Chapter Eleven

Sirius Black

Sirius walked up to the Slytherin table for lunch getting a lot of dirty looks, but ignored them walking up to Andy.

"Hey, cousin." Sirius greeted and Andy looked back at him and then at her friends.

"Give us a minute," Andy said standing, "Come on." Sirius raised a brow but followed her out of the Great Hall.

"Where are we going?" Sirius questioned.

"Somewhere there aren't eyes and ears," Andy informed slipping into a classroom and Sirius followed.

"Are you embarrassed to be seen with me?" Sirius asked surprised chuckling sitting on the desk and Andy looked at him surprised.

"You don't know?" Andy asked shocked.

"Know what?" Sirius asked.

"I thought you would have noticed." Andy voiced.

"Notice what, Andy?" Sirius questioned getting annoyed.

"You've been ousted, Lucius told his father about you being in Gryffindor and his father practically mocked your parents for not being able to control you, everyone has been forbidden from talking to you," Andy informed.

"I thought I was dramatic." Sirius scoffed smirking, "I was wondering why it's been so damn peaceful since I got here." 

"You're not upset?" Andy questioned.

"Why would I be upset, that the only repercussion of being in Gryffindor is mother and father not talking to me, that is basically a reward." Sirius grinned.

"Sirius, everyone, has been forbidden to talk to you," Andy repeated like he was missing something.

"So we'll just sneak around when we want to talk like this, it's a nice enough classroom." Sirius shrugged.

"Sirius, you aren't listening, who haven't you heard from since you got here?" Andy raised and brow and Sirius caught on his smile fading.

"Reggie, they wouldn't." Sirius denied and Andy looked at him sadly.

"They think you're a bad influence, he was the one that owled me about it, they're checking all his letters and have locked up the owls." Andy informed.

"They're not hurting him?" Sirius worried standing.

"He's said, they've gotten stricter after hearing the news, he didn't say they were hurting him, but stricter doesn't exactly bode well, I've told him to keep his head down and not do anything that might upset them until they calm down a little," Andy explained and Sirius started passing.

"All this for a house." Sirius snapped shoving over a chair.

"It's not just that," Andy informed and Sirius looked at her. "Your new friends aren't exactly what they had hoped for." 

"James is a Pureblood, so Remus." Sirius insisted as Andy picked up the chair he pushed over with a wave of her wand.

"Potter is a Potter, Your friend Lupin his mother is muggle-born so he's technically a half-blood and Pettigrew is of unknown birth, single witch mother who is financially challenged, plus that muggle-born you've been seen talking to multiple times. It's all adding up to an unflattering picture of your parents." Andy explained.

"What does this mean?" Sirius questioned.

"I'd start saving up what little they gave you before you came because they won't be sending you any more money, I also don't think you'll be wanted for Christmas." Andy detailed and Sirius scoffed.
