The Party

Sirius Black x Reader

My heart was beating faster and faster as we walked into the family home of the Blacks. I glanced nervously at the crowd .

Purebloods.

I hated these pureblood parties that my parents dragged me to. They were excrutiatingly boring, and so dull. The pureblood families got together every now and then to brag about their riches and accomplishments. Boring stuff. And it was another excuse for parents to find suitable brides and grooms for their children.

My eyes went through the crowd of people, searching for just one face. Eventhough I shouldnt be doing that. Its been over a month since I last saw him, and we had had an awful fight  before vacation began. He didnt even write to me. And his silence just drove me mad.

I found myself in the huge dining room. The long table was laid out with lots of food, and people were already sitting around it, talking and eating.

Thats when I saw him.

Sitting at the table, with a bored expression. Leaning back lazily on his chair. He saw me and sat up straight, running his fingers through his silky black hair.

"Y/N ! Come on now !" My mother's sudden appearence startled me. I stood staring at her with a hand against my chest.

"What is it, dear ? " she asked, seeing my expression.

"You scared me, Mum !" I said, as she took my hand and led me towards the table.

Most of the seats were taken, except for one where my mother sat, and two others on either sides of Him.

Sirius Black had that smirk on his face now. He knew I will have to sit next to him.

"Sit !" Mum urged me, as I hesitated.

This is going to be a long night, I thought as I walked up to the empty seat and sat. He looked at me, and I just gave a nod of acknowledgment.

Sirius and I were pretty close. We were very much inseparable. We have been together for 3 years now, and he still gave me butterflies in my stomach.

We had quite a nasty fight about a month before school closed for summer. I happened to see a Ravenclaw girl pushing him against a wall like she owned him, and trying to kiss him. I was way beyond jealous, and we got into a fight. I knew it wasnt him who did anything. But I  didnt see him pushing her away either. I was just too heartbroken to reason with anything. And we havent spoken since. He tried while at school. But I didnt give in.

I tried my best, but I just couldnt resist sneaking glances at him. Both of us played with our food. I took ocassional bites to satisfy my mother, who was eyeing me from across the table.

Just as I was about to put the spoon to my mouth, I felt his hand on my knee. I dropped my spoon and it hit the plate with a loud clang. Several guests looked up at me, and Mum was glowering.

"Alright there, sweetheart ?" she asked in a sickly sweet tone.

I nodded, and I felt his fingers tighten around my knee. I bit my lip, not knowing what to do. I grabbed my goblet and took a big sip of water. His hand slid up.

Thank god for the elaborate and frilly table cloth !

"Sirius, dont you dare !" I hissed at him, swatting his hand away.

He smirked again.

An old wizard sitting next to Sirius' father Orion Black, asked him something. Sirius turned to face him, and spoke. His fingers were still stroking my thigh, and it was sending shivers down my spine. I put a hand over his, and squeezed it, to stop his fingers from moving. He continued talking with the man, as his fingers slowly intertwined with mine.

I missed this boy. I missed the way he touched me, and said my name. I missed everything about him.

As I felt a heaviness in my heart, he moved his hand again. My stomach did flips at that. I knew this wont go well here.I held his hand again, and moved it away from my leg. I got up.

Excusing myself, I almost ran out of the dining room.

It was my first time in his house, so I didnt know where to go. I just went up the stairs, and found a door that opened into a small balcony. I stood, with my hands on the railings, breathing heavily.

I didnt know how I managed without him for this long. I couldnt do it anymore. I needed him. I needed Sirius Black.

Just as tears began to sting my eyes, I felt a pair of arms around my waist, and Sirius' scent filled my nostrils. He pulled me against his firm chest, kissing the back of my neck. I just held his hands to me tightly, not wanting him to let go.

"You're bad Sirius Black" I said. "You're so bad"

"Im sorry, Princess" he said, and turned me around to face him. "Forgive me"

He leaned forward to kiss me, and he lifted me off the floor. I pulled away, hearing some footsteps.

