Double Agent Stamps! Sirius sits down next to Marcella. He has no right to interfere in her life anymore, but for some reason he is drawn to her yet again. Sirius needs to feel useful again. He needs Marcella back in his life again even if it's just as a sparring partner. Sirius doesn't want to fight with her. He just wants to be near her again and feel like she needs him again. "Please don't remind me. I must have been insane when I agreed to teach this term. I don't know the first thing about teaching kids tranfiguration. I'll probably turn into Snuffles the first day of class and growl at them until they learn to behave." Sirius laughs at himself and his ridiculous comment. "Seriously, I've been meaning to check on you since I got back to Hogwarts. I've been too wrapped up in my own self pity to care if anyone else lived or died." Sirius pauses for a moment realizing he had already put his foot in his mouth. He sits there wondering how he can politely get it out and not look more foolish than he already is. "So what's that book your reading?" |
