Sirius had woken up that morning feeling on top of the world. Even a run in with Bella and her friends hadn't deterred his good mood. Nothing could ruin how brilliant he was feeling right now. He walked down the corridors with a spring in his step and a grin on his face. As he passed a group of young females they stopped talking and stared up at him. Of course Sirius being Sirius couldn't help but send them his famous wink and left them in fits of giggles.
The day seemed to mirror his mood and the sun shined on him as soon as he left the castle. It seemed that most of the students had the same idea as he had. They were all enjoying the good weather as much as possible becuase in this country it didn't happen much and you had to make to most of it when it came.
He scanned the lawns in search for his friends and he soon found them. They were sat under the tree that was known by the whole school as 'Property of The Marauders'. He was just about to make his way over when he heard his name being called from the opposite direction. Sirius recognised the voice and turned around.

Of course the voice belonged to none other than Nemesis, who stood quite a bit away from Sirius, having just come from the Quidditch Pitch with the rest of the Slytherin team, after a few hours' practise. It was obvious she had stopped upon seeing Sirius, for the rest of the team continued on, turning their heads every once in awhile to throw glares in either her direction or in Sirius's. She ignored them as she began to walk toward him.
It was evident that she had come from practise. A thin sheen of perspiration made her skin glitter slightly in the sun. Her cheeks were slightly tinged with pink, as were her arms, due to being beneath the sun for quite some time. Then again, most of her skin was left bare, as she was wearing a tank top and rather tiny shorts. She held one hand to her brow to shade the sun from her eyes.
It was also very evident that she was in a good mood. Not only did she appear to not care about the weather--which most people considered nice, but she usually didn't care for--but she was actually smiling. Although that probably had something to do with Sirius.

Regulus had been watching the practise while it had been going on, and was a bit disappointed to find that it was over, and not just because of Nemesis. While he didn't play Quidditch, he did like to watch it on occasion. Sometimes the team would let their housemates come watch practise, and he took every opportunity to do so.
He had waited a bit after the team had left to make his own exit, and as soon as he left the pitch, he noticed that Nemesis had trailed behind. He raised a brow and followed her with the intentions of asking why, but quickly realised why she was dawdling.
As soon as he saw his brother, his gentle gaze toward Nemesis turned into a full-fledged glare of death at Sirius. He bit his lip and made a sour face. Still, so as not to look suspicious, he followed Nemesis a bit further, shuffling his feet, letting his hair flop into his eyes. That damned brother of his...

He grinned broadly at his girlfriend and sauntered over to her. His arms automatically wrapped themselves around her and he placed a small kiss on her lips. "Hey, I see you've been practising" he said then joked, "but we're still gong to kick your arses. I suppose Slytherin will have an advantage though, what with Gryffindor's star beater being unable to concentrate. I'll be too busy noticing how god-damn hot you look when you're all sweaty."
It was then that he noticed, out of the corner of his eye, that his idiot of a brother was glaring at him. If looks could kill then Sirius would be stone cold by now. He knew they didn't get along, at all, but he knew that Regulus never sent him those looks unless he'd one something and as far as he knew he hadn't done anything. He frowned for a moment then decided that there was only one thing for it. He raised his middle finger at his little brother and sent a glare back. "So how are you?" he asked trying to forget about Regulus and released her from his grip.

Laughing softly, Nemesis shook her head at Sirius and the mental images that train of thought brought her. "It's not my fault the rest of the team are trolls," she pouted as she spoke. "You know," her voice dropped an octave as she looked at him seductively, "There are other ways to get me sweat, if you're brave enough to try them."
She laughed again a bit, then when he pulled away, replied, "Oh, I'm alright. A little warm... a little crisp on the edges, but I'm alright." She looked over her shoulder, watching Regulus momentarily with a curious look on her face. She raised an eyebrow and turned back to Sirius, muttering, "Well, what's he looking at?"

Immediately, Regulus's glare toward Sirius intensified with a mix of anger and jealousy. He folded his arms over his chest, scowling as his brother threw a rude gesture his way. At least he was mature enough not to respond to that. Instead, he opted for a different method of response.
When Nemesis turned around for all of two seconds, his scowl turned into a smooth smile and he nodded his head slightly at her. He let his arms drop to his sides, shaking his hair out of his face, trying to appear charming and sincere. "Hello, Nemesis. Beautiful weather we're having, isn't it?" He spoke eloquently. "Such a shame it's ruined by that foul stench. Oh, don't you smell it? I believe that's what they call 'blood traitor'."

"Of course I'm brave enough, I'm a Gryffindor aren't I?" he said matching her tone, "And I can do more than just make you sweat. Like I said before, I can make you scream. I'll have to demonstrate sometime." He didn't look back at Regulus but dipped his head down and whispered in Nemsis' ear with a laugh, "He's just jealous because I got all the good looks and he was left with...well, nothing."
Sirius rolled his eyes at his brother's insult that was so obviously aimed him. He finally gave in and faced him. "How original. And here I was think you might actually know what an insult is. You should know by now that no matter how many times you call me a blood traitor, I still don't give a shit. In fact I find in complimenting. Now why don't you go cry to Mummy like you always do? And while you're at it I advise you to grow up!" he snarled. "Just ignore him Nem, if you do he'll go away eventually," Sirius said as he reached down and laced their fingers and giving her hand a quick squeeze.

