"You should tell him, you know," a familiar voice softly said from behind her. "I know you love him." "Remus," she began turning around to face her friend, "You know I can't do that.

Lexi Stryker is in for quite a ride when she begins her life as a witch at Hogwarts. Not only is she completely surrounded by magic, but she meets her match in Sirius Black. Both equally hilarious, crazy, cocky, and outgoing, the two should become instant friends. But what happens when Lexi realizes Sirius is more than a jokester? He's the school bad boy and player. Lexi makes a vow to stop Sirius' player ways before his and many girls' hearts are broken. Can Lexi tame the wild Sirius Black without breaking their friendship and her own heart?

They were reckless, she was not. They were loud, she was not. They were graceful, she had lost count of how many times she'd tripped on the stairs. Yet one fireplace and a blackmail-induced deal later, Aylin Novak ended up in the company of the Marauders. (Regular updates)