"Someone will see us " I said, looking over his shoulder.

"Come on" Sirius said, taking my hand. We ran up the stairs. And he opened a door, pulling me in with him. And I immediately knew it was his room. Before I could actually take a look at it, he pushed me against his door, and kissed me again.

"Owww" I said against his lips, making him laugh. He moved his lips down to my neck. "Sirius ! Our parents are downstairs !" I said, pushing him away.

"So what ?!" he said, grabbing me again. "No !!" I said as he came forward again.

He stopped, and pouted.

"Where have you been ? Did you even bother to write to me ?!" I asked.

"Im sorry Y/N!" Sirius said, looking defeated. "I didnt know what to do ! You wouldnt even look at me ! Besides, homes been hell -"

I knew what it was like for him, and I felt bad for being so hard on him.

"Please, Y/N?" Sirius said, takng my hand in his, and kissing it.

"I missed you, idiot" I said, hugging him. Sirius smiled and pressed his lips to mine again. His hands arms came around my waist, pulling me closer to him.

"I love you, baby" he said, kissing my nose. "I love you too " I said, smiling.

                             * * *

I stood in front of his mirror, fixing my hair, as he sat, watching me. He strolled towards me slowly, with a sad look on his face.

" I dont want you to leave" he said, standing behind me, with his hands on my waist. "Lets run away"

I turned around and kissed his cheek,laughing.

"We might have to" I said, and put on my shoes.

"Just a month more till school starts" I said, and went to the door. "Love you, Black"      

                          * * *

"Where have you been, Y/N !" Mum hissed as she saw me.

"Umm...bathroom" I said, shrugging.

"Come here ! There is something important" said Mum, grabbing my arm and leading me into the dining area.

"Found her, have you ?" Walburga Black was speaking to my Mum.

"This is her" Mum said, giving me a little push.

"Hmm" Walburga said, as she touched my cheek, trying to bring out a smile.

"She is perfect !" I stood staring at Sirius' mother.

"Ah ! There ! SIRIUS !" she bellowed, making me jump.

I turned to see Sirius looking at us with wide eyes. I was sweating now. Shit, have they found out about us ?!, I thought, my heart racing.

Sirius came to us slowly. He looked at me cautiously.

"Mary, I hope you've met my son before, Sirius " Walburga said, and Mum nodded, smiling at Sirius.

I felt another hand on my shoulder, and turned to find my Dad, smiling down at me. Why were they all so happy ?

"I think its time to tell them, Orion." He said. Sirius' father nodded and looked at his wife.

"Well, we have decided to join the Y/L/N and Black family " Walburga began. "And as the two of you are so well suited for eachother..." Sirius and I stood frozen.

Is this for real ?!

"The wedding will be soon after your education at Hogwarts is complete !" Mum added happily, smiling at Walburga.

Sirius and I exchanged glances, still unable to react.

Walburga came forward to hug me.

"Welcome to the family, Y/N" she said, struggling to bring about a smile.

Sirius finally smiled as my parents embraced him.

"I think this is great !" Mum exclaimed. "We have so much to do now !!" Just as our parents began their own conversations, Sirius looked at me.

"I cant believe it " I said.

He laughed.

I had to join in. Sirius put his arm aound me, kissing my forhead. Maybe this wasnt such a bad party, after all.

Young! Sirius Black x Reader

Sirius Black laughed hard, watching his bestfriend James' face turn a shade of blue. It was something he had eaten.

"I think you should get Lily" Remus said, thoughfully.

"Ok, just a sec" said Sirius, jumping up from the couch and running up to Lily's dorm room."Please stay blue, Prongs ! Evans HAS to see this !"

James shot him an ugly look.

