Chapter Sixteen:Halloween
"LILY THAT'S NOT FAIR!" Ana screamed as she fell to her face on a branch, she had cold snow in her mouth and a scowl on her face, Lily had kicked a branch in her path.
Lily shrugged continuing to run, "Not my fault you can't jump, and I remember you doing something like that in third year to me." Lily yelled back, still ahead of the group.
Ana scowled as Sirius grabbed her arm and drug her along, "Can't let Prongs pass us." He said, not checking to see if Ana was even okay.
She huffed, "Why don't you just sling me over you're shoulder?" She said sarcastically rolling her eyes.
Sirius noticed this was sarcasm but chose to ignore it, he stopped for a moment, turned her to face him, put his arm against her stomach, lifted her and threw her over his shoulder, and she let out a yelp as he started to run again.
"SIRIUS PUT ME DOWN, IT WAS SARCASM!" She screamed, as she looked down and saw snow and rocks zooming past on the ground, and a nice view of Sirius' butt, she blushed a crimson red catching herself staring. "PUT ME DOWN." She said sternly.
She felt Sirius tap her butt as if he was giving her a spanking, she heard him snigger a little, "Be a good girl, so we can win this race." He responded.
Ana grinned and smacked his butt, "Go faster then." With that she started to brew up a plot of revenge against him, she grinned evilly as her mind started to work. She saw Sienna and Remus right up next to them James was behind, since he hadn't had a good start, and it didn't help Sirius had pushed him a few times; competitively.
Finally they made it to Hogwarts, Lily was first, of course Ana and Sirius were tied, and then came Sienna and Remus; James was the last one to reach the school. He scowled at his friends, who continued to laugh as all the students from Hogsmeade were getting back, crowding the halls again.
Sirius put Ana down, who had a grin on her face, "You're plotting against me aren't you?" Sirius asked in mock fright.
Ana raised her eyebrows, "Now, why would I do that?" She grinned.
"So," James said grinning, "You all don't really expect me to… tell McGonagall I'm in love with her…right?" He asked looking at his friends.
They all stared at him for a while before bursting into fits of laughter, "Right, James, you must have us confused with friends that care." Sienna laughed.
James pouted, "This is a cold hearted group." He said shaking his head.
Lily shrugged, "And yet you hang out with us." She pointed out grinning at him.
James shook his head, "Let's just go eat, I'm starving." He said rubbing his hands together as they made their way to the Great Hall. After dinner, they all trudged back to the Common Room suddenly they all felt tired from the day's events.
Sienna yawned, but she knew she had to study for a History of Magic test. Tiredly she walked upstairs and grabbed her book to go back down to the Common Room; she knew if she stayed in the Dorm room she'd fall asleep.
She came back down and the only person there was Remus who was reading something. Sienna smiled at him as she sat down on the couch next him. "Hi." She said making herself comfortable.
"Hullo…History of Magic huh?" He asked looking at the book Sienna had in her hands.
She groaned, "Yes, I have trouble with it, I hate it, it should die; it's not that I don't want to learn, but… it's BORING. I find Professor Bin's annoying; and it's cold in there, and-" Sienna rambled.
"You're rambling," Remus laughed, "And every time you hate something you say it should die; just so you know books can't die." He replied.
Sienna scowled, "I'm always rambling, don't you find it endearing?" She pouted.
Remus rolled his eyes, "You're insane." He said.
Sienna shrugged, "I know, but that's why you love me right." She teased, "I'm a complex creature." Sienna laughed.
Remus raised an eyebrow, "No kidding." He ribbed.
She scrunched her face up at him and glared playfully, "And just what is that suppose to mean?" She laughed.
"That you're crazy and unpredictable." He answered.
Sienna raised an eyebrow, "Really, huh?" She said, she leaned closer to him, "I can be spontaneous too." She said.
Remus smirked, "Oh?" He asked wondering what was going through her mind. He was now completely facing her.
"Yeah," She said softly, she was only itches away from his face, however it was Remus that made the first move. He leaned in and kissed her softly and pulled back looking to see if she was upset by it.
She wasn't, this time she took control, she leaned in and kissed him more passionately, he wrapped his arms around her waist the minute she put hers around his shoulders. The kiss was growing hot, Sienna pulled away breathing heavily. "Wow." She said running her fingers over her numb lips.
She was slightly dazed, Remus chuckled and trailed kisses down her jaw line, she laughed when he kissed her neck, "That tickles." She said.
Remus laughed and kissed her on the lips, making her feel slightly brain-dead, "You should continue studying." He replied softly.
