[HP] just lover

Vanessa left the cellar with her schoolbag in her mind to go to class.

She directly locked the double-sided mirror into the drawer without daring to take a look at it, even so, she still felt uneasy.

She was walking on the constantly changing stairs of the castle in a daze, when she turned a corner, someone grabbed her wrist suddenly, and the man said angrily, "Do you want to fall to your death?"

Vanessa came back to her senses and looked at the road she had just walked on. The stairs were broken in two. One part went up, and the other part twisted away. If she had continued to walk just now, she would definitely have stepped on the air.

"Thank you." She was startled belatedly, and turned her head to look at the person holding her wrist. It was Sirius Black. They seemed to have met a little too often recently, so much that it was a bit deliberate.

In the past, if they saw each other 800 meters away, they would walk in the same direction tacitly. For some reason, their relationship has suddenly eased a lot recently, at least they can talk calmly like now.

"Why are you here? Aren't you going to class?" Vanessa looked around, and there was no one on the road. "If you don't leave, you will be late." She was a little anxious.

Sirius looked at her with disgust and said, "So timid? Haven't you ever deducted points for being late?"

Vanessa nodded very seriously: "No."

"...What a good student." Sirius praised her sourly against his will, and asked her in a different tone, "Where are you going at night? Darkness? Forbidden Forest? Or a corner of the castle?"

Vanessa looked at him in surprise: "?? What do you mean?"

"Aren't you going out?" Today is Valentine's Day.Sirius looked at her in disbelief.

"Of course. I have to do my homework, and I have an exam in a few months. I don't want to fail to graduate." Vanessa took it for granted.

The corner of Sirius' mouth twitched inexplicably, and it took a while before he said, "Nerd."

Vanessa: "...You say yes, I have to go to class, this morning is Transfiguration class, I don't want to lose points."

She was about to leave, but Sirius grabbed her wrist again, and Vanessa felt the boy's hot body temperature creeping up her wrist and covering her whole body, which was completely different from when Lucius held her hand. Similarly, Lucius is cold, alienated, reserved and noble, with the restraint of a gentleman, but Sirius is different, that kind of boy stubbornly and firmly controls Vanessa.

So this is how it feels to hold hands normally, she thought dully.

Seeing Vanessa staring blankly at the place where he was holding her wrist, Sirius hesitated for a moment, but still didn't let go.

"I know a very interesting place, are you interested?" He drawled his tone and said, "I can guarantee that a good student like you may not have found it in Hogwarts for seven years, don't you?" You want to regret not having a chance after graduation?" He blinked his beautiful gray eyes and said triumphantly, "Would you like me to take you there? Just ask me."

Vanessa opened her eyes wide and looked at the junior in front of her. She couldn't help but smiled and said, "You want to take me there, why should I beg you?"

Being exposed, Sirius tugged his tie a little annoyedly and said, "Will you go, tell me quickly, you don't really want to be late for class, do you?"

Vanessa calculated the time in her heart, without hesitation, she said to him: "I will think about it carefully, go to class first, and talk about it later."

After finishing speaking, she broke away from his hand, turned around and walked up the stairs that had come back, and ran quickly towards the classroom.

Sirius stood where he was, staring at the empty palm for a while, then reluctantly strolled over to the History of Magic classroom with his schoolbag on his back.

He had already started class when he arrived. Professor Binns stared blankly ahead. Sirius walked in generously, sat in the seat Potter had left for him, threw down his schoolbag and said, "Did you roll the roll for me?" ?”

Remus turned around and said, "Yes, Professor Binns didn't notice, but where have you been?"

Sirius snorted and said nothing, as if he had thought of something, his usually cold gray eyes contained a trace of anticipation.

In the evening, after the last class, the students cheered and ran out of the classroom, rushed into the auditorium to eat, and planned to go on a date right after eating, without wasting any time.

Vanessa was helplessly squeezed into a seat, and she couldn't find Angie for a long time. Young girl... sincere love is really enviable.

