The Rise of the Phoenix

Friendship

            Katerina was studying in the Owl Tower when she was greeted by Sirius Black he said "So you're isolating yourself from the rest of us how cliche of you?" she said "Well, I get my best done up here, why are you checking up on me for?" he said "I'm not checking up on you?" she said "You do know I'm a legilimency what you say isn't what you think, so the truth please?" he said "Fine, I was wondering if you would go out with me? I understand if you think I'm not suitable given you don't care for me". She read his mind of his thoughts of having a crush on her she wouldn't find him very interesting like he's no Lucius Malfoy some uptight person and that he's always liked her but was afraid to tell given she was with Lucius and now he believes he blew it as he walked away she said "Where are we going to?" he said "What?". As if he didn't hear her correctly she walked up to him she said "Going out with you, where are we going?" he said "I don't know, what do you like?" she said "Well, no one has ever asked me that not even Lucius, so surprise me". Katerina was greeted later by Sirius he had a map he said "Wherever you want to go I can lead you there" she said "Well, what do you recommend?" he smiled he took her on a jaunt through passageways they had a marvelous time most fun in a long time. She never knew that Sirius would be so fun maybe because she never had a true friend before as he lead her back to Hogwarts she said "That was fun, thank you for convincing me to go out" he said "Well, your welcome" she kissed him on the cheek he blushed she said "I look forward to the next time" she walked off.

         Over several weeks in between classes the friendship Katerina and Sirius developed seemed almost secret perhaps a basis for a real relationship as Katerina preparing to leave Hogwarts she didn't want the term to end because she will go home and not see Sirius again because her dad would forbid it. Sirius was the black sheep of Black Family mostly because he didn't believe in his family motto "Toujours Pur" meaning always pure he didn't see himself better than muggles he found them quite fascinating and he was friends with Lily Evans who happen to be a muggle-born witch being ostracized by his family he sought out the Potter family as his own. Katerina packing up her stuff as she had graduated from Hogwarts but she thought to herself she could never had gotten through it without Sirius so as she waited a little ways in the Owl Tower she smirked Sirius said "Everyone is running up and down the halls excited for summer break, why not you?" she said "I never thought I would get through this year alone but you helped me to do that, this was my sanctuary and now I have to let it go and enter the wizardry world" he said "Well, perhaps you will find something" she said "But you wouldn't be there". Sound of kids yelling downstairs waiting to go to the train she went up to him she said "To remember me" she planted a kiss on his lips she walked off he was stunned she did that and was in awe just thinking about the kiss on his way home with James.
