You got ready and went down to the hogsmede with the rest of the school. You all sat in a comfortable corner at the Rosemeta’s. You fidgeted, your patience wavering more and more each second. Your friends all gave you mischievous smirks, having already discussed the dare. You all had a few butterbeers, feeling the warm tingling in your throat.

“So, you ready for your dare?” Ruuhaan said raising his bottle to the tip of his mouth.

You took in a deep breath. Were you?

“Yes” you said even though your brain screamed-“hell no.”

“Okay,” said Grace slowly. “See that rowdy Gryffindor group behind you?”

You widened your eyes not having to turn to guess who they were talking about. Ruuhaan snickered at your reaction. You slowly turned to see your guess was right. There they were, the center of attraction of every person enjoying at the pub. They looked like popular band. You had talked to Remus a couple of times in the library. He was… cute. James and Sirius however, were loud and full of mischief. Even though you'd never talked to them you were scared. You looked at Grace silently pleading her to tell you the awful thing you had to do, because if you would wait any longer you felt like you could burst. Grace smiled. Did she have to?

“You have to go there and flirt with all three of them. We want to see them charmed by you.” She winked.

You squeezed your eyes shut throwing your head up in frustration.

“You guys are the worst.” You said as you took a shot of firewhiskey and getting up. So, how were you going to play this?

“We love you too. We’ll come when we think you’ve done your job.” Ruuhaan said with a snort.

As you walked towards their table you felt a pleasant hum of the shot you just took.

“Hey boys!” you said in a flirty tone wincing at how it sounded.

The notorious group turned to face you and suddenly you lost all the confidence you had mustered up. You wet your lips and took a deep breath.

“Umm… You see my friends there at the back—don’t look! Yeah they gave me a dare to flirt with you and charm you? Can you please please just play along and act like I’m doing it?” You said looking at their expressions. Remus gave you a little smile and a nod of understanding while James barked out a laugh.

“No can do doll, looks like you would have to charm us.” Sirius said with a smug look on his face, eyes glinting. He said charm using his hands to emphasize on it and cocked an eyebrow daring you.

“That does seem fair.” James said with the same sparkle in his eyes. You huffed. So you had no other choice. You summoned a chair and popped down between James and Sirius. You put both your elbows on the table taking your face in your hands.

“Oh yeah?” you said in an amused tone.

Sirius smirked. James let out a little- “Yup” popping the p. Remus looked at you judging your every move. You wouldn’t be surprised if he knew how nervous you were. Mustering every bit of courage you had, you turned towards James giving him your best smile. If you couldn't flirt with them you could at least talk and not make a complete fool of yourself.

“So, James I heard you were practicing hell a lot for the next season of quidditch” you asked remembering how he was the captain.

He nodded, grinning.

“You wanna hear what I heard?” you asked cocking your eyebrow. James let out a little hum.

“Have you seen James training? He has such an amazing body! The way his muscles flex—oof!” You said in a high pitched tone imitating the girl in the washroom making James blush. Did you just make James Fleamont Potter blush?!?

“Well,” James said slowly taking a sip of the butterbeer. “I’m fit. Everyone in the team is. We have to be; to perform properly, to remain active. Let’s be honest, Hogwarts food is the best and you couldn’t help but eat the delicious treats way more than you require!”

“Shush you! Being modest! I can see what the girl was talking about!” you said eyeing him playfully. You tried your best not to make any of them uncomfortable. And the blushing grin that James gave you and the snorts by the others proved you were on the right track.

Conversation flowed freely after that. They were actually really nice to talk to. You flirted with Remus a bit, confessing how cute he always looked in those reading glasses and called him an adorable dork. James and you teased each other occasionally and you found he could make anyone laugh and at ease. As for Sirius, well you could say he was every bit of the playboy everyone deemed him to be. He never not flirted back and make you flush under his gaze.

“Doll,” Sirius said looking at you. “I must say I am glad your friends made you come here today. I would have stuck with your memory of being one the studious girls who never look up from their books.”

“You say that as if you like me now!” you teased.

“Oh but I do.” He said with so much honesty in his voice that it made you double take things. Right then, Ruuhaan came up behind you placing a hand over your shoulder.

“(Y/n), we are leaving”

“Yeah” you said nodding as you got up to leave.

“It was really nice to see you guys today” you said with a sincere smile.

And it was. You were secretly glad too that you talked to these three charming boys. Especially Sirius. You shook your head. You and him could never happen. He did not mean those things he was being nice. And you had to ignore the butterflies that tingled your stomach whenever he looked at you. You were pretty sure that was the last time you would ever have a one on one conversation with him. He was smart, funny and not to mention drop dead gorgeous. Almost everyone had a low-key crush on him and maybe you did too now. He was an amazing listner and you didn't think he would ever have the time to talk to you again.

