"Bella! Bella! Look at the book I found!" A 13 year old Narcissa cried cheerfully, running toward her elder sister with a book in hand, her frilly black dress bouncing around her.

"Cissy, slow down or you might hurt yourself" she smiled

"Looky!" She held the book out, dust flying in clouds around it from the movement, the title was illegible

She rubbed the sleeve of her shirt against the title "Can you read it?" she encouraged her little sister to read

"The titles busted up, but it's all about Curses and the Dark Arts" She grinned proudly.

"Well done. Now why were you so exited?" she pattered Narcissa's back softly

"Cause I found it- and it's cool." She grinned

"Okay Cissy, calm down" Bellatrix could not believe that a book got her so exited

"Like- The Crutiartus curse! That ones so cool..!" She giggled

"You know you can't do the three unforgivable curses"

"I know- but it's in the book. I think it's my favourite"

"Well don't put it into the library, you will never find it again" she joked

"I'm keeping it forever!" She grinned, doing a little twirl

"Well off you go then, go sit in the gazebo and read you new book" she was amazed that Narcissa could be so easily amused

"Nhee.." She took the book, doing another twirl and running off, this time shouting for her other sister

Going to the library her self Bellatrix selected a book for her to read with the intention of going to sit with her younger sister and read

After bragging to Andromeda she sat, moving her wand around, mouthing the curses.

Walking outside Bellatrix spotted Cissy waving her wand around "You know if you accidently use that you could get in serious trouble" she tutted

"I know Bella. I'm careful." She grinned, but put the wand down

"Well you can never be too careful"

She nodded, looking curiously at her sister

"Is there something on my face?" she joked

"Yeah." She replied "The rats nest you call hair." She giggled playfully

"Sod off" she pushed her sister lightly

"Make me." She laughed

"Oh I can" she raised her wand intending to 'Rictusempra' her

"No!" She laughed, pushing her sister

"Oh but I can, I no longer am being traced by the Ministry, I can use magic outside school now" she taunted

"Nuh!" She laughed protestant.

"Yep, It was my birthday last week remember?"

"Sooo?"

"I am 17 now so I am allowed to use magic outside school now" she poked out her tongue

"Show off!" she laughed

"When you are 17, I bet you will be the same" she smiled forgetting about the game they were playing

"Uhuh.." She frowned slightly, deep in thought

Tickling her sister "What has got you pretty face in wrinkles?" she asked

She giggled, scooting away "Nooo!" She squealed between giggles

"Tell me," she held on tight,

"I was thinking about Dromeda."

"Is there something wrong with her?"

"I was just thinking about that boy she's seeing.."

"Who is it this time?"

"Tonks something.. Ted? I don't know.." She shrugged "I couldn't remember If he was a pureblood or not. "

"I wonder if father knows? I bet he isn't. She likes to play on the wild side"

She shook her head slightly "But why Mudblood?" She made a disgusted face

"She likes to I guess. Don't know why anyone would though" she said laughing at Cissy's face

She grinned, crossing her eyes and making a face at Bella

Laughing, Bella tickled her again "Keep reading you bookworm" she smiled
