Prompt: 22. "Why is the rum gone?" - Pirates of the Caribbean


When they met on that icy cold Saturday night, he knew he would marry her one day. It was at a party her parents were hosting at Black Manor.

Her sisters were greeting guests and mingling, but Bellatrix didn't arrive until an hour after the party started.

The first thing he heard her say was "Why is the rum gone?".

No apology or explanation for being late. She didn't care about anyone there he could see it in her eyes while mother berated her for being late, and kicking up a fuss about the rum being gone. He knew as she rolled her eyes, sighed, and stamped her feet that this was the person he wanted to marry. Someone who didn't care about causing a scene.
