Sirius Black's birthday was an event everybody at Hogwarts was forced to be aware of, every single year on November 3rd. And this year, his 16th birthday was promising to be his most chaotic yet.

For weeks James Potter had been planning. Confetti cannons at breakfast, skip class for a trip to Hogsmeade to get some Zonko's gifts, lunch in the castle, pranks during the afternoon classes, and then he and the Marauders would sneak down to the quidditch pitch after dark for drinks and fireworks to wake up the castle and annoy everybody at school.

And, thus far Sirius had been nothing but excited about this day. However, ever since the day after Halloween his head had been in the clouds.

James blamed it on a hangover, Remus just thought he was being daft, and Peter blamed it on some kind of spell.

None of that could have been further from the truth, which was that Sirius had spent every single moment since Halloween replaying his kiss with Chloé in his mind.

Her lips, her scent, her hair, the feeling of her in his hands, the sounds she made. All of it was addictive, and now that Sirius had had a taste, he couldn't get enough.

Which was why, while Chloé was making her way down to dinner she had been grabbed by an arm coming out of a broom cupboard and now found herself in said broom cupboard, snogging Sirius Black.

"Sirius" she whined against his lips "I'm hungry"

He chuckled, kissing his way along her jawline "I know, darling, but I needed to taste your lips before dinner. Makes everything taste... sweeter"

Chloé giggled, tugging on his black curls to bring their lips back together in a messy collision of tongue and teeth. "You could always have them for dessert" she mumbled

"I have something else sweet in mind for that" he replied, grinning wickedly.

The Veela blushed, "You know, this all would be so much easier if we just told everybody. Then we could stop sneaking around"

He raised his eyebrows "That desperate to snog me in public, Laurent?"

Chloé rolled her eyes "No, but eventually Filch is going to find us in one of these cupboards and then-"

"-he can watch if he wants" shrugged Sirius.

The girl broke away from his lips with a laugh "Horny much, Black?"

Sirius smirked, creeping both of his hands up the hem of her shirt to squeeze bare the soft skin of her waist, pulling her even tighter against him. "Can you blame me, darling? It's hard to control myself when I have you kissing me like this"

She smiled against his next kiss, but then her stomach rumbled loudly and the two teenagers broke apart with laughter.

"I told you I was hungry" she complained, trying to smooth out her hair as best she could

Sirius grinned. "Yes, however, I didn't hear you complaining about me kissing you"

Chloé scowled playfully "I am not complaining, but even your kisses are not reason enough to miss out on food"

Black grabbed her by the waist again and before she could stop him Sirius had brought his mouth down against hers again. "Maybe I should kiss you some more and you'll change your mind"

She allowed herself to enjoy the kiss for a moment before pushing his chest to detach their lips

"Dinner, Sirius. Come on" she said firmly

Black sighed "Fine. I'll head out in two minutes. I need to um, compose myself"

Her eyes shot down to his obvious hard on in his jeans. "Hm, maybe if you hadn't grabbed me right before dinner I could have helped. But goodbye, Sirius!" she beamed, leaving him flabbergasted behind her
