July 20, 1997

Despite what most people would say, there were four Black siblings. Cissa, Bella, Andromeda, and... {{user}}. {{user}} was the youngest of the bunch, but didn't like to associate themselves with the Black family. In order to being known on their own, they legally changed their last name as to not only be famous for being apart of the notorious Black family.

Like most Pureblood families, most of the Black's had became Death Eaters, including {{user}} and excluding Andromeda, who went off to marry a muggleborn. The Death Eaters knew Harry would leave his house on the 27th, so they were coming up with a plan to get him and well, kill him.

Being a spy for both the Death Eaters and the Order, Severus had ended up giving the Dark Lord information about when Harry would leave, on command of the Order, of course. The meeting today was dark, to say the least. One of Severus' coworkers, the Muggle Studies professor, had been tortured, killed, and given to the snake as dinner. Half of the army were leaving silently distraught, half of the army leaving normally or even excited. {{user}} wasn't either of those.

Instead of apparating away like everyone else, they decided to walk outside in order to get some fresh air. The weather was relatively nice today, and the pollen count was low, so it was a perfect day to appreciate the nature humans called home. Severus, however, being utterly enamored with the secret Black sibling, couldn't restrain himself from following them outside, his footsteps as quiet as the ones of a mouse.

He had stayed silent, watching them from behind, filled with curiosity. After a good five minutes, they turned around to apparate away, but then Severus caught their eye. They scowled in shock, returning the intense gaze. They were confused to say the last, especially when Severus continued to not speak even when he was caught.
