Warning: There is a bit of swearing. Sad.

"How about Hogsmeade this weekend?" Sirius asked, pulling Y/N from the conversation she was having with Lily. She turns around and smiles at him. Butterflies filled his stomach as her bright smile captivated him. 

"Hello to you to Sirius. What about Hogsmeade? We always go, is there a change in plans? Lily, Remus, and I needed to replenish our chocolate stock."  Sirius laughs and looks between the two girls.

"I mean, just the two of us." He shifts on his feet and flashes a grin as her smile widens.

"Like a date?" She asks.

"Yeah, like a date." He agrees. She turns quickly to the redhead behind her, and they exchange a hushed conversation. He once again shifts on his feet, waiting for her to respond. Lily's green eyes stare into him, making him feel uncomfortable. They glared at him, giving him the best friend talk. If you hurt her, I will kill you. You break her, I break you.

“Wait, where you say you've been?

 Who you been with?

 Where you say you're goin'?

 Who you goin' with?”

Three months later:

Sirius' arm rested around her shoulder as they sat on the couch in the common room. They sat leaning into each other, watching the flame crack in front of them. She subconsciously played with his hand, like she did when she was lost in thought. They sat in quiet as everyone had already headed up to bed. Sirius stared at her soft features, lit from the warm fire. Her eyes were fixated on the fire, her eyebrows scrunched.

"What are you thinking?" He asks softly, grabbing her attention. Her face relaxes as it moves from the fire to him.

"I am just wondering how I am going to make it through the rest of Potions without wanting to die." Sirius pulls her into him until she is laying against him.

"The same way we are going to get through this year. Together." 

"Someone is a tad cheesy tonight."

"Only when I am with you," Sirius smirks, knowing what strings to pull. 

"They weren't kidding when they said you were a hopeless romantic." She giggled. Their silence continued for a couple more minutes before she spoke again. "Is it alright if we reschedule our date this weekend? A couple of us wanted to go to Hogsmeade and hang out. You can have a boys day there."

"Who is a couple of us?" He looks to her, and she continues to play with his hands once again.

"Lily, Marlene, Mary, and one of Lily's other friends." She stated simply.

"Who is her other friend?" She remains quiet before responding.

"Severus." Y/n bit her lip, knowing what he might say.

"First name basis, huh?" Y/N sits up and looks at him, confused.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Her face was scrunched again, upset at his words. "I'm sorry I felt that it was nicer to call someone by their first name."

"Really, you didn't even want to tell me who it was in the first place, first name or not," Sirius grumbled.

"Maybe because I know you don't like him, and I thought you would feel better if I didn't tell you. I thought it would make you feel better." She argued, pushing herself a bit further away.

"So you thought not telling me would solve everything. I totally wouldn't assume that you were hiding something." He felt something build up inside of him. His jaw clenched as he stared back into the fire.

"What has gotten into you?" When he didn't answer, she went upstairs.

Keep me on my toes, keep me in the know.

She avoided him the next morning and sat next to Remus. She didn't speak a word to the group who had eventually become her second family. She thought about the conversation that night and the insinuation he made about her. Did he really think she would jeopardize what she was waiting for two years for? Sirius sat beside James, staring at the food in front of him. He moved the food around his plate. Something felt different inside him, she wouldn't do that. Would she? Thoughts ran through his head, unstoppable at every conclusion. Everyone liked her, what if he makes a move on her and she doesn't stop him. He could do it out of spite because of me. He was pulled from his thoughts when James nudged his shoulder. Remus and Peter left, probably with Y/N. 

"Alright, why are you moping? What happened between you two?" He asked. Sirius contemplated for a moment and spoke. 

"She wants to break our date to hang out with the girls and Snivellus." His voice growled when he said his name. "But instead, she called him one of Lily's friends to hide that he was going."

"At least she tried to do that, Lily tells me and then proceeds to lecture me about how we treat him. It's not like she would do it to make you angry. That is when you should worry." James explains.

"Do you think she would cheat on me? I feel like she is being distant ever since we started dating. She is beautiful; what if she falls for any guy that sweet talks her? Like I did." Sirius slumped in his seat.

"She wouldn't cheat on you, mate. She isn't that kind of person. She likes you." James reasoned. James let out a sigh and stood, patting Sirius' back. "If we don't leave, now we are going to be late, and Lily will lecture both of us to detention, for fun. Go talk to her, make things right." Sirius sat next to James once again and watched her as she sat next to Lily talking. Deep in conversation, they continued. Lily looked back to see Sirius and sent a glare in his direction. He knew they were talking about him. Sirius knew he had to talk to her. And he did.

