It's just you're Subconscious
Chapter Five: Fights and Midnight Snacks
Sienna lay curled up in her bed, she looked like a Burrito, and she was wrapped up in a cocoon that was a tan comforter, and her redish hair was sticking out at the top, it was all you saw, was blanket and hair. She sighed contently in her sleep, unaware of Ana opening the curtain to the bed. She looked down and smirked at her friend, she was all wrapped up in sheet and blanket, and she was right in the middle. The pillows were above her head so she just lay on the mattress.
Ana leaned down and pulled some of the comforter away, "Go away." Sienna mumbled in her sleep, "Five more minutes mum." She said again before snuggling in further. Ana pulled on it more, she looked for an opening and pulled, she smirked proudly when she got it right.
The minute Ana had pulled on it, she unrolled Sienna and Sienna fell onto the floor on her back, the blankets now on her bed. "Mmm, Ana you cow." She muttered yawning.
"Moo," was Ana's only reply, "It's time to get up anyway, lazy ass." She said laughing as Sienna got herself up yawning again.
"That was a cruel way to wake someone up." Sienna said walking to the bathroom, only to hear Ana snigger. Sienna took a quick shower she walked out, dressed in her Uniform for school. "Seen my books?" She asked Lily who was painting her nails.
Lily shrugged, "Nope." She replied, she looked beat, she had dark rings around her eyes, "I hate patrolling halls. It's so boring, there's no action." She muttered; yawning deeply, as she did the paint brush to the nail polish moved and went across her finger, there was now a bright red streak across it. "Stupid." She muttered.
Sienna laughed, "Well don't say that around Sirius and his friends," Sienna began, "They'll make sure it isn't boring, which will make you wish it was boring." She laughed, diving under her bed; her books were all the way in the back, against the wall. She pulled out her wand, out of her robes and pointed them at the books, "Accio books!" She said, she screamed and dived to the side as they flew out, hitting Ana in the legs.
"Ow, watch, where you Accio you're books!" She said rubbing her legs glaring, "And Sienna has a point," She said turning her attention to Lily, "Not to forget Peeves as well, he'd make it less boring." Ana commented dryly.
Lily rolled her eyes finishing her nails, "Yeah it wouldn't be boring, it'd be hell. He's so annoying and he's got an obsession with water balloons and paint." She replied groaning.
Ana was still looking for a shirt, "Sienna have you seen the shirt my Grandmother gave me? The green one, I want it for later." Ana stated looking over at Sienna who looked away quickly. The Green Shirt said, "Irish Honey" as Ana was mostly Irish, it was a special shirt to Ana, she had leant it to Sienna for a while.
"Sienna, that is a really special shirt, she gave it to me before she died." Ana said looking sternly, Sienna pointed behind a small nightstand, looking quite guilty, Ana reached behind and saw the shirt and picked it up, "Sienna! What did you do to it?" She said looking at Sienna.
"Well…" She said turning to look at Ana and the torn shirt, "I kind of sort of fell and um…it ripped." She replied.
Ana was near tears, "I gave you something and hoped you have taken care of it! If you weren't such a klutz, this wouldn't have happened!" She yelled stomping by.
Sienna just sat on the bed quietly, wringing her hands as Ana stomped back out of the bathroom, "I'm sorry Ana." Sienna stated.
"It's always sorry with you, you don't take care of things, or other peoples things, you have no responsibility when it comes to taking care of things." She said walking by, grabbing her stuff and walking down to the common room.
"Great, I've ruined a friendship." Sienna said lying down on the bed, sighing, it was true. When it came to taking care of things Sienna was worst. A lot of her friends didn't want to lend her things because of it.
Lily sighed, "Nah, she'll get over it, but she has a point, you don't take care of things." Lily said softly, "Come on, lets go eat Breakfast." Lily suggested.
Sienna sat up and shrugged, "Sure." She replied grabbing her things and walking down to the common room, where Ana was talking to Remus, she looked up and saw Sienna and stomped out of the portrait hole.
Remus looked at her, "I heard." He said softly.
