Chapter 6: The Flight of Elizabeth

"You can't make me stay here any longer." Elizabeth yelled at her father.

"I can make you do what I want." He yelled back.

"Bullshit." She spat, "I turned 17 yesterday. You obviously forgot." She turned her back to him and returned to haphazardly throwing stuff in her trunk

"You're not going anywhere." He said pulling out his wand.

"Fuck you. That's right hide behind that piece of wood." He slapped her but she didn't flinch; the sting began to travel through her face. She turned away from him to finish throwing things into her trunk but her father grabbed her arm.

"You aren't going to bring us any more shame." He yelled. Elizabeth struggled in his grasp, "You will do as I say."

"No." She said still trying to free herself from his grasp. He squeezed her arm harder before tossing her aside; her hip collided into the pointy corner of her desk. She gasped in pain, he smiled triumphantly before he left, slamming her door behind him.

"Crazy, mother fucker." Elizabeth said stuffing her wand into her pocket after she shrunk her trunk to pocket size. She threw open her window, climbing down the flower terrace. She ran and ran until she could no longer see the manor. Elizabeth was on the verge of tears and dehydration when she signaled for the Knight Bus. Elizabeth jumped back when the Bus appeared out of nowhere; she climbed aboard.

"Where you off to?" The conductor asked her.

"Uh…" Elizabeth pulled out a piece of parchment, "192 Ford in London." She told him.

"Got that Earl?"

"Yep." Earl responded and Elizabeth fell to the floor when he floored it.

"Five sickles for a bed or seven for plus a toothbrush and hot chocolate." Elizabeth dug through her pockets.

"I guess just the bed." She said dropping the coins in his hand and he pointed to a bed next to her. Elizabeth plopped down onto the bed with a relaxing sigh.

The Knight bus took off in the night and Elizabeth stood before a much prettier apartment building then she expected. She checked the parchment in her pocket once more before she went inside. She took the elevator to the fifth floor then she went over to apartment D; she knocked gently.

"Hey." She said biting her lip when the door opened. Sirius stood before her, bare chest in a pair of Levis, "I need a place to stay."

"Are you alright?" He asked pulling her inside.

"I'm fine."

"Then what's this?" He asked ripping her arm up to get a better look at the bruises on her upper arm. Her eyes darted away from him.

"Are you hungry?" Sirius asked tenderly. She nodded and he led her to the kitchen.

"It's a lovely flat."

"You can stay forever." Sirius rummaged through his frigerator.

"Sirius, babe." A lustful voice said as she stepped into the kitchen in only a red towel, "Oh." Elizabeth's jaw dropped.

"I'm so…I'm…I'll go." Elizabeth stuttered playing with the white gold pendent around her neck.

"Who was that?" The girl's voice screeched when Elizabeth left the kitchen.

"Stuff it." Sirius said running from the kitchen, "Elizabeth." Sirius gently grabbed her hand just as she got to the door.

"I didn't know or I wouldn't have come." She said quietly, "I'll be…uh…find somewhere…"

"You'll go nowhere." Sirius said.

"But…" The girl once in a red towel bustled into the living room fully dressed.

"She's obviously leaving." Sirius said opening the door for her.

"Sorry about that." Elizabeth said as Sirius led her back in.

"Naw, she was bugging me." Sirius said, "You look tired." He scooped her up taking her his bedroom. He plopped her onto his bed, he rummaged through his drawers, "Your favorite." He tossed her a set of his sapphire pajamas. She pulled of her shirt and shed her jeans.

"Dear God." He cried, "What happened to you?" She followed her gaze to her hipbone where a large black and blue bruise had formed. Sirius rubbed his thumb over her bruise and hipbone.

"It was the last straw." Elizabeth said taking his hand, "I had to leave."

"You lasted longer then me." Elizabeth's eyes met his; his lips came crashing into hers.

Elizabeth was asleep, while Sirius lay awake next to her. He looked at her, the pendent he gave her a little over a year ago lay loosely against her bare breasts. This wasn't the first time; he could never forget the first time. They still haven't told anyone about their late night rendezvous and they didn't end it that first night. Somehow, when they were both single, they found their way to each other's beds. Sirius loved when they were together; it felt different, being with her then other girls, and he always felt anger boil in him when another guy got to hold her and kiss her. He didn't know why he felt like he did or what he was feeling, he just cherished the nights they shared together. He knew he had a soft spot for Elizabeth and he probably always will but how big that spot is, he had no idea. Sirius rolled to his side, pulling Elizabeth close to him and falling back asleep.

