16. The Duel

*Third Person's POV*

"You've got other plans?" Jacob asked.
"Wha...what plan?" Kitty asked confused. "And why are you trying to make things awkward?"
Sirius laughed. "Our duelling plan, Pryde."
"Did someone say duelling?" James asked.
"Yeah. Sirius challenged her to a duel," Lily rolled her eyes.
"Any bets?" Sirius asked others.
Kitty groaned. "Are you kidding?"
"No, I'm Sirius," he laughed.
Kitty looked at him from head to toe.
"No offence. Padfoot is the best at duelling," James said.
The others agreed.
"Neither wins. It would be a tie," Remus said coolly.
"I think so too," Lily nodded.
"What?" Sirius looked a bit offended at Remus. "A tie? We're talking about Pryde and I."
"I know," Remus nodded.
Sirius scoffed. "How in the name of Merlin's shaggy balls would it be a tie? I've been duelling for years. I'm a pro. I never lost to anyone." He doesn't like being told that he can't win.
"I agree. You never lost. But you were tied with the opponent a couple of times," Remus shrugged.
"You think she's a match?" Sirius scoffed.
There were collective ooohs.
Kitty was offended but she didn't show. "Just one way to find out, right?" she smiled. And Sirius knew it wasn't a warm smile, but a cold and a sarcastic one. "I understand what you mean. You are a pro and I'm an amateur..."
"Ahem," James and Remus cleared their throats to remind them that people are around and listening.
"But you can't just simply judge without trying, can you?" Kitty raised her eyebrows.
"Ah, this sounds more exciting and tempting than naked women and food," Sirius said with an evil grin.
"You bet," Kitty smirked.
"Any bets then?" Sirius looked around.
They looked from one another, uncertain and confused.
"What is this?" Sirius looked around confused and surprised.
"You know, we'd bet on you. But... Remus' opinion have thrown us into confusion," Alice said.
"Do you have to do this?" Jacob asked Kitty.
She smiled. "Yeah. I usually don't back off from something interesting and challenging. Even though I think...or I know that things might not be in my favour."
"I don't know about you lads, but I'll bet on Sirius," Fabian said.
Most of them agreed.
"So...you are all sure Sirius would win?" Kitty raised her eyebrows. A smile was playing on her lips.
"Sorry, but I'm with Padfoot," James said.
"Wormtail?" Sirius turned to Peter. "You haven't said anything."
Peter looked conflicted. "I...I..." He sighed. "I want to go with you. But... Moony's intuitions are almost correct every time and Lily seconded," he said nervously.
"Aahhh... You three are traitors," Sirius scoffed, looking at Remus, Peter and Lily.
At that Peter choked on his drink and, Remus closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Those words from Sirius hurt Remus a bit and frightened Peter too. They both remember what Kitty told them. Fortunately, no one noticed.
"Remus," Kitty smiled at him. "I don't think I'm confident enough. But, I will not let you down."
"Keep your word," he grinned.
"Alright, let's bring it on," Sirius got to his feet.
"Padfoot, we still have few guests," James said looking around.
"Where...are you going to do this? I don't think this is a right place," Jacob asked.
"Not here," Sirius laughed. "Back at the Manor."
"Why? You...you wanna go with us?" Kitty asked.
"I...if only... you don't have a problem," he replied.
"I..." Kitty looked at James.
"Sure," James grinned. "We might need a healer on the spot."
Sirius glared at James.
"Aish! Why do you think it would be bloody?" Kitty said incredulously. "You wanna make it bloody?" She looked at Sirius.
Sirius smirked.
Kitty blinked and got to her feet. "Black?" She felt uneasy. She doesn't want to hurt him.
"Don't worry. I'll go easy on you," he chuckled.
Kitty looked him from head to toe. "Woah. You're disturbing my ego, mate."
Sirius just laughed. "So, who else is going with us?"
"Uh...it's already late though," Emmeline said looking at her watch. "I don't think I can come. I had a long day. Let me know what happened."
Everyone looked at each other.