Thinking of the double-sided mirror locked in the drawer, Vanessa was a little bit hungry. She poked the pie on the plate with a fork, and suddenly something hit her on the head.She was startled, it was a ball of paper.

Picking up the ball of paper, she looked forward, on the Gryffindor long table, Sirius Black was leaning on it and looking at her lazily, she suddenly remembered the encounter in the corridor before, she glanced around, but no one noticed, Just opened the paper ball.

There is a line on it that reads: Wait for me at the back door of the auditorium after dinner.

Vanessa thought for a while, put the ball of paper into her pocket, and nodded to Sirius opposite.

"Peter, where are you going?" Seeing that Pedilu was sneaking away before he finished his meal, Potter couldn't help but grabbed him by the collar, wanting to find out, "Could it be that you are an invitation to like?" girl?" He said curiously, "Are you asking Albert of Slytherin?"

Peter shook his head nervously: "No, no, I'm just, I'm just a little tired, and I want to go back and rest early."

Porter was rejected by Evans without a doubt, but he wasn't in a bad mood because he was 100% sure that Evans said no to anyone else, especially the snot-nosed one.

Looking across the long table at the little bat with its head buried in its meal, Potter snorted and said to Peter: "Aren't you going to join our night tour plan tonight? You know it's Valentine's Day today, go give those lovers It's not too much fun to cause havoc and scare them!"

Seeing Potter's eagerness to try, Lupine sighed helplessly, and Sirius said before Peter Pedillo could speak, "I have something to do tonight, you three should act."

"Brother, what did you say?" Potter looked at Sirius in surprise, clutching his heart as if he had been abandoned, "Could it be that you're going on a date? Oh, please don't tell me you already have a girlfriend, This will make me sad, we agreed to be single together!"

Lupine couldn't help but interjected, "Sirius receives no fewer love letters on Valentine's Day every year than Albert in Slytherin. If he wants to get out of singleness, it's only a matter of minutes."

Potter injured Sirius' shoulder and said, "Remus can't be telling the truth, Sirius, my good buddy, are you really going to abandon us?"

At this moment, most of the auditorium had finished eating, and Vanessa got up to leave. Sirius glanced at it, hurriedly pushed Potter away, and left "I'm not going tonight" before running away.

Peter Pedilu looked at his back, even though he was often a little dull and silly, but he could also see that the direction he left was the direction Vanessa had just walked.

Peter froze for a moment, then slowly withdrew his gaze, tangled his hands, and said to the sighing Potter, "Then, I'm leaving too. I'm really tired, and I want to go back and rest first."

He refused to go out with the group of four for the first time, but he was not as calm as Sirius. He was a little afraid that Potter would be upset or stop him, so he ran very fast, disappearing in the blink of an eye like a mouse.

Potter stared dumbfounded at the direction in which he disappeared, and murmured: "One day, if Hawkwarts also holds a race in addition to Quidditch, you remember to remind me to let Peter participate, Remus."

Lupine stood up and said, "Then the two of us are still going to be 'couple killers'?"

"Of course! Why not?" Potter laughed mischievously.

At the back door of the auditorium, Vanessa didn't wait long when someone grabbed her hand. Sirius Black stopped panting and said to her, "I'm late, sorry, let's go now." After speaking, Just holding her hand and leaving, Vanessa struggled a few times and didn't break away. If there was no one here except them, she would definitely not let him do this.

When Peter Pedilu chased them out, he saw them walking away hand in hand in unusual harmony (?). He stared at the two of them with a face full of disappointment, turning into a black spot little by little, his eyes gradually hollowed out, hanging on his body. The side hand clenched into a fist inside the robe.

Sirius is the eldest son of the Black family. He has attracted attention since he entered school. He is tall, handsome, and has good academic performance. The girls all like him.

If Vanessa chooses him, then he must have no chance.

Sirius...

Sirius Black...

Peter gritted his teeth, shrunk his head and left here step by step. Every step seemed to be on the edge of a knife, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

In a girl's dormitory in the Slytherin cellar, the double-sided mirror locked in a drawer was hot and hot, but no one picked it up. It lay there alone, as if it had been abandoned by its owner. Very bleak.

