"I know more about you Black."

"No you don't."

"Oh yes I do."

"No you don't."

"Don't try to deny that." Moria countered easily as she sat next to Sirius, a teasing grin on her face.

"Oh please…I know more about my girlfriend than you do about me." Sirius replied to Moria looking at her humorously.

"Want to make a bet?" she asked. He looked up from his textbook, and grinning nodded.

"Name five." He said, closing his textbook looking at her. She grinned.

"One. All in all you skip about 4 classes every year, claiming you are sick with from either a hex or a muggle-born sickness. Two. You enjoy using that dog form to get girls to come up and pet you. Three. You had your first snog was in your third year with Bathilda Sloper from Ravenclaw. Four, your first Hogsmeade adventure nearly turned disastrous when you confused a Slytherin for an ogre and she tried to hex you. And five. Your first attempt at shagging was with Nerida Pickering in the broom closest after a Quidditch practice in the beginning of last year." She said. "A few weeks later you actually managed your first shagging."

"How the bloody hell do you know about the last one?"

"Remember someone accidentally walked in, breaking that mood? It wasn't me, but McLaren had to explain to me why I shouldn't go to the broom closet. The second part of that I sort of figured out when I was down in the common room earlier and saw Pickering sneaking out of the boy's dorm." She responded and he covered his eyes with his hand. She grinned and kissed his cheek.

"Aw…is Mr. Black embarrassed?" she joked and he looked at her, now unable to hold back a sheepish grin.

"Does Ms. Prescott forgive me?" he asked. She smiled and kissed him on the cheek again.

"What do you think?" she asked him cocking her head to the side with an eyebrow raised.

"I think she forgives me." He joked and she laughed resting her head on his shoulder.

"Yes she does." Moria said, talking about Bellatrix. He nodded.

"Alright so back to Transfiguration homework." She said reopening the book and he groaned.

"Can't we just snog?" he complained. She rolled her eyes.

"I swear, Sirius. Snogging won't get you a good score for your Transfiguration N.E.W.T exam. You just passed the O.W.L exam last year."

"Well I'm having one of the best students of transfiguration tutoring me. I think one snog wouldn't hurt." He pleaded and she rolled her eyes.

"Sirius-"she began to say but was cut off as he kissed her. She closed her eyes and almost responded, relaxing and returning the kiss. Slowly they withdrew from each other.

"Okay…wow…" she murmured softly.

"Yeah." He replied resting his forehead on hers. She smiled softly.

"Alright you randy git. Let's finish this chapter and then get back to the castle before it gets dark and get some dinner." She stated. He chuckled then agreed, opening the book. And as they read, her explaining every now and then, she sat next to him resting her head on his shoulder and for once it was peaceful.

The first few months had been hectic like always. The sixth year teachers had delved right into their lectures, giving their students a large amount of notes. Currently Moria, Lily, and Alice were studying their potions notes.

"Geez. Did the potions get darker as we continue or is it just me?" Alice huffed out looking at a potion that Slughorn had discussed that day.

"Yup. Isn't that right, Moria?" Lily asked. When no response came she looked up and saw Moria was just gazing at her notes but not really looking at what is written. "Moria!" she called out a bit louder and Moria snapped upright.

"Wha-?" she asked and Lily smirked.

"You were daydreaming…again." Alice stated grinning. "Of a boy?" Moria rolled her eyes at the question

"In your dreams." She retorted. "Go bug Lily about JAMES." She replied. Lily's head snapped up, glaring over at Moria, who responded with a grin.

"So, what are you two doing together anyways?" Alice asked. Lily coughed roughly as though trying to clear her throat before glancing up at the clock.

"Bloody hell we better head to bed." Lily stated quickly. Moria smirked, glancing at Alice who also looked amused before they nodded and gathered their items, heading up to their room. As they went to their bedroom ready to let the activity of their day die down, in the Slytherin tower the energy was different.

"So Lucius, are you ready to join us?"

"You know I am Narcissa. Anything to purge the wizard world of those disgusting Mudbloods." He hissed out. She nodded and then took hold of her boyfriend's hand walking him up the tower. He smirked at the thought of ridding the world of those disgusting mudbloods.

He couldn't wait.

Moria groaned as she looked at another letter that had been handed to her.

"Lily burn this." She groaned out.

"What is it?" Lily asked, craning her neck over to try and see

"A letter from that Chamberlain-dick." She stated and the girls groaned loudly in unison, and apparently in agreement. James and Sirius looked at the girls in confusion.

"Who's Chamberlain?"

"Dane Chamberlain. Slytherin." Moria explained. Sirius had a feeling he wasn't going to like this Chamberlain bloke.

"He's an absolute git. Worse than any git I've met." Lily stated casually glancing at James. Moria sighed in apparent agreement.

"He has this resolution that he wants to shag at least every girl at Hogwarts. He's done pretty well with the Slytherin girls, except for a few."

"Looks like he's going for the Gryffindor girls now." Alice stated in annoyance.

"And trying to get the 'Ice-Queen of Gryffindor' first." Moria groaned out flapping the letter. "Which isn't going to happen. Anyway, like I said, someone burn this." She asked. Sirius grabbed the letter examining it. Moria frowned. Later Sirius sat in the common room, the rest of the room having been empty for a little bit.

"This seat taken?" a voice softly said and he looked up to see Moria standing there. He nodded and she sat down next to him. For several minutes there was silence.

"Sirius, are you alright? You've been really quiet since breakfast." Moria asked.

"I can't be quiet every now and then?"

"Well you're allowed to. But for you well…some people wouldn't consider it natural." She responded with a slight chuckle, which he didn't return. "Is this about the note that Chamberlain sent me?" she asked and saw his shoulders stiffen and she sighed.

"Sirius I don't want you to worry about that. I have no desire to try and go on a date with him. From what some of the girls have said he's an absolute self-absorbed git on dates." She stated and he sighed.

"I know…but I still don't have to like it." He stated.

"I doubted you would like it."

"I read the letter. Sorry about that."

"Why does it matter if you read it? I told people to burn it. Not like I wanted to see it." Moria responded. "Just curious…how bad was it?"

"Bad. It sounded disgusting. He made it seem polite but there were hidden innuendos in the words he said." He finally said. "Maybe I should hex him. Might make me feel better." He stated. She made a sound that sounded like a mixture of a laugh and a groan.

"Sirius."

"What?" He said with a smile on his face. She rolled her eyes and kissed him softly on the lips, him returned it eagerly. When she finally moved, he groaned in annoyance.

"Relax about Chamberlain, Sirius. I have no desire to go date him or even snog him." She stated and he grinned softly.

"Fine Ms. Prescott."

"Fine Mr. Black." She said and laughed softly. She rested her head on his shoulder. She closed her eyes on how his warmth seemed so right. She felt the three words rest on the tip of her tongue, those three simple words that begged to be released, but she swallowed them away. She couldn't risk saying them now…she looked up at him and smiled softly at his now relaxed nature.

It could wait. It could always wait.
