4. Love? What do I know about love?

I watch her as she laughs and talks with her friends, her hair glistening in the sunlight. I wish I were over there with her instead of her friends. I wish I were over there - the one making her laugh.

I shook that thought out of my head. I couldn't think of her like that. I mean, James was always going on and on about her. And from the way she acted even if she would never admit it, she fancied him too.

I couldn't love her, even though I do. It didn't matter.

Wait love? What do I know about love?

Absolutely nothing. Except that the girl I might be in love with is loved by someone else - my best mate to be exact.

"Sirius? What are you staring at?" Moony asks me. The rest of my group was staring at me with curious expressions.

"Huh?" I say, suddenly brought back down to Earth. "Oh, nothing."

I started back into the conversation with the word echoing in my head.

Nothing. And that's all it would ever be, nothing. Even if I wanted everything to be different, it never could be.
