The Pitch is brightest at dinnertime [Sirius]

[sirius]

"I wouldn't expect anything less of them." Sirius said as he heard Parker comment about her friends being shocked. He smirked and just shook his head in amusement, smiling at her. He looked up at the sky, his dark eyes shimmering as the dim moonlight cast down upon it. He smiled, glad to see the stars twinkling at him. For once, he felt more at peace than he ever had before, especially as he looked over at the beautiful blounde next to him, grasping his hand. He gave her hand a reassuring squeeze and looked back at the stars.

He had always wanted to live in a place where you could see the stars. That had been a goal of his in life. He had always thought the stars were beautiful, although he hadn't said anything since then the Marauders might think him soft. Ever since he had stormed out of his house on various occassions when his parents were angry with him, he would lay down in the back of Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place and just stare up at the stars. He looked back at Parker, watching her. He loved to watch Parker, although he didn't admit it. He loved to watch as she furrowed her brow when she was concentrating, how her smile lit up her face, and how her eyes would sparkle with mischief and glee at times.

[Parker Williams]

"Yeah..." She really didn't have much to say at this point. She was just comfortable looking at the stars. The stars were perfect. Memories came flooding back to her. Growing up with her mother next door to James, meeting Sirius when they were ten at a banquet at the Potters. [Lol. Like Jess did on another site I had...I'm unoriginal, I know]. It was a night just like this, perfect, except for the fact that she was bored and angry because James and Sirius clicked and she was without a friend to hangout with because Sirius had the insane notion of No-Girls allowed playtime. She remembered sitting outside looking at the stars and thinking that she hated him. He was arrogant and URG! She remembered wanting to scream at the boys. The two of them didn't become friends until school started and their first ever prank war had started, of course the Marauders won, but the girls were named honorary Marauders that year.

Anyways, she was backtracking. She had so many memories of so many nights like this. The perfect nights where the sky was clear. She remembered the night her and Kara snuck out to explore the forest and the boys tagged along. They had gotten in so much trouble that night. A night perfect like this. She sat back up and looked at him, catching him staring at her. She grinned up at him and spoke softly. "Staring at me boyfriend?" She said grinning, and she brought her face up to his and lightly kissed him on the lips. Gentle, but only because she was trying not to take things to fast...but she wanted to, so badly. But she knew what she had to do to make this work. Maybe going so fast wouldn't be horrible though?

[sirius]

Sirius looked back at Parker at her comment and smiled, his grey eyes filled with happiness and mischeif. "Why of course, love. I love to stare at you. Your beauty capitivates my soul." He said, somewhat jokingly, yet seriously at the same time. She saw the look of surprise on his face by his words and he grinned. "Oh, so now you don't think I can be Sirius?" He said, saying his name instead of saying 'serious.' He laughed at his own wit. It surprised him that he was acting so much weirder around Parker than he did with other girls. With other girls, he would be more suave, but with Parker, he didn't feel the need to. Maybe because it seemed she didn't care if he was suave or not. That she didn't want him to put on an act for her.

The thought only made him smile all the more. He looked at Parker and as her lips touched his own, he could almost feel the electricity flow throughout his body, from the tips of his fingers down to his toes. As she pulled away, he smirked, and placed his thumb below her chin, tilting her head up and kissing her back, closing his eyes since it was rude to stare at people while kissing. He pulled away after awhile, not thinking it wise to take things fast. Although maybe it wouldn't hurt to take things a little fast, right?

[Parker Williams]

"You're beauty captivates my soul? Are you kidding me?"She said laughing at him, a smug grin on her face. This was not the Sirius she knew. He needed to just be himself, which was not, as much as he would like to think it was, the suave, cheesy romantic. It was the joking manner of voice that brought his persona into the line. She knew that the whole Sirius, serious joke was so played out, but it was always going to be one of those puns that you just never realize will always be funny in the cheesy sort of way. She didn't want too much to change between them. That was another one of her reservations about this whole situation. It was going to be weird at first, even though she felt perfect right now.

"Yeah, you can be Sirius, cause you are Sirius...but you know you can't be serious without me laughing at you...Cause you are just too suave for me..." She said grinning, talking with a sarcastic tone to her voice in the last part. Her sarcasm could be her best friend and her worst enemy. "Oh yeah, and if you the keep the cheesiness, I might have to leave you for like...Snape or something..." She shuddered inwardly, but she knew how to push his buttons, she liked the arrogant best friend Sirius who constantly was trying to look his best effortlessly.