On the side of the double-sided mirror, Lucius sat on the sofa, staring at the mirror, tapping the mirror with his finger wearing the silver snake ring from time to time, once, twice, ten times, twenty times, but no one answered.

She didn't bring it with her.

Or rather, she tossed it aside.

Or, there was another possibility, a possibility that he was least willing to imagine.

She's out on a date.

As long as he thought of this, Lucius felt that his whole heart was being pulled together, and the feeling was not much better than Cruciatus.

He tapped the mirror unconsciously. In the dark, luxurious, and empty Malfoy Manor, he was the only one sitting on the black sofa in the living room. He stared at the invisible mirror, not knowing what he was fighting for, but I just couldn't stop the action that seemed to be humiliating myself.

Hogwarts has many secret rooms and passages.

Vanessa had heard of it, but had never seen it.

She is a good student, but she cherishes her life. Although she is about to graduate, her understanding of Hogwarts is still limited to the place where she studies and rests every day.

She never knew that there was such a short way to the Astronomy Tower. She was led by Sirius through the secret passages, looking around curiously, trying to remember the entrances and exits of all the secret passages.

Finally, they stopped under a cupola on the side of the Astronomy Tower. Sirius pointed to it and said to her, "Close your eyes, count to five silently, and then look up."

Vanessa was excited by him, and the discovery along the way had already made her very satisfied with tonight's activities, but now that she was asked by him like this, she was looking forward to what she would see later.She closed her eyes obediently, and counted silently in her heart. When she closed her eyes, the boy held the wand in his hand, pointed at the dome above his head, and whispered complex and ancient spells.

As the oldest pure-blood family, Black has many spells that Hogwarts cannot learn in his family's collection of books.

The lion's share of this is offensive black magic, but there's no denying that there's some flashy magic, too.

Sirius was more interested in the latter.

So when Vanessa silently counted to five and opened her eyes to look up, she saw that the dome on the Astronomy Tower that had previously blocked her view was gone, replaced by a starry sky that seemed close at hand, all of which needed tools to The clearly visible constellations are within reach at this moment, she was stunned, and raised her hand joyfully, before she touched them, someone grabbed her.

"Don't move around," Sirius scolded, "You're going to mess it up."

"Oh, oh, okay." Vanessa was afraid of ruining the beautiful scenery, and honestly withdrew her hand, not realizing that he was still holding her.

"Look there." Sirius said suddenly, pointing to a corner of the starry sky, "Do you know what that is?" he asked.

Vanessa looked over and froze there.

After a while, she nodded and said, "I know."

"What's that?" he continued.

Vanessa stared at the star in the constellation Canis Major and said softly, "Sirius."

It's Sirius.

Sirius laughed, his handsome young face shining under the starry sky.

"Yes." He said confidently, "It's Sirius." He pointed to the star and said, "That's me."

Vanessa will never forget in her life that on the night of Valentine's Day in her seventh grade, Sirius Black stood under the starry sky close at hand, pointing to the Sirius star and saying "that's me".

When she returned to the dormitory, Angie hadn't come back yet. She should have been away at night, which was normal. Ever since she started dating her boyfriend, she had to come back every Valentine's Day in the morning.

Vanessa sat alone on the bed in the dormitory for a long time before she felt her hot cheeks cool down a little bit.

Then, she got out of bed, went to the cabinet, squatted down, and opened the locked drawer.

The double-sided mirror lay quietly inside, without any trace of it being continuously heated.

She slowly took out the mirror, and as soon as she put it in her hand, mist flashed on it, and a person's face appeared.

There was no light on the dark figure, but it did not prevent her from seeing the noble and arrogant handsome face clearly.

"Are you finally back?"

Lucius was on the other side of the double-sided mirror. He didn't mention how long he had been waiting, and how long he had tapped his fingers on the mirror. He turned to face her. Looking at her pretty face with no emotion, he wished to lose the value of this face. An expensive mirror.