Sirius burst into Lily's room saying, "Evans, you gotta see this-"

He froze to the spot. Lily's roommate Y/N Y/L/N was in there, dressing. His eyes fell on her body, her soft curves, her smooth olive skin, and long wavy brown hair that fell to her waist. Since his was quite a loud entry, Y/N turned almost immediately, covering herself with her shirt, and screaming.

"Black ! GET OUT !" she shrieked, making him stumble back, and close the door in a hurry. He stood there, actually noticing this girl for the first time. He knew Y/N as Lily's roommate, but they never spoke.

Y/N was a half-blood, her father being a wizard and her mother a muggle. She was quite an introvert, keeping herself to her books and few close friends, mostly the reason why she wasnt noticed much.

At least till now.                        

   * * *

Y/N sat on her bed, her burning red face in her hands.

Oh God, it just CANT have happened ! she thought. And that too Sirius Black! The way he stared. The look of shock on his face. Did he really see much ?                      

     * * *

Remus bounded up the stairs, hearing the commotion, and saw Sirius standing in front of Lily's room, his mouth hanging open.

"What just happened?" he asked, shaking his friend.

"I-" Sirius began, but was interrupted by the sounds of James and Lily's quarelling.

"Come on !" Remus said, and two darted downstairs, to the common room.

They were soon engrossed in their conversation, eventhough Sirius found his eyes wandering towards the girls' dorms, every now and then. He saw the door open and close, making his heart race for some reason. Surely, Y/N wasnt the first girl he had seen that way, but there was something about her. His heart was pounding in a strange heavy manner, watching the stairs - for her.

Y/N came down the stairs, her face a shade of pink, and her hair flying behind her.

Lily looked at her roommate only to see her sulking.

"Hey, you ok ?" Lily asked.

Sirius pulled in a breath, causing Remus to give him a suspicious look.

"Why dont you teach your friend some manners, Evans" snapped Y/N, eyeing Sirius, before stalking out of the common room.

"What was that about ?" Lily asked, looking at the four boys.

All eyes fell on Sirius, since he was the only one who had gone upto her room.

"What did you do ?!?" Lily growled, getting up from the couch. "Sirius !"

"I didnt mean to,ok !" Sirius said defensively. "How was I supposed to know that she was -"

"She was what ?" "Well, she was changing clothes or something when I kinda ran into your room...I kinda saw...her..." Sirius stuttered.

"SIRIUS !" Lily said through gritted teeth. Remus and James burst out laughing, followed by Peter.

"Oh come on guys!" Lily said, sinking back into the couch. "Sirius, you have to apologize to her"

"But-" began Sirius. "No buts ! I am not the only one living there ! You just cant go into a girl's room that way !"

A smirk spread on Sirius' face.

"Ok. I will apologize" he said."Only 'coz I like what I saw"

"You pervert" said Lily, flinging a book at him.                              

* * *

Y/N was on her way back from dinner with Alice, her other roommate, when she was Sirius coming her way. The other Marauders were at a safe distance from them, but still watching.

Sirius approached her cautiously.

"Y/N" he said, stopping her.

She looked at him, folding her arms against her chest. Thats when his eyes fell on her nose. She had her nose pierced, with a tiny stone-studded nosepin.

"Hello ?" Y/N was waving her hand in front of Sirius's face, and he looked back at her, blushing.

"What is it ?"

"I...um...Im sorry" he said, unable to keep his eyes from wandering again.

This time it lingered on her brown eyes.

Her eyes caught his grey ones, and after a moment, she said " Its alright. Next time, you knock" Y/N and Alice walked off, Sirius turning to watch her walk away.    

* * *

"Have you seen that thing on her nose ?" he said out loud that night, after the four were in bed.

"What thing ?" Remus asked.

"She has her nose pierced" said Sirius.

"Whats happened to you, Padfoot ?" James asked, squinting at his friend through the darkness.

"Nothing" Sirius replied.

"Oh right" said Remus. "Didnt you see him staring at her all evening, Prongs?"

