❝she was a beautiful dreamer.
the kind of girl who
kept her head in the clouds,
loved above the S T A R S
and left regret beneath the EARTH
she walked on.❞

Sirius ran as quickly as his human feet would carry him. Bobbing and weaving between the bodies of unsuspecting students, who had started filling out into the hallway after the bell rang. It was nearly perfect timing, serving as cover for Sirius while he very narrowly escaped Filch. The seventh year rounded a corner at full speed, his trainers slipping and sending him veering off course by several feet. He dropped down low in an effort to stop himself from sliding any further and with a thud, Sirius hit the ground. Before the man had the chance to catch up, he was scrambling to his feet again.
Furious, incoherent shouting, came from just a ways down the corridor. Stopping short at the next turn, the idea for Sirius to duck into a classroom and hide occurred to him suddenly. It was a mad dash to the nearest door without being spotted again, passersby purposefully moving out of the way now to clear a path. Most of them didn’t know what was going on. They had no clue that in only the first few back in school, someone would’ve had the nerve to transfigure the office furniture of the caretaker into different farm animals.
However, those people clearly weren’t well acquainted with Sirius, now standing on the opposite side of a door to a classroom he thought was empty. He draws out his wand, uttering a quiet spell to lock himself in. Once he’s sure that the coast is clear, he’ll venture back out. Finally, his adrenaline starts to dull, which leaves him panting against the wall. When realising he’d not alone as he previously though, the colour drains from his face. Staring at him with a puzzling expression is Lily, of all people. Her ‘Head Girl’ badge pinned visibly on her uniform. “Oh,” Sirius says casually, despite his still ragged breathing. “Hi, Evans. I didn’t see you there.“
from the second she stepped off the platform onto hogwarts grounds lily felt like she was being forced to put on an act. a brave face, a nonchalant smile, the admirable head girl everyone expected her to be and merlin forbid she didn’t deliver. it was all rushing by at hyper speed, the greetings, meetings with the new prefects, getting the first years in order for the sorting feast, saying hello to old friends and avoiding those she didn’t consider friendly any longer, it was all bloody EXHAUSTING. of course, she didn’t falter, her bright smile glued onto her lips though it didn’t quite reach her eyes. until she just couldn’t take it any longer.
so she ran.
over the years lily had become quite the agile little minx, there was a reason why the troublesome redhead was hardly ever caught misbehaving and it served her well that afternoon as she evaded any familiar faces a she scurried towards the third floor, slipping into an empty room where she could finally BREATHE. with a low groan, the red head lowered herself onto one of the empty chairs and pulled out a fresh pack of cigarettes she’d kept concealed within her robes, shaking out a stick before raising it to her lips and fishing out her trusty lighter. just as she was about to light the cigarette a fumbling clamour caught her attention and the last person she would have ever imagined to see was suddenly leaning back against the shut door, his laboured breaths eliciting a soft giggle from the girl.
lily stepped forward, tucking the unlit cigarette between her ear and her fiery locks. she felt relief wash over her, his friendly face erasing any sort of anxiety she had bottled up moments prior. in many ways, sirius black was much more useful than a deadly smoke stick. ❝you alright there black? you look pretty out of breath. you wouldn’t happen to be running away from trouble now would you?❞ she teased, a playful gleam shining in her eyes as she stepped forward to pull him into a tight embrace.