*Jacob's POV*

I pulled Katherine aside.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" I asked concerned.
"Why? You think I'd lose?" She smiled.
"No. It's just...you might get hurt."
She chuckled. I find her cute when she does that. "There is nothing more painful than my ego getting hurt. Ah.." she rubbed her eyes. "Sirius is an amazing duellist. I don't stand a chance. But... I can't back off and feed his ego. His ego is hurt a bit now because Remus and Lily said it'd be a tie. So... Wait. Why am I telling you this? Forget everything I said."
I laughed. She sure blabbers, like she said. "Sure," I nodded.
"Not everything. I mean... Just remember the first line," she raised her eyebrows. She's got these beautiful big dark eyes.
"The first line?" I chuckled. "What is it? Yeah. 'There is nothing more painful than my ego getting hurt'. I'll remember that and forget the rest." Ego? You are right.
"Good," she smiled. What a beautiful smileshe has.
"Are you going to duel in this?" I said pointing at her dress.
"I can't even walk properly in this," she laughed.
She was right. Though she looks beautiful in this, I noticed that she felt a bit uncomfortable.
"No. I have to change," she sighed. "By the way. Are you sure you wanna go with us? Aren't you tired or..."
"I should go," I said with a cocky grin. "Like Black mentioned, it's too tempting. And from that discussion back there... Everyone were sure that he'd win and only two said that it would be a tie. I just want to see how it goes. Alice was uncertain too. She never is. I just don't want to miss how this goes."
"So, you want to see how good or bad I am. Ah, this is going to be tooooo embarrassing for me. I don't think you should come," she bit her lip.
I couldn't stop chuckling. "It's not about how good or bad you are. The thing is, I love duels. And I wouldn't mind if you lose. People win and lose all the time. I just hope you don't get hurt."
"Well, if I get hurt, you'd just patch me up with a swish and a flick, right?" She said waving her arm.
I smiled and nodded. "Right." I will patch you up real good. Like I did before. "Would you come with me for a moment?" I asked her. I need to give her something I've been waiting to give for hours.
She nodded and followed me into the house.
I walked over to the place where I kept it. A bouquet. I was about to give it to her.
"Jacob—"
"What? It's Jacob now?" I raised my eyebrows.
"Ken," she chuckled. "You didn't have to..." She stopped, raised her eyebrows and laughed when she looked at it.
"You were saying?" I asked.
"It's a chocolate bouquet!" She beamed.
"You like it?" I asked nervously.
"Like it? I love it! Wait. Who...who told you—"
"That you'd kill for chocolates?" I chuckled.
She nodded laughing.
"You told me you don't like the smell of flowers. So... Umm.. I asked Lily what you like and she told me you would kill someone for chocolates," I replied.
"You keep surprising me," she smiled. "So... Ken is okay?"
"Huh?"
"I mean... you don't have a problem with me calling you Ken?"
"Err... Yeah. I'm okay," I shrugged.
"Kitty!" James came over to us. "Here you are!"
"What is it?" She asked.
"Mum's looking for you."
"Oh," she looked at me.
"Go on, I'll wait," I smiled.
"Thanks. I'll be back soon," she smiled and walked away.

After the guests were all gone, she quickly changed back into her comfortable extra large t-shirt and combat trousers. I don't really understand her fashion sense. It's amusing. Not most women feel comfortable and at home, and flaunt in over sized t-shirts and combat trousers. Women I've seen, dress too modest or classy or flashy. She is different. My lips curled up when I saw her talk animatedly to her brother and his friend.

Katherine Potter. Actually, I want to see you in action. I've seen you punching a mad pureblood. I've seen you hurt. I want to see how you fight. How you would keep your word. Though you aren't confident, you want to do this. Why? Is it about the ego? I don't understand. There is something different about you. Alice accidentally told me that you are a seer. Do I find you interesting because of that? No. She just told me about it yesterday.

The first time I actually saw you, you were unconscious, covered in blood and soot, broken bones and skull. I was about to go home when Lily brought you in. Healer Tonks and others were with some other patients in the emergency. So I had to treat you.

But the second time I saw you, I knew you were an interesting person. You were brave. Though it was reckless, hitting a lunatic like him was brave. You just shut him up. And above all you taunted him. Who would do that? And then you looked straight into my eyes and smiled. The anger in your eyes turned to a warm smile in seconds, though... though you were bleeding. I saw the cloak drenched in blood.

Then I saw you a couple of times at Mungo's. You met with Tonks every time and then calmly visited the wards of the people who were injured during the death eater attacks. You just looked at everyone, with pained eyes and sometimes tears threatened to escape but you never let them. You talked to yourself.

Once, I saw you with your friend in a pub. You were painting and he was playing the piano. You are an amazing artist. I was totally surprised.