"Are you happy on a date?" He asked, with no desire for knowledge, and the corners of his mouth were raised, trying to maintain his self-esteem. "Should I not give you this mirror today? I think in your heart, also You don't want to see me much, do you?"

When he said this, there was jealousy, reluctance, and... humbleness in his tone that even he couldn't ignore.

Vanessa froze for a moment, stared at him without saying a word, he didn't look very good, his face was tired, his blond hair was loose on his shoulders, the luxurious and huge Malfoy Manor looked gloomy and deserted during the day, and he sat there alone , there is no sound at all, as if abandoned by the whole world.

How could it be, this must be an illusion, he is the head of the Malfoy family, with the most precious blood in the wizarding world, how could he be abandoned by the whole world.

"It doesn't matter whether I want to see you or not." Vanessa finally opened her mouth, and said rationally, "Mr. Malfoy, I will send this mirror back to you. I think because of our relationship, I didn't use it. necessary."

Lucius repeated, "There's no need to use it?"

He laughed at himself, that kind of smile was too eye-catching on his face, and Vanessa couldn't ignore it.

She said as calmly as possible: "Isn't it so?"

"Of course not." Lucius restored his noble and arrogant mask as quickly as possible, and said with a chuckle, "It's very necessary, I need to use it to convey information to you at any time."

"...Send a message?" Vanessa frowned.

"You can't leave my side anymore." Lucius seemed to be announcing something, and when he said the news, he felt a lot easier.

Vanessa felt chills down her spine, she bit her lip and asked him, "Why?"

"Why?" He spoke contemptuously, with a hint of cruelty, "Of course it's because of that lord."

Unexpectedly, Lucius would mention this person, so Vanessa straightened her face and said solemnly, "What happened?"

Lucius saw her change in an instant, if she was in front of him now, he would definitely pinch her chin and ask her why she was so fickle, but he can't do it now, he can only be silent and bear , and explain it.

"He can't wait, the slow progress makes him dissatisfied, and he plans to catch a few models to teach those who don't know good and bad." Lucius stated the facts indifferently, "You and your mother are in danger middle."

Vanessa reluctantly said: "...I think the witches of the numb breed should be more dangerous."

Lucius twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, smiling conceitedly and falsely: "Of course. Of course a bitch wizard is dangerous. But a blood traitor who married a Muggle and her children seem even more hateful." He recalled the adult speaking The tone and expression at the time, the tone of voice was cruel, "They have abandoned their proud bloodlines, and they are willing to degenerate and don't know what to do. They are more hateful than those wizards who themselves came from the hemp species."

The lord used the word "Mudblood" in the second half of his sentence, but Lucius' self-cultivation made him disdain to spit out such insulting and dirty words, which made him feel that he was detrimental to his nobility. identity of.

He stared at the dazed girl in the mirror with his gray-blue eyes, and continued: "Someone recommended some families in front of that adult as the first choice for the 'warning campaign', including you and your mother." He said, "You should think about who you have provoked recently, and why someone sent your name to him."

Vanessa said almost immediately: "Who have I provoked recently? What does Mr. Malfoy think? Is there anyone else besides you?" She stood up, tightly holding the double-sided mirror in her hand, and great fear enveloped her, She took a breath and said, "Is it from the Black family?"

Lucius denied it with a cold face: "No one will be Black, and you will not be exposed to him because of me. On the contrary..." He slowed down his face, and said, "I have already put you out of that place." You crossed off this list."

Vanessa was startled, and looked at him opposite the mirror in astonishment: "What did you say? Removed?"

The mark on his arm seemed to be aching, and Lucius said expressionlessly, "Are you happy? Do you feel like you've survived a catastrophe?"

Happy?

Not to mention.

After the catastrophe, there is really a surviving life.

Vanessa looked at Lucius with complicated emotions. He has graduated for a while, and he seems to have matured a lot all of a sudden. He no longer has a faint student spirit. He inherited the most prestigious Malfoy family. The flower-like appearance of the mountain is more and more repulsive to people thousands of miles away. Even if she sees him from a distance, Vanessa will feel ashamed and feel that she is just a speck of dust.

