Chapter Eight
Thank you for being such a friend to me,
Oh I pray a friend for life,
And have I ever told you how much you mean to me,
Oh you mean so much to me.
Evangeline Potter began to pack her school robes into her bag, which hadn't been worn in over a week. As she put them in the fresh smell of lavender overtook her. Madam Pomfrey must have got the house elves to wash them for her, after all she had spent most of a day running through the woods, they must have been filthy. After spending a week in the Hospital Wing, today she was finally being set free, to begin wrecking havoc in the Slytherins lives again.
Before Evangeline could escape from being caged like an animal, Madame Pomfrey had given her a lecture on how she was hoping to not see Evangeline for at least a month and that she should stay out of trouble. Like that was ever going to happen, Evangeline said to herself. The longest Evangeline had gone without getting a detention was four days, she doubted that she would ever beat that record again, what with Sirius Black by her side twenty four seven. She and Sirius gave the Slytherins more trouble than what the five Maurauders did put together. While Sirius enjoyed using a more long lasting approach, like changing the colour of their hair or making them puke slugs. Evangeline preferred using more immediate effect spells, trip jinxes and her speciality, the bat bogey hex where among her favourites. They both found that hexing the Slytherins when they least expected it, came better results. Which mean that both Sirius and Evangeline ended up doubling over with laughter at their reactions.
She gathered up the last of her things, including the books Madame Pomfrey had given her. The nurse said that Evangeline was very welcome to keep them for longer if she wanted. Evangeline was looking forward to seeing her friends properly again and enjoying the whole day with them. But she was quite intimidated by the fact that the whole of Slytherin now hated her even more than they had before especially after she knocked Bellatrix Black unconscious. This meant that she had to be even more awake and suspicious of her surroundings, just in case they might attack her to avenge Bellatrix.
'Miss Potter? Are you all packed?' asked the nurse, who stood at the door of Evangeline's private quarters.
Evangeline snapped out of her daydream, 'Hmm? Oh, yes I'm all set Madame Pomfrey.' she said and she slung her bag over her shoulder, it was now much lighter considering it only carried some clothes.
'Very well, you may leave when you wish. And please stay out of trouble Miss Potter,' Madame Pomfrey warned, and she walked off down the hallway.
Evangeline slowly followed her out of the room, closing the door behind her. She dandered down the corridor and into the main room of the Hospital Wing. After waving her goodbyes she opened the double doors, and sighed. She was free at last.
She ran down the corridor, and descended down the spiral stair case with ease, she definitely had recovered her energy. After weaving her way down corridor after corridor, taking handy little short cuts on her way, she ran down one set of stairs, and ascended back up another towards Gryffindor Tower. Evangeline quickly said the password 'Nibbling Niffler' before the Fat Lady had a chance to ask her, the portrait swung open, only to reveal and empty Common Room. She looked at the clock, that was placed above the fire, it read 8.10. Everyone was at breakfast, that was the reason for the desolate room. She raced up the spiral stairs towards the dormitories and banged the fifth year girls door open.
After hurling her bag across the room towards her bed, she whirled round on the spot and slammed the door behind her. Running down the stairs again, and through the Common Room, which was still empty and out of the Gryffindor Tower, on her way to the Great Hall, people from her year called out to her, telling her that it was good to have her back. Evangeline smiled in response and carried on her journey towards the Great Hall. She reached the grand oak doors that lead into the majestic hall, with four tables, one for each house. As she began to walk down the aisle, she couldn't help but notice the stares she was receiving from many people. Much to Evangeline's misfortune, the Slytherin table was situated beside the Gryffindor table. Most of the way she kept her eyes firmly on the floor, avoiding anyone's gaze.
Slowly walking down, her eyes still locked with the floor, she stopped, noticing four sets of large feet standing in front of her, blocking her way through. Evangeline gradually raised her view, to see four large burly Slytherins standing in front of her.
Evangeline glared at them, 'Move,' she said stiffly.
But they didn't move, all they did was raise their eyebrows in amusement and grin slyly at her.
'Please Move,' Evangeline said forming the words more clearly with her lips while at the same time trying to keep herself calm.
'What you gonna do Potter? Hex us?' the large bristly haired boy taunted, his arms crossed against his broad chest.
'Don't make me.' Evangeline growled, and began to fumble with her wand that was situated in the back pocket of her jeans.
