Disclaimer: Really, you can just ignore this. It's the same as all the other disclaimers…I just go on and on about how I don't own Harry Potter, (which I don't), so this is just for the hell of it…and my displeasure…this really is something I hate doing over and over, and I know, I can just say look at the other ones, but where's the fun in that? I just like to annoy myself sometimes…have no idea why…there's something wrong with me obviously…

Author Notes: I love Sirius…he is so in denial…but that's what makes him so adorable…and Harry too…but anyways, I don't think I have any important author notes, or at the moment I don't. Just, thanks for the reviews! Also, Alice is Scottish and has a slight accent, so that's why some of her words aren't spelled right and Midori is Japanese, so she'll sometimes speak in Japanese and the meanings at the end of the chapter...I have a thing for accents...anys, so sorry for not updating earlier...I was busy with finals, which means...I'm not a sophomore anymore...I'm a Jr! I'm so happy! (happy dance) Anyways, go on and read...

Destiny, Interrupted

Chapter Four

Dining with Informality

It didn't take long for them to get to the Great Hall. When they got there, most everyone stared at the new kid, who still was being dragged by James, which was probably why everyone was staring…

They all sat down at their spots at the Gryffindor table. Harry sat on James left and Sirius sat on James right. Across from them were Remus and Peter. The food was already out, so they all quickly piled their plates with food.

All their food was about half way done before there was a clanging sound from the Head Table. All eyes turned to see Dumbledore standing up with his wand that he just smacked against his cup. Dumbledore smiled. "Well everyone, I have an announcement before everyone leaves. We have a new student gracing the halls of Hogwarts. He's name is Harry Granger and is now a Gryffindor. Stand up my boy and let yourself be known."

Harry was practically hiding under the table by the time Dumbledore finished his little speech. He personally thought he's speech was a little over board and thought that hiding under the table was a good idea…which it was, right up till Sirius and James decided that they would take the decision out of his hands, because when he was quite comfy under the table, two pairs of hands grab his arms and pulled him up from his sanctuary and into the open and everyone stares.

Sirius and James grinned at each other over the top of Harry's head. Sirius turned his gaze to Peter and winked, making Peter smile slyly and start to clap his hands. Soon the whole Great Hall was echoing with clapping and Harry's face was getting redder and redder by each passing second. Not quite soon enough, the clapping stopped and Harry was let go to be able to sit back in his seat, which he did in recorded time. His face was still flushed as Sirius and James on either side of him. James patted him on the back and said, "You're such a good sport." Harry turned his head and glared daggers at him.

"You blush a lovely shade of red." Sirius complimented and got the daggered filled glare next. "Aw, don't be that way…"

When Sirius went to pat his head, Harry muttered darkly. "If you pat me on the head, I can promise you that this fork will not be going into my food again…"

Sirius stopped, his hand hovering a few inches above Harry's head and a fork pointed dangerously close to his stomach. "You really don't like being the center of attention, do you?"

"No." he muttered and turned back to his food and 'calmly' started to eat again.

James and Sirius looked at each other over Harry's head. James raised his eyebrow and Sirius rolled his eyes. He didn't know why Harry didn't like having attention.

'Maybe because everyone isn't an attention loving hog?' Fate said within Sirius' head.

'Oh, will you shut up? I didn't ask for your opinion.'

'You didn't ask, but you shall always receive.' Fate replied.

Sirius mentally rolled his eyes and mentally muttered about no private thoughts as he sought to ignore Fate and pay attention to his friends. It seemed that all of them had finished their dinners and it also seemed like he had a bit more eating to do, so he started to eat and never even once stopped for a breath or paid attention till all his food was gone and he felt a pair of eyes on him. He looked up to see Harry staring at him in something akin to horror. "What?" Sirius asked around his last mouthful of food and swallowed.

Harry looked at him in disgust. "That was disgusting…did you even bother to chew your food before you swallowed?"

Sirius thought about that a moment and shook his head truthfully. "I don't think I did."

Harry made yet another disgusted face and stood up with the rest of the Marauders. "I never even thought that possible." He muttered and James patted him on the head and ignored the growl that emitted from Harry.

"Sirius quite amazingly talented in the acts of disgusting." James said cheerfully and ducked the punch Sirius threw at him.

"I'm not disgusting." Sirius defended himself and the rest of the group rolled their eyes.

They were practically out the door when someone came up behind them. "Well, I think you are." a girl voice said and the group turned around to face a redheaded, green eyed beautiful sixteen years old witch and two other girls the same age, one with waist length dark brown hair and light blue eyes and the other one with mid-back length blonde hair and dark blue eyes, both wearing Gryffindor crested robes.

James suddenly perked up. "Hi Lily! I couldn't agree with you more!"

Lily barely glanced at him before she turned her attentions to Harry. Harry's identical green eyes widened as he looked at his mother. The urge to jump into her arms was so great that he started to shake a little. Lily raised her eyebrow and smiled. "Hello there Harry." She said and stuck her hand out to him. Harry looked at it a moment then shook it. "I'm Lily Evans."

