"The bottom line is that we never fall for the person we're supposed to."- Jodi Picoult
The weeks following the duelling tournament were filled with homework, revision, grief, arguments and stress…lots of stress. With tensions in and out of the castle rising, people were holding their breaths patiently waiting to see whose lives had been snatched away from them, praying to any gods hoping it wasn't their families or people they knew. It did not help that in few weeks the fifth years would be sitting their OWLS and the seventh years their NEWTS. However, through all the grief and stress there was so much light and happiness, amongst the gloom there was glee, where there were tears there were smiles, where there was hate there was love and where there was sadness there was joy.
Quicker than one could blink it was April and April bought many events, last minute preps for exams, career applications, lovers spats and most importantly, the most awaited anticipated event of the year, The final Quidditch match of the year.
A sacred and historical event that occurred every year, and some of the teachers would argue that with tensions already on the high it really wasn't necessary, but the show must go on. This year, it was no surprise that the finalists were Slytherin and Gryffindor, trained under respective coaches Lucinda Talkalot and James Potter, both talented, both spirited, both determined.
It was going to be a cracker of a game.
Amongst all this chaos two souls stood alone, desperately craving each other's company, desperately yearning to understand the feelings they harboured for each other.
Weeks ago they shared an argument,
She didn't understand what her heart wanted,
So she listened to her brain.
He didn't like what his brain was telling him,
So he followed his heart.
She was Elizabeth Gilmore,
He was Sirius Black,
And they were both barking mad.
"PADS GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME! HAVE YOU HEARD A WORD OF WHAT I JUST SAID?"
Sirius shook himself out of his reverie which included a pair of lovely blue eyes and some very lacy red lingerie and looked upto his best friends scowling face, he let out a huff before replying, "PADS GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME, DID YOU HEAR A WORD OF WHAT I JUST SAID!"
James rolled his eyes and whipped around on his broom.
"WRONG! I TOLD YOU TO STAY ON OUR CHASERS AND PROTECT US WHEN WE'RE IN HAWKSHEAD FORMATION! LETS GO AGAIN!"
Sirius huffed, the last few weeks had been hell! A mixture of trying to cram seven years worth of study into his brain, figuring out how to win over Elizabeth Gilmore and going to James's spontaneous training session, they once had 3 training sessions in one day! It had gotten so ridiculous that they'd gone to McGonagall and told her James had gone crazy and that training was interfering with their studies, all she said was she would accept his oddities as long as he got her a Gryffindor victory. Suffice to say, they left her office irritated and James in retaliation upped training.
What a great chap.
With a roll of his grey eyes he tried to push his thoughts of a scantily clad Elizabeth out of his mind and flew towards Mary, whom was smiling at him, her blonde ponytail whipping in the air as she soared through the air.
Elizabeth, he'd...he'd deal with her later.
Elizabeth sighed as she dropped her quill and leant back in her chair, rolling her stiff shoulders after being hunched over her desk for roughly two hours. She had finished her arithmancy essay on "How number seven influences your daily life," DADA on inferius, chapter summary on animagi for Mcgonagall as well as a step by step guide to venomous tentacular and how to be safe around it. She found the latter to be slightly ironic because even if she tried she couldn't be safe around venomous tentacular.
She'd never know why Professor Sprout even bothered to assign her something that would never help her.
She stood up, carrying several books on Ancient Runes in her arms, the corridors were cold, but she loved it. Aprils spring air was bitingly fresh, it left her lungs clear and her skin numb. The night air was beautiful and the sky was clear leaving a plethora of twinkling stars scattered through the dark canvas. She bit her lip and continued to walk upto Gryffindor common room. She didn't want to look at stars, she didn't want to take any short cuts, she didn't want to go to transfiguration, she didn't even want to eat any bacon.
It all reminded her all too much of him.
Of Sirius.
He was a rebellion with a charming grin.
She didn't want to think of him, she didn't want to see him, she didn't want to hear him. They wouldn't be good together, they would clash and they'd poison one other. They'd be toxic. She couldn't see them having a future, yet…she wanted him so bad, she wanted a taste of forbidden fruit, she wanted to hold him, to kiss him, to have him. She wanted him to look at her with his beautiful steel eyes with love, she wanted to make him laugh, she wanted to wake up every morning to see his hair tousled. She wanted his good and his bad, she wanted him in his entirety.
Even if she knew they wouldn't work out.
That's why she listened to her brain, it was a lot less painful.
