Bring me to lift
How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home
Wake me up inside
Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run before I come undone
Save me from the nothing I've become
Now that I know what I've without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life
Wake me up inside
Wake me up inside
Call my name and save me from the dark
Bid my blood to run before I become undone
Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
Frozen inside without your touch without your love
Darling only you are the life among the dead
All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought without a voice without a soul
Don't let me die here there must be something more
Bring me to life
(Bring me to Life by Evanescence. I believe that the song goes quit well with the story. If you manage to read through it all, you'll be able to tell me if you agree; though there will be quit a few chapters so bear with me you'll enjoy.)
Changes
It's the summer holidays, schools out for another year; their third year will be starting in six weeks. But first they have to get through the summer in track.
Sirius Black wrote to Nissa Tiania a lot at the start of the holidays trying to get her too met up with him and friends, so he could see her to make sure that she was alright considering how last year had ended, but Nissa never wrote back to him. She got his letters but she couldn't bring herself to write back.
Severus Snape didn't spend much time at his own house, well not alone anyway, he couldn't stand being in the house with his parents always arguing with one another it drove him mad listening to their voices.
He spent most of his time around at Lestrange's and Ludovic's house, enmeshing them selves in dark magic, as much as they could get their hands on.
Bellatrix stepped out of the fire place and smiled at the three of them; she walked over and sat down next to Lestrange. Her dark hair was pulled back which made her look a little older, and she was dressed in black; black robes black top and black trousers. Well so was Severus.
But the other two manage to wear a bit of colour, mainly dark green, which of course goes well with Slytherin colours.
"Hi, any of you up to doing something a little different today?" Bellatrix asked.
"What do you have in mind then?" Severus asked.
"Well, that girlfriend of yours, she lives with the Manus' they should have better books." Bellatrix suggested. "And you get to see your girlfriend at the same time. Rumour has it that she isn't seeing Sirius anymore, personal I'm quit glad I never did like them two together."
Severus was on his feet ready to go at hearing this news. "Let's go then."
"Very eager aren't we?" Lestrange said smiling at his friends.
Severus didn't say anything and he didn't correct Bellatrix either, Nissa was a girl and they were friends, so she could be his girlfriend; but before the year was out she was really going to be his girlfriend.
Lestrange's father drove them all out to the Manus' house out in the country he decided that he would stay as well and talk with Infidus about some business. He knocked on the door a moment later a house elf opened it and let them all in and showed them into the dinnering room where Infidus was sat.
Infidus stood the moment he saw them all enter, he was quit pleased to see Mr Lestrange, and wasn't that bored that he had brought the children with him they could get Nissa out of the house and out of his way.
"Welcome." Infidus said pleasantly enough to them all.
"Is Nissa in please?" Severus asked.
Infidus looked at him for a while before he decided to answer him. "You don't know what it is I've done, but whatever it was you don't believe it was right."
Severus just glared at him, the other's didn't really know what he was talking about; they only knew it had to be something big for Severus to act like that towards Infidus because no one crossed him.
"If you do something wrong then you must be punished for it." Infidus told him.
"She didn't write back to you, that's all." Severus shot at him, unable to stop himself.
Infidus smiled at him suddenly looking at him very differently then before. "I like you, make her see you, open her eyes."
Infidus walked off with Mr Lestrange, leaving them alone with the house elf, a little confused about what had just happened. Bellatrix looked at Severus and then at the house elf.
"Is Nissa in?" Bellatrix demanded.
The elf nodded, unable to answer her.
"I'll get her, where's her bedroom?" Bellatrix asked.
"First door on your left, the room at the front." Severus told her.
"Wait here, I'll be back in a minute with your girlfriend and you can tell us what that was all about." Bellatrix told him as she walked off to the stairs.
Bellatrix made her way up stairs and along to hall on the first floor, there were two doors at the front, she knocked on the door to the right. No one answered; she pushed open the door and walked through. She quickly dodged out of the way as something flew straight for her, she just covered her head when it hit the wall behind her and blowing a hole where it had hit.
"My, my haven't we got a fiery temper." Bellatrix said smiling as she straightens herself.
Nissa just stood there unmoved in front of her double four poster bed, she had a walk in wardrobe a desk and chair and a large cage for Siren her owl.
"What do you want?" Nissa asked her.
"Well I was coming to see if you were coming out with us." Bellatrix told her. "But I would much rather know what was in that potion's vial."