Sienna sighed and nodded, knowing he was right, "Yeah." Sienna was actually a little nervous and scared, Remus was making her feel things she had never felt before. It was a little unnerving.
She took a shaky breath and resumed studying, but she couldn't concentrate her body was on fire, the way he kissed her and touched her made her go wild. It scared her a little, since she had never felt like this before.
Sienna shifted again tiredly, and laid her head on Remus' shoulder… BIG mistake. Within a few minutes Remus looked down and found Sienna was fast asleep, holding an open book of History of Magic. She hadn't even gotten past the first page.
Remus sighed, he really didn't want to try and wake her up, he had tried that before, and it was horrible she was so crabby and moody; if disturbed, he laid his book down on the table, and shifted around, he laid back on the couch. Sienna kind of fell over and found comfort resting her head on his waist.
He sighed, and got himself comfortable, he pulled his wand out and muttered something, and the lights dimmed, Sienna yawned a little bit, and patted his stomach as if she was fluffing a pillow.
With that, she laid back down and that was it for both of their movements.
Next Morning…
They stood over the two with raised eyebrows, she had slid up and her head was buried in his neck, his arms were around her waist; both looked very comfortable.
He was snoring softly and she was just making odd breathing sounds. The one turned to his friend, "Looks like they had a little midnight romp." He said wiggling his eyebrows.
"Padfoot do you have to make everything so dirty?" The other asked turning to Sirius.
"Prongs, we're men, of course we make everything dirty." Sirius replied rolling his eyes.
James shook his head, he then grinned, and knelt down in front of the couch, he leaned down towards Remus' ear, "WAKE UP SLEEPING BEAUTY." He yelled.
Remus jumped a little, his eyes flew open and he turned his head to come face to face, with a grinning James Potter. Sienna was starting to stir, her arms were still wrapped around Remus' neck as he got up into a sitting position; making Sienna kneel in front of him. Although her head was still on his shoulder, she hated mornings.
She was quiet for a while, during the time Remus lectured James and Sirius who just grinned at him. All of a sudden it hit her, what happened, she pulled away in panic. "I didn't get any studying done!" She said trying to untangle herself from Remus.
Sirius looked down at the open book on the table; he picked it up and shook his head. He never did understand her obsessive compulsive ways, "I've seen you study for this over and over." He stated.
She raised an eyebrow, "Yeah, it's the same thing with every test with History of Magic, I barely pass." She replied.
James shrugged, "So? You passed what more do you want?" He said clearly confused.
Sienna rolled her eyes, "A better grade, gonna go shower." She said, she would have kissed Remus, but with James and Sirius there; it would become embarrassing. Sirius seemed to like to tease people when they showed public displays of affection.
She stood up, and waved at Remus who was still slightly groggy, she walked up the steps to the girl's dorm room. When she walked in both Ana and Lily were grinning at her. "So," Ana began, making Sienna groan, " Midnight Tip-toe last night?" She asked.
Sienna shook her head, "I fell asleep studying." She replied.
Lily burst into laughter, "Likely story!" She giggled.
Sienna pouted, "But it's true!" She defended making Ana and Lily laugh even harder.
"Are you telling me, that you were next to a good looking guy, and you fell asleep studying next to him?" Lily asked raising an eyebrow.
Sienna shifted, "Yes." She said evenly.
"Ha!" Ana replied, "You and Remus got kinky…" She wiggled her eyebrows making Sienna roll her eyes.
"Whatever." She yawned, grabbing her robes and trudging into the bathroom, for a quick shower.
In the common room, with James, Remus and Sirius, it was pretty quiet. James talked Remus into playing some Exploding Snap with him. There were classes today, but after Dinner time in the Great Hall, the Halloween party would begin.
"So Remus, you gotten Sienna in bed yet?" Sirius asked wiggling his eyebrows.
Remus turned a delicate shade of pink, "Being in a relationship, Sirius, is more the bedding someone. Even if I did, it wouldn't be any of you're business." Remus replied shortly out of embarrassment.
Sirius raised an eyebrow, "So is that a yes?" He asked, continuing to pester Remus about it.
Remus growled, "No, I haven't, Sirius."
Sirius grinned, "Ah, you should take the relationship to the next level; you've known her for how many years now."
Remus rolled his eyes, "I know that, and when and if we do, it'll be on our time, when she's ready; and it won't be anything we'll broadcast." Remus replied, as he continued to play Exploding Snap with James.
Sirius grinned, "Ana and I have already taken it to the next level, and she thinks I'm a God in bed." He said cockily.