Sienna rolled her eyes, "Whatever." She said, now pissed off, Ana wouldn't just accept the apology, which she meant. It wasn't like she purposely ripped it, now she had to go tell people about it.
"Hey it's not my fault." He replied, holding his hands up, frowning, Sienna stared at him in annoyance.
She rolled her eyes again, "You brought it up." She snapped.
"Yeah," he said getting angry, "To defend you, it's not my fault you ripped it." He said as Sirius and James came down along with Peter.
Sienna huffed, "Yes, but you had to bring it up! It's not like I wanted to go out and ripped the damn thing! It was an accident!" She yelled.
Remus now stood up, "I know! And if you had let me finish, I would have said I was on you're side! But since you're yelling maybe I'm not." He replied, equally angry.
"Fine!" She yelled.
"Fine!" He echoed, as Lily walked out, Sienna stomping behind her, she knew she was being a bitch at the moment but in all honesty she didn't care. She was pissed, and when Ana and Sienna got into a fight everyone knew, they would sneer at each other, and yell, scream, and berate. Yet, one minute they're fighting the next it's all good, but when they are fighting, it's like walking on egg shells with them.
As Sienna walked down the hall Kat caught up with them, "Hi!" She said happily, only getting a shrug in reply. "Something wrong?" She asked at Sienna's scowl.
"No, everything's just peachy!" She said, walking faster and storming into the Great Hall, she sat down and threw some food on her plate.
She hadn't noticed she had sat down next to Ana, "Hey, I didn't say you could sit next to me." Ana said.
Sienna sneered, "The table doesn't have Ana written across it, does it? I can sit where I want." She muttered.
Lily, James, Sirius, Peter and Remus learned to just ignore it, that it was no good in trying to get them to make up, it just had to take it's course so of course they all ignored Ana and Sienna.
"So? I don't want to sit next to someone who ripped my shirt." Ana said, feeling childish at the moment.
Sienna took some eggs and threw it at Ana, "I didn't do it on purpose! It's not like I thought, 'Mmm Ana really likes this shirt, I should rip it just to piss her off'!" Sienna said.
"You did it with my jeans last year!" Ana protested, dumping syrup on Sienna who growled at her.
"You said," Sienna began, taking pancake and smashing it into Ana's head, "That my apology was accepted and it was forgotten!" She picked up bacon and threw it at Ana but missed and hit James.
"Hey, I didn't rip any shirt!" He protested, he grabbed some muffins and threw it at Sienna but she ducked at and hit Ana.
"Hey! She didn't do anything to you." Sienna said glaring as Ana chimed in, "Yeah! So what's it to you?" Ana picked up the syrup bottle and squirted it at James getting his glasses and hair messed up.
Ana and Sienna high-fived, the ripped shirt forgotten, Sirius stood up, "FOOD FIGHT!" The minute he said it everyone stood up and screamed along with him bacon, eggs, bread, and pancakes were flying around, syrup was raining down on them.
Ana and Sienna were under the table aiming at Sirius, Sienna turned to Ana, "Sorry about the shirt…" She muttered.
Ana sighed, "I suppose I should forgive you…" Ana said sighing dramatically, Sienna pouted, "Be careful next time, I'm sure a simple charm can fix the shirt." She said smiling they both shook hands and then squirted maple syrup at Sirius along with throwing a handful of Grape Jelly at his head.
Just as the girls laughed there was a shrill scream, "What is the meaning of this?" It was Professor McGonagall, Ana and Sienna knew they were in big trouble, "Who started it!" She asked as Sienna and Ana appeared out from under the table.
Everyone pointed to the Marauder's and Ana and Sienna. She glared at them, they all hung their heads.
"I would have expected it from them, but you Ms. Travers and Ms. Costello I am ashamed!" She said glaring, "A month detention with Filch!" She said, "Everyone but these six out," She yelled turning to Ana, Sienna, James, Peter, Remus, and Sirius, "Start cleaning." She stated.
"But-" James began, but he quickly shut up as McGonagall glared at him, her lips as thin as ever.
