The Hogwarts Player (Sirius Black x Fem!Reader ) ( Re-Write )

Chapter 4 - Lily, just kill me now.

This is it. O.W.Ls have arrived.

I've been dreading this week for months, a week with nothing but assessments and papers and stress. I've been studying endlessly and it's finally here. Welp, let's hope it pays off, for Merlin's sake and mine. I looked around my dorm as I rubbed my eyes. "Hang on- where are the girls?" I spoke aloud to myself as I glanced at the empty beds surrounding me. I glanced at the clock and froze. The clock read 08:45. I had 15 minutes before first period... 15 minutes before my first O.W.L. I very quickly flung on my robes, ran a brush thought my hair, brushed my teeth and ran down to breakfast.

I sprinted into the great hall with about 5 minutes before the end of breakfast. I very quickly started eating some toast with my friends' laughter echoing in my ears. "You lot are a pain in the arse! You should've woken me up!" I scolded my friends just as the bell went. The girls laughed. "Sorry, y/n. You just looked so peaceful." Lily held back a giggle as she spoke. I huffed as I got up and headed out for my first O.W.L, Potions.

When I say that I have never experienced anything worse than that, I mean it. Now, I'm actually good at potions, but I completely forgot how to brew the potion they requested. I stood there like a blithering idiot until Lily mouthed the answer to me. I was extremely grateful. I know, I know, cheating is bad. But I did know it deep down, I just couldn't remember. When leaving the exam area I saw Severus Snape with a proud... I wouldn't call it a smile on his face. I met up with Lily and placed my head against her shoulder. "Lily, just kill me now. End my suffering from these demonic exams." I complained. Lily lightly pushed me off "Oh come on y/n. It wasn't so bad.". I scoffed "Lily you had to tell me an answer! How was that not so bad?" Almost as soon as the words left my mouth, I saw a shadow cast over me. Sirius Black was leaning against the wall in front of me, blocking my path. "Miss y/l/n, cheating on an Ordinary Wizarding Level exam is unacceptable. You'll be having detention with myself, Professor Black... up in my dorm." he winked. I attempted to lightly shove him out of my way. "Really Sirius? I'd bet anything that you'd cheat if you got the chance!" I huffed. Sirius chuckled. "On a test, maybe. But on you? Never in my lifetime, darling." I scoffed, rolling my eyes at the boy before me. "Sirius just get out of my way, I'm busy!" I huffed. I heard a low chuckle come from Sirius as he leaned closer, whispering "Okay, I'll leave you alone for now, but sweetheart you'll be falling into my arms soon enough." he winked at me before walking away. "I hate that boy with a burning passion." I huffed before walking in the opposite direction he had.

Next up, Transfiguration O.W.L.

This one was written so I was shitting myself when I forgot the incantation for one of the spells, I just went back to that question at the end. This one felt like the most pressure... Professor McGonagall is my favourite professor, I don't want to let her down. It doesn't help she's head of Gryffindor, that makes it worse if I fail, I'm letting down her in the class and her as a house head. These thoughts swirled around my head the entire exam. Oh thank Merlin James let me borrow his transfiguration notes last week.

I headed out of the hall and waited for Dorcas to appear, Lily and Marlene were heading for their next O.W.L while Dorcas and I had some free time. She came out of the hall... but she was hand in hand with Marls. Turns out, Marlene and Lily's next O.W.L, history of magic, was postponed because Professor Binns got stuck in a loop of teaching so badly that he couldn't get out of it. So, Lily had wandered off with Mary to study, Dorcas and Marls were probably off on one of their walks, those two are the absolute cutest, so here I was, walking the halls of Hogwarts in desperate need to something to do. Just as I was about to head to the common room, the perfect opportunity appeared. The Hufflepuff quidditch team was just leaving the quidditch pitch. I know a kid in Hufflepuff, their name is Mia, I asked them if there were any other bookings for the pitch today. "Nope, the pitch is free for the rest of the day!" Mia grinned at me as they spoke, clearly knowing exactly why I was asking. "Thanks Mia!" I smiled before waving goodbye to them.