Remus raised an eyebrow, trying to figure out if that was a lie or not; he honestly couldn't see Ana saying 'yes' to it already.
"Oh, I do, do I? And in what dream of yours did I tell you this?" Ana's voice came, as she walked down the steps from the girl's dorm rooms; she seemed slightly annoyed.
Sirius looked nervous, "Heh, joke?" He offered.
She walked passed him without saying a word, "I would appreciate it, if you wouldn't spread lies about me." She stated sitting down on the couch.
After that the air in the room was thick with tension, James actually didn't do his stupid usually of conjuring a knife and saying, "I'm cutting the tension."
Remus was thankful he didn't do anything stupid, a few moments later Sienna came down with Lily, who was still teasing her. "Lily, stuff it already." Sienna said testily, only making Lily laugh harder.
Remus raised an eyebrow, and James asked, "What's she doing?" He asked.
"She insists Remus and I had sex last night." Sienna said nonchalantly.
James grinned and asked, "Did you?" He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.
She huffed, WHY is everyone SO obsessed with my sex life? Hell, I don't even have one! She thought to herself.
"No," Sienna said digging through her school bag, "And if we did we wouldn't do it in the Gryffindor Common Room." She rolled her eyes.
Sirius' curiosity got the better of him, "And just where would you do it?" He asked.
Sienna shrugged, "There are plenty of places, Astronomy tower…" For some reason she was feeling bold, maybe it was the annoyance of Lily teasing her; or maybe the new feelings she was experiencing; no matter she was feeling quite good this morning.
Ana perked up, "There's also the Quidditch Pitch," She laughed earning a raised eyebrow from Sirius.
He grinned, "Had you thought about this?" He asked.
"Yeah, I wondered if that's where James would drag Lily, you know since he's obsessed with Quidditch." She grinned.
Sirius' face fell, "Oh… yeah."
Lily's face was bright red, even James' was, "Call me old fashioned but what happened to commencing a physical relationship; in the bedroom?" Lily asked fidgeting, James nodded in agreement.
Sienna grinned, "Oh come on, are you saying you've never felt a little experimental?" She asked.
"I can't believe we're all having this conversation." Remus commented, eyes wide.
Sienna shrugged, "Neither can I, but it's interesting." She replied flashing a grin at him.
Remus swallowed hard, he hated the way she made him feel and how she drove him wild, yet he liked. She turned back to Ana grinning, "There's also the Room of Requirement." Sienna pointed out.
Lily was quite ashamed when she said, "There's also the lake…" She said sheepishly.
"Ewww," James said, "The Lake has the Giant Squid…" He looked thoroughly disgusted.
Ana shrugged, "I'm sure if you go to a certain spot, it won't bother you." She reasoned.
Remus stood up a little flustered, "I think it's time for class." He said briskly, grabbing his things and walking ahead.
Sienna raised an eyebrow and walked up to him, "Aw, are you uncomfortable with the discussion?" She said smiling a little.
"Not at all," He said looking over at Sienna; his eyes weren't their usual Amber but a dark honey color. "I didn't think you were that bold." He said.
Sienna shrugged, "Neither did I, it's almost like I couldn't control what was coming out of my mouth." She said frowning.
There was silence for a while, Remus seemed like he wanted to ask something. Finally after what seemed like forever he asked, "Have you thought about it?" He asked curiously.
Sienna turned and looked at him, "What? You mean sex?" She asked. Remus nodded looking at her. Sienna was silent for a while and then sighed, "Yeah, I have. I was actually a little scared last night." She confessed.
Remus raised an eyebrow, "Oh?"
Sienna nodded, "Yeah, even with you just kissing me, and touching me, I felt like I was on fire; I felt things I had never felt before. It was unnerving, yet I liked it at the same time." She replied.
Remus was quiet for a while, and Sienna wondered if she had said something to upset him; so of course this threw her into a panic. As they continued to walk down the hall she fidgeted with the straps of her school bag, almost wanting to scream out, "Say something!" However, she didn't, she just felt herself growing more and more nervous at his silence.
It was what young adults thought about, right? Was it bad to be curious? Was it bad to wonder what all the fuss about sex was about? Sienna wasn't sure, but lately she had wondered a lot about it.
Remus seemed to be deep in thought, she sneaked a glance at him, but his eyes were hooded by his hair falling into his face. She couldn't see any body language that suggested he was upset. The only thing that suggested it, was his deadly silence.
"I've thought about it too." He said finally, making Sienna breathe a sigh of relief.
"Really? I was beginning to think, I was weird." She laughed.
