Secret Dinner || Nikolas and Narcissa

[narcissablack-rp-deactivated201]

Narcissa opened her mouth to respond, but quickly closed it when Nik continued. No, she didn’t want to talk about it. And yet there was a part of her that wanted to tell him everything. Not because she believed he would understand or help the problems go away, but because it was so hard to keep all of her emotions bottled up inside. If she could just tell someone, anyone, what had happened, maybe she would feel better. But it was obvious now wouldn’t be her chance to do so. Nikolas seemed to be distracted by his own thoughts at that point. He went from being completely enamored to indifferent in a matter of seconds. It was quite odd. “I’m sorry if the truth made you uncomfortable. I didn’t mean to spoil your dinner.” Her voice sounded oddly sincere. She hadn’t meant to upset Nik, but he did ask her what was wrong.

[magicoverflow-blog]

"You didn't spoil dinner at all. I'm sorry, I just dazed off." Crap. He was letting his thoughts get to him. He needed to turn this night around. Regardless of all the drama that had been happening lately, he hadn't really done much lately. It felt nice to just relax with someone. "Just know you can talk to me whenever you feel ready. I'm always here to listen." He smiled softly and then stood up. "Well, we better start on our walk before it gets too late. Plus i'm sure you need to get back to your dorm soon." He walked across the room and picked up her jacket and then handed it to her. He put on his jacket and grabbed a grey beanie from his drawer. "Alright. Are you ready for this?" He laughed. "I feel like we are part of some secret dinner, and now we have to make it to the lake undercover." He chuckled again softly before realizing how dorky he was beginning to sound. "Sorry, I have a crazy imagination." He smiled and opened the door for Narcissa to exit. "Hopefully the weather isn't too bad."

Glad someone does.. Uh… who are you again?

…I’m Severus? The highly ignored kid in Slytherin.

[magicoverflow-blog]

Uh.. sorry. Just don't think we have ever met. Don't worry your not the only Slytherin sixth year that i've over looked. I don't go around talking to many people.

Secret Dinner || Nikolas and Narcissa

[narcissablack-rp-deactivated201]

Narcissa smiled sweetly at his compliment. She was normally very conscious of her appearance, and so she was worried that if she did not take the time to charm her hair or put on make up she would look horrid. It was very reassuring to hear that Nikolas thought she still looked nice without all that work. “Oh, yes, it’s very nice.” She replied before twirling her fork in the pasta and taking another bite. It wasn’t her favorite, but it was rather good. Still, she probably would have eaten whatever he brought, regardless of how fond she was of it.

When Nik suddenly asked what was wrong, Narcissa blanched. She looked like a deer in the headlights at that point. She had no idea how to answer that. To be honest, she didn’t know exactly what had happened herself. What she did know was awful, though, and she wasn’t sure if she could trust him with such sensitive information. So she made the story a little less grotesque. “We uhm… There was an incident between us. I guess it was sort of like a fight… But I can’t remember everything that happened. I don’t think he can, either. But it was awful. And, well… We haven’t been talking much since then…”

[magicoverflow-blog]

Nik could see the sadness in her eyes. He wanted to tell her what had happened so she could go back to her usual happy self with him, but what would happened if that got out? Nik definitely wasn't gonna risk that, especially not until he received his dark mark. "Oh... I'm sorry to hear that.. I hope he didn't hurt you." A flashback of the night swirled through Nik's head. He knew exactly how hurt she was, and well, no half-hearted conversation was going to help that. "Uh, nevermind. You probably don't want to talk about that." Reality was, Nik didn't want to talk about it. The guilt was slowly eating him alive. He just wanted her to leave. Never have to worry about this again. But was she worth it? Was there a chance that they could be together? Nik just wished this night would end...

Second Chances || Nikolas & Dorcas

Dorcas found herself a nervous wreck, her stomach clenching and unclenching underneath her rapid heart. Her fingers clutched at the blue and white tie around her neck. She could feel a lump in her throat as she walked towards the black lake, pulling her shawl tighter around her small frame. In all honesty, Dorcas wasn’t sure what she was going to say. She didn’t know what she could possibly say after what had happened; she ran away. An excellent dueler, Dorcas wasn’t naive to the Unforgivable Curses. She knew what they were and what they were capable of but actually seeing one performing in front of her? It scared her terribly and she hadn’t known what to do, so Doe ran. And as afraid as she might’ve been, she wanted to talk to Nik again. Make things right. Because after thinking about it, despite what had happened, she really did like him and enjoy what time they had spent together. Dorcas Meadowes was as naive as they came and she believed in things like second chances and love at first sight, so it wasn’t too much of a shock that she was even thinking about him at all- though she’d never tell her friends. Doe bit her lip, leaning against a big Sycamore tree in front of the Black Lake while she waited for him.

