Who: Bellasix
What: Caprica gets an interesting text message from Lily and heads to Bella's to check it out.
When: Monday evening
Where: Bella's place
Rating: PG for now
Status: In progress

Caprica had been smart enough to just place her phone aside and watch the train wreck while all of this was happening. She very rarely responded and only when the text message amused her, but on Monday night she got a message that was quite alarming. She would have called Bellatrix herself, but considering that the phones weren't working very well she decided to go over there instead.

As Caprica knocked on Bellatrix's door she wasn't entirely sure how she was feeling. She didn't know the extent of the damage yet and if her name had gotten involved at all. She decided to remain calm until she knew more.

Twice, twice she'd tried to send something to Caprica. The first had been an accident and the second to warn her, and now everything was collapsing around her and it hadn't even been on purpose!

Bellatrix had smashed a vase and taken a fireplace poker to a bookcase, and was working out her anger on an expensive kitchen chair when she head the knock at the door.

She answered, still holding the fireplace poker. When she saw Caprica she couldn't decide if she was angry or happy to see her.

	If Caprica had been expecting anything when she saw Bellatrix, it wasn't seeing her answer the door looking a complete mess and holding a fireplace poker in her hands. The woman was obviously upset about something. And angry. Very, very angry. Caprica just pressed her lips together and raised her eyebrows at Bellatrix and waiting for her to say something.

	The poker hit the ground with a clatter, and Bella reached to pull Caprica in, looking around as if she'd expected the woman to have been followed. "Everyone knows. About me. Not about you, but Regulus suspects." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Caprica was taken a little off guard when Bellatrix reached out to hold her, but she recovered easily and put her arms around the other woman. Then it came. The revelation of just how bad the situation was.

She didn't know how she was supposed to react to this. A part of her wanted to comfort Bellatrix, but another part was extremely upset.

"Oh my God," was all she could get out and Caprica very rarely took the Lord's name in vain.

Bellatrix hugged her, then pulled her in enough to close the door before they were seen, "It was this bloody network problem! Messages went were they weren't supposed to go."

She seemed to have calmed remarkably by Caprica's presence, even if her distress was screaming like a storm beneath her skin. She'd thought she'd be fine if it got out. She thought she wanted that. Now she wasn't so sure.

"I could contain mine with our parents as a little joke gone awry, but Potter sent it to damn near everyone!"

	Caprica pulled away from Belatrix just enough so she could look at the other woman in the eyes as she spoke. Her head was spinning. She still didn't know what to do in this situation. "What are you going to do?" Caprica asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Blackmail father, if it comes to it. He'd do nothing if he thought I would spill everything he's done," She replied, eyes darkening. "I don't know about the others. I could deny it but that only makes people dig deeper, lovey. I should ignore it. Or perhaps be seen with a man."

She rolled her eyes at the thought. Her type tended to be 'homocidal maniac' when it came to men.

	Caprica was finding it hard to look Bellatrix in the face. So instead of trying she pushed past the other woman and made her way into the kitchen so she could get them both a glass of wine. It would calm Bellatrix and Caprica just needed a glass. "I think it's a good idea to be seen with a man," Caprica said even though she knew it would make Bellatrix mad.

	"Is it? What if we didn't need to hide any more? Think of the press, they'd eat it all up and if the 'empire' handled it right they might just get more bloody converts!" Bellatrix didn't follow her into the kitchen, instead clearing off the couch and plopping onto it. It felt like the ice was cracking underneath her, "More lies, is that what we want?"

Caprica considered Bella's words as she poured a large glass of red wine for the both of them. She made her way into the sitting room and handed one to her, pressing her lips together.

'I'm not sure it works that way, Bellatrix," Caprica replied as she took a seat. "You and I know that it's God who has brought us together in this way... for me to share my gift with you, but the rest of the world? They won't understand that."

Bellatrix took the glass, and drank a third of it in one go. She set it down on the table and rested her arms on her knees, "Not everyone is so close minded, Six. Tell me what to do?"

She looked up at her finally, a plea in her eyes, "I'll do anything you ask, just so I don't lose you."

She didn't want to think about Caprica sharing her gift with anyone else. It hurt and enraged her too much.

	"The people who follow the church are that close minded," Caprica reminded, crossing her legs. "Find a rich man in the church. Date him." Marry him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bellatrix sneered. The people who followed the church were no better than mudbloods in her estimation. The thought startled her, and the sneer faded into a confused frown. She wasn't like that, she wouldn't be like that. Her head shot up, "Are you daft?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'm not going to turn into my mother," Bellatrix protested. "I'm married in my dreams, but it's not out of love. He's not the one I love." She picked up her wine again, her hand shaking in a growing anger, "Lovey, I can't fake it like you can. I can't pretend to date some man." But she'd said she'd do anything. She just hadn't expected that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Caprica grew very quiet as she held her glass of wine. She didn't like what she was hearing and if Bellatrix was refusing to make this go away then Caprica had no choice but to take no chances and move on with her life. It hurt, but Caprica wasn't an idiot. "I'm sorry you feel that way," she said cooly before placing her glass aside and standing up to leave. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bellatrix grabbed for Caprica's hand. Anxiety crept throughout her and settled in her stomach, "Caprica, wait. I didn't say I wouldn't try!" Don't let it end like this, don't let it end! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"If you won't fix this then I will," Caprica replied, wrenching her hand away from Bellatrix. It was harsh, but sometimes that was the only way to get through to her sister. Caprica gave Bellatrix a last glance and then headed for the door again. She was done here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Caprica didn't look behind her, she didn't even respond in any way. She just left the house and Bellatrix standing there. She had work to do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bellatrix came to the only conclusion she could. Caprica had lied about loving her. Something snapped, and the death eater started to laugh hysterically. (Reply to this) (Parent)
