All of the stars (regulus Black)

~13~

again not edited-
The noise from the great hall was that of dreams, too cheery to be a pureblood ball and too grand to be a Muggle party of any sort. Estelle felt the rise and fall of her chest speed up with her nerves. She reminded herself of the large palm resting itself in the small of her back to ground herself.
She sighed at the boy who for two whole years even looking at her made her soul be consumed with fury was the the owner of the hand she was using as a grounding technique. How silly of her to let him get this close. But she didn't care. What she did care about was the lingering redness in the face of a certain muscular gryffindor as she and Regulus made their way into the great hall. It wasn't like a movie, there was tension between her and Regulus like he regretted dragging her here and wished he'd left her sobbing in the corridor.
As much as they thought people weren't looking. Everyone was. Estelle took gentle steps guided by Regulus towards her friends. They both assumed she would want to go there first. You know Gryffindor morals and all. Lily had the largest smile etched across her cheeks, like that of a proud mother. Emmeline and Dorcas were both drooling over Regulus and Estelle. James, Sirius and Remus didn't know how to feel, she was after all on the arm of a snake and Sirius' brother but she looked so content.
"Oh Estelle you look beautiful," Lily engulfed the girl awkwardly with their both huge ball gowns, Lily while over the short girl's shoulder mouthed an incredibly grateful 'thank you' to Regulus without even knowing what had fully happened.
"Thank you so much Lily, I know i've told you a thousand times but you look so stunning,"  She smiled back happily. James then took his step forward, Estelle let out a breathy sigh.
"You look beautiful essie, but him, mclaggen was bad enough," he paused taking in something from behind her.
"And it looks like he's wondering the same things as me," Causing Estelle to snap around to be met with a firm grip of the arm by Mclaggen.
"What do you think you are doing," The red-faced boy seethed in her face and she could feel his hot breath . It didn't feel like Regulus', how the hell could she be taking this moment to think about that now slightly less despicable boy.
"Huh, Elle, What are you doing here doing god knows what with Regulus Black" he ducked in really close Estelle tried to back up escaping his grip but failed only being able to reach and grab the sleeve of the boy who had saved her the first time. Noticing her own weakness and the fact that she was letting this boy have power over her she snapped back up.
The dark haired boy sighed, he hadn't stepped in because he hoped in his heart that the fire within Estelle would let itself out like it had done to him many times. She slapped him, making him stumble back and gasps fill the hall.
"How fucking dare you Rory maclaggen, I wore a dress you'd never see me wear, if you knew me at all you wouldn't even fucking suggest it and i walked out to get air for a second and saw you and rheya Brown with your tongues down eachother's throats, if you think you have any say in who I touch or Kiss, or shag then you would be so fucking wrong," She took a breath before leaning closer to his backing away figure.
"You see how hot I look, He is the one who did it," she pointed to Regulus. Whispering even closer but not so it was inaudible to others
"And he is going to be the only one who gets to take it off, because i'm loyal to my dates, It could've been you," She turned away to be met with the gaping mouths of her friends. She coughed taking the glass of ambiguous liquid (firewhiskey) out of the hand of Sirius Black and downed it smiling. Estelle felt powerful as she met Regulus' smirking figure.
"Don't you have friends to go and see Mr black?" she questioned.
"Just trying to recover from you saying that I'm the only one with a chance of fucking you tonight," He winked backing away making Estelle scoff and roll her eyes in a playful manner.
"First of all, you are not shagging regulus," James and Sirius spoke.
"Shut the fuck up," everyone replied in unison like in a muggle movie.
The girls immediately pulled Estelle aside demanding that she told them what had happened in detail, and so she did in a lengthy way making the girls gasp and Dorcas throw out streams of words she'd never even considered saying. They didn't mean to ditch their dates but they did laughing and giggling and smiling trying to forget the earlier events. But Regulus' touch was something she couldn't forget. The way his hands connected with her, making everything else melt away, just thinking about it made her long for it to return.
