Kelsey sat at the Hufflepuff table that morning with Astrid sneaking nervous glances at the door. Her breakfast lay untouched. She was still waiting for her masterpiece to arrive.
"You need to eat," Astrid pushed the croissants and glass of juice in front of Kelsey.
"I'm not hungry."
"Trust me. You'll need the energy to run when they show up," Astrid said with a knowing look.
Kelsey pursed her lips and grabbed the food. "Good point," she said while chewing.
"KELPIE WHATEVER-YOUR-MIDDLE-NAME-IS JONES!"
The door to the Great Hall swung open with a great thud. Almost everyone in the hall turned their attention to the commotion instantly. There were collective gasps.
Kelsey got up a little to peek through the heads and saw Sirius Black- or should she say Sirius Green & Silver, making his way to her looking very angry. With his wand in his hand, he stormed over.
She turned to look at Astrid who was wide-eyed.
Her best friend mouthed Run to her. Who was Kelsey to doubt her? She stuffed the last of that croissant into her mouth gracelessly and got up, snatching her bag trying to make a break for it but he caught her by the robes before she could.
"You!" He seethed venomously.
"Oh, Mornin' Black," Kelsey stopped with his grip on her robes still. He looked at her with murder in his steely grey eyes. "Is something different? I could have sworn something's different about you today," she said, looking at him innocently.
"You did this!"
"I have no idea what you mean," she said coolly.
"Change it back!"
The other three Marauders caught up next to Sirius in front of the Hufflepuff table with them. They stood there, arms crossed looking at Kelsey in amusement.
"Again- no idea what you mean," Kelsey could have sworn he almost burst a vein. "Oh- I know! It's your hair!" She clapped her hands together.
"Miss Jones, Miss Black!" the two turned to see the head of their houses making their way down from the professor's table to them.
Kelsey freed herself from his grasp and just as she was about to walk away, he pulled her to him one last time. Warmth flooded her, along with something that fluttered inside.
He mumbled in her ear, "You'll regret this." She gulped and looked into his eyes. Gone was the fury, replaced with a glint of mischief. "Oh, the fun we'll have, Kelpie," he said before finally letting her go.
