Well, I deeply regret to inform you all that I do not, never did and probably never will own any of the Harry Potter characters. That is why the best of them keep dying lately: Were they my own, I would never have got rid of such a brilliant character as Sirius, and I would have developed a little more the characters past (I must saythe only character I don't give a damn about is this moron Harry, but why is HE the hero on the first place? He's such a dummy!)

Anyway, I hope you liked the first chapter! That was mostly romantic, I agree, and a little silly, but I admit I never held the young Lily Evans in very high esteem (too much of a good girl to me)(a slaughtering little temptress like Bellatrix is more what I like)(I must admit that, ever since she killed Sirius (a character that I love more than many could imagine) and even more since I read HBP Bellatrix IS my favourite character)

Well anyway, I know some only read my fanfic because there was Bellatrix is in it, so be merry, dears, here she is:

Chapter2: Shattered

"Come on, Sirius, what is it you wanted to tell me ? You're starting a rock band or planning to blow up Gringott's?"

"Ah, I haven't thought of it yet, but I really should. You'd make a great solo singer, Leela. But I wouldn't make it quite a secret, would I? Here come the Blacks! I see a red door and stuff…"

They laughed. Seating face to face in an empty class room on the fifth floor, a tiny window getting them just enough light to see each other, it all seemed good.

"Now" she said smilingly, when she had recovered "tell me, what's your big plan for next year?"

" Just you guess!"

"Don't tell me it's about Severus again?

"Nah! That's old fashioned now, nothing could be as funny as it once was. Old times gone! I'm on a bigger scale now…"

"Mass levicorpus and stripping?"

"That's an idea, I'll store it, just in case, for next year. James will like it."

"Humf… Come on! Give me a hint!"

"It has been planned with James…"

"That's not a hint!"

"… for a very long time and will come into action as soon as we reach Kings Cross."

"Oho… So mister Black has been hiding something from his beloved cousin, is that it? You feeling remorseful?"

"Um, terribly, I guess." He said, looking utterly unremorseful "OK, I'll tell you. I'm… sort of… taking holidays at James's place."

"You'll never change, will you? Grimmauld place is going to be an awful bore without you. You know I can't stand that simpering house elf of yours, Kreacher. Come on, tell me what you'll do, so that I can hate you a lot before missing you."

"You can choose not to miss me or hate me, you know…"

"How about that? It would be terrible for me not to hate you" she said with a smile "It would mean I would go through all the summer alone with loneliness and you brother."

"Not very good company, is he?"

"Well, the brat still thinks of himself as attractive… Not that he has a chance of ever getting at anything with me." She added with a smile to Sirius "But you know all of that, don't you, now? Now, tell me, what is that thing about not being lonely?"

"Well, you could come along, couldn't you?"

"Come along, hum…" she chuckled "come on, you can't be serious?"

"Surely I am!"

"Now, you know what, Sirius, you've never been able to hide anything from me. I can tell there's something more. What is it you aren't telling me? What are you going to do this summer?"

Her voice was serious now. He knew she wanted to know the whole truth now. Well, James had been OK about it, hadn't he? He told her. She didn't react as he expected her to. Quite the other way round, actually. All shouting and panic. He sort of did so too.

"But… But you can't be serious, you cannot do this!"

"Of course I can! Nothing's impossible when you wish hard enough, wasn't you who told me that?"

"It never was supposed to be about that. I never wanted you to…"

"But now it's about me! It don't want myself to go on living like that, with those people who call themselves my family! You know I'm write, I never fitted their world, I never was like them, they've never been a family to me!"

"But… Am I not your family?

"Is Meeda still your family?"

"Why, yes, but…"

"She is still MY family, she surely is!"

"Yes… you're right but…"

"But what!"

There was a short pause. Both teenagers had leaped to their feet.

"But… but… please Sirius, don't you go away from your home… from me… from everyone who loves you…"

"Love me?" he sneered bitterly "Love me? Do they only know the meaning of that word? They'll be so much happier when they only have to deal with my dear little bro'!"

"But I do love you, Sirius, do you think I do not know what it means? You know I'd do anything, anything in the world…"

"Come with me then! We could have a place of our own, with enough romm for the both of us. And then we can go to Meeda's! She's pregnant, she'd want us to see her child, to know her family, she misses you, Leela!"

"But if I go… there's no coming back… ever…"

"Coming back? And where? To Grimmauld place, to see day after day those goddam beheaded house elves hanging on the wall? That dodgy house, that lousy lane? Not talking about my friends just because they don't come from dusty ancient pure-blood families? And being told day and night of that rubbish of pure-bloodness, and marrying pure blood, and mixing with pure bloods, and getting rid of all muggles and muggle born… Bloody hell of it!"

Bellatrix's cheecks were turning steadily purple. Then she exploded.

"Sirius… you… you're behaving like… like… like some teenager storming his crisis!"

"Well maybe I am!"

"Well I am not! I still have some sense! I cannot leave! And neither can you! I can't and I love them, and I love you, they love both of us the same…"

"…Big deal!"

"…And evenif it were possible, what would we… what could we do? No family… No home… No past… No future!"

"So you think there's nothing to be done without the family? No future without them? And do you only know what kind of future you would have within the family? I can see it right from now: I can see you in a couple of years, with a couple of brats snivelling all over the place and you, sharing your bed with Malfoy, or Nott or Avery or Goyle or some Old, wrinkled, rotten Macnair…"

"You…"

She slapped him squarely in the face, ran away and slammed the door. The bang of it echoed in the almost empty classroom. Sirius's face was very white, and he was breathing hard. He waited motionless for two whole minutes, thoughts and emotions rushing through him so fast and so thick he couldn't tell one from the other. He noticed, flabbergasted, that he was shaking from head to foot. He shook his head his dog-like manner and went out in a heavy pace. In a corner, unnoticed, a dusty old cupboard was bleeding black ink. The two large crystal ink bottles inside had shattered.

So did you like this? I invented this scene with my sister, so I'm expecting a lot from it. Hope you liked it! Please, read and review, post your ideas if you like, it might help a lot, because I don't know exactly how to make Rem and Leela fall for each other now.

I love you all, thanks a lot for reading!
