Andromeda sat at the dinner table with her family, and they all ate their meals, without a single word being said. Bellatrix had both elbows on the table and was stabbing her food with her fork, Narcissa was making sure her food was cut perfectly and that her bites were dainty and well portioned. Then there was Andromeda. The girl sitting awkwardly trying not to get looked at.
Druella looked at the three girls and she said, "What are your summer plans?"
Bellatrix threw her fork down on her plate and said with a mouth full of food, "I'm going to go on a date with Roddy and he might just ask me to marry him." When she spoke, a bit of food hit Narrcissa in the face.
"Bella!" the blonde shrieked, before kicking her sister under the table. Bellatrix merely laughed. "I'm going to attempt to teach Bella some manors, and hopefully I will also teach her how to comb her hair." The oldest sister's only response was to stick her tongue out and make a disgusted noise.
The three females and Cygnus all looked at Andromeda, and she mumbled, "I'm going to spend time with Ted Tonks."
"Ted Tonks?" Cygnus asked, thinking carefully. "I haven't heard a name like Tonks before," he said, implying that he probably wasn't pureblood.
Awkwardly, Andromeda said, "It's because he's Scottish." Druella and Cygnus nodded.
Narcissa and Bellatrix luckily didn't spend any time with Ted at school, otherwise they could have told her parents. They probably would've killed Andromeda.
"How sweet, now my three daughters have boyfriends," Druella said, and Andromeda looked at her awkwardly. She stated he was just a friend, but her mothers response was only, "Sure, dear."
Bellatrix was in a mood to tease Andromeda today, so she asked, "What's Ted's middle name?"
"Ian."
Cackling, Bellatrix said, "HIS INITIALS ARE TIT!"
Narcissa and Cygnus both laughed, but tried to hide that they were. Druella gasped and said, "Bellatrix, that is no language for the table."
"ANDROMEDA IS GOING ON A DATE WITH TIT!"
"It's not a date," Andromeda said, glaring at her older sister.
"So you admit you are still hanging out with Tit?" Bellatrix questioned, and Druella glared at her daughter.
Andromeda crossed her arms and said, "You mean Ted."
A smile swept across Bellatrix's face and she said, "Nope. Tit."
The next day Andromeda opened the door to the house, and Ted stood there with a smile, the same smile he had for years.
Belltrix twirled by in the hallway and said, "Have fun with Tit."
