Chapter 23
Alexandra's POV
When I got back from the lunch with the Black family, which had been as tiring as was to be expected, I wrote a quick note to my father to let him know that I had pleased the Black family. Even without Regulus' confirmation of it, it had been obvious that I won Mrs. Black over. I hadn't been sure about Lord Black, but Regulus assured me that his father had been won over by my insight in politics. It had been lucky that I had just been studying our political system not a month before, and had come up with my own view on it. When we got back to the castle I plead a headache, to escape the many questions I knew the others would fire my way. I took Lily aside before I went up to the common room. I had asked her to speak with Severus, which she had. She confirmed that he would be taking me to the dance, and that he wanted to apologise for being so absent lately. He had promised her that he would try to spend some more time with me.
I wanted to know what was wrong with him, but Lily told me he had asked not to pry, he would talk to me about it when he was ready. I wondered what that meant, but decided to drop it, like he said, he would talk about it when he wanted to.
With a nod, and an thankful hug, I went to my dorm, to get some rest before the dance.
Mary woke me up an hour before the dance. I had been fast asleep, and seen as I had told her I had a headache before, she thought I could do with the extra sleep. I had banked on having more time to prepare, and tried to be quick in the shower, trying to win some time.
When I got out of the shower, my dress was on the bed. Regulus had informed me that it wasn't going to be a costumed party, but a masked ball. As such I had ordered a nice silver eye mask. My dress was a floor length black strapless gown, with a sweetheart neckline. This time I had my father's apporval for the gown, so I didn't feel bad putting it on. I glanced at the clock, I only had half an hour to get ready, there simply wasn't enough time. So I did something I had never done before whilst at Hogwarts, I called for my house elf Pixy. Pixy had been my assigned house elf since I was born. At first she had served as my nanny, saving my mother a lot of work. As I grew, Pixy had become my confidante. She was always there when I needed her, and she cared for me as if I was her daughter; She cared more for me than my mother ever had.
With a loud crack she was by my side immediately 'What can Pixy do for Miss?' she asked me.
I told her that I wanted my hair pinned up. She helped my with the make up, and dress, in no time I was ready. She hugged me when she was done 'You is looking beautiful miss.' she said, before leaving me with a loud crack.
I put the mask on my face, and tapped my wand to it, to make it stick to my face. Next were the shoes, they had been my biggest worry,my mother had sent me a pair of silver pumps that looked very uncomfortable. Luckily Pixy had made sure to put a balancing charm on them, so they would feel as comfortable as any other shoes I owned.
I was surprised when I head a tap at my window. It was an owl carrying a small parcel. It left as soon as I untied the package. I hadn't recognised the owl, but the script on the note that accompanied the parcel was unmistakably Sirius'.
I read the note first, curious as to what Sirius, of all people, might be sending me.
Lex,
I'm sorry for having been such a prat to you.
I wish I could be taking you tonight, but I promised Snape I wouldn't.
It would mean the world to me if you would wear this tonight tough.
It used to belong to a wonderful woman, who left us not too long ago. I
I hope you like the changes I made to it.
Sirius
Mary came in just when I opened the box. She gasped at the sight of it's content. 'Sweet Morgana, who sent you that?' In the small juwlery box sat a necklace, it was a purple heart shaped diamond, surrounded by white diamonds. I was too much in awe at the contents of the parcel to speak yet, so I handed her the note. I took out the necklace he sent me, a lonely tear making itself known. The necklace had belonged to his great-grandmother Aurora. I had known her well. She had been a sweet woman, who passed away in her sleep not a year ago. Sirius had been devastated at her passing. I saw what he meant by changes, when it had belonged to Aurora, the centre stone had been blue, now it was purple.
'Alex?' Mary said, sounding unsure 'do you want me to help you put that on?' she asked, holding out her hands. I gave her the necklace, and turned around, so she could. 'Do you want to talk about it?' she asked. I shook my head, no I had just been overwhelmed. 'It looks great on you, who knew that Black had such good taste?' she mused. I turned around to face her. 'Mary please don't tell anyone he gave this to me.' She seemed surprised at my behaviour, but agreed to keep it a secret. 'You ready?' she asked. I locked Sirius’s note in my trunk, and followed her towards the great hall.
