Don't Let Your Guard Down
chapter 34
okay just to clear something up: when lily said "fine" distractedly at the end of the previous chapter, she was NOT saying fine to james. she was just distracted and her head was clouded and "fine" was the only thing that came out of her mouth. so her and james aren't getting back together...yet (or maybe never...who knows! hehe i'm evil)
Disclaimer: I'm J.K. Rowling so therefore everything belongs to me... HA, i wish!
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Oh c'mon," Sirius said, moving from sitting on top of the couch to sitting on the arm. "Just because Jillie says no doesn't mean she doesn't want to go out with you."
"What world are you living in?" Remus asked.
"Well I'm sorry I don't know what to say," Sirius said with a pout. "I've never been rejected before."
"That's bullshit," Gigi said. "I must have told you at least a hundred times to leave me alone."
Sirius turned to look at her. "Damn, I forgot you were here."
"When a girl says no to a guy," Lily followed up, "it usually not only means no but also go away, leave me the hell alone, and I'm getting my brother and/or guy friends to beat you to the ground if you come near me."
"All that from a two letter word?" Peter asked.
"You forgot to say that it usually means that we'll nail your ass to your seat if you even try to take a step towards us," Kacie noted.
"Remind me to keep at least a hundred feet between me and Jillie at all times," Remus said.
"Make it a thousand," Gigi, Kacie, and Lily all responded.
"Should I just transfer schools?" Remus said.
The girls exchanged glances. "Yeah, that's probably best," Lily confirmed.
"You want him to leave?" Sirius asked.
"It's for his best interest," Gigi noted.
They all looked at each other and burst out laughing. It had been two days since James and Lily met up in the hallway and they haven't spoken to each other or even looked in each other's direction since the confrontation in the hallway after Radley asked Lily out for another date. Lily had this date with Radley in three days and she still couldn't decide what to do. And it didn't help that her and James were completely avoiding each other.
"Hey, did you guys know that baby rattlesnakes are born without rattles?" Sirius asked.
Everyone just stared at him. "For once…I am at a loss for words," Gigi said.
"Where the hell did that come from?" Remus asked.
Sirius shrugged. "I just saw that snake crawling across the room by Kacie's foot and it reminded me of this fact."
"Snake?" Kacie cried out, jumping out of her seat.
"Do something about it!" Gigi exclaimed, tugging on Sirius's sleeve.
"I'm sure someone else is taking care of it," Sirius said with a shrug.
"Sirius," Lily said, "when there is a snake slithering around the common room, assume no one is doing anything about it!"
"Okay," Sirius said bluntly.
"Which means you should do something about it," Lily urged.
"Why didn't you just say that in the first place?" Sirius asked.
"I figured that doing something about a random snake slithering around wasn't something I had to tell you," Lily said.
"That snake has been slithering around for at least ten minutes," Remus said. "I'm sure it will eventually get bored and leave."
"Get rid of the snake!" Kacie exclaimed urgently.
Sirius walked over to the snake and picked it up, said a spell, and it vanished into thin air. "Fine, but I know your birthday is coming up Kacie. You'll be sorry to see the thing go."
"If you get me anything that crawls on the floor Black, you are dead," Kacie said.
"To be fair, crawling entails legs and a snake has none," Sirius said.
"Well aren't we Mr. I-Know-Everything," Kacie grumbled.
"Now if only this useless information was on tests," Peter said. "Then you'd be doing a hell of a lot better in classes."
Lily looked up and saw a certain messy haired, brown eyed kid enter the room and shot her head back to look at the group. "Gotta go," Lily said abruptly, gathering her books and her bag and jetting out of the common room.
"What the hell was that?" Remus asked, surprised at her sudden interest to leave.
"Hey guys," James said, not even looking at Lily as she passed him to get through the portrait hole. "Whatcha up to?"
"Did you know that baby rattlesnakes are born without rattles?" Remus asked.
"Really?" James asked, sitting down in the spot where Lily was sitting just moments ago. "That's awesome."
"Yeah, he's really smart," Gigi said, smiling at Remus. "He knows so much."
"He knows nothing!" Sirius exclaimed. "He learned it from me!"