Elizabeth woke up alone and confused, for a moment she forgot where she was. She tossed aside Sirius's clothes; found her shirt and the pajama bottoms from last night. Sirius was sitting in his kitchen babying a cup of coffee when Elizabeth joined him. Sirius smiled when he saw her come in, she never wore his clothes after one of their nights.

"Coffee?" Sirius asked, Elizabeth scrunched her face. Sirius let out a bark like laugh, "Chocolate milk?" She nodded, "You're such a kid." He said as he made her chocolate milk, "Prongs wants us to come over for dinner tonight."

"Sounds good."

"He said something about Evans coming over." Sirius said and Elizabeth cocked an eyebrow, "Yeah, I guess she wants to talk about head duties."

"Then why are we going?"

"Support, I suppose. You know how James gets when he's around her." Sirius laughed, "So can you be ready in like ten minutes, I want to go a little early."

Elizabeth snorted, "A little?" She stuck her glass in the sink, "You're living with a girl now, life takes longer then ten minutes but you can go on ahead. I have few things that I have to take care of first."

"You don't want me to go with you?" He asked.

"I have to do it alone." Sirius kissed her forehead before he apparated out.

Elizabeth walked through the threshold from the Leaky Cauldron to Diagon Alley. She walked down the street to the white marble building of Gringotts Bank. Goblins bustled around her as she made her way to the counter.

"I need to make a withdrawal from vault 102." She told the Goblin behind the counter.

"Do you have…" Elizabeth laid her bronze key on white marble counter. The Goblin eyed her before signaled for another Goblin to lead her to the vault.

The bag in Elizabeth's hand bulged from its contents and she wore a triumphant smile. Her walk had a smug hop in it as she walked back through the main floor of Gringotts. Her stupid family she thought as she dropped her key into the trash can outside of the bank.

The Potter's house was just as she remembered from six years ago; after dropping her bag at Sirius's apartment Elizabeth apparated to James's house. The family portraits that hung on the walls of the round room memorized Elizabeth.

"I thought I heard someone apparate in." A women's voice said from behind Elizabeth, startling her.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Potter, I should have knocked." Elizabeth said.

"Don't be silly my dear." Mrs. Potter said, "Now, unless you've dyed your hair I do not believe that you are Lily Evans."

Elizabeth chuckled, "No, I'm not. Actually, I'm Elizabeth Dolohov."

"Elizabeth?" Mrs. Potter asked in disbelief. Elizabeth nodded, "Oh my dear, it's been so long." Mrs. Potter pulled her into a hug, "James never said you were coming." Mrs. Potter said leading her out of the room.

"I don't think he knew." Elizabeth said letting Mrs. Potter lead her down the hall.

"Nor did he say how beautiful you've gotten."

"He's too smitten with Evans to even notice." Elizabeth said as Mrs. Potter led her into the kitchen.

"Look who I found." Mrs. Potter said to the three men in her kitchen.

"Elizabeth." James cried before pulling her into a hug.

"It's good to see you again." Mr. Potter said after James let her go.

"Cake is done." Mrs. Potter said, pulling out a large chocolate cake from her oven.

"How I've missed that cake." Elizabeth said eyeing the cake.

"Prongs, you better get dressed; I'm sure Evans will be here soon." Sirius said leaning against the counter.

"I am dressed." James said looking down at what he was wearing, "You're right though I look like an idiot." James said distressed before he hurried out of the kitchen. Mrs. Potter lightly hit Sirius in the shoulder.

"You know he's been changing all morning." She told him.

"I was kidding." Sirius said holding his hand up in defense, "Elizabeth you better go help him." She nodded.

Elizabeth gently knocked on James's bedroom door. He pulled it opened wearing a pair of boxers with a flush-frustrated face.

"Let me help." She told him and stepped into his room. Clothes covered every inch of his room, closet was completely empty and his clothes hung out of his drawers. Elizabeth began to sift through the clothes on his floor while James collapsed onto his bed with a long sigh.

"How are you doing?" James asked her after a few minutes of silence, "Sirius told me."

"I'm better." Elizabeth said pulling a black button up shirt from the bottom of a pile of clothes.

"If you ever need anything, money, anything you can always come to me." James said after she tossed him the shirt, "I'll do anything for you."

"I'll be fine. I got what I needed." She told him while she threw clothes around his room until she found the dark jeans she was looking for. She tossed James the pants before she started her search for the next article of clothing.

