Kris swallowed and said, "I'm fine... other then the end of last year, after a run in with someone, my life went down hill. But that's not what I want to talk to you about." She hadn't even told her about that attack.

Norah leaned closer to her, seemingly oblivious to what Kris had just said. "Baby, you have a smudge of dirt on your cheek. Hold on, let me get it," she said. She opened up her purse and pulled out a tissue, then spit on it. "Come here, let me get that off of you."

Sirius sat staring as the strange woman seemed to come out of nowhere and hugged Kris. But Kris seemed to know her, and he realized that this must be the woman who had raised her. She seemed a bit odd to him. And she'd called him beastly!
He'd barely been able to speak as the woman practically dragged Kris away to another table to talk. He assumed that Kris was going to tell him about staying here with Remus... but another part of him wondered if maybe she was going to tell her adopted mother whatever it was she'd been trying to tell him. Sirius was starting to get annoyed by her secret. What could possibly be so bad as to keep it from him all this time? Was it really the reason she'd been so different lately? He wished she'd just spit it out already.
As he sat there, staring after her, he finished his butterbeer. He'd been gulping it down the whole time, and now his glass was empty. He took another look over at Kris and the strange woman, but they didn't look like they'd be done anytime soon. So he got up and headed to the bar to get a refill on his drink.
But as he walked, he realized Amy was right there...

Kris didn't move, "I need to tell you something, so, listen." She looked at her chocolate bar still unsure how to say it. She seemed a little different from the last time she saw her, she wasn't sure what it was.

Norah wiped the damp tissue on Kris's cheek. "There, that's better. And what have I told you about eating chocolate? You're going to balloon up, and no boy will look at you." She leaned back and smiled at Kris. "Oh, but baby, you do look good. You're getting so grown up. You shouldn't have stayed out of touch so long. I've missed you terribly. The cat had kittens, did you know that? Oh, and your poor bunny, Flopsy died. I think he missed you too much. Anyway, what was that about a run-in? You weren't hurt, were you, baby? Do I have to find this person and beat the stuffing out of them?"

"Chocolate makes me feel better." Kris said then added in a mutter, "Besides, you're not my mother." She bit her lower lip, then said, "I'm staying here, with my real family." She tried to say it as nicely as she could.

Amy glanced up every once in awhile to glance around and just see if anyone else had entered that she may have known. Before she knew it, she was finished with her butterbeer. She didn't get up, because a woman came in. The woman caught Amy's interest and she just sat back and observed. It appeared that the woman knew Kris. Amy continued to observe, then went to pick up her mug, only to realize that it was empty. She gave a sigh and stood up, carrying her mug back up to the bar for a refill. While she was up there, Sirius appeared. Amy glanced over and she couldn't take her eyes away. "Hey," she whispered. It would be wrong for her not to polite, wouldn't it? Amy turned back to the bar, asking for a refill.

Norah continued on as if she hadn't heard her. "This person you had a run-in with, it wasn't that boy over there, was it? He had a bad look about him, like the kind of boy who'll break your heart. I don't want that to happen to you, not yet... you're just so young... boys can be so cruel. But really, baby, why haven't you written to me? I've been so lonesome without you..."

"No, it wasn't him and I like him, he's my boyfriend, the person I had a run-in with was a man... the same one my brother had a run-in with and tore my family apart." Kris glanced over at the table only to find Sirius gone. "If he does break my heart it'd be my fault."

"Your boyfriend?" Norah burst out, shocked. "Oh, my baby, you didn't tell me you had a boyfriend... you're growing up so fast... Are you sure you're ready for that? And couldn't you date a boy a little less attractive? I'm sure there's a nice fat kid you could date...." She reached across the table and placed her hands on either side of her face, squeezing her face together into a pout. "I just don't want you to get hurt, baby. And don't say it's your fault, boys always do that, they make the girl think it's her fault, but it's not. The boy is always at fault, do you hear me? Always!"

Kris wondered why she only heard every other word she said, it didn't make sense, it was like she hadn't said she was staying with her real family. She kept glancing at the table hoping Sirius would come back soon.

Norah smoothed out Kris's hair, then pulled away and looked at her worriedly. "Now then, about this man you had a run-in with, who was it? What did he do to you? Did he hurt you? Please, baby, you know you can tell me..."

"It's not important." Kris said, she didn't want her to know before Sirius knew. She didn't think she should know anyway, she wasn't family.

Amy turned back to the bar, asking for a refill. Sirius walked up to the bar, right next to Amy. His heart was pounding in his chest, and he was sure his palms were sweating. What was it about her that made him react this way? "Hey," he replied, his voice cracking. He cleared his throat and ordered a refill on his butterbeer. "Um, Amy..." he said as the bartender walked away to get their drinks, "I, uh... I think we need to talk."

"If you were hurt, I need to know. Why are you keeping things from me? Talk to me, baby... have you been gone so long, you've forgotten who it was who took care of you all those years? Maybe I should make some of that pie you liked so much..."

"No, I haven't forgotten but I do know I am staying with my real family, my father and brother." Kris was getting a little annoyed that she wasn't listening to her. "I'm not going back to your house other then to get my things."

Norah froze in that moment, finally having heard what Kris had been trying to tell her. "What?" she said, her voice and expression both turning very hard and very cold. "You don't mean that." Her tone was flat and filled with anger and disbelief.

"I do, I want to be with my dad and brother, I want to be able to remember my real mother." Kris kept the letters her father gave her with her all the time. "Why didn't you send my letters to them?" She was a little hurt.

Amy turned to Sirius as he spoke. Curiosity started to arise as she tilted her head to the side slightly. "Um. OK," she replied with a nod. Her mind began to race about what they needed to speak of. However, only one thing came to the front of her mind clearly. The kiss. Amy figured that if this is what they were going to talk about, she was going to tell him to not worry about it and just forget about it. It was something that just happened. Although, could she just forget about what happened? She doubted it, but she could at least try, couldn't she? The bartender returned with both of their glasses. "What is this stuff that we need to talk about?"

Sirius took a sip from his butterbeer. "I... It's about that kiss." He sighed. "Look, Amy... I like you... more than I should... but you know I have a girlfriend. I love Kris, even if she drives me crazy sometimes. I don't want to lose her. And if this... thing between us, whatever it is, keeps happening, she's going to get hurt. I don't want that to happen, OK? We have to stop this."
Even as he said these words, however, he found himself staring into her eyes. They were so bright and sparkling...
