Chapter 44 – Igloo fun
OoO
The next morning, they discussed the marriage and relationship issue with Dumbledore. The headmaster thought it would be best to be straightforward. So, he would tell the other students the truth during dinner when they get back to Hogwarts. The group enjoyed the last few hours alone in the castle, they gathered at the grass field next to the black lake. The grounds were covered in a thick blanket of snow. Everywhere they looked they would see white; the lake was frozen over. The sun reflected on the ice almost blinded him. Lily, Izzie and Regulus were walking up front. Sirius, Remus and James behind them. Sirius was frowning at the back of the girls and his brother.
"What wrong, Pads?" James asked as he nudged his side.
"Nothing." He grumbled.
"He's miffed Izzie's hanging with Reg and Lily." Remus snickered.
"What? Why? They hang out all the time."
"I'm not miffed." Sirius huffed. His eyes were on the long caramel brown locks that were flowing behind her. He wanted to run his hands through it. "It's just..." He sighed. "I'm just being able to touch her again for only a week and now she's -" He gestured to the three before them.
"She won't go anywhere, mate. You have plenty of time." James clapped his back.
"You - you don't know that." He grunted, running a hand through his hair. "I've lost her before, her father is still out there, her uncle, my parents... You don't – you don't know."
"Padfoot." Remus stopped him by placing his hands on his shoulder, turning him to face him. "You can't think like that."
Sirius snorted. "Don't tell me you are not thinking the same thing."
Remus eyes shot to his boyfriend and the girls; panic flickered in his eyes. "Yeah, you're right." He looked back to his best friend. "And with everyone returning this evening, I don't know..."
"Well, since we all want to spend time with our better halves -" James winked before running over to the others. He threw an unexpected Lily over his shoulder, and she shrieked in surprise. "I'm stealing my woman!"
Izzie laughed while Regulus scowled at James's antics. Remus darted after his boyfriend and since Reg didn't see him approaching, Izzie quickly whispered a warning in his ear. Reg spun around as Remus wrapped his arms around him, he leaned in close and whispered something in his ear, making him blush scarlet red. Reg grabbed Remus hand and tugged him towards the castle towards the door Lily and James had disappeared. Izzie's beaming smile turned to Sirius and his heart skipped a beat. The sun was shining brightly behind her, making her hair look a shade lighter, her eyes sparkled in amusement. Even though she was dressed against the cold, a warm hat, gloves and a thick scarf, she looked mesmerizingly beautiful. He walked up to her quickly, cupping her head in his hands and leaned in to kiss her. She pulled on the collar of his leather jacket, bringing him closer to her.
"I'm guessing you had something to do with what just happened?" She smiled as she pulled back.
"I don't know what you're talking about." He licked his lips.
"Oh, no?" She ran her hands over his chest. "It thought the six of us were going to have a snowball fight, and I've seen you scowling from the moment we left the tower.
"I wasn't scowling."
"Yes, you were. And do you remember what I told you?" Sirius looked confused as his hand played with the end of her scarf. "You're prettier when you smile, love."
He gave her a goofy smile that fluttered her stomach. "I just wanted to -"
"Yes?"
He blushed which made her grin. "To touch you, okay? To hold you, to kiss you, to be with you. But you were hanging all over Lily and my baby brother." He pouted.
"Sirius." She kissed his lips as she tugged on his scarf that was neatly put in jacket and pulled it out. "I want to be with you." She lowered her lips to his neck, she felt him shiver against her and his hands gripped her hips. She pulled the jacket open a little and tugged down his sweater. "I love you." She kissed his collarbone.
"Izzie." Sirius said a little breathlessly.
"But I -" Her breath ghosted over his exposed neck. "Want to spend time with my friends. I don't want to lose myself in you."
"Iz, I -"
"But you are like a magnet." Her hand slipped under his sweater. She had to have chugged her glove at some point because her cold fingers sprawled against his warm skin. "You keep pulling me in."
