Chapter 5
(Katy's POV)
She was disgusted with herself. How could she have let Sirius Black get into her head like this? Katy sighed, and poured herself another cup of punch. Frank was off somewhere with some girl, and Sirius was being swarmed by what seemed like the whole 6th year. He looked good, in black pants and a black shirt rolled up to his elbows. His hair was flopping down in front of his face, and the grin he wore on his face was one that made Katy's stomach fill with butterflies.
She looked around, only to find James Potter making his way through the masses of students toward her.
'Hey Katy', James said, picking up a cup of punch for himself
'Hey James'.
'So, you – you look really nice tonight'.
'Thanks, you look nice too.'
There was an awkward silence, both of them unsure of what to say to each other, Katy because she had never held a conversation with James outside of class and James because Sirius hadn't shut up about the girl in front of him for a week.
'So, James, why aren't you out there with Lily?'
'What? Um….you know, she's not my type'. James tried to cover up his shock
'Don't act dumb James, I know you like her, hell, practically the whole year knows you like her.'
James chuckled. 'Am I that obvious?'
'Yeah, just a bit'.
James took a long swig of his punch and looked at Katy calculatingly.
'So, can I ask you a favour'? He asked
'Um, yeah James, what's up?'
'So me and Sirius have this bet that…' James seemed hesitant to go on
'That what?' Katy asked, now she was interested in their conversation
'That he can… win you over…'
'You mean that he can hook up with me?'
'Um, yeah, if that's how you want to put it. I was just wondering if, you know, you could….resist? I mean, I really want to win this bet and…'
'Yeah James. I get what you mean, and it's not problem.
'Thanks Katy!' Said James as he walked away
So she didn't mean anything to him after all, it was just a bet. Just a stupid bet. Just one more girl, one more girl that was stupid enough to fall for Sirius' charms. Just one more. That's all she was to him.
