A day later Madame Pomfrey let them go from the Hospital wing. The boys were there to walk with them back just in case they were needed. Except Regulus who hasn't been in the hospital wing since they woke. Elise sighed and leaned on James's arm. He was always like a brother to her; he's how she met Lily Olivia and Victorie in the first place.

"What's wrong Eli?" He moved his arm around her slowing down so they brought up the rear of the group.

"Nothing, really just nothing" She shook her head.

"Now don't you lie to me missy" He squeezed her shoulder gently.

Elise sighed, "I was just wondering about Regulus, I thought he liked me but he kind of acted weird and just left after I told him Zabini wants me as his promised.

"Oh" James nods. "Maybe he's just trying to get his head back on, that's something big to spring on him" James comforted her.

Maybe" Elise shrugged.

"Don't worry about it too much munchkin" James squeezed her softly.

"I'm not that tiny" she pouted.

Yes you are, but its ok you're only a fourth year." James smiled.

"Don't remind me I get a year here alone" She sighed.

"We'll visit you and write constantly, and you know that" he poked her nose.

"I know" she nodded.

"What's he trying to pull?" Lily looked over at the two.

"What are you talking about Lils?"

"James, why is he all buddy buddy with Elise."

Are you forgetting her being attacked second year and James saving her?"

Lily turned red "I did, I completely forgot. It was the Slytherins right?"

They nodded, "it wasn't the best day for our little buddy."

They finished their walk a little more solemn than usual.

Olivia kept tossing and turning, she couldn't sleep, and it was too cold how was she expected to sleep when it was so cold? So she laid there staring out the window waiting for the first rays of the sun rise. Laying there she thought of her life, what she might do with it all, where she could end up. She started thinking of Sirius, he was kind of like her brother, and she cared for him almost as much as she cared for James and Annabeth.

She wasn't even jealous of his girlfriends. They just weren't right for him; no one will be good enough! The right girl for him wouldn't use him for sex, instead she would bring out the romantic side in him that he hides away. He would protect her with his life, because even if she can take care of herself he wants to know that she's ok. She wouldn't be a bimbo, and definitely not a prude! But she's equally comfortable and private about the bedroom. Classy, but with a mean streak she can easily knock him down a peg or two when needed.

Olivia frowned realizing that she inadvertently described herself when she thought of someone who would be a good candidate. She shook her head and quickly cleared her mind looking at the sun rise. When it was half way up she went and took a steaming hot shower, doing everything to keep her mind off Sirius.

"Olive! Hurry up; you have been in there over an hour!" Lily banged on the door.

"Sorry Lil be right out," Olivia forgot her thoughts and rushed out the shower.

"Took you long enough." She grumbled and went in to the shower.

Olivia laughed and started on her hair; she charmed it straight and the tips red and orange then curled her bangs to roll off to the side.

She wore something out of her usual comfort zone. A tight fitting dress with red lace decorating the top, to finish her outfit off she wore red stilettos and a mask that was made of fire.

She looked over at lily and smiled, "The flowers look great Hun."

"Why thank you!" Lily smiled securing her green and brown asymmetrical dress. The sleeve on one side seemed like vines curling down her arm.

She charmed her feet to be safe without any shoes or other protection and finished it all off with her powers surrounding her eyes with leaves and flowers. She looked like a nymph.

"VICTORIE GET IN THE SHOWER!" Elise shook the girl under her blankets, her hair bouncing with light gray in her dark locks.

"Sleep" She groaned.

"Fine, have it your way." Elise smirked and lifted her up with her powers and sent her straight in the shower.

"HATE YOU!" was called out before they heard the shower going.

The girls laughed and helped Elise get ready. Elise wore a gray chiffon dress that blew in the slightest of breezes with a low cut back. Lily helped her charm an illusion of silver wings sprouting from her back. While, Olivia helped her put on her clear sandals. Elise hovered there and masked her face with clouds. They all grinned and Victorie dragged herself out the bathroom.

"Do what you will." She yawned and let them dress her up.

They put on a blue goddess like dress with a swoop neck and high slits up each side of the dress. They pulled her hair back into long flowing curls down her back. She wore blue flats while water crossed and swirled around her eyes.

They all looked at each other and laughed.

"We look great!" Lily grinned, her eyes turning green.

"We're going to be distractions," Olivia smirked, her eyes red.

"This shall be fun." Victorie yawned, her eyes Blue.

"Well let's get this started!" Elise turned to the door eyes gray.

Elise floated, Victorie glided, Olivia stalked and Lily danced to the common room.

The marauders who just stole the attention of the common room with their outfits, just loss the attention as the girls came in. Elise waved to the common room passing by the four boys in suits. Victorie smiled at Remus in his black suit with a blue tie and black and blue fedora. Remus gulped softly and held his arm out leaving with her.

"Wow…" Sirius looked Olivia up and down she raised an eyebrow at him.

"You clean up nicely." She smirked and grabbed him by his red tie and made him follow her out.

Lily moved right past James who followed her like he was entranced.

"Women." Peter rolled his eyes and followed the group out.

At breakfast they sat in pairs almost as if they planned to match.

"Now I'm willing to share my color, but what are you supposed to be?" Olivia laughed looking at Sirius.

"We're the marauders," he shrugged. "What about you?"

"The elements," she winked and laughed.

They were all in a good mood for the time being and soon left to their classes for the day.

Later

Elise was floating down the hall when she was grabbed and pressed into the wall. She looked up to see Zabini leering at her.