I'll wait for it to start, I'll wait for it to end

Keep me on my toes, keep me in the know

Another couple of days went by, Sirius sat in the library with Y/N as she studied for potions. She was consumed with the page in front of her and left him to his thoughts. She wasn't at lunch when they ate. Marlene told them that she had to do something so she wouldn't make it. Why didn't she tell him herself? He wondered what she had to do that she didn't tell him about in person. Was she hanging out with Snivellus? Or maybe the Ravenclaw boy that has been too friendly to her? The only way to find out was to ask.

"Where were you at lunch?" He asked. Her face turned from the paper and onto him.

"Oh, I had to talk to Slughorn about my grade. He said that he thinks I am going to need a tutor." She responded. "Didn't Marlene tell you? I asked her to tell you I wasn't going to make it."

"She said you were doing something. I just wondered why you didn't tell me." Her expression scrunched up again.

"I got the message to you, why is it that I have to tell you everything that I do?" Anger filled up inside him.

"I just wanted to make sure you are safe." 

"How am I not safe? I can take care of myself." She shoved her paper into her bag and stood. 

"Just so you know I'm going to the bathroom, I hope that is okay." She snapped, leaving him sitting at the table.

Spent behind bars

Oh, it's sad to think we just let it be

Prisoners of love

Their arguments seemed to be more common, they can't go a week without one.

"You don't trust me! It's like no matter what I do, it isn't up to your standard! So what is it? Am I not as perfect as you expected me to be?" Y/N asked, her face red and tight.  

"I never said you weren't up to my standards! You mean everything to me." He tried to stay calm, but he couldn't lose her.

"Really?  In my eyes, if I'm not accused of being a whore, I am being accused of lying." Her voice broke, and he could see the water welling up in her eyes.

"I didn't accuse you of being a whore! Even though you go through friends like one. You would rather blow off your own boyfriend to hang out with someone he hates."

"What are you, ten? Maybe if you wouldn't be an ass to him for no reason, then you could see that he isn't too bad. Is it such a bad thing to have friends?" She stepped closer, and her face grew red. 

"I have every reason to be a jerk to him; after all, he is stealing my girlfriend from me, and it is bad for you to have friends who are all male. Are you gathering a future date list just in case?" He growled. She shook her head and let out a weak laugh.

"He isn't trying to steal me, you are doing a great job of pushing me away. So much for not accusing me of being a whore. I loved you, Sirius. I would never do anything to hurt you. Maybe if you weren't so worried about yourself and how things made you look, then you would've known that. I loved everything about you I have for years. I watched you make out in the corner with so many goddamn girls, and I had to sit in front of you at lunch and look you in the eyes. I had to hear you gush about every one of them and that being one of them for just a moment made me think that just maybe I got what I have always wanted. Instead, I get accused of cheating and lying. You have always treated me as second best, and it is no different now because I am second to you. You try so hard to find a flaw or to try to find a reason to leave because you were afraid it would hurt you. Am I right?" Her eyes were red, and cheeks stained with tears. "Did you ever really even care?" He opened his mouth to speak, but she stopped him again. "Save it. I'm done, we are done."

But when I looked at her I thought of only you

If only there was proof I could use to show it's true

It was their last year at Hogwarts. Sirius hadn't talked to Y/N for a year and a half, their breakup spread throughout their class. The famous Sirius Black was called out in front of many of their classmates by his best friend. He continued like he usually did after breaking up with someone. Sirius tried to act like it never happened, but every time he saw her, her eyes red from crying, his heart broke again. He loved her, but he never wanted to lose her. Marlene asked him out at the beginning of the year, and they have been dating since. She was more of a make-out now talk later kind of girl. At least with Y/N, she didn't have to touch him all the time. She gave him more space. He would see Y/N hanging out with Lily,  Remus, and Mary, but all he wanted was to run to her. As soon as she would see him, she changes direction, or Lily would stare daggers at him. Marlene could usually tell when he was off. She tried to cheer him up, but he always pushed her away. He seemed to critique her. Like he was trying to make her like Y/N. He always thought about her. The one he screwed up with. The way she smiled when he called her name, the feeling he got when she kissed him, the comfort he got from being around her. She meant everything, and he was so worried about losing her that he ended up losing her.

