Soulmates

Chapter 5

Grace had come back very late this night, she  said she was visting Black along with Potter and Remus. By now everyone else slept but I just couldn't close my eyes. So I decided to go for a walk. I put on my shoes and a Gryffindorpullover. Then I walked out of the common room. I hadn't payed attention to where I was going and was surprised when I found myself in front of the Hospital Wing. Quietly I slipped in and saw that only one bed was occupied. It was Black's. He looked so peacefully, but also very pale. It was odd seeing him like this. Without a dirty smirk on his beautiful face. What the hell are you thinking Lily! His face isn't beautiful! Slowly I stepped closer to his bed. It was more an instinct than an actual wish to be closer to him. When I stood next to him I smelled his typical scent. He smelled like dog but also like sandalwood and French marigold. Slowly I bent down and stroke his hair from his forehead. Then listening to an inward urge I softly kissed him. His lips softer than I expected. But as soon as I reconized what I was donig, I pulled away and ran out of the Hospital Wing to the Astronomytower. I always go there when I'm upset or confused. I stayed there until sunrise and thought about what happend tonight. Why did I kissed him? And why did I go to the hospitalwing? When it was about 5 in the morning I went back to the common room and changed for todays day. When I was ready the other girls woke up and Alice, Grace and I went to breakfast. When we got there I was surprised to see Black sitting at the Gryffindortable. "Siri!", Grace exclaimed and ran to him to hug him tightly. "Gracie! When did you got here?", he greated her. "Two days ago. You were just passed out", she explained. "I can't believe I have missed that!" Alice and I sat down quietly while they were talking. When Potter and his gang entered the greathall they stormed to Black and tacklked him to the ground. "Wow Prongs! Calm down mate!", Black said but had a huge grin on his face. It looked kinda cute. Stop Lily! He isn't cute!  "You woke up! You woke up Padfoot!", Potter exclaimed happy as a little child on Christmas. "Yes, I did", he confirmed. "But I'm disappointed with you guys. You haven't pulled a prank yet. Gracie here is really bored and we can't let that happen, can we?" "Of course not! I have plenty of plans!" Oh Merlin, please not!  "But don't forget to set the tryouts! I want to join Gryffindorteam", Grace remembered him. "How could I forget Quidditch?" "Well when Siri was passed out you told me to shut up", she reasoned. "Aww, were you worried?", Black asked. "They told us only your soulmate could wake you up. So there was only a tiny chance... By the way who was it? Who woke you up?", Remus asked. "I don't know. I couldn't see her. The only thing I can remember is her smell...", he trailed off in memory. I nearly swallowed my pumkin juice, what made them notice me. "Oi Evans, what are you doing here? Want to sent Padfoot to the hospitalwing again?", Potter snapped. "No, I came here with Grace and Alice and we're eating, if you can't tell", I snapped back. Then I took my belongings and went to my first lesson. Unluckily it was Divination which I had with the Marauders.