Remus walked through the corridors rubbing at his eyes, he'd just spent about an hour at the kitchens eating chocolate delicacies whilst persuading the house elves to do him a small favour. This time of the year was always his favourite. He had reasons to study more than he usually did, the boys would always plan their plethora of pranks for the end of the year, the dorm would be peaceful because James and Sirius were always at Quidditch training. However this year, despite being his last year where he should be over the moon, he often felt pangs in his heart. In three months he would be out of the safe confines of Hogwarts and out in the real world, where the past seven years of his condition being maintained would probably be exploited.
He looked out of the window and up into the stars, the twinkling stars placed immaculately onto a large canvas in an array of constellations. The stars were beautiful, he hoped that one day he could be like a star, apart of a story, maybe not a legendary tale, but a tale never the less, one of a werewolf who was able to do something. It was unlikely, practically impossible. But he wouldn't give up.
He saw stars everywhere he looked, in the sky, in his lovers eyes, in his friends futures. It was as if they were already a story destined to be placed in the sky. As though the fates had already determined their destinies and layed them out to one day be apart of an epic tale.
Remus turned when he heard the pitter patter of footsteps approaching him, a smile spread across his scarred face when he saw a tall blonde approaching him. When close enough he pulled her into his arms, and inhaled her fresh scent. She smelled of rain and grass, as well as sweat but he decided to ignore that. He felt her wiggling against him so he loosened his arms and looked at her weirdly causing a grin to appear on her face, she put her arms around his neck and leant forward to give him a kiss but she stopped half way there when she saw his nose crinkled.
Oh how she loved when he crinkled his nose, it was so cute. Her cute little werewolf.
Mary looked at him with an eyebrow raised and a questioned look on her face, he noticed her face and leant forward to kiss her, only to once again crinkle his nose.
"Why are you crinkling your nose?" he just shook his head and leant forward and gave her a peck before crouching down and getting out of her embrace. A dawning realisation set on her shoulders and she struggled to stifle a snort.
"Is that your nice way of saying that I stink."
"No, you smell lovely dear." He muttered at he took her hand in his, Mary snorted and cocked her hip.
"Maybe I should go tell James Potter to reduce training so that he stops irritating my dear boyfriends sensitive nose."
"You smell fine."
"AHA SO I DO STINK!" She exclaimed triumphantly, stomping her foot down with a laugh.
"Where on earth did you come to the conclusion that you think that I think you smell bad." Remus questioned looking at her curiously. She raised an eyebrow and gave him a smile.
"Because you said I smell fine, when you use the word fine you generally mean the opposite." She laughed causing him to let out a huff of air whilst shaking his head,
"Mary, you smell adequate."
"I don't even know what that means!" she laughed, bending over and clutching her stomach in mirth. He pulled her closer and pressed a kiss to her forehead.
"It's a synonym of fine."
"Only you Remmy, only you." Mary looked up at him, her eyes sparkling in amusement, she had strands of blonde hair stuck to her sweat licked face. Remus moved those strands behind her ear and leant down to kiss her.
"I love you Mare, sweat and all." She let out a laugh and connected their lips, after they parted she bit her bottom lip,
"and I love you, furry little problem and all." At that moment Remus felt like the most loved man in the galaxy, his heart soared and his stomach flipped. Remus leant down once more and kissed her.
He could kiss her forever.
It was officially one week until the Quidditch cup, one week until arch nemesis Slytherin vs Gryffindor fought it out on the pitch, a final and much anticipated battle between not only the two houses, but two captains. Lucinda Talkalot and James Potter.
That morning, the Gryffindor seventh years sat in the middle of the table once more, for the first time in weeks it seemed that Sirius Black had a genuine look of excitement on his face, and the other three just looked suspicious. Something was going to happen, and they all knew it.
The girls sat down looking at them. They heard a moan behind them and they turned to see Elizabeth devouring bacon. They looked at her oddly as she opened her eyes and looked at them.
"Are you eating that piece of bacon or making love to it." Beverley asked her with a smirk on her face. Mary and Lily looked at her disgusted but humor shone in their eyes as they watched Elizabeth eat the bacon. She grabbed another piece and stared at it lovingly before looking at the girls.
"This bacon is orgasm inducing." She stated before putting it in her mouth. Beverley looked up with interest.
"Perfect for us loners." She grabbed a piece and bit into it, it tasted good, better than usual…but orgasm inducing, please.