Before Harry could open his mouth to reply, the blonde pushed up to Lily and stuck her hand out to. "Konichiwa, Harry! I'm Midori Kinomoto! It's very nice to meet you!"

Harry let go of Lily's hand and shook hers. "Hi Midori."

Soon the other girl pushed up and stuck her hand out to with a smile. "Hullo 'Arry! I'm Alice McAuthor and I'm verra pleased to meet ye!" Harry's eyes slightly widen as he let go of Midori's hand and shook Alice's. Alice grinned at Midori. "He is verra cute." Harry blushed as Midori nodded.

Lily glared at her and slapped her friend's arm and Alice let go. "Stop that! You're scaring the poor boy." Lily then turned to Harry. "Sorry about them…they are certified stalkers."

"No we aren't! Tis' nay stalking if we followed ye to him, so donna give us that look." Alice said in a dignified manner.

"Hai, we just followed you, because you wanted to meet him and we can say if he's kawaii." Midori added.

Harry stared at his mother and her friends. He was starting to suspect they were even odder then the Marauders. Suddenly, Sirius walked up behind Harry and grinned over his head. "Hiya all. I think our poor Harry has had a rough day and is deserving of going to bed. So say your good nights and we'll be off."

The girls looked at him and Midori smiled. "You're such a kawaii baka."

The other two girls burst out in giggling and Sirius glared at them. "I hope you know that I have been around you enough to know what that means."

Midori smiled and patted Sirius on the cheek. "Gomen, Sirius, but you're so fun to tease. But as you say, Harry does look a bit tired, so I'll say nighty-night to you all." Midori stepped back. "Konbanwa."

"Aye, good night." Alice said with a grin at them.

Lily sighed. "Yeah, good night everyone." With that, all of the girls walked away, leaving the male group to stare at them in slight amazement.

There was a sigh from James. "I love that woman."

"Ya, ya…we know James." Sirius said with a sigh. "The other two are as or more interesting then Lily though." He started to walk away and was quickly followed by James, then the other three.

"Bite your tongue man! Lily is more interesting then them, because she decided to hang out with them." James shouted.

Harry stared at their backs as he followed them. 'I never realized that my mother would have just as odd friends as my father…'

'There's a lot you don't know about your mum.' Destiny replied.

Harry sighed in slight annoyance. 'I'm never going to have private thoughts again…'

'Technically, no one ever has private thoughts…'

Harry stopped suddenly out of shock. 'What do you mean?'

Destiny sighed. 'I really shouldn't tell you…'

'Please?'

'But since you asked so cutely, I'll tell you…let's see…there are a few people who can listen in on your thoughts. There's me, Destiny, there's your guardian and a few other's who would like to remain nameless.'

'Guardian?'

'Yeah, guardian.'

When Destiny said no more, Harry was about to push when he felt someone tugging on his sleeve. He looked up into the concern eyes of Remus. "Huh?" Harry asked rather stupidly and Remus narrowed his eyes slightly.

"You looked rather lost there for a moment…" Remus said.

"Oh, sorry…" Harry said feeling slightly ashamed of being caught acting mental. Remus rolled his eyes and started walking and Harry followed. He looked around and realized the others weren't there. "Where are the others?"

"They went on ahead, though I don't know if James and Sirius noticed since they were arguing a bit loudly."

Harry nodded and followed Remus silently. 'I really need to stop spacing…they might send me to Madam Pomfrey for some doping up.' Harry sighed as they walked up the stairs Remus was heading up. Suddenly, he couldn't take the quiet any more and sad the first thing that came to mind. "I'm not crazy." When that left his mouth, he wanted to kick himself for saying it.

Remus stopped and turned to look at him with a raised eyebrow. "I never said you were."

Harry shook his head. "I know…sorry…"

"It's alright…you're just a bit odd and that works well in our group." Remus replied.

Harry looked up at his amber eyes and grinned. "I think you're right."

"That's not such an odd occurrence." Remus said with a smirk, which made Harry laugh.

Remus turned and started walking back up the stairs and Harry followed in a more upbeat mood. Soon enough, they reached the Fat Lady portrait and Remus told her the password and they were walking through an empty common's room and up the stairs towards the sixth year's dorm. There, Remus pushed open the door and walked in, Harry following. Harry closed the door and looked around. James and Peter were already in bed, Remus was walking towards his bed and gathering his things to go to bed, and both Harry's and Sirius' beds, which were next to each other, were empty. Harry's bed was closet to the front door on the left, next was Sirius, James, Remus and then Peter, closet to the door on the right. Harry walked over to his bed and saw the trunk with the name Harry Granger engraved on it.

'Thought you might like some clothes and the like.' Destiny whispered inside his head.

'Yes, that's a very good thing. Thanks.'