'Ooh, did I strike a nerve Potter? No need to lose your head over me,' provoked the Slytherin.
Evangeline had had enough, and in a flash her wand was in her hand and she was standing in front of the four Slytherins, looking quite menacing. Suddenly, a firm but gentle grip closed itself around Evangeline's wrist that was held above her shoulder threateningly.
'Evie.' came the voice behind her. Evangeline turned around the firm grip still clasping her wrist, and standing there was Remus Lupin, with a 'you should know better' look on his face. She smiled at him, relieved that he had stopped her from doing something stupid.
'Thanks Remy,' she murmured, and turned round to face the Slytherins again, but this time Remus spoke.
'Get out of the way, or risk being mauled to pieces.' he warned, flashing his sharp teeth at them.
Stunned, the four burly brutes scarpered without taking a second look at Evangeline and her saviour. Evangeline, who was just as stunned as the Slytherins, whisked round and thumped Remus on the arm.
A surprised Remus exclaimed wide eyed at Evangeline's actions, 'What was that for?!'
'You basically informed them that …..' Evangeline lowered her voice, but it still sounded sinister,'You're a werewolf.'
Remus cracked a smile, Evangeline was always so protective of her friends,'They probably already knew anyway, it's more than likely that Snivelly told them.'
Snape found out about Remus' lycanthropy in fourth year, when Sirius thought it would be funny to lead him to the Womping Willow while Remus transformed. It was unfortunate that Remus had managed to escape from the Shrieking Shack, giving Snape, and Sirius for that matter, the biggest scare of their lives. Even though Snivelly had been sworn to secrecy, Evangeline and the rest of the Maurauders did not trust him and they were pretty sure that he had told the majority of the Slytherins.
'But still, don't put yourself in peril like that,' Evangeline retorted as the reached the division of the table where the rest of the Marauders, Lily and Izzy where seated, 'Just think what would happen if one of them told their parents, you would get thrown out. I doubt that Dumbledore would let you go though.' she said as she sat down opposite Sirius and began to pour herself some pumpkin juice.
'Anshel!' he expressed, spitting food everywhere as he realised that Evangeline was sat facing him.
'Don't talk with your mouth full! I've got half eaten food in my goblet and I only just sat down!' Evangeline complained as she studied the revolting morsel that was floating in her pumpkin juice.
Sirius smiled apologetically as he swallowed the remaining foodstuffs that occupied his mouth, 'Sorry, I'm just glad to see you out of the Hospital Wing.'
'I know,' Evangeline smiled,'I'm glad to be out! Madame Pomfrey was doing my head in.' she said as she snatched a sausage from Sirius' plate and stuck it in her mouth, taking a bite off of it.
Sirius gave her a mock glare,'I was about to eat that.'
'It looked delicious and I really couldn't resist it,' teased Evangeline,'Besides, I'm sure you've had more than enough already,' she said with raised eyebrows, eyeing the array of plates around Sirius.
'Jeez, more than enough? He's at least three portions already.' said James, who finished off his glass of pumpkin juice.
Evangeline stared at Sirius, who just smiled sweetly at her and took a bite of some bacon. Evangeline rolled her eyes and started buttering the piece of toast that she had picked up.
'So how're you feeling, Eva?' asked Izzy, who was sitting beside Sirius, watching him stuff yet more food in his mouth.
'You were in there for a week! And just didn't wake up, we were really worried about you. We made sure to come and visit you every day we could.' explicated Lily.
'I feel fine, I'm really happy to be out into the open again,' Evangeline grinned, but her grin turned to a grimace, 'But I'm sort of worried at the same time.'
'Why are you worried?' Remus inquired, a serious but confused look appeared on his face.
'Well, the whole of Slytherin hates me, well more than what they did. I've already had a run in with some of them this morning, goodness knows what will happen if they gang up on me when I'm on my own.' Evangeline explained looking troubled, turning her gaze to her plate in front of her.
Nothing will happen to you.' said Sirius, who had paused from eating and had set his cutlery on the table, 'We'll make sure of that.'
'Exactly, at least one of us will always be with you.' said James, who was looking concerned. His sister was never this worried about anything, especially not Slytherins.
'I know, thanks guys.' Evangeline smiled, a cheeky grin appearing on her face, 'But to be honest, nothing can stop me pranking them. Not when they deserve it, the filthy scumbags.'
