Elegantly Wasted: Sirius Black

32- Gardening

________________________28th December 1976

Laurie and Sirius quickly found out how much they liked being around each other. Not that they didn't before but now in Laurie's home, they were completely alone without disturbance.

You might think that they would use this alone time to just shag and get it over with. But Laurie had other plans for that. She decided that she would make him wait. It seemed like with every other boy they would always move too fast and Laurie figured that maybe that's where she went wrong.

Don't get her wrong it was incredibly hard to resist Sirius but she had to. She wanted him to respect her first. Anyway, it's not like she didn't want to engage in any sexual activity.

Sirius was also finding it hard to resist the temptation that was Laurie Devereux, but he would respect her wishes even if he did think she would back down from it sooner rather than later.

"Laur, why is there no kitchen roll in the kitchen?!" Sirius shouted across the house but received no reply. He had just spilt orange juice all over the counter top and he had to clean it before Laurie saw.

He trudged up the stairs and barged into the first bathroom, he hadn't heard the shower water running.

Sirius opened the door and caught sight of the girl he was bewitched by, standing there naked with steaming water running down her body. It was the hottest image he had ever seen. He wasn't sure what to do with himself, he just stood there awkwardly hoping she would notice him.

Laurie turned to see the boy standing in the doorway, she wasn't startled by him, more amused that he was watching her. "Enjoying the show, Black?" she smiled, trying to tell in a laugh.

He couldn't even speak, he simply gulped and then nodded. Seeing him try to hide the tension in his trousers, Laurie let out the most genuine laugh.

"Come and join me." Laurie offered.

"You said no sex." he reminded.

"You can still get in the shower with me and not have sex."

After that Sirius did not hesitate to close the door and strip himself of his clothes. He opened the shower door and stepped in.

Laurie gave herself a second to look at him, steaming water rolling off his back, hair getting damper. The more she started she could feel the heat rise to her cheeks.

"Like what you see?" Sirius asked stupidly.

"Shut up you fool." she hissed in embarrassment. The truth was she was already regretting the no-sex rule that she had made.

"I know it's hard resisting all of this Laur, but you made up this silly rule." Sirius wrapped his arms around her back, pulling her body close to his.

"I am managing just fine, thank you." she fired back.

He laughed at her and just as he leaned in for a kiss, they heard the front door same shut. Soon the voice of James potter boomed through the halls of the house. "Laurie!"

The soaking pair jumped apart quickly and stared at each other in horror. "Why is he here!" Laurie whisper shouting, swinging her arms as if she was going to hit Sirius because of James.
