Chapter 41
Sirius
I knocked on her door with more force than I usually would, but I had to talk to her. ‘Come on Lex, I know you’re in there, open up!’ When the door didn’t open, I took out my wand and cast an Alohomora on the lock, it didn’t work, not that I had expected it to. I banged on the door as loud as I dared, the sound reverberating in the corridor. On my left, the door at the end of the corridor opened, Lex’ door remained closed ‘You know, if she doesn’t want to see you, or speak with you, she won’t open.’ Regulus stood in the doorway of that room. ‘What are you doing here?’ I asked him. ‘Alex came to me to ask me to escort her back here, Tom agreed to continue our conversation in his room, so I could escort my date home.’ As if on cue Tom appeared next to Regulus in the doorway. ‘She looked distressed, and was keen to avoid you, care to tell me what happened?’ Regulus continued. I shook my head ‘not before I talk to her’ I knocked on the door again, less forceful this time. It was the house elf who opened the door. ‘Pixie, please let me come in, I have to talk to your mistress.’ The house elf bowed very low before saying ‘I is sorry sir, but the mistress is not in her room, she is come in, changed and left again.’ She opened the door wider, and I couldn’t see anyone in the room. ‘Please, can I wait for her in her room? It’s urgent’ I told her. Pixie hesitated, clearly not sure weather or not to allow me to stay, in the end she nodded, and I was admitted to the room. The elf left as soon as she had settled me in a chair and had given me a cup of tea.
The terrace doors were still open, allowing the cool breeze inside. The wind had picked up, almost like a rainstorm was coming. Just as I thought about that, it started raining, and not just a little bit.
‘Pixie?’ I tried, normally house elves only responded to family, so I shouldn’t hope she’d respond to me. With a loud crack however, she was next to me ‘You is needing something sir?’ she asked. ‘Your mistress, did she by any chance go to the beach?’ I asked. The house elf was clearly uncomfortable with my question, I took that as a yes. I opened the terrace doors and transformed into my animagus form, knowing I’d have a better chance of smelling her as a dog. I hoped the rain hadn’t washed away the scent yet. I quickly followed the scent towards a secluded location, where it stopped. Lex’ scent was gone, but there was another scent I could distinguish, magic. I imagined she’d put up wards so no one would find her. I transformed again, and called out to her, no answer came. ‘I’m breaking down these wards anyway Lex, so please help me.’ Still nothing changed. I was no expert in wards, and these were complicated, I could dismantle two layers, but then, I couldn’t get any further. I went back to the resort to get help, Regulus was good at this sort of thing, maybe Tom could help, as he was fully qualified. ‘Where is she?’ Tom asked after Regulus let me in, it was as if he could read my mind. I told him where to find her, and made to go with him, but he stopped me ‘you and Regulus stay here’ he said. Regulus made quite the show of sitting back down, I didn’t understand the theatrics until Tom was out of the room. ‘We give him a head start, and then we follow’ Regulus told me. ‘Now will you tell me what happened?’ he asked. It seemed like a good idea to talk to Regulus, maybe he’d be on my side, and try to persuade Lex to talk to me. ‘Short version, Lydia was drunk, I wanted to escort her to her room, we fell and she kissed me, Lex walked in on that.’ He stopped pacing to glance at me ‘Crap Sirius, she walked in on you kissing Fawley?’ I nodded to confirm that he heard me correctly. ‘You don’t think it’s a little biased of her to be jealous? As she did just kiss Snape in front of me’ I tried. Regulus looked at his watch ‘Come on, Tom has his head start.’ We left the room, my question still hanging in the air, it didn’t escape my notice that Regulus hadn’t answered it. ‘Maybe the two of you need to have a serious talk’ he concluded. We walked towards where I assumes Lex was. Halfway it stopped raining, and when we reached the place, the wards were down and Tom was sitting next to Lex, his arm wrapped protectively around her. When we reached them, I saw him kiss the top of her head, and whisper something to her. She looked up at the sound of our approach. It was visible that she had been crying, her eyes were puffy and red. Because she’d been in the rain this long, her clothes clung to her body, and her hair stuck to her head. 