"You expect me to believe that you knew something that no one else here knew?" James asked with a laugh.
Sirius pouted. "Next time, I'm keeping my mouth shut."
"Finally!" Kacie cried out as she ducked from the pillow thrown in her direction.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"So is it just an illusion?" Sirius asked the next day.
James banged his head against the table. "We have been talking about this for five minutes. Isn't it time to move on?"
"I just don't get it!" Sirius cried out. "It's a lap when you're sitting down, but when you get up, it vanishes! So therefore, it must be some sort of deception."
"Yes," Remus answered hurriedly. "It's an illusion. End of story. Next topic."
"How the hell do you put up with him?" Kacie asked Gigi.
Gigi grinned. "If only you knew how well he kisses."
Sirius gasped. "That's the only reason you like me?"
"Well you're also hot," Gigi added.
Sirius grinned. "That's better."
"Sirius isn't hot," Kacie noted. "I mean there's a lot better looking out there."
"Why? Why?" Sirius demanded to know. "I'm not smart. I have no style. I tend to ramble when talking which apparently annoys people. And I am not the nicest person. Being hot is all I got. Why would you take that away from me?"
"You can't take something away from someone who never had it," Kacie said, taking a sip of water.
"You better watch yourself Hunter," Sirius said. "I can still give you a snake for your birthday."
Kacie smirked. "You tell me the actual date of my birthday, and I'll allow you to give me a snake. Hell, you can give me an entire family of snakes."
Sirius paused to think. He thought real hard about it and then groaned. "That's not fair! I just told you I wasn't smart. I'm bad at memorization!"
"You could have at least guessed," Gigi muttered.
"July 8th?" Sirius guessed.
"You got the month right," Remus said with a shrug.
"No he didn't," Kacie said.
"Shh," Remus hushed. "I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt."
The group exchanged glances and burst into laughter, Kacie playfully throwing a pillow at Sirius. James laughed as Sirius ducked and the pillow hit Gigi square in the face. He shook his head and rolled his head as he moved to the ground, leaning against the couch.
"Do you guys realize that our lives here at Hogwarts are completely ending in a month?" James brought up.
"Not Sirius," Gigi joked. "He still has three or four more years left."
"That's not true!" Sirius cried out and then shrugged. "Two at most."
James rolled his eyes and noticed a girl with fiery red hair walk into the commons room. He got up hastily and quickly said, "Gotta go now."
"Wait, I have a question," Sirius said. "Did you-"
"Bye!" James exclaimed, rushing out of the room.
"What the hell was that about?" Peter asked as he watched James literally jog out of the room.
Lily didn't notice him since he rushed up to the boy's room instead of out of the commons room. "Hey everyone."
There was a chorus of "hey Lily" as she sat down on the ground on her stomach with her feet up in the air.
"So there's really only a month left?" Sirius asked, going back to the previous topic of discussion.
"A little less than a month," Remus said.
"Damn," Sirius muttered under his breath. "I guess I should start studying."
"You haven't studied for the past six and a half years," Gigi pointed out. "Why start now?"
"Good point," Sirius said, sliding down on the couch and putting his arm around Gigi.
Lily looked around at her friends and frowned. Only a month left of Hogwarts and then they'll all be out in the real world. How can such a big group stay so close when they won't be together all the time? And if she and James can't even work things out now, who's to say the group will stay together. Lily sighed heavily.
Kacie turned to Lily. "What's on your mind?"
Lily glanced around at a couple of first years playing chess, some third years making fun of the second years, a few of the fourth and fifth years mingling and playing exploding snaps, and a sixth year sitting by the fire while reading. "I love this place."
"It's been home for seven years," Gigi said. "What's not to love?"
"I could do without Sirius though," Lily said.
"Hey, whoa, hold up a sec," Sirius said.
"Me too," Gigi responded.
Sirius gawked at Gigi. "I can't believe you just said that."
"Yeah, Si's not a bad guy once you get to know him," Remus said with a shrug.
"I could do without you too," Gigi said to Remus.
Remus looked at Gigi momentarily and then turned to Sirius. "You're on your own."
Lily laughed but immediately got off the ground when she saw James coming down from the boy's staircase. "Oops, I have stuff to do. Bye!" Once again, the group watched her jet out of the room like she was on fire.
