Short drabble about Rod and Bella.
"Rodulphus," she snapped, walking quickly with her husband towards Malfoy Manor, "behave. I swear to God, if you pull a stunt like that, you will die."
"What stunt?" he asked. Rodulphus rolled his eyes and continued to walk with his fuming wife.
"Rodulphus!" she hissed.
"Bellatrix, I'm sorry. I was just making a point."
"What point?" she stopped walking and threw her hands up in the air. "That I'm just a self absorbed whore?"
"No, just that you love the Dark Lord more than your husband!" he yelled among the trees that led to the Manor.
"Rodolphus! Stop it right now!"
"What? Stop what?" he sneered. "Stop telling the truth?"
"What am I supposed to say? 'Oh Rodolphus, I cherish you and I give you my undying love.' Is that correct. Because I'll say it."
"It won't even matter. It'll just be one of your sadistic lies."
"What lies?"
" 'Dear Rodolphus, I will love you with all my heart, in rich and poverty, in--' "
"Mere words do not prove anything." she scoffed.
"Words? Oh so, love is just a mere word?"
"Of course. One has no use for love when they have power."
"Love, Bellatrix, is something only two people can share. Can't you understand that? The Dark Lord will never love you."
"Don't you dare say that." she hissed. "Crucio!" Rodolphus squirmed on the floor, screams escaping his mouth. "This is what you deserve Rod. This is what you damn right deserve." she laughed. She lifted the spell. "Oh, is Rodolphus mad?"
"Bellatrix!" he roared. He lifted her up and clenched her shoulders hard enough to make her cry out in pain. He laughed. "What did I deserve? What did I ever do to you? I loved you, I stood by you when--"
"When? Bastard, when?" she half sobbed, half yelled.
"When they died."
"When who died?"
"Violet and Regulus!" he screamed through tears.
"When my babies died!" she sobbed. She fell to her knees and started to cry. Rodolphus stared at his wife; she never was like this. He knelt down and wrapped his arms around her as she cried.
"I'm sorry Bella." I really am.
"I know." she said through sobs. "I know."
"Love you, mi Bella."
"I know." she whispered. "I know."
Ok, long author's note here. Sorta. If I keep rambling, it will.... ANYWAY... I just decided that Rodolphus and Bellatrix must've loved each other at one point. I like the idea of Bellatrix and miscariages and stillborns, no matter how cruel that is. I just like seeing her weak yet strong (makes sense, no? Not really...) and I love Rod/Bella. So there's my amazingly short A/n! lol Reviews are greatly appreciated!
