June 24, 1972
"Come on." Andy urged her cousin, who due to his lack of casual clothing was struggling to keep up.
"Urgh. These stupid robes." Sirius huffed as he glared at said robes. His perfectly gelled hair was now a messed up.
"Lift them up." Andy told him.
"What?"
"Pretend it's a dress or something and lift it up. It'll be easier to run in." Sirius scowled but did as his cousin bid. Andy smirked as they continued to run, at least now they were moving at a faster pace than before.
"Don't laugh." Sirius pouted.
"I'm not."Andy insisted as the corners of her mouth lifted up.
"Yes you are." he accused. "You're smirking."
"That's not laughing." She said smugly.
Sirius remained adamant. "Yes, it is."
"Oh, look! There he is!"Andy pointed excitedly at a car that Sirius could barely see through the leaves.
"That's a...an interestingly colored car." Sirius noted looking towards the garish hufflepuff colored yellow.
"Don't judge." Andy scolded lightly.
"Yeah stand by me when I buy a house colored crimson and gold." Sirius remarked as he rolled his eyes.
"Please. You are too much of a Black to have such a bad sense of color coordination." Andy teased. Sirius raised his eyebrows as they silently but quickly made it to the car. A brown haired handsome young man leaned against the car, fiddling with the hem of his shirt nervously.
"Teddy!" Andy ran to stop in front of the car. "Let's go."
"I'd say hello, but we've already met and we've no time for pleasantries." Sirius grinned.
"Yes, well thank you for accompanying Andy. I will take good care of her." Edward said earnestly.
"You better." Sirius muttered before noticing Andy's expression and smiling. "Yes, well, with her as a wife you'll have more trouble taking care of yourself."
"Ignore him." Andy said to Ted as he started the car.
The couple then cruised off towards civilization.
Back at the Black Manor…
Regulus was having a great time, if you didn't count the fact that he was secretly freaking out about Sierra being Andy and Sirius doing who knows what, who knows where. He looked back towards the group of pureblood boys who were waving at him to join them.
"Regulus, are you excited to attend Hogwarts?"
"Yes, of course." Regulus replied with a curt nod.
"Do you plan on following your brother's footsteps and become a Gryffindor?"
"I believe that is in the Sorting Hat's decision, not mine. However, I am not my brother." Black said neutrally before politely excusing himself and going to one of the snack tables.
"That was impressive." Regulus looked up to find a familiar face.
"I don't know what your talking about." Regulus muttered.
"Hmm… I bet you do. Severus Snape."
"Regulus Black."
"Or the cute Black as Sierra often reminds me." Severus said as Regulus blushed.
"Well, she's not wrong." Regulus smirked before schooling his expressions back into the proper pureblood mask. "I hope you enjoy the wedding, Snape."
"Speaking of the wedding. Where's your brother?"
"I don't know." Regulus replied nonchalantly, though his muscles were tense. "He's probably wandering around."
"So, he's up to his usual mischief then." Severus muttered restraining himself from rolling his eyes.
"I should go check on my cousin." Regulus nodded before quickly entering the manor and heading towards Andy's room.
"Andy?" Regulus knocked on the door, hoping that the polyjuice had taken effect and feeling extremely awkward as Sierra/Andy opened the door.
"Hello there cousin." Sierra/Andy smiled down at him. Regulus flushed.
"Please don't call me cousin." He groaned. "Can I come in?"
"Sure, why not." Sierra/Andy shrugged, shutting the door behind him. "This is actually really fun!" Sierra/Andy grinned.
"You'll need to go out there and greet the guests. Please don't get caught." Reggie pleaded.
"We won't get caught." Sierra/Andy reassured him.
"Show me how you'll act...you need to get it right especially with Bella and Cissa..."
"Don't worry about it." Sierra smirked before taking out Andy's wedding dress. "Although it's such a shame that Andy never got to wear this. It's beautiful. Lucky me!"
"Right. Good luck." Regulus gave her a curt nod before turning around to leave.
"I have all the luck I'd ever need." Sierra/Andy promised.
Sierra/Andy was turning heads as she entered the large garden. She smiled at the guests and slowly made her way towards her parents.
"Oh darling, you look beautiful." her Lady Black "mother" commented.
"Thank you mother." Sierra/Andy said politely.
"Ah weddings, don't they turn us all from a girl to a woman." Bella said as she walked up from behind.
"I have always been a Lady, dear sister." Sierra/ Andy replied haughtily.
"Yes! You look so gorgeous. I told you that Grandmother Rosier's Tiara would look great on you." Cissa said with a squeal.
"Thank you Cissa. You are truly the most skilled at such fine matters." Sierra/Andy commented warmly as she gave Cissa a slight hug. Cissa smiled.
"Let's go meet some of the guests." Cissa said leading her away.
After a some time passes...
"Well, I should get going. I just need to make some minor adjustments to my hair." Sierra/Andy commented as she finished talking to Lady Greengrass. Quickly, she ducked into Andy's room and locked the door as she began changing back. Hopefully Sirius is back Sierra thought as she felt the wedding dress ballooning out around her and pooling onto the floor.
Deftly, she took the gown off and put on her original dress robes. She finished doing her updo when she heard a knock on the door. "Sierra you have to get out. They're going to come up in twenty minutes." Regulus said from the other side.
"Great." Sierra said. "Thanks." She let her arms drop before she walked across the room and opened the door. Racing downstairs, she made it out to the garden on record time.
"Nice to know you can run in heels." A voice said from behind her.
"Never underestimate the capabilities of the one and only Sierra Selwyn." Sierra curtsied as she faced Regulus with a smile. "Is Sirius back?"
"Not yet." Regulus replied worriedly as Cissa went up yelling, "Andy, get out here girl. You look beautiful and it's time to exchange your vows."
"Unbelievable." Sierra muttered. "Oh, well. It's not my funeral."
"You can't be serious." Regulus muttered as he fiddled with the sleeve of his robe.
Cissa came running out and made a beeline toward her mother before hurieldy whispering. Her mother quirked an eyebrow and followed her back to the manor.
"Enjoy the rest of the show Regulus." Sierra said with amusement, watching the entire scene play out.
Soon, Lord Black and other adult family members were rushing in to the manor.
"Sirius." Regulus muttered worriedly.
"Right there." Sierra pointed. Regulus slumped in relief as his brother made his way over.
"What did I miss?" He questioned.
"Except Regulus freaking out and the beginning of a perfect disaster, nothing much." Sierra smiled.
"Great." Sirius grinned as he turned to watch the older members of his family panic.
"How are you enjoying this?" Regulus muttered.
"Cause they deserve it." Sirius said.
"It's hilarious." Sierra said at the same time.
Lord Black then made his way toward the stage and slightly cleared his throat before announcing, "Andromeda Black is nowhere to be found. We apologize for the inconvenience but the wedding will be called off until she is located." Gasps could be heard as the guests looked at each other in confusion.
Sirius watched with satisfaction as Rabastan stalked off toward the manor as he yelled "I bet she ran off with that mudblood!" This only elicited another wave of murmurs and gossip.
Cissa looked devastated as Bella angrily yelled, "I'll find the mudblood and kill him. He can't have taken her far and if you are wrong, Rabastan, I will kill you."
Before she could apparate, Lord Black put up anti-apparition wards and calmly commented, "Bellatrix, you will stay here." The other guests slowly seemed to be recovering from their initial shock and started leaving.
"Well, I better find my parents. See you lads." Sierra said bidding them both farewell.
"That was most perfect "disaster" wedding ever." Sirius commented as he watched his family debating about what to do next.
