Breaking Free (Black Cousins)

Play date

9 year old Sirus Black was looking out the window a group of kids playing in Grimauld Place, he didn't know what they were playing, it seemed as some sort of sport with a ball.
"Siri, what are you doing staring at the window? you should be getting ready to meet Diana" His mother said behind him.
"What is so important for me to meet Diana?, may be we can go play with the other kids outside" Sirius said in a sad tone.
"Don't ever think about it Sirius, those kids are not like you, they are muggles, disgraces of earth, incapable of performing magic, don't go near them, they'll make you sick. Once you marry Diana Carrow you can move away from them, to a fancy cottage in the farmlands, why are you so stubborn kid, your brother had an splendid time with Cassia Rosier the other day, your cousin Bella is clearly charming that Lestrange boy and little Narcissa is getting close with Lucius Malfoy, and Andi is pretty enough to win over Malcom Greengrass." His mother said.

" but what if I don't like Diana?, what if we aren't even sorted in the same house?" Sirius asked
" Don't be silly Sirius, she is a really nice girl, and you will be a nice little boy for her, and don't be ridiculous all Blacks get sorted into Slytherin and so do the Carrows" his mother said
Suddenly cousin Andi stepped into the room.
"Aunt Walbie we are ready to go, you said you would take us to Diagon Alley today to get our school supplies" Andi said.
"And I will go with you in a minute after I get Sirius here ready for his play date" she finally said
Diana Carrow came in with her mother, she was small with short strawberry blonde hair and big dark eyes, and Sirius led her to his room and showed him the toy broom his uncle had gotten for him. Then Diana spotted a chess board.
"Could we play chess, I love that game and we would probably break something if we go around flying in the broom" she said softly.
"Sometimes I break things with that broom on purpose just to get mom mad, but if you wish to play chess then we shall, which pieces would you like?" Sirius said.
"The white ones, Black is already your surname, so you should play with them" she said.
"Nonsense, I have enough talk about the importance of Black daily, I will play with the white ones" Sirius said.
"You aren't like the rest of your family Sirius, you're a rebel, that will give you trouble" Diana said.
"I like trouble, is far less boring than being in this house all day" Sirius said.
And so, they began their chess game.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Andromeda and her sisters, went to Diagon Alley with their aunt Walburga as Andromeda and Bellatrix were to get their school supplies , Andromeda was going to enter her first year of school so she had to get her wand, it was the last item they were picking up, but when Bella noticed someone in line to get a wand.
"Andi look, that is Malcom Greengrass, go talk to him and get your wand." Andi's older sister said giving Andi some money.
Andromeda made her way into the shop
"Hey I am Andromeda Black" she said nervously
"Malcom Greengrass, so you are the girl I'm supposed to marry, you are pretty, maybe a little shy, but I do like you" he said stretching his hand
"So, are you nervous about getting your wand, my sister tells me a lot about how cool it is to get a wand" Andromeda said nervously.
"I guess, I don't know, I am curious what it will be made off" he said.
Then a kid entered running into the shop and came up to Malcom and Andromeda
" Is this the wand shop?, I am so lost, this magic thing is so weird" the boy asked
"Yes, this is the wand shop don't worry" Malcom said.
"Thank you, I'm Edward Tonks, by the way, but everyone calls me Ted, nice to meet you" the boy said.
"I'm Malcom Greengrass, and this is Andromeda Black it is nice to meet you too" Malcom said.
Andromeda limited herself to smile nervously, she couldn't believe Malcom was talking like that to a muggle born like that, so nicely, all she heard all day was her family talking about them as if they were insects and dirt but Ted seemed like a nice kid no different from herself or Malcom.
After exiting the shop with her new wand she asked Malcom
"Why were you so nice to Ted? You know how our families think about people like him"
"I think those are dumb thoughts, they aren't any different from us, I wouldn't marry one or be best friends with one but I see nothing wrong with being nice to them, they are lost in a world they weren't born into, a little help isn't bad, and it doesn't hurt me" Malcom said to her.
