First Week Back
Sirius stayed at James' again and came to the station with him and his family, but the Black's were still at the station though not for him.
Nissa went to the station with Severus as normal, and they meet up with his friends who she had spent the summer with. And by now she was quit different nearly no one recognised her; her hair was a little long but it was black and tied back with two red strips framing her face, which she had silver grey eye-shadow and nail polish on, she was wearing a shirt with flared cuff's and a short dress over the top.
She seemed to be drawing a lot of attention towards to herself, though she didn't care, but Severus made sure that they all saw that she was with him.
Sirius almost died when he saw Nissa and Bellatrix together, and what Nissa was dressed like.
"What the hell is she doing with her?" Sirius demanded outraged, he dropped his truck and stormed over to them closely followed by James and Remus.
"Oh it's you." Severus said coldly when they stopped in front of them.
"Have you lost your mind?" Sirius shot at her.
Nissa just looked at him, as though with no emotion at all, he wondered if she was pissed with him; that he was going out with Bella now and not her. Though he had come up with a very good argument but couldn't seem to remember any of it right at the moment.
Severus smiled cruelly at him and then picked up her truck with Lestrange and carried it on board into their compartment. Bellatrix stayed by her side glaring at him, the silence was broken by Lily and Bella.
"Had a nice summer?" Lily asked Nissa, and then suddenly took in how she was dressed.
"Not to bad." Nissa answered and then turned to Bella. "I'm glad that you liked the dress, I told you that it was just right."
"Yeah thanks." Bella said smiling and then clasped Sirius' arm and kissed him on the check. A couple of girls passing by started to giggle.
Though Nissa was completely unmoved by what she had done, so Sirius grabbed hold of Bella and kissed her passionately, making a lot of people stop and stare and cheer him on.
Regulus came over and saw what his brother was doing and tried it on with Nissa, but she moved out of his way before he even reached her.
"I'll see you later then." Nissa told them as she went on the train with Bellatrix.
Sirius had stopped kissing her and still had hold of her, though a little tighter then he had meant too.
"We should get our things on the train." Lily told her. "You can let go of her now Sirius."
"When does the train leave, so that we can as well?" Petunia asked from behind Lily.
"At eleven o'clock." James answered her, and then looked at his watch. "In ten minutes."
Petunia didn't even look at him, every one could see that she didn't want to be there and was dieing to get away; she went back over to her parents and stood as close as she could to them away from everyone else as though she might catch something from them.
"Sorry about her." Lily said somewhat embarrassed.
"Don't worry about it." James reassured her kindle.
They all said goodbye to their families and then got on board, sitting a little differently this year.
"I can't believe that you kissed Bella like that, and right in front of Nissa of all people." James said.
"You shouldn't have done that." Remus told him.
"What does it matter anyway, she didn't care, so what's the big deal." Sirius said.
"Your right mate." James agreed. "But by the looks of it, you could have had sex right in front of her and she wouldn't have even beaten an eyelid."
Peter was giggling away, he had started as soon as James had 'sex', and the other three just ignored him.
"I think we would have minded though." Remus said smiling.
"Bellatrix knew she had been winding me up all summer about it." Sirius told them.
"Who's she?" Peter asked.
"My cousin; the girl who was stood next too Nissa." Sirius told him getting annoyed. "And did you see how she was dressed?"
"I think everyone saw how she was dressed." James said smiling, but stopped when Sirius glared at him.
"She doesn't have anyone else." Remus said slowly. "Does she?"
"I tried, she wouldn't write back to me." Sirius told them, well more to Remus then to the others.
"She was embarrassed about what happened." Remus told him.
"Have you been writing to her? Did she answer you? Why would she answer you and not me?" Sirius demanded.
Remus looked at him for a moment before he answered, he knew his friend was getting anger and didn't mean a lot of what he was saying, so decided to ignore most of what he had just said.
"No I didn't write to her, so I wouldn't know if she would have written back or not." Remus told him calmly.
"She probably would have, you always know just what to say, you would had made her happy." Sirius said down hearted, making Remus blush somewhat.
***
Sirius was getting even more annoyed when he saw Nissa get into the carriage with Snape and Bellatrix and not her own friends from Gryffindor.
She left them at the doors to the Great Hall and walked up and sat down next to Lily and Remus.
"I'm surprised that you're not sitting at the Slytherin table, with your new friends." Sirius shot at her from the other side of Remus as she sat down.