"You don't need it, you can have anyone you want, I'm already an old crazy cat lady." Elizabeth exclaimed before snatching Beverley's fork away from her. Beverley rolled her eyes.
"You know there's someone a few seats down who can give you plenty of orgasms." She whispered suggestively.
"I don't even want to think about Sirius." She said bluntly, spraying pieces of bacon around her. The girls all looked up at her with shock written on their faces. Beverley recovered quickly and with a smirk leant over and whispered with a wink,
"How'd you know I wasn't talking about peter." Elizabeth let out a snort, she loved Peter to bits, but really? Peter? She didn't think Peter even knew what an orgasm was.
"Pete has a larger chance then I do of becoming a crazy old lady who loves cats." Before the girls could reply a scream came from the Ravenclaw table, then shouts of outrage from the Slytherin table, questions erupted from the Hufflepuffs as they looked for where it came from and the gryffindors burst into laughter. Around the hall, teachers and students alike, from all the houses, seemed to be affected.
Everyone's hair had somehow turned red.
Gryffindor red.
"BLACK! POTTER! LUPIN! PETTIGREW!" A scottish accent resounded around the room causing the hall to stop, the four boys in question started to move towards the doors when McGonagall started to race up the middle.
"You know professor, reds definitely your colour." Sirius exclaimed winking at her roguishly. Elizabeth felt her insides clench and butterflies to swirl in her stomach. Sirius Black should not wink at people, It invoked feelings within her that she didn't want invoked.
"Brings out your eyes professor, much better than green." Peter laughed before they slowly increased their speed and ran out of the hall, leaving laughter and outrage in their wake.
"DETENTION TONIGHT AT 7 FOR ALL FOUR OF YOU!"
Suffice to say, they left much just as much anger as they did laughter in their wake.
NEWT hysteria was gripping the whole of the seventh year cohort and lily Evans was not exempt from it. When she wasn't studying or patrolling the corridors she was helping her fellow classmates with their revision. James Potter or the other hand had been in a flurry of panic that entire week, after the prank on Monday morning he'd cracked down and it was showing, If he wasn't at quidditch practice he was trying to prevent Gryffindor's from hexing the Slytherins whilst, trying to protect the Gryffindor's from the Slytherins curses. With the weight of Quidditch priorities on his shoulders it wasn't an unusual sight to see James Potter in the library late at night or even walking through the corridors with a book.
So when the big day came one would say that the Head girl and boy were relieved, tensions were higher than they'd ever been…
Peter and Remus were sitting with the girls eating silently, they were as nervous as the rest of the Gryffindor team. They'd separated for breakfast so that the team could discuss last minute strategies and tactics as they wouldn't have much time for pep talks and discussions prior to the game.
"It feels like its nearly over." Elizabeth whispered as she put down her fork and looked at the group of people surrounding her, in the past year she'd made such great friends, people who had such different personalities had all entered her life and changed it for the better. She was eternally greatful to have met such wonderful people.
"What do you mean?" Beverley asked in confusion, picking at the mango cubes on her plate.
"This is our last ever Quidditch match at Hogwarts." She replied shortly with a small trembling smile. Lily's face dropped with realization. How could the years have passed by so quickly, how could they have gone from young eleven year olds, keen to watch their first ever match of Quidditch at Hogwarts, to being adults, nearly graduated, preparing to watch their final Quidditch match.
"Its like the beginning of the end, first of the lasts." She reached over and grabbed Elizabeths hand, "I love you guys so much," she looked towards Remus and Peter, "Don't think that doesn't stretch over to you guys as well!" she laughed, her voice going croaky, she took a deep breath, and snuck a quick glimpse down the table to where Mary, James and Sirius were sitting with the rest of the team, "We have so many good times together and i…" she bit her lip as if trying to put together the words that would describe the millions of thoughts and feelings going through her mind and heart. She couldn't believe it, it was nearly over.
"I don't want that to stop when we leave." Beverley squeezed Lily's other hand with a small smile before beginning to giggle. She blinked away her unshed tears and cleared her throat.
"I think that my daily limit for chumminess has been exceeded." Causing the rest for the group to let out small laughs. "lets just not think of this as the beginning of the end…but erm…"
She struggled to find a way to end her sentence, Peter mumbled something under his breath causing everyone to look at him, her gave them a close mouthed smile as his mouth was full of toast.
"The end of the start?" Peter added in with a mouth full of toast, Beverley wrinkled her nose at the lack of etiquette before nodding with a trembling smile.
