Sirius's POV:
I spun on my heels and turned around. I caught my expression in the mirror that was hanging on the wall, my face was shocked. I couldn't believe that this one girl was able to resist me. I have been flirting shamelessly, partially to try and figure out why she was so friendly and partially because she was just so damn cute. I walked upstairs to my dorm that was decked in maroon and gold. I laid down on my bed and a few minutes later James and Lupin came running through the door and collapsed on their separate beds laughing.
"Hey James, What was with Lilly tonight?" I asked wiggling my eyebrows.
"I think I'm finally growing on her!" He said with a grin. "Though she said she was only fooling about the whole Hogsmeade thing, she actually talked to me for a full 7 and a half minutes without pretending to need to puke!" Lupin and I were on the floor laughing when the door opened and Peter walked into the dorm.
"Where have you been?" Lupin asked him.
"Hanging out with some of the people in my classes… you know." We all nodded. "So what are our amazing plans for pranks this year?" James and I gave each other a look.
"Well first off, we have to prank Lilly at least once. And on the subject of pranking people, what do we think about Addy?" He asked. We had a system of only pranking the people we knew would take it in good enough humor to not get us into trouble or people who just reallyyy needed to be pranked. I shrugged.
"It's really annoying. She doesn't even notice that I'm throwing myself at her here, she just ignores me. Its bugging me. I mean, for god's sake, she fell on top of me, and didn't even flinch. I was considering half the night that I'd lost my touch." I said shaking my head. James burst into laughter, but I continued. "I think we can trust her enough to prank her. She actually seems pretty cool, but we should still hold off until we know for sure." I looked around for support Lupin and Peter nodded, but James was still laughing so hard he was crying.
"Y-you. R-r-rejected. By… the NEW GIRL." He took a break to snort in laughter. "Maybe you have lost your touch." He said. "In fact I bet you have. Lets go downstairs and see."
"Ok." I said sensing the challenge and following him out of the dorm into the common room that was my home. I saw a group of 7th year girls sitting on the couch.
"4 galleons that one of them throws herself at me in 4 minutes." I said sticking out my hand.
"Deal." James said with a smile. I saw Lupin and Peter settled themselves down on the steps to watch the show. I walked up to the group and put on my classic 'don't you want me' smile.
"Hey ladies." I cooed, "What are you up to?" I saw two bat their eyes at me and winked at them they both flushed.
"Oh. Hi Sirius we were just-" the redhead started.
"We're deciding a theme for the halloween ball." The blonde in the back right said, "I think that the theme should be fairytale-esque. Ball gowns, guys in tux's…" I flinched, "Maybe even masks."
"Sounds like a great idea." I said winking though I wanted to puke. She lit up.
"It was my idea!" One of the other girls called out.
"Yeah right. It was mine and you know it." Yet another girl said. The three of them backed off into a fight, and the original redhead said,
"So Sirius, got any plans for tonight?" biting her lip seductively.
"Not yet" I said yawning.
"Want to go for a walk? Maybe find a good closet?" She said with a wink, tilting her head to the side.
"Sure Shelia, sounds like a plan." I smiled and started toward the common room door, Shelia at my heels. "I so still got it!" I whispered to James as I walked by and smirked as he slipped some galleons in my pocket. I loved being back at Hogwarts!
When I went upstairs, I just collapsed on my bed, pulling off my pants and shirt, and pulling the curtains around my bed.
"Night guys, don't let the flubble-bugs bite." Lupin recited an old bug that was commonly found in the Hogwarts mattresses. I sighed at his reminder and checked for them. Luckily there were none tonight, so I could just head right to sleep. I closed my eyes and drifted. Next thing I knew I felt a pressure on my back, a poking on my head, and a voice calling,
"Sirius! Oi Sirius!" I rolled over and heard a loud 'Oomph' as I fell back asleep.
Addy's POV:
I got upstairs and scoped out the new room. I saw that Lilly's name was on the door as well as an girl named Katherine Clearwater and another named Trina Shi. I went to the four poster bed situated against the wall and began to prepare for bed. I pulled of my clothes and threw on a pair of girl boxers with monkeys on them and a pink tank top. I pulled my dark hair into a side bun and several pieces spewed out of it. I walked into the bathroom, washed my face, brushed my teeth, and conked out on my bed.
I woke up the next morning to the light filtering through the window. Lilly was fast asleep on the bed next to me as was the girl named Trina, Katherine was no where to be seen. Trina had long dark hair and oriental features. She was sound asleep otherwise I would've introduced myself. I looked at the clock and groaned. It was only seven o'clock and first breakfast didn't start until 8. Wonderful. Curses to me being an early riser. I grabbed a towel and the uniform that they required us to wear. I stepped into the shower and took my time scrubbing the oil from the day's travel out of my hair. When I was done with my shower, and getting dressed I stepped out of the shower to see Lilly was up, but barely.
