Summary: Bellatrix has little patience for her sister.
"I don't know why I put up with you!" Bellatrix told Narcissa, exasperated. She threw down her quill and glared. "You're so stupid, Cissy!"
Narcissa's lip trembled. "I'm sorry."
Bellatrix glared. Narcissa tried a different technique.
"Please," she whispered, fluttering her eyelashes. "Love me, Bella…"
Bellatrix sighed impatiently, then reached over to the hourglass on Narcissa's desk that her parents made her use to measure how long she had been doing homework for. She turned it over, then looked at her little sister.
"You have until the sand runs out to prove that you're good enough for me," she said.