James turned the corner and poked his head out to make sure Lily wasn't there. Sure enough, it was safe to enter the common room. "Hey Sirius, do you have extra quills in your room?"
"Yeah," Sirius said. "Look in the desk drawer. Oh wait…no, look in my trunk." Sirius paused. "No, can't be there. Look under my bed maybe…"
"I have some on my desk," Remus responded.
"Thanks," James said and then he turned around to leave.
"No! They are definitely on the top of my-" Sirius started to say.
"He doesn't need them anymore," Remus said as James left the room.
"Good," Sirius said. "Because I'm not sure where they are."
"Oh really? I got the impression you knew exactly where they were," Remus said, rolling his eyes.
Peter turned to the group. "So what the hell is going on with those two?"
"Yeah," Gigi chimed in. "Something weird is definitely going on."
"There is?" Sirius asked, looking up from what he was doing. "What two people?"
The rest of the group stared at him. "Do you live in the same world we're living in?"
"Fantasy world?" Sirius asked.
"Should have known that you have never heard of the real world," Gigi said.
"So she hasn't mentioned anything to you?" Remus asked.
"Who? Who's the she?" Sirius asked.
"Nothing about him," Gigi said. "A lot about homework, graduation, and a whole hell of a lot about how we should study."
"Oooh, you're talking about Lily," Sirius confirmed with a nod. But then he shook his head in a confused manner and turned to his friends. "Wait, so what's wrong with Lily?"
As usual, everyone completely ignored him. "Why are they avoiding each other?" Kacie wondered.
"Who's avoiding who?" Sirius asked.
"Whom," Remus corrected.
"Oh, now you pay attention to me," Sirius said, rolling his eyes.
"And he hasn't said anything to you?" Gigi asked and Remus just shook his head.
"Who's the he??" Sirius cried out.
"And what about Radley? We haven't heard much about him recently," Kacie noted.
"What the hell is going on?!" Sirius burst out, jumping up from the couch to get everyone's attention.
"Sirius, how can you be so oblivious?" Gigi asked.
"I'm not oblivious," Sirius said with a shrug. "I just don't know what's going on."
"Which is the exact definition of oblivious," Remus pointed out.
"I don't have time for a grammar lesson!" Sirius cried out.
"Technically that's a vocabulary lesson," Kacie said. Sirius growled at her. "But you don't seem to care for technicalities right now."
"James and Lily are avoiding each other," Gigi responded, finally answering Sirius's question.
"No they're not," Sirius said. "They were in class together all day."
"At total opposite ends of the room," Peter said.
"Without even a glance towards each other," Kacie said.
"And haven't you noticed that whenever we're all together, both of them aren't here. Only one of them at a time," Remus said.
"And they immediately leave if they notice the other one walk into the room," Gigi said.
Sirius sat down. "Damn, you miss a lot when you're not living in the real world."
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Yeah and then Bennie said that he thought Margie was the fat one," Gigi said making Kacie and Lily laugh out loud. "And they got into an actual fist fight!"
"Man, I wish I didn't miss that," Kacie said, sitting on top of the table with her feet on her chair.
"Well apparently Bennie is a lot stronger than I thought," Gigi said. "But all Margie had to do was sit on him to shut him up."
Lily and Kacie laughed again and sat down at a table, getting out their quills and parchment. Lily looked around the room and noticed the Marauders dart into the room laughing hysterically. She watched as James and Peter gave Sirius a high five while Remus clutched the desk to contain his laughter.
"Looks like they played another prank," Gigi said, rolling her eyes.
"Hide me," Sirius squeaked, running over and hiding behind Gigi.
"Oh yeah, hiding behind a girl who is hardly five feet will do the trick," Lily said, rolling her eyes.
"It could work," Sirius whispered.
"MR. BLACK!" a voice boomed.
"But not this time," Sirius said, coming out from behind Gigi. "Nope Gi, there isn't anything on your back." Sirius gave the professor a grin. "Hey there, just hanging out with my friends…harmlessly."
"That's a load of crap," Professor McGonagall asked, placing her hands on her hips.
Sirius gasped. "Did you just say crap?"