"Heh, you ARE weird." Ana's voice came, as she caught up with them, grinning.
"Nah, I'm the crazy one in the group." Sienna said amusedly.
Ana shrugged, "I don't know, between you and James it's a pretty close call, on who is the craziest." Ana laughed, making Remus chuckle.
Sienna scowled, "I am the craziest and always will be." She joked as Sirius came up and looked at her oddly.
He then shook his head, "That's really something to be proud of." He ribbed.
"Oh shut up, you're the moody one, of the group." Sienna countered hearing Ana mutter, "nice".
Sirius frowned, "I'm not moody… I'm complex." As he said this, they reached their first class, for most of the day it was uneventful, Ana still seemed upset at Sirius; and Remus and Sienna seemed a little nervous or… bothered. James and Lily seemed to be the only ones unaffected.
It wasn't until Transfiguration when things got interesting. James slowly stood up in class; he couldn't believe he was doing this.
"Go get you're girl Prongs," Sirius teased wiggling his eyebrows.
James shot him a glare, daring Sirius to say anything more. Sienna was laughing along with Lily and Ana, Remus was trying to hide his amusement. There was the faintest smirk on his face; James didn't seem to be too pleased with his friends that they were making him do this. McGonagall noticed James was standing up and said, "What on earth are you doing Potter? Take a seat." She said sternly.
James shifted and did nothing, "Potter, sit down." She repeated her lips thinning, which she usually did when losing her patience.
James took a deep breath, "I have something to say." He cringed.
She huffed a little and said, "Well, go on!" Her lips were thinning even more.
"I, James Potter, am in love with you Minerva." He looked a little green, and McGonagall looked pissed.
Her lips were now so thin that they were turning white, "Detention. With Filch tomorrow, now take a seat!" She screamed glaring so hard it seemed her eyes might spew fire from them, her lips so thin you might think she was biting her lips, from how white they were.
The class laughed James sunk into his seat, he looked at his friends who were laughing. Traitors. He thought bitterly.
Finally after about thirty minutes, McGonagall stood, "If you haven't finished you're essay's, please finish them by Tuesday. You're all excused, and Happy Halloween." She said nodding and gathering her things up.
"YES!" Sirius said throwing his hands up in the air grinning, Ana smiled a little at his enthusiasm. McGonagall looked over to where Sirius was and glared, but said nothing. They all put their parchment, quills and ink bottles in their bags, along with their books.
The class was moving fast, as this was the last class of the day, and people were excited for dinner, and then the Halloween Party. The only thing Sienna hated was that they had a thousand live bats flying around and it freaked her out. Her first year, she had seen them, she had screamed and hid under the table, which was where she met Remus.
He had heard her scream and looked under the table to see her shaking and peeking out at all the bats.
Flashback
Sienna walked into the Great Hall for the Halloween Feast, however she did not expect to see what she saw. All around the Great Hall, fluttering around the ceiling were at least a thousand live bats flying around.
Sienna's face went white as she looked around, she would have darted out, but by the time she had noticed them, she was at the Gryffindor table; and it was a long run out of the Hall.
She let out a scream and fell to the floor and dived under the table, peeking out seeing them all flutter around. Remus had been sitting at the table, when he heard a yelp, he saw red hair fly down and dive under the table; in a flash.
He sat there for a moment confused, he bent down and peeked under the table to see a girl looking at the bats in fear. He got off of the bench and crawled under the table to see what was wrong.
"Hullo…" He said.
The girl's head whipped around as she let out a scream, once she realized it was only another Gryffindor she calmed down a little, "Oh, Hi, sorry, I didn't know you liked to be under the table. It's just those bats, their so scary, I hate bats; I heard they suck you're blood!" She said her eyes growing large, "I heard a Slytherin boy…. Snape or something, say they can kill you! Why would they have bats if they could kill you? Oh, I'm Sienna by the way." She rambled on, mostly out of nervousness.
Remus found this amusing, "I'm Remus, and they won't hurt you." He informed her, "They stay away from us, and I've never heard of a bat killing someone," He said trying to hide his amusement.
She frowned, "You're finding this funny aren't you?" She asked.
Remus tried to hid his grin but it was no use, "Of course not." He lied.
Sienna raised an eyebrow and grinned, "Well, thanks for lying to me and making me feel better." She laughed, at least he was TRYING to hide his amusement; so she wouldn't feel bad.
He laughed, "No problem, and don't mind Snape, he's kind of bitter, he does that just to scare people. He hates Gryffindor's." Remus said holding out his hand to help her up.
