--On with the story…--
"Look, you're a nice guy and everything but you're not my sort." Tara said, smiling politely. She turned to look out of the stone framed window, out over the top of the forest and up to the stars dotted in the sky.
"It's beautiful, isn't it?"
"It really is." Tara murmured as an owl flew silently overhead.
"So what is your type if I'm not it?" He gave her a grin that had had many a Hogwarts student melt.
"Umm, female." She admitted with a blush. She wasn't ashamed of being gay, but she was well aware of how some people reacted.
"Is that all?" Sirius actually laughed. "Why does it have to be about gender?"
"What do you mean?"
"If you'd have said you don't like me 'cause I'm a cocky little shit then I could understand. But if two people have a connection like we do, why does the gender have to matter?"
Tara opened her mouth to respond, but found she genuinely didn't have an answer. She'd never thought about things like that before; all the people she had been attracted to in the past had been female, so she had put two and two together to make four. The more she thought about it, the more it made sense. "It shouldn't matter."
"Exactly. So just for tonight, how about we forget about the gender thing, eh?"
Tara thought it over. She smirked. "Okay. But just for tonight."