"Answer me!"
"You didn't ask me a question," Sirius pointed out.
"Ten points!" she cried out.
"For not answering a non-existent question??" Sirius cried out.
"Detention!"
"For pointing out that you can't take points off because I didn't answer a question you didn't ask?" Sirius burst out.
"Two detentions," Professor McGonagall shouted.
"I'm gonna shut up now," Sirius said. She scowled at him and walked away. "Hey professor? Will the detentions be with you? You know how much I love spending time with you."
"I'm not amused by your sucking up," she retorted and turned on her heels, walking towards the front of the room.
Sirius grinned and winked at Gigi. "Totally worth the ten points and detention."
"Two detentions," Gigi pointed out.
"Damnit!"
Gigi rolled her eyes at her boyfriend as he walked away and put his hand up for another round of high fives from his friends.
"Oh and Mr. Black?" Professor McGonagall asked.
"Yes professor?" Sirius asked, turning away from his friends to look up at the front of the room.
"Also write me an essay of why pranks are wrong," she said with a smirk.
Sirius's jaw dropped. "You can't do that!"
"One thousand words," she added.
"What?"
"Okay…two thousand words," Professor McGonagall corrected.
"I don't even know two thousand words," Sirius hissed to his friends, slumping down in his chair with a displeased look on his face.
Lily smiled a little as Sirius lowered his head a little and banged it against the desk a few times. She tried hard not to glance at James but couldn't help noticing that out of the corner of her eye, it appeared that James was gazing in her direction while acting like he was paying attention to what Remus was saying.
"So you actually gonna take notes this time?" Kacie asked Lily.
Lily tore her eyes away from the Marauders. "Huh?"
"You didn't take notes in Defense Against the Dark Arts today or Potions yesterday," Kacie noted.
Lily shrugged. "Yeah, I'll take notes now. There was nothing important to write down in the other two classes."
Gigi glanced up at Kacie who just shrugged and slid into her chair. Lily sighed and it took all her might to face the front of the classroom and not turn to her side to see what James was doing.
Lily glanced at the doorway as Radley walked through it. He smiled and walked over to Lily. "Hey you," he said. "I thought you had disappeared or something. I haven't seen you for a few days."
"Yeah, I've been really busy," Lily said with a forced smile.
"We still on for tonight?" Radley asked.
Lily paused and realized she's been trying so hard not to think about James and what he said to her that she hadn't thought about Radley and their date at all. She tried glancing over at James but Radley was blocking her view.
Eventually she smiled up at Radley. "Of course," she said, wondering to herself why she had to force herself to smile and say that. Radley smiled and walked to the back of the room.
Lily stole at glance at James who was completely ignoring his friends and staring right at Lily with a frown on his face. She sighed and turned back to her friends and faced the front, knowing that once again, she wasn't going to be able to take notes. She sighed again and leaned her elbow on the table and blankly stared at McGonagall as she started class.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Who assigns group projects with only a month of school left?" Sirius groans, walking out of Advanced Transfiguration.
"At least you got a good partner," Remus mumbled, angry that he got stuck with the school's goof-off.
"Ronnie Watson?" Sirius asked, raising her eyes. "That whore is too busy having sex with every guy in the school. She won't do any work."
"You used to envy that whore," James noted.
"He used to try and have sex with that whore," Peter said.
"Can we not call her 'that whore?' She-" Remus started.
"Who's a whore?" Ronnie asked, coming up from behind the boys.
"Sirius," Remus immediately answered.
Ronnie just flashed them a smile and turned to Sirius. "Wanna meet me tonight?"
"He has a girlfriend," James answered quickly.
Ronnie gave him a puzzled look. "Wanna meet me tonight to work on the project," she rephrased.
James gave her a sheepish grin. "I knew that."
"Wait, you have a girlfriend?" Ronnie asked, almost sounding like she was a little disappointed (and confused).
"No," Sirius said. "Who told you that?"
Ronnie gave him a strange look and then glanced at the other boys who just shrugged and gave her quizzical looks. She turned back to Sirius, "Meet me in the library tonight at eight." And with one more questioning look at all the boys, she turned on her heels and left.