[magicoverflow-blog]

Nik made his way towards the Black Lake. He had no clue what he was going to say when he say her. He had been dreading this moment for awhile now. After she ran off that night, Nik didn't know what to do. He had forgotten that she wasn't the typical Slytherin girl, who would sit there and laugh at the cringing human. She would never use a spell like that on anyone, regardless of how much she hated them. Honestly, it would surprise Nik if she could even conjure an annoying tickle out of the Cruciatius Curse. Regardless, that innocent, naive girl had made a way into his brain. He thought of her constantly, and listening to Lockhart speak of her made him sick. He didn't want to loose her. But would she forgive him? Nik doubted it.. He looked up to see Dorcas Meadowes standing by one of the largest trees he had seen. She looked gorgeous, not that it shocked Nik. She always seemed to be well put together. It was cute to Nik. He softly smiled as he arrived at where she was standing. "Hello Ms. Meadowes. You look beautiful as always."

Secret Dinner || Nikolas and Narcissa

[narcissablack-rp-deactivated201]

Narcissa tilted her head to the side when he told her about his hobby, but after a moment she smiled sweetly. While her own parents would never allow her to maintain such interests, she supposed enjoying some form of entertainment from muggles couldn’t be all that bad… Though she herself doubted how entertaining something from nonmagical persons could be. After she started to pile food onto her plate she quickly began eating. She had skipped breakfast and lunch, and only had a chocolate frog to hold her over. Now that there was food available she went at it like a mad woman - though she forced herself to slow down when she remember her company.

“Talking a walk sounds nice. I haven’t been out in a while…” Narcissa started to drift off and shook her head. She needed to get out of this rut, and she certainly wasn’t going to be able to do that if she kept drifting out of reality. When Nik commented on her appearance Narcissa blushed. For a moment she thought he was being sarcastic, since she knew that she didn’t look as nice as she normally did. But when she saw him looking down like a nervous school boy she realized he was sincere. “Oh, well… Thank you Nikolas.” She tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and smiled. “I’ve been sort of under the weather lately. It’s nice to hear that I don’t look completely awful.”

[magicoverflow-blog]

"Then a walk it is." Nik replyed. He was excited that he would be able to spend a little more time with her. "No problem." He tried to hold back his smile at her response. "To be honest, I don't think I would have noticed you were under the weather at all. You, well... you always look great to me.." He hoped he wouldn't freak her out. He was, after all, just being honest with her. The feelings he had for her were awkward. He felt a connection to her that he couldn't explain. Whether it was lust or the beginning of love, he was unsure. Honestly, he always didn't want to find out. He didn't really know what he wanted period, but for now, he would just enjoy the company he had. "I hope you enjoy the pasta." He said trying to keep conversation. "It's one of my favorite dishes personally." The way Narcissa was scarfing down the food was almost enough of a confirmation that she was enjoying the food, but he thought he would ask anyways. "Also... I have been meaning to ask you something..." He knew the answer, but he wondered what exactly she would say. "It might be a sensitive subject.. But, what has been wrong with you? You haven't left your room in days.. And Lucius has been pretty M.I.A. himself. Are you alright? You can talk to me if you need..."

Secret Dinner || Nikolas and Narcissa

[narcissablack-rp-deactivated201]

Narcisssa arrived outside of Nikolas’s dorm room exactly ten minutes after he had invited her. She gave him a weak smile when he greeted her, but it was obvious she wasn’t her usual self. There were hints of blue beneath her eyes, her curls weren’t as bouncy as usual, and her face was ghostly pale. Still, she planned on acting as friendly as possible so that Nik wouldn’t ask questions. Her mouth started to water when she saw all of the food, and she rushed over to the small table that had been set up. She was so interested in the food that she didn’t hear the first half of his sentence.

