Love does not begin the way we seem to think it does.Love is a battle, love is a painful war; love, in my case, is growing up. My name is Courtney Templeton and I was happy staying out of relationships that would just end in tears, I was a great witch with great friends and amazing family. I was never planning on looking for love, I wouldn't mind that much if I was alone at forty. That was, of course, until Sirius Black comes along and the fine line that lies between love and hate, disappears and merges them both. ((((SORRY RUBBISH AT DESCRIPTIONS BUT PLEASE GIVE THE STORY A CHANCE :D))))

WARNING: UNDERGOING SOME SERIOUS (no pun intended) EDITING "Talking to yourself is one of the first signs of madness, you know." Hearing him say that yet again made her roll her eyes which only made that smirk on his face turn from that to a grin, "Ah yes, the first of the day!" Sirius Black was a lot of things -- he was rebellious and intimidating, but also quite witty and funny (or so he'd like to think), he caused more trouble than he would have cared to admit but ironically enough, was clever enough to get by. Not that he would need it. He was a lot of things, but he had everything within arm's reach. Arianna Riddle was a lot of things herself -- a lot to the point that she ended up attracting unwanted attention from a certain group of troublemakers.

Courtney Daniels is the odd one of the triplets. Instead of long, blonde hair and hazel eyes, she has brown hair and brown eyes. Also, she was sorted into Gryffindor, unlike the rest of her family, who have always been in Ravenclaw. To top it all off, there's a certain someone in Gryffindor, but not just anyone someone. The one and only Sirius Black, whom she has hated since the first day they met. Join Courtney and her adventures with the Marauders as she learns to love someone she thought she never would.

Waverly Trinket. The only American witch to go to a school for magic in Briten. She keeps every one at a distance, accept her little brother West. She doen't take any crap from anyone, and refuses to cave, on anything. And when she goes to the UK, she meets an over-confident, sarcastic, cocky, snide rich boy {Who may, or may not have amazing gray eyes ;) }, and for the first time feels challenged. Sirius Black might just be least of her problems when she gets to Hogwarts though... ******All characters are property of J.K. Rowling {All hail!} exept Waverly, Westchester, and Tina, and any other random characters I may have added in. I also apoligize if I don't follow the events in the books, but, I try!****** {{Cover by Emmie5 and all credit goes to her}}