Everyone laughed, 'Well said sis,' said James. It looked like the old Evangeline Potter was back.
'Eh, Evangeline?' asked Peter, 'Are you going to drink that?'
Evangeline glanced at Sirius, their eyes lit up,'Oh, sure Peter! Drink away, I wouldn't want it going to waste.' And she smiled an innocently sweet smile.
Peter took the glass of pumpkin juice and downed it in one go, 'They must be using different pumpkins or something, it tastes awfully different from the normal stuff.' he said with a confused look on his face.
Evangeline and Sirius burst out laughing, they couldn't hold it in any longer. They were so loud they received a couple of glares from other students.
_-_-_
The Maurauders, Evangeline, Lily and Izzy all spent the afternoon outside in the sun, beside the lake under their favourite tree. Izzy and Remus were conversed in conversation about the transfiguration essay that they had been assigned two days before, even though this was a thoroughly boring subject to talk about, it was a very heated discussion. Lily was lying flat on her stomach, reading Evangeline's book, Tess of the D'ubervilles. James had fallen asleep against the tree in the shade and Peter was skimming rocks across the surface of the lake.
'Don't be stupid, it doesn't look like a dragon!' said Evangeline who pointed to the sky at an oddly shaped cloud, 'It looks more like a dog, see.'
Sirius sighed, 'No, that one looks like the dog, but that one looks like a dragon.' he said pointing in a completely different direction from Evangeline.
'No, that's the one that looks like the dog,' corrected Evangeline.
'That looks like a broomstick.'
'Does a broomstick have four legs?'
'You're looking at the wrong cloud again!'
'No I'm not!'
'Angel, yes you are. Believe me.' said Sirius,'One is over there, the broomstick,' and he pointed straight above where they were lying,'The other two are there,' and he pointed one way and then another.
'Okay, okay,' Evangeline sighed acceptingly and placed her hands behind her head, 'It's a lovely day isn't it?' she said, closing her eyes, taking in a deep breath of fresh air and smiling to herself.
'Yes, it is isn't it,' Sirius agreed, who was leaning on his side examining Evangeline.
She was in a daydream, the place seemed to look somewhat like Edward Cullen's meadow in the book, Twilight. Soft lush grass, birds singing from the trees and the wind slightly swaying anything in it's path. She was running through the long rushes, skimming her hands along the tops of the long grass, her favourite song playing in the background. Then suddenly, the sky started to get grey, the sun stopped shining. Evangeline's eyes snapped open, a face was very close to hers, she blinked to get a better view.
'Uh, Sirius, you're a bit close to my face,' she said with raised eyebrows. He was so close, she could see every faint freckle dashed across his cheekbones and practically see her reflection in the pupils of his eyes.
'You have very long eyelashes,' he said simply, studying her for a bit longer and then returning to his original lying position right beside her.
For a while, there was silence, James' slumberous snores in the background, 'Do you want to go for a swim?' Sirius suggested out of the blue.
'Is it not a bit cold to go swimming?' Evangeline asked him.
'It's never too cold to go for a swim!' he said excitedly, jumped up to a sitting position and then stood up. He grabbed her hand and pulled her up, 'C'mon, it'll be fun!' he said looking rather like a puppy wanting to go for a walk.
'It'll also be cold,' complained Evangeline who remained rooted to the spot.
Sirius wiggled his eyebrows, a mischievous grin appearing on his face. Evangeline's eyes widened, 'Don't you dare!' she warned.
'What?!' Sirius asked pretending to be shocked. He slowly began to advance on where she was standing, until he was standing right beside her, 'You know I would never do anything to you,' he reassured her, putting his hands on her shoulders and looking her straight in the eyes.
'Sure,' said Evangeline, who seemed unconvinced.
Sirius smiled cheekily, James snored deafeningly loud, catching Evangeline's attention. That was Sirius' chance, he scooped her up and swung her over his shoulder, when she was least suspecting it.
'SIRIUS ORION BLACK, PUT ME DOWN! AND DON'T DARE TAKE ME ANYWHERE NEAR THAT LAKE!' yelled Evangeline, who struggled against his grasp.
'Oh, Angel. What a good suggestion,' Sirius beamed.
'Sirius don't, please. It'll be cold,' pleaded Evangeline.
'I'm sure you'll be perfectly fine,' Sirius replied smugly, as he kept on marching towards the lake that was glinting in the sunlight.