"So what does Gigi think about you working with the female Casanova of the school?" James asked.
Sirius shrugged. "I'm sure she's fine and doesn't really care."
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Ronnie Watson?!" Gigi cried out. "He can't work with her!"
"Why not?" Lily asked, glancing behind her and seeing the boys close behind them on the stairs.
"Because she's Ronnie Watson," Gigi exclaimed.
"Oh, well as long as you've got a good reason," Kacie said, rolling her eyes.
"That girl is a sex god," Gigi said.
"You know this from experience?" Lily asked with a snicker but she soon shut up when Gigi glared at her.
"She can get any guy she wants," Gigi said. "Sirius has wanted to get with her since day one but she always intimidated him. You hear that? Sirius was actually scared of a girl! And now they'll be working together every day til the end of the year."
"Gi…and I say this with love…" Kacie said calmly, "you're a moron."
"How are you saying that with love?" Gigi grumbled.
"Sirius wouldn't cheat on you," Lily said.
"Really?" Gigi cried out. "Because he's done it before."
"You guys walk fast," Sirius said, practically running up the stairs to catch up with them.
Gigi looked at Lily and Kacie and then smiled fakely at Sirius. "Hello."
"Why'd you guys dart out of the classroom so fast?" Remus questioned, looking behind him and noticing James descending the stairs as fast as possible.
"Girl talk," Kacie responded.
"Ew, enough said," Sirius said, wrinkling his nose up.
"So what are you up to tonight?" Gigi asked, intertwining her fingers with Sirius's.
"Hanging out with Ronnie," Sirius said.
Gigi immediately let go of Sirius's hand. "What?"
"I think he means he's working on a really boring project with a really dull person," Remus corrected.
"He's working with Ronnie," Gigi said.
"Did I say dull?" Remus said. "I meant really hot."
Gigi growled at him.
Remus backed away and turned to Peter. "Did she just growl at me?" he whispered.
"I'd walk away now," Peter murmured.
"How come you got gorgeous Ronnie and I got stuck with stupid Kacie?" Gigi mumbled.
"Standing right here," Kacie noted.
"Oh c'mon," Sirius exclaimed. "She's not that gorgeous. And Kacie isn't that stupid."
"Again…standing right here," Kacie said, pointing to herself.
"Whatever," Gigi mumbled. "C'mon Kace, let's go work on our project."
"You want me to go with you after you just called me stupid?" Kacie asked.
"Yes," Gigi said firmly and with evil eyes.
"Okay," Kacie said. "But only because you look like you're about to kill me with your eyes if I don't follow you."
Gigi rolled her eyes and left with Kacie. Lily laughed at them and turned to Sirius, "So are you-"
"Lily!" Gigi cried out. "Aren't you coming with us?"
"But you're with stupid Kacie," Lily said. "I can't be seen with her."
"Seriously, standing right here," Kacie claimed.
"Let's go," Gigi mumbled angrily. Lily laughed at Kacie's comment and followed the girls, waving goodbye to the guys.
"What the hell was that about?" Sirius asked.
"Obviously Gi isn't cool with you working with Ronnie," Remus said.
"Why would Gigi care?" Sirius asked. "She knows I don't care for Ronnie. And she's never been the jealous type before."
"Do you blame her?" Remus asked. "You flirt with everything in a skirt."
"You even flirt with guys," Peter said.
"What??" Sirius cried out.
"Remember? You batted your eyelashes and told Mincus that the shirt he was wearing looked great on him," Peter said.
"When he was wearing robes," Remus added.
"Oh, I just wanted to borrow a quill," Sirius said. "I would have done anything for a quill."
"Vigorously taking notes?" Remus joked.
"Yes," Sirius answered.
"Meaning you were writing down an idea for a prank," Peter said.
"Exactly," Sirius confirmed.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Why so quiet?" Sirius asked Gigi later that afternoon.
Gigi looked up. "I'm doing homework. It's supposed to be quiet."
Sirius shrugged. "I wouldn't know." Gigi rolled her eyes. "You've been quiet all afternoon though."
"No I haven't."
"I asked you four times how you were and every time, you just shrugged your shoulders," Sirius pointed out.
"I'm fine," Gigi urged and then looked back up at him. "Happy?"
