Chapter 8
I was elbow-deep in a pot of dragon dung (50 shades of gross) when Sirius grabbed my waist from behind and whispered in my ear "So, how about our lunch date?" I saw James gag and turned to face Sirius.
"Won't your girlfriend be upset?" I asked him not wanting to get in a cat fight on my second day at a new school. Sirius looked confused. "I think she's talking about a certain blonde who looks like she's going to kill you." Remus said pointing in the direction of Mandy. Remus started laughing. "I don't envy you having to go back there." He said to Sirius slapping him on the back. Sirius looked dumbfounded as he silently walked back to Mandy. After a few moments a shout of "WHO WAS SHE THEN?" Shot through the greenhouse. Everyone's heads turned simultaneously and saw Mandy staring daggers at Sirius. Knowing all eyes were on her Mandy took out her wand and walked towards me. I stood my ground. I wasn't going to be intimidated by anyone. "Listen to me skank." She said, her voice almost a whisper, "if I ever see you anywhere near my boyfriend again you will wish you'd never been born." A deep male voice came from behind me.
"Are you trying to threaten my sister?" I turned and saw James also had his wand out. Where was the responsible adult? I was about to tell James she wasn't worth it when her bitchy tones scratched my ears again. "So you're the new Potter twin? Maybe you should get your brother to take you into the forbidden forest and you can live with the centaurs. They're really friendly here." I turned to face this bitch head-on.
"If you're so convinced that Sirius actually likes you then maybe you should ask your 'boyfriend' why he has a bet on to see whether he can get me to go out with him." The room was silent. Even those who had been pretending to work stopped bothering as Mandy started stuttering and Sirius made his way into the battlefield. "Listen to me Mands. I've been meaning to tell you-"
"Meaning to tell me you were going to cheat on me with this whore?" Mandy exploded. "Well don't worry about it. We're over!" And with that she picked up her bags and left the greenhouse. Sirius watched her retreating figure as she returned to the castle. He then turned to me but before he could say anything my own bag was over my shoulder and I was leaving the greenhouse with James and Remus at my sides. But before I shut the door I heard Sirius shouting "I still love you Kate."
A/N I know that this chapter was short but it's because I'm on holiday so I don't have a proper computer to type this up on and I have to improvise. Also I haven't had the chance to go over this chapter so if it sucks please tell me.