She smiled and took it, they both stood up to meet two grinning male faces. "Remus you sly thing." Said one with dark hair, falling into his face.
Remus rolled his eyes, "Shut up Sirius, she was afraid of the bats." Remus said.
Sirius grinned and draped his arm around Sienna's shoulder, "Aw, they won't hurt you, we'll protect you." He laughed.
Remus shook his head, as the other said, "Well aren't you going to introduce us?" He asked, this one had brown eyes, and very messy black hair; with glasses on.
Remus scowled, "Sienna this is Sirius," He said pointing to the one that had his arm draped around her, "and this is James, their both idiots sometimes." He laughed earning scowls from James and Sirius.
Sienna grinned, "I'm Sienna nice to meet you." From then on, she became close friends with the Marauders.
End of Flashback
Sienna smiled slightly at the memory, by this time Remus had approached her. "Hullo," He said and then noticed her grin, "What are you smiling about?" He asked.
"Oh, remembering when we met…" She laughed.
Remus smirked, "Yeah, I had to save you from the big bad, evil, blood-sucking; killer bats." He teased.
Sienna pouted, "I was only eleven." She defended.
He nodded, "And very gullible to believe Snape." He ribbed her, making her roll her eyes.
"You better stop while you're ahead Mr. Lupin." She said slinging her bag over her shoulder.
Remus waggled his eyebrows, "Well Ms. Costello, if I'm ahead, why should I stop?" He laughed.
Sienna laughed, "Witty Remus, witty."
They made it out into the Hall, which was now filled with students talking excitedly, and discussing what they would wear to the Party. Lily caught up with Sienna grinning, "Did I tell you what I was going to be?" She asked.
Sienna shook her head, "You said you weren't sure, you said maybe a Roman Goddess."
Lily grinned, "Oh well, I decided finally. I'm going to be a Southern Belle, it's some sort of person in America. The dress and everything was so pretty, I just had to be it!" She said excitedly.
Sienna grinned, imagining Lily as one, her red hair and everything would make her look so beautiful, along with her beautiful pale skin. "Awesome, I can't wait to see you, it sounds beautiful!"
Lily nodded, "I can't wait till James sees me, " She blushed a little, "Anyway, what's Ana going to be?" She asked.
Sienna shrugged, "Wouldn't tell me, supposed to be a surprise I guess." Sienna sighed.
Remus nodded, "I heard Sirius asking her, and she told him to bugger off, that it was a surprise; of course that didn't stop Sirius from continuing to badger her about it." He said shaking his head.
They walked to the Great Hall for dinner, they would eat, and then an hour later the Halloween Party would begin. Ana, Sirius and James caught up with them as they entered the live bats were already loose inside the Hall. Sienna latched onto Remus, those things still gave her the creeps.
Hagrid had grown pumpkins and they were now being used for Pumpkin Pie, and decorations, with candles lit in them. Flaming orange streamers swam across the ceiling with the bats, giving it a very Halloween feel.
They walked over to the Gryffindor table, and ate, most of the students were eating quickly, because they wanted to get to the party. About an hour later, dinner was over and everyone rushed out of the Great Hall and to their Common Rooms to get into their costumes.
They reached the Gryffindor Common Room and Sienna ran up the stairs and put her books away, she came back down when Lily and Ana didn't come up. She wanted to see what they were doing.
"Gonna go change in the boys dorm room," Ana announced, they all stared at her oddly.
"What? I might need help, besides, I hear the bathrooms in the Boys dorm rooms are bigger." She commented.
With that, she bounded up the stairs to the girls dorm room, got her bag with the outfit in it, and ran back down, and up to the boys dorm room; Sirius right behind her.
Sienna raised an eyebrow, "Right, I'm gonna go get into mine," She said, and with that her and Lily ran up the steps, and James and Remus went to the boys dorms.
"I think Ana wanted an excuse to be with Sirius… alone." Lily giggled pulling out a beautiful white ruffled dress, with black around the edges.
Sienna nodded, "Oooh, that's pretty!" She said in awe, staring at the dress.
Lily grinned, "Thanks," she said running to the bathroom to change. Since Lily wasn't in the room, Sienna decided to just change in the dorm room. The pulled out the top and then the bottom skirt and laid it on the bed.
She quickly pulled her clothes off, and started to get into her costume, it didn't take long, and she was starting to put all the bracelets and stuff on that went with it.
The outfit itself was wildly colored, and had different pieces of cloth and beads and coins hanging from it, giving it a Gypsy look. It took her awhile to apply the makeup since she was really obsessive about it; and had to make sure it looked just right.