"Fuck, Izzie." He breathed in her hair as she sucked a little on his collarbone. She chuckled, waving her glove clad hand in the air. Sirius saw snowy bricks appear around them. "What are you doing?"
"Sit down." She whispered. Her warm breath against his skin almost made his lose his mind. He sat down immediately. She bit her bottom lip as she climbed on top of his lap. As the igloo closed around them, the snow beneath him disappeared. She unwrapped the scarf from around his neck and tossed it behind him. Then she slowly unzipped his leather jacket, and she smiled when she saw that he was wearing the jumper Mrs Potter bought for him. All the while Sirius looked at her with large, grey stormy eyes. Her fingers hooked under the hem of his sweater and with one swift movement, dispersed of it alongside his shirt. Leaving him bare chested while Izzie was still fully clothed.
"Iz, I don't know if-"
"I'm not going to ravish you in an igloo on school grounds, Black." She snickered. He felt relieved and a little disappointed at the same time. "I'm just -" She let her finger graze over the tattoos on his chest. "Going to explore you a little bit."
Sirius swallowed hard. He had girls look at him with lust in their eyes, but the look Izzie was sending him was more, so much more than that. She looked like she wanted to know every part of him, every freckle, every scar, every tattoo. And, oh how he wanted to get to know her like that too. But she was still straddling him fully clothed.
"Sirius Black, lost for words." She whispered close to his mouth. "I like it." She unwrapped her own scarf and tossed it with Sirius's things before she popped open the buttons of her coat, shrugging it off her shoulders. Sirius fingers unwillingly went just under the hem of her sweater, his fingers grazing her bare stomach. "Lay down."
"Yes, ma'am." He gasped a little when his bare back hit the grass. It wasn't cold but damp against his skin. Izzie was still looking at him like she was mapping out his body. Her fingers grazed over the tattoo on his right shoulder.
"What does this mean?" Her voice was barely above a whisper.
"It's the Celtic sign of family. Not the Black family but for my chosen one." He said as softly as her, his eyes were fixed on hers as she traced his marks. She leaned down and her lips traced over the tattoo. He closed his eyes, revelling in the feeling of her. So intimate, so real, so her.
"What about this one." Her fingers traced over the cross on his ribcage.
"It's the Ankh symbol." He gasped as her lips grazed over his ribs. "It - it re-represents life." He stuttered from her touch. "Because dear Merlin I want to live." He said before he guided her lips to his and gave her a searing kiss, the most heated they ever had. His hands on her hips, curled around her and pulled her flush against him. She could feel him, all of him against her. She discarded her sweater with a wandless and soundless spell and Sirius groaned as he felt her skin against his. They broke apart panting and Sirius eyes grew even darker when he saw her burgundy lace bra.
"Izzie-"
"I told you we're not going to do anything." She leaned her head closer, her lips next to his ear. "But it feels like you want to."
"You make me want to do all kind of things to you." He bucked his hips a little and she bit his shoulder from the sudden contact. "But we're taking it slow, and you are making it real hard for me."
"Yes, I can feel that." She laughed as she sat straight up on his lap. Sirius pursed his lips at her. "But you kissed me. I wasn't quite done exploring you."
"By all means." He stretched his hands and folded them behind his head.
She smiled shyly before she shuffled a little lower. The bulge in his pants twitched as her fingers grazed over the tattoo on his hipbone. It was a P with a cross through it. She recognised the symbol. "I'm a bit surprised by this one. When did you get it?" Her breath ghosted over the hairline underneath his navel.
"Two years ago." He fought to keep his voice steady. "I didn't think I would know love like this." His hand came from under his head and caressed her cheek. "I love my friends, but I didn't think I would be in love, ever. That's why I got this because I thought this would be the closest thing of love I could ever feel. But then you -" He smiled when she turned her head and kissed the palm of his hand. "Came into my life. And I know we've known each other for years but last year, I finally saw you, I finally got to know you. And even with all the shit happening, I've never been happier."
