Alexandra was sobbing hard into Remus' shoulder as he stroked her hair and tried to comfort her.  Nothing eased the pain in Bellatrix's words. 

"I'm not a dyke like you"

This phrase rang again and again loudly in the mind of Alexandria.  The disgust in Bellatrix's voice for their relationship made her cry even harder.  "Calm down Alexandria"  Remus whispered gently in her ear as he gently rubbed her back.  Alexandria got up from Remus' shoulder and wiped her running nose.  The boy offered her a pack of tissues to wipe her wet crying eyes. 

"Hurt. I'm in a lot of pain. I feel like my heart has shattered down" Alexandria whispered, looking at Remus with red eyes from crying. 
"I know.  You need to find someone who truly loves you, who is not ashamed of you and what you feel.  To make you happy. Bellatrix is ​​incapable of satisfying you emotionally.  The only thing she cares about is her own pleasure and not your feelings" said Remus as he cupped her blushing and tear filled cheeks.  He knew that Bellatrix didn't deserve a chance and that it was futile to deal with someone who wouldn't admit the truth.  "You are right, but...."

This "but" made her think of intimate moments with the dark haired girl when everything stopped and nothing mattered beyond Bellatrix's hugs and kisses. Her caresses which may not have been frequent, made her feel important. 
"There is no "but" Alexandria.  I can understand how you caught feelings for her and how much it hurts but you have to move on.  We'd better go to bed" Remus answered her and got up from the couch taking his book
"Are you coming?"  he asked, extending his hand to the girl.  Alexandria nodded and got up from the couch after blowing her nose one last time. 

The next day dawned at Hogwarts and the students gathered in the Great Hall.  Alexandria was enjoying her food while her friends were talking. 
"The house is a mess with the preparations for my parents' stupid gathering.  It's embarrassing how much they want to impress the purebloods" Sirius shrugged his nose while lightly brushing his long black hair. 
"Really, who's going to be at the party" James asked him. Sirius winced as he heard his friend's question. 
"You know all the pureblood blood supremacists. Oh Merlin, I have to be all the time with my stupid cousin Bellatrix as well."
Alexandria choked on the cereal she was eating at the sound of her ex lover.  Remus subtly tried to reassure his friend. 
"And from what I heard, my aunt plans to marry the two lovebirds, Bellatrix and Rodolphus, and wants to bring them close to the party" said the long haired boy, sipping a little from his orange juice.  Alexandria looked up to look across at the Slytherin table .  There sat Bellatrix with obvious dark circles, distant from the world and abstracted.  Beside her her sister, Narcissa, was talking to Lucius, clearly flirting. Bellatrix at that moment looked up and saw Alexandria clearly benighted.
"Yet she is still half the most beautiful girl I have ever seen in my life" thought Bellatrix and shook her head at her own thought. She couldn't be feeling this way after yesterday's events. She was sure the Gryffindor wanted nothing to do with her. She was trying to find her gaze in the crowd. Even a nod from her was enough for her not to feel invisible to the only person she cared about.

Vainly

As soon as she found her blackened eyes from lack of sleep, she turned her gaze to Remus. 
"That werewolf boy" Bellatrix whispered angrily splashing her spoon into her breakfast. 
"What's wrong with you today?" Narcissa asked her, clearly worried. 
"Nothing has happened. What are you implying Narcissa?"
"You're not eating, you're not talking and you obviously haven't slept"
"I am fine. Don't worry about me"
Bellatrix replied as she stood up and walked away from the Great Hall. 

The first few hours passed quietly since the two girls weren't sharing any lessons.
"He must know about us" thought Bellatrix as she had seen Remus's curious glances towards her and his constant and private conversations with Alexandria. It was her only hope to resolve the misunderstanding and be reunited with Alexandria
"Hey doggie boy" Bellatrix addressed lightly tugging at the taller boy's shirt.  Remus was surprised to be approached by Bellatrix.
"Shove it off Black" and pulled her hand out of the shirt. 
"Well, how did you decide to talk to a half blood?"  Remus asked the dark witch as he looked for his bag
"At least you have some purity in your blood and not complete mud in your blood. And you seem useful to me."
Remus rolled his eyes and was about to leave but Bellatrix stopped him. 
"Wait. I feel that you know something. I can see it" Bellatrix said while Remus had his back turned to her. The boy turned to face her again. 
"I know you know and I want you to help me." Bellatrix said looking Remus in the eye. 
"I don't know what you're talking about." he answered surprised
"You know very well about what I'm talking" Bellatrix moved closer to Remus so that the conversation wouldn't be heard.

"Look" signed Remus
"I don't know what's going on exactly but you're the worst person for.  Alexandria and you deserve nothing."  Bellatrix swallowed hard as she heard Remus' words. 
"You don't decide if I deserve a second chance or not.  Alexandria is the one to judge. But for her to judge, I have to find a way to approach her and you are the only one who knows her well.  I know my words hurt her, but I also couldn't accept my feelings easily. I'm in love with her, Remus, and I will try anything to win her back" Bellatrix confessed to the boy.  It was the first time Bellatrix called him by his name. That moment, Remus realized that his friend may have found her love. Like he had found his Sirius.

"Let the business begin: gaining back Alexandria's heart"