Sirius closed his book. "What is up with you?"
"Nothing," she mumbled.
"Did I do something wrong?" Sirius asked, sliding his chair closer to his girlfriend.
Gigi looked into his warm eyes and sighed. "No. You didn't do anything." Gigi sighed again at how stupid she was being. "Just forget it."
Sirius gave her a wary look. "Does this have to do with Ronnie?"
"Didn't I just say to just forget it?"
"Yeah, but if I listened then I wouldn't be me," Sirius said with a grin.
Gigi paused and then groaned. "Yeah, I hate that about you."
Sirius inched his chair forward and rested his head in his hand, slightly touching her arm with his other hand. "So?"
Gigi sighed and refused to look at Sirius. She just glanced down at the table, kicking herself mentally for even thinking jealous thoughts of Sirius and Ronnie. Sirius's days of being a player and a cheater were over…right?
Gigi shrugged. "I just don't like Ronnie."
"Why?"
Gigi shrugged again. "Because."
Sirius sighed with annoyance in his voice. 'Because isn't an answer."
Gigi looked at him, jerked her arm away from his touch, and then raised her voice, "because she has big boobs and sex on her mind every minute of every day. Because she's a slut who couldn't hold a relationship if her life depended on it. Because she's hot!"
Sirius didn't say anything for a few seconds until a smile crept up on his face. "You're so cute."
That threw Gigi off guard. "What?"
Sirius smirked. "You're jealous."
"I am not," Gigi argued, even though she knew it was true.
"You're cute when you're jealous," Sirius said with a slight smile.
"I am not jealous," Gigi exclaimed again.
"I don't want Ronnie," Sirius said. "I don't like Ronnie. I didn't even notice she was hot."
Gigi gave him a look.
"Okay, scratch that last one," Sirius said. "But I don't care about her. If you think I'm gonna do something with her, you're wrong. I would never do something that stupid to screw this up."
"Oh really?" Gigi snapped. "Because you've done it before." Right after she said it, she instantly regretted it and mentally slapped herself…hard.
Sirius pushed back his chair and got up. "Are you always gonna throw that in my face? Are you ever gonna let that go?"
"I have!" Gigi cried out and then sighed. "I'm trying to."
"Doesn't look like you're trying very hard," Sirius muttered irritably. "You use that against me every time we talk."
"Well can you blame me?" Gigi exclaimed.
"That was almost two years ago Gi," Sirius explained. "I've changed."
"You cheated on Lucie also," Gigi pointed out.
"With you."
"You still did it," Gigi retorted. "Face it, no matter what you have, you always want more."
"I can't believe you would say that!" Sirius shouted.
"Shhh," Gigi hissed, glancing around the room to see everyone staring at them. "You're making a scene."
"Well you should like it," Sirius said hastily. "You always have to be the center of attention. Here's your chance. Flash them a smile. Hell, flash them for all I care."
Gigi gave him a stern look.
"Or don't," Sirius said with a shrug.
"Well speaking of attention, at least I don't have the attention span of a goldfish," Gigi huffed.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Sirius asked.
"You stick to a girl about as long as you stick to a piece of gum," Gigi argued. "You're never satisfied with what you have…with the person you have. You're always looking around for something better."
Sirius gathered his things in a hurry and looked up just long enough to say, "I can't believe that after a month of dating me, you still don't trust me."
Gigi looked up at him with no expression on her face and didn't say anything. Sirius waited for her to say something but when she made no notion to do so, he sighed and picked up the rest of his stuff.
"This relationship is nothing if you can't learn to trust me," Sirius said. He looked up at her and said, "and it looks to me that no matter what I do or say, you won't trust me."
Gigi and Sirius stared at each other trying to comprehend what just happened. Sirius started to walk away not sure about what he wanted at the moment.
"So…that's it?" Gigi exclaimed helplessly.
Sirius paused to give some thought to what he just said to her. With one more glance at Gigi, he said, "I guess it has to be."
Gigi opened her mouth to say something but nothing came out. She did trust him…didn't she? She snuck a peek behind her and watched Sirius walk away and into the company of Ronnie. She sighed angrily and slammed her books shut.