But apparently life was full of surprises. Sirius would be there beside you almost every other day in the library, making efforts to talk to you. You couldn’t complain. Conversations with him were always very interesting and never failed to leave a smile on your face. He would help you with your studies knowing you get anxious over your grades.

As time passed on; you felt comfortable reaching out to him on your own. You two would be seen together talking about anything and everything. He told you about his family, making you wonder how could something as trivial as Hogwarts house or the purity of blood set someone off so much. Your heart ached for him. Sometimes you two would just sit quietly beside each other watching James practice quidditch. And maybe the silences you two shared said the most things. And the lame crush build on into so much more. You loved him. But you would be damned if you let it come between the two of you.

***

“What does he even see in her?” you heard shushed voices behind you. You were studying in the library.

“Oh come on! (Y/n) is not someone Sirius likes! He is just with her because he pities her!”

“Hmm… How could he be with someone like her!”

You gulped. You shouldn’t have overheard this. You knew they were some cranky mean students, but… did he really pity you?

“How’s my favorite girl doing?” Sirius asked as he plopped down beside you. You frowned.

“I don’t know. Why don’t you ask her?” you said. You had seen how Sirius had stopped flirting around. But insecurity was like an insect crawling inside you making you disregard everything that was present just before your eyes. He never told you he liked you more than a friend. Maybe afterall it was just your thoughts.

“But I just did.” He said raising his eyebrows. You scoffed.

“I am so not your favorite girl!”

Sirius frowned.

“Hey!” he said making you turn towards him. “What is the matter?”

“Nothing.”

“No it’s not. Tell me.”

“It’s nothing.”

“Tell me.”

“No.”

“Tell me.”

“No.”

“Tell me.”

“I LIKE YOU, OKAY!” you shouted not able to take it anymore. “I just heard some students talking shit like you are with me because you pity me and I hate it. I like you and I can’t pretend any differently.”

“That’s good, ‘cause I like you too.” Sirius smirked, and then stopped looking at you.“I thought you knew!”

“No. No, I didn’t.” you said failing to keep the hope spreading across your face. “It doesn’t hurt to hear it.” You said in a small voice.

Sirius let out a laugh. He came forward placing his hands on the either side of your waist.

“Charm me first.” He said wriggling his eyebrows. You smirked.

“Sirius, the most handsome man to walk this planet; you’re sweet, charming and an absolute dork. You could make people smile and you help everyone without asking anything ever in return. And your laugh, your laugh is jus-“ you were cut off as Sirius pressed his lips to yours.

“You could just smile and I would be done for.” Sirius said making you blush.

Just then James came behind you both whistling, Remus near him having a look of a proud mom.

This was a bad idea.

There was no way you could keep conscious of the impending dangerous situation if he was going to kiss you like that; soft at first and then getting deeper and deeper until you could feel his tongue flick across your bottom lip.

One hand still holding your cheek, the other moving slowly down to grip your waist and pull you to him. He broke the kiss and leaned to the side, peppering your neck with more kisses, his stubble scraping the side of your jaw. “How close is he?” Sirius breathed into your ear.

It was then you opened your eyes and realised you had wrapped your arms around his neck. “Uh…um” You spluttered. “I can’t really see past your shoulder.”

There was a beat and in one fluid movement Sirius had dropped both his hands, bent down, grabbed your thighs and lifted you up wrapping your legs around his waist.

Your back hard against a wall of bark, he pushed himself against you using one hand to hold you up and the other to steady himself against the trunk before he leaned his head to the side and asked you again.

Wholly mother fucking fuck! This man! It took all your strength of will to wrench your thoughts away from the feeling of his thumping heart beat, hard chest, and intoxicating smell of vetiver and orange musk.

You squinted over his shoulder into the darkness, his wavy hair tickling your lips as you tried to calm your breathing. Yes this situation was potentially dangerous but it was the feel of this man and the touch of his lips on your skin that had your heart all a flutter.

He kept kissing your neck and jaw while your eyes adjusted to the darkness. If you had asked him why, he would have said it was to keep up the act of seeming like a couple but he knew, as well as you did, kissing each other felt so so good.

As you glanced around you saw and heard nothing. It seemed that your quarry had gone. To be sure you moved your sight line to Sirius’ other shoulder, but not before placing another open mouthed kiss on his lips. This one was more hurried. God he was a good kisser. He tasted like honey and something tart at the same time and as you laced your fingers through his hair he leaned into you further, pressing your hips into his while he moved his tongue against yours.

It was getting harder and harder to concentrate and just as you thought that it was going to be difficult to explain this moment as anything other than a full on make out session, it happened…

Sirius was in ecstasy, your warm lips on his. He could feel your breasts pressed against his chest and your hand moving through his hair. He was losing it, so fucking close to apparating the two of you back to his bedroom to spend the night worshipping your body, showing you just how much he wanted you when there was a flash of light and your hand tightening on his head before falling limp.

