Chapter 11

Most of the ride back to Nevermore consisted of Bellatrix fidgeting with things in the car, even down to the gear stick .
"What's this stick do?"
"No don't touch that!" The blonde exclaimed as she quickly placed her hands on top of it not for the woman to pull it out of gear.
"I wasn't going to break it. I was just curious as to what it does, 'Tis all." The ravenette held her hands up before turning to look out the window, biting her tongue. No one ever dared snap at her like that, otherwise they'd get snapped by her.  The blonde glanced at the ravenette, feeling slightly bad for snapping.
"It's a gear stick, it allows me to change the gear. So I'd change up through the gears as the speed of the car increases and down when you need more power from the engine." Larissa explains, glancing at the puzzled woman beside her, before focusing back on the road.
"I can show you what I mean another time if you'd like. I could teach you, It's not hard once you get the hang of it."
"Oh no love, you don't have to teach me. I have absolutely no intention of ever driving one of these things. I was just intrigued by how it all works. Though I wouldn't object to another ride. It's not as bad as I thought, though I must admit I'm not a fan of the so called seatbelt." The woman glanced down at the belt, and gave it a tug.

"There's a time and place to be tied up, and travelling in a claustrophobic box with wheels isn't one of them." Larissa's heart stopped as she quickly glanced in the rear view mirror at her student, but much to her relief he'd put headphone on, and his head was moving slightly to the beat of his music.
A chuckle caught the blondes attention as she shot a look to the smirking woman beside her.
"Relax love, no need to look like a dear caught in headlights. I noticed him putting them on about 5 minutes ago." The blonde glanced at her before turning her attention back to the road, the wicked twinkle in her dark eyes certainly didn't go unnoticed.

The trio arrived at the large school and the boy thanked his headmistress before quickly making a disappearance. The dark woman watched the boy as he scurried away, there was something peculiar about him, what...she wasn't quite sure...yet.
The blonde reached for her little bag, and before she had chance to blink her door was open and a pale slender hand was offered to help her out of the car.
Larisa hesitated for a moment, not entirely sure what was going on. She eventually accepted the other woman's kind gesture and stepped out of the car.
"Thank you." The blonde smiles, the ravenette merely shrugged as she closed the door behind her.
"So shall we go inside?"
"Lead the way." Bella stepped aside allowing the blonde to pass. The dark woman fell into step beside the blonde as they headed inside the building, and for a moment, as she glanced around and took in her surroundings she had a flashback of her time as a student. That was some years ago she mused, and not for the first time she'd wondered how different her life would have been had she not gone down her families path.

Larissa noticed the raven haired woman taking in every inch of the main entrance and couldn't help but wonder what thoughts were running through her mind. After all she knew very, very little of this unique beauty beside her. And as it were this marvellous woman clearly knew very little about the current world evolving around her. She had no knowledge of what a phone or car was, and they've been a huge part of most people's existence since their invitation, and their popularity only grows day by day. She hadn't met a single person who doesn't use at least one of these on the daily let alone never heard of their existence at all. It was almost as if she'd come from a completely different world and generation all together.

"If you'd like I can show you around after we've had our chat?"
"Oh that won't be necessary Love, I'm afraid it'll bring up far too many memories of my own childhood." The woman smiles, though a lingering sadness lurked in her dark eyes.
"In that case my office is this way." The blonde heads towards the large staircase Bellatrix in tow. Once they arrived at the office Bellatrix hesitated before stepping inside the large dimly lit office. The first thing that caught her attention was the large empty fireplace.
"I can light it if you'd like, I didn't bother this morning because I wasn't here." The blonde made her way towards the fire place, feeling around the mantle for the lighter.
"I could of sworn I put it there last night." The blonde furrows her brows.
"Might I help?" The ravenette asks and the blonde looks at her.
"By all means. Though I wouldn't ask where I last remember having it, because that's right here and it's evidently not here."
"I don't even know what it is you're looking for Love, but I can light the fire."
"Oh, do you have a spare lighter on you?"
"All these foreign words Love, I know none of them." The ravenette strode towards the fire place and with one wave from a crooked stick the woman pulled out of thin air the fire was roaring, it's flames dancing gracefully, casting its flickering shadows on the wall.

Larissa remained silent, trying to figure out what was going on, and why this woman knew so little about everyday devices, like a lighter for crying out loud.
"There we go Love. Now if you tell me what this lighter is I might be able to help you find it." She turns to face the puzzled blonde.
"It's a little- it doesn't matter. I can get another one." The blonde changed her mind, finding out just who this woman was and what she is, is far more important than finding an old lighter.
"Won't you have a seat? I'll get us something to drink."
