alecto carrow

Seventeen. Slytherin. Pureblood. Cat mom. One half to a whole.

“But there was never a time when that decision was ours,” he replied with a shrug and a small smile. “So there’s no use going over what could have been.” Truthfully, Lucius would have been quite content to marry Alecto. He knew her. Not only that, but he liked her, even away from their secret rendezvous. As far as matches went, you were incredibly lucky if you got that. But that wasn’t to be, and Narcissa was a perfectly good match even if she had once just been Bellatrix’s youngest sister to him.

“And your morals are too righteous to have an affair?” he asked, with a slightly teasing smile. Lucius didn’t really see it as an affair because he wasn’t really the one who committed himself to Narcissa; his parents had. And it wasn’t as though he had any illusions about what could come from it, he would, and wanted, to end up with Narcissa. But that didn’t really stop him wanting Alecto now.

Lucius knew Alecto far too well. Questioning her morals made her smile, as if it was an old joke between the two of them. She tilted her head with that smile. “You know morals are for goody-two-shoes,” she chuckled. “Why do you always win an argument?” Alecto questioned, the smile never leaving her face. He was making her feel better about all of this and she no longer felt any sort of guilt. If he was in, she was in.

“Not so bad so,” he replied, smoking a bit in silence as he mulled over his thoughts. In another life this conversation would be completely different. He might have sneaked out with  Alecto rather than just have met her here. But in this life, real life, they were almost strangers these days. “Amycus? Can’t say I’ve seen him.” Though it would be more surprising if he her, he did his best not to.

“I wouldn’t have expected you to have seen him,” Alecto stated simply, chancing a glance over at him. Amycus could hold a grudge far more easily than Alecto could. If it had been her twin who had found Sirius, he wouldn’t have been in for a night of chatting and smoking. “It’s not like we run in the same crowds anymore.” The two had grown up together, but things were very different now.

Sirius gave a mix between a laugh and a scoff when Alecto said she was an angel, looking over at her with a slight smile. “Of course, an absolute angel,” he said sarcastically, teasing her. Teasing Alecto was something he hadn’t done in quite a long time but it was surprisingly easy to fall back into that. Especially since she put her wand away. He looked away again when she asked how he was, silent for a moment as he thought how truthful his answer should be. He wasn’t even sure if she wanted a real answer or had just been desperate for a smoke. “I’m getting by,” he eventually replied with a small shrug. “You?”

“I’ve been better, but I’ve also been worse,” she explained, knowing that it was vague, but it was a way of saying she was doing alright. It was also a way to not let him know how there was a slight chance she missed having him in her life. “At least I’m making appearances, unlike Amycus, who seems to have vanished.”

“Honestly. Another set of eyes for Dumbledore is just another set to hex into oblivion if they don’t cooperate. That girl was lucky she walked away,” Dolores murmured the threat with a slight slur. She was quite honestly a mess, but she was actively trying to stay away from the only people who would truly notice. She took a long sip from her bottle of firewhiskey, before asking, “What’s got you skipping classes on a Monday?” 

“It was a nice day?” Alecto made up with a laugh. “I really didn’t feel like it today. If I looked out a window and see the sun, I probably would have gotten up and left anyways. I did the teachers a courtesy and got myself out of detention.” She peered over to the other Slytherin before asking. “And yourself?”

“Alecto, you pushed me away when I tried to kiss you a few minutes ago,” he said, though it was now accompanied with a small laugh rather than frustration. “What do you want?” he asked, stepping forward again and running his hands down her arms. “I like to think I can read you fairly well but your mixed signals are throwing me off slightly.”

Alecto rolled her eyes. What a typical boy. “There was a time where I wouldn’t have minded being stuck with you for life,” Alecto murmured before looking up to catch his eye. He didn’t have to feel the same. Love wasn’t an emotion that purebloods normally focused on when it came to marrying and breeding. This was the closest she’d believe she’d ever get. A good guy friend who didn’t mind her company.

Even though her mixed signals were throwing him off, he knew how to calm her down. She took a deep breath before shaking her head. “I don’t mean to be,” she offered. “And you know how I feel. It’s confusing to have had this taken away, whatever it was. We can’t be the same unless we call it some sort of affair.”

☹ Name one person they would kill for.

“That is way too simple. My brother, obviously, amongst others.”

Dolores’ expression changed from night to day whenever Alecto spoke up and she merely glanced - bored - at the prefect. She gave her a wave of the hand, “Now shoo. Stop trying to ruin our night.” Whenever the prefect was out of sight, she laughed, “That was almost too easy. They’re getting awfully lazy these days, don’t you think?” The brunette held the bottle to her mouth and took another long sip. 

“They try, but they know better,” Alecto stated. “Could you imagine if prefects actually went through with their empty threats? They would be respected less than they already are.” The brunette couldn’t help the laugh that escaped her throat that was almost downright evil. Authority was bad enough, but people your own age or younger acting like they were better than you? Especially while still school age? Not acceptable.

