Chapter 18: Sirius
Sirius's POV
I saw Wicked flying threw the air and landed in the lake. She screamed as I ran full out towards the lake. The one's who did it this was running away. I dove into the icy cold water. Swimming as fast as I could she was sinking fast.
Wicked was under the water so I took a deep breath and dove down to get her. When I had her I swum back to the shore. I laid her down and she wasn't breathing. I started to panic, I wish Remus was here he would know what to do.
Then something clicked and I started to give her CPR. I didn't know how I knew what I was doing. Then she coughed up a lot of water. She looked up and tried to sit up but I put a hand on her shoulder and said.
"Mercy are you ok?"
She didn't say anything but she lifted her hand to my face. Then she flew up and wrapped her arms around me and sobbed into my neck.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry I was a bitch to you."
She kept saying this over and over. She didn't let go of me but I held on to her. She was shaking and it wasn't from the cold. Then I pulled her up in to my arms and I ran back to the castle.
I took her to Madam Pomfrey and when she told me to put her on the bed. But she didn't want to let me go and I didn't want to let her go ether.
Madam Pomfrey had to force a potion down her throat. Then Mercy's skin started to warm up. I had to lay down with her.
She started to fall asleep but she didn't let me go. I didn't try to get her off me. I just laid there starting to fall asleep as while.

The next morning I snuggled up against the person who was laying in my arms. Her arms tighten around me pulling me closer to her. I moved closer to her and she gave a little moan. It was kinda cute and I couldn't help me self but to smile.
She almost died yesterday and now she is making cute sounds in her sleep. If I lost her yesterday I don't know what I would have done.
I know I talked bad about her, behind her back. The look on her eyes as she fought for her life made me rethink what I said. I wouldn't tell anyone about it. I pulled her closer to me, Wicked is my best mate for a girl.
James is my best mate for a guy. I need to protect her no matter what. She was like a sister to me. . .I think? I know I have feeling for her but I don't know what they are yet. She buried her face into my chest whimpering like a pup.
I tighten my hold on her and she rubbed her face into my chest. Then after a while she jerked wake and looked around then at me.
"What happened Sirius?"
She said in a horse voice. I smiled at her.
"You almost died yesterday Wicked. But I saved you."
A tear rolled down her cheek. I moved my hand up to her face to wipe it away. "Thank you so much Sirius. I was so scared that I was going to die. I'm sorry for being a bitch to you. Can you forgive me?"
Her eyes locked onto mine and I could see the fear in them still. It made my heart hurt to see that in her eyes.
"I forgive you only if you forgive me first."
She smiled and nodded. Then she put her face back into my chest. The doors opened so I turned to see who was it. James, Remus and Peter were jogging to our bed. "What happened? You didn't come back to the dorm yesterday and we thought you were in trouble."
James said. He looked at the two of us in each others arms. Then a huge smile creep on to his face.
"Should we leave you two alone?"
He said in a silky voice. I gave him a dirty look.
"Mercy almost died yesterday James. I don't think this is the time for jokes." When I said that his face turn pale.
"What do you mean Patfoot that she almost died yesterday?"
I moved Mercy with me so I could look at them with out getting a cramp in my neck. Then I told them what I saw and how I saved her. They were quit for a long time. When I was done Mercy looked up at every one and said.
"I'm sorry for being a bitch to you guys."
Then buried her face into my chest once more. She shook a little but not so bad. Remus was on her side of the bed so he slowly put a hand on her back. He rubbed it for a while he looked scared that she almost died.
I bet I looked like that yesterday when I thought she was died. We didn't talk much just watch Mercy as she snuggled up against me. She shook most of the time and Madam Pomfrey came and gave her something for the shock she was in.
I tried to get up so she could sleep but she tighten her grip on me so I couldn't go any where. I really need to us the bathroom. Remus thought of something.
"I'm going to try something."
Then he got into the bed on the other side of Mercy. She must have felt him cause she looked over her shoulder with her eyes dropping. Then she smiled a little drunken looking, guess from the potion. She rolled over and snuggled up to him.
I got up and walked to the bathroom but when I came back. Mercy and Remus looked so good with each other arms. For some reason I didn't like Mercy in some one else arms.
They were my mates so nothing was going on between them. I walked back to the bed and Mercy was snoring softly.
"If you want Patfoot I could stay with her and you could go and eat then get some rest?"
Remus said as eh looked up at him. I thought about it, I didn't want to leave her but I was hungry.
"Thanks Moony I be back later."
He nodded and I left. If I figure out who did this to Wicked. I'm going to make them wish they didn't do it. When I walked into the Great Hall James and Peter were sitting at the end of the table. I walked over to them and sat next to James.
"How is she?" I put some food on my plate before answering.
"Madam Pomfrey gave her something for the shock and she fell asleep. Remus is with her so she be ok."
I really hope she be ok. . . .