"Yeah, the end of the start." She laughed before stopping as the Gryffindor and Slytherin team simultaneously stood up, brooms over their shoulders whilst both captains nodded to eachother and begun to walk out cheers erupting around the hall, all four houses clapping and screaming, several older students climbed onto the tables and sent out all sorts of spells around the room.
James saw a flash of red in his peripheral vision and turned only to be suffocated with red hair and strawberry scented shampoo, Lily. He breathed in her sweet scent and sighed, she was perfection. She lifted her head from his chest and looked upto his hazel eyes with a cheeky grin before leaning up on his tiptoes and kissing his nose.
"Good luck." she murmured before turning away, only to be pulled back into his embrace and had a chaste kiss planted on her lips. Cat calls erupted around the hall at the display of affection.
"I don't need it honey." James retorted in his cockiest tone causing Lily to raise an eyebrow, she planted a hand on her hip and pursed her lips. She rolled her eyes before placing her small hands on his cheeks and leaning forward.
"You are so cocky!" She shook her head and laughed, James ran a hand through his tousled hair and rolled him eyes,
"Its not being cocky if its the truth!" He exclaimed and pecked her on the nose, She raised an eyebrow and cocked her hip and placed a hand on it.
"Go kick some Slytherin ass."
"Yes ma'am" he saluted with a grin before sauntering out of the hall with the rest of his team.
"LETS WELCOME THE SLYTHERINS LED BY CAPTAIN LUCINDA TALKALOT, BLOODY BRILLIANT PLAYER IF I SAY SO MYSELF!" Dorcas Meadows yelled into the microphone as her commentary was being drowned by cheers from the Slytherins and raucous boo's from the rest of the school. The Slytherin team entered the pitch as they were introduced one by one from the right side and flew in a complicated manouver around the pitch before placing themselves in their positions, green puffs of smoke erupted in grandstands and circled the pitch before evaporating.
"A BIG ROAR FOR THE GRYFFINDORS LED BY THE ONE AND ONLY...CAPTAIN JAMES POTTER!" Loud cheers erupted throughout the stadium, as everyone on the team flew in one by one the cheers got louder, during their introductory lap red smoke erupted from the grandstands before it too disappeared.
The two captains stood facing eachother with civil yet fierce expressions on their faces, equal amounts of determination glowed in their eyes and lit up their souls. Madame Hooch stood in between them, her eyes a glowing amber with anticipation.
"Captains, shake hands." Lucinda and James approached each other and grasped one another's hands with a squeeze before firmly giving each other a shake. It would be an exciting game, that they knew. There was no animosity between the two captains, only friendly competition.
"Mount your brooms!" said Madame Hooch, "3,2,1…" the blow of her whistle was drowned out by the cheers echoing through the pitch signalling the exhilleration coming from the crowd.
No matter the outcome of the game.
It would go down in Hogwarts History.
James was still smirking from the memory of the scene with Lily two hours later as he expertly swerved around a Slytherin chaser and scored a goal before the Slytherin even knew what was happening. James turned back and winked at Lucinda who was glaring at the player, rage flitering across her dark features. The Crowd (minus the slytherins) Screamed in approval at the move causing James's smirk to grow across his handsome features, he lifted his arms up and gave a mock bow as a bludger went through the space where his head was moments ago, as gasped echoed around the pitch James, with a grimace shook his head and flew forward to attempt to intercept the quaffle.
Lily's eye twitched as she watched a bludger pass through he area where James head was moments ago in disbelief. She was relieved that her boyfriend hadn't just been decapitated however there was apart of her that so badly wished to decapitate him herself. Bloody idiot, all for a bloody game where they flew on bloody broomsticks and threw balls. Okay it was more than that and she was a massive Holyhead Harpies fan. The Slytherins were playing dirtier than usual and that was saying something, she'd lost count of the penalties awarded to Gryffindor. Not that she minded.
The crowd begun to cheer and clap once more when Mary got a penalty shot in and scored for Gryffindor, her and James crossed paths and high fived eachother as they passed with large grins on their faces.
"STELLAR MOVES I TELL YOU! DEFINTILY THE BEST TEAM GRYFFINDORS HAD IN YEARS! 360-270 GRYFFINDOR IN THE LEAD!" Dorcas Screamed into the enchanted microphone, excitement glowed on her features in spades.
