Sirius walked into his gloomy home wearing a smile. His bother was
complaining and his parents were discussing how well the party went despite
Nicolette's outburst and he didn't care for once. He went straight up to
his room and slept.
Unfortunately but the next morning the depressing stupor had returned and his parents were really getting under his skin.
"Now Sirius, you must call upon Nicolette as much as possible." His mother went on. "A prestigious pure-blood family is just the thing to help you realize what you are"
Sirius got up and left the kitchen. One more word and he thought he'd scream. The house-Elf Kreacher was cleaning the floors in the hall.
"Oh, older Master should not walk out on Mistress. He was doing good but now slides to disappoint on poor Mistress. Hangs around with Mudbloods"
"Quiet you! Spread your filth in another room!"
"Oh, older Master is so disappointing. So disappointing."
"Quiet Kreacher or I'll put you by your mother sooner than expected!"
"Sirius" his father scolded coming in the hall. "Leave Kreacher be."
Sirius gave a sneer reminiscent of his mother and went to his room and began packing his things. The house-Elf gained more respect than him. However, Regulus came in.
"What are you doing?" he asked been nosy
"None of your damn business" Sirius snarled
"You're running away, aren't you?"
"I said it was none of your business you little twit!"
"I'm telling"
Regulus ran for the door but Sirius stopped him and covered his mouth before he could scream. Sirius then taped Regulus' mouth shut and tied him up against the bedpost.
"Don't worry. They'll find you.... eventually" he added maliciously
Sirius climbed out his window and into the back alley. He made his way to the street and pulled out his wand. He signaled the Knight Bus, which came roaring in front of him. The door opened and he stepped on.
"Wos' 'urname?" the driver asked
"Don't worry about it. I need to go to the home of James Potter...how much?"
"11 Sickles"
"Here's 20. Give me a secluded spot and a drink if you don't mind"
Sirius went up a spiral stair and to the farthest corner bed. He fell asleep since he was used to the Knight Bus having rode it before. While Sirius slept on the bus waiting for his turn, his dear mother was making her way upstairs to fetch her sons. She nearly screamed seeing her youngest tied up in Sirius' room. She released him using her wand.
"What happened?"
"He ran away. He's gone"
Fire burned in Mrs. Black's eyes. She pulled her wand out and stormed downstairs. She went to the old tapestry and pointed her wand at Sirius's name. With one word she burned it name off of it.
Sirius showed up at James' house late that night. All the lights were off in the house but Sirius knew where James' window was and climbed in. James knew Sirius was thinking about running away so he always left it open.
"Prongs" he whispered
James snored on so Sirius simply rolled him of the bed.
"What the—Sirius?"
"Yeah"
"Finally did it then?" James asked later as they drank hot chocolate in the kitchen.
"Its just status and blood to them mate, they were bringing people I care about into it"
"Like who?"
"They were bad mouthing you and the others and telling me I should associate myself with the Malfoys"
"Lucky they don't know Remus is a werewolf huh?"
"I'd never hear the end of it"
"Would another person be a pretty girl you fancy?" James asked smirking
"Yeah, I went to that party her father threw. My mum went crazy went she saw us together and wont leave me alone. Went on and on about calling on her."
"Bugger. Does she know you're gone?"
"No, I was gonna go there first but I didn't know if her father was gone yet" Sirius said, "Can I lay low here for awhile?"
"Sure. You know my parents don't care"
"James, are you down there?" his mother called sweetly
"Yeah mum"
She came down and smiled at Sirius in a motherly way
"Hello Sirius dear. Will you be staying?"
"If there's no objection from you"
"Not at all. I'll write your mother tomorrow. But it's late. Get to bed. Both of you"
"Thanks mum"
"Thank Mrs. Potter"