"I didnt stare" Sirius said, flatly.

"I saw that Moony" James said.

"Mee too" squeaked Peter.

"Shut up" said Sirius, not saying another word.

Sirius Black x Reader

After his initial stuttering and nervousness around Y/N, Sirius was back to being himself. Which did not mean that Y/N was free to go. Sirius had his own way of doing things.

He would sit behind her in class. Or opposite her in the Great Hall. Or in the common room, he would occupy the couch from where he was always in her line of sight. He just HAD to be around her ALL the time.

Y/N was aware of all the attention she was getting from Sirius, but she barely ever reacted. She knew of his ways, and she was being cautious.                          

  * * *

"Im quite sure Black's staring at you Y/N" Alice said one morning at breakfast.

Y/N knew he was, and slowly she glanced his way, and their eyes met. Sirius smiled. Not a flirty one. But a genuine happy one.

Y/N smiled back, and was almost lost in it, when Lily shook her back to reality.

"Whats going on ?" She asked, sitting beside Y/N, eyebrows raised.

Y/N shrugged.

"Ready to go?" Lily asked.

Nodding, Y/N collected her things, and began walking out of the hall. Only something seemed to be pulling her back.

Frowning, Y/N turned back only to see Sirius watching her with a big toothy grin, and his friends doing the same, beside him. Sirius gave a little wave. Y/N just flashed him a tight-lipped smile and followed the girls quickly.                            

* * *

Sirius begged Lily to invite Y/N over to hangout with them.

"Please Lily ! Just try !! I'll do anything for this !" Sirius whined. "Please !!"

"Come on Lils, just ask her" James said.

She didnt think Y/N would agree, but after repeatedly being persuaded by the boys, she agreed to try.

"Hey, Y/N" said Lily, as she stood in front of the mirror, adjusting her scarf.

"Mhmm" said Y/N, looking up from the book she was reading.

"We're going down to the lake for a while" she said."Wanna come ?"

"With your friends ?" asked Y/N raising her eyebrows. "Is that a good idea ?"

"Yep" said Lily. "Come on, Y/N ! Its always them and just me ! Please ?"

Y/N looked away for a moment, thinking. "I...um..."

The thought of having to actually interact with Sirius, maybe for the first time after the incident made her nervous.

"Please ?" Lily said again.

"Alright..." Y/N said closing her book, and standing up. "I dont trust that boy, though"

"Who ?" teased Lily. "Sirius Black" Lily was sure that she saw a hint of a smile on Y/N's face.                                

* * *

The Marauders regularly invited Y/N to their hangouts after that. She went for most of them, where Sirius would be flirting with her mercilessly. And if ever she skipped, he would pout and sulk throughout the day.

Spending so much of time with them, Y/N found Sirius quite attractive , too, but she kept that thought to herself. Her heart would speed up seeing him, and there was such excitment bubbling inside her every time she spoke to him.

Lily knew her friend was quite fond of Sirius, but she never said anything. Things will have to fall in place on its own.

Sirius Black x Reader

Winning a game of Quidditch against the Slytherins was quite an achievment for the Gryffindors. It also meant a victory party was in order. Lily was going throung her trunk, chucking her clothes on her bed.

"Why cant I find anything good to wear !!!?" she whined, as Y/N pulled on a simple black sleeveless dress that came upto her knees.

"You are done already ?!" Lily asked, fishing into her trunk more urgently.

"Relax, Lily ! You can borrow one of mine if you cant find any !" Y/N said, combing her long hair.

That calmed her a bit, and she did find a pretty pink dress. Once the girls were ready, they went downstairs and saw a full fledged party in the common room.

Bottles of firewhiskey were stacked at makeshift bar, along with other drinks and snacks.

"Come on, Y/N" said Lily, grabbing her hand as they walked up to the boys.

They stood by the bar, with bottles of firewhiskey in their hands. Y/N's eyes fell on Sirius, who was dressed casually in a black shirt and a pair jeans, and his black hair shined in the disco lights.