'Come on Alex, you have to get back inside, put on some dry clothes, and then do us all a favour and talk to Sirius’ Tom said. Regulus helped her up, and put his jacket around her shoulders, as she was shivering violently. Regulus and Tom bade us good night when we reached Lex’ door. Lex unlocked her door and stepped inside. For a second I thought she’d slam the door in my face, it looked like the thought crossed her mind, but then she said ‘Apparently I have to talk to you, so come in.’ Her teeth started clattering, and I told her to take a hot shower first. To my great surprise, she actually listened to me, and got into the bathroom. When she came out again, she was wearing one of the large hotel bathrobes, she wasn’t shivering anymore. ‘Did you want a drink?’ she asked, already calling Pixie, the elf appeared taking in the scene before her ‘You is needing lots of tea’ she declared, making a teapot appear and pouring two cups. The she bowed, and left the room again. Lex sat down on the edge of her bed, and I took the recliner again. ‘It seems we need to talk, so talk’ she said. She wasn’t looking at me, she stared decidedly into her teacup, it annoyed me. Now that I had my chance for a conversation with her, I didn’t know what to say. I had no clue how to do this, was I supposed to apologize? I had no idea where we stood, and yet here we were because my brother and his friend had decided that we had to talk. I decided to go for honesty ‘I didn’t kiss Lydia I told her, maybe it was best to get that out of the way first. She snorted, and turned her head away from me ‘Sure, you were just inspecting her tonsils, really do you think I’m daft?’ I saw a tear making its way down her face, and falling in her tea. I stood and took her cup, placing it on the bedside table, before sitting down next to her. She was still determined not to look at me, so I told her ‘I’d rather have this conversation with you looking at me so you can see I’m not lying.’ She moved her head so she was looking at me again ‘Now will you please let me tell you what happened?’ She didn’t speak, so I took that as a yes.
‘Lydia had been clingy all night, and when I came back from a walk with Sophie she was clearly drunk, so I wanted to escort her to her room. She was swaying on her feet, so I held on to her, so she wouldn’t fall. However, she tripped, and we both fell. She kissed me, and that’s what you saw, that is what happened.’ She still looked like she didn’t believe me, so I cupped her face in my hands, and looked her straight in the eye ‘I didn’t kiss Lydia, she kissed me, please believe me.’ That strange pull was present again, I could tell she was just as affected as I was, but she pulled away anyway. ‘After you saw me, what happened, it took you some time to return to the party?’ I felt relieved that she’d give me the time to explain this time. ‘I called upon Kreacher to get her back to her room, I’m determined to have a conversation with Lydia about her behavior though.’ She opened her mouth to say something but changed her mind, and closed it again. ‘I only wrote to Lydia because I wanted a woman’s insight in how to best approach you, she said that an arrangement between the two of us would benefit her as well, I had no idea that this would happen.’ Unexpectedly a look of understanding crossed Lex’ face. ‘Lydia has loved Philippe as long as I can remember, but she wants to be wooed. She wants to feel like her man would go to the ends of the earth for her. Philippe didn’t understand that, and probably still doesn’t. She wants him to be jealous.’ I could see that now, Lydia thought that jealousy proved that you loved someone, and nothing else could prove that. ‘I’m so sorry for what happened, I should have never approached Lydia about this.’ She shook her head ‘No, you shouldn’t’ We were both quiet for a moment, and then she asked ‘I take it you’re not in love with Lydia?’
AN: you all know the answer to the question, so it’s not really a cliff hanger.
Please give me a kind review, it would be appreciated!
Any spelling mistakes I will correct when I edit, the keys here at work don’t always work as well, so forgive me. Also keep in mind that I’m not a native English speaker, nor any of the other languages I have used so far.
Next chapter is Alexandra again. Maybe some action? I’ll see where the muse takes me.