Nissa smiled wryly at her as she walked over. "I'm not telling you about the potion." She had a dark red pencil skirt with a very long slit up her left leg and knee boots, with a purple and red sleeveless top.
They made their way back down stairs, neither talked to the other, Bellatrix was a little annoyed that she wouldn't tell her about the potion but had an idea.
"Very nice." Lestrange approved when he saw her. "I don't normally like muggle clothes, but some aren't that bad are they?"
"Yeah right what ever." Nissa said off handled, as she walked out with Bellatrix and them behind.
"There not from a muggle shop, she design's and makes them herself." Severus told him. "These clothes what we wore for the Ball, she designed them."
"Really." Bellatrix said. "You'll have to do us lot something, something that says who and what we are."
"Dark and evil, I'm sure I'll be able to do something." Nissa told her.
"Great." Bellatrix said.
"Dark and evil?" Lestrange asked.
Nissa received quit a few letters from Sirius making sure that she was alright, but she didn't answer any of them, she couldn't. She wasn't even sure what to tell him.
They spent quit a bit of time at Nissa's though Infidus' personal library was a lot better then anything that their families have got, and they didn't even mind spending time with Nissa either. She did design them all new clothes, and also for her classmates who were all going to some party someone was having. Though of course none of them were going, they hadn't been invited and didn't want to go anyway.
***
Sirius had spent most of his time at the Potter's and again, when they both received a letter inviting them to a party; from a fifth year Ravenclaw they didn't really know that well.
They both decided to go, and Sirius thought that he might see Nissa there considering from what they had heard that nearly everyone was going; it was the party to be at this summer.
Sirius and James went together and meet up with Remus and Peter there, they looked quit good though Peter looked as though he could of gotten dressed in the dark or by his mother, which Sirius teased him about while they were getting their drinks.
While they were all getting drinks they had drawn a crowd of girls around them, all smiling and trying to get their attention. Sirius smiled at them all playfully as he looked for Nissa among the sea of people.
"Hey Lily, is Nissa here?" Sirius asked her.
"She isn't coming." Bella told him, who was stood next to Lily. She smiled at Sirius; she was wearing a blue dress with silver embroidered into the straps. (Nissa had designed her dress.)
"Oh right." Sirius said, and then smiled at Bella. "Dance."
He took Bella's hand and led her out onto the dance floor which was already crowded. Remus wasn't at all impressed, James though was; and then found a pretty girl of his own considering that Lily wouldn't dance with him.
But James didn't get very far when Lily pulled him off the dance floor.
"Isn't he going out with Nissa?" Lily shot at him.
"So?" James asked.
"You're his best friend, talk to him." Lily told him, James just smiled at her Lily stormed off annoyed with him.
James turned to Remus who was stood next to him a little confused about what just happened.
"Anyone would think the way she was going on, that it was my fault." James said.
James and Sirius had finally managed to drag Remus onto the dance floor after about ten minutes, but he was still annoyed with Sirius who seemed to be dancing with everyone girl who came near him; which pleased them of course.
"What about Nissa, one minute you wanted her and now you don't care." Remus said.
"Technically we weren't even going out Remus." Sirius told him. "I never asked her, and we never said that we were."
"That isn't the point, because you were going out." Remus told him firmly.
"I'm 13 Remus, your making it out as though you want me to settle down and start a family or something." Sirius teased. "I don't think I'm the family guy, I'd rare just have some fun."
"That wasn't what I meant, it's just..." Remus tried to explain.
"Come on." Sirius said, as he pushed him into a pretty girl from Hufflepuff who started to dance with him and didn't seem to want to let him go; while Sirius went back to dancing with Bella.
Lily refused to dance with James all night, and danced with Liam as instead, who seemed very pleased with himself, but kept saying sorry to James who just wanted to cruse him but of course they weren't aloud to do magic outside of school.
Before the night was over Bella was going out with Sirius, which she had gotten him to say that they were going out. And Lily was going out with Liam, to James' his disappointment.
***
Bellatrix had found out somehow and had told Nissa, which Nissa didn't say anything. Bellatrix went round to the Black house to annoy Sirius, but she never said anything to his mother, but decided to take it upon herself. And dropped comments to him every time she saw him.
"I knew you weren't as nice as you make out that you are."
"And here I was thinking that you liked a girl which was a little fiery; this Ravenclaw is just so boring."
Sirius was getting really annoyed and was on the verge of snapping but managed to till the end of the summer holidays just.