"OOOOOOOOOOOOO AND THAT'S A TIME OUT REQUESTED BY TALKALOT! SEEMS BLACK WAS GETTING IRRITATED BY AVERY'S MERE PRESENCE AND DECIDED TO SEND A BLUDGER INTO HIS FACE!" She let out a laugh as she squinted at Lucinda who was talking to Avery, checking up on him, Sirius was spinning his beaters bat with bearly concealed glee as his fellow beater laughed and gave him not so subtle congratulations.
Elizabeth snorted and shook her head in amusement, how very Sirius for him to do that. He could not go into his last game against Slytherin and not maim them.
"MIND YOU I'D DO THE EXACT SAME, A BLUDGER CANT MAKE HIM ANY MORE UGLIER!" the crowd roared with laughter, some even coming from the Slytherin side, no body could deny that Dorcas had brilliant commentary. Avery's face flushed brightly and he turned and made an innapropriate hand gesture towards Dorcas causing her to mock gasp and Lucinda to elbow him in annoyance.
"OI! PROFESSORS DID YOU SEE THAT! WHAT A SLIMY, BLACK GO HIT HIM WITH A BLUDGER AGAIN! I'LL GET LILY EVANS TO GIVE YOU POINTS! SHE WONT MIND, I PROMISE!"
Beverley was holding her stomach as glee rippled off her in waves, "Merlin look at Avery's face! Damn it Talkalots taking the penalty!" cheers erupted over the Slytherin part of the stadium as Lucinda got the shot. Elizabeth rolled her eyes and leant back in her chair, she knew Lucinda would get the shot anyway.
"10 POINTS TO SLYTHERIN! 360-280- STILL GRYFFINDORS!"
"Gryffindor in possession, MacDonald in possession of the quaffle- she passes to Potter who-passes back what ARE YOU DOING! Oh phew looked like Carrow was going to intercept, Macdonald makes her way to the goals and she…NO!- Merlin that was intense, Talkalot intercepts, she swerves around Black's bludger and makes her way to the goals and she throws and 10 MORE POINTS TO SLYTHERIN! 360-290!" Lucinda pumped her fist in the air and soared around the end of the pitch, screams of delight echoing through the air-
Suddenly Mary was nearly thrown off her broom as Carrow rammed into her, she slipped and spun on her broom, "LOW BLOW CARROW!" she screamed her ponytail flying through the air.
"Sorry! Didn't see ya!" he put his arms up in an obvious mock surrender, Sirius grabbed his beaters bat and threw it at carrow's face hitting him square in the nose. A triumphant grin plastered across his face. The crowd cheered, glee rolling off them at the action presenting itself in the epic finale.
"ENOUGH OF THIS DISGUSTING MISCONDUCT! PENALTIES ON BOTH SIDES!"
"But my hand slipped!" Sirius yelled out innocently, giving her his best doe eyes.
"I was swerving around blacks bludger!"
"NO EXCUSES FOR PURPOSFUL MISCONDUCT!" She yelled back but was interrupted by Dorcas's excited exclamation. The crowd went deadly silent as they awaited the ending of the game. It was so very close, any of them could win.
"I THINK THE SNITCH HAS BEEN SIGHTED! BLACK AND REED ARE HEAD TO HEAD! BOTH HAVE THE SAME BROOM AND EQUAL AMOUNTS OF SKILL, WHOSE GOING TO GET IT?" Both seekers were in a steep dive just centimeters between the snitch and themselves.
"MERLINS SAGGY LEFT!-
"LANGUAGE MS MEADOWS!" McGonagall screeched,
"370-280 GRYFFINDOR IN THE LEAD, ANYONE CAN WIN AT THIS POINT!" Reed shoved Black and he did nothing but retaliate, they were in a game of push and shove.
The wind around them was howling, the crowd silent in anticipation, breaths held, mcgonagal was eyes wide and biting her nails. Reed flattened herself against her broom and urged it to go faster, she was just ahead, she pushed her arm out to block Regulus and used her other arm to leap forward and grab onto the snitch.
"AND REED CATCHES THE SNITCH! GRYFFINDOR WINS THE HOUSE CU-OH MERLIN, OH MERLIN SHE'S FALLING!" In her leap Reed had slipped and fallen off her broom, James's eyes widened in shock before he raced to catch her from underneath. The school awaited with silent breaths, waiting to find out what would happen.