She stared at her hair, it looked frizzy and puffy, she pressed her hands into her hair trying to keep it down, but it didn't work. She glared at the mirror, and searched around for her wand.
It was no where to be found, she stood up and walked over to her bed and searched in her bag, she then went over to her nightstand and dug through there.
She frowned looking around, her eyes landing on her robes, she dug in one of the pockets, and found her wand. Sighing with relief, she walked back over to the mirror and sat down in front of it.
She took her wand and did a spell to get her hair to tame, slightly satisfied she set her wand down and sighed. She wasn't completely content.
She couldn't figure out why, probably because she was nervous for some reason. Lily came out of the bathroom finally, and Sienna turned around and grinned.
"That's beautiful!" She gasped, the dress fit Lily beautifully, it was white with black edging on it; the top had sleeves that went down to show her shoulders, it was ruffled around the edges giving it a feminine look. Along with it, were small white lacy gloves, and then a white hat, that completed the look.
Lily grinned, "Really?" She asked looking Sienna over with approval, "You look great too, I'm sure Remus will like it." She said wiggling her eyebrows.
Sienna shook her head, "I'm sure James will like you too." She said making Lily blush.
They both walked out of the dorm room and down to the Common Room, where James, and Remus were already there, in their costumes and waiting.
Remus looked good, Ana was right that he would look good as a Roman God, the outfit seemed to cling to his chest, making Sienna's eyes grow large. Lily elbowed her, "Looks good huh?" She asked noticed Sienna's look.
The feelings Sienna had had the previous night were returning, and driving her crazy. "Yeah," Sienna nodded, tearing her eyes away. "James looks good too." She pointed out.
Lily grinned, "He does." She said as the girls walked down and came into view, Remus and James looked over.
James' jaw dropped upon seeing Lily, it was obvious he approved, Remus was looking at Sienna in awe too, "You look great…" He said thickly.
Sienna smiled and blushed a little, "You look great too." She replied.
James was still staring at Lily for a few moments before he said, "You look beautiful." Lily blushed at this and thanked him shyly.
"Where's Ana and Sirius?" Sienna asked looking around.
"Hmm, their still in the boys dorm room," Remus said, "Let's go check on them."
They all trudged up the stairs to the door of the dorm room when they heard, "Sirius, go faster, or I'm going to rip all the hair out of you're head." Ana said strained.
Remus and Sienna along with James and Lily raised their eyebrows. "What are they doing in there?" Sienna asked afraid of the answer.
Remus smirked a little, "With Sirius anything is possible." He replied.
James grinned, as they heard, "Well, I'm sorry Ana, I can't get in! Move over a little, and I can." Sirius complained.
Sienna's eyes got large, "No…they couldn't be…" She said amused and slightly grossed out.
James sighed, "Let's go in and check on them." He said, and before anyone could protest, he opened the door to the dorm room.
Ana glared at Sirius, "If this bathroom wasn't such a pit, I wouldn't be being shoved against the counter, so you can get in; all so you can help me zip up my outfit." Ana growled.
Sirius frowned, "It's not that messy!" He protested.
"Sirius, you have candy wrappers everywhere, Butterbeer bottles, brushes, toothbrushes, clothes that haven't been cleaned in who knows how long; and a bunch of other crap." She replied shaking her head.
Sirius sighed as he slid in, nearly falling when he stepped on a Butterbeer bottle. He finally got behind Ana and zipped up the dress to her outfit. She breathed a sigh of relief and pushed her way out the door, since her dress was pretty big.
"Hola, Glenda." Sienna said as Ana came out, she grinned.
James raised an eyebrow, "Whose Glenda?" He asked.
Lily sighed, "It's a Muggle book, called the Wizard of Oz, Glenda is the Good Witch." Lily explained.
James nodded, "Ah, I see. Well, are we all ready now?" He asked looking at them all.
Ana sighed, "Yes, finally, you all need to clean that bathroom." She said shaking her head, as they all filed out to the Common Room and then making their way to the Great Hall.
When they got there, there were tons of people already there, and all the different costumes were interesting to see. Sienna saw Snape dressed as some sort of Phantom. Most of the Slytherin's were dressed in dark costumes.
Sienna felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to see Kat the Slytherin girl, she was dressed as a Dark Prophetess, she wore a purple velvet dress, with a long silver cross necklace hanging down. The dress had a hood, but Kat currently had it down.
"Sienna, I haven't seen you in a while!" She said smiling brightly, but she looked really tired and drained, not to mention depressed. She had dark rings under her eyes., they looked hollow.
