"We're ditching class," Sirius said. He grabbed her transfiguration book from her hand and held it up in the air teasingly.
"No, Sirius give that back," she said. She tried to grab the book from him, but he lifted it out of her reach.
"Come on, let's go."
Book in hand, he began strolling through the now nearly empty corridor. With a growl, Thea followed him, her arms crossed over her chest.
"Give it back."
"No," he called back to her.
"Please, Sirius!"
He turned around, his eyebrows furrowed together.
"Please?" he said. "Sirius? What's the matter with you today?"
She looked down, avoiding his eyes.
"Curse me!" he continued, edging closer to her. "Hex me! Go on, yell at me! Get your book back! You never let me push you around!"
She stayed silent, her nose tingling and eyes becoming misty.
"Talk to me," he said. She jumped, not realizing just how close he had gotten to her. She could feel his breath on her face, his body smelled clean, like soap. He placed his hand under her chin and lifted her head so she had to look at him. "Ditch class with me."
"Come on! We want to get a good seat!"
She smiled brightly. "Yeah, I'm coming--" She was entranced by the floating candlesticks and the night sky visible through the ceiling...at least that is what it looked like to her even though she was aware that it was enchanted. "Wow," she whispered to herself and she walked head on into something that wasn't there a moment prior and she looked directly in front of her and saw the loosely knotted tie in burgundy and gold over an adams apple and she looked up into the gray eyes that were looking down at her physical attributes with appreciation.
"Ooo! Cushy," he said in a low voice meant for only her to hear.
"Damn," she said in a low voice. "You certainly are cute."
The handsome boy raised his brow and looked her over as his mouth carried a lop-sided grin. He opened his mouth to speak, but she placed her finger over his lips.
"Too bad you're a jerk." She said, then she winked at him and skirted past him.
Sirius' face flushed pink and he craned his neck to watch her walk away, as well as the hem of her skirt swishing to and fro. She sat down on the bench and brought her legs up and swung them around and she turned her head slowly and looked him over slowly and smiled to herself as she turned her attention to her classmates.
Sirius raised his brow. "Challenge accepted."
