Stealing A Kiss

Chapter Six

A Letter And An Arguement

A/N: PLEASE REVIEW! Okay, well here is chapter six. Anyways, this is the last chapter that I wrote so far, so chapter seven will take some time, since I still have another fanfic to write. If you wannt check it out go to to this link: walk down the stairs to the Common Room where I see some Gryffindors, none that I recognized, but I just walk to the owerly. It's pretty cold since it's the starting of November. It's been about 2 months that I've been pretending to be Sirius's girlfriend. I seriously think its wrong now and there's now use since Nicholas hasn't been paying attention to me lately. But somehowI don't want to fake-break-up with Sirius. It must be this stupid crush feeling on him. I walk up the cold, hard stone steps as I step up to thee owerly and see no one, but lots of owls flying around. I find my owl and walk over to it, I called him "Mahino" for some reason I really, really like that name, I made it up myself. Mahino is a snowy owl, white as snow. He has a letter to give me, I unattached the letter of his leg and open and read it, sadly it's from my father.

Dear Joanne,

It very good news that we have moved to a new house, we have especially great neighbors and I know them from the ministry of magic. When you come back for Christmas Break we are going to invite them to celebrate. It is a shame that you may not go, because of yourlack of interest of the other celebrations we had over the years. But please do come, I know it would make everyone very disappointed if you do not come, it's better than crying in your room all break, like how you usually go. Lily has never gave me trouble about these situations. Why don't you be like her more. Anyways Myra has picked out a dress for you and Lily.

I'll see you soon.

Robert Hastings.

"That's because I don't want to be Lily." I sighed as I threw the paper away. God, I hate him. He's always saying, "Be more like Lily." or "Why can't you do something like Lily." Lily isn't even blood with him and he's acting like she's his little princess, like a daughter he never had. I hate him so much! After mom died, it's seems like he doesn't care about me or her. Because if him, I never really learned to love or be loved, because of him I felt like the only family I had we're my friends, including Lily.

" How are you holding up?" Lily asked me as I came back. She probably already read the letter. I groaned as I landed heavily on my bed.

"I guess that's a no." She chuckled. "Well youguessed right." I sighed.

"Okay, let's just enjoy our Saturday, because that's what I need after looking at that God forsaken letter." I spoke, as I got up and dragged Lily with me.

" Nooo." She whined.

"Come on, James will be down there!" I told her, she ran right past me, out the door, as I heard her yell from downstairs.

"YOU LIAR!" I laughed, as I closed the door and headed down to a disappointed Lily. "At least I got you down here, geez." I said, as she punched me on the shoulder.

"I hate you." She laughed

"I can't wait until I move out and get my own damn life without him in it! I just want to be myself for a while after graduation!" I exclaimed as I landed on the comfy couch in the common room.

"You know he isn't so bad." She said. I looked at her in shock. How could he manipulate her into thinking that!

"Well he does adore you." I jeered, as boys came down the stairs form their dorm. It was James and Sirius. Remus was probably awake and in the library. My eyes landed on Sirius. He gave me a wink, I tried not to blush. I mean after that wonderful night, I really should have kissed him.

"Lily, would you like to come with me for a sec?" James asked her, as she smiled and nodded. My eyes pondered them, as they walked out the portrait door. I picked up a book from the table. It read "Puzzles for the Mind" I laughed as I looked into it, it seemed interesting as I grabbed a quill and left Sirius hanging there.

"So . . . ermm . . uhh . . anything new?" He asked me, as I wondered what question number 6 was.

"How Many Bones Are There In The Human Skull?"

" Just trying to figure this question out." I gasped as I handed him the book. I watched him as his face deepened and his eyebrows quivered. I then found myself leaning in behind him, smelling him. Oh, he smells good! Why is he sweating?? Oh well, his sweat smells like perfume! I sniffed and closed my eyes in fantasy. I sighed as I opened my eyes slowly, as I opened it little, by little I found a figure right in front of my face! CRAP!!

"How can I help you?" He asked, mischievously. My eyes widened as I leaned back on the couch. I pretended to yawn as I stretched my arms up in the air.

"Nothing I just needed something to rest my head on, 'cause I'm so sleepy!!" I yawned, he seemed unconvinced.

"Okay then. Let's talk." He stated. I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Talk about what?" I asked, as I grabbed the book from his hands.

"Okay, how come you don't have a boyfriend?" He asked me. I frowned. I scratched my head, as I flipped my hair in excellence.

"Who says I don't have aboyfriend?" I asked, as I put my hands on my hips. He smirked at me; I tried not to smile whatsoever. "Well, if you had a boyfriend, I wouldn't have to be pretending to be yours." He sneered. I pouted. He then got up and walked out the Common Room Door, I followed.

"Hey, it's not my fault that I don't have a boyfriend!" I complained. He kept on walking making it hard for me to catch up.

"See? You girls are so hot-headed; no wonder no guys are interested. Plus all you girls think about is marriage and kids! Oh and boys!! You never stop saying "how cute" or "how ugly" we are!!" He laughed. I opened my mouth in offense.

"Maybe you're just jealous because no girl would ever like you!" I stated, as I stood in front of him, stopping him from walking the One Marathon Race. Just then a group of 6th year girls walked by, totally checking out Sirius. Making cat calls and whispering "Hot!" or "Cute!" I gagged, as he smiled.

"What did you just say again?" He proved, as he winked at the girls! HEY! I thought he was supposed to be doing that to me, you know since I'm his "girlfriend". I rolled my eyes as I walked back to the Common Room.

"Maybe you're just jealous that you can't have me?" He wondered out loud, as I stopped in my tracks, I turned around and smirked.

"That, coming from a boy who wanted to kiss me last night. Yeah, I'm so jealous." I said, as I started to walk back. He followed.

"I didn't want to kiss you!" He scoffed as he crossed his arms to his chest. I laughed.

"Joanne, KISS ME!" I mimicked as I opened my arms. He glared at me.

" I was just trying to make you feel more comfortable. . ." He pondered. I sighed.

"Anyways . . . Would you like to come to the Potter Mansion with me, for Christmas break?" He asked, as he smiled brightly like a little child. I patted his shoulder.

"Sorry, but I'm forced to attend this stupid celebration for Christmas Break." I said.

"Mate, what happened? I thought you were going to tell her how you feel or something emotional like that to her?!?" Remus asked, as he laid his eyes off the book. We were all in the boys dorm, as we all sat on our beds.

"Yeah, but you ended up making a total fool out of yourself." Prongs said, as he started to jump on your bed.

" I mean it's just Joanne, she's not one of those kinds of girls who make fun of those kinds of feelings, form what I heard she hasn't had any when she was a child and is longing for "your feeling"." Prongs said.

"What?" I asked, totally clueless.

"He means, love." Remus said. Prongs shook his head and barked with laughter.

" NO! I mean "feeling" you know "bed-room feeling." she needs some of that!" Prongs said. I chuckled a little, as Moony threw a pillow at Prongs.

"Joanne is a lady, not a whore!!"He shouted as he studied his book again. "Okay, okay, so what did she say? Why would you even ask that question, "Why don't you have a boyfriend?" I mean that's totally mean." Moony said, as he settled his book beside him.

"I don't know it was the first thing that popped in my head . . ." I shrugged.
