Chapter 7—Novocaine

"Out of body and out of mind

Kiss the demons out of my dreams

I get the funny feeling that's alright

Jimmy says it's better than air

I'll tell you what…

Drain the pressure from the swelling

This sensation over whelming

Give me a long kiss goodnight

And everything will be alright

Tell me that I won't feel a thing

So give me Novocaine"

Sirius stared at her for a moment, opening his mouth to explain why a fully grown man was lying in her bed, where her dog once laid, with his arms wrapped protectively around her.

Suddenly an idea popped into his mind, he hastily grabbed his wand, which was lying beside him, pointed it at her, and said, "Sueño."

Jessica, whose face was once full of stark fear, immediately relaxed and appeared blank, indicating the spell was preformed successfully.

"Who am I, you ask," Sirius said relief evident in his voice, "I'm your Captain Jack Sparrow," he said smiling charmingly, thinking of her small obsession with Johnny Depp and his character from Pirates of the Caribbean, a Muggle movie, he'd been forced to watch several times.

Jessica bit the corner of her bottom lip, while forming a small smile, something that Sirius found incredibly sexy.

"Well if you're my Captain Jack Sparrow, then who does that make me?" she asked softly, the corner of her lip still trapped between her teeth.

"My Jessica," he said huskily, placing his hand on her cheek, caressing it slowly, which made a sigh come from her.

He lowered his face to hers, and placed his lips on hers once more, this time with more vigor.

Jessica kissed him back with the same fervor, she felt herself being rolled onto her back, as the dark-haired man lay across her.

She nibbled on his lower lip gently, earning a growl of approval from the man above her.

Sirius completely lost himself in the kiss, once again, this time the fear of being caught far from his mind, and pleasure in its place.

He kissed down the column of her neck, making her moan in gratitude, his hand slipped slowly up her shirt, tracing small patterns on her stomach, side, and back.

Sirius' tongue traveled back up the length of her neck, and he kissed her lips again with zeal.

Jessica felt her stomach drop as his tongue touched her body, and she eagerly returned his kiss, hoping it would never end.

Suddenly the reality of his actions became known in his mind, and the logical side of his brain ('Yeah, you forgot about me, didn't you?), something that was rarely heeded, made itself heard.

'You need to stop, right now, before this goes any further,' his brain shouted at him. 'You're already taking advantage of her vulnerability...using a spell to take advantage of her,' he reprimanded himself.

Sirius immediately felt guilt seep into his heart as those thoughts ran through his mind. He pulled back reluctantly, making Jessica whimper in disappointment, almost snapping his will-power in two.

He smiled sadly down at the dazed looking woman in his arms, hoping that one day he would be able to kiss her again in that manner, with no form of coercion. He rolled onto his back placing a small amount of distance between the two.

Jessica was about to begin to protest his actions, but she was silenced with a sweet and simple kiss, and pulled back into his arms possessively.

Sirius placed a soft kiss onto her temple, watching as she drifted off into a peaceful sleep.

He intended to watch her sleep, but the warmth from her body so close to his, and the warmth from his heart (because she was finally in his arms), lulled him into a peaceful sleep.

Sirius woke to the feel of the sunlight streaming through the blinds, his arms still wrapped tightly around Jessica's sleeping form.

He kept his eyes closed, but tightened his grip on the unconscious female, trying to force the moment to last a tiny bit longer.

He felt her shift slightly, and cringed at the thought of being caught…again, sighing in disappointment; he transformed into Padfoot, and waited for her to regain consciousness.

He knew that one day he would be able to watch her sleep and wake up without worrying about being caught out of his animagus form, and he was silently counting the days.

Jessica felt the sunlight shining on her face; she stretched her body out with a loud moan and a big smile on her face. Normally, she was not a morning person, but the dream she had last night gave her a refreshing feeling, one she had never felt.

"Good morning," she said cheerfully to her dog that was lounging peacefully on the bed with her, and bounced out of the bed, walking with vigor towards the kitchen.

Sirius smiled knowing that he was the reason was the reason that Jessica was so happy.

Halfway through the afternoon, Jessica, sat down, with Sirius curled up by her side, and watched Pirates of the Caribbean for the umpteenth time, smiling and fighting the urge to squeal with delight every time Captain Jack Sparrow came on the screen, and failing miserably each time.

Jessica closed her eyes, and went to sleep, hoping that her mystery man would appear again that evening.

Sirius watched Jessica closely, making sure she was indeed asleep. He transformed into his usual appearance and instantaneously cast the Dream Illusion spell on her once again.

He knew it was wrong, but he couldn't resist the urge to hold and kiss her once again. She was a drug, this was a drug, he swore to it, but he had already had a taste, and he would be damned if he denied himself the sweet relief of her lips, skin, and scent, just because it went against a few petty morals.

He knew she'd be pissed later, but he was determined to make it up to her, and he knew just the way to, when the problem arose.

Sirius began to softly stroke her hair, and placed light kisses on her eyes, cheeks, and finally on her pleasantly plump lips.

Jessica slowly began to regain awareness, and began to kiss him slowly back.

Sirius groaned in the back of his throat as he felt her lips move against his. He began to kiss her with passion while moving his body over hers, and locking her arms above her head with one of his strong hands.

Jessica moaned in delight as he positioned himself above her, blissfully happy that he had returned to her once again.

Reluctantly Sirius removed his mouth from hers, and looked down on her beautiful face. He couldn't believe that mere months ago he had called her simply pretty, now he knew he was a fool. She was beautiful, gorgeous even, and if no one else saw this, it was their problem, not his.

The way her deep chocolate eyes lit with happiness when she looked at him, all but made him putty in her hands, it had been a long time that a woman had looked at him like that.

Sirius dipped his head back down to hers, and kissed her once more with fire. He smiled into the kiss as he felt Jessica's body completely relax underneath his.

His lips began to slowly travel down her face and down to her neck. He sucked incessantly on her neck, leaving a red blotch on her neck, marking her as his territory.

Sirius then moved back to her lips, while releasing her hands from his grip. Jessica moved her hands into his hair, as she did the night before, and massaged his head stimulatingly.

Sirius let out a gluttonous moan as her hand worked through his hair and her lips moved passionately against his. He moved his hands to her stomach, pushing her shirt up her caramel stomach, rubbing his hands up the entire length continuously, while removing his lips from hers, and placing a small circle of kisses around her belly-button.

Sirius then began to suck on the skin right beneath her belly-button, making another mark of ownership on her body.

Jessica pulled his head gently back to hers and kissed him sweetly on the lips, making Sirius melt for the second time that evening.