'No problem…I brought you here, so I have to take care of you.' And with that, she disappeared.

Harry rummaged through his trunk and saw that it was exactly like the one he had. Destiny must've taken his and brought it here. 'Wonder if she brought Hedwig too?'

"Where have you been?" someone shouted, making Harry jump, lose his thoughts and his armful of stuff.

'Oh Merlin…that sounded an awful lot like Mrs. Weasley…' Harry thought as he gathered his dropped stuff and stood up to look at the one who had shouted at him. There stood none other then Sirius Black wearing nothing but long black pants with hot pink skulls and cross-bones, pointing very threateningly a toothbrush. 'Though I highly doubt she'd wear those pants…oh Merlin, don't even think about that…you'll make yourself sick…'

"Answer me boy." Sirius demanded, waving his toothbrush in a menacing manner.

Suddenly Remus came up behind him, clothed in long maroon pants and a white t-shirt without sleeves, and smacked him upside the head. "Don't threaten him. You're the one who left him behind."

Sirius rubbed his head and pointed his hot pink toothbrush at Remus. "Don't hit me or you'll feel the wrath of my hot pink toothbrush of doom!"

Remus rolled his eyes and looked at Harry. "See, you're clearly not as mental as this one."

Harry, and the others, burst out in laughter. "Clearly." Harry said and walked past Sirius and into the bathroom.

Sirius glared at Remus until he walked into his bed, then he turned his glared upon the bathroom door. "I'm not mental."

"Yes you are." James said from his position on his bed.

Sirius glared at him. "You're opinion of me is biased, so it doesn't count."

"I think you're mental too." Peter said from his bed.

"You're also biased, so it doesn't matter, so nah!" Sirius said and stuck his tongue out at him.

"Am I biased then?" Remus asked as he flipped through the pages of a book.

"No, you're just insane."

Remus briefly looked up and glared at him then went back to reading. "But then you could say that you're opinion of me is also biased."

"My opinion matters, no matter if it's biased or not." Sirius replied then looked at his toothbrush. "Seems that I forgot about the hot pink toothbrush of doom…I guess I should put it back." He turned around and headed for the bathroom door. There, he grabbed the handle and flung it open. He saw the back of Harry, who was wearing a pair of green boxers and a white t-shirt. He also saw the startled look on Harry's face from mirror. Harry turned around, toothbrush still in mouth and glared slightly at Sirius. Sirius grinned. "That's a lovely picture." He said as he let bathroom door slam shut.

Harry turned around, took the toothbrush out of his mouth and spat the stuff from his mouth. He rinsed the toothbrush off, set it in his mirror of stuff and turned around to glare at Sirius. "You didn't have to throw the door open so violently you know?"

"Ah, put I got your attentions didn't I?"

Harry rolled his eyes and started to walk past Sirius. Sirius suddenly grabbed Harry's upper arm, startling him and stopping him. "What do you-" He looked up into Sirius' eyes and lost all train of thought. Sirius was looking at him in such a manner that Harry started to blush. It wasn't a bad look, just an odd one…one that gave him an odd feeling in the pit of his stomach and tightened his chest.

Sirius grinned and leaned down towards him. He leaned towards his ear and whispered, "Night my own green eyed beauty." He kissed the spot where his ear and cheek met and let him go to walk towards the sink and mirror.

Harry stared at him in wonder. "I thought…"

Sirius turned to him and raised his eyebrow. "You thought what?"

"That you didn't like men." Harry said and Sirius' eyes went wide.

"What?" Sirius stuttered. His eyes went wide as if he just realized what he did. "Oh Merlin…I'm so sorry Harry…I didn't mean…I mean I didn't…"

Harry bit back a frown and a sad feeling. "It's alright…" Harry turned and walked out the door, wondering why he felt so hurt by Sirius apologizing.

Sirius watched Harry leave and leaned back against the sink and bury his face in his hands. 'Oh Merlin…what did I do?' he thought. The problem was that he wasn't even thinking about what he did until Harry pointed it out. He never did that to anyone…not even a bloody girl. 'It just felt so…'

'Right?' that voice in his head that tried to convince him that he wasn't straight asked in a sympathetic manner.

'Ah, go dump yourself in the nearest dragon's cave…' Sirius thought and took a deep breath. 'Alright, well, you'll just have to make sure that never happens again.' Sirius told himself as he took his hands away from his face and set his toothbrush in his mirror cupboard. He took another deep breath and walked out into the dorm room. Everyone was in bed and all the curtains were pulled shut. He let out a relieved sigh and walked over to his bed. 'Thank Merlin…'

Suddenly, James bed curtain opened and he smirked at him. "So Siri," he said in a quiet voice. "What'd you do to him?"

Sirius glared at him. "Nothing…just a fluke."

"Just like those dreams?"

Sirius didn't even bother to grace him with an answer as he quickly and violently shut his curtains.
