Of All The Stars: Sirius Black

Estelle ripped her arm out of the boys hand, her eyebrows narrowing. "What do you want?" She asked through gritted teeth, a look of disgust filling her face.

"Well then, there's the Gryffindor Queen. I was worried you may have lost your crown."

"Go away, I'm trying to study." Estelle said, beginning to walk away.

"Cut the shit. What are you thinking? You have no idea what you are playing with here."

"I don't know what you are talking about." Estelle said, pulling a well worn book off the shelf.

"If my brother were to see you, then what?"

"Don't you dare bring him into this Regulus. You don't even deserve to let a breath of his air slip past your snake tongue." Estelle spat, a faint fiery glow burning behind her eyes. "I know that you and your disgusting bigot friends are up to something, and I am going to figure it out. So either step out of the way, or face the music when it plays."

"You have no idea what is under the surface you are peeling away, but I am warning you. You need to stop." Regulus's eyes softened, but his rough tone didn't.

"What do you care?"

"As much as I would love to watch my brothers fall from glory, as his girlfriend is brought into the...This group. But I am feeling particularly generous today."

"First of all, bite your tongue. I am not Sirius's girlfriend. Second of all, I see nothing generous behind you accosting me in the library over something that is none of your business."

"You aren't fooling anyone with that shit. But I'm glad you brought up my business, as it seems you are the one having a problem staying out of it." Regulus said, rolling his eyes.

"So you admit, you are apart of it? You are part of whatever sick society they have created?" Estelle's eyes searched him, falling on a metallic pin half covered by his cloak.

"You think they created this? You really have no idea what you are talking about." Regulus chuckled, but there was no humour in his laugh. It was filled with a mocking insult.

"I have seen you in the boat house on the full moon. I know you are holding some kind of meeting. If you don't tell me now, I will find my own way in." Estelle said, she didn't care about holding in any secrets anymore. She was positively fuming.

It felt like every follicle of hair on her body was standing on end, and this darkness was swelling inside her chest. She glared at the boy, who so closely resembled someone she held very dear.

He stared back in silence, an expression she couldn't quite read; whether it was shock, confusion or something else entirely.

"You think we would be stupid enough to meet there? It is in perfect view of many people in the castle. If you could see it, think about how many others can too."

"Why would I expect the truth from you." Estelle said, her thoughts nearly becoming incoherent with her rage.

"Stay out of this Estelle, I am only going to warn you this once. If you don't back off, I can't save you." Regulus said, any hint of emotion had completely vacated his face. He smoothed his robes, and stuck his hands in his pockets, strolling away as if nothing happened.

Estelle felt like screaming. That boy was completely insufferable, who does he think he is? Estelle thought, her teeth grinding together. He is a stupid, pureblood who thinks he is above anyone he speaks to. How dare he command her.

Stupid boy, stupid, nosey, pathetic, asshole. Different names kept popping into her head as she scanned the bookshelves, looking for something to cool her off. Madam Pince had strolled past her three times now, giving her the up and down.
