Narcissa had already been dressed before Alecto and herself had made plans to go shopping, her head was all over the place recently and this would be the distraction she needed. Plus the fact that she needed some more clothes anyway, so it was the perfect opportunity.
She exited the common room and took the long way around to where she was meeting Alecto, outside the great hall. The corridors were silent and the only sound was the faint click of her heels on the stone flooring. It was only when she looked down at her watch that she realised that she was running a few minutes behind. She quickened her pace a little and she was outside the great hall within minutes.
She noticed that Alecto was already there and rushed over to greet her. “Sorry I’m a little late ‘Lecto. I took the long way here” she explained.
Narcissa arrived just a few minutes late, interrupting Alecto’s train of thought. She shook her head, smiling softly. “Don’t worry about it.” All that mattered was her best friend was here and seemed to be in a reasonably good mood. “So are you going to tell me who or what upset you before or not?” She questioned, beginning on her way to the exit. “Because you know whoever it is I can assure you I’ll kick their asses and you’ll receive no more trouble from them ever again.” Alecto let out a laugh as she motioned a karate chop.
