(Yes I completely changed this chapter cause I kinda hated it)

Izzy opened her eyes and felt a familiar body wrapped around hers causing her to instinctively move closer, pressing her head against his chest. Suddenly she shot up remembering the events of the previous day. Sirius stirred as well his eyes opening as Izzy started to pace in front of the couch they had been sleeping on.

"Iz, what's wrong?" Sirius asked blearily rubbing his eyes.

"I need to talk to my brother about what happened" Izzy stated, still unsure about the choice but needing to do something.

"Come sit down for a second, you need a minute to think" he reached out grabbing her hand to stop her mid pace.

She looked at him and sighed "Moving helps me think"

"No moving distracts you from the fact that your boyfriend cheated on you with your brother" Sirius said bluntly.

"Piss off" Izzy said trying to move her hand out of Sirius's firm grip.

"Just sit down" He grumbled pulling her down to the couch next to him.

"Happy?" She smiled sarcastically

"Very" Sirius grinned back "Now how about you explain what happened a little more clearly then last night because no offense, Moony doesn't seem like he would do that to you. Also just to be sure I understand completely, Remus Lupin, your brother, was making out with Thomas Harrington, your boyfriend." He raised a questioning brow.

"Correct" Izzy nodded "I know it sounds crazy but it happened"

"I just didn't know that Moony was..." Sirius's voice trailed off.

"Yah neither did I" She sighed "I wish he'd told me"

"For the record, I think your 'talking to Remus' idea was a good one I just wanted you to sit down and stop hurting that brilliant mind of yours for a minute" He smirked.

"Flattering my mind, that's new" Izzy laughed

"Maybe I want something different" Sirius looked directly into her eyes as though he was searching for an answer to a question he never asked.

"Different might be nice" She felt her lips curve into a smile.

"I think so too" Sirius said his gaze flickering down to her lips.

Izzy leaned in for a brief second almost letting their lips brush before pulling away smirking "I think different us should move slow"

"You're a bloody tease woman" Sirius scowled as she got up from the couch and started up the stairs towards Remus's dormitory.

"You wanted different" Izzy laughed as she left the common room.

When she got to Remus's room a sudden panic took over her as she reached to knock on the door, realizing that she didn't know what to say to him and had no plan whatsoever. She started to turn back when the door whipped open and her half awake brother stumbled into her.

"Pardon me- Izzy?" Remus shook his head as though he couldn't believe his eyes.

"Yes that would be the name of the sister you've known since birth" Izzy stated hoping to distract him with her usual back talk long enough to formulate a plan.

"What are you- aren't you- you-" He stuttered clearly unable to be as quick on his feet as Izzy.

"You're going to have to speak coherently if we're to have a decent conversation" She sighed

"Erm right" Remus rubbed his eyes before opening his door and stepping through "Why don't we go into my room"

"Alright" Izzy followed him, glad to have this conversation in a more private venue. She looked around at the familiar room where she'd spent most of her first year. Sunlight was streaming through his small window which had two potted plants happily soaking in the rays on the window sill. Various band posters were plastered around the room, most of them being David Bowie. Though the decorations had changed it still held the same warmth and comfort that it had all those years ago.
