"I... It's...." Sirius sighed.
"What? Are you going to ask me out to be another one of the girls you dump a few weeks later?" I questioned, narrowing my eyes.
"No! Never! I... You've been my friend since first year. I'd never do that to you," Sirius replied slowly.
"So... What then?" I asked.
He opened his mouth several times, then suddenly James disappeared up the stairs. Both of us stared then Sirius turned back to face me. He muttered a question I barely got, but understand what he wanted. Without waiting for my answer, he followed James up the stairs.
I sat on the couch, picked up a book, and was there for about an hour. I put down the book and sighed, then glanced around the common room. I spotted an ink jar and a spare piece of parchment laying on one of the tables. I wandered over to it, and with a flourish, wrote one word on it, and folded it up.
I snuck up the stairs, hoping no one was awake quite yet. I put the piece of paper on the table beside Sirius' bed, and glanced at him. His eyes flashed, and I jumped, flying back and almost landing on James' bed.
Sirius stared at me, then hissed, "What are you doing here?"
"I.... I was.. You asked me something, before you came back upstairs, right?"
Sirius didn't reply, but he head moved in a slight nodding motion.
"I figured.... I thought... I needed to give you an answer. And well..." I trailed off and glanced out the window.
Sirius' eyes moved towards the table and spotted the piece of parchment paper. He picked it up and unfolded it, the noise sending chills up my spine.
The one minute long silence was unbearable, and I was about to get up and leave, when a soft whisper broke the silence. "Yes? And you mean it?"
I sighed and nodded my head slowly, hoping he could see it.