Tearing down those walls, nothing's in our way

I said, nothing's in our way

Crash, fall down

I'll wrap my arms around you now

Just crash, it's our time now

To make this work second time around

He had to be there for James, it was their first child and his godson. He didn't even think she would be there. It had been years since they broke up, and he lost what he thought he loved the most. She sat in their living room next to Lily, holding the baby in her arms. She was talking with her baby voice to the blue bundle. Remus sat on the arm of the chair, looking down at the baby. James ushered Sirius over to the couch, and his eyes locked with Y/N's beautiful bright smile didn't falter. The butterflies filled his stomach again as she beckoned him over to hold the small child. She talked between Remus and Lily, and her voice, long forgotten, made him remember why he fell in the first place. He eventually gave Harry back to Lily and went to the kitchen in search of tea. 

"It is nice to see you, Sirius." Her charming voice pulled him from the cup he started. He turned around and smiled. 

"It has been a while. How have you been?" He asked, leaning against the cupboard behind him.

"I've been great, I have been working at St. Mungo's since we left Hogwarts. I don't think I have had a day off since." She laughed. He stood back up and grabbed the cup from behind him.

"Maybe you could tell me about it over a cup of tea?" He offered her the tea. Her smile widened as she nodded, accepting the cup.

"Still haven't lost your charm, I see."

"Only when I am around you."

Oh, crash, fall down

Just crash, fall down

Just crash, fall down

Just crash, fall down

I am in Boise this weekend with a group of friends for our post graduation trip. We all went downtown to Freak Alley Gallery, which was absolutely amazing and all the art was incredible. I never would have expected to see these three boys on the wall. Yet there I was staring at my favorite Youtubers. Although I am not sure who created this, they made my day. I tried searching the name written next to it, but I’m not as good of a detective as I thought I was.😂

December’s Tragedy

This was my attempt at 55 word story for my Creative Writing class.

The snow fell softly onto the slick, wet ground. Mesmerized by the white flakes that fell around the car. She perched on her knees, trying to look outside the window. Her tiny hand pushed the red button of the seatbelt to move over. She wasn't ready for the impact that threw her from the car.

there’s a website where you put in two musicians/artists and it makes a playlist that slowly transitions from one musician’s style of music to the other’s

A Message to my Followers who are going to be impacted by Hurricane Florence.

This hurricane is dangerous.

Please, take it seriously.

It is not just a thunderstorm.

Take it from someone who went through Katrina and saw the damage a hurricane can do when it sits and builds.

It changes entire landscapes.

It kills.

Get gas now. The gas stations will begin to either run out, or put a limit to how much gas you can get. Get it now while you can, because I remember distinctly the way the abandoned cars looked on the highway while we were evacuating.

Once that storm hits, the gas stations will shut down. There will be no gas for a week, at least.

You will be stuck in bumper to bumper traffic. Make sure your car is in good working order. The amount of cars left behind on the highway is astounding.

Bring your pets in case of flooding, don’t leave them behind or in a shelter.

Take a picture of every single thing in your house the way it is. Ever dresser. Everything. If it floods, this will help with the insurance.

Power will be out for a week, possibly more. Take anything that will spoil, eat it now/bring it with you/throw it out. You don’t want to come back to a house that is 80°+ inside with spoiled food. It smells disgusting. I know from first hand experience.

Pack as much clothes + whatever else you need as you can. You don’t know what you will be returning to, if anything at all. I hate to say it, but there were so many homes lost in Katrina in mg area to flooding & I didn’t even live in the Soup Bowl.

From what I’ve seen, the outer bands are strengthening. They’re red at this point. This hurricane is getting stronger, and it’s well built. There are no winds to tear it apart. It’s eye is holding together, and that’s terrifying. A well built storm like this one can ruin lives. It’s not a joke.

Please, please stay safe. Evacuate ASAP if you’re in the direct line.

Don’t wait until it is here. That is how you get killed. Do not evacuate in the middle of it. Don’t wait until last minute.

It is always better to be safe than sorry.

Please stay safe.

Listen to the news. Follow their advice.

Leave while you still can, before the highways get clogged up. Go as far in-land as you can. Leave the state entirely if you have to.

We did. And we still felt the effects of Katrina.

Please, stay safe.

The internet could change next week, and not in a good way

You may have heard about the efforts in Europe to reform copyright law. The debate has been ongoing in the European Parliament for months. If approved next week, these new regulations would require us to automatically filter and block content that you upload without meaningful consideration of your right to free expression. 