You broke apart, he looked at you - another flash of light illuminating your face – you were white as a ghost, staring at a spot behind his right shoulder. You had been discovered.

Not bothering to turn around, Sirius cupped the back of your head and apparated both of you to Grimmauld Place. Rules or no rules something was wrong and his first thought was to get you to safety.

Stumbling into the hallway, Sirius raced you to the kitchen calling out in the hope someone from the order was still there. Luckily Remus, Arthur, and Bill were standing over the table wrapping up the last of their reports for the next meeting.

Their surprised faces quickly turned to shock seeing Sirius standing there holding you in his arms looking panicked.

Sirius lay you on the kitchen table, still conscious but face screwed up in pain, sweat dripping profusely from your forehead.

“My arm!” You gasped clutching your elbow. “It feels like Its breaking! Sirius!” You looked at him with wide eyes. “I saw him! The second flash of light. I didn’t recognise him - he was short, he had long blond hair, a goatee, and a big scar running down his left cheek.”

You screwed your eyes up at the effort of staying conscious. This was the worst pain you had ever felt and it wasn’t stopping. It felt like shards of your bones were breaking off one by one starting at your hand and resonating down to your elbow.

Over your head Sirius and Remus looked at each other. “That’s Dalziel.” Said Remus. “He’s a B-tier Death Eater.” In your agonising state you still managed to look questioningly at Remus. B-tier?

“He’s a drunk.” Answered Arthur correctly analysing your confusion. “Voldemort wouldn’t use him for anything serious as he is often not on the best form, still…” he scratched his chin, “it may be worth it to check out what he and his colleagues were up to.”

Examining your arm, Arthur turned to his son, “Bill let’s take Y/N back to the Burrow with us. She seems to be losing the bones in her arm piece by piece.”

“It’s ok!” He said quickly catching your horrified expression. “Molly can contain the curse and then give you a potion to grow them back overnight.”

“Skele-Gro?” You asked weakly as Sirius said “Surely Remus and I can look after Y/N here?”

Arthur patted him on the shoulder and replied “don’t worry, with six boys Molly has repaired many broken bones before, Y/N is in good hands. You should rest, if you hadn’t brought her back here straight away this could have been much worse.” He turned to you once more now smiling and said “Anyway, Charlie is home and I know he is anxious to see you!”

“Charlie is back?” You asked startled. It had been an age since you had seen your good friend. Only a couple of years apart at Hogwarts you had bonded over a mutual love for magical creatures and the rest of your friendship was history. Smiling weakly at the memory of summer holidays at the Burrow you allowed yourself to be scooped up by Bill and carried out the door.

Before he left Arthur turned to Sirius, “great work tonight, with any luck we will be able to halt whatever unscrupulous side business Dalziel is running, and no need to be concerned, Y/N will be well in no time. Molly’s healing skills not withstanding, Charlie will perk her up – they were thick as thieves at Hogwarts.” He smiled warmly and added “ so much so Molly and I thought they would have got engaged had he not left to chase dragons in Romania!” Missing the mortified look on Sirius’ face, Arthur tipped his hat to Remus and followed his son out the door.

Sirius ran his hand through his hair as Remus poured two large glasses of fire whiskey. Handing one to Sirius, Remus pondered before asking; “there is one thing I don’t understand though. Why did Dalziel send a curse for Y/N’s arm?”

“He was aiming for my head.” Sirius said before draining his glass in one.

“Your head?” Said Remus incredulously. “I knew he was a bad shot but really!?”

“Y/N’s arm was wrapped around my head.” Try as he might Sirius couldn’t disguise his pleasure while uttering this statement.

“Oh Padfoot, you didn’t?!” Remus exclaimed. Knowing Sirius in his younger years this was not completely out of the ordinary but did Sirius suddenly look slightly bashful?

“It’s not what you think, Moony…unfortunately” beseeched Sirius “Look, pour me another one and I’ll fill you in.”

———

Over at the Burrow you had a long night ahead of you. Molly had stopped the curse from continuing to break off shards of your bones and administered a solution of Skele-Gro. Now you just had to wait for the pain to pass.

It was great to see Charlie, you had missed your friend and couldn’t wait to hear about his adventures. However the regrowth of your bones was so painful Molly had insisted of giving you a sleeping draught in the hope you would sleep through the more painful parts of the healing process.

Charlie had offered you his bed while he took the couch downstairs, so it was in a small but cosy room where multiple posters of dragons watched you close your eyes while thinking of Sirius’ hands, his perfect mouth, and the taste of him, as you fell into a dreamless sleep.

Sirius was still up. After explaining the majority of the night’s events to Remus, Sirius’ adrenaline had started to finally die down.

“How was it?” Remus asked after a moments silence.

