AN* thanks for all the support, I rediscovered this story and have been working on some fresh ideas for additions. I'm hoping to start some set at Hogwarts soon. Please remember to review!
August 1967
(Bella 16, Andy 15, Cissy 12)
Druella and Cygnus sat together on the loveseat in the living room facing their three daughters who stood in front of the bay window which looked out onto the dead lawn.
"What is this about exactly?" Cygnus demanded, leaning forward on the couch.
"Daddy, this is about a very serious and important issue." Narcissa began folding her hands together.
"What exactly is this issue?" Druella inquired, leaning forwards beside her husband.
"We have a proposal to make-" Andromeda continued stepping forward.
"We need our own rooms!" Bellatrix exclaimed. Both Cygnus and Druella leaned back and crossed their arms.
"Do you now." Cygnus inquired raising a brow.
"Yes daddy, we do. I'm sixteen years old now, I'm practically a woman. No proper woman shares a dresser with a twelve year old." Bellatrix complained.
"Oh quit acting like you're the one disadvantaged here!" Andromeda butt in, looking rather cross. "You are a pig! There is food, and cloths and just stuff everywhere!"
"Oh, and what about all your books taking up all the shelf space!" Narcissa criticized. "All my decorative, porcelain dolls, are sitting in a cardboard box in the bottom of a closet, because they have nowhere else to go."
"No, you're porcelain dolls are in the closet because they are creepy as fuck!" Bellatrix corrected, earning a disapproving grumble from her father as her mother spluttered, 'language Bella.'
"Stop swearing Bella, there not going to take us seriously if you do." Andromeda hissed through clenched teeth.
"Because you're little outburst about my personal habits made us all sound really mature." Bellatrix whispered back, straightening her posture before turning back to her parents.
"Mother, I spend all semester in a dorm full of girls just to go home to a room of them. I need privacy."
"We all need privacy." Andromeda confirmed.
"And the rooms far too small, we hardly fit. And then there's all our stuff." Narcissa chimed in.
"I believe you three may have a point." Druella agreed; the three sisters cheering and hugging.
"However," The girls drooped immediately. "I can't see how exactly were going to pull two more bedrooms out of thin air." Cygnus stated simply getting up from the couch to pour himself some scotch.
"What about the office?" Andromeda beamed, breaking the silence. "You never use your office, nobody uses the office. Daddy, you can move your books to the office at work and get rid of what we don't need and then we have another bedroom." Andromeda suggested excitedly.
"That's only one room." Narcissa nagged. "That means two of us are still going to have to share."
The three sisters stopped for a moment and glanced at each other, Druella messaged her temples preparing for the arguing that was about to outbreak, Cygnus poured himself more scotch.
"Being the oldest and most mature I am in the most need of my own room." Bellatrix stated forcefully.
"The age gap between me and Bella, and Andy is far too large to share a room." Narcissa countered.
"I will most effectively utilize having my own space and privacy." Andromeda affirmed.
"I need my own room to advance as a woman." Bellatrix nearly screamed.
"You mean so you can sleep with boys." Andromeda yelled. Cygnus choked on his scotch.
"No!" Bellatrix shouted shocked.
"You are sleeping with girls?" Narcissa teased giggling.
"It's obvious Bella is far too irresponsible to have her own room." Andromeda disputed.
"I think me and your father will talk about this later." Druella decided.
"BUT!" The three shrieked in unison.
"Later!" Druella snapped, giving her daughters a warning glance before marching off to the kitchen for a well-deserved cup of tea
