A few tables over from Lily and James…
"Black, that wasn't the right amount!"
"Well why don't you do it Figg?"
"I can't do all the work!"
"Oh look what we have here." A snotty voice from behind said. Both Arabella and Sirus turned.
"What do you want?" Sirus's eyes narrowed.
"Figg, I'm sorry you got stuck with my cousin here. He's a real prick isn't he?" Bellatrix said, ignoring Sirus's question.
"Cousin?" Arabella asked bewilderedly.
"Ex-cousin." Sirus growled.
"Happiest day of my life, when we burned you from the family tree." Bellatrix cackled.
"I'm sure." Sirus replied coolly. "Now if you don't mind, Figg and I have work to do." Bellatrix rolled her eyes and stalked off.
"You're related to HER?" Arabella questioned immediately after Bellatrix was gone.
"I don't wanna talk about it."
"But…okay."
"Is this the right amount?" Sirus asked gently. Arabella stared at him, Sirus Black related to Bellatrix? The idea was so weird. But they said something out not being related, and burning Sirus from the family tree? Why…? Arabella snapped back into reality.
"Uh, yeah it is." They worked in silence the rest of the class. When it ended, Sirus gathered his things and walked out the classroom without waiting for everyone. Lily, James, Remus, Peter, and Alice walked up to her.
"Where's Sirus?" Remus asked Arabella.
"He left."
"Why?"
"How should I know?" Arabella said quickly. She received five stares. "I'll be right back." She dashed after Sirus. She found him in a heated argument with Bellatrix.
"Just shut up!" Sirus growled.
"I'm gonna end up killing you one day, Black." Bellatrix snarled, her voice lethal. Sirus glared at her, he hated her. It was clear by the look on his face.
"You disgust me. I'm repulsed by the fact that I'm related to such an awful bitch." Bellatrix just cackled and walked away. Sirus kicked the wall with so much force Arabella thought he'd broken his foot. He let out a frustrated sigh and started limping away.
"Black wait!" But Sirus didn't turn around, "Sirus!" At the mention of his name from Arabella's lips he stopped dead in his tracks.
"What do you want?"
"Tell me what happened back there."
"Why do you care?"
"I'm curious."
"I'm Sirus."
"Are you okay?" Arabella asked, her voice hinting concern.
"Arabella Figg caring about me, Sirus Black's feelings? Color me shocked!" Sirus said with fake drama.
"I meant your foot." Arabella rolled her eyes, but gave a tiny smile nevertheless.
"Oh…its fine." Sirus said.
"Liar."
"Oh you would me so- ow!" Sirus exclaimed, putting too much pressure on his foot.
"Sirus, you need to go to the hospital wing."
"Finally! The first name!" Sirus shot his arms up in the air. Arabella rolled her eyes again.
"Fine then, you can walk yourself there." Arabelle stuck her tongue out at him. Sirus lurched his arm out and grabbed her hand.
"No! I'm injured. You wouldn't leave a needy, injured bloke like me to fend for himself would you?" Sirus begged.
"I suppose I could help you out if…you get on your knees and beg." Arabella said smugly.
"But I can't get on my knees if my foot is broken!"
"Oh alright fine I'll take your ass to the hospital wing happy?" Arabella said as she started walking. Sirus limped behind her, once he caught up he threw his arm around her. She raised an eyebrow at him.
"For support. I can't walk all the way to the hospital wing by myself!"
"You're a drama queen."
Once Sirus was checked in, Arabella took the pass that excused her from being late and went to Charms that she had with Lily and James. When she walked in the classroom, everyone stared at her.
"Why are you late Mrs. Figg?"
"Taking Bl- er Sirus to the hospital wing." She stammered, handing him the note.
"I see. Take your seat Mrs. Figg." Arabella nodded as she sat next to Amos Diggory, Lily and James beside her.
"Pst! What happened to Sirus?" James whispered.
"He…injured his foot."
"Oh Bella you didn't!" Lily gasped.
"No! I didn't I swear! He did all by himself." Arabella defended.
"How?"
"Er…you might wanna ask him that." They both gave her confused looks but didn't bug her about it since. She sighed with relief and turned to her partner Amos to begin the assignment. I wonder if Sirus is okay…I mean Black! I wonder if Black is okay. Yeah, that's what I meant.
