"I'm bored." James whined, lounging upside down on his four-poster bed "And hungry…" His three friends ignored him.

Remus was silently reading a book on Defense Against the Dark Arts, Peter was stuffing his face with Bertie Bots Every Flavored Beans and Sirius was using a spell to burn designs, pictures and scrawls of "Sirius Black" on the dormitory ceiling.

It was their first Saturday back at school and it seemed like they had already run out of things to do.

"Go do your head boy duties." Suggested Lupin casually flipping a page of his book.

"Nooo!" Groaned James. He flipped over onto his stomach and stared at Sirius, "Padfoot…"

"Yeah?" Sirius was apprehensive.

"Fetch me some food."

"No!" Said Sirius half laughing.

"Please!"

"It's eleven o'clock. I'd get thrown in detention!"

"Lost your nerve, have you?" Asked James.

"Says the one who's is asking me to go, rather then going himself." Retorted Sirius with an extra flourish of his wand to finish off the artistic phrase that he had spent the last ten minutes perfecting: Once You Go Black You Never Go Back.

"Please!—I can't move."

"Sure you can't…"

"Oh just go Sirius!" Snapped Lupin, "Or else he'll never shut up."

"Fine." Groaned Sirius, flinging him self off the mattress and glaring at James, "You owe me Prongs, you selfish bastard." James just grinned.

Sirius swiftly ran through the corridors, all his senses heightened by the adrenalin coursing through his veins. He took the stairs, his feet moving so quickly that the next thing he knew he was at the bottom of all the flights. He saw the Great Hall's doors and sprinted past them, down more stairs.

He entered the corridor of food, the familiar portraits of meals and fruit lining the walls. He staggered down it a ways until he found the one he was looking for: the bowl of fruit with the giggling pear.

He tickled it, the motion so familiar to him by now that in a way it didn't feel strange at all. The picture swung open and suddenly music filled his ears. A song that he had often heard playing on the muggle radio was playing softly in the kitchen.

Sirius narrowed his eyes, looking in. For once there were no house elves, and the kitchen seemed empty, but there was definitely someone there.

Sirius stepped into the room, hiding in the shadows as he squinted into the dim lights of the kitchen.

"And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand." A girl's voice sang, her voice light and airy as a figure in an apron appeared holding a tray of cupcakes in their hands. She was singing along with the song playing faintly in the background.

She looked familiar, he knew this girl he was almost certain that he had seen her before. She was slender and tall and was wearing muggle clothes under her apron, he finally took in her wild curly hair and that's when it hit him.

This was Auden Kingston, one of Lily Evans friends. He felt a jolt in the pit of his stomach as he watched her. She was now frosting cupcakes with light pink icing, all the while singing in her mesmerizing voice, "Piano man makes his stand, in the auditorium…"

For a second he thought about talking to her, to interrupt her work. But she seemed so focused, so carful; it seemed so cruel. He made up his mind that he should go and was about to turn around and leave, when a instrumental break broke out in the song and the room filled with the intense sounds of drums and guitars. Auden spun around on her toes, banging her head to the music. "But oh how it feels so real, lying here with no one near. Only you and you can hear me! When I say softly… slowly!"

Sirius grinned, how had he ever forgotten this girl? That's when he took his leave, busy thinking about how he was going to get her interested in him—because she sure wasn't now.

And that's when he tripped, falling face first down to the marble floors. Luckily Sirius stuck his hands out to prevent too much damage, but he was now panicking.

"Who's there?! Show yourself!" Auden called from the kitchen, her tone sounding confident but slightly frightened. Sirius scrambled to his feet and sprinted as fast as he could back up the hall and didn't stop until he had reached the portrait of the fat lady and was safely in the boy's dormitory again.

"Hey you're back! Wait, where's my food?" Asked James disappointedly.

"Sorry…" Sirius panted, "Couldn't get it… no elves… there."

"Are you okay?" Asked Remus concerned, "I think you need to sit down."

Sirius waved his hand, "No need."

"Wait—what were you saying about the elves not being in the kitchens?" Asked James.

"No one was there except that Auden Kingston girl." Sirius explained.

"What?! What was she doing there?"

"Midnight baking I guess." Shrugged Sirius. "But I don't care what she was doing there, I'm going to use this, to my advantage."

The very next Monday, when James and Sirius strode in to Charms class, Sirius nodded his head towards Kingston who was sitting by herself reading a book at the front of the class, possibly waiting for Lily—who had not yet turned up.

"Save me a seat Prongs, I have something to do first."

"Gotcha." James smirked and went to find seats at the back of the class.

Sirius adjusted his collar assertively and strutted over to Auden, who looked up from her book to glance at him, apparently irritated and—by the looks of it—confused.

"Hello Kingston."

"Hello?" She asked looking around as if to see if he was really talking to her.

"Fine day isn't it?" He asked breezily.

"Umm—yeah, I guess so. Black, are you lost? Have you accidently been separated from your arrogant gang and need help finding your way back?"

"You so get me." Sirius sighed sarcastically.

"I try my best—really I do. Now if the reason you're here is to talk about the weather, I honestly couldn't care less, so I suggest you leave."

Sirius' lips twitched, then he sighed and crouched down so that they where both at eye level. "Now why would I do that when I have to tell you something so desperately?"

"Oh, yeah? And what would that be?" Asked Auden, irritated.

Sirius leaned in close to her, whispering in her ear, "But oh how it feels so real, lying here with no one near. Only you and you can hear me…when I say softly… slowly…"

Auden turned bright red her green eyes widening in shock and after sitting completely frozen for a moment, she muttered quietly, "It was you, you where in the kitchens the night before last…"

"Yeah, that's right." Sirius smiled and then leaned in again to hiss, "You've got some nice moves… very, very sexy." And then he got up, not pausing to even look at her as he strode up the aisles to find James, leaving Auden scarlet in the face with the oddest feeling in the bottom of her stomach clutching her book for dear life.
