Disclaimer: Ah…for once, I think I might just say, look at all the other lovely disclaimers. Hehe…I don't own Harry Potter…haha…I said it!
Author Notes: Umm…if you didn't understand what Sirius meant by saying, "Night my own green eyed beauty.", you'll find out in this chapter…hopefully. If not, then the next chapter most definitely. Thanks for the reviews and don't ask what kind of mood I was in when I was writing Lily's friends…I just happen to love Scottish accents and I was on a Japanese kick, so that really explains it all. And if you're wondering how I know how to write a Scottish accent (and even if you don't) I learned from all my lovely Highlander romance novels…I love those…okay, now, onto the story! Oh, also, apparently Remus has forgiven Sirius or just decided it was easier to talk to him then ignore him.
Elphie Chan: Nope, I didn't get Midori from 'Midori Days'…I actually never even heard of that…I got the name from a website with baby names
Destiny, Interrupted
Chapter Five
Green Eyed Beauty
"Having tons of fun Harry?" a female voice asked somewhere in the dreamless darkness of Harry's sleeping mind. Harry's dream-self turned around and a blast of light blinded him. When the light and the dots in Harry's vision faded, he blinked a few times and looked around. It was a beach. There was a clear blue ocean, waves lapping up on the clean white sanded shore. There was a mountain in the distance and topical trees behind him. He looked up at the cloudless sky and wondered. "Look familiar?" the familiar female voice said and Harry turned around to see the dark haired, dark eyed Ravenclaw girl in a dark sundress sitting cross legged by the sand, under a palm tree.
"Yeah, it does, Destiny. I just don't know why…" Harry replied as he walked over to her and sat next to her. He was still wearing his PJ's.
Destiny smiled as she looked out to sea. "You came here before."
Harry wrinkled his forehead in thought. "When?"
"When you were six months old…your parents, Sirius and Remus brought you here. Sirius found it while on a mission."
A brief flash of a smiling Lily and James, a black dog and a sandcastle flittered through his mind then disappeared. "Oh…"
"If it makes you upset, we can go somewhere else."
"No." Harry said with a shake of his head. "That's alright…I like it here."
"That's good." Destiny said with a grin. "So, how do you like it here…there?"
Harry smiled. "It's definitely not what I expected."
"Really?" she asked with a raised eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"Well," he started with a laugh. "I think Dumbledore seems more of a drunk."
"What?"
"I mean, the way he introduced me tonight, he acted loopy."
Destiny grinned evilly. "Ah, well, he won't be like that all the time."
Harry shook his head. "I don't want to know."
"Good I wasn't about to tell you. Now, what else?"
"I suspect that my mum's friends are even odder then my dad's friends."
She burst out in laughter. "I think you suspect right…you haven't even met the other one."
"The other one?" Harry asked in shock.
"Yupe. There's another one."
"Oh Merlin…"
Destiny started laughing. "Don't worry…she won't try to get in your pants. She likes someone else. Actually, two someone's, but she'll pick one soon enough." Harry started laughing, because her laugh was catching. "Okay, anyways, anything else that wasn't as you expected?"
Harry slowly stopped laughing. "Yeah, there is."
"What is it?"
"It's Sirius. The person Sirius."
"Ah." Destiny said with a growing grin. "Sirius."
Harry turned and looked at her suspiciously. "What?"
Destiny turned and grinned at him. "Nothing."
Suddenly, Harry started to get an unsettling feeling in his stomach. "It's not nothing. Tell me."
"Nope. You'll have to figure it out on your own."
Harry felt like he was on a ship and he was getting seasick. "Tell me…"
"Not yet. Besides, it's time for you to wake up." She said and suddenly she and the beach all disappeared…
--------------------------------------------
"Do you like him?" a male voice asked somewhere in the dreamless darkness of Sirius's sleeping mind. Sirius quickly turned around and was blindsided by a bright light that left his vision full of dots. When he blinked away the dots, he looked around. He was standing on a beach. The ocean was very close to him and he was standing in white sand. In the distance was the outline of a mountain and behind him was a vast forest of tropical trees. "I asked you a question." the familiar male voice said and Sirius turned to see the blonde haired, green eyed Hufflepuff wearing swim trunks that matched his eyes and leaning against a palm tree, grinning happily at Sirius. He looked fitting to be on a beach.
