Lumos ⤳ sirius black

Chapter 25, Falling.

*Lucys POV*

    "Welcome students and Professors to the first Quidditch match of the year!" The crowd roared and my nerves got up even more. We all exited and the crowd roared even louder, "And the Gryffindor team is back, as well as Lucy Ross and James Potter! They are the ones that do most of the work." To that comment, about half of the team scoffed and I beamed. James however started to bow, with that ego bigger than his head.

  "Mount your brooms!" Madame Hooch yelled over the roars of the crowd, after all, it was a perfect day for a Quidditch Match. The captains shook hands, our captain and the hufflepuff captain. I don't really know their names.

  "And they're off! Johnson passes it to Finnigean, but then Potter gets it, throws it and scores! 10-0," I drowned him out and focused on trying to look for the snitch. I saw the snitch in the end of the broom I dove for it and caught it.

   "Gryffindor Wins! 160-30! Lucy Ross had caught the snitch everybody! She has caught the snitch!" Soon, I only saw bits of red and gold.

  There was a wild party that night, but as the introvert I sometime was, I went ahead with Remus and studied for our O.W.Ls.

  After a week, it was our first full moon, meaning that we needed to sneak out. Me, Sirius, and Peter went as our Animagi, seeing that we were the hardest to see. Peter being the smallest, me and Sirius being as dark as the nights sky.

  I heard Moonys' yell that turned into a howl and for a second I felt immense pity for him, he really did go to hell and back. Soon a stag was in our side, while the werewolf started to look at us. His eyes seemed to soften a bit and became less aggressive. That was a restless night.

  In the following day, we all fell asleep. During transfiguration. With Minnie. Minnie McGonagall. Please, take a second for that to sink in. "Miss Ross! Mister Potter! Mister Pettigrew! Mister Black! I expected more from you 4! Especially this year!" "Sorry Professor," I mumbled a bit hearing sniggers from the other houses.

   Sirius seemed as tired as I was, making me feel a bit better. I fell asleep once more, and Professor McGonagall seemed to understand from all of those, "hypothetical" questions.

    "Lucy," said a soft voice I recognized to be Lily's. "Huh?" I muttered. "Class is over." With that jolted up making Sirius do the same as my hand had been in top of his. (He was left handed, I was right. Right handed too of course.)

   "I took notes for all of you." Lily said passing them out, "as well for Remus but I couldn't find him."

"We'll give it to him." Sirius and me woke up Peter and James, while Lily exited the classroom. "This is going to happen every full moon isn't it?" James sleepily asked, "Although Minnie McG told me she was proud of us." "Did you siriusly just called her Minnie McG?" "Whoops."

"Do you guys think we'll be able to even pass our O.W.Ls?" I asked, "Remus and you, probably, Peter, me, and James, probably not." Padfoot said, while a certain Prongs looked offended.

~*~

"I'm going to visit Moony, anyone would like to come?" I asked them, "Sure." Said Padfoot and Prongs. We went down there but Madame Pomfrey wouldn't let us pass. And like that we went over to the common room, once again.

We were in our hideout, studying, when Padfoot then said, "Are you ok? Does it hurt?" "What?" I asked clearly confused, "This," he got my hand which made my heart flutter, and I then realized that I had been covering my, er, private part.

"Oh, that's nothing." He shrugged it off and we continued to study.

I then thought, this was going to be my life now, scarred, forever.

"Sirius," I said, "I hate myself,"If hadn't and I was in his arms, staring up to my enchanted ceiling. "Why?" He simply asked, "Because of everything. I hear all of these voices yelling at me, telling me all of these horrible things..and I believe them. And this is all of my fault."

He took my chin made me look up to him, tears falling down my cheeks, "It's not your fault, it never will nand it never has. And why do you believe them? If you want to believe something true let me say it. You're beautiful, and I love you, everyone does." He comforted me.

His eyes seemed to be full of clouds, the sun nowhere to be seen. Sirius had a soft look, making my heart melt.

This is what I want to see everyday. My heart seemed to yell.

I leaned in and kissed him.

And he kissed back.
