occasus [regulus black]

𝐱.

When Nesrin woke up the next day, she was confused as to the unfamiliar surrounding, before she remembered that she must've fallen asleep on Sirius lap yesterday evening. Turning to the right she could she him next to her, sitting on the corner of the bed, changing into his robes. Trying not to shift the bed as much while moving towards him, she put her arms around his back. He slightly flinched at the sudden touch, but relaxed into it when he realized, that it was Nesrin.

"Looks like I have to leave now."

"You could wear my robes."

"I do have some Slytherin pride in me, you know."

"Why are you sleeping with a Gryffindor then?" He asked her with a cheeky grin, turning towards her. She had a slight imprint of the pillow case on her right cheek, that he stroke softly.

"Maybe I should stop doing that." Teasing each other was something they did regularly, but his eyes still darkened a bit. He then started kissing her neck slowly.

"Is that what you want?"

"I'll definitely need some time to think about it."

"Tell me your conclusion at our date later then." He whispered against her neck, sending goosebumps down her spine.

"Date?"

"Surprise."

She pulled away and looked at him amazed. Sirius could feel a slight flush creeping upon his cheeks. It wasn't like him to organize dates, but with Nesrin everything was different. He wanted to do it right.

She hurried to the dungeons and ran into her dorm she shared with Estelle and Ophelia, but it was already empty. Checking her clock repeatedly, while changing she couldn't help but wonder since when Estelle had left. Nesrin had no idea how, but she managed to get to the North Tower for Divination just in time. Still slightly out of breath she sunk into a turquoise pillow and looked around, searching for Estelle.

"Don't bother searching for her. Selwyn won't join us today." Professor Trelawney had just started teaching this year and Nesirn already didn't like her. She kept staring at her with fearful eyes, magnified through her circular glasses.

Estelle could see clouds passing by through the glass roof of the greenhouse. After her encounter with Regulus she had been furious and therefore decided not to return to the common room until she cooled down. Now she laid on top of a table, smoking a joint, watching the clouds pass by. She knew that she couldn't hide in here forever, but maybe long enough until she knew what to tell Nesrin. Absentmindedly she drew her wand and twisted it around a few times.

Hazel and Dragon heartstring, she gave it a flick and tried changing the clouds form, just like Nesrin did before the summer. Nothing happened. At first she thought, that it was her wand that didn't work and even went to Ollivander to ask him about her weak spells, but nothing. According to him the Dragon heartstring in her wand should be able to produce the most powerful spells. The pairing with Hazel wood is what made it more complicated. Hazel is known to reflect the owners emotional state and works best with controlled emotions, but if she could do that she will be capable of outstanding magic. That was the problem, she didn't know how to solve, every time she thought she had her emotions collected enough, was focused enough and tried casting a spell, it was weak.

Without Estelle on her side Nesrin felt like she was about to die out of boredom. They would usually chat during the lessons and breaks, but today she couldn't find her. After her last lesson charms had finally ended, she slowly started to worry. After asking around a bit, she found out, that no one had seen her since the party.

"Are you ready?"

She was so sunken into her thoughts, that she didn't see Sirius approaching her with a big grin on his face. He had planned this for so long and was more than excited to finally take her out properly.