"What was the question again, Fate?" Sirius asked as he walked over and sat next Fate and stretching his legs out to see that he was still wearing his pants.
Fate rolled his eyes. "I asked if you like him."
Sirius glared at him. "I like him as a friend…"
"Then what do you call what happened in the bathroom then?" Fate asked with a sly grin.
Sirius turned his face away from him to look out at the ocean. "A fluke." He could've sworn he heard Fate snort.
"Well then Mr. Black, that would make you just one giant fluke, wouldn't it?"
Sirius didn't bother to grace him with an answer and instead looked around curiously. "Why do I have a feeling I know this place?"
"You don't." Fate said and grinned when Sirius turned to glare at him. "Well, not yet at least. You will…sometime in the near future."
"Ah."
"And you'll name it."
Sirius turned to him in wonder. "Really? I'm going to name this beach?"
"Yupe. After someone important to you."
"Oh…" They lapsed into silence as they stared out at sea.
Suddenly, Fate spoke. "It's time for you to go."
"What?" With that barely out of his mouth, Fate and the beach all disappeared…
--------------------------------------------------
Sirius woke with a start to see that James was looking down at him with a slight frown. "What?" Sirius asked in a slightly annoyed voice.
James raised his eyebrow. "Nothing really. I mean, it's just time to get up and I thought that maybe I'd be a good friend and wake you up."
"Oh." Sirius said, feeling guilty. "Sorry…"
James rolled his eyes and stepped back. "It's alright; it was just that it was harder to wake you up then usual. And don't even get me started on how hard it is to wake Harry…"
"What do you mean?" Sirius asked, looking towards Harry's bed. The curtains were drawn open and Harry was sleeping rather peacefully.
"I mean that I couldn't wake him up. Neither could Moony or Wormtail and we all know if you can't wake him up, then the boy is doomed to sleep forever. So now get out of there and wake him up. We don't want him late for his first day of school do we?" With that said, James walked away towards the door. "We'll be waiting at breakfast for you two, so no diddle dawdling." And with that, he closed the door rather loudly. Sirius looked over to see Harry still sleeping away.
Sirius grinned as he pulled himself out of bed. He actually quite enjoyed waking people up…it amused him. He walked over towards Harry and stared down at him. Gently he sat at the edge of his bed, placed an arm on the bed on either side of the bed and plotted how best to wake him up. He decided he'd start of small by poking him the ribs. That did no good. Next he pinched Harry's nose close. The boy just opened his mouth to breath. Sirius glanced down at his mouth and quickly let go of Harry's nose so he could go breathing through his nose. He raised an eyebrow at him. 'Just how should I wake him up without touching him anymore?' An evil plot flickered through his mind. Slowly he stood up on the bed. When he made sure he had balance, he started jumping. Slowly at first, till he noticed nothing happening, so he jumped faster.
Suddenly, Harry eyes opened and he bolted up into sitting position, smacking his head on Sirius' bent knee. Sharp pain shot through Harry's head as Sirius fell on his arse and rubbed his knee. "What'd you do that for?" Sirius asked with a pout as Harry rubbed his head.
Harry looked up from lowered eyes, glared and started to growl. "I could ask you the same thing! What the bloody hell were you doing jumping on my bed this early in the morning!"
Sirius grinned innocently as he continued to rub his knee. "I was waking you up."
He looked up to see Harry still rubbing his head. Gently he moved Harry's hands away to look at what damage he caused. There was a large bump and lots of bruising. "Opps…guess I woke you up a bit to well. I'm surprised that I didn't knock you right back into dreamland."
Harry looked at him and pouted. "I'm just as surprised."
Sirius grinned and leaned close to him. "We better get up you now. Breakfast time is wasting away." Quickly he placed a kiss on the poor injury and just as quickly got off the bed.
Harry stared at Sirius' back as he walked into the bathroom. 'What…' Harry thought as he stared at the door in confusion. He really didn't understand that man and that intrigued him. He half smiled as he slid out of his bed to the floor. He stood up, waked over to his trunk and dragged out a uniform for the day. When he stood up, he walked to the bathroom and walked in to see that Sirius was half dress, brushing his hair.
Sirius grinned and turned around to look at Harry, continuing to brush his hair. He was wearing his pants, but his shirt was half button and his tie crooked. "Wow, look who finally decided to come out of bed."