"Must we keep meeting like this?" she whispered.

"You deserve to pay for what you did last time you know that?"

"I'm sorry?" she rolled her eyes.

"You better be, now be a good girl and give me a kiss" he stole a kiss from her before she had a chance to even think about what the brute said.

'Help! Terra fuego agua!' – Elise called for them through their connection.

The girls were in the library and were immediately gone, transporting with their elements straight to her. Lily grabbed him around the throat with a vine and slammed him into the other wall before rushing to Elise with Victorie. Olivia had flames up her arms her eyes blazing as she attacked him.

"Don't you dare come near her again, if I hear about you touching her EVER, you will not live to tell the tale. I promise you I will rip you lib from lib and roast you slowly so you smell your burning flesh till I finally decide to kill you for good." She threatened with each scorching blow. Victorie stopped her barricading him in water and sending him to the hospital wing.

"You made your point now calm down." she tells her with a soft voice.

Olivia put her fire away but was still furious, "Is Elise ok?"

"Yeah I'm-"

"What's going on?" The marauders rushed over, after hearing the fighting.

"N-nothing," Elise shook her head but sniffled and rushed into James's arms. He held her tight and Remus talked to the other two.

Sirius frowned and went over to Olivia. "Are you ok?"

"No!" Olivia snapped then sighed. Sirius pulled her into a hug.

"Relax, everyone's ok now, just take a deep breath and relax." He whispered in her ear. Olivia held on to him tightly and hid her head in his neck. "shh," he kissed her head gently. Olivia slowly relaxed against him.

"Better?" He made her look at him.

"Yeah thanks." She nodded and put her head to his and looked in his eyes.

Sirius watched her eyes turn back to normal, "It's no problem," he whispered trying hard not to kiss her at the moment.

"I'd do the same for you," she muttered and licked her lips.

"Yeah." Sirius nods leaning closer.

"C-cause we're friends," she gulped slightly as he got closer to kissing her.

"Yeah, Friends," almost there he thought to himself before he finally closed the space and kissed her gently.

Olivia kissed him back before she gasped and pulled away from him. "T-thanks for calming me Sirius." and quickly moved away from him to the girls.

"Everyone ok?" Olivia pretended that they didn't all see that.

"Olive you just-"James was cut off from the class bell.

"Oh look time for class!" Olivia rushed away and so did Sirius before any of them could say anything to the two.

"Did that just happen?"

"Yeah" they all nod before they scatter to go to classes.

After all the classes were over the girls were outside enjoying the elements.

Sirius let out a breath seeing Olivia lying in the sun and made his way over to her.

"So liv that was some kiss earlier," Victorie smirked over at her with her feet soaking in the water.

Olivia groaned and covered her face, "I don't want to talk about it."

Sirius hid in the trees next to them and listened in.

"Oh come on if there was any more passion there sparks would have flown!" Lily laughed.

"It definitely made me forget about the jerk kissing me." Elise giggled.

"STOP IT! I didn't mean to kiss him! I didn't want to kiss him! I was just caught up in the moment!" Olivia snapped at them.

"It's ok if you like him love," Lily frowned.

"Yeah, just like me and Remus or how Lily loves James!" Victorie laughed when Lily glared at her.

"I don't like him though not even a little bit, I just got out of a relationship for merlin's sake, and he's like my brother, it would be like falling for James… EW!" She sat up and shiver in disgust.

Elise giggled, "I think you're just making yourself believe that."

Sirius couldn't hear anymore and rushed away. I'm an idiot, a fucking moron. Of course she doesn't want me, why the hell would she want me… Sirius shook his head.

"Come with me," He grabbed a girl who was only too eager to follow him and even more eager to let him have his way with her in the locker rooms.

"I have to believe that, it's so cliché for me to fall for my best friend. I can't lie, I wanted him to kiss me earlier, I kissed him back then I freaked, I spent all night thinking about him." Olivia shook her head and sniffled.

"Would falling for him really be the worst thing in the world?" they cuddled up with her.

"I don't know, I'm so confused, I just want to believe that it's wrong so I can just ignore everything." she held on to them.

"Ok sweet heart, ok," they sat there holding her as she cried silently too overwhelmed to do much else.

Later James went out to the pitch to get some personal practice. That's when he saw the girl leaving the locker room avoiding James's questioning look.

James walked into the locker room to see Sirius half dressed with fire whiskey and a cigarette in hand. James sighed and sat next to him and took the bottle from him taking a swing.

"Is this from my stash or yours?" he passed back the bottle and took the cigarette taking a drag and holding it.

"Mine." Sirius muttered.

"So, who was the girl?" James sighed and Sirius just shrugged. "This is about the kiss?"

"I really don't want to talk about it James." he closed his eyes and shook his head.

"You like Olivia, that's ok mate, but why mess around with some random chick?"

Sirius shook his head "It's more than like jam. She makes me crazy but in the best way. I can imagine being with her for the rest of my life and that scares me so much. Worst of all she doesn't want to be with me I'm just her fucking brother." he took a swing of the whiskey.

"You don't know that for sure bro." James tried reassuring him.

"I heard her say it; she didn't want to actually kiss me. She's disgusted with the thought of dating Me." he sniffled and whipped his eyes quickly. "I can't do this, I can't let her get to my head," he sighed.

James frowned and just hugged his shoulders.

"I'm sorry mate." Was all James could say as he sat there and got drunk with his friend.
