Dinner was always a boring time. Narcissa found it to be very boring sitting in a hall where people whispered to one another as though their secrets held some great merit. In reality, Ariella’s fucking partners had no relevance to what was really going on. Sirius’ over the top anger didn’t have much either. None of it mattered, not really, so Narcissa didn’t see the purpose of pushing herself through another dull situation. She had, instead, gone to the kitchen to grab some food and then travelled outside to where the magical creatures were kept. It was like a big farm barn, like she had seen on the muggle books she had browsed through. Except there were no pigs or cows, there were Flobbeworms and Nifflers, even a Kneazle and a few Hippogriffs. Of course, there was only one which Narcissa was going to. “Artan.” Narcissa called out softly as she walked over to the tiny Hippogriff in its own sty. It called out with a little squeak of a noise, and Narcissa couldn’t stop herself from grinning as she heard it. She crouched down by the pen and held her hand out as the creature as it sounded as though it was purring. |

Ash wasn’t sure how he knew he would find Narcissa here. He followed his instinct. Gwen’s smile was embedded in his mind – knowing, somehow, that Ash would run to find Narcissa. It isn’t like me, he told himself. But I can do anything I want. I’m Ash. The simple reminder was enough to send him walking with a haughty sway to his hips again. A knight in shining armour. Almost. Ash tripped on his way into the barn, slipping over loose mud and earth. Ash cursed wildly as he landed on his bottom. Across the barn, Narcissa was standing with the Hippogryffs. Her blonde hair sparkled in the low light of evening. “I know how to make an entrance!” Ash called to her. |

“The boy never cried again, and he never forgot what he'd learned: that to love is to destroy, and that to be loved is to be the one destroyed.”

Narcissa held her hand out to the little Hippogryff, it was her own little pet. Narcissa knew that if she wanted this creature, she could get it with a snap of her fingers. She didn’t need her families power for that either, although it would have helped if she got into any trouble. Her fingers ran through the feathers and a wide grin spread onto her lip. Her quiet moment with her animal was suddenly interrupted with a crash. At first she felt a barrel of anger crash against her spine. She spun to look at who it was, but her face almost instantly softened into a confused stare as she saw who it was. Narcissa had expected a second year kid to be snivelling in the corner, of maybe a group of kids wanting to look at the animals. But there, planted in the mid, was Ash. “I can agree with that.” Narcissa commented as she walked towards Ash. “Remember what animals you are dealing with Ash.” Narcissa carefully warned as she held out a hand for him. “What are you doing here?” |

Ash let Narcissa help him up. Her warnings sounded like they came from a mom – stern, but with a little forgiveness. Grinning, Ash shrugged his shoulders as he brushed dirt from his back and pants. Always classy, he thought, and he couldn’t help but snicker. “Following you, of course,” said Ash, smiling. He brushed past her, his eyes trained on the animals before them. Narcissa’s hippogriff was young, but its eyes were already the color of melting gold. Ash kept cool, and their eyes locked. Slowly, Ash bent forward, leaving the soft skin of his neck exposed. The hippogriff, almost lazily, bent at the knee. It folded itself forward. Together, the two rose, and Ash approached the feathered creature slowly. “Is this what you are now?” asked Ash. “The mother of hippogriffs?” |

Narcissa raised an eyebrow as she pulled Ash up from the ground and watched him as he walked towards her pet. She didn’t move a muscle as she watched him, it mimicked the way that her hippogriff stared. She folded her arms carefully as Ash made a joke, she slowly shook her head and walked towards him. “Why would you want to follow me?” Narcissa innocently questioned as she stepped towards Ash. Her eyebrow rose as she glanced back to Artan. He was staring at Ash with wide eyes, almost questioning him. Narcissa tried not to laugh. “I’m just looking after him. We did find him.” Narcissa stopped beside Ash. |

“Right,” said Ash, smirking. “Does that make me his father?” With a smirk, Ash stepped closer to the animal. He admired its rustled feathers, like woven-together leaves. It was beautiful, with a sharp beak and talons that would soon slice flesh. Narcissa’s beloved pet could crack bone if it wished. In so many ways, he was perfect for Narcissa. “Anyway,” Ash sighed. “It’s better than sitting around with Wyatt and Cersia trying to outdo each other, Ariella and Julian trying to convince everyone that they’re not dating, and me, in the middle. It’s useless without you.” Ash flashed her a smile. “I guess I’m just ready to leave sometimes,” Ash admitted. |

Narcissa tilted her head and squinted her eyes as she looked at him with a slight smirk. Almost as though she was thinking about that question. “Well, I think Teddy took a liking to him. You two would be excellent fathers.” Narcissa winked at him, for maybe the first time, as she tried to joke around with the idea. After all, they had both been there for the little creatures first moments of life. Narcissa had been there for both of those moments though, she was the true owner. Maybe she was a bit possessive over the creature, but she didn’t see anyone else coming out to look after it. Narcissa turned back to Ash as he spoke about the others in the hall. Her eyes rolled at the mention of Julian and Ariella, as though she needed to hear more about that train wreck. “I suppose I can be pretty useless without you too.” Narcissa admitted as she found herself reaching out to hold his arm. “Who isn’t? If you haven’t noticed, the Slytherin table is a mess of people trying to outdo one another and people trying to be something they’re not.” Narcissa shrugged lightly. “The difference is, we just so whatever we want. We aren’t fake.” |

Narcissa’s hands on Ash’s arm made him feel comfortable. It was nice spending time with her, only because what she was saying was exactly true. They were honest, if not brutally honest. They weren’t interested in following trends, drowning in drama, or making complete fools of themselves. On the contrary, it was far more entertaining to watch everyone else make fools of themselves. “Oh, Teddy?” said Ash casually. Ash was… undecided on how he felt about Theodore Wickham. He was fine, certainly, but Ash sensed something off about him. Theodore wasn’t as genuine as he had Narcissa believing. “That’s interesting. I didn’t know he was around, really. Antisocial.” Ash smirked. “At least I know who my competition is.” |

“I feel bad for him. In a weird way. He has lost a lot.” Narcissa didn’t know how she would have coped if she were in a similar situation. Losing Andromeda would be a big enough blow, and the fact that Bellatrix went to attack her own sister as Ariella’s father held her hostage… Andromeda didn’t ask for that. Narcissa didn’t know how she would feel if Jordanna or Bellatrix bit the dust, she supposed she wouldn’t be shocked in some ways. She would be sad, but only in a way that relatives would feel. They had caused a lot of harm, and she couldn’t see how some could look up to them. Narcissa didn’t seem to understand the logic of those around her, and maybe it was nice to have a no nonsense person to speak to. She didn’t even need to ask for his opinion, he just gave it. “I don’t think you should be worrying about competition.” Narcissa turned to look out of the barn. She could see a few students running around on the grounds, she wondered how many of them had been through horrors because of the Sisterhood. Theodore was a victim of his stupid mother, as was Vera. And as was she, except Narcissa was a victim of her sister’s terrible choices. And there was nothing she could do to pull herself away from them. Well, not yet anyway. |