She took the hand from her cheek and intertwined their hands. She leaned forward until their hands were above his head and her lips grazed over his. She leaned her head against his and closed her eyes.
"I never thought I would feel this way about anyone either. I thought I was too damaged -" His free hand gripped her waist. "I thought I was unlovable, that I wasn't capable of this kind of love. That I didn't deserve to be loved." A single tear rolled down her cheek and she smiled a little. "Who knew that bachelor number 1, Sirus Black would be the one to make me feel this way."
"With everything we've gone through, you've gone through, I think we both deserve to be loved like this." She opened her eyes to see him looking at her already. "And I am never going to stop loving you, not in this life and not in the next."
She crashed her lips against his, the kiss started slow and sweet before it was fuelled with passion and urgency. Then her lips travelled across his chest, nipping and sucking at his flesh. He knew she was leaving marks, but he didn't care the slightest. His hands were placed on the small of her back, he didn't want to push her but then she grasped one of his hands and placed it on her breast. Even with her bra on, he could feel her nipple perk up.
"Fuck!" He rasped as her teeth grazed his nipple. His free hand went for her other breast, and she moaned before capturing his lips again. She grinded against him and his eyes rolled to the back of his head in pleasure. If she was going to keep this up, he was going to cum in his pants like an eleven-year-old. "Izzie -" He said between kissing her. "We should stop, I'm -"
Her tongue dived into his mouth, stopping his speech. One of her hands slid down his chest slowly before she cupped his hard erection above his pants. She started to move her hand in time with her hips as she devoured his mouth. He couldn't get enough of her and kneaded her breasts more firmly, playing with her nipples through the fabric. And then she moaned loudly into his mouth, and he became undone underneath her in his pants. After his legs started shaking, she pulled back placing a kiss on the top of his nose.
"Well, that was a first." He said breathlessly, gazing into her eyes.
"I told you we would have firsts together." She smiled softly as she laid down beside him.
"That you did." He rolled to his side so he could fully face her. His hand landed on her bare hip, and she shivered. "But I never thought this would happen." He gestured to his stained pants. With a wave of her hand, she put a scourgify over his pants. "You haven't even really touched me." He looked to the ice wall behind her. "I'm- I'm a little embarrassed."
Izzie pushed herself up a little, so she hovered over him. Her hand traced his chest lightly. "I found it very hot." She leaned down to kiss his neck. "To make you feel like that. That I was the one that did this. Was this really the first time?"
Sirius was less embarrassed when he looked into her soft eyes. "I mean I had wet dreams before when I was younger, but I've never come in my pants from just kissing someone. The others would never let me down if they found out."
"My lips are sealed." She laid back down. "Besides I have dirt on everyone else, so they won't dare to say anything."
His fingers trailed over her side. "Gods, Izzie, I don't what I will do when you do touch me."
Her lips curved into a wicked smile before she whispered. "I can't wait to have my lips around you."
"Fuck!" He closed his eyes firmly. "I think I'm going to combust just from hearing you talk like that."
"Sorry, love." She pecked his lips. "I'll keep my mouth shut and my hands to myself." She shivered as she sat up in the igloo. "We should head back, the train should arrive soon."
"Yeah, just -" He gave her one lingering kiss before he handed her a sweater. It wasn't until he put on his sweater that he noticed they had switched since the sweater he was wearing was too short, revealing his navel. When Izzie saw this, she started to laugh wholeheartedly. She was just reaching for the hem to pull off the sweater when Sirius stopped her. "No, keep it on. I love when you're wearing my clothes."
She didn't object, because the sweater smelled of Sirius and it made her deliriously happy. When she put on her scarf and jacket, Sirius had extended the hem and the sleeves of her sweater until it fitted him perfectly. He let his jacket hang open as she dissolved the igloo around them, still hot from the recent activity. He wrapped an arm around her shoulder, tugging her into his chest as they made their way back to the castle, both with a dopey smile on their faces as the stars and the moon lighted their way.