The next time I saw you, we talked for the first time. You were in quite a mess. Though you were hurt so bad, you were worried about your friend and the injured. You threatened me. Told me that I wouldn't pee if there is something wrong with what I said.
You called me Ken because I looked like a Ken doll. Who would call a stranger that? How could you not notice my healer robes then? But then, you asked me to heal you quickly so you could go back and save someone. You promised that you would come back to get healed properly. What kind of a request was that? Every time I think about it, I can't help but laugh. Anyway, you came back to me. Unconscious. I did everything I could. It was strange then...your physiology. I told you about it and you mistook it for blood purity, for a moment. You were pretty embarrassed and shy when you woke up and realized someone took your shirt off. I noticed you pulling the covers up. It was amusing to look at your shy face. It was cute. Because hours ago you were screaming and threatening and then you were shy.
I told you not to leave the ward but I think you aren't good at following things. I was quite scared when I came back to the ward with Lily and found the bed empty.
I was confused when I saw the Prophet the next day. I didn't believe it. Because I know what happened. But then I thought maybe you were in a relation with Black.
Then, a neighbor told me a funny story of how someone pranked and gave Rita Skeeter a really hard time at her home and office. Later, Alice and Frank retold the story. I realized from our conversation the it was you. I asked Alice if the relationship between you and Black was true. She told me it was trash and you were single.
Then I thought I should give it a try. I thought I should get to know you. I found you... different. Different from other women I've seen. I wanted to talk to you. I tried. But, I could not.

Maybe I did not have the courage...to get closer to another woman after I lost the love of my life. I did not let anyone either. But then I thought. There's a war going on. Who knows what happens next? I might or might not get another opportunity. Amelia would want me to move on and have a happy life. She was also different. I know it's wrong to see someone I loved in you or compare them with you. But... I don't know what to do. Since the day I lost her, all I did was, wake up, eat, go to work, go back home, eat and go to bed. Politely declined or rejected dates or women.
When I saw you, I thought it was time to go back to my normal self. You did not drool over me or stare at me like others did. I decided I should give a try. Just one last time.

But you stopped visiting Mungo's. I did not know what to do. I waited.

Then we met again at the park. And you were totally not yourself that day. You told me as a matter of factly that you just missed a kiss from the Dementor. You just confused me. Then I asked you out. After years, I asked someone out. Someone who was different. Someone who would smile even when in pain. I was nervous. I didn't even think what I would do if you declined. I was never rejected before. But for the first time, I was anxious that you might reject, because you are from a different place with different culture and I was a stranger to you.
You agreed and my heart leapt.

I never let anyone other than my family call me by nick names. Ken. Ken. Why didn't I snap at you when you called me Ken every time? Honestly, I guess I always lost to your smile and eyes. Sometimes your sass might be annoying. But, it is kind of good annoyance.

"Back to Earth!" Alice giggled, tapping on my shoulder, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Sod off," I said.
"You're staring at her," she whispered in my ear.
"Wha... What? I'm not!"
"Whatever," she shrugged.
"Uh... Jacob?" Katherine walked over to me. "Umm... Do you... Do you wanna side along apparate with Remus and I?" She asked nervously.
"What?" I raised my eyebrows.
"I... I'm a bit drunk. So..." She said nervously. "My Ds won't be perfect. I don't apparate when I'm drunk."
I laughed. My Ds? "Oh... No...no problem."

And we did. Remus, Katherine and I apparated to the Potter's Manor.

*Third person's POV*

Fleamont and Euphemia decided to stay at Stinchcombe as they were too tired. So the others- the Prewetts, the Longbottoms, the Dearborns, Marlene, Benjy and Dorcas, who wanted to enjoy the duel, apparated to the manor along with the Marauders, Kitty and Lily.

Sirius chose the open spot near the small pond for the duel. The spectators stood quite a distance from both the duellers, few chose brooms and few chose top of the trees for a better view.