Harry glared at him and threw his shirt at him, hard. Sirius caught it with ease and his smiled widened. "Don't smile at me like that." Harry muttered as he walked up and snatched his shirt from him.
Sirius pouted and hoisted himself onto the sink. "My, aren't we a lovely morning person."
"Well, when one waked up to be kneed in the head by an overly bouncy mutt, it puts one in a less then positive frame of mind."
Sirius grinned until what Harry said sunk in. He frowned and looked at Harry in confusion. "What did you call me?"
Harry stopped walking and his eyes widen. 'Shit…I thought Destiny was supposed to keep me from saying something stupid. Destiny?' He tried to hear her but apparently Destiny was leaving him to his own mistake on this one. 'You're evil…' he thought, then quickly turned around and smiled brightly at the confused Sirius. "I called you a mutt."
"Why?" Sirius asked, confusion still showing on his face.
Harry smiled more brightly, momentarily distracting Sirius. "James called you it yesterday."
"Really?" he asked, not paying attention at all to Harry's words, but to his mouth.
"Yes, really."
"Ah…"
Harry raised an eyebrow at the lack of attention Sirius was giving his words. "He also called you a sexy beast."
"Uh huh…" Sirius agreed distractedly.
"Are you also horny, as he said you were?" Sirius nodded and Harry's grin turned into a smirk, then all out laughter.
Sirius snapped out of his trance when Harry laughed and what he said and what he agreed to finally sunk in. "Oh, bloody hell…" Sirius muttered darkly and buried his face in his hands. 'What possessed me to be distracted?'
'His mouth and what you-' Sirius quickly squished that voice. Slowly, he lifted his head from his hands to see Harry still standing there, staring at him with a small smile on his face. Sirius cocked an eyebrow at him and Harry quickly snapped out of his trance and turned to walk farther down, disappearing into a stall. Sirius let out a sigh and slid off the sink onto his feet. He turned towards the mirror and looked at himself. As he started to straighten his clothes, he starting thinking, and that's never a good thing. He was thinking about Harry and himself and just what was so intriguing about the other boy. Soon enough, he was done fixing up and walked out the door to wait for Harry…
--------------------------------------------
Harry was just tugging on his shirt when he heard the door slam. He sighed and finished buttoning up the rest of his shirt. His line of thinking was on the same line as Sirius', but a wee bit different. He was also considering into the factor of them that he didn't belong here and that Sirius was his Godfather. He was also factoring in that he never thought of liking a boy or of a boy making him act even weirder then he did with Cho. He factored all this things together and he grinned when he figured out what the answer was…he didn't care. That was what that equation came out to be…not that he was ever any good at math, it was just that…well, he would have to think on this more…it seemed that Sirius was just as lost as he was with these feelings…For some reason, he was always good at figuring out who he liked, but usually lost what ever control to act cool he had, but at least he was able to admit to himself if he liked a person, though he never felt this way around either Cho or Ginny…And right now, he knew he liked Sirius, it was just something new to him and all these factors to look at, that he had to think about this a little bit longer.
He sighed again when he realized he had been in there an awfully long time. He walked out of the stall and towards the sink to wash his face and whatever else he did in the morning before facing the world. When he was all done that, he walked out of the bathroom, not really paying attention, seeing as he thought he was the only one there. Only when he had already shoved his PJ's in his trunk and standing, did he notice Sirius sitting on his bed, grinning at him. Harry jumped and glared at the now smirking Sirius. "What the bloody hell are you doing here?"
Sirius raised an eyebrow. "Well, I was waiting for you to finish in there. It took you a very long time, didn't it?"
Harry glared at him. "I was thinking, if you must know." Sirius just nodded and looked skeptical, which made him feel slightly annoyed. "What, then, do you think I was doing?" Sirius just continued to smirk. Suddenly, it hit Harry what the other boy probably thought he was doing. "Ugh…you're disgusting."
Sirius started to laugh. "It's a natural thing to do."
"You're disgusting…"
"Yeah, I've been told this many of times."
"You're disgusting…"
Sirius sighed. "Yeah, yeah…it's time for breakfast." Sirius stood up from his bed and smiled down at Harry. "But, can you tell me that you've never done that before?"
Harry just looked at him in shock for a moment. "Do you really want to know?"
