Ink in Paper - Regulus Black

I'm back! 

My musical is in a few weeks, so I'm struggling a bit with time, people. Sorry for the wait. And I had such a bad writer's block with this chapter.

COMMENT PLEASE!

Leticia stared in absolute astonishment.

Regulus Black was handsome, but Orion Black was absolutely enthralling to look at, especially wearing a dark charcoal suit with grey details in the sleeves, silver tie looking positively proper. He looked like he had been painted on the simple and modest sofa of the Lupin household, somehow looking very comfortable and out of place at the same time.

"Lord Black, your tea," Luna said.

"Yes, thank you, Miss Lupin," he said, voice distracted as he watched the television with interest.

Remus licked his teeth under his lips in silence, watching his sister serve the man tea without hesitation before looking away and towards the television, where Leticia's chosen film was going by without anyone actually watching it. He hated how comfortable Orion looked with someone serving him without his request, and how he had given Luna a small smile, like one would to a waitress in a restaurant.

"Father, hm... Miss Lupin and I are going over there," Regulus said, nodding to the side.

Orion looked over, eyes stopping at the stairs.

"Certainly, you don't mean –"

"No, Father. Outside. We're going to the back of the house, in the sun," Regulus corrected, cheeks blushing as he frowned, looking affronted at the mere implication of his father's mind. "We'll just... be there. The door is made of glass."

Orion's eyes wandered to Remus, who didn't look away from the television, refusing to give him any signal.

"Alright," Orion said, voice hesitating. "Behave yourself, Regulus."

"Of course, Father," Regulus said.

Luna seemed to be struggling to hide her smirk as she excused herself politely and reached for Regulus' hand, pulling him boldly by the hand as she led them towards the backdoor, going out through it and closing it behind Regulus.

Uncomfortable with the sudden silence, Leticia looked down at Sophia in her lap, glad that the baby was sleeping peacefully and not bothering the man that was even more uncomfortable than all of them put together.

"That... hm... film," the man started, voice careful as if he was choosing words. "What is that film about?"

Leticia looked up at Orion once more, glanced at her cousin Remus to find his confused face staring right back at the man. She cleared her throat, getting both of their attention on her.

"It's my favourite film. It's called 'Love Among the Ruins'," she answered. "It's a comedic romance. It has Katherine Hepburn in it."

She expected a reaction, perhaps a half-smile or an acknowledging nod at the famous and beloved name, but Orion Black looked at her with some curiosity before looking back at the television, quietly scrutinising the Katherine Hepburn's image.

"I believe Lord Black isn't familiar with the film at all, Leticia," Remus said, voice strained.

Leticia looked at him, trying to understand his reaction. It took her a moment to understand he was trying not to laugh.

"Well, the film's just starting so..." Leticia said, biting the inside of her cheek as she watched Remus for a second long. "That's Jessica, Katherine's character, she's an actress and she's much older than people expect her to be while still acting, and she broke her engagement with her fiancé, and apparently it was normal to sue people for that."
