[HP] Can you be gentle with me

It was sunny and cloudless, and the school's Quidditch competition was in full swing. Since Sirius became the Slytherin striker, Tahlia showed her support, and she would be there whenever it was a Slytherin competition. Today, it was another match of the century against Gryffindor—after all, since James became the Seeker, Slytherin always hated to be the runner-up—so she has no reason to stay indoors and not come out to bask in the sun up.

Sirius had thought more than once that his complexion was too pale, apparently due to the lack of sun exposure, and he said that if he continued like this, he would almost become like Snape.

Given his relationship with Snape, the metaphor was a serious one indeed.

And Snape was sitting next to Tahlia now, grinning and snorting angrily every time James did something fancy.

It's attracting Lily's attention again... Fortunately, Lily has never been attracted by such childish behavior, otherwise he-

He glanced at Tahlia quietly, damn he can't do anything, otherwise Tahlia will be embarrassed... Wait, what does he care about whether she will be embarrassed, anyway, she also knows that he just doesn't see each other with those few people It's pleasing to the eye, not to mention that mysterious secret, he still doesn't know what the hell they're up to, and Tahlia still doesn't plan to tell herself──

The face became more stinky.

So Snape didn't say a word the whole game, and the only moment where he could see any excitement was when James dodged embarrassingly to dodge a Bludger that Sirius had hit past him.

I saw Sirius looking at James with pity and cursing himself angrily, alas, it was almost possible to break the myth of James' invincibility...

"Are you planning to murder me!" James flew slightly closer to Sirius, asking with a dark face.

"How come? I calculated that angle!" Sirius smiled brightly, without any guilt. "Even if it's just a broken arm, Madam Pomfrey will heal in the blink of an eye."

"Sirius Black!" James roared through gritted teeth.

Sirius shrugged, still grinning. "Tahlia comes to see me every game! I can't lose to you every time──"

James was speechless.

It's all about Tahlia, and he can't beat anything—

There was a flash of golden light from the corner of his eyes, and the corners of his mouth raised. "Sorry, buddy! We're going to win this game—" He said, before Sirius could respond, he leaned forward, and the broom flew forward.

"Damn it!" Sirius cursed, and hurriedly followed, the short stick in his hand saw the Bludger and swung it, the club hit James with precision.

It's a pity that James really deserved to be a self-proclaimed flying master. He deftly dodged all these attacks, and the Slytherin Seeker struggled to follow behind.

"This idiot!" Sirius was ashamed, he didn't see any Bludger targets belonged to him, why is the Seeker selected by their academy this year so useless... Was the captain blind at that time?

After all, they lost, 250 points to 110 points.

"Sirius, what a pity." After the match, Tahlia pulled Snape to find Sirius, who was visibly discouraged. "If we catch the Snitch we win—"

Sirius gritted his teeth. "I must ask the captain to replace that trash—"

"If your ball hits Potter, we wouldn't have lost without that trash." Snape's voice floated faintly.

Sirius turned his head sharply and stared at Snape. "You are so good, why didn't you join the team?" He said, and then showed an understanding expression. "Ah, I forgot, you don't even dare to reach the height of ten feet, how can you join the team, you are more than that trash—"

"Okay, you—" Tahlia said immediately, trying to stop Sirius from saying more outrageous words, but it was too late.

"──It's useless.

Then there was another silence.

There seemed to be an aura around the three of them, causing the passing students to avoid them unconsciously, and no one wanted to offend anyone here.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Tahlia was about to say something soothing, but Snape spoke first.

"At least I'm not like you, who can only use this brainless way to attract people's attention." After saying something coldly, Snape turned and walked away without looking back at all.

Tahlia looked back and forth several times in embarrassment, and finally, dropped a sentence. "Sirius, change your robe first, I'll come back to you later──" He said, and hurriedly chased after Snape.

Sirius was stunned, Tahlia had let herself down for that Snape, she had let herself...she had let herself—she had let herself!

His fists were clenched tightly, his heart was stuffy and uncomfortable, why did he always feel this way, and every time when Tahlia turned away from him──

"Hey, Sirius, what are you doing here in a daze?" Suddenly a hand patted his shoulder from behind, Sirius turned his head in a daze, and found that it was James who had changed his robe and was refreshed because he had won the game again , followed by Remus and Peter.

"Tahlia doesn't want me anymore..." he muttered to himself, but he didn't seem to realize what he said.

Everyone's faces were full of doubts.When did Tahlia not want him, and did Sirius really consider him her pet?This behaves like a puppy abandoned by its owner, no, maybe it really is a puppy... considering that there is a 90.00% chance that Sirius' Animagus will be a canine.

Of course, Remus knew about their secret research on Animagus. They expected it well. Remus strongly opposed it after he found out. Convince them not to do this, after all, he was very moved when he knew about it.

"What are you talking about?" Finally, it was Remus who asked.

Sirius looked back blankly. "Did I just say something?"

"You said Tahlia didn't want you anymore..." Peter said weakly, his voice was as small as a mosquito's.

Sirius shook his head immediately. "I didn't say that." The tone was full of determination. "You must have heard it wrong." He nodded while talking, and those who didn't know would definitely think so.

James didn't know where to start complaining, so he had to change the subject in the end. "So what are you standing here for?"

"Change your robe." Sirius answered naturally.

