Angel walked into the bank. She was there to demand her Aunt and Uncle's money, even if it wasn't in the will. "Excuse me, I am here to withdraw from Belinda Simons' account," she said to one of the goblins.
"I'm sorry Miss but we cannot let you access that account. Mr Simons' account either," it said back in return.
"What do you mean I can't access that account? They were my family!"
The goblin looked frustrated. "Look we cannot let you access that account unless you have a signed document."
Angel groaned and sat down on one of the benches.

Narcissa watched the girl.
She almost...almost felt pity for her.
"Excuse me father," She said politely to her father, then made her way over to the bench, and sat next to the girl, at a distance of course, folding one leg over the other in a ladylike way.
"You know, for a young lady such as yourself, that was a rather inappropriate display." She remarked. "May I ask what brought it on?"

"My Aunt and Uncle recently died and these USELESS creatures won't let me access their accounts. I'm Angel Simons, you are?" Angel asked, still fuming mad.

"Narcissa Black." Narcissa replied, smoothing out a fold in her skirt. "Why won't they let you access their accounts?"

"Something about not having a will or signed document! I'll tell them where to shove their documents," Angel almost yelled. "Pleasure to meet you Miss Black."

"The pleasure's all mine." Narcissa replied dryly. "Do you not have immediate access because of the bloodline? If you're the last living relative, everything is automatically yours. Document or no."

"That's what I tried to tell them! Ignorant little pests. Why are you here? I don't mean to be rude or anything but..." Angel asked.

"I'm running errands with my father." Narcissa nodded over to where her father was standing straight backed and dignified as ever, talking to a goblin.

"Wow, he looks very strict. Still I guess that's a good thing if you want to run a good household," Angel said fairly. "He also looks rather important, where does he work?"

"He is rather important." Narcissa said proudly, but dodged the question of where he worked. "And he is very strict. But you're right, he does run a good household. He knows a lot of people, and I suppose we benefit from that."

"You must be very proud of him!" Angel smiled, ignoring the dodged question. "He must be proud of you too."

"I am proud to be a Black." She nodded. "Although I have never really given him anything to be proud of. Besides planning a respectable pureblood marriage, although he completed those plans for me. And you? You said your aunt and uncle passed away? Were they you're only family?"

"Yes, my mother and father were killed by aurors. They were death eaters! I never really knew them because they were always on missions and such. You have given your father loads of things to be proud of! You're a very beautiful girl, in the non-gay way, and are very proper and a true lady," Angel smiled.

"It has been drilled into my head from a young age. Even if I didn't want to be a proper young lady, I doubt I'd have much of a choice." Narcissa said, althought allowed herself a small and rarely genuine smile at the compliment, "My parents are often away too. For the same reason."

"I wish parents wouldn't become people like that, only for the constant worry about being caught and murdered. Black! I knew I know that name from somewhere! Your father was in a picture with mine at training I think... How is Lucius? You two make a fine pair, even if you don't get a choice," Angel grinned.

"I do not worry. What comes, we take. It's how it will always be. Oh yes, Simons, I recognise the name now you mention it." Narcissa paused before replying. "Lucius is...fine. We scarcely know each other. I can think of others I'd rather be with, if I had a choice, and I'm sure the same applies to him, but as I don't and as he doesn't, we'll just have to make do."

"I'm sure you will learn to live with each other, maybe not love, but certainly live with each other. What comes, we take. It's how it will always be. That is a very good saying, where did you hear it or did you make it up?" Angel asks.

"I don't recall. I seem to remember my mother saying it to me, once. But I could be wrong."

"How is your mother?" Angel asked. "She must be very wise if she said that!"

"My mother is very quiet. She doesn't say much but when she does it often makes sense."

"Sensible woman," Angel remarked.

"Extremely." Narcissa replied.

"One can only hope." Narcissa smiled slightly in return.

"Yes, one can only hope. So have you thought about any children?" Angel smiled.

Post by Narcissa Black on Jun 5, 2007 14:57:58 GMT
"I expect children are in the future." Narcissa smiled in a strained way, not at all sure this was what she wanted. "Continuing the family blood lines, and such. Although I am not so good with children myself."

"Well, I'm sure Lucius and you're parents will help out. Hopefully your family will wait until you're ready," Angel smiled softly.

Narcissa smiled again, in the same strained way, doubting that very much.
Her family weren't the sort of family who did that.
"I'm sure."

"Or even if you aren't ready I'm sure you'll love you child or children anyway," Angel said.

"That I really am sure of." Narcissa said honestly.
