EVER SINCE THE big announcement, all that anyone could talk about was the upcoming quidditch event. House rivalry was at its peak, each house team wanting as many of their players on the school team as possible, proving their worth.
Sign up sheets had been littered around the school for days now, names of anyone from first years, who were just excited at the thought of seeing a real life broomstick, to advanced seventh years, determined to make their last year count. But at last, the morning of tryouts had arrived.
After being woken up by pure excitement at 5:00am, Isabelle had decided she might as well head down to the bathroom and shower before the rest of the eager students woke up with the same intentions. Freshly cleaned and dressed in her quidditch robes, which she already owned due to being a successful chaser on the Gryffindor quidditch team for many years now, Isabelle slipped quietly through her dorm, careful not to wake the others, and snuck out into the tranquil common room.
Sitting down with her head buried in a book, like she always did when she was trying to ease her nerves, Isabelle didn't notice another figure enter the common room until he was right behind her.
Sirius's P.O.V
Tryout day. Took long enough. After attempting to wake up James to go get breakfast with me (and being thoroughly beat up by a deflated pillow until I shut up in response) I gave up trying and headed out to eat without him.
That was until I saw her.
Head bent over an open book, eyebrows furrowed in concentration, the sun reflecting off her chocolate brown hair and ocean blue eyes...
Woah woah woah!
Shut up Sirius! You're acting like you're in love with her or something?
But what if I am?
You don't even know her that well!
Two sides of my brain battled for dominance, totally throwing me off my game. What was she doing to me? No. I would not let her do this to me. Not today.
Flustered and frustrated, I sauntered up to the girl and snatched the book out of her hands. "Whatcha readin'?" I said while flipping absentmindedly through the illustrated pages. I could see annoyance spark in her eyes as she snarled back, "Nothing anymore."
As she rolled her eyes and reached out the grab the book back, I stood up and held it up high out of her reach, causing her to stand up.
I knew I was being a total pain in the arse, but I couldn't let these... feelings, or whatever they were, affect me. Obviously just the nerves.
Right?
After a few more minutes of me provoking Isabelle, she finally cracked, raising her wand high to hex me.
Crap.
Think fast Black! I thought to myself as my subconscious egged me on. Come on, what is Sirius Black best at? Now, if I do say so myself, I am first and foremost certainly a charming young man who has no problem wooing the ladies.
My devilishly good looks are an extremely close second though.
Suddenly whirring back to reality, the voices bickering inside of my head, telling me what to do, clicked off in my brain as Isabelle's raised arm was about to do some real damage. I took hold of her arm, pushing her into the wall. For a single moment, we locked eyes with an intensity that she perfectly matched as I whispered softly in her ear "Want to try that again, Izzy?"
She gracefully slipped out from under my grasp, holding my gaze with a fire of rage and passion burning in her eyes for one final second before strutting away, her middle finger aimed in my direction.
As she left, a grumpy James dragged himself into the common room, quite literally, on his hands and knees, mumbling something about needing coffee, but my gaze remained on the portrait door where Isabelle had just exited. Feeling stressed, confused, angry and flustered, her face replaced the millions of quidditch thoughts that had been there just minutes ago, causing my brain to hurt.
Isabelle Laurent, what have you done to me.
