"what are you thinking of?" asked Gracie.
"I'm just thinking about how different life could be if my mother wasn't so much of a prejudice. How we could be together." Regulus replied after a long silence.

Gracie McKinnon was reading peacefully, as her sister and the rest of her friends talked and talked. Though, that had all stopped once they were infuriated by someone bursting through the compartment door. It was Regulus Black who seemed to be angry about something by the way he carried himself. His black curls were all over his face, but Gracie still managed to lock eyes with him. She couldn't help but to think of how attractive he had looked at the moment. 'Damn he looks attractive everyday!' thought Gracie.
"Um can I talk to Gracie for a sec?" Regulus asked the girls before they all nodded their head yes in sync. Gracie snapped out of her gaze before giving Regulus a small smile before getting up to leaving all the girls with surprised looks. But of course her sister Marlene had only winked at the girl before gossiping more into Lily Evans ear.
"Is everything alright?" Gracie asked as they walked through the train tiny halls. "Yeah I just wanted to give you this." Regulus took out Gracies 'Gone With The Wind' copy. "Oh right. I forgot about that." Gracie chuckled a little. For some reason, after Gracies and Emaline's talk she couldn't help but to the more nervous around the boy. She's been imagining what it would be like if they were to ever date. 'No, he doesn't like you that way' Gracie reminded herself. "Are you alright?" Regulus ask with a questioning face. Gracie had been quite as she scammed through the book.
As Gracie did so, she could see that Regulus had written some notes in the novel. This had triggered the blonde to bring a grin to her face. He had also written his initials right next the girls. It read 'This book belongs to G.K & partly of R.A.B'. "Oh uh sorry if you don't like my writing on there. The novel was really great, and I think I may now call it one of my favorites." the boy stated as he awkwardly shoved his hands into his trousers. Gracie shook her head "No no I love it. I'm glad that you enjoyed the book. It now not only belongs to me, but to you as well." The girl grinned to reassure the boy that it was fine.
Regulus couldn't help but smile , 'that girls smile is just so contagious' he thought. "Are you sure you're alright? You don't seem too good." Gracie asked worriedly. "Wow thanks McKinnon." The boy retorted. She rolled her eyes. "No I mean you don't seem to act alright. You're always attractive, you just don't seem to happy." The girl concluded. Regulus had just stared at the girl with raised eyebrows. Even through his beautiful curls Gracie could just see the look that his eyes are giving her which had only triggered her to blush like a wild cherry.
"What no that's not what I meant. Well actually yes it is but you shouldn't matter of what I think about you. " Gracie looked down at her feet slightly embarrassed but there no turning back. She just told him that she thinks that he's attractive! The girl cursed herself in her head. "Of course I care of what you think of me." Regulus said at loud. The girl sighed, "Alright then, tell me what is wrong" the girl regained her confidence as she crossed her arms in front of the boy. She wanted to give the same intimidating look as Emaline had given her in that one talk they had. The boy stuttered before finally saying. "Well, today is the day that I get to see my mother again. Lucky me." He rolled his eyes. "Ever since she sent that howler I haven't been returning her letter, which I am definitely going to get a beating about." He finished.
