A/N: Yay, another chapter, and not nearly as long a wait as you had to wait for the other chapter, huh? Enjoy! This is kind of a filler chapter, I suppose, I don't have any ideas at the moment. This is also where I'm introducing my OC, Amelia Stones, as Sirius' girlfriend. By the way, as a spoiler for my own story, or merely a hint: She won't be with Sirius for long.

Chapter 7

A Thing Called Love

Lily smiled when she noticed the closeness between Harry and Sirius and looked behind him to see a woman with long blond hair and brown eyes. She wore a green tank top and just as green skirt. It was summer, after all. She had a pale complexion, and rather skinny figure, but not too skinny.

"Amelia!"

"Hello, Lily!" Amelia said with a bright smile as she hugged her friend. Lily and Amelia had been close friends in the muggle world, and she introduced her to Sirius when they graduated. She was the only one, besides her family, who knew Lily had married into a family of witches and wizards, and was a witch herself. Amelia didn't mind, though. "It's been too long, we need to see each other more often!"

Lily laughed. "Yes, I do suppose you're right. Wont you all come in?"

Harry refused to leave his godfather's side, though he was curious about Amelia. She was dressed like a muggle, and had no magical aura about her. He blinked. Was Sirius dating a muggle?

That would really make his family proud, Harry thought sarcastically as he followed them into the kitchen. Of course, he did remember a few images of Amelia and Sirius, which was odd. It made him wonder what had happened to him, along with the whole world, when he defeated Voldemort. It also made him get a headache.

He sat down in the kitchen table on one of Sirius' sides, Amelia on the other. James sat across from Sirius, and Lily sat beside him on one side, Kyle on his other.

"Well, Lily! You've outdone yourself!" Amelia said brightly as she looked at all of the assorted sweets and food on the table, along with some punch bowls and cans of soda. Tea and coffee were also keeping themselves warm on the counter.

"Oh it was no trouble," Lily smiled. "It keeps me busy. Help yourselves."

As they all starting eating, picking out their favorites, even though the knew everything was delicious, Lily was an amazing cook, Harry grew into a conversation with Sirius about Quidditch and school, and what a greasy git Snape was. Everyone seemed to be having some sort of conversation or other. For once since his arrival in this time, Harry could honestly say that he was enjoying himself. It was how he always pictured his life to be - friends, family, some to love, and someone that loved him. . .

Draco.

His mind tended to drift off towards the blond throughout conversations with Sirius. He didn't think he had talked so much to the man before, not even when he was alive back at his old time. It felt good.

He knew he liked this Draco, he preferred him to the one back home. But did that mean he loved him? As far as he was aware, he wasn't even gay. He had a crush on Cho Chang, after all, and took a girl to the Yule Ball. He did remember liking girls once upon a time.

But the way Draco kissed him, held him, made him feel warm and loved... it just made his heart flutter.

He was sure he felt something for the blond, just not sure what it was.

"Har?"

He looked up into his godfather's eyes, and smiled sheepishly.

"Sorry."

"Got somethin' on your mind, Prongslet?" Sirius asked with a tilt of his head. Thankful that everyone else was too engaged in conversations with each other to listen to them, he nodded.

"Wanna talk about it? It's not mushy or anything, is it?"

Harry laughed. "Sirius!"

"Fine fine, it can be mushy too," Sirius chuckled. "What is it?"

"Well..." he wasn't quite sure where to begin. "I'm not sure."

Sirius raised an eyebrow. "Not sure? About what?"

"Draco."

Now he had Sirius' full attention. "Why, what did he do?"

Harry shook his head. "No, no! Nothing like that. Draco didn't do anything. I've just been...unsure lately. About...my feelings."

Now, this would of been a conversation for possibly a mother and son. But since Harry hardly knew his mother, it felt easier talking to Sirius about it, and Sirius seemed to be listening, something he was grateful for.

"You mean...for him?"

Harry nodded. "But Harry- you've been together for a little over a year now, what made you think this all of a sudden?"

Blinking, Harry tilted his head. 'We've been together that long?' he thought.

"Well...I just kind of woke up today, feeling...changed. Just changed. Like into a completely different person." He wasn't....too far from the truth. He was different from their Harry, after all.

"But do you still feel...anything for Draco?" he asked, looking almost worried, which really made Harry think what Draco's family and his family's relationship was now. Not a soul even so sent a glare Draco's way when they were having their ice cream earlier, and if Sirius was calling Draco by his first name, that must be a good thing.

"I think I do," Harry said softly. Sirius chuckled.

"You only think?"

Harry frowned. "Hey!"

Sirius rolled his eyes. "Alright, alright. So what do you think?"

"Well, earlier...when he held me, I felt ... loved. I felt happy.'' And I noticed just how much different this Draco is than the one I'm used to, Harry thought. "When he kiss-"

"Little too much information there, Har." Harry stuck his tongue out at Sirius.

"Oh hush, like you haven't kissed Amelia a hundred times now?" Harry raised an eyebrow. He didn't think he had seen Sirius blush before.

"T-That's different!" he protested.

"Not really," Harry said. "Anyway. When he... you know...my heart beat faster, faster than it should. I felt my face growing hot. I felt-"

"Very happy?" Sirius asked, and Harry nodded.

Sirius chuckled. "I do believe I recognie your symtpoms, Harry Potter."

"What symptoms?" he asked.

"I believe, they call it, falling in love."

A/N: Haha, am I a master at cliffhangers or what? Though I must say, I have seen better ones! Ones that I can't stand waiting for a next update. *growl, huff* Anyway, as you could tell the main characters in this chapter were Sirius and Harry.

I have a plan for the Sirius/Amelia pairing, but I'm just wondering, when their relationship is over, who do you want him to be with?

Sirius / Snape

Sirius / Remus

Or I could do a

Sirius / Remus / Snape, I kind of already had a Snape / Remus plot in mind, but I can work around it if you'd like something else! I obviously can't place him with Harry, since he's taken, ne? Hehe. ^.^; And if you have any other Sirius/whoever pairings that I haven't listed that are common and possibly easy to write, let me know. Those are just the most popular ones I've seen so far. That and James / Sirius, but he's with Lily and that's not gonna change.

Anyway, enough of my rambling! Review!
