Being Sirius' Sister

Out from Our Hell

The rest of the year passed without anything else happening. At each meal I would see Severus looking at Lilly sadly. Many times I just wanted to go over to him to save he was forgiven but I would feel like I was betraying Lilly. Lilly, the guys and I sat together on the train ride 'home' it was nice to have them all but without Severus there it still felt like something was missing. My stomach dropped when we got off the train when I saw that yet again I would be spending the summer away from home. I clung to each of them for my goodbye. Sirius held me by the shoulders and looked me in the eye. "I promise that I will help you escape that hell before you know it."

I raised a worried eyebrow at his promise. "What do you have planned?" Sirius thought for a moment then kissed my forehead hugging me close.

"That's not for you to worry about, little sister. Just remember it's not much longer till I'm there." I nod and wipe away tears of worry. Worry about what punishments await Sirius at that dumb house. I take a shuttering breath in and walked away not looking back till I was in front my instructor. I gave a small wave before I'm away for another dreadful summer.

*Skip One Month*

Sitting in the garden under a large tree I close my eyes leaning back. I heard a pop but thought nothing of it. "Well is this a way to greet your favorite brother?"

My eyes popped open and I leaped up as fast as I could with the tight corset dress. I wrapped my arms around Sirius like a boa and squeezed tight. "Sirius! What are you doing here?"

"I told you I would get you out of here and I never break a promise to my little sister." Sirius spun me around before setting me on my feet and looking at the contraption I was wearing. "Now its time that we leave and get you some real clothes."

I sigh dramatically. "Okay, Sirius. Off we go!"

Sirius holds out his arm. Sirius looks at me sideways. "You know if you leave with me you cant go back." Seeing his eyebrows furrow I worry about what happened during the time he spent at the horror house. "Scarlett, I got disowned. If you leave here, it will be you."

I tighten my grip on his arms. "I don't care as long as you are still my brother and the guys and Lilly are still there."

"I guess it's off to James house. Hold on tight." With that we were gone. Away from those that hated us. Away from those who judged us for being 'blood traitors'. Away from the 'pureblood noble' life. Out from our hell.
