The other black

Chapter 8

As summer approached Nora would talk to you about things like her family, where you'd be your fake story, and what you should reply with or believe in

Regulus was ignoring what was happening as he was studying, you don't think he even remembers where he is or who's around him, he once forgot he was in your room studying and was shocked when he stood up and saw you laying in your bed

"Understand?" Nora asks and you nod

"Yeah I do, your life is messed up." You say and Nora laughs

"I know it is, but you understand more then my life is messed up?" Nora asks and you nod

"Yeah I do don't worry." You say and Nora nods

"Now don't smile too much, I know you always smile but don't." Nora says and wow don't smile?

"Your life is messed up, like no smiling? You ok?" You say and Nora nods

"Yeah it's my life, I'm used to it." Nora says and damm you felt bad for her

"You like wanna come live with me in the muggle world? We got smiles." You say and Nora laughs and regulus looks over getting snapped out of his studying trance

"What's so funny?" He asks and you walk over and kiss his cheek which he looked at you like not around Nora

"Nothing you'd have to have been listening in to find it funny." You say and Regulus nods "You know I have to do all these things just to meet your parents, but you haven't talked about meeting mine, or do you just not wanna come to the muggle world at all." You say and regulus looks up at you

"I didn't think I had to change myself for them, you'd be killed if you didn't change yourself." Regulus says confused did he have to change himself? What would he change? Pretending to be a muggle? Is that what he has to do?

"No I don't mean that, I mean you haven't asked about them or even what their names are, or who they are, or if you even want to meet them." You say and Regulus sighs

"Well I'm busy finishing studying for tests like you should be." Regulus says and you laugh

"What can I say I like to procrastinate." You say and Regulus sighs again not understanding how you could procrastinate

"I know, I think my brother rubbed off on you." Regulus says and you kiss his cheek and then giggle

"No I was the only reason he'd study, after days of asking him to study with me, he'd finally do it and then be able to pass." You say and regulus nods

"Should have let him failed." Regulus says and you burst out laughing as Regulus signals to Nora to leave

And immediately when she does he kisses you

"You know you don't have to do that, you can kiss me whenever you want." You say and Regulus shrugs

"Well I just think we don't really need to kiss in front of people, they don't need to watch, I don't understand why there's so many couples snogging in the halls like keep that in your private life." Regulus says and you thought he was so cute

"Because they just can't keep their mouths off each other and don't wanna wait until they are in private." You say and Regulus nods

"Well that's just weird like no one wants to see that, like I can wait to put my lips on yours." Regulus says and you smile at him

"Your adorable." You say and Regulus smiles at you

"Thanks now I need to finish and make sure I know all the answers off by heart." Regulus says and you don't know why he study's so hard

"Why do you study so hard?" You ask and Regulus sighs as he thinks of how his mother would kill him if he didn't get perfect marks

"My mother." Regulus says and you nod

"Well she's not here is she." You say and Regulus nods

"Just have to keep my marks up or else she'll get angry." Regulus says and you looked at him worriedly

'Sirius would tell me how his mother is a demon who deserves to die, I wonder if Regulus thinks different of her or it's basically still the same.'