Sirius and Kitty stood a few feet apart, facing each other.
Remus stood between them. "Alright then," he looked at them. "Rule one. No unforgivable curses."
"Yes sir!" They both yelled.
"Rule two," Remus continued. "No blood shed."
"Okaayy!" Sirius waved his hand impatiently. "Let us start!"
Kitty was totally nervous but she did a great job in putting a straight face.
"Scared, Potter?" Sirius smirked.
She scoffed. "You wish."
"Begin on the count of three. Follow the duelling rules," Remus said as he got onto his broom. "One," he said as he flew into the air.
Sirius and Kitty bowed each other.
"Two," Remus said circling above them.
They both raised their wands in the combative position.
"Don't worry," Sirius said with a cocky grin. "I'll go easy on you."
Kitty rolled her eyes. "You might regret later."
"Three!" Remus shouted.
They both stared at each other, wands at ready, waiting for the other one to attack first.
It went on for few moments.
"Oh, come on!" James groaned from above. "Are you planning on keeping staring at each other all night?!"
The others joined him and murmurs filled the night air.
Sirius rolled his eyes and waved his wand lazily, sending a hex towards her.
"Protego," she flicked her wand and easily deflected the hex.
Sirius tilted his head. "Good," he said with a cocky grin
Kitty rolled her eyes. "Densaugeo!" She flicked her wand.
Sirius lazily deflected it. "Seriously?" He scoffed as he sent another hex towards her.
She deflected it.
"It's boring!" James groaned.
"Looks like... warm up," Lily commented.
"I hope it is," James sighed. "Looks like she is... calculating," he said looking at Kitty.
"She is," Lily nodded smiling.
Though Kitty duelled few death eaters, she always partnered with someone as a backup. And it was always Remus and she always chose defence and Remus took the offence. So, no one had a chance to see how she actually duels, except Remus.
"Calculative... Yes... But her only disadvantage is..." Remus turned to James and Lily. "Padfoot is brilliant at non verbal spells and she is not," he sighed.
"True though," Lily nodded.
The dark night was filled with colourful flashes and everyone watched the duel with great interest.
"If you are going easy on me, stop doing that. I'm getting bored," Kitty said as she deflected Sirius' hex. "Expelliarmus!"
Sirius deflected it.
"Colloshoo!"
"Protego! Expelliarmus!"
"Stupefy!"
"Flipendo!"
It was all like Duck... Roll... Deflect... Shoot... Crouch... Shield... Shoot... Roll... Duck...
Sirius stopped going easy on her. He realized that she's not easy and is good at duelling.
"Impedimenta!"
"Flipendo duo!"
"Protego!"
"Incarcerous!"
"Langlock!"
"Confundo!"
"Orbis!"
"Steleus!"
"Protego! Tarantallegra!"
"Tittillendo!"
"Mucus ad Nauseam!"
"Melofors!"
"Petrificus Totalus!"
"Everte Statum!"
"Locomotor Wibbly!"
Duck... Deflect... Shoot...
"Stupefy!"
"Protego!"
"Expelliarmus!"
"Protego! Expelliarmus!"
It went on for God knows how long.
They shot spells back and forth carefully without get hit by any.
"I should have listened to Lupin. I think I'm going to lose my money now," Gideon groaned.
Few hexes and curses hit the trees they were sitting on.
"She is quite good," Alice said looking at the duellers in awe.
Sirius and Kitty were crouched on the ground, exhausted and panting. They were staring at each other, for the next attack.
Sirius never expected her to be this good. His eyes fell on something he wanted. Time for his last plan. He raised his wand.
Kitty waited for the on coming hex.
But Sirius pointed his wand at the small pond behind her, and did a complicated wand movement and muttered, "Fluctus." The water rose.
There were collective gasps and "Wwwooaahhh!"
Kitty froze on the spot as she faced one of her fears. There was a great wave in front of her.
Sirius smirked. He didn't waste a second. "Stupefy!"
Kitty heard him and saw a flash of red from the corner of her eye. The great wave was over her. Her reflexes were quick. She raised both her hands. The palm of her free hand facing towards the on coming spell as trying to stop it with her bare hand. And her wand towards the wave. "Protego! Glacius!" She conjured a shield with her bare hand and with her wand pointed at the wave, she froze it.
Sirius' eyes widened as his spell hit her shield and deflected back straight at him with doubled speed. He ducked in time to escape the hit.
Gasps and cheers filled the air.
Kitty quickly waved her wand. "Fumos," she whispered desperately. "Mávros Kapnós!" Black smoke emitted from the tip of her wand and swirled around. In seconds, they were all engulfed in dense black smoke. Nothing could be seen.
"Smokescreen spell," everyone muttered in unison.
"What is happening?" Peter asked confused.
"I'd like to know too," Remus frowned trying to figure out.
"That's not smokescreen spell," Frank and Benjy coughed.
"This turned out interesting," Jacob said amused as he leaned forward trying to see anything his eye could catch.
Everything happened so quickly.
Sirius strained his eyes and ears. "What are you trying to do, Pryde?" He muttered under his breath tightening his grip on his wand, quickly getting up to his feet.
"The smoke would only last for seconds if Sirius tries to clear it up," Lily mumbled.
Sirius waved his wand to clear up the smoke but it grew thicker and thicker. He used bubble head charm to save himself from the smoke that was suffocating him. Suddenly, he heard footsteps running towards him. He flicked his wand quickly, sending a stunning spell. But it did not hit anyone. He kept sending spells but none of them hit anyone.
"Where are you, Pryde?" He said through gritted teeth. He was annoyed. And above all, the smoke was making it harder for him to concentrate. Suddenly the smoke before him started to disappear. He lifted off the bubble head charm. He heard footsteps on his right and turned right. He was about to send a stunning spell but his dog nose caught the whiff of her scent behind him. He quickly turned.
"Stupefy!"
"Stupefy!"
Two jets of red lights shot out of their wands.
Everything happened so fast that it threw the audience in a total confusion as they heard loud thud.
"Is it... Is it over?" Marlene climbed down the tree she was sitting on. She was hoping Kitty would get hit.
The smoke was slowly disappearing.
"Someone is down," Gideon mumbled. "But..." He trailed off climbing down his tree.
"Who is it?" Fabian finished for him.
James, Lily, Remus and Peter flew closer to the ground. They couldn't see anything either.
Everyone moved slowly to where the duelling took place moments ago.
"Padfoot?!" James and Peter called.
"Kitty!" Remus and Lily called.
"Is he down?" James asked startled.
Jacob quickly waved his wand and cleared the smoke.
"Damn it, Lupin," Dorcas muttered.