'Then you have left me with no choice,' admitted Evangeline, who began to kick and thump Sirius.
'PUT ME DOWN!' she screamed. After kicking for a short while she finally met her target.
'FUCK, YOU BLASTED IDIOT! THAT BLOODY HURT!' Sirius yelled as Evangeline kicked him in the groin area. Evangeline giggled. But even then, Sirius refused to let go of her. He still kept her hoisted over his shoulder with one hand while reaching down with the other to treat his aching body part.
'That wasn't funny! Don't ever kick me there again!' he said in much discomfort.
'Okay then. But aren't you going to let me down now? Seeing as you're in such pain,' smirked Evangeline, who had ceased trying to injure Sirius any more than what she had.
'Nope, that's given me an even better reason for throwing you in the lake.' he growled in pain.
With great effort, Sirius lifted Evangeline and threw her into the cold lake at the deepest part by the small shingle beach. She screamed and went under the water, after a few seconds she resurfaced. Her clothes soaking wet and her sopping hair covering her face, she reached up her hand parted her hair so she could see, a malicious expression appeared on her face, 'You. Are. Going. To. Die.' she warned Sirius, who was grinning from ear to ear trying to hold back his laughter.
Evangeline smiled an evil grin, and rapidly pulled her wand out from her back pocket and yelled, 'AGUAMENTI!' pointing her wand at Sirius, who was too slow to react and got it blasted right in his face.
Sirius spluttered, and spat out a mouthful of water. His shoulder length wavy locks had now gone flat under the force of the water, and his face was dripping wet. Water was trickling down his chin and onto his neck, his shirt acting like a sponge, soaking it up. 'I hate you.' Sirius coughed informatively.
'Don't worry I hate you even more. You're lucky I only blasted it at your face, I could have soaked all of you, so be grateful.' said Evangeline, who had her arms folded and was still standing in the lake which reached up to her waist.
'Actually, you're right,' agreed Sirius, who walked over to the lake, and stood at the small cliff beside the beach, which dropped about a metre, 'I'm grateful, that I am the strongest guy in fifth year, and was able to finally defeat the menacing Evangeline Potter,' he mocked and flexed his muscles.
'Pfft, you wish,' said James who had awoken and sneaked up on him. With much force he shoved Sirius, who had his back turned, towards the lake. Sirius stumbled and lost his balance at the edge of the cliff and fell in head first.
Evangeline burst out laughing at Sirius' dive into the now ice-cold lake, she herself was beginning to feel the effects of it, shivering occasionally. Sirius was struggling in the water, he panicked and couldn't stand. He went under the water at least three times before he managed to gain his equilibrium. He spluttered and coughed, sea weed had attached itself to his hair and he glared at James, who was doubling over with laughter at the sight before him. By this time, Remus, Izzy, Lily and Peter were now standing on the lakeside, with puzzled looks on their faces.
Evangeline answered their expressions, 'Sirius threw me in and James pushed Sirius off the cliff where he's standing now,' she explained and began to watch Sirius attempt to wade through the water towards her.
'Have a nice swim?' she ridiculed, whilst trying to hold back herself from laughing at Sirius' 'drowned rat' appearance.
'Absolutely bloody fantastic,' Sirius said in a sarcastic tone as he reached her side.
Evangeline smiled a sickly sweet smile, 'Well that's what you get for throwing me in here in the first place.' she said.
Sirius splashed some water at her, 'Oh shut up!' he said.
'Oi!' Evangeline snapped and splashed water over Sirius in return.
Sirius mock glared at her and shoved her so hard that she lost her balance, but before she fell in the water she grabbed onto Sirius' arm, pulling him down with her. They fell into the water with an almighty splash. Laughter erupted around the grounds as Remus, James, Lily, Izzy and Peter watched on as Sirius and Evangeline fought against each other in the freezing cold lake.
_-_-_
'You do realise that it's you're fault that we're both shivering.' complained Evangeline, who had wrapped her arms around her own body in an attempt to keep herself warm.
'I know, I'm sorry.' said Sirius, his teeth chattering, 'I can't believe the guys left us in the lake having a water fight, without telling us exactly what time it was.'
'Great! The feast is already over, and I'm starving.' whined Evangeline as they walked past the Great Hall, which was now empty.
'I feel like a homeless person.' moaned Sirius.
'Huh? A homeless person?'