Of all the people Sirius expected to come and join him, Alecto Carrow would have been towards the very bottom of his list. While it wasn’t that he had never enjoyed her company, recently he had just become rather accustomed to ignoring her. It was easier that way. Not ignoring Alecto, or any of his old friends, usually just ended in a fight. He wasn’t particularly in the mood for one today but it seemed like neither was she. He was about to reply when she spoke again, and instead he laughed, glancing over at her as he took out his cigarettes. “Since you asked so nicely,” he teased, passing her a cigarette.

“Sirius Black, I am an absolute angel,” she protested playfully since they both knew that wasn’t true before lighting the cigarette with her wand. Her wand went immediately back to her pocket, as if to silently say she wasn’t a threat. Alecto wasn’t looking for a fight tonight. She took a puff and allowed some time to pass as they sat in silence. “How are you?” She asked, facing forwards and not really looking at him. She wanted to know, but she didn’t want to start caring all over again either.

“I wasn’t engaged before, Alecto,” he replied, running a hand through his hair in slight frustration. “I don’t think you’re a bitch,” he said, shrugging lightly. Lucius certainly thought Alecto could be a bitch when she wanted to, but he didn’t think that was a core part of who she was. “I don’t mean it like that,” he shook his head, walking forward and closing the gap between them slightly. “You caring in general and you caring if I ended things, are very different.”

“I care-” She began before sighing out loud. She hated saying things like this. Most of the time, a friendship was conveyed automatically through interactions, but with sex involved, it had made things different and on the cautious side of being serious. “I care about us. Whatever this is, us having fun or not,” she explained with a persuasive tilt of her head to silently explain what said fun was.

Sirius wasn’t in a good mood. He wasn’t necessarily in a bad mood either but he certainly wasn’t feeling particularly happy. He was just feeling… moody, for lack of a better word. The end of the year was quickly approaching and it was suddenly occurring to him that he had absolutely no clue what his plan was after graduation. He didn’t know where he was going to live, what job he wanted, or even what he would be slightly interested in doing. Hogwarts had been his life for seven years but even more so since he left his home. He didn’t know what he would do without it. He had always relied on the thought that he’d have his friends, but now, with more of them getting in relationships and whatnot, he wasn’t even sure if that was the same anymore.

This was mostly likely the cause of his mood and explained why he was now alone outside, hoping no one would bother him. He was now laying down on the grass near the lake, smoking as dark fell. Curfew was nearing so he imagined there wouldn’t be that many people about.

[carrow-thealectoone-blog]

“Got another for me to bum off of you?” Alecto asked before laying next to Sirius on the grass. She knew who it was. She knew what might come of this chat. It could be short and sweet. It could be long and truly heart felt. She decided to take a gander once she saw the light of the cigarette in his hand. Before he could respond, she added, “I’m sure that you owe me a few from over the years so don’t get greedy.” The Slytherin hoped that the light quip would make him more willing to speak than ignore her. Alecto Carrow would not just talk to any old Gryffindor. This one was special.

It wasn’t a surprise the size of the attitude that Dolores Umbridge had upon her. The only time she wasn’t as big of a cowbag as usual was when she was tipsy and lately, that was half of the time. The past few months had been rough and she hadn’t quite gotten around to dealing with it. Firewhiskey in hand, the brunette scoffed at the person in front of her. “Who the hell cares what time it is? I can drink whenever I want. In the time you’ve spent judging me, you could have done something productive in your life, so congratulations. Now, unless you’re planning on joining this party, piss off and leave me be.” 

[carrow-thealectoone-blog]

Alecto let out a cackle at Dolores’ response to the prefect trying to preach to the group of female Slytherins. “Besides,” the brunette chimed in with a smirk over the rim of her mug, “it’s the weekend. We can do as we please. You shouldn’t care unless we are late for curfew, which we won’t be.”

“I was being closely watched, Alecto,” Lucius retaliated, leaning against the table behind him. “For some people even seeing us talk to each other was enough motivation to start rumours about us.” He paused, debating whether he should say what he was currently thinking or not. He decided he should, “Nor were we in a relationship. In fact, we had made an effort to keep it from everyone. How was I to know you would care?”

“We’ve evaded rumors before. People say what they want all the time,” Alecto scoffed with a wave of her hand. His next sentiment, however, stung. “You don’t think I care? I know that I can be kind of a bitch, but you know me better than most people. I wouldn’t have done anything with you if I didn’t care about you.”

“Are we really having this conversation right now?” Lucius asked with a sigh. He pulled away from Alecto, walking over to the door and locking it and performing a silencing charm, just to be safe. “Fine, we’ll talk now,” he said, walking towards her again. “I’m sorry for not talking about it with you.”

Alecto was about to say something, afraid that he was going to leave her there, too pissed to have this chat, but he surprised her. “I mean I get it. We both know what’s expected of us from our parents,” she explained to him, feeling a bit uneasy now that she was seeing this side of him. It just wasn’t one she was used to. It made him vulnerable and more human. “I had to learn about the engagement with everyone else and take the hint from the silence.”