"Should have listened to you," Benjy groaned.

Remus smirked. "I told you it would be a tie."
Sirius and Kitty were lying on the ground, unconscious, ten feet apart.
The two stunning spells hit each other squarely on their chests. Their eyes widened in surprise as they both were lifted off their feet and hit the ground at once in loud thud.
Remus and Jacob quickly ran over to Kitty, and James, Lily and the rest to Sirius.
Remus revived Kitty and James revived Sirius.
They both snapped their eyes at once.
"I lost," Kitty whined.
"I... lost?" Sirius asked bewildered.
Everyone burst out laughing at once.
"We lost our money!" few groaned.
Jacob helped Kitty to her feet. "That. was. awesome!" he grinned.
Kitty looked confused. She turned to Sirius and their eyes met.
"How did you do that?!"
"How did you do that?!"
They both asked each other at the same time.
"That was smokescreen spell," Peter said.
"No, it wasn't," Fabian said.
Kitty and Sirius were staring at each other.
"Did I stun you?" She asked surprised at herself.
Sirius groaned. "I hate to admit. But...yes. Tell me how you did it?"
"You tell me first. It was all perfect. How did you know?"
Sirius pointed at his nose.
"Ah! Shite!" Kitty muttered. "I didn't think about that."
"Now you," Sirius walked over to her.
"Okay!" James interrupted. "We are here!" he waved his hands. "What the hell is going on?!"
Kitty shrugged. "Well, it's a spell I've been practicing lately."
"The smoke spell?"
"No," Sirius replied. "That was just one of the distractions."
"One of the?!"
"I see you are impressed," Kitty looked at Sirius with her teasing grin.
"Stop beating around the bush!" James growled.
"Fine," Kitty sighed. She tapped on the ground with her wand, made a complicated wand movement and muttered, "Nise no ashioto."
They all heard footsteps, wherever her wand was waved. She kept muttering the spell and moving her wand around them.
"Bloody hell!" They all said in unison.
"What kind of a spell is that?" Alice asked in awe.
Kitty smiled. "Incredible, isn't it? Nise no ashioto. It's a Japanese spell which means fake footsteps."
"Wow! Do you know Japanese?!" Dorcas asked surprised.
"Nah!" Kitty chuckled. "I just happen to know a couple of useful spells in different languages."
"And the smoke spell?" Fabian asked.
"Yeah. It wasn't the smokescreen spell, was it?" Jacob asked.
"Ah! It was Greek. It's different from the regular smokescreen spell. Bubble head charm wouldn't help you see through it," she replied.
"Then how did you see?"
"Oh, I don't know how it works. The spell just means 'black smoke' but only the caster could see through it."
"Anyway, thanks to you, I've won some money," Remus patted on her shoulder.
"Me too," Lily smirked.
"Me three," Peter squeaked.
"You bet against me?" Kitty smiled at Jacob, her eyebrows raised.
"No! Why would I do that? I... I thought you'd win," he chuckled nervously scratching the back of his head.
"And he lost 5 galleons," Lily laughed.
Kitty looked at him and made a puppy face and he chuckled.
"I see something going on here," Dorcas smirked. "And it's our cue to leave! Give them some time."
"Wha...what," Kitty stammered.
Sirius gagged and Kitty shot a glare at him.
"Anyway, where did you learn these spells?" Frank asked Kitty.
"I...I saw them in an ancient spell book long ago."

