(A.N) Dear readers, I sort of imagined a slightly emotional two-shot featuring Sirius forbidden love for Lily, but I'm sorry. I just had this strange dawning realization that I should be much better in writing wacky P.O.V.s since all of my stories are yes, mostly P.O.V.s.
This chapter highlights Sirius POVs ONLY. Except for the last sentence. *insert smiley face here*
Please do leave reviews. Flames are unavoidable, but please, do cut me some slack. XOXO. And hopefully, two days from now, I'll be able to update. Plus, I love you all so much that I don't want to leave you gripping the edges of your seat in anticipation for what will happen next. (Humble, much?)
Hmm. Something's not right. I just can't put my finger on it. I mean, why would James just leave us here gaping like idiotic goldfishes when he knows we want to know every single detail? I think, no, I know he's not telling us something. And I'm not gonna stand here and wait.
Yes, against my better wishes (not!), I followed him, I think I actually ducked behind corridors and portraits to keep up with my "I'm-a-spy" charade. You see, I've happened to watch this cool movie, about a cool dude, I think his name was James Pond, or something. And of course, I used my new "spy" skills, which I got from watching the Pond movie about, I think, twenty eight times, in finding out what James is keeping from us, his best friends.
So, when I opened the Entrance doors (A/N: Sorry, don't know what they're called.) and at the same time, waved at a few of my fan club girls, I scanned the lake for Prongs…. and what the Merlin's beard ?!?!?
He's sitting beside my Lily, I mean, Lily, and Lily has this glassy look in her emerald- green eyes, which could only mean one thing – she's struck by the Potter Charm! And since I love her….I can't let that happen. Whoever said the quote, "If you really love her, set her free and if she comes back, she's yours" is dead wrong. Why wait? Why wait in the sidelines praying to whatever deity crossed your mind at the moment? When you could just run to where they are and break up their little scene?
And I did just that.
"Hey Lily-Flower, Prongs!"
Oh my bloody hell! Prongs has this "Run, run as fast as you can" look which could only account to one thing – I'm dead. But I've always believed in self-sacrificing. Whatever, that is, for my Lily's affections.
"Yes, Sirius?", James demanded.
"Nothing. It's just that I decided that after cleaning myself up, I should go…. (Sirius said while scanning the grounds for some plausible excuse)..wade my feet under the Black Lake."
"Can't you bloody do that without disturbing other people's lives?" James retorted. (Anyone within a one-mile radius could notice that his usual composed and cool voice is now beginning to be a few notches higher.)
"Uh..Actually, I was about to do exactly just that but this strange realization dawned upon me, I mean, since you're my best friend, my fellow Marauder, my blood brother, I reckon you should come with me?"
"Oh wow. That's the best and most ridiculous excuse for a lie I've heard in my entire life! Now, tell me, Sirius, what is it?!?"
"So, this is how this ends, huh? James Potter, I've been with you through thick and thin, I was your refuge, your ever-capable foundation, and this is how you repay me? I can see when I'm not wanted." And with a final toss of his beautiful mane, he rushed away from the scene of probably one of his most humiliating moments (especially with the fact that his Lily was there, quivering with laughter.)
But since, I am a spy, the Sirius Pond of the Wizarding World, I mean, why does the best super agent slash spy be named after James? Can anyone else see the injustice in this world?
Anyway, what I meant was, I just can't leave Lily in the clutches of my best friend who, admittedly, like me, has captivated many ladies, both young and old, with his infamous "Potter charm". So, I dodged behind the nearest, most insect-free bush, (Déjà vu.) and painstakingly listened to Prongs and Lily's conversation. Okay, so I eavesdropped. Can you sue a guy for his desire to protect his lady love?
"I'm sorry, Lily. You know Sirius has always been like that."
"Yeah, I know. I really admire him for his spontaneous-ness."
"Right, so you were saying? I mean, before we were so rudely interrupted?"
"Uhh."
"Lily?"
"Oh, James, please forgive me, I got to go. I promised Patrick Wood I'd help him with his…uhh, help him. So, see you later. Bye!" With those parting words that cruelly wounded James, she, just like the one before her, rushed away from her once comfortable afternoon with James.
Great! ,James snidely contemplated, As usual Sirius is always here to save the world. Yeah right.
Once Lily was out of his sight, he stormed towards the seventh year's dormitories to give Sirius a verbal beating he would never forget.
