"What happened?" Cissy asks as I walk out of the study at Malfoy Manor.

"It's over." I say. The Dark Lord will never love me anyways so what is the point in even trying anymore.

"What?" she asks. I can tell she's confused. She has the look that tells me something has gone over her head, but that happens often with Cissy. I really don't know how Lucius deals with it.

"I saw the Dark Lord and what's her name, Alecto, together." She gasps a little too loud. I almost think she's being sarcast

"Together as in together?" She asks curious. I let out a sigh.

"Worse." I say. What they were doing was just completely terrible.

"What could be worse?" she asks. Oh god she probably thinks they were kissing or something. If it's one thing I've learned as Narcissa has grown older it's that she has a dirty mind and jumps to conclusions.

"They were playing checkers together." Cissy's let's out a squel and I give her a dirty look.

"So you're jealous?" she asks teasing me.

"I'm not jealous!" I shout, and she immediately recoils. I turn to a vase that exploded when I spoke. She walks into the kitchen, and I follow her to explain myself.

"My powers are slightly out of control." I say leaning on the counter. She stares at me wide-eyed.

"Out of control?" she asks wondering what I mean.

"I've been blowing things up all day". Cissy let's out a whooping laugh and snorts she's laughing so hard.

"Narcissa!" I yell. I'm losing my patience with her I should have never told her in the first place.

She coughs and looks at me. "Well you have to admit it is pretty funny your little crush on the Dark Lord." Suddenly I hear a noise on the other side of the door.

"Shut up Cissy!" I yell, and she nearly drops the bowl she is holding. I walk over to the door, and open it letting Lucius tumble in.

"YOU have a crush on the Dark Lord." Lucius shouts and Cissy let's out another insane giggle, and I feel my face turn red. Partly from rage, and partly from embarrassment. I turn to Lucius wanting to kill him.

"Don't evesdrop you idiot!" I shout drawing my wand. He turns and runs and I follow.

"Be careful you may not want to fall in front of your master." Cissy yells from the kitchen. I stop knowing I'm defeated, but not for long I'll find a way to get back to them. Yes I definitely will.