'Y'know … cold and hungry.'
Evangeline laughed, 'You already are homeless! We Potters just accommodate you!'
'I s'ppose.'
'How about we got to the kitchens? The house elves can get us spare clothes from our dorms and give us food.' Evangeline suggested as they began to walk down the corridor leading towards Charms.
'Good idea, I need some food before I collapse,'
'Don't be over dramatic, you ate enough food this morning to last you two full days!'
'You obviously don't appreciate the many wonders of food like I do.'
'You know, I've always wondered, you eat so much food yet never put on any weight.'
Sirius cracked a smile, 'That's because I play a lot of quidditch, we're always running away from something or other or annoying you, which takes a lot of energy.'
'How does annoying me take a lot of energy?'
'Because, you're quite hard to annoy, you just ignore me. But when I really get on your nerves, your reactions are absolutely hilarious.'
Evangeline rolled her eyes. They eventually approached the portrait of the bowl of fruit, Sirius reached out his hand and tickled the green pear, a high pitched giggle was let out and the portrait swung open to reveal a tunnel with a bright light at the end. They slumbered down the long tunnel, as they reached the end they were blinded by brightness. Blinking a couple of times, Evangeline gained proper view of the kitchen; golden worktops, benches, sinks and stoves lined in rows down the room. Shelf after shelf lined the walls, these filled with every type of dry food imaginable.
As they entered the room, they heard someone speaking in a rather lackadaisical voice, 'Why thank you Pinky, I shall take these back to my office with me if you don't mind, they look rather delectable.'
'No problem, Mr Dumbledore Sir,' replied the house elf named Pinky, 'Pinky is very happy to help.'
Sirius' and Evangeline's eyes widened, 'Crap, it's Dumbledore!' whispered Sirius, 'Let's hide behind there.' Sirius pointed to a shelf standing on it's own away from the wall. They shuffled across the room, and stood silently behind the shelf hoping to be unnoticed by their Headmaster.
'Thank you again Pinky, I shall be on my way now.' said Professor Dumbledore.
Evangeline and Sirius watched him walk towards the shelf in which they were hiding behind, they stood silently until he had passed. Sirius let out a huge sigh.
'Good evening Miss Potter, Mr Black,' said Professor Dumbledore loudly as he walked down the tunnel.
'I can't believe he didn't say anything about us being down here!' exclaimed Evangeline.
'He's a great man, Dumbledore. Has nothing against us troublemakers o' course,' grinned Sirius who had walked from out behind the shelf, Evangeline followed him. As soon as they walked into the brightness of the lights they were swarmed by house elves with large googly eyes, dressed in tea towels and many other strange garment.
'Miss Potter! Mr Black! Can we do anything to help you?' they all asked at once.
'Miss Potter! Take a seat Miss Potter!' said one of the house elves who was pointing at two large armchairs beside a roaring fire. Evangeline was dragged over to the cosy sitting area, where she was forced to sit on the purple armchair closest to the fire.
'Shoo! I shall take care of everything, back to work!' piped up a small voice. It was Penny, who came running up to Evangeline and Sirius, who was sitting at the other side of the coffee table in the large green armchair.
'Miss Potter,' Penny bowed, and turned to face Sirius, 'Mr Black,' and she bowed again, 'Can Penny do anything for such wonderful pupils?' the small elf smiled.
'Actually Penny there is,' said Evangeline, 'Our clothes are a bit soggy, would you be able to get someone to go and fetch us some dry ones?'
'Of course, Miss Potter. We shall get whatever you need,' reassured the house elf.
'Thank you Penny.' said Evangeline, who relaxed back into the armchair.
'Meesy?' called Penny and a small house elf wearing only a yellow t-shirt appeared. 'Meesy, can you go and fetch some clothes for Miss Potter and Mr Black from their dormitories.'
'Meesy would be glad too,' squeaked the house elf and she hurried off.
'Would Miss Potter and Mr Black like anything to eat?' asked Penny, who observed them attentively.
'Could we have some food please Penny? We missed the feast,' said Sirius.
'Of course Mr Black Sir.' said the elf and she rushed off, shouting commands as she went.