Nissa led forward so that she could see him. "Aren't I welcome at the Gryffindor table?"
"Of course you are, just ignore him." Lily told her.
"Ignore me." Sirius said.
"Sirius I think you need to calm down a little." Remus told him. "You always seem to do this, insult her when you want her, it isn't going to work."
Sirius couldn't say anything because just then the new first years had come in and he was trying not to look at them, and found instead that he was looking at the back of Nissa.
The second boy to be sorted caused quit a stir. "Black, Regulus."
Sirius tried to hind though of course there was no where he could go part from running out of the hall itself which of course he wasn't going to do. Everyone turned to look at him, well nearly everyone, those who knew he had a brother didn't.
"Slytherin." The hat shouted out.
The Slytherin table cheered for him, as the rest of the hall broke out into whisper's, wanting to know who he was and if he was related to Sirius.
Everyone was glad that the sorting was over, not just so that they could eat but so that they could question Sirius.
"So who is he?" Matt asked.
"Are you related?" Ryley asked, making everyone look at him as though he had just asked a stupid question. (Which he had of course.)
"So why is he in Slytherin and not in Gryffindor like you?" Benito asked sat next to Ryley.
"He's my brother." Sirius told them finally. "And family don't always end up in the same houses."
"I wish he would leave me alone." Nissa said, as she got some chicken breast.
"You know him?" Lily and Ella asked her.
"Yeah, I meet him at the Ball at Christmas." Nissa answered.
"You never said anything." Ella said disappointed that she wasn't told this information.
"It wasn't my place." Nissa said.
"No it wasn't." Sirius shot at her. "But you seem to think leading on every member of my family is."
"I don't know what you mean." Nissa admitted looking along to the table at him.
"My cousin, my brother... me." Sirius said. "What are you up too?"
Sirius had completely lost it, he didn't really mean what he was saying he just couldn't help it he was so anger, he knew that this would happen but he was still taken a little off guard; because of her she always did that.
"She can't be up to something, and anyway she wouldn't have been put in Gryffindor if she had." James told him. "I think you need to relax mate."
***
They were all coming down into the entrance hall to go into breakfast, Nissa was walking with Lily and Ella, when Regulus came out of no where and embraced Nissa. She pushed him off and fell into Sirius and Remus behind her.
"Can't you take a hint?" Sirius shot at him.
"She'll warm up to me, just wait." Regulus reassured him.
Sirius stepped around Nissa and was only inches away from his brother, he knocked on his head. "Is anyone awake in there, she... doesn't... like... you."
Regulus made to punch him but Sirius grabbed hold of his hand and punched him with his other, sending him falling to the ground.
"Sirius Black!" Jevidah said loudly walking up the steps towards them. "Detention, Gryffindor would normally lose points as well, but they haven't got any yet. But next time you'll get more then just a detention for hitting a fellow student, and your brother at that."
Rabastan Lestrange helped Regulus to his feet, Sirius pushed past them all into the hall and made his way up to his seat; his friends slowly followed
"Are you alright?" James asked sitting down facing him.
Bella came over after hearing something had happened.
"What happened, are you alright?" Bella asked.
"I'm fine!" Sirius shouted at her, taking everyone by surprise.
She just looked at him and quickly walked off before she started to cry, Lily glared at him and then quickly followed after her.
"Damn it why do I keep doing that?" Sirius said, he hadn't meant to shout at her and now wished that he hadn't.
"I know that the two of you don't get along, but you shouldn't take up fighting in the corridors with him." James told him calmly, so that he hopefully didn't start shouting at him.
"Nissa didn't come in, she went off with Snape." Remus told him quietly.
"What are they going out now or something?" Sirius said irritated.
"Keep pushing her away like you are doing and she might." James said.
***
"I can't believe that I've got detention on my first day back." Sirius said as he climbed up to Divinations.
"You've only got yourself to balm." Remus told him.
"Thanks a lot Remus." Sirius said as he sat down next to James on a puffy.
"Why did I wear a skirt today?" Natalie asked as she climbed up last.
"You wanted to show off your tan." Nissa told her.
Professor Halar entered the room making a couple of them jump, she was very tall and had long dirty blond hair and layers of robes of different colours.
"Good morning class, I am Professor Halar." She told them all, and then took the next fifteen minutes explain about her class which more then half of them didn't catch they had stopped listening after the first five.
After she had finished talking she walked in among the student's stopping at some and saying something to them.
