"I have a more personal question," she ignored his arrogance. Watching him had sparked a new interest that seemed to overpower any interest she had in their previous conversation.

"Oh?" he seemed surprised but didn't allow it to affect his composure. "Go ahead then."

"Why me?"

"I beg your pardon?" Sirius seemed confused. Marlene felt embarrassed asking it but it wouldn't be the first time it had danced around in her head. Sirius was the type of guy that could have any girl he wanted. He was smart, funny,  immeasurably handsome, and he bloody well knew it. Though he was bit egotistical at times, his hot headedness had seemed to settle down immensely from the boy she had known from fifth and sixth year.

"Of all the girls you could have picked from, you chose me. I want to know why."

Sirius was looking at her funny - it was not quite the reaction she had been expecting. "Of all the girls I could have picked from. What exactly is that supposed to mean? Isn't it obvious?"

*

It's Marlene's seventh year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and she has graduated from blundering student to emotional train wreck. She knew that seventh year was going to be challenging, but she never imagined that N.E.W.T.s would be the least of her worries. The pressure of suppressing her emotions begins to take its toll, and it's only a matter of time before she breaks. She knows that she must tell Sirius how she truly feels if they ever stand a chance. As she struggles to win Sirius back, dark forces continue to loom over Hogwarts. Suddenly, Marlene finds herself immersed in something unexpected; threatening everything she knows and loves. Relationships blossom, alliances are formed, and adventures continue as Marlene and her friends enjoy their last moments before the war. They must rely on one another to fight the darkness, and together she and Sirius may just have a fighting chance after all.

"So we're alone," he said slowly. "That's a thoughtful observation," she whispered. She could feel her fingertips tremble slightly as they clasped around his hair. She didn't know why she suddenly felt so nervous. She moved her hands and allowed her fingers to trail slowly and gently down the side of his face and he involuntarily shivered at her touch. Eventually her fingers landed on his lips and she traced across them softly. They parted slightly and she could hear and feel him let out what she assumed to be an unintentional breath. He moved inwards, his lips pulling from her fingertips to hover near her ear. "I'm a thoughtful person." * After getting accepted into the Healer training program and moving to London, Marlene begins her life outside of Hogwarts. Despite the looming dangers of war, she has a pretty decent life; she has friends who care about her, a boyfriend who loves her, and the determination to keep fighting for a life worth living. But it doesn't take long for Marlene to begin questioning her choices. As the world is falling apart around her, so are her relationships and any certainty that she once had. Except for Sirius; the only certainty she has left in the world. However, war only seems to be threatening to tear them apart. She can't quite put her finger on what has started changing, but something certainly has, and love may not be enough to get her through it this time. It is only a matter of time before Marlene must make the most important choice of all; join the war or fall apart.

The beginning of a new era at Hogwarts: the first year of the Marauders. When James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew arrive at Hogwarts, none of them are prepared for what awaits them in their first year. For each of them, this new beginning is much more than just learning magic; it is the start of a journey that will change their lives forever. For James Potter, arriving at Hogwarts is everything he's ever dreamed of: the chance to stand out and show off his talent. But he will soon discover that true greatness is not measured solely by magical skills, but by the strength of the friendships he is about to form. Sirius Black, born into a dark and traditional family, faces the unexpected challenge of being sorted into Gryffindor, a house that represents everything his family despises. For the first time, Sirius has the chance to step out from the shadow of his surname and carve his own path, far from what it means to be a Black. For Remus Lupin, studying at Hogwarts seemed impossible. Marked by a dark secret, he never imagined that Dumbledore himself would give him his letter of acceptance to Hogwarts. Now, amidst classes and spells, he must deal with the burden of keeping his true nature hidden, fearing that if it's discovered, he will lose the chance to be a normal wizarding child. Peter Pettigrew, more insecure and less confident than the others, gets into trouble from day one, forcing him to desperately seek a place where he belongs. Although his first impressions may not be the best, Peter is determined to prove his bravery and find a group that will accept him and help him reach his true potential. With unexpected challenges, dark secrets, and newly-formed friendships, the first year at Hogwarts will mark the beginning of a brotherhood that will face trials they could never have imagined. This is only the start of the Marauders' adventures, where the magic of friendship will be tested time and time again.

"Oh Lily, you really are amazing, you know that?" Lily sighed, same old James he was probably going to ask her out again in 3... 2... 1.... and... Nothing. Huh, she thought to herself, maybe he really has changed. James looked back at Lily and grinned, she quickly looked away and his face fell. I need to get her out of my head, he thought, she doesn't like me anymore, end of. No point in going after a girl who hates you anymore, who knows how much time we all have left. The door opened, and they both looked up. Prefects started filling the room, ready to start the new school year. Lily smiled professionally and James mimicked her, greeting and congratulating the other students. Before Lily started to speak, she took a last glance at James. He smiled slightly, his small dimples made him look so innocent and adorable. She breathed in and looked down at the paper in front of her, one thought protruding out from the rest, I will not fall in love with James Potter. --- In their final year at Hogwarts, Voldemort is on the rise, luckily though, Hogwarts is still safe... mostly.