"We should arrange for that very, very soon," Nemesis nearly grinned, "I'd really like to see what you always brag about in action." Then, she snickered slightly. "Well, at least you don't pretend to like him..."
"Not soon enough," she replied under her breath upon hearing Sirius's final comment. She almost laughed at the remark about his mother, but managed to bite it back and turned to look at Regulus again. She spoke directly to him. "Is there a problem, Regulus? You know if there is, you can always say it to your brother, instead of telling me. You know I'm not interested in whatever trouble it is you're having."

"That is not why I'm jealous!" Regulus shouted, losing his temper after he heard Sirius's words. "I'm just as good as you are, you slimy git."
"And at least Mum cares about me, which is more than you can say." He resisted the urge to stick his tongue out at his brother and forgot about looking charming, making a sour face and folding his arms again. "She at least gave me the time of day. She wouldn't even look at you."
He looked almost taken aback when Nemesis spoke directly to him, but forced the slight blush away and pursed his lips. "You know, I really don't know what you see in him. I'd be careful. God knows how many girls he's seeing behind your back."

Looks like he had been just in time. It seemed Sirius was being teased by a couple of wanna be Death eaters. He frowned at that. No way were they going to bother his best friend at THEIR tree of all places. He was already irked at Nemesis for surveying him like a piece of meat the other day and here was another nasty figure, Regulus Black. Poor Sirius for even being unlucky to be related to such a lanky bastard.
He wandered behind them, arms folded and finally moved towards Sirius, wand out if necessary. "Hey, back off if you know what's best for you. And you're nowhere as good as Sirius is. He at least has a soul. Don't make me hex you if I have the chance, Regulus. You wouldn't see it coming."

"Thanks Prongs, the pipsqueak had me worried for a minute there!" he laughed and grinned at his best friend.
"I don't need to pretend," he smirked moving his arm around her waist, "Trust me, you won't be disappointed. But are you sure? I don't want you rushing in to anything you're not ready for, we've got all the time in the world."
Sirius gritted his teeth at Regulus remark about their mother. Everything that he said was true. Sure he despised both of hs parents but still, knowing that your own mother hated your guts hurt even him. Though not much now as it had a few years ago. But that last night, when he'd stormed out and never returned, it had been his turning point. "She's not my mother," he stated. "She isn't even human! How can you be so deluded that you still can't see her for what she really is? A spiteful, old hag! I'm glad she never liked me if it would've meant ending up an ignorant git like you."

As soon as James stepped in, Regulus' gaze swung to the other Gryffindor. "Stay out of this, Potter," he growled. "Though I can see why you would need to protect your little boyfriend. He is pitiful after all."
He smirked, proud and thinking he would have the upper hand because of Sirius' lashing out at him. "Keep telling yourself that. You may be able to lie to yourself, to your friends, to your girlfriend, but you can't lie to me, Sirius. I grew up with you. I know more about you than you'd ever want to imagine. You may tell yourself you don't care, that it doesn't bother you, but I know you do. I can see it; it's written all over your face."
Then, he turned to Nemesis, just to make matters worse and told her, "Don't listen to him when he's trying to be sweet to you and not push you into something you don't want to do. He says that to all of them." He sneered. "Bet he's lost count of how many girls he's slept with then tossed aside for 'fresh meat'. It's only a matter of time until he does it to you, too. Thought you were smarter than that, you know."

Nemesis clenched her fist at her side, trying to keep her temper in check. It wasn't working very well. She clasped Sirius's forearm with her free hand to keep him from doing anything to Regulus that would get him into serious trouble. But as Regulus spoke, she glared at him, her cheeks slowly reddening.
"Piss off, Regulus," she spat. "Just because you're jealous of him doesn't mean you have to tell me complete bullshit as though you really think I'd believe it. Why would I trust your word over his? Hell, even if that was true about him, I wouldn't care. But I know he wouldn't do that to me. I trust him; I love him. But I see you find that kind of hard to understand, what, being the oxygen-deprived little git you are. You'd never know how that feels."

The little shit was actually getting to him! He was in trouble now if even Regulus made sense. But soon the scare was over and he came up with his retort, "Yes but you see Reggie, that works two ways. I had to put up with you for the best part of fifteen years and I know you pretty well so before you start thinking you can blackmail and threaten me just remember that little fact. I know about that creature you fear so unless you want all your pureblood mates knowing then I'd keep my mouth shut if I were you!"
"Just because girls are desperate enough to touch something as disgusting as you doesn't mean you have to take it out on everyone else," he said, feigning sweetness. "For once Reg, you're right. I'll admit I have lost count, and I do say it to them all but that's because I mean it. This may be news to you but there are plenty of decent guys out there who actually care about women just like I care about Nemesis."
He was slightly shocked by her outburst. She'd had a go at him like that once or twice but that was a while ago now. But what kept coming back to him were the words 'I love him'. He hadn't been expecting them but he smiled nevertheless.

At this, Regulus cracked, completely balking. His face drained of colour, becoming completely pale, just staring at Sirius. "You couldn't," he whined. "You wouldn't! Even I'm not that low!" he nearly shrieked. "She may not have liked you but she did pass on some traits to you, Mum did! You're a little worm, Sirius Orion Black, and if you EVER tell anyone I'll--"
In his fury, he had forgotten what his threat was, and bit his tongue hard, trying to think of one that would scare his brother. He came up with nothing. He had been defeated yet again.
He inhaled deeply, calming himself a bit, before sneering, "Do you mean it? Why so many then? I thought love was supposed to be about 'the one' and all those stupid things girls are always harping about. It's because you're the 'Amazing Sirius Black' isn't it? No rules apply to you. No committment, no problem. Mmhmm... I see it now. Just find any girl who's easy and bang you get exactly what you want, no questions asked. I hear you're quite the manwhore."
