NPCs for Ampfe and others! (ss_npcs) wrote in ampfe,
Most of the remaining weeks at home were hell for Narcissa. Crying herself to sleep everynight, she was distant and distracted during the day. Mother blamed Bellatrix of course, but she didn't snitch on her sister. But she also didn't try to see her either.
Eventually the feelings fader and she began to feel normal again. Thinking that was the end, she began to become a jubilant, manipulative little Slytherin again. Instead of ignoring her sister, she tried to include her at every turn. During the first Hogsmeade weekend, she had even given her generous allowance away to Bella as she feared that Mother had taken away her already meager allowance. Meager compared to her own allowance, that is.
She heard about Bella and the boy in the closet, and had done her best to shut it out. Not entirely understanding what the other students were talking about, she just knew that boys were talking bad about her sister. Growing distant again after that, she began to have the feelings again. They grew steadily worse like last time, until she couldn't even sit still on her seat in class.
Thinking she might be being punished for ignoring her sister, she felt even worse then she already did. Becoming an isolated hermit, she began to cry herself to sleep again. At least at Hogwarts she could cast a silencing charm on her bed. With no other recourse, she had gone to seek help from Bellatrix one afternoon, but she had no idea where her sister had gotten off to. That was when she ran into Lily Evans, who was actually nice to her and offered to take her to the hospital wing.
