Brightest ✯ Sirius Black

✯ six ✯

"There's no need to repeat yourself. I ignored you just fine the first time."

All they really had to do was go to library and find a book that would tell them the process in which to become Animagi. Professor McGonagall hadn't scared them one bit, not like she had hoped. In fact, they were even more willing to go about learning the difficult magic for the sole purpose of proving her wrong.

 Sirius, who rarely ever came to the library, sat at a table near the back, flipping through pages of transfiguration textbooks lazily. Peter was across from him, actually taking notes on things and James was wandering the aisles in search of more books, but everyone knew what he was actually looking for.

"Evans!" he whisper-shouted at her as her back was turned. The redhead slammed her book shut in surprise and whipped around, coming face to face with none other than James Potter.

"Potter!" she exclaimed, far more confused at him being there than anything else. "What are you doing here?"

He chuckled. "I do come to the library, Evans," he smirked.

"Well," she stuttered, startled by his presence. "Go about your business then," she said with a wave of her hand.

"Well, that's actually what I came to you for," he said, turning more solemn than he was before. "I need your help with something."

"Make it quick, Potter, I'm kind of busy," she said, side glancing to a table near the window where Remus, Cleo, Luna, and Indie all sat.

"I need a to find Mirawak's Book for Transformative Magizoology," he started, hoping she wouldn't ask why.

"Why?"

He sighed. "For Defense Against the Dark Arts," he made up quickly.

"We did those assignments in third year," she said, confused.

"Yes I know that but I really need to remember what we learned, I'm... tutoring..." he stuttered, knowing fully well she wouldn't believe him.

"You're tutoring," she raised an eyebrow and gave him a look. "Who are you tutoring, Sirius?"

James rolled his eyes. "Please Lily," he begged. Perhaps it was the fact that she had never seen him look at her like that, let alone look like that at all. Almost, desperate. He sincerely needed her, and for some reason, she couldn't say no.

"Alright fine, I'll find a book for you, but promise me one thing," she said, trying to stop him from giving her his infamous grin. "No more marriage proposals, for the rest of this year."

"Oh Lils, you know I can't promise you that at all," he slumped.

"No declarations of love in front of the whole great hall again."

"Fine," he grumbled, obviously displeased. He looked towards his feet as he kicked his right foot back and forth before looking up at her with a devilish smirk that told her he didn't mean it at all. She groaned loudly and rolled her eyes, causing the librarian to shush her as she walked away from James to find him a book.

"Why do you think Remus and Cleo spend so much time together?" Sirius wondered as he watched through the bookshelves as the two sat side by side, reading one book.

Peter looked up at Sirius, and then turned around to see what he was looking at. "They're great friends," he shrugged, turning back around. "Why do you keep asking about it?" Peter asked, but Sirius ignored him.

"Do you think that's all?" he asked.

"Wouldn't she have told you?"

"Well I would like to think so," Sirius muttered. "They both need someone to look after each other, I would be completely supportive," he continued. He noticed the way that Cleo would look at Remus and smile sometimes, and he would grin down at the book as she would laugh harder.

"They would be cute," Peter agreed, obviously already having thought about this before.

What Sirius didn't notice, was how Remus would glance at the blonde girl sitting opposite him, take in the way the sunlight would stream down upon her face, causing her features to light up and her hair to glow white. He obviously didn't notice the way he would glance back at his book quickly after almost being caught staring, and the way Luna would watch him afterwards, just as he had done to her. Sirius obviously hadn't noticed any of this at all.

But Cleo did. Cleo saw all of it. After almost two weeks of pestering Remus for information, she may have just found it out on her own. When she did, she audibly gasped, causing the table to look up at her.

"Bloody hell Cleo, are you having an asthma attack?" Indiana gasped.

"No, I just," she looked over at Remus, who had a confused look of indifference on his face. "I just remembered I had something to do, in the common room," she said, and all at once began packing her bag. "Indie, come with me," she stated suddenly. The girl, whose hair was partially covering her face with its abnormal volume, pushed it aside to look at her oddly.

"Why?"

"Because, I want to spend time with you, c'mon," she said quickly, glancing at Luna and then at Remus.

"Well alright, but I don't understand wh-" she said, finding the whole ordeal strange and therefore took her sweet time getting out of her seat. Cleo had to grab her arm and pull her up quickly. She packed Indie's books in her bag and put it on her shoulder quickly before pushing her away from the table.

Remus watched the whole thing, and all at once noticed exactly what Cleo was trying to do. His face went from confusion to annoyance as he watched her get up, grab her bag, push Indie out into the aisle, and wink at Remus before disappearing around the corner.

"What do you think that was about?" Luna asked him. Remus was snapped back to reality at the sound of her voice.

"Oh uh, I don't know. You can never really know when it comes to Cleo, can you?" he asked, chuckling. Luna grinned and continued to read her book. Remus went back to his reading as well, before jumping in fright at the sound of Luna slamming her book shut.

"The ending was awful," she mumbled, shaking her head disdainfully.

"Well yeah, everyone dies," Remus stated, looking at the title of the book she was reading.

"Not just that though," Luna began. "It was the fact that neither Romeo nor Juliet managed to fully understand the depth of their love for each other before they just up and killed themselves. I mean, their entire relationship from start to finish was hardly anything to commit suicide over, it was merely infatuation. They were too blinded by the prospect of each other to understand that their love was never something worth it in the end," she finished. Remus watched the whole time with eyebrows raised.

"I'm not exactly sure that's it though," he started, and thus led to the blonde girl with grey eyes and the boy with many secrets to share their entire afternoon debating over the endings of muggle novels.