[sirius]

"Leave me, the pouncing Padfoot, for Snape, a slimy haired git? And I thought you were smart." He said in mock hurtness, pretending to be angry with her as he turned his back on her although a look of amusement and jokingness showed through his dark eyes. He turned his eyes back to Parker. "Besides, what do you see in Snape? Snivellus isn't near as sexy and hot and insane as I am. Well, wait, not exactly sure about that last part." He said, refering to when he had said that Snape wasn't as insane as he was.

"You know you love the hotness that is me, Sirius Sage Black?" He said with a bark like laugh as he looked back at Parker, smirking. He was no acting himself, the 'merely' insane and cooky Padfoot, the one that had taken some first years up to the top of Hogwarts' roof and had them jump jack so that there would be mischief makers for after the Marauders left Hogwarts. The whole incident had been nicknamed 'The Jumping Jack Jamboree.' He smiled at the memory.

[Parker Williams]

"I dunno, you haven't seen him in his boxers...oh wait...you have. And oh Merlin I just pictured him in heart boxers...EW!" She said incredibly grossed out at what she had just pictured in her head. That was something she'd never ever wanted to picture again, she actually erased it from her memory until that moment. That day was the day that Lily wanted James to actually just...die. Not that Lily ever wanted him to actually die. But she was so angry that day. It was so strange that this year they were Head Boy and Girl. Maybe this year Lily would finally give into James. Parker raised an eyebrow at him, damn the boy was arrogant, but its what she expected. And it was what she brought out in him.

"Oh yes, I love the hottness that has a middle name like Sage. If you weren't such a good kisser with pretty hair I probably wouldn't like you." She said with a trademark smirk and laugh. This was the type of thing she didn't want to change, the wit rhetorical remarks that the waged war upon eachother with. That was the fun part. Between the two of them, the sarcastic wit was definatley quality. Parker was now standing up, and walked the bleachers, balancing, her grin obviously flirtatious.

[sirius]

As Sirius heard Parker's comment about imagining Snape in heart boxers, a look of disgust passed across his features and he shuddered. Ugh! He never wanted to see Snape in boxers ever again. Although, even though it was mean he didn't care, but he and James loved to dangle him in the air and humiliate him and his Slytherin coloured boxers. He smirked at the memory and looked back at Parker, a smirk still on his face as he stared at the blounde, listening to what she called 'wit.' Ha! He was so much more wittyful.

"Well, if you weren't such a beautiful babe with the most awesome eyes, I wouldn't fancy you very much either." He said back smartly. "It surprises me that you can not take the Pouncing Padfoot Sirius-ly at times." He said in mock hurt again, dramatically placing the back of his hand to his forehead, putting two of his so- called witty comments right after the other.

[Parker Williams]

"I can't see how anyone could ever take the inflated Sirius seriously. And you do fancy me because of my intelligence and wit you know, not just my stunner looks." She said grinning, still balancing on the bleachers. She walked her way back over to him and snaked one arm around his shoulders and ran her fingers through his hair before speaking adding softly, "But I do like the arrogant inflated Sirius better than the serious one anyways..." She said kissing him much differently than she had before, this was a full on kiss. The kiss that at one point, some Ravenclaw wanted to pay her for. [lol].

While this was the way Parker kissed, it was different when she was kissing Sirius. There were sparks, and there was so much more passion there. She didn't want to stop. In fact, she couldn't stop. Her eyes closed, cause its rude to stare when you're kissing someone [lol. they think so alike]. This was the perfect way to top off the perfect night before she realized they'd been there for several hours now, just looking at the stars, and that Parker had skipped dinner and curfew was fast approaching [not that she ever paid attention to it anyways]. Despite everything she was thinking, she didn't want to let go of him. She pulled away but kept her face close to his, smiling softly, eyes lit up the way they always would.

[sirius]

"Well, good ol' Prongs and Moony seem to take me seriously." Sirius said smirking, looking at Parker. He watched her walk back over to them from balancing on the bleachers and snake her arms around him, telling him she loved the deflated Sirius better then the serious one. "See, I knew you would fall for the Black Charm." He said with a smile. But before he could do or say anything else, her lips were ontop of his.

It was brilliant and wonderful, to say the least. Definitely much more different than any other girl he had kissed before. Every other girl there may have been passion but Sirius believed it just to be lust. I mean, it was obvious that Sirius could get any girl he wanted yet he chose Parker out of all of them. As if on cue, Parker pulled away although her face stayed inches from his. "Hmmm, I don't think I got full effect of that kiss. Perhaps we should try that again?" He proposed with a smirk, leaning in and kissing her.