"You need to control you temper, or you my lose someone close to you." She told Sirius.
Which he didn't really play much attention to, because he had kicked a puffy out of his way when he entered the class which she could have seen; and the part about losing someone close, he didn't really have anyone he could call close part from his best mates.
She stared at Lily for a while and then said to Matt who was sat behind her. "Your aura isn't very strong, which means that you are going to die young."
At this everyone started to whisper, wondering if it was true and thinking the lesson: - stupid, scary or interesting.
When she turned back to Lily's table, she looked at Nissa for a while as though she couldn't see her properly.
"You shouldn't be here." She told her finally.
"She could have told me that she didn't want me in her lesson." Sirius said making James, Remus and Peter laugh.
"That isn't what I meant Mr Black." She told him not taking her eyes off Nissa. "You are not meant to be, not yet anyway."
Nissa though didn't look at all bored by this statement, as though she didn't care or that she wasn't surprised by it.
"Doesn't she feel anything?" Sirius said irritated that she hadn't reacted in anyway.
'Of course I feel.' Nissa told him, but her lips never moved, Sirius almost fell of his puffy.
They all had a lot to talk about over dinner about their first day back, Sirius was winding Nissa up about what Professor Halar had said to her, trying to find out if she knew what it meant; but she said nothing.
It carried on even in Herbology after dinner, though she did get him to shut up. The plant pot he was working on exploded in his face, everyone burst out laughing while Professor Spout shouted at him but didn't take any points or give him detention.
"She did that." Sirius hissed at them.
"Maybe you shouldn't carry on then." Remus suggested.
"Of course I am, if I can get through that armour of hers." Sirius said. "I bet she's alright deep down."
"And you think you're the one who's going to do that." James said smiling. "Aren't you going out with Bella?"
Sirius didn't answer him; he knew he had a small point. After the lesson, Davis and Liam walked with them leaving the girls behind to talk about what ever they talk about.
"No one still hasn't got close to that Whopping Willow yet, I bet that you couldn't." Simon dared them as he looked out over the grounds towards it.
"Maybe after dinner." Sirius said stretching his arms.
They decided to go back after dinner. Remus wasn't really up to it and wasn't really bored that he had been dared well Sirius and James was more then the other's. Peter stayed as far away from it as he could, making sure that there was always someone else in front of him and the tree.
Liam though he was even that close, but he didn't move quickly enough and was hit hard in the side sending him flying. They all helped him up to the hospital wing because he had broken his wrist. Lily found James afterward and had been told what happened and blamed him for the whole thing saying that it was his way of getting back at Liam because she was going out with him.
Next Morning in Potion's Nissa set up in front of Sirius, James, Remus and peter as normal with Severus, which always annoyed them.
She had her hair braided black and red, and was wearing underneath her school robes green and silver trousers.
"Does she have to wear Slytherin clothes?" Sirius asked through gritted teeth.
"I think she's trying to get to you." James teased him.
"And its working." Remus added.
They didn't much like their first Potion's lesson back, because Jevidah made them do a complicated potion. To make it even worst Sirius' didn't look quit right compared to Remus' next to him, and Nissa's and Snape's who's looked perfect. Well it wasn't as bad as Peter's his looked like, well they weren't really sure what his looked like, just something that none of them wanted to go near.
James waited until Snape had filled his vial a cleared his caldron until he set fire to the bottom of his robes making him drop his potion. Nissa glared at him as she stepped forward into the fire, which disappeared within her and then she clear up the mess; and remade the vial and contents.
"How?" Sirius asked.
"Mr Potter, Mr Black, detention." Jevidah announced.
"Trying for a new school record?" Remus asked him. "It's only the second day back, and you've already got another detention."
"Its discriminations." Sirius said with James laughing beside him.
"I know he's so unfair, he never gives them lot detention." Natalie said stood next to Lily while clearing away.
"If you do something wrong, then you should be punched for it." Nissa told them as she was walking past with Severus and his friends.
Sirius stopped her and made her look him straight in the face.
"Sometimes people punch you when you've done nothing wrong." Sirius told her. "Is that right?"
Nissa looked at him for a moment, she knew that he knew what had happened at Christmas, but she still didn't say anything to him; only turned and left with Severus.
Sirius stayed at James' again and came to the station with him and his family, but the Black's were still at the station though not for him.
Nissa went to the station with Severus as normal, and they meet up with his friends who she had spent the summer with.
