I wasn't going to make this a two parter, but I am now. Except this happens later this day. Got it?
Chapter 10: …Connected By Hearts
Quidditch Pitch…
"Phoebe! Focus! You nearly fell off of your broom there!" Sirius yelled at his girlfriend. They were 40 feet in the air and Sirius was teaching Phoebe the basics of Quidditch.
"I would focus if I didn't have someone yelling at me to focus all the time!" She yelled back. Had they been closer than 20 feet of each other, they wouldn't have been yelling at all.
"Right, now I'm going to release the bludgers. Try not to get hit by them. Beaters ready?" Fred and George Weasley raised their clubs and saluted him. They had given themselves a day off to visit 'Ickle Ronnikins and Ginnikins' to which they had been threatened at Electrokinetic point to stop those nicknames forever 'or else' were Ginny's exact words. They had been roped into the practice because they were the best beaters out of everyone at Godric's Hollow. And not that they were complaining anyway, they loved Quidditch. They began to fly around once Sirius had thrown the destructive balls into the air.
"Phoebe, take the Quaffle and try to get it to this goal. Chasers and Keeper ready?" The Chasers, who consisted of Leo, James and Remus, nodded and the Keeper, Ron, did the same. Sirius was going to stay back and watch her. Everyone else was in the stands, watching and cheering, talking or both. The Quaffle released, Phoebe made her way down the pitch as quickly as she could. The Chasers had strict instructions not to be rough, and that is what happened. James and Remus' minds went back to when they were first years, sneaking onto the pitch with the older students brooms and teaching themselves how to play with the school balls.
In a Quidditch ball set, all the balls seemed to have minds of their own, which meant that each and every set would be completely different to play with. Leo, however, had never had the chance of going to Hogwarts and so was a beginner. In the next 20 minutes, Phoebe scored 16 times, which impressed Sirius. This was her only first try and she had been scoring nearly once a minute. For someone who was still a little unsteady on a broom it was good. Phoebe had just scored for the 17th time, retrieved the Quaffle and was flying faster now. But one of the bludgers was heading straight for her head. Sirius's eyes opened in horror, but she had quickly seen it and avoided it. Sirius sighed. "That was too close." He muttered. But no one had seen the second bludger until the last second. Sirius tried to shout out, but no words would emerge from his mouth.
'NO, PHOEBE!' He yelled in his mind. Phoebe looked at him suddenly just before she was hit on the arm. The arm she was holding the broom with. The arm fell and she was hurtling towards the ground 50 feet below. Sirius pushed his broom to the max to grab her before she hit the floor. Everyone on the brooms flew as fast as they could to the ground where Sirius landed the broom and laid Phoebe on the ground. The crowd in the stands orbed to where they were. Phoebe was unconscious and her arm was at a funny angle. Lily came through and held her hand over the arm. A golden glow was seen under her hand and when she removed it, Phoebe's arm was back to normal.
"Should we wake her?"
"I'll take her somewhere to lay until she wakes up. It's best to leave them to sleep for a while after a Quidditch injury, I should know." Sirius picked up the sleeping form of Phoebe Halliwell and took her inside. With a little orbing help from James who immediately left.
He laid her body down on the bed and watched her sleep.
'Phoebe I love you, wake up.' He thought. He got up to sit on the chair. 'I Couldn't imagine what could have happened with that first bludger.'
"Well, it would still be hurting and a hell of a lot more." Phoebe's voice said quietly. Sirius quickly shot up again as Phoebe opened her eyes. "And I love you too."
"What?" He asked, confused.
"You were talking to your self about the bludger. And you said that you loved me." She said, sitting up and leaning on the headboard.
"Phoebe, I didn't say that. I was thinking it." Sirius replied. Phoebe's eyes opened wider.
"Really? What about just before the bludger hit me? I heard you shout 'no' then my name so I looked then it went dark."
Sirius sat on the bed. "I didn't say that either. I thought it, I couldn't find my voice to warn you. It scared me so much.."
"Oh my god, what is going on with my powers then?" Phoebe said. "Maybe my powers are advancing or something…"
"Could be…" Sirius said. "We should send Lily or James to see the Elders."
"Yeah." Phoebe said slowly. 'My powers are so screwed up.' She thought.
"Your powers are not screwed up." Sirius said, holding her close.
"Sirius, I didn't say that. You saw me not say that. I thought it." Phoebe pulled away and looked at him. Chocolate brown eyes met silver grey ones. "What the hell is going on with us?"
Sirius looked thoughtful then his eyes widen in realisation. "Phoebe," He began slowly as he stood up, "What happened to Piper and Leo today?"
"We found out they had Soul Powers, you know that."
"And what Soul Powers are there?" He asked.
"Empathy, Tele… Ohh." Her eyes widened when she realised that it appeared they now had telepathy.
"We need to try it out." Sirius said. Can you hear this? Phoebe jumped a little.
Yes. She thought to him through her mind. Oh my god, this is so strange. I can feel your mind in mine.
Same here. We'll have to have a look in that book that Remus found today, find out what else we can expect with this power. It's just so bloody amazing magic, isn't it? Sirius grinned. Phoebe grinned back, nodded and gave a seductive wink.
Well, I can think of a few things we can talk about while in company now. Things we couldn't have spoken about before… She thought to him.
Why Miss Halliwell, are you trying to seduce me? Sirius asked, a smile on his face but an eyebrow raised in mock shock.
Phoebe walked over to him and put her arms around his waist. "Always." She whispered, kissing him, not realising that she had just replayed a scene that had happened before Prue had 'died' with a certain half demon.
The kiss became intense. Phoebe moved one of her hands to the back of Sirius' neck to play with the hair there, Sirius picked her up and they sat on the bed together, while he unbuttoned her top. A familiar set of lights filled the room and the top was immediately re-buttoned. The lights turned into the forms of her sisters and Leo.
"Well, I see why you wanted to take her up here." Prue grinned. "Sirius, you have a little lipstick on your face." The two of them blushed and Sirius quickly excused himself into the bathroom.
Why don't you tell them about this Pheebs. Sirius said to her, well thought.
"Guys, we just found something out." Phoebe started. "We have a Soul Power, me and Sirius."
"I knew it! I knew you would!" Piper said with glee. "You too hit it off from the moment you set eyes on each other."
"What do you have?" Paige asked.
"Telepathy." Sirius said, re-entering the room.
"Aww, you get the cool power." Piper complained, pouting.
"Piper." Leo said, warning her to stop. Piper, feeling Leo's feelings about it, stopped.
"You have a form of it too. You can feel each other's feelings, which means you want them to stop doing something and they'll get the message." Prue said.
"Yeah I guess." Piper and Leo's eyes met and neither was going to tell that that was exactly what had just happened. It made them smile slightly though.
"Shall we go tell the others then?" Phoebe and Sirius said in union and laughed.
"Did you mean to do that?" Paige asked.
"No." They both said together again and everyone laughed as they orbed back down to the Quidditch pitch, where there were 9 other people worried about Phoebe.
Well, what do you think? From now on, all Soul Power telepathy will be bold with no speech marks. Ok? Please update and tell me what you thought of this chapter. Review first and you get the next chapter dedicated to you! A cheap bribe, but I hope it'll work. Lol! Wow, this is a long chapter too, yay for me!