Sienna smiled, "Yeah I know, it's a been a while, how are you?" She asked.
"Oh, I'm fine, say, what are you doing for Christmas?" She asked suddenly.
Sienna shrugged, "Probably go home for the Holiday's… why?" She asked, as Remus whispered, "Gonna go get us something to drink."
Sienna looked over and smiled, "Yeah, I'll be over with you in a minute." She said sneaking a kiss. She turned back to Kat who looked slightly amused.
"Well, my family, the distant relatives invited me to this Christmas Party, at some huge mansion, and I was wondering if you and you're friends would like to come? I was told I could invite anyone I wanted." She said happily and almost hopefully, she had a slight begging tone to her voice.
Sienna grinned, "Sure, I'll talk to my friends about it, sounds cool. Is it a formal dance?" She asked.
Kat nodded, "Yeah, if you go, I'm sure a nice… cocktail dress or maybe just a really dressy kind of dress will do." She said, as a good looking Slytherin boy walked over, and dragged her to the dance floor.
With that Sienna grinned and turned and found Remus getting some Pumpkin Juice. She walked up behind up and whispered in his ear, "Boo." She laughed.
Remus grinned and turned around, setting the drinks on the table, he wrapped his arms around her and kissed her, she giggled into his mouth.
"What?" He asked.
Sienna shrugged, "I don't know, I'm just really happy." She grinned, leaning her forehead against his.
"Wanna dance?" He asked smiling at her.
Sienna laughed again and nodded, "Sure." She said as Remus stood in front of her.
He put one hand behind his back, took one of Sienna's hands in his and bent down and kissed it, "May I have this dance?" He asked.
Sienna giggled, which was odd, she was never this happy and worry-free. "Yes, you may Good Sir." She grinned, Remus led her out and she put her arms around his neck and his were on her waist.
"So you remember when we first met?" Remus asked, Sienna nodded. "Are you going to be one of those women, who will get mad if I don't remember every single thing; and put me in a headlock?" He asked smirking.
Sienna frowned, "Ewww, no, I've vowed never to do that. Are you going to be a man that will put me in a headlock if I don't remember every single thing?" She asked.
Remus thought about it for a moment and then said, "Yes, I will be." He teased.
Sienna scowled, "It's not nice to be ladies in headlocks." She pouted.
Remus scoffed, "I didn't know I was dancing with a lady." He replied.
Sienna rolled her eyes and hit him on the chest playfully, "Be nice." She laughed.
Remus grinned, "And what if I don't?" He asked.
Sienna raised an eyebrow, "Well, then I'll have to punish you." She grinned.
"Will it be painful?" He asked.
Sienna stared at him with her mouth open blushing slightly; and then shook her head, "You're more kinky then I thought." She said.
Remus grinned, "Oh come on, there are two ways to take that statement." He countered.
Sienna nodded, "True, but I'm sure you meant it in a dirty way." She said.
He dipped her for no reason in particular, "It made you blush." He smirked.
Sienna blushed again, "I did not blush." She said as Remus pulled her back up to him.
Remus grinned, "Oh yes you did, I distinctly remember faint pink spots on you're cheek." He teased.
Sienna blushed again looking to the side, Remus took his finger and turned her to face him and kissed her deeply, once again Sienna giggled.
Ana and Sirius were sitting on chairs, she still seemed upset about his earlier statement. "You owe me an apology about making up that lie." She said stubbornly.
Sirius grinned, "I love how the light shines on you're blonde hair," He complimented.
Ana turned away, "You owe me an apology." She said again.
"I just love how you're eyes sparkle when you laugh…" He said, getting closer to her.
Ana sighed, "You. Owe. Me. An. Apology." She repeated.
"And I just love you're ears, perfect…" He said and leaned in nibbling on her earlobe, Ana didn't say anything but he heard her sigh contently.
He pulled away and she turned to face him, "I'm sorry." He said pouting at her with his beautiful grey eyes.
She sighed, "Okay." She grinned, "Wanna dance?" She asked him standing up and pushing her chair in.
Sirius grinned and stood up as well, "It would be my pleasure." He said extending his arm towards her.
She smiled and took it, as he led her to the dance floor, a few people away, Lily and James were dancing happily, and he seemed to be whispering Sweet Nothings in her ear; because she had the biggest grin ever on her face.
Two Hours Later…
Sienna was a little skeptical, she looked at James and Sirius who seemed to be serious about doing this and ditching the party. Sienna couldn't read what Ana was thinking, "Come on, Truth and Dare would be fun," James grinned as Sirius piped up.
