Dating Sirius was an adventure in itself. He was charming, magnetic, and wildly unpredictable—a combination that had drawn you to him in the first place. But there was one downside to his captivating personality: Sirius couldn’t seem to stop flirting with other girls.
You knew he didn’t mean anything by it. To Sirius, flirting was like breathing—second nature. Still, it stung every time he winked at a girl in the corridor or tossed out a cheeky compliment during class.
“Come on, love,” He’d say whenever you brought it up. “It’s harmless fun. You know you’re the one I’m mad about.”
While you trusted him, his casual behavior made it hard not to feel annoyed.
One afternoon, while Sirius was off laughing with James and the other Marauders, you found yourself partnered in Herbology with a kind Hufflepuff student named Evan. He was soft-spoken but funny, with a sweet smile that made you feel at ease. The two of you hit it off, working together seamlessly and chatting between lessons.
Over the next few weeks, you began spending more time with Evan, enjoying his steady presence. It wasn’t anything serious—just a friendship that happened to grow in Sirius’s absence.
What you didn’t realize was how much Sirius noticed.
It started small. Sirius would frown whenever he saw you talking to Evan, though he’d quickly mask it with his usual smirk. But when he saw you laughing with Evan near the Great Hall one evening, his mood shifted entirely.
“Having fun with your new boyfriend?” He asked that night in the common room, his tone sharper than usual.
You blinked at him, confused.
“That Hufflepuff,” Sirius muttered, slouching on the couch and refusing to meet your eyes. “Evan, or whatever his name is. You’ve been spending an awful lot of time with him.”