"Then go change it, we'll wait for you here." Remus said gently.

Sirius nodded. "Well, Tahlia said she'd come to me later, she just ran after that guy Snape."

That's it!

Everyone suddenly realized.

But then she was surprised, Tahlia left Sirius behind and ran after Snape!

Sirius seemed to be subconsciously ignoring this matter after experiencing the shock just now. At this moment, he walked into the dressing room with a relaxed humming song to change his robes, so he didn't see the three people outside who were too surprised and petrified in place .

"Severus!" Tahlia shouted, out of breath, Snape already had long hands and long feet, of course not comparable to her height, which made her chase very hard.

Finally catching up to Snape as he slowed down, Tahlia grabbed Snape's robes. "Severus, you're running too fast!"

Snape, however, glanced back nonchalantly. "Could it be my fault?" He looked contemptuously at Tahlia whose head only reached his chest. "I didn't make you so short."

Automatically ignoring Snape's sarcasm, at least he didn't pull his robes off did he? Tahlia spoke with a smile. "Come on, Severus, am I trying to catch up to you?"

"That's why I stopped and you caught up," Snape said dryly.

"No matter what, we've caught up!" Tahlia said confidently.

"—whatever you want." Snape folded his arms across his chest. "What's the matter with you? You came here specially?" As he spoke, he raised an eyebrow.

"Sorry, don't mind Sirius' words," Tahlia said apologetically. "Don't be too angry, I'll talk about him again—"

"Which eye of yours saw me angry?" Snape snorted instead. "Your IQ has gotten worse and worse over the years, Tahlia." There was a pause. "I always feel that you have been assimilated by those idiots for too long, don't you?"

You could tell he was very angry just by running away suddenly. Tahlia said something silently in her mind, but it was better not to say it out loud, lest Snape get angry again.

"Okay, just consider me stupid." Tahlia didn't argue any further, just shrugged. "Don't forget that you promised to do homework together tonight?"

"My memory hasn't degenerated to that extent." Said lightly.

Tahlia smiled bitterly. Snape's stinging words became more and more mature with age. If she hadn't gotten used to it, no one in the whole school would be able to beat him in speech.

Looks like Snape doesn't need to catch up on his own...

"Ah!" Tahlia exclaimed suddenly.

"What's the matter with you!" Snape asked sullenly, obviously stunned by the sudden scream.

Tahlia's mouth fell open. "I, I actually left Sirius there."

silence.

The woman's reaction was a bit too slow—he thought he would have known it when she decided to catch up. Although he felt a little smug in his heart, it would be nice to let that Black be caught occasionally.

I thought about it in my heart, but my mouth was sour. "If you care about him so much, what are you still doing here?" He paused. "I won't waste your time." He said, turned around a corridor and left.

"Seve...rus." Tahlia wanted to stop, but finally gave up.

It's always like this... the smile on her face disappears, no matter what she does, the end result is always like this──

There was a familiar pain in his chest again.

But didn't she make up her mind early?He made up his mind not to back down no matter what, yes, at least he had a peaceful conversation with himself this time——Thinking, he also moved his legs and walked back towards the original path.

And when she walked back to the dressing room, she saw three stone statues, all with wide-eyed expressions of disbelief.

Confused, Tahlia asked as she approached. "What are you doing here like this?"

"Tah…Tahlia!" James shut his mouth. "You, are you back?"

"I'm back, where's Sirius?" Tahlia asked. "Still changing clothes?"

Just as he was talking, the locker room door opened, and Sirius walked out energetically, and greeted Tahlia cheerfully when he saw Tahlia. "Hey, Tahlia."

Tahlia was also relieved to see Sirius look so energetic, it seemed that he didn't care much about chasing Snape, thought, smiled, and extended his hand to say hello. "Hey, any plans for a while?"

"James wants to continue research," Sirius replied. "I think we've come a long way!"

Tahlia raised an eyebrow. "Not beyond that progress?"

"Of course not!" James shook his head quickly.

"We should thank Peter, shouldn't we?" Sirius yawned. "Teaching him wasted a lot of our time—uh, sorry, Peter, I don't mean to blame you—" After being glared at by Tahlia, he quickly apologized to Peter and shut his mouth obediently.

Remus listened to everyone's conversation, and was still moved in his heart. He thanked Merlin for allowing him to meet such good friends, and they were even willing to do so many things for him!

"No, it doesn't matter - I don't care, Sirius," Peter said, giving Tahlia a grateful look as well.

"Yeah, that's the best." Sirius smiled brightly.He turned to look at Tahlia with a look of admiration.

Tahlia rolled her eyes instead. "Don't look at me like that. Aren't you going to study? Then go quickly. I also have something to do... I don't want to waste this weekend──"

"Tahlia, do you have any more books to study?" Remus thought Tahlia wanted to study again.

Tahlia shook her head. "No, I have other things to do..." Mr. has to do it himself. Since returning from Hogsmeade that time, Mr. has assigned some tasks one after another, but none of them are difficult to do. Sometimes it is to ask her to observe a person silently, and then write a report to him, and sometimes it is to pay attention to whether the principal has eaten in the cafeteria for him. Among them, the most relaxing thing for her is to give some books in the library to I copied a copy and sent it to him, because when I was copying the books, I was also reading those books at the same time.