We respect the copyrights and trademarks of others, and we take all reports seriously to ensure that your creative expression is protected. We make this clear in our Community Guidelines. There’s already a legal framework that works and is fair: Today we take down posts and media that contain allegedly infringing content when we receive a valid DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) takedown request. We also provide clear-cut ways for people to fight back if they believe their removed content was not a true violation. These instances are monitored and reported and live in our biannual transparency report. 

The suggestion to use automated filters for issues of copyright is short-sighted at best and harmful at worst. Automated filters are unable to determine whether a use should be considered “fair use” under the law and are unable to determine whether a use is authorized by a license agreement. They are unable to distinguish legitimate parody, satire, or even your own personal pictures that could be matched with similar photographs that have been protected by someone else. We don’t believe that technology should replace human judgment. Tumblr is and always has been a place for creative expression, and these new regulations would only make it harder for you to express yourself with the freedom and clarity you do so now. 

If you access Tumblr from Europe and want to act, you can find more information on saveyourinternet.eu.

“When I was a freshman, my sister was in eighth grade. There was a boy in two of her periods who would ask her out every single day. (Third and seventh period, if I remember correctly.) All day during third and seventh she would repeatedly tell him no. She didn’t beat around the bush, she didn’t lie and say she was taken—she just said no. One day, in third period, after being rejected several times, he said; “I have a gun in my locker. If you don’t say yes, I am going to shoot you in seventh.” She refused again, but right after class she went to the principal’s office and told them what happened. They searched his locker and there was a gun in his backpack. When he was arrested, some of my sister’s friends (some female, even) told her that she was selfish for saying no so many times. That because of her, the entire school was in jeopardy. That it wouldn’t have killed her to say yes and give it a try, but because she was so mean to him, he lost his temper. Many of her male friends said it was “girls like her” that made all women seem like cockteases. Wouldn’t have killed her to say yes? If a man is willing to shoot someone for saying no, what happens to the poor soul who says yes? What happens the first time they disagree? What happens the first time she says she doesn’t want to have sex? That she isn’t in the mood? When they break up? Years later, when I was a senior, I was the only girl in my Criminal Justice class. The teacher, who used to be a sergeant in the police force, told us a story of something that had happened to a girl he knew when she was in high school. There was a guy who obviously had a crush on her and he made her uncomfortable. One day he finally gathered up the courage to ask her out, and she said no. The next day, during an assembly, he pulled a gun on her in front of everyone and threatened to kill her if she didn’t date him. He was tackled to the ground and the gun was taken from him. When my teacher asked the class who was at fault for the crime, I was the only person who said the boy was. All the other kids in the class (who were all boys) said that the girl was, that if she had said yes he would’ve never lost it and brought a gun and tried to kill her. When my teacher said that they were wrong and that this is what is wrong with society, that whenever a white boy commits a crime it’s someone else’s fault (music, television, video games, the victim) one boy raised his hand and literally said; “But if someone were to punch me and I punched him back, who is at fault for the fight? He is, not me. It’s self-defence. She started it, so anything that happens to her is in reaction to her actions .It’s simple cause and effect.” Even though he spent the rest of the calss period ripping into the boys and saying that you are always responsible for your own actions, and that women are allowed to say no and do not have to date them, they left class laughing about how idiotic he was and that he clearly had no idea how much it hurt to be rejected. So now we have a new school shooting, based solely on the fact some guy couldn’t get laid, and I see men, boys, applaudin him, or if they’re not applauding him, they’re laying blame on women as a whole. Just like my sister’s friends did. Just like the boys in my Criminal Justice class did. This isn’t something that’s rare. This isn’t something that never happens, or that a select group of men feel as if they are so entitled to women that saying no is not only the worst possible thing a woman can do, but is considered a form of “defence” when they commit a crime upon them (whether it be rape or murder-as-a-reaction-towards-rejection). Girls are being killed for saying no to prom invites. Girls are being killed for saying no to men. They are creating an atmosphere where women are too scared to say no, and the worst part is? They are doing it intentionally. They want society to be that way, they want women to say yes entirely out of fear. Even the boys and men who aren’t showing up to schools with guns are saying; “Well, you know, I wouldn’t do that, but you have to admit that if she had just said yes …” If you are a man and you defend this guys’ actions or try to find an excuse for it, or you denounce what really happened, or in any way lay blame on women, every girl you know, every woman you love, has just now thought to themselves that you might lose your shit and kill them someday for saying no. You have just lost their trust. And you know what? You deserve to lose it.”