"AND THANK MERLIN FOR JAMES POTTER WHO SAVED HIS SEEKERS LIFE! YOU OKAY REED?" Dorcas questioned the girl who was gripping onto James Potter with an elated grin on her freckly face, she nodded back at held up the snitch causing large cheers to explode around the pitch. As they got onto the ground they were surrounded by laughing team mates, Wave upon wave of crimson, gold, blue and emerald came pouring onto the pitch with raucous joy. The Gryffindor team was hoisted upon the shoulders of their house mates as they cheered, enchanted red and gold fireworks lit up the pale sky.
Dumbledore's eyes were twinkling as he stood in the middle of the pitch holding the quidditch cup. With a smile he handed James the quidditch cup. With tears brimming his eyes and a large grin james motioned to Sirius who left out a bark of laughter and he too grabbed onto the handle of the large cup, together they hoisted it up causing the cheers to increase. Their ears were already ringing.
"We won! We won!" Sirius laughed and grabbed onto James with childlike joy. James unbashed, let a tear fall. This was it, his final game, and it was over.
James had the largest smile on his face, everything was forgotten, only joy was flowing through him.
Words failed him as he caught the eyes of the most beautiful person in his life,
He was going to miss Hogwarts.
Elizabeth held onto Beverley's hand as they raced out onto the pitch, her cheeks hurting from the large smile plastered onto her pale face. The wind caused her hair to form a halo around her. They had won! They had won the Quidditch cup!
As they got onto the grounds they were separated, her breath coming out in gasps from the exertion of running down all the steps. she stood to the side of the pitch looking for a single entity, she had to set things straight, she wanted nothing more than to set things straight.
Her blue eyes scanned the pitch looking for two shocks of Black hair which was easy to spot in the sea of crimson surrounding them.
With a deep breath she steadied herself. This was it.
Sometimes thinking with your brain was the easy choice, but now the heart was talking.
Sirius glanced at James when he was elbowed in the gut with a raised eyebrow, James just smirked and nodded towards the crowd streaming from the sidelines, Sirius looked forward in curiosity and through a slew of crimson he saw her standing there with a determined gleam in her eyes. Sirius winced, he was in for it, was it because he threw the bludger? Oh merlin, it must've been because he wacked Carrow in the face with the bat. Or maybe because he stole the last bacon rasher that morning.
He was caught by surprise James sniggered, he looked back up and saw her pushing through the crowds towards him, unexpectedly a breathtaking smile spread across her face as she caught sight of him, Sirius, undone by her beautiful smile couldn't help but grin in return.
Her white teeth shone and he smile was as real as could be. A single dimple was visible on her right cheek. She pushed through the celebrating crowd.
She moved forward so that they stood facing one another, her cheeks were flushed and her breathing was laboured, her eyes slowly lowered and raked across his chest, with very movement his muscles rippled in his tight Quidditch jersey. Sirius noticed her penetrating stare and had to supress the shudder that went through him. God he wanted to feel her eyes on him all the time.
How could someone be so singularly gifted and so beautiful? His steel grey gaze locked with her eyes, oh those beautiful eyes, they were like an ocean of mysteries, ready to be studied and discovered, like a book written in the finest of prints.
Her eyes were the most beautiful he'd ever seen. They never got any less beautiful, he could look into those eyes all day and not get sick of the myriad shades of blue swirled together.
Slowly, agonisingly slow, they seemed to be pulled together by a magnet created by their hearts, dragging them closer and closer so that they could connect and merge as one entity. He felt his heart race as he felt her warm breath feathering his face. She was perfect. Bloody perfect.
Elizabeth gazed into his grey eyes, flickered with dark blue and black. She placed a hand on his jaw feeling his slight stubble on his jaw. Her eyes traced his full pink lips. His black eyelashes cast shadows under his eyes and he had very light freckles under his eyes. He had the most adorable smile on his face, a smirk that was half upturned and his dimples tattooed his face.
Sirius's gaze fleeted over her face, he could count her few freckles splayed across the bridge of her nose, he could see the hairs of her arched eyebrows, he could count her dark lashes. His gaze dropped to her pouting pink lips and like a starved man he lowered his head and pressed his lips against hers.
At that moment the world seemed to rejoice.
Elizabeths stomach erupted and her heart thumped to a thunderous beat, he was so beautiful, so perfect.
Her arms moved up his back and circled around his neck as his arms encircled her small waist. She leant up on her tippy toes and ran her hands through his wavy locks as they passionately them people clapped and cheered, catcalls around them.
To him it was like his first kiss all over again, to her it was like finally learning to live.