"Don't start with me, Filch get some water and soap." She said turning to face the grinning caretaker, "No Magic." She said walking off, as the Great Hall cleared out. It was a mess, it was dripping of syrup and jelly and everything else.
James turned to Ana and Sienna, "You're fights cause way too much TROUBLE." He said glaring as Filch came in with a lot of water, Ana and Sienna only shrugged getting to it, Sienna groaned as she scrubbed under the table, "Who stuck gum to the table? It's gross." She said taking a fork that had been thrown and prying the gum off.
Sirius shrugged, "I don't know, but what I do know is, someone wiped a dry booger to the table." He said curling his nose, everyone crawled over and looked, "Ewww," said Ana, "Who did it?" She asked.
Remus shrugged, "Not a clue, but it's nasty, but could we stop gawking at the snot and get to working here?" He asked.
They all looked at him with a doe in the headlights look, "Can we clean this up?" He said again looking at them all.
They all groaned and started scrubbing, "Oooh pancake." James said picking one up and taking a bite out of it, "Tasty." He said sitting down and eating it.
Ana rolled her eyes, "Potter that was on the floor!" She said making gagging noises, "It's gross." She finished.
"Hey," He defended, "I got no breakfast." He finished his floor pancake and started to scrub, Remus seemed to want nothing to do with Sienna so she acted like she was scrubbing and scrubbed her way towards Remus.
She smiled, "Remus." She said in a sing song voice. Nothing. He just continued to clean up mounds and mounds of wasted Syrup. "Remus, come on." She pouted. He slammed the rag into the water, splashing it everywhere and ignoring her, "I'm sorry." She said pouting.
He sighed and turned around, "Sienna," He said scratching the back of his head, "You have a hot temper, just like Ana." He continued earning a 'hey!' from Ana, "And I've come to ignore this, I know you're sorry, just be nice." He said smiling a little, "You tend to be a bully."
Sienna pouted and then smiled, "So how about that checkers match later?" She asked, grinning at him.
"Didn't forget about it," He said returning to scrubbing, "And I'm kicking you're butt." He said happily.
"You wish." She said putting soap in his hair, "Ha-ha, soap hat." She said laughing as he swiped a sponge across her head, "Ewww, that's nasty." She muttered as he laughed.
Within in two hours, the Great Hall looked like new, McGonagall came in as they all stood up, she looked around making sure they had gotten everything, "Since you missed Charms and Potions," She said glaring, "I've put you're assignments in the Gryffindor common room, I expect them done but tomorrow." She said leaving them, they followed her to Transfiguration a while later after cleaning up their hair.
It went surprisingly slow, all of them were beat from scrubbing all the tables, and the floors and the walls. They barely caught that they had Homework and it needed to be done by tomorrow and turned in. Defense Against the dark arts was a double, till supper, where everyone seemed less rambunctious then earlier that morning, yet they all noticed the Great Hall seemed to be cleaner then normal.
"Hey where's my gum that was under here." A boy said, from behind Sienna, "I was saving that." He pouted.
Sienna and Ana looked at each other with curled noses, "Ewww." They said yawning, it was a hard day for them. After supper they all trudged up to the Common room to see they had loads of Homework to do.
"Holy crap…" Sienna said, seeing they had a huge essay on Potions and a report on Charms, not only that, but they also had a Transfiguration essay and a Defense against the Dark arts essay.
"Too much writing." Sirius complained, "I hate writing." He said throwing himself down on the couch.
Their arms and legs hurt from the scrubbing and they were tired from the work, "Let's make a pact now," James began, "That we never have another food fight in Hogwarts for the rest of our lives." He yawning.
"Ditto to that." Ana said, "I don't ever want to have to pick boogers off of tables that was just disgusting."
"What's disgusting is watching someone eat it!" Remus commented, they all looked at him oddly, "Hey, it was in Charms yesterday, I saw him pick it and eat it." He replied.
They all made gagging noises, "Gross!" James said.
"Too much information!" Sienna chimed.
"Didn't need to know that." Ana said, her face a little green from hearing the story, she nearly wanted to puke.