Lily went forward to kiss James, and Sirius came forwrd to Y/N, and said,"You look beautiul,love"

Andrea smiled at him, saying "Thank you, you dont look so bad yourself "

Sirius smirked, and winked at her. A little into the party, James and all the boys for that matter, were drunk.

"Dont you think Y/N is too much of a goody goody to be even hanging out with us ?" said James.

Sirius glared at him, afraid if Y/N would leave.

"Cant even handle a little drink I see" James continued.

"I dont drink because I dont like to, James" Y/N replied firmly.

"Oh right"

"Besides, who cant handle a couple of drinks?"

"You cant !" James laughed, Peter joining him.

Remus looked at Sirius, knowing where this will end.

"Of course I can, Potter !" Y/N said, turning red in her face.

"Prove it" James said, smugly.

"Gladly" she said, reaching out for a bottle of firewhiskey.

One of their classmates, who was bartending, poured her a goblet.

"Y/N-" began Sirius, trying to stop her, but she swatted his hand away.

"You dont have to do it " said Remus, giving James an ugly look.

"She has never had a drink before !" Lily whispered to Sirius, tackling her boyfriend.

"Y/N, he is crazy " said Sirius, trying to take the goblet away from her. "You DONT have to prove anything"

"Sirius Black, you better let go"

There was fire in her eyes, and it kind of turned him on. Smirking at her, he folded his hands and leaned against the wall, as she raised the goblet to her mouth, and took a big swig.

They watched, and she put the empty goblet back on the table, putting her hands against her mouth, eyes wide. The drink burned her insides.

Her eyes darted to Sirius, who was watching her with much interest, taking a sip from his own drink.

James snorted, "Look at her face ! That was just one drink !"

As she reached for another filled goblet.

"Y/N, let it go please!" Lily whined.

Y/N downed the contents of the goblet, and just stood, her eyes watering up.

"Ohhhh" James said, putting his arm around Lily and pulling her closer to him.

"You are in so much trouble, Potter" Lily grumbled, pushing him away.

"Y/N, you should stop" Remus warned, now really concerned.

Sirius, remained silent his eyes fixed on Y/N.

A couple of globlets later:

"Fine, one more and Im done teasing you !"James said, with a grin.

His words were slurring now. With some effort, Y/N had another shot. And then, she held her stomach, her eyes closed tightly, before muttering, "I think Im going to be sick"

Remus grabbed a dustbin from the corner of the room, and Sirius helped her away from the crowd.

Once they were at a safe distance from the party animals, Y/N bent down over the dustbin, and threw up.

"This is all your fault Potter !" Lily fumed, and stalked off to find some water.

Peter took hold of a thoroughly wasted James, and led him off to his dorm.

Sirius knelt down, and held back Y/N's hair and rubbed her back slowly as she puked. "Its alright" he murmured, and she continued for a while.

Once it stopped, Lily wiped her face with some paper towels, and handed her some water.

"Guys, I dont think she can walk to the dorm" Lily said, looking at the sick girl.

"That wont be a problem" said Remus, looking at Sirius with a smile.

Sirius lifted Y/N off her feet bridal style, and carried her upto her dorm. Y/N held on to his shirt tightly, and he heard her saying incoherent things under her breath. Remus and Lily watched them, and stayed in the common room with a smile on their faces. Sirius placed her on her bed gently, but she held on to the collar of his shirt.

"Whats it, babe?" he asked, covering her hands with his.

She mumbled something, and he sat on her bed, leaning down to hear her.

"Dont go" Y/N whispered, the scent of his cologne intoxicating her more.

Her hands on his collar, loosened. Sirius laughed as he lay her down completely, and brushed his fingers on her cheek.

"I really want to kiss you now, you know ?" he said, his voice husky. "When you're in your proper mind, maybe. Good night, love"
