As they finally came up to the area surrounding the lake, Sirius led Allie to a quiet spot under a shady tree. Taking a seat and leaning back into the trunk, he looked up, smiling and patted the patch of grass next to him, inviting Allie to join him.

James smiled, looking at their hands. He looked at her, and without thinking, without planning it, he kissed her. He blushed brightly as he realized what he had done. "Um...that was a bit...sudden again."

ooc: HPB!!Heehee.

Taking a look at the mention hill, Sirius replied, "A few times with the guys, thou it usually ends with one or more of us in the hospital wing for some injury or another." Laughing at the memories of a few times, he added, "May be fun for a while, but the landing is killer."

ooc: I do too I don't know

Sirius half-shrugged, "Ok, once more shouldn't hurt." Getting up to walk over to the edge, he held out a hand to help Allie up.

ooc: Gotto go.

Allie took Sirius' hand and got up. She started to walk towards the hill with him. "You didn't break anything by any chance, did you?" She asked him because he didn't seem all that enthusiastic about it.

Sirius laughed and replyed, "Nope, never! More bruises and the occasional scrape." Now more enthusiatic, he got down to the ground ready to roll and waited for Allie to get ready before adding, "REady when you are."

ooc: ok

Joining her in her laughter, he watched her for a moment before lauching himself down the hill after her. It was all fun till he unwilling crashed into somebody, a Slytherin somebody. and they both landed at the botttom of the hill with a thud.

ooc: and its not Severus
bic:

"Ouch! Watch where you are going, Gryffindor." he replied turning to his 'attacker'

"Sorrry, snake, Didn't see you there. What where you're walking next time." Sirius replied getting up and looking at who he had crashed into.

"Sirius!" "Regulus!" they both shouted in shock before Regulus, the 'proper' son, stalked away.

Sirius had still been watching his brother's retreating back when he was brought back by Allie's question. "Yeah, I'm fine I guess," lowering his head for a moment. Looking back up he went, "You'd never know anymore how close we once were, well until the stupid pure-blood ideas of my parents and his housemates corrupted him." He was trying to stay calm, despite the feeling of hurt he bottled up inside.

Sighing, Sirius turned to Allie. Seeing her smile and try to reassure him, he smiled back and let her take his arm and lead him away. As they walked, Sirius gently squeezed Allie's hand and said, "Thank you."

ooc: fine then...I'll take Anna...and after this lesson, we can all go down to dinner.

"Your Welcome." She said as she walked with him, not sure where to go. She looked at her watch and her eyes widened. "Do you realise we have DADA in three minutes?" She asked him. "Accio bag." Soon, her bag came zooming out of the Gryffindor Tower and into her hands. "Accio Sirius' bag." She said and soon, Sirius' bag came zooming out towards her. She handed his bag to him and said. "I think we better hurry."

Anna walked towards the DADA classroom, her bag slumped on her shoulder, waiting for the new Professor to open the door. It is so weird, that they never had a DADA teacher who lasted longer than one year. She wondered what will happen to this one.

About to reply to Allie's question, Sirius stopped as she called their bags. Taking his from Allie he nodded took her hand and replied, "Then lets go!" as he ran towards the classroom with Allie at his heels. Darn, he thought, its times like these I wish I could be in Padfoot form. Makes the run quicker.

Allie followed Sirius and started to run towards the classroom, whith him holding her hand. I don't want to be late. She thought. Wish I could turn into a rabbit.

Anna looked around and found a couple of people around, but no Gryffindor was there yet. Wonder what is taking them so long. She thought as the classroom door opened.

"Morning evenryone." Said Professor Smith. "Come right in." She said as she let her student's in. "Welcome to DADA. I am Cassie Smith and I will be your DADA teacher for this year." She smiled at them.

Finally they reached the classroom and Sirius was seriously out of breath,(no pun intended ) Thankfully the professor had just opened the door so they could walk in with the rest of the class.

Taking a deep breath, he scanned the group and spotted Anna and smiled, but the smile turned into a frown as he took a seat in the classroom since Lily and James were nowhere to be found.

Allie walked into the classroom with Sirius, out of breath. She smiled at Anna and gave an apologetic smile to the Professor as she took her seat next to Anna. "Hey." She said and then looked around the classroom. Lily and James weren't there yet. She drew out her parchment and quill and wrote a quick note to Lily.

Quote:

Lily. DADA. Hurry Up.

She sent the note to her and looked at Sirius, who had a frown on his face. It was a sort of frown that made one laugh. But she resisted and just grinned as she waited for Professor Smith to continue.

Anna smiled at Sirius and Allie as they took their seats. "Hey." She replied to Allie. "What took you so long? And where are the others?"She asked her and Sirius.

"I would like it if you called me Cassie though." She said. "I don't like being called Professor Smith." She smiled at her class and then said. "I have a little test for you today." She said. "To know where you stand in DADA." She smiled as she passed the test around. "Your time starts now." She said and walked over to her desk and sat down as she read a book, with an occational glance at her students.
