"Why didn't you wake me up?" Lucius glared at Rodolphus the next morning when Rodolphus said that James replied last night and was injured, but didn't tell about that and lied to Rodolphus for staying awake late night. Their Raven was injured. Some bastard dared to hurt their Raven. He won't let the person live when he knows the identity of the person.

"You were sleeping and-" "So? Is it more important than our Raven? He is hurt, someone hurt him and broke his rib. He must be in pain. He wanted to talk to us, but you said you just returned and he was worried about you and asked you to sleep. You didn't even fight and thought for a while about why he was awake at that time and just agreed. You are mad." Lucius was angry, really angry. His eyes were cold and sharp. He never looked at Rodolphus with such expression.

"He didn't let me talk. Also, I felt he should rest too. As you said earlier, he must be in pain." Rodolphus said back at him calmly not at all worried that Lucius would hurt him. "I worry about our Raven too. It's not only you that cares about him all the time."

"Then why the fuck didn't you ask him about his injury and just let it go? You don't care about our Raven. You just want him for his body and-" 

"Don't you dare, Lucius." Rodolphus warned through gritted teeth. "You and I both know how much I love James Potter. I can kill for him and even die for him. Don't you dare say that I don't love him and worry about him."

"Then why didn't you ask him?" Lucius shouted glaring at him. Rodolphus glared back with the same fierceness. 

"What would you do when you get injured? You would never tell me that you are injured until I see the injury myself or you slip up in front of me and groan in pain." Rodolphus said and Lucius' anger faded slightly. "James did the same thing. He didn't want us to worry so he didn't tell us."

"But, he has a broken rib. It is not the same as me. I never had such big one as him." Lucius still protested. "Someone hurt him, Rodolphus. It's not the same." He said through gritted teeth. James is not a kid to fall from the stairs and get hurt as Pomfrey said. Lucius doesn't believe that at all. Not even a bit.

"I know it Lucius. But, do you want our Raven to think that we are spying on him?" Rodolphus asked and Lucius was about to say before Rodolphus cut him off. "No one other than Sirius, Rabastan, Lupin knew about it. Not even Regulus. If he somehow finds out that no one knew about his injury when he wakes up this morning, but somehow we know. Won't he be suspicious? If instead of thinking Rabastan said and he thinks that we are spying on him, what would happen?"

"Think, Lucius. He is not yet ours. We might think he is ours, but he didn't say that he is ours. If he backs out, what are you going to do?" Rodolphus asked him.

"You thought about so much." Lucius said and sighed rubbing his face leaning back on the head board. "I'm sorry. I just woke up and you said about it. I was angry that you didn't wake me up to talk to him and wasn't thinking rationally. I'm really sorry, Dolph. I know that you love our Raven so much and would never use him. Forgive me, please." 

"I'm not mad, Lucius." Rodolphus shook his head and went to shower. Lucius knows that he hurt Rodolphus as he said Lucius and not Luc. It's all because of that potion, he can't even think properly because of the lust potion. Even after having a long night with Rodolphus, as soon as he saw that witch who potioned him, he felt bewitched slightly and wanted to go to her, touch her and many more. But, he controlled it well and left the room leaving Rodolphus to deal with her. 

Rodolphus stayed at the Slytherin Manor while he just stayed for an hour talking to Lord Slytherin before coming back and drunk himself to sleep. He knows why Rodolphus didn't wake him up. He must've seen the bottles lying on the floor when he returned and didn't want to disturb him.