"Interesting, very interesting." Sirius commented, caressing his imaginary goatee, smiling a little.
"You're sick." Ana said, curling her nose, "It's not interesting it's nasty, let's also vow we never discuss this gross stuff again."
"Yeah," Sienna said sighing, "It makes me want to heave." She finished, grabbing her books and walking to the dorms, "Gonna go do my Homework." She stated.
Remus and James nodded, "Yeah, we're going to go up their too, joining us Padfoot?" James asked.
Sirius shook his head, "Nah, I'd probably fall asleep gonna stay here." He muttered yawning a little.
They all nodded and left Ana and Sirius sitting on the floor in front of the fire, studying, which looked odd, Sirius hated studying, Ana chuckled, she meant to do it to herself but it came out loud.
Sirius looked over, "What?" He asked amused.
"Oh, it just looks weird, that's all." She said smiling.
"What looks weird?" He asked.
"You studying." She explained, looking over, she couldn't help but think he looked really good with his hair hanging down in front of his eyes, and the fire dancing in them, he laughed a little which came out more of a bark.
"Really?" He asked, "I study, just not in front of you." He said laughing more.
She smiled, "You should more, you look good in front of a book." She said, it wasn't often you saw Sirius Black reading it just wasn't apart of him, but to see him in front of a book, it was refreshing.
He smirked wiggling his eyebrows, "Really? I wonder if the ladies will like it…" He said smiling, looking dreamy eyed.
She huffed, "Can we never have a conversation without you thinking about that stuff?" She asked slightly annoyed.
He shrugged, "What, I was just asking…" He said, not realizing every time he was with another girl, it bothered her, it ate her up inside, she wanted to tear every girl he had been with limb from limb.
"You can be blind, sometimes." She replied, as her stomach growled, she hadn't had much at dinner, she was tired at that moment, but she seemed to be getting a second wind all of a sudden.
"Hungry?" He asked, "Wanna go for a midnight snack?" He asked smiling, standing up, and stretching.
She smiled and stood up, "Okay, sure… but dinner is over." She said, frowning slightly, "We can't."
He grinned, "Come on, I'll show you." He said grabbing her hand, which sent chills down her spine, she flushed a little, they walked out of the Portrait hole, they looked around, it was dark, everyone was in bed or studying.
They made sure Filch wasn't around, and he had her running down the halls, he took a left and then right, and stood in front of a wall, he took his wand out and hit it a couple times saying something, there a passageway opened and there was the kitchen house elves running about.
"Mr. Black sir." Said one bowing, Ana rolled her eyes, and refrained from laughing, no wonder he had a big ego.
"Sandwiches?" He asked smiling.
"Yeah, sounds good." Ana said, Sirius told them to make them Sandwiches and they ran about, working quickly, Ana couldn't help but think how they looked a little weird, "House elves huh?" She asked as they were brought their food.
"Yup," he said taking a bite, "Cool huh?" He asked.
"I guess, so you take a lot of girls here?" She asked smirking a little as Sirius coughed on his food.
He shrugged, "Not really, to tell you the truth, you, James, Peter and Remus are the only ones I've taken here." He stated smiling a little.
Ana wasn't sure whether or not to be happy or wonder if she was just one of the guys, "I see, I would have thought maybe you took a lot of girls here." She said.
"If you think, I'm a playboy or something… you're wrong." He said looking a little hurt, "Despite my reputation… I'm not what you think." He stated finishing up.
He seemed upset and now Ana felt like a jerk, "I didn't mean it that way, I mean… I was just curious…" She replied softly.
He shrugged and smiled, "Its okay, look we better get back, studying to do." He said, "Besides I'm sure you have a lot of guys." He stated.
"Why would you think that?" Ana asked surprised.
"Well you're pretty so I just assumed." He stated as they snuck along the halls, she looked over at him in shock.
"Err," She said as they entered the common room, "I'm gonna go study with Sienna," She said nervously, "Bye." She said quickly grabbing her books and running up the steps.
Sirius sighed, "Dummy." He said to himself "Now you've ruined it."
