A/N: I'm posting a second chapter along with this one, because this one is really short, and I have the other one done so. Enjoy. And reviews are so very nice. Thank you to everyone who has done so.
Lily sat in the common room staring at the fire. She didn't know what to think or feel. The kiss had been something of pure perfection, but if she'd been able to control herself it would never have happened. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath and then let it out slowly. She missed him with all her heart, she missed his voice and his laugh, she missed the way he would wrinkle his nose when he was confused and the way he would ruffle his hair on habit. He was an arrogant little prick…but she loved him. She loved him more than she'd ever loved anything in her whole life. He consumed her, all of her, and now…she wasn't sure if she could stay away from him. She knew now why she'd chosen not to speak with him for 3 months; it reduced the urge to kiss him.
She let out a grunt and rested her head in her hands.
"I'm guessing it didn't go as well as you hoped." Sirius' voice said. Lily looked up at him as he plopped down in the seat next to hers.
"No. It didn't." She said softly looking away from him and back at the fire. Sirius watched her for a moment and then leaned back in his chair.
"Lay it on me kid. What happened?" He said taking a cigarette out of his pocket and lighting it quickly. She looked up at him as he took a drag and then blew it out slowly.
"He kissed me." She said softly, waiting for his reaction. He raised a brow,
"Did he now? Weird." Now it was time for Lily's brow to be raised
"Weird? Weird? Try completely irresponsible and…rude! And…inappropriate." Sirius took another drag of his cigarette seeming to be at a complete calm.
"Inappropriate? Lily….of all the things it might've been…I don't think it was inappropriate." Lily frowned, coughing slightly as she inhaled some of the cigarette smoke.
"What do you mean?" She sniffed, fanning some of the smoke away from her.
"Lily you guys were together for almost 2 years…I think he has a bit of a right to kiss you whenever he pleases…" Lily stood up; anger was pulsing through her as she stared at the smug face sitting before her. He was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, one second he was the sweet caring Sirius who helped her out of her depressed slump and the next he was this…this arrogant toe rag that made her very angry.
"So he has a right to kiss me whenever he pleases?" She crossed her arms over her chest. "That is ridiculous Sirius Black. WE BROKE UP." Sirius stood to join her,
"No. You didn't! You never said. I want to break up. You never said I want to see other people. You never said any of that Lily! You just stopped talking to him! So if James wants to kiss you, I think he bloody well has the option! You gave him hell Lily! And in case you don't remember, I'm the best friend who has to put him back together again at the end of the day since you're off the hook now."
Lily looked at him, utter dislike displaying in her face. "You're a cockroach Sirius Black. A disgusting, stupid, arrogant cockroach." And with that she turned and left the common room.