“It was hard.” Sirius answered thinking he was referring to the mission in general.

“I bet it was!” Remus laughed his hazel eyes twinkling with mirth.

Sirius threw his head back and barked out a laugh and the two of them chatted happily for the next hour. As they finished their drinks, Remus stood to leave. Casting one look at Sirius he paused before speaking: “they are probably not more than friends, Padfoot.”

Sirius raised his head and gave a tight lipped smile, nodding to his friend as he followed Arthur’s route out the door and into the night.

Hopefully Remus was right. Sirius rubbed his jaw. He was fairly certain the feeling was mutual between you and himself. Tired yet feeling somewhat elated, Sirius gathered himself up, made his way upstairs and got ready for bed. He hoped you were all right and not in too much pain. He wanted to see you desperately and tell you he had very much enjoyed this evening.

Though kissing him was part of a cover, the way you touched him and moved your lips against his was, he was sure, not. Maybe it was wishful thinking but the sparks that flew when you kissed and the look in your eyes when he held you said something.

Dozing lightly with thoughts pouring through his head, Sirius decided that he would go and see you tomorrow, bring you coffee and gauge where your feelings were at. Hopefully they matched his.

He smiled slightly in his doze and allowed himself to recall your legs wrapped around and squeezing his waist.

Though his sleep was not dreamless like yours, it was just as pleasant and invigorating.

———

You were awake early, your arm had fully recovered and after a hearty breakfast at the Weasley’s you were feeling good, better than good…

“What are you grinning at?” Charlie gently shoved your shoulder. He had offered to escort you to work for two reasons: 1. He wanted to drop in on his father who had left for the Ministry before anyone else was awake; and 2. To help you stop his mother fussing over you.

“Nothing!” You lied trying to hide your smile. “Just really pleased with Sirius and my work on the mission last night.”

“Oh yeah? Which ‘work’ would you be referring to?” Charlie held up his hands and mimed quotation marks in mid air as he said the word: work. “Don’t forget, sister from another mister, I can read you like a book!”

You rolled your eyes and blew a raspberry poking Charlie through the Ministry entrance.

————

Sirius was having a good morning as well. He woke early, got up, dressed, and made his way out of the house with a plan to visit you at work and see where the land lay. Wearing fitted black jeans and a light blue shirt Sirius looked fresh and handsome. Certainly the barista at the coffee shop thought so and told him as such. Chuckling quietly to himself Sirius picked up two coffees and continued on his way to the Ministry.

————

“So this is your office?” Charlie hummed approvingly looking around at a large mahogany room on the first floor. “Shared office” you corrected “all the junior aurors have a desk in here.” As you placed your jacket on your chair you caught sight of a cell phone on your desk. “Oh bugger, I left my phone here last night.” Noticing the 20 missed calls flashing across the screen you looked at Charlie, “is there any chance your Mum called my parents and told them what happened last night?”

Charlie shrugged “probably, you know my Mother, she worries!” As he said that your phone vibrated in your hand indicating an incoming call. Most of your wizarding friends didn’t keep or know about a cell phone, it was surprising yours was working surrounded by a lot of magic, most muggle technology didn’t, but you figured your Mother’s determination to get hold of you knew no bounds – especially when she thought you were in trouble.

“Mum! Hi! …yes…no I’m fine…it’s just a…it’s just a scratch.” Charlie grinned while flipping through the case files on your desk. Your Mother reminded him of his and he would not want to be you right now. You will have to make it up to her for worrying her so.

“Mum I can’t hear you? It’s cutting…I’m at work…let’s talk Friday night at dinner?”

“FRIDAY NIGHT LETS DO DINNER?” You half yelled down the phone while slapping Charlie’s hand away from the perfectly ordered files on your desk. You were proud of those and he did treat you like a little sister - messing up your hair at any chance he got, tripping you up in corridors - you wouldn’t put it past him to ‘accidentally’ spill your papers on the floor. He was really like Fred and George sometimes.

“I’ll see you latter, gonna go find Dad” he mouthed backing out of the room. You nodded and resumed your conversation on the phone: “Ok Mum…ok…” god the signal was awful in here. “I LOVE YOU!”

“I LOVE YOU TOO, DARLING!” yelled Charlie in jest as you hung up the phone. He grinned cheekily and walked out the door.

You poked your tongue out at him and silently thanked the timing gods that none of your colleagues were in and no one had heard that conversation.

Someone did hear it though, or at least part of it…

He had heard ‘Dinner on Friday’ Followed by ‘ love you’ with the final blow seeing Charlie Weasley back out of your office proclaiming that he loved you too.

Sirius stood frozen on the first floor landing, holding two coffees and feeling his heart drop to the floor. ~more than friends~

That was the moment when Sirius realised he was in love with you. It was also when he started sleeping around.