"No one will mention you in front of him in the future." Lucius stared intently at Vanessa with a complicated expression, and said softly, "As long as I am alive, no one will be able to do that."

An understated tone, but an extremely important promise, Vanessa looked at him absent-mindedly, and he continued calmly: "But I am not a philanthropist, Vanessa, I need you to stay by my side, I will protect you, no one can hurt you, and your mother." Loughton, he continued to seduce, "You can do whatever you want, don't you want to go to St. Mungo to be a therapist? I It can help you apply, and you can go to work directly after graduation.”

Vanessa was surprised that he still knew this, and she couldn't react to his almost compromising tone.

"You can do whatever you want, you can ask for anything, as long as you stay by my side."

Lucius is actually a very cruel person. He only cares about the interests of himself and his family. He doesn't have the word pity in his heart, and he doesn't have much respect for life. Anyone who hinders him or touches his interests, he will do whatever it takes. Clear the way.

He finally chose to follow Voldemort, or to put it another way, he chose the side that could give the Malfoy family more benefits. He studied at Hogwarts for seven years, and he knew very well what kind of person Dumbledore was. Existence can maximize the power and money status of the Malfoy family in the magic world. Of course, he has to pay some price, but once successful, the reward is unlimited.

Of course, he also reserved a retreat, and if he failed in the end, he also had a way to protect himself and his family, otherwise he would not choose to print this mark.

He never thinks he is a good person, he always puts interests first, even if he hates Muggles, he does not reject doing business with Muggles, he is the first pure-blood nobleman in the magic world to extend his hand to the Muggles world, this is also The reason why the huge property of the Malfoy family can grow richer and richer at a rate that other families cannot understand.

He is good at playing tricks, but with Vanessa, all his tricks seem to be ineffective, or he can't do it at all, he is like a boy, using the most primitive way to lure her into submission, throwing One reason after another made her unable to refuse.

"But..." Vanessa was silent for a long time, slowly raised her head, met his gray-blue eyes again, and said in a low voice, "Aren't you afraid that the adult will find out that you are protecting me? This will bring you A catastrophe. Or, the members of the Black family...except for Miss Black, do other people know about this relationship? Have you ever thought about these things? Will they tolerate your behavior?"

All her worries, or excuses, are not worth mentioning in his opinion, and he said with disdain: "They must tolerate it, you don't have to doubt it. As for that adult..." He lowered his eyes and clenched them tightly Cane said, "He won't ask for guilt. He needs me, and he will give me face."

Vanessa didn't see through the hesitation in his last sentence.

She wanted to turn off the double-sided mirror, but before she could do that, Lucius said again, "Aside from these, I need you to do another thing right away."

Vanessa looked at him again.

"Since your mother has divorced that Muggle, you don't have to continue to use that Muggle father's surname anymore. When we meet next time, I hope you will already be Vanessa Wilson."

After finishing speaking, he took the initiative to cut off the contact. Vanessa had no idea that what he said tonight violated Lucius' principles. He put the double-sided mirror on the table, and before he knew it, he broke out in a cold sweat .

"I'm mad."

He murmured, "But that's fine. That's fine."

He stood up, leaning on his cane, and went to do what he had to do right away.

He's going to keep his promises, all his promises to Vanessa.

He will try his best to protect her from that lord's attack range, and also ensure that if someone really uses Vanessa to deal with him, he will be able to save her from that lord as soon as possible.

If it was just a plaything lover, mixed blood or pure blood, that adult might not care, after all, his father, Abraxas Malfoy, also had mixed blood among the girls he slept with.

But Vanessa is different.

He knew it in his heart.

Sooner or later others will know.

If a normal person encounters this kind of dilemma, he might let his loved one stay away from this inevitable war, but Lucius couldn't do it.He admits that he is selfish and inferior, even if he can't give her a legitimate identity, even if he can only use despicable means to seduce and blackmail her, but the moment he sees his changed patron saint, he swears, never again Won't let her leave his side.

The author has something to say: The part about looking at the stars really touched me
