𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗦𝗧 𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗔𝗟 day of summer was bound to be one that Toula Labropoulos would remember until she was old and grey. Either in a good way, or a horrible way. But despite that, Toula had basically vowed that she would spend her summer days with the one and only Sirius Orion Black. And god knows why she made such a terrible decision.

The girl had put on a nice long (loose of course, hiding her awful figure) black dress over her white top. And as soon as the clock hit one, Toula headed over to the hillside behind her and Sirius' neighborhood. (Bringing her violin, of course.)

"Hello Sirius." Toula said walking up the grassy hill to see Sirius wearing his usual leather jacket and jeans.

How does he look so effortlessly attractive? Oh my goodness stop Toula...that's disgusting it's stupid Sirius Black were talking about...

"There she is," Sirius said leaning on a tree, "Miss Toula Labropoulos. Looking stunning as usual."

I look like a total pig. I'm sure that Ambrosia would look like a goddess in this dress, Toula thought.

Toula looked down at the grass, surely regretting her answer to Sirius' question last night.

"I look stupid." Toula mumbled.

Sirius' expression turned from teasing to very serious. The Black boy then put his hand on Toula's shoulder.

"You look fine Toula. Don't doubt yourself." Sirius stated.

Toula didn't meet Sirius' black eyes and continued to stare down at the grass.

"Come on, let's start." Toula said picking up her polished violin (almost dropping it from her jitters) from its shiny golden case.

"Where do we start then?" Sirius smiled.

"Um — I guess — posture." Toula said, practically choking on her words.

What was I thinking? I can barely say a sentence around him.

After she had placed the shoulder rest on the violin, Toula placed her violin into Sirius' hands, moved behind Sirius, positioned the violin into playing position in Sirius' arms.

"You smell good today Tooley." Sirius whispered.

Toula suddenly started to choke to death on her own saliva.

"Toula you alright?" Sirius said stroking her back.

Toula nodded, her face slightly blue from her random intense choking.

"I'm fine. Try and pluck the strings Black." Toula said, taking few steps away from him.

Why I am so embarrassing?

A few hours later, the sun had set. Birds were chirping, and the violin session had ended. Currently, Toula and Sirius were sitting next to the tree.

As Toula continued to read her book, Sirius moved slightly closer to her.

Oh my goodness what he is doing...don't do anything idiotic Toula...

"I see you like reading romance hm?" Sirius mumbled reading the open page. "I didn't know you were into that stuff."

"Yes." Toula said, clearing her throat and moving slightly farther from Sirius.

Sirius sighed and looked up at the beautiful scenery. "I can't believe we're going to be sixth years soon."

Toula nodded, knowing if she talked anymore she would be making a fool out of herself anytime soon.

"I hope McKinnon gets off my back. I mean she's hilarious and a, but, she just wants me to snog her all the time. Which I don't mind a good snog but...it just get's a bit boring with her."

Toula rolled her eyes. All he talked about was snogging. And Toula hadn't even had her first kiss!

He is so self absorbed. And he wonders why I don't get along with him.

"Who knows what could happen, maybe me and James will finally get prefect."

Toula looked up from her book, and started to snort.

"What's so funny? You think me and James can't be prefect."

Sirius smiled to himself. Her magical laugh was quite contagious.

Sirius joined the laughter.

The two then stopped laughing as they heard Toula's father, Lukas', voice.

"MUFFIN, YOUR MOTHER SAYS ITS TIME TO COME INSIDE NOW!"

Sirius looked at her and started to snigger.

"Muffin, really Toula?" Sirius said with a goofy (but charming) smile.

Toula's face tightened with anger.

"I hate you Black." Toula growled with venom, then walked down the hill. Almost falling.

Toula had just then, at that moment, mentally decided there was no absolute way she could spend the rest of her summer with that self-obsessed pervert.

"Why do you look so angry muffin?" Lukas asked as Toula entered the house for dinner.

"You look like Papa when he fount out in the newspaper Greece lost the Quidditch World Cup." Ambrosia laughed.

"Please do not get your father started on quidditch please." Alodia mumbled stirring the pot full of Greek Spinach Rice.

"It is a big deal!" Lukas huffed. "You know how much the Greece Quidditch Team mean to me."

"I know it is a very big deal to you Glykouli." Alodia said kissing her husband's cheek. "Where is your mother gone? I feel like she is hiding something from us."

"With her friends apparently. I feel she is hiding something as well." Lukas noted.

Honestly, Toula did not mind one bit that her grandmother was away from the home very frequently these days. It seemed like a heavy weight had been lifted from Toula's chest. But that weight was revived when her yiayia returned from her 'tea with friends' and started to scream at her again.

But Toula then remembered that whenever her grandmother hid something, the secret was never a good one.

"Anyways, why were you so mad?" Ambrosia said as she put some nude lipstick on Toula's lips. "You look so pretty when you wear lipstick Toula."

Toula wiped off the lipstick with her arm. "Someone was just being a total idiot. I don't even know why I was spending my day with them, we don't even get along that well. We're total opposites. And don't put the lipstick on me."

"Why not?" Ambrosia asked.

Because I look like a troll with or without makeup on.

"I just don't like it." Toula said curling up on the sofa and sitting next to her elder sister.

"Well I think you should. You're a teenage girl after all. You need to have fun. Meet some boys and maybe kiss some." Ambrosia said putting on some lip-liner.

"You say that easily because your one of the biggest supermodels in the world." Toula shrugged. "People would probably pay for you to spit on them for Merlins' sake. I heard Eric Chang say it himself."

"Well you are my sister. Which makes you even more beautiful." Ambrosia said. "And I think you should hang out more with that person you were talking about."

"You mean Sirius — I mean Daisy Quest from across the street?"

"Yes. I think you should hang out with Daisy more. You two are opposites, but opposites attract don't they Toula? And maybe you shouldn't judge Daisy too much. Maybe she's not such a bad person after all."

Toula thought for a minute. "Well I suppose your right."

"Girls dinner!"

"Coming Mama!"