I raced to the quidditch pitch, using accio to summon my broom and mounted it. I grinned as i flew into the air, feeling the wind rush past me as i weaved around in the air. Flying felt so freeing... so comfortable. It felt like home up in the sky. I swooped down and opened one of the trunks used for practicing. I took out the quaffle, making sure the bludgers stayed chained down before flying back up. I began tossing the quaffle into the air and catching it, throwing it further and lower each time to practice my speed. This was exactly what I needed. The wind blowing around me, soaring through the air in peace and quiet... which lasted a while of 10 minutes.

Next thing I know, all I'm hearing is Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen (a muggle band) blasting from, of course, the Gryffindor Common Room. I huffed, knowing exactly who was responsible for this as I flew towards the window of the common room which was wide open. "Sirius Black I swear to Merlin you better turn that music down! I'm trying to practice quidditch here!" I groaned. Sirius poked his head of messy black hair out the window. "What was that love? Couldn't hear you!" I rolled my eyes at his words. "Don't call me love! And I said turn down the music!" I was getting pissed now. "Ohhhhh, but it's Queen!" he laughed. "Sirius just turn it down a litttle please?" I said, starting to give up. Sirius looked at me for a second before, to my disbelief, turning down his record. "There, have fun with Quidditch y/n/n" he smiled at me before heading back in, closing the window. I hovered there, confused. Did Sirius Black actually listen? I shook my head and flew back down to practice.

I spent hours just flying around, concentrating on the quaffle and just... feeling free. I always adored quidditch for that feeling of freedom Id get from it. Anyways, now it's about dinner time, i headed for the great hall. I sat down in my usual spot... but the girls weren't there. I assumed they were studying together or something and just started eating. It was strangely quiet... too quiet. I looked around and noticed almost the entire Gryffindor table was empty. This could only mean one thing: Party in the common room. I rushed to finish my dinner before speeding out, making my way to the common room as fast as I could. Usually I'm not a party person... but one party wouldn't hurt. I slipped through the crowded common room and headed to my dorm.

I walked into the quiet room, the only noise being the muffled music from downstairs. It seemed to be casual outfits so I put on my favourite red top, a pair of black jeans and brown boots (sort of like ugg's). I then put on natural looking makeup and braided my hair (A/N - unless your hair isn't long enough to be braided, then your preferred style) before heading downstairs.

The room was abuzz with chatter and laughter, a typical gryffindor party. "Guys, Gals, Non Binary Pals and anyone in between may you all gather round!" The voice of James Potter echoed in the room. (A/N - I had to add the non binary and anyone in between because here we love the HP universe but we don't stan the creator ☺️)
I followed the masses to sit around the small coffee table. "So, as you know," James continued "a Gryffindor party wouldn't be a Gryffindor party without a game of sorts. Now I invite you all to nominate two people to come forward and wear blindfolds for a blind kiss game! Though, both blind kissers must be willing to take part, we aren't having non-consensual kisses people!" James chuckled. "Y/n you should play!" Lily yelled. Eyes started turning to me, I lightly glared at Lily. "You know what, fine. I'm in." I spoke as I walked to the front to get my blindfold. I put it in and was guided to a seat. The other blindfolded person was Teagan Simmons, a girl from Ravenclaw, her sister was in Gryffindor.

I sat there as the room fell silent, only whispers being heard. I felt a hand reach to mine which I took. Whoever the mystery person was put on a silly voice as they asked "May I hold your waist?" I smiled and nodded. I felt a hand gently land on my waist and next thing I knew, someone's lips met mine...

A/N - IM ALIVE- anyways, tbh i keep forgetting I have Wattpad 🥲 I'll try remember and keep writing this though! I do enjoy it, it's just I'm in mock exam season at school so there's not much spare time for me. Stay safe everyone! Bye!
