The Andromeda Files
Chapter 2: Confessions
This was not happeneing, no siree. I mean, what does a girl have to do to keep sane in a house like this? W just stood there, just…there, watching my sister and his brother having…relations, to put it simply. And the best part? They didn't even notice! They were so wrapped up that it was impossible to tell whose hands were whose! (Sigh), This is what you get for being a black and believe you me, its not nice. Not nice at all. Regulus just stood there, mouth hanging and eyed glazed. I took that to mean that he had never walking in on his brother. He should take a leaf out of my book. Deciding that enough is enough, I went over to the bed and cleared my throat loudly. They still didn't notice and Sirius' hand had disappeared to…Ok that's it! " Okay people wrap it up! Shows over!"
Bella shrieked and fell off the bed. " Andi! Did you have to do that?" she said, getting up and wrapping her body with the sheets. Sirius grinned broadly and winked at me. Even though he was in Gryffindor, he still had that black arrogance of believing that he could get any girl into bed. He'd been trying it on me for what? Ages? But I do not give in easily, especially where family is concerned. " What's the time" Bella asked, summoning her evening robes to her side.
" Time for you two to put in an appearance at your own party." I replied sitting on my bed. Regulus turned towards the door, walked out of Sirius' room swiftly and locked hi9mself in his room.
" Do you realize the extent of the damage you have caused?" I asked laughing, " you have just corrupted his innocent mind!" Sirius smiled and lay on the bed " so how comes you're here Andi, wanna join?" He caressed my thigh, but, seeing that I am the more intelligent being, I slapped his hand away " Get dressed Casanova" I stood up and went to the door " you are being waited upon". I closed the door and went into the room that I share with Narcissa and Bella, buried my head on the pillow and unexpectedly fell asleep.

The yells of my aunt awoke me the next morning. It took me two hours. 2 hours to get up, shower, change and dress. The look on Narcissa's face, as I sat down for breakfast, was smug. I guess that Bella wasn't the only one to have gotten her leg over last night! HA! The house has been cleaned up from last night's events and only immediate family remained. That is to say Mother, Father, uncle, aunt, my two sisters and two cousins. As per usual, I was the odd one out. Breakfast was a very quiet affair. From what I had heard from Bella, The duck, I mean duke ( I seriously need to improve my spelling!) of somewhere far away, had asked fofr narcissi's hand, only to be refused by my dad. He didn't take it too kindly.
" I have an announcement to make" My father. Cygnes Black declared. We all stopped and looked at him. " I have some news to share"
" Firstly, Narcissa has agreed to wed young Lucius Malfoy once she is of age"
" Congrats!" I said genuinely. Narcissa blushed and it was only then that I caught a glimpse at that magnificent ring on her finger.
" Secondly" father continued " Bella, I understand that you and Rodolphus Lestrange have been courting, but I believe that it would be wise for you to get engaged as well" Bella's look of horror showed. Rodolphus, Bella's so-called boyfriend, was a year older than her and liked her a lot. It's a shame that his ' Girlfriend' is doing the dirty on him, with her cousin might I add.
I'm not sure whether we are in that phase in our relationship"
" Some sort of relationship" Regulus said coldly. Sirius sent him deathly glare.
" Shut it regulus" Bella sneered. She and Regulus glared at each other. Oh boy. I didn't see this coming.
" Father, Uncle" Regulus began " Despite of what you might think of your presumably perfect Bella, have you ever wondered what she and my mudblood loving brother get up to" Bella gasped and said " don't even go there reg."
" Why? Afraid I'll jepordise your relationship with Lestrange? Well, not really, since your philandering about and your not even engaged!"
"Regulus!" Narcissa said, obviously shocked
" What has gotten into you child?" His mom, Walberga, said
" REGULUS BLACK! EXPLAIN THIS NONSENSE AT ONCE!" My uncle roared.
" You wanna know the truth? Well, here it is! Bella and Sirius have been seeing each other behind everyone's back! And you expect that filthy whore to get married when she committed incest? With her equally filthy cousin?!"
"How dare you!" yelled Bella. She stood up and looked straight at me
" Wanna share secrets now, andi? I hate you!"
My eyes opened in shock " ME! What have I got to do with any of this?" I asked amazed
Bella turned towards our parents, pointed her finger and screamed at the top of her voice:
" ANDROMEDA IS GOING OUT WITH A MUDBLOOD!"
Everyone, and I an also including the pictures of our ancestors on the wall, and the house elf, stared at me with shock. I opened my mouth but no sound came out. Oh Merlin, why does my name always get dragged into this?
