I'm not JKR
So, today was the wonderful Christmas at the "Noble and Most Ancient House of Black". God, I hate my family. I didn't even want to come home, but my dear parents made me. Of course, we basked in the glory of house elf abuse and a side of Voldemort chat.
I did prank Bella and get away with it, though. She thought that Kreacher had dropped a vat of soup on her head. Yeah, that was me. I felt sorry for Kreacher after his punishment, though. Nothing should have to undergo that. Merlin. I can't stand this life. I just want to go away, be free, not be expected to do horrible things. Of course, I would never do them, but the pressure is, ughh!
We ate soup and turkey and all that, and then we had gifts. I got a jar of warthog powder and nothing else from my family. Not that I want any of their stupid shit. I promptly stuck it in a cabinet to rot.
"Model child" Bellatrix was showered with all sorts of dark items and things to appease her vanity. Of course, Narcissa was solely given all the stupid clothes and "beauty" products that she could ever need to cover up her ugly heart and a similar but much more practical version of Narcissa's gifts was given to Andromeda. I suppose the family hasn't found out about her Muggle-born boyfriend, Ted Tonks, yet. Otherwise, she'd get a taste of the Cruciatus.
On the bright side, I got a wicked new beater's bat from Prongs and Moony got me my favorite chocolate's. Wormy got me a new quill. I even got this journal from Evans and a pack of Drooble's from Marlene.
I saw them all whispering right before I left, so I kind of suspect that they were collaborating on the gift thing.
Crash!
Sirius stood up quickly, setting down his quill. "What the-" he opened the door and hurried down the stairs.
He turned the corner to hear voices arguing. Sirius pushed open the door to the kitchen and caught sight of a familiar head of red hair.
"Mudbloods in my house! Trespassing! Get out, out!" his mother shrieked.
"I only came to give Sirius his Christmas gift, God!" Lily said.
"You filthy Muggle with your filthy Muggle curses!"
"I don't care what insult you throw at me, you abominable woman! Sirius!" Lily Evans's green eyes lit up when she saw Sirius.
"I see you've met my mother. I suppose there isn't a need to introduce you," Sirius said, nodding towards the woman in question.
"Sirius, who is this girl! I will not have mudbloods traversing this house! Especially under my nose!" Walburga yelled.
Sirius shook his head and grabbed Lily's arm, hauling her out of the kitchen and up the stairs.
"Sirius Black, you get back down here right now!" Walburga screamed, but she didn't go after them and Sirius simply ignored her.
"Merlin, Sirius. I'm so sorry. I had no clue she would blow up like that." Lily apologized.
"Yeah, well, a little warning might have been good," Sirius snapped, throwing himself down on his bed. Lily sat down next to him.
"I came to rescue you," she said. "If you want me to."
"How does that work out?" Sirius asked.
"Well, I asked my parents if I could have a friend come and stay a couple of days. They said sure, so come on."
"I don't know."
"Do you actually want to stay here?" Lily asked incredulously.
"No! I just don't want to impose. I'll just go to Prongs' or Remus's."
"You're coming with me, Black. Now get your clothes, we're going." Lily grabbed her wand. "Or I'm packing for you."
Sirius put up his hands in surrender. "No, no, I'll pack. He waved his wand and clothes folded themselves into a small bag. When it was finished, he stood.
"Let's go face the raging storm downstairs." Lily followed Sirius down the stairs and back to the kitchen. Now, there was only one person in there.
"Andromeda," Sirius said. Andromeda looked up and smiled.
"Hey Siri. You going?"
"Yeah. Will you be alright?"
"I'll be fine. I'm planning to go back to Hogwarts early." Andromeda sent a look at Sirius that he understood perfectly. She wanted to get away from the Black madness, also (and she wanted to see her boyfriend, Ted).
"Okay, I'll be at Lily's for the next couple of days. Bye, Andy." Sirius hugged her and then he and Lily flooed to her house.
I had so much fun at Lily's. The look on her sister Petunia's face when she saw me was hilarious. Lily and I ended up spending the three days I was there eating lots of food, watching movies (eek!), and laughing.
The most memorable time was when her family and I were watching M*A*S*H (which is an amazing Muggle TV show), and we started getting a little silly. We started being dramatic and bickering and I could tell from the looks on her family's faces that they didn't believe that we weren't dating.
Which was awkward. Lily's mom kept sending us knowing glances for the first two days until I told her that she was taken by James. Lily smacked me upside the head and then her mom stopped with the glances.
Despite that, I love Lily's parents so much. They were like James's parents except toned down. And Lily's mum made the best pot roast ever.
"Are you done writing in your diary yet, Black?"
"Merlin, Lily, how many times do I have to tell you it isn't a diary? Prongs, get her out of here."
"Hey, James, stop it! I hate flying, nooo."
And they're gone. Prongs should probably not drag her out to play Quidditch if he wants to date her, though.
I'm staying at James's now with Moony and Pete and Lily (who grudgingly decided to stay for a couple days after being urged by all of us). I can tell that she's enjoying herself, even though she tries to hide it.
"Padfoot! Get out here! I need you to teach Lily how to fly!"
"I know how to fly, Potter. I just don't think brooms are safe!"
"We fly millions of games on these things, they are fine!"
"Black!"
"Padfoot!"
"Sirius!"
"I'm coming, Lily, James, Remus. No worries, I'm coming." Sirius sighed and shut his book, smiling. His friends really were something.
A/N: Okay, none of these drabbles are that great because I keep writing them late at night and not editing them much, but hopefully they are decent. Anyway, this one is a little different, what with the Diary/actual story format, but I thought that this is a memory room and this is a memory sort preserved in Sirius's writing (not like Voldy's diary, though!). Also, there has been a lot of Lily/Sirius friendship, but what can I say? They have the best friendship! I will get Jily in here soon, though. Enjoy and Review!