"Nah…already know you do, don't I?" And with that said, Sirius started to walk out the door, followed by a very surprised Harry.
--------------------------------------------------------
They walked down to breakfast and saw that the Great Hall was full of late students who couldn't wake up in the morning. They walked over and sat next to the other sixth year Gryffindor boys. "What took you so long?" James asked as he finished off the rest of his orange juice.
"Somebody was busy in the bathroom." Sirius said with a smile.
Harry glared at him and kicked him. "I wasn't. Though I couldn't say what you were doing while I was in the bathroom."
Before Sirius could even open his mouth, a bunch of girls walked up behind Harry. "Konichiwa Harry!" Midori said cheerfully.
"How was your first night here?" Lily asked.
Harry turned around and smiled at them. There was Alice, Lily, Midori and another girl there. This girl had short, spiky white blonde hair and silver eyes. She was the second shortest in the group, very close to Harry's height. Alice was the shortest, Midori the tallest, a few inches taller then Harry, and Lily about the same height as the new girl. "Good morning. It was a good first night." He replied and looked at the new girl.
She smiled. "Bonjour. I'm Raena Strom, but you may call me Raen."
"Oi, we didn't introduce her, did we?" Alice said.
"No…" Harry replied.
"Well, she was sick yesterday." Lily replied, with a quick look at Raen.
Raen smiled. "Yeah…I got sick. Though, my friends did say you were très mignon, and I say, I have to agree. You look a lot like our Lily here."
All present looked between Lily and Harry. "Whoa…they do look a lot alike." Remus said.
James grinned at Harry. "You do look a lot like my green eyed beauty here."
Harry looked at James in shock as Lily slapped him hard on the head. James pouted up at Lily as Harry turned to look Sirius, who was now avoiding his gaze. "I'm not yours Potter."
James pouted some more, but suddenly a little blue eyed blonde boy of about fourteen popped up next to Midori. "Hullo sis!" the little boy said cheerfully.
Midori smiled and patted the boy on the head. "Hullo Momiji! What do you want?"
"Err…nothing really…I just came to greet the new kid! Hullo Harry!" Momiji said, sticking his hand out towards Harry.
Harry took it and smiled. "Hello Momiji."
Momiji smiled back and looked at the entrance. "Oh, I have to go… konbanwa." He said and walked away.
Harry blinked. He decided there were more weird people here then there were in his time. He also decided that Lily was a magnate for odd people, seeing as her friends were even odder the James'. "Och, aye, we have to go to. Donna want to be late for Potions, do we?" Alice said, with a glance at her watch.
"Iie…" Midori said with a sigh.
"Alright then, au revoir." Raen said, turning around and walking towards the door. The other girls followed, but Lily turned around half way to the door and waved good bye to them.
Silence reigned over them as the girls disappeared around the corner. It took a moment before anyone talked. "Wow…those girls are amazing." Peter said, practically in a swoon.
"Have to agree with you there mate." Sirius said with a grin.
"Well, we better follow them." Remus said, getting up. "We have Potions too you know."
"Ugh…don't remind me…" James muttered as he also got up.
Harry watched them all stand up. "Is that what I have also?"
"Umm, Harry? Why would we know and not you?" Peter asked, earning a slight glare from Harry.
'Don't worry Harry.' Destiny said in his head. 'You just have to follow Sirius…he has all the same classes as you.'
'Thanks.' Harry thought then remembered earlier. 'Where were you earlier?' he thought suspiciously and angrily at her. 'I thought you were going to keep me from saying anything stupid.'
He felt Destiny grin in his mind. 'Well, that wasn't the stupidest thing you could've said and you took care of yourself well.'
Harry rolled his eyes and looked up to see that all the others were waiting for him. "I just remembered…Dumbledore told me to follow Sirius. He has all the same classes as me."
"Well, aren't you lucky Harry." Remus said sarcastically.
"Humph. I think he is." Sirius said, pulling Harry close. "Who wouldn't want to follow me around?" All three of his friends raised their hands. "Oh, I feel the love…" Sirius said, dragging Harry away with him. "At least Harry loves me!" he shouted and he heard snickering from his friends.
Soon enough though, the other three followed along and they were heading to the dungeons and Sirius still hadn't let go of Harry, but at least now tugging him by his wrist, which left Harry to think. 'Do I really love him?'
