Chapter Text
Are your bags packed?" I asked in a whisper. Tonight is the night that we escape this wretched house. Our parents are away this weekend on a trip to (according to them) 'get away from us heathens'. Kreacher is supposed to be watching us but knowing him he's out kissing up to Walburgas ass.
Still we need to be quiet, the walls have eyes and ears everywhere. Even Reggies room isn't safe. our only hope is that no one finds out. "yep i'm already" Regulus answers looking up at me. I want to cry but I have to be strong for Reggie, so I wipe my eyes and smile. "Its funny" I say as I shrink my bags. "What now Siri?" he sighs but I can hear a smile in his voice.
"After all their work to mold us into their perfect heir's they always tried to keep us away from one another. And now we're here together now running away" I chuckle as he rolls his eyes.
We hear Kreacher's footsteps coming up the stairs. “Hide“ he hisses as he ducks into the closet. I jump onto the bed with a muggle magazine in hand. I open it just in time as Kreacher opens the door.
"time for dinner master Sirius. Also, have you seen master Regulus? He's not in his room" Kreacher asks. I make sure not to look at the closet as I put down the magazine. I make sure to put a cold mask of indifference on as I look at Kreacher.
"Am I his keeper?" I said coldly. Kreacher flinches away like he was going to get hit- well i did channel my inner black so he probably thought he was. Scurrying out of the room with a quick "No master. Sorry master Sirius, I will find master Regulus." shouted behind him. When the cost was clear Regulus poked his head out to glare at me.
"What's up with that glare, my dearest brother?" I say well a small grin plasters my face.
He scowls at me” you know not to scare Kreacher.” he looks disappointed and that hurts more than any curse mother threw at me “you promised me you wouldn't speak to Kreacher like that anymore” My face softens at that sad and disappointed tone. We're now in a staring contest but I look away first.”I know and I'm sorry I'm just so pumped about tonight. were finally escaping this hellish house” I smile guiltily at him.
Its silent for a minute- so much so I start to squirm
"You should go to the library now before Kreacher starts to freak out and point the blame at me" I say to break the silence. It works as reggie startles and starts to look around "hmm- OH yes i will do that' he says well walking out. I smile and start my own walk downstairs
