“I only talk this way because it show you an re speaking to me. ” Narcisaa points an accusing finger at her cousin- though it quickly falls with his question. Silents floods the air and she it’s a long moment before she speaks; “I’m not sure if you’re just being cruel- or you really don’t know. Either way, I’ll tell you..- he’s dead.”
Sirius stared at her in mild disbelief. He had honestly not known. “Is he now?” He sounded mildly surprised, “Well, I am not going to say I am truly sorry to hear that dear cousin. If I wanted to be cruel I would have phrased my question differently. I honestly did not know. I have been underground for quite some time and am only now finding out quite a bit of new things such as my Godson living in my old house…with your son.”
“Oh…” Narcissa crossed her arms, smiling lightly. ‘That.” She moves her hands to her hips, looking down at the ground- contemplating what to say. ‘I wonder whether you knew yet. If you know about Harry and Draco- then I’m sure you know about Remus and I?”
Sirius nearly choked on his own tongue. His eyes widened a significant bit more, “Wait…what?” He stared at her incredulously, “No. You and…maybe I did die and this is simply hell…I didn’t think…what?” He was beside himself. “Last I heard, Remus…” His eye twitched, “Dear cousin…it seems I need to be caught up on the goings on of the world since I bowed out so many years ago…”
Narcissa pursed her lips and was silent for another long moment; “First off, you need to know that…I am a very different person than I was the last time we met.” How long ago was that? 10? 15 years? They couldn’t have been more than children. “I’ve changed. If I hadn’t…I don’t Remus would be with me.”
Sirius stared at her and cocked his head to the side, “Are you now? Have you suddenly turned over a new leaf? That you are a good person? How am I supposed to see this hmm? But alright, I will believe you have changed…if Remus puts up with you…let’s just be clear, Remus, the member of the Order Remus? Is who you are now married to?”
Cissi rolls her eyes- Sirius was always a stubborn arse. “I’m not married to him…yet. And I don’t expect you to believe me- though people do. Evans does- and you are well aware how awful I was to her in school. Though maybe it’s just because you’re blood; harder to get to, to convince. After all, blood is thinker than water.”
“Yet? Should I be expecting an invite to the wedding or should I show up as a four legged stray?” His eyes narrowed, “Her name is Lily. Not Evans.” He said with a chilly tone. “Yes, I am well aware of how terrible you were to her in school, and me for the house I wound up in…and yes, blood is very much thicker than water, but seeing as I was more or less cut off from my blood, I might as well be water, wouldn’t you agree dear cousin?”
“….” Narcissa stares at him- all the wasted years; all the anger between them made her sick to her stomach. “I didn’t come here for you to be ugly to me.” She shakes her head, eyes narrowed at her own cousin. “I was cut off too, Sirius- though it was much more recent for me. But as I said, I didn’t come here to exchange cruel words. I came here to tell you that…-“
“I’m sorry.”