After a short time, Evangeline and Sirius were showered with plates of food, big enough to feed ten people, they politely accepted them. Between chewing mouthfuls, Evangeline and Sirius talked, about everything and anything that was brought up, laughing about how Peter had drank Evangeline's decontaminated pumpkin juice that morning and masterminding new pranks to play on the Slytherins in the nest few weeks. Once they had eaten all they could, the elves cleared away every dish without complaint. As Evangeline and Sirius began to converse in conversation again, they were interrupted by the house elf that Penny had sent to get their clothes.
'Miss Potter, Mr Black, here are your clothes,' Meesy panted, handing them each a small pile of clothes.
'Thank you Meesy,' Evangeline said smiling at the small house elf and taking her clothes, 'I'm going to change,' she said to Sirius, and she got up out of the armchair.
'I'll just go over here, and don't look,' she pointed out to Sirius who smiled in return.
'I won't.'
Evangeline stopped and stood behind the large table behind her armchair and set her clothes on top of it. She grabbed the bottom of her still damp t-shirt and pulled it over her head. Even though Sirius had been warned not to look, he couldn't help himself, he just gazed intently at the smooth tanned skin on Evangeline's back, the visible line of her spine running down her back and the visible curves on her waist. He just wanted to run his hand down her soft skin, caressing every curve. Suddenly he realised someone's presence by his armchair, Penny was back and she was watching Evangeline slip on her new, dry and clean t-shirt over her head. He sent a puzzled look in Penny's direction, and returned his full attention to Evangeline, who was pulling down her jeans.
'MR BLACK!' yelped the house elf beside him, 'You must not look! Miss Potter is changing! Cover your eyes!'
'I wasn't looking,' Sirius lied, keeping his gaze anywhere but Evangeline, who was changing in the distance.
'You were, Mr Black. Penny saw you, that was not nice of you.' said the house elf.
'Listen, Penny, please don't tell Angel that I looked. Please,' he pleaded.
Penny won't tell Miss Potter, Mr Black. Penny thinks Miss Potter is very fond of Mr Black,' smiled the house elf enthusiastically.
After a short while of silence, and Sirius staring into the fire, Evangeline returned to the small sitting area, 'I feel so much better now, it was nice to get out of those horrible damp clothes,' she said as she slumped down on the armchair. Sirius did not reply, only stared at her, 'What? Is my t-shirt on inside out or something?' she asked as she checked her t-shirt for any evidence.
'Oh, no your fine -I mean- everything is fine,' Sirius smiled bashfully, and he turned his gaze to the blazing fire again, cursing himself for saying what he did.
'Aren't you going to change?' Evangeline asked, looking at him puzzled by his reactions.
'What- No, I eh, these clothes have dried now, so I don't really see the point,' Sirius said bluntly.
'Oh, okay,' Evangeline said quietly, wondering what on earth was wrong with Sirius, 'Maybe we should go back up to the Common Room,' she suggested, watching Sirius as he continued to stare into the fire.
'Sirius?'
'Yes?'
'Do you want to go back to the Common Room?' Evangeline repeated.
'That's a good idea, let's go.' he said rather quickly, jumped out of the armchair and began to walk towards the tunnel.
'Sirius! Wait!' Evangeline called after him, as she followed him down the tunnel and out of the portrait.
'Sirius!' she yelled, darkness filled the corridor, she could see nothing. Someone grabbed her arm, she gasped and yanked it out of the persons grip.
'Lumos,' the corridor lit up to reveal Sirius standing in front of her, looking concerned about something, 'Angel -'
'Sirius, why-'
'If I ever do anything to you in the future, I'm telling you now that I regret it and … that I am truly sorry.'
'But, Sirius, what might you do to me that you would regret?'
'I can't tell you, it would only be something I would regret doing, if you reacted the wrong way.'
Evangeline remained silent, confused about what Sirius had just said.
'I've gotta go Angel, nature calls. I'll see you in the Common room,' Sirius smiled.
'Yeah... I'll see you in the Common Room I guess.' she replied, returning the smile.
Sirius kissed her cheek hastily, as if he was afraid he might convert it to something else, and rushed off, leaving Evangeline standing in the middle of the corridor, alone and confused.
She didn't hear Sirius mutter to himself as he ran off into the darkness, 'Stupid, stupid idiot! You can't fall in love with your best friend's sister.'
Hope you enjoyed the chapter!! It's my longest yet XD Maybe I'm making Sirius realise his true feelings for Evangeline a bit too early on .. tell me what you think (: REVIEWS!!! I love them, they make me smile a lot. Tori xo