"Hey. I'm going to take a shower, I'll meet you at breakfast." I nodded.
"Wait! I don't know how to get there." I called. She turned,
"Uhm… go bother one of the guys, you can go right up to their dorm. Room 37-D." I nodded and ran down the stairs. Once in the common room eyes followed me everywhere. I would've felt self conscience if I hadn't wanted to get out of there more than anything in the world. I was mortified. I ran up the boy's stairs, half expecting them to turn into slides like the girls staircase had done last night. To my joy they didn't. I walked past each door until I reached 37-D. I knocked but no one answered so I went inside. Three of the beds still had the curtains closed. I could hear the fourth boy in the shower. I walked around to each bed pulling back the curtains. Sirius was in the bed closes to the door, then James, then the empty one which I presumed to be Lupin's because in the last bed was Peter. I didn't want to wait until Lupin was done with his shower. I was starving so I went to Sirius's bed. I didn't know James or Peter well enough. So Sirius would have to be my tour guide. I sat on his back cross-legged, and could feel the muscles that covered it. It reminded me of seeing his muscular chest the day before on the train and I concluded his back must be just as ripped as his abs.. I poked him in the head.
*Poke "Sirius!" Poke, Poke, "Oi! Sirius!" He didn't seem to notice, and to my dismay he rolled onto his back, having no trouble sending me flying off the bed onto the ground with a loud 'Oomph.' I picked myself up off the floor and glared at him. This was going to be harder then I expected.
I tried everything. Calling his name, poking him. Pulling the covers off of him (all that succeeded in was making me blush. He was only wearing boxers). Finally I just sat there, right on his stomach, legs crossed, head resting on hands, waiting for someone to wake up and show me the Great Hall. It was already five past 8 and I was starving. After sitting for around five more minutes Lupin walked out, (fully dressed thank god) and nearly jumped out of his skin when he saw me perched on Sirius's toned torso. He took in my frustrated expression and laughed.
"How long have you been trying to get him up?" He guessed.
"Only for around 10 effing minutes or so." He just chuckled.
"They sleep like logs, there's only one good way to get them up. Well ok, more then one; but only one fun way to get them up." He said smiling evilly. He went over to James first and threw a glass of water on his face. He woke up sputtering and gasping from the cold. Went to Peter and pulled the pillow from under his head, hitting him with it repeatedly. He awoke with an evil glare towards Lupin. Then he came towards me and Sirius. I moved to get off but he told me to stay put. "Oi. Sirius, Mate." He called fairly loudly. Sirius just groaned. "Sirius there's a very pretty girl sitting on your stomach right now, trying to have her way with you."
"That's fine." Sirius mumbled before shooting up screaming "WHAT!!!" Then his eyes met my face which was red from laughter. Well his eyes tried to meet my face but I had a habit of covering my face with my hands when I laugh so I can guess he only saw my hair. "Oh." He said. "Hi pretty girl." And he lied back down causing the entire room to roar in laughter. Lupin barely choking out
"Well that's a first. He's never laid back down. Even that time we got Missy to come stand over him." I just laughed harder even though I had no idea who Missy was. Eventually he realized that I was physically sitting on him and grumbled, "Love will you get off so I can go take a shower?"
"Only if I can come with you and have my way with you… again." I cracked up. Even sleepy-head Sirius cracked a smile. "Hey Remy, can you show me the Great Hall?" I asked. He nodded and lead me out of the room while the rest of the guys got ready for class.
The second we got downstairs to the Gryffindor table, I started scarfing food. I had orange juice, bacon, and eggs. Lilly was already sitting there and she came to sit by me and Lupin. When the rest of the boys came downstairs with only ten minutes to spare. As they started devouring food at a pace I thought impossible, McGonagall came to hand out schedules. Lupin, Sirius, James, Lilly and I had most classes together along with the rest of the sixth year Gryffindors, although I didn't have many of my classes with all of them because of the previous year's OWL sorting. My schedule:
Advanced Magical Theory:
Transfiguration: w/ Ravenclaws
Potions: w/ Slytherines
Break
Lunch
Lesson w/ Dumbledore
Defense Against the Dark Arts: w/ Slytherin
Charms: w/ Huffelpuffs
Sirius, Lupin and I had identical schedules, accept for the Lessons with Dumbledore and the Break class. I had four out of seven classes with Lilly and James, and lunch with all of them. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad. I had to run back up to the dorm before class started to get my books, and Sirius who had finished stuffing his face offered to take me up. We left the table and he seemed genuinely curious about something. "What's on your mind?" I asked him as we took off up the stairs.