“Movies? You mean those muggle picture story things?” Narcissa looked at him curiously and tilted her head to the side. She had no idea Avery partook in anything related to muggles, and was definitely surprised to hear him talk about these ‘movies’. “And I would like a butterbeer very much.”

[magicoverflow-blog]

Nik was embarrassed at Narcissa's response to his idea for movies. "Uh.. yea. One of my secret hobbies. They're actually... Amusing. Anyways, help yourself to as many as you want. My father sends me butterbeer like i'm an alcoholic." Nik laughed to himself. How stupid of him to tell her about his liking of muggle movies. She was a proud Slytherin herself, after all. No Slytherin would spend their time watching anything that came from muggles. "Umm, we could go walk down to Lake Black after instead?" He started to mumble his words. Great. He was nervous. Nothing was going the way he planned. He grabbed himself a butterbeer and started chugging it. He then grabbed a plate and another butterbeer and sat down. He looked at her as she continued to eat her food. "Uh.. You look nice tonight by the way." Crap. Had he really said that out loud? Now he was in for it.

Secret Dinner || Nikolas and Narcissa

Nik opened the door to his dorm and let Narcissa in. Inside was a wide variety of snacks and drinks, along side his favorite meal, Chicken Alfredo with mashed potatoes and corn. He hoped she wouldn't freak out after seeing all the food he bought. "Uh.. I hope it's not too much. I just figured maybe you wouldn't mind staying after and uh watching some movies? I don't have any plans.." He realized he should have probably asked her before doing all of this, but it was too late now. "Feel free to help yourself to anything. If your feeling crazy tonight, I also have some butterbeer in the mini fridge." Nik tried to pretend that he didn't know how bad she was feeling. Anyone would be hurt after what Zander forced Lucius to do, but he hoped that maybe he could at least make her feel more comfortable. He felt bad for being the one to lure her into that room. He truly did have feelings for her, but if that was too ever get out, there would be no way he would have a chance. Not like he deserved one...

Do any Slytherins have any food stashed in the dorm?

[magicoverflow-blog]

No problem, Ms. Black. Is there anything specific you would like? I was planning to run out anyways. 

[narcissablack-rp-deactivated201]

Just get me anything! I really am starving. Heh…

[magicoverflow-blog]

As you please. *smiling* Meet me in my dorm in 10 minutes. I won't be gone long. 

[narcissablack-rp-deactivated201]

[magicoverflow-blog]

I have a stash in my room. I could also go out and get you so more, if needed. Uh… That is if you wouldn’t mind eating with me of course.

[narcissablack-rp-deactivated201]

I’d really appreciate that Nikolas. And I wouldn’t mind eating with you, especially since you are going to such trouble for me. Thank you.

I really don’t want to go to the Great Hall, but I’m starving. Does anyone have any food I might be able to pinch from them? Please?

[thedreamingweasley-deactivated2]

Lucius Clone? Please don’t insult me. He is nothing compared to me. But i’ll give you that much. Us Slytherins do share common interests, to say the least.

[thedreamingweasley-deactivated2]

Lets see... you call me weasel... which is a horribly uncreative insult. You're a slytherin. You feel a need to brutally harm me for every insult... the only thing you're lacking is a dellusional girl attached to your hip. You're pretty much Lucius.

[magicoverflow-blog]

Disgusting... Your good. You actually offended me. I don't think anyone wants to be compared to that insult of a Slytherin. For that, i'll let you go today. Congrats.

[magicoverflow-blog]

Well look what we have here! *smirks* The weasel grew some balls. Unfortunately, you aren’t the first to call me those things, and I still could care less this time around. And no, I’d definitely visit. Someone has to make sure you don’t leave there anytime soon. *smirking*

[thedreamingweasley-deactivated2]

-rolls eyes- How many little Lucius clones are wandering this school? I swear, all of you slytherins sound the same after a while.

You really have some nerve to speak to me that way, Lockhart. But luckily for you I have no time to pick on you Ravenclaws today. And I don’t want to embarrass you further today. I’m off, til next time. *nods, smirks, then walks away.*

[its-my-turn-d8-deactivated20120]

 *Sreams after him* Don’t have to much trouble getting it up for Dorcas, or she’ll come running for me!

[magicoverflow-blog]

*turns around* Don't hold your breath, Lockhart. I'm pretty positive your the last person she'd run to regardless. No girl likes a guy who spends more time on his hair then she does. *laughs and continues on his way.*
