Sirius seemed tired, he hasn't slept much with all the work Cornictacus gave him, and all the 'work' for Helga, however he was happy to help, he ran toward the second floor before anything could change and eventually walked in the corridor reaching the door to Helga's office, he knocked at the door, not remembering if she wanted him to enter directly or to knock, he though maybe it would be more prudent to do the latter.

Helga was in her window seat, staring outside with a lost and vacant expression. She was now seven and a half months far in her pregnancy. And Cornictacus was still not back. She missed him dearly and felt bad constantly asking Sirius about her fiance, but she needed to know he was fine. The knock on the door brought her back to reality. Helga turned her head towards the door and said weakly, "Enter." |

Sirius just opened the door and entered, closing it slowly as he looked at Helga, she didn't seem that good, he sighed calmly sitting on a chair nearby, it would be much easier just using letters and owls but it wouldn't be convincing. "Brought him some of your food, he is eating them, he is crying saying it tastes just like the food you make professor, I think he misses you.."

Listening to his words caused her throat to tighten. Helga nodded in response and stood up from the window seat, only to sit back down behind her desk. She stared down in her lap and asked, "Did he say anything about me?" Helga wanted to know if he would ever come back to her, but did not dare ask. |

"He mutters your name in his sleep, hugs his pillow as well. He hum...started drinking lately, got drunk on fire whiskey, me and Gloria had to take him to a healer." Sirius said, that wasn't great at all, he remembered that scene very well, Cornictacus puking, it was so horrible, not only that but other things too he just shook his head in disgust. "While drunk.. he even tried to kiss me, thinking it's you."

Helga was genuinely shocked to hear that Cornictacus started drinking, and it showed on her face. She leaned forwards and asked hurriedly, "Is he better now?" Helga hated to think of her fiance to be in such pain. She wanted to go to him and make all the bad things go away. However, after her last visit she wouldn't dare. |

"Yes the healer stopped his addiction but he is still.... unable to cook without you around him, he can't even bake bread or make the simplest of foods" Sirius said, looking at her, when would they finally be back together, he didn't like seeing Cornictacus like that because it always meant that he and Gloria have to work hard.

Helga looked relieved after hearing Sirius's words and said absentmindedly to herself, "I will send a note and thank the healer." She needed to see Cornictacus; her life had stopped the moment he left. "Take care of him," she finally said softly. Helga looked away and buried her face in her hands. |

"But professor... he is your man." Sirius said and sighed was there any ways to get them back together for good? He preferred being cursed by Viktor than doing this, working a lot of hours, he just looked at her. "I won't be able to follow him for a month or two professor... he'll be going in his treasure hunts."

Still looking away Helga shook her head and said, "He's not my man. He left me Sirius." Helga stiffened at the student's next words. She turned back to face him with a look of utmost horror. "He cannot go," she said hysterically. Helga leaned forwards and added, "He is not in a condition to go on his expeditions."

"I tried telling him that professor... but he won't listen to me." Sirius said as he looked at her calmly, he tried many times to stop him, mostly because he still bled when he did too much, he avoided telling that to Helga though as he looked away calmly.

"Then try harder," she snapped. Helga was shocked by her own words. She covered her mouth with her hand and stammered, "I am sorry Sirius. I did not mean to... You have been doing amazingly... I am sorry." Helga looked away and wondered if she should ask one of her fellow founders to have a word with him. |

Sirius just looked down when Helga snapped at him, it wasn't a thing he was used to he kept looking at the floor for a while. "I'm trying my best professor.. but it's not working.. maybe you should... if not... then how about professor Gryffindor?"

Helga shook her head and said, "I cannot. I am sorry but... I... I cannot Sirius." She hung her head sadly and could only nod in response. Helga actually had Salazar in mind; she was much closer to him and trusted him more than Godric. |

Sirius understood, it seemed to be too much for them to just see each other, he just hope Cornictacus could come back to Helga, ever since he left for a couple of months he never seemed lively, Sirius looked at the ceiling and then the floor sighing calmly. "He was playing with his ring professor.. unable to take it off, he misses you greatly."