"Black?" Kitty called as they were walking back to their rooms.
He turned to her.
"Can I talk to you for a moment?" She asked.
"I'll be leaving then. Goodnight," Remus waved his hand and walked away leaving them both.
"What is it, Pryde?" Sirius asked in a drawling voice. "I'm tired and I have to go to work tomorrow."
"Why?"
Sirius looked at her as if she grew another head. "Because' I'm an auror trainee that's why!"
"I'm talking about your little stunt during duelling."
"Stunt?"
"If you're trying to act smart, you better stop. You know what my fears are. And you still did that?!"
He scoffed. "It was a duel. Did you really expect me to be too good to you? Or did you forget asking me to not go easy on you because I might regret it later?"
She looked at him in disbelief. "So you're telling me that you did that on purpose? What if... What if I hadn't frozen it and got drowned?"
"Drown?" He laughed. "Why would I let you drown?"
Kitty raised her eyebrows.
"I mean... It was a rule. No... death inducing...spells..." he said hastily.
Kitty kept staring at him in disbelief. There were loads of things she wanted to say. But all she did was keep staring at him in disbelief.
"Anyway," Sirius continued. "You did not drown. You did well."
Kitty simply shook her head.
"And," Sirius paused.
"What?"
"You seem close to Dearborn."
She nodded. "So?"
"What were you talking about earlier?"
"Why should I tell you?"
"Are you...are you really planning on going out with him?"
"It's just a tea!" She groaned.
"That's the first step of 'going out'."
"Why do you even care?"
He scoffed. "Do I look like I care? It's your life. I was just curious about..."
"About?"
"Well, the bloke you said you've been in love with. Or...is it even a bloke?"
She rolled her eyes. "It is."
He stared into her eyes. "Who is it? Prongs told me that he sort of turned you down."
Kitty wanted to scream 'YOU!'. But she couldn't. She wouldn't. "Some idiot," she shrugged. "Goodnight," she said and walked past him.
"Pryde?" Sirius called in his deep voice.
She stopped in her tracks and turned to him. She wanted to punch him on the face for everything.
"Think about going out with Dearborn again. You say it's just a tea. But I don't think it would be just a tea for him. From what I've seen and heard, he is interested in you. And you... You aren't a regular person. You could risk exposing yourself if you—"
"If he is interested in me, then maybe I should give it a shot. Now that I have a new life here, I should start over. I can't be single forever. Besides, he seems to be a really nice person and... And I might actually need a nice person in my life. And about exposing myself... I can handle things. Thanks for your concern."
Sirius stared at her. He didn't know why. But he felt dejected.
"If that's it, I'll be leaving. I'm tired," she said and walked away as he stared at her. He stood there until she walked into the room a slammed the door shut.
"Why am I feeling this way? Your attitude is bothering me. Why would you show your stupid attitude now? And why do I feel like you aren't being honest with yourself," he muttered under his breath. "How can you not remember things you've done in your sleep? How can you go out with someone who doesn't know anything about you? Why can't I bring up the courage to tell you what happened that night? Who is the idiot that turned you down? Why do I feel like it is me?" He sighed.

Kitty walked into her room and slammed the door shut.
She leaned on the door and closed her eyes.
"Why don't you stop pounding?" She clutched her chest. "Why are you doing this, Sirius? Are you playing? Why do you care what I do? Are you really concerned about me getting exposed or do you hate me going out with other guys? How stupid of me to think about the later one. Why do you sound like you are not telling me something. Or... is it like James said? That it's bugging you because I never fell for you? Aaarrgggggghhh!" She pulled her hair. "Stop thinking. Stop thinking. Go with the flow. He doesn't like you. Jacob kind of likes you. Go to bed. Go to bed."
She tried to push away all thoughts. She changed into pajamas and hit the bed.

AN: I'm really really sorry for the late update. I've been travelling and there's a lot going on in my mind and couldn't update.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
This story is a sequel to "The Marauders and the Time Travelling Potterhead".
So, if you haven't read it yet, I suggest you to read it first so you could understand this better.
