her eyes on the board. So far her week had been pretty good. Well last week's Lily would've thought so anyway. This week's Lily now knew exactly what Potter thought of her. The same Potter who had persistently asked her out since first year. The snobby, conceited arrogant prick was now her superior. And she didn't like it one bit.

In truth, James' speech had showed her that she was just as bad as she made him out to be. In fact little by little as the week progressed his words had affected her so much that Lily had started to believe she was inferior to everyone. That she didn't deserve to be Head Girl, or get good grades, that the Slytherins had a right to call her what they did, that she didn't deserve her friends and sometimes at the worst that she didn't deserve to be a witch.

Why have HIS words affected me so much? It's because he's never said something insulting to you before, he's only ever worshipped the ground you walk on. Yeah, so? Well you're not used to Potter hating you in fact, you like the fact there was always someone who thought you were heaven on earth. No, I didn't, that's not true. You sure? Well… it isn't, right? Right, I mean a Potter free week must be like heaven to you. Yeah well no but it's not because he doesn't like me anymore it's because of what he said.

So we're back to the original question. Which was? Why did his little speech affect you so much? Oh yeah! You're right maybe you don't deserve those grades, you're quite slow. I am aren't I? Seems like it. No, shut up, shut up, that's not true, it isn't. Yeah well what goes around comes around doesn't it. Yeah but that saying doesn't work for me and Potter. Doesn't it? Think about it. I don't have to. Yes you do For all the insults you've thrown at him and the many times you've hurt him, he's come right back at you and used it against you to make you feel insulted and hurt like never before- just then the bell rang signalling the end of class. This left Lily 30 minutes 'til the next class.

She got up from her seat and muttered 'what goes around, comes around' on her way out she met James' hazel gaze. They held it for a few long seconds but soon Lily felt her tears well up in her eyes and dashed out before they had time to come out.

Meanwhile, Sirius was rather enjoying the luxuries of being single. Obviously the news of his status had spread through the girls like wildfire. So naturally he had another fawning girl following him the minute he turned into a new corridor. As he walked down the Great Hall corridor to go have lunch (by now at least 25 girls in tow plus the 2 hanging off his arms) someone shoved past.

'OI, watch where you're alright…' but he trailed at the sight of who it was. Jane stood there, her silver mirror eyes only giving him a perfect reflection of himself but no clue as to what she was feeling. He brusquely pulled away his arms from the two who were clinging on.

'Hey Swales, did you hear I broke up with Salgado?'

'Black, the Quibbler probably cares more than I do' he was hurt, he tried in vain to search her eyes but they, like only a moment before, were too glassy to see anything but her pupils. She then tore away from his gaze and sped down the staircase in front of her (which Sirius could've sworn hadn't been there a minute ago) He shooed away his groupies and ran down the stairs after her.

'Hey, Hey Swales' she continued walking. 'Jane?' she stopped and turned around. 'What do you want, Black?'

'Maybe I didn't tell you, I broke up with Salgado because I like you' she looked surprised for a second but it didn't last any longer. 'And…?' she replied coldly, now it was Sirius' turn to be shocked. 'Well, well do you want to go out with me?' Jane paused before answering. 'No, quite frankly'

'What do you mean?' Sirius cried

Jane looked sympathetic 'oh dear, you've never faced rejection have you?' he opened his mouth but had nothing to say on the matter, because in all honesty he never had faced rejection. She continued 'Listen, Black it's not enough to like me. If you want me to be your girlfriend you're going to have to understand me first and have that certain level of sensitivity I require in a guy. Also I can't go out with you until you can look me in the eye and promise you won't tire of me within a week, can you do that?' Sirius looked at her defiantly but kinda ruined his front by nervously shifting from one foot to the other. 'I, I won' tire of you' Jane shook her head.

'Look me in the eye Sirius' at this he looked up and found himself unable to carry out the simple task she'd assigned him. 'I thought as much' she said. Jane waited for an answer and when it seemed apparent she wasn't going to get one she turned on her heels and started to walk away.

'Jane?' she turned around again. 'Listen you said I need to understand you?'

'Yes'

'So how about we just be friends?' Sirius offered. Jane paused and remembered what had happened with the whole Lily and James scene but she shook her head and smiled. 'Friends sounds good'. He grinned at her, ran and put his arm round her shoulder. The two 'friends' then turned right back round realising that they hadn't had lunch, but both thought the same thing –friends sounds good, for now-

(A/n): OK that's not too bad, I guess and also I think next chapter I'll work on the whole Remus/Kayla front.