"I'm glad you left. I don't have to worry about you all the time now." James said while she disappeared under this bed. Elizabeth gave him warm smile as she reappeared with a black stud belt and white on black converse.

"There you go, the perfect outfit." Elizabeth dropping the belt and shoes on his bed.

"You are gong to be fine, aren't you?" James said, grabbing her wrists when she let go of the shoes. Elizabeth looked into his eyes and nodded slowly, "You'll always be a little sister to me." Elizabeth climbed on the bed and hugged James. He held her tight and longer then she wanted him to.

"You better get changed." Elizabeth said, wiping her tears away before they fell down her cheek, "Lily will be here soon."

Elizabeth was halfway down the stairs when Lily and Sirius emerged from around the corner from the front door.

"Oh, I didn't know you were here, too." Lily said when she saw her coming down the stairs.

"Yeah, it wasn't planned." Elizabeth said. She glanced over at Sirius who gave her a stern look. Elizabeth swallowed her resentment towards Lily, "James will be just a minute." Sirius and Lily followed Elizabeth as she walked passed them.

"Why don't you wait in the living room?" Sirius said to Lily, motioning to the living room before continuing to follow Elizabeth, "You better be nice." Sirius told her before she pushed opened the kitchen door.

"Aren't I always?" Elizabeth said innocently and Sirius threw back his head in a bark like laughter.

"Be nice to Evans, for Prong's sake." Sirius said as they made their way into the kitchen.

"What's wrong with Lily?" Mr. Potter asked. He was sitting at the small breakfast table in the kitchen.

"You mean the stuck up bitch?" Elizabeth asked before she stuck her chocolate frosting finger in her mouth.

"What did I just tell you?" Sirius said sounding like a parent. Elizabeth shrugged.

"He asked." She said before turning back to Mr. Potter, "James is the best thing that could ever happen to her but of course she too much of bitch to even see that." She licked more chocolate frosting off her finger, "And I still don't know why James even still likes her."

"You still help him try to get her." Sirius said before sticking his finger in the chocolate frosting but Mrs. Potter smacked his finger away before he could get any, "Why does she get some?" Sirius cried out appalled.

"Because her parents didn't feed her." Mrs. Potter said handing Elizabeth the chocolate frosting covered spoon; Elizabeth stuck her tongue out at Sirius before taking the spoon.

"Neither did mine."

"I find that insulting." Mrs. Potter said and Sirius conceded, "Now dinner is about to be served, go get James and Lily." Elizabeth pushed passed Sirius out the door. James and Lily were sitting in the living room, in silence and on opposite ends of the couch. Elizabeth wanted to burst out laughing at how awkward they both looked but Sirius spoke before she could laugh at them.

"Dinner is done." Sirius said and the group followed them to the living room.

After dinner the four teenagers, talked in James's living room until Lily left because she was falling asleep and Elizabeth was already asleep. Sirius scooped up Elizabeth, taking her home.

Sirius's and Elizabeth's school trunks were stacked in his living room waiting for the duo to leave for the school train. Sirius took up a seat on the two trunks while he watched Elizabeth bustle from room to room-shoving stuff in her trunk.

"Done?" He asked as she finally walked out of the bedroom, bouncing her purse to readjust the stuff she shoved in there.

"Almost." She said, holding out a small bag to him.

"What's this?" He asked.

"The rent I owe you." She said taking his hand and putting the bag in it when he didn't take it.

"I'm not taking it." Sirius said shoving it back to her.

"Sirius, please."

"Where did you get this?" Sirius asked looking through bag.

"My half of the inheritance." She said with a smirk.

"Your parents gave…"

"No, they just forgot to take my key." She laughed.

"Well, it doesn't matter; I'm not taking it." He said, holding it out for her but she didn't take it so he dropped it at her feet.

"Why?"

"Because I wanted you here." Sirius said slinging an arm around her shoulders.

"You don't have to take care of me."

"But I always will." He kissed her forehead, "We better get going or we'll be late."

Elizabeth unwrapped the picture frame from the newspaper. She hadn't completely forgotten that they had taken this picture. It was the first night back and they all stood in front of Hogwarts; Sirius was in the middle with Remus and Peter on his left and Elizabeth and James on his right. They all had huge smiles and their arms around one another. The picture brought a smile to her face as she stared down at their happy faces. She gently placed the picture on the mantle, admiring it for a minute before going to check on her dinner in the oven.