[Parker Williams]

Before she could reply to anything else he said in return, and as she was about to reply to his remark about the 'Full effect' of her kiss, he captured her mouth. She kissed him back, parting her mouth a bit to allow access into it. [Urgh, that phrase is always o awkward to write...lol.] This was the first time she had kissed someone and really cared for the person. Things were going really fast, but she could easily see herself falling for the boy she was kissing. He wasn't a boy anymore though. Sirius Black was a man...which was a strange thing to think, seeing as she'd known him for so long, but he was. Maybe he could be 'The One'. But now was not a time for such thoughts. She didn't, as before, want to stop kissing him, because it felt so right, the two of them finally fit together perfectly and that was the best feeling in the world. She wouldn't give this feeling up for anything in the world.

She pulled back, finally and smiled softly at him, a caring, gentle look in her eyes. She spoke softly, a bit out of breath. "Wow...that was...wow. Full effect that time?" She said with a grin. That grin was her trademark, the only thing she had that separated her from every other pretty blonde. When she smiled, she was there, you could tell from her eyes that when she smiled, she was there with you, maybe the smartest blonde to live then? She realized how fast they were moving, but at the same time, it was like they had been together forever, because they were friends first, which was a firm believe of hers, you had to be friends with someone before you could fall in love with them.

[sirius]

Kissing Parker Williams made Sirius Sage Black realize two things. The first being one that he thought he would never think nor utter in his life.....He was a man. Hard to believe, no? He could hardly believe it himself. He had always vowed to play pranks on people and alwasy stay a teenager, yet kissing Parker made him realize that life wasn't always pranks and jokes. As much as it shocked and pained him to say it, he would have to give up pranks and jokes after leaving Hogwarts, maybe not fully but at least a good part of it. The second thing she made him realize was that maybe Parker was 'the one.' 'The one' refering to the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life possibly and would love for all eternity and beyond if at all possible. He smiled at Parker at her comment, which had snapped his out of his thoughts.

"Hmm....You know. I'm not exactly sure." He said smirking, flashing her a smile. Just like Parker, he too had a trademark smile. The smile basicaly said I'm-Hogwart's-Number-One-Hottie-And-Proud and could make any girl's heart melt or just make them faint on the spot. Ah, what power. And in earlier years, he had used this to his advantage, having girls falling for him ever since the tender age of 5 1/2 years old. He smirked, the thought being almost laughable but he contained his laughter, not wanting Parker to think him mad, not that she didn't already but that was beside the point.

[Parker Williams]

Parker grinned up at Sirius, she realized that as it got darker it got much colder. The English fog began to settle around the pitch, around the whole grounds actually. She didn't want to be aways from him right now, but knew they had to go upstairs. She thought that maybe they could go to the Room of Requirement...but she knew what that would lead to. Two experienced hormonally driven teens who haven't been together in forever, who were flirtatious, and the type of people that dated around. She wasn't ready for anything like that...she didn't think. That was the point at which the blonde realized how fast things were going. She hadn't even gone on a date with him. 'Screw the date...you want him, just have him...' The little voice in the back of her head was ringing. Screaming actually...so she just spoke to him. She could have self-control, she knew she could...

"Not sure eh? Well its getting pretty cold out here, maybe we could take this inside?" It wasn't as if she hadn't taken things fast before. On the contrary, she'd had plenty of one-night stands in her days at Hogwarts, but the only difference with this was that she really cared about Sirius. He was one of her best friends, and now he was her boyfriend, so its not like it was a bad thing that things were moving a little fast, was it? She had no idea what to do, she guessed if she went inside she would figure out how far it would get, how far she was ready to go.

[Jumping the gun much? lol. ]

[sirius]

Sirius looked at Parker and as he looked into her eyes he saw that it seemed there was a battle raging inside her mind. He smiled at her and as he heard her suggest them going inside he nodded and stood up, offering her his hand. "Here you go, m' lady." He said smirking, taking her hand and helping her stand up. He wondered if she was thinking the same as he. Could they possibly do it? Could he possibly take away her innocence? Take away what she seemed to be offering him? He had no idea and it sort of scared him slightly. He wanted to date her first, perhaps get to know her a bit more.

She's been your best friend ever since fourth year, you dolt!

He sighed and ran a hand through his hair. Well, he would let nature take it's course. Whatever happened would happen. He then pushed his thoughts aside and led her down the bleachers and away from the Quiddithc Pitch towards the ever looming castle.