"Come Ana, or are you…a chicken?" He said waggling his eyebrows, Sienna rolled her eyes.
Ana grinned, "Why would I be scared of you Sirius, you're just one big ol' puppy dog." She teased.
Sirius rolled his eyes and finally they all agreed to play Truth or Dare. They all snuck out of the Party and walked down the empty halls towards the Gryffindor Common Room. Once there Sirius told the password and they walked through the portrait hole.
Sirius sat down on the floor and patted it, "Come sit down." They all walked over and sat down in a circle, they all had grins plastered on their faces.
Sienna was already getting ideas on what dares and questions she wanted to ask. "Alright, whose starting?" Lily asked.
Everyone pointed to Sirius, "Lily will start with Sirius." James said.
Lily nodded and said, "Truth or Dare?" She asked.
Sirius thought about and then said, "Truth." Getting a boo from James.
"Alright," Lily said in thought, "Is it true that when you first came to Hogwarts, you slept with a teddy bear?" She asked grinning.
Sirius scowled, "What happens if I lie?" He asked.
"Whose a chicken now Sirius?" Ana asked laughing.
He scowled, "Oh, alright, yes it's true." He said blushing a little, "BUT I DON'T ANYMORE." He said as they all started to snigger.
"Okay, Sirius, you can ask Sienna a question now." James said wiping tears away from his laughter.
Sirius grinned and turned to Sienna, "Truth or Dare?" He asked her.
Sienna thought about it and decided to be daring, "Dare." She replied getting a huge grin from Sirius.
He thought about it for a moment and then said, "I dare you, to go to the top of the Astronomy Tower and yell, "I love Remus Lupin." Really loud." He said wiggling his eyebrows.
Sienna blushed slightly and James whistled earning a smack from Lily. "Now?" She asked.
"Yes, now." Sirius said, "And to make sure you do this, we will all go with you!" He laughed.
Sienna grumbled and stood up, they all followed her out and Remus was slightly grinning, amused by this. They walked out of the portrait hole, and then walked up several flights of stairs to get to the Astronomy Tower.
Once at the Tower, she took a deep breath and walked over to the edge, "Go on." Sirius said when she hesitated, there were a bunch of students outside on the grounds.
She sucked in her breath and yelled, "I love Remus Lupin!" Really loud, before the students looked up, Sirius grabbed Sienna by the back of her shirt and started dragging her down the steps.
They were all laughing hysterically, as they ran through the halls and back to the Common Room, by the time they got back they could barely breath.
Even Sienna was laughing at the confused faces of the students at the sudden outburst. They all sat back down and calmed a little, Sienna was still laughing along with James.
"Sienna, ask James something." Ana grinned excitedly.
"Truth or Dare?" She asked.
"Dare." James said without a blink of the eye.
Sienna thought hard and then said, "I dare you to conjure some whip cream and put it down you're pants." She said.
James looked disgusted, he pulled out his wand and conjured a can of whipped cream. He shook it up and stuck it down his pants and sprayed it. He looked grossed out, Sirius was nearly wetting himself with laughter.
James sat down, and you could hear it squish in his pants, "My turn." He said shifting a bit, "Ana, Truth or Dare?" He asked.
"Dare." She said bravely.
He grinned, "I dare you to take whipped cream, spray it on Sirius' stomach and lick it off." Lily again smacked James on the back of the head.
Ana sighed and conjured another can of whipped cream, Sirius was looking a little nervous. "Lay down Sirius." She commanded.
Sienna was giggling like crazy, Sirius laid down and lifted his shirt, Ana sprayed some of it on his stomach and took in a shaky breath.
She leaned down and started to lick it off, Lily wanted to kill James, Remus and Sienna were fidgeting, and Sirius would be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying it.
Finally she reached the end, and she swore she heard him gasp a little when her tongue came in contact with his skin. Sirius sat up and so did Ana.
All of them were looking sheepish, "So," James said, "I think it's getting late, we should get to bed." He said, sexual tension was thick in the air, and it was a good idea that the girls get away from the guys for a while.
They all nodded in agreement, "First smart thing you've said." Lily teased a little to James, they all said goodnight to one another and then walked to their separate dorm rooms. Sienna sighed as she threw herself on her bed, finally in her Pajama's.
"Tonight was fun," She said truthfully.
Lily and Ana nodded getting into their beds, "Yeah, even if the last part was a little nerve racking, it was fun all in all." Ana said as Lily turned out the lights.
Once they all snuggled into bed it wasn't long and they were all sound asleep.
