Unforgiven ~ (Draco Malfoy x OC)

~The Story of Us~

I was dreaming. I was actually having one of those dreams that made no sense but at least it was pleasant.

Not like the nightmares of fire and ashes, nor like the dreamless sleep I've been having for the past months.

Then I felt a weight on my back.

"Not yet" I murmured but I got no answer.

I opened my eyes and I saw two big yellow eyes looking back at me.

Most people would freak out but I'm just used to it.

"What do you want?" I asked and grabbed my cat Elvira.

She wakes me up every morning when she's hungry by sitting on my chest.

She ran free off my hands with her black tail moving impatiently and she managed to open my bedroom's door, after jumping on the doorknob.

'She actually is half-Kneazle isn't she?'

I always thought that the shopkeeper in Paris was just trying to get me to pay more galleons for the cat, but even if he were, Elvira was worth every single galleon I paid for her.

She meowed as if to say " follow me".

"No way! Go and eat alone. I'm not coming" I said, still lying on my bed.

"MEOWWW" she meowed louder this time.

"Alright, alright you grumpy, I'm coming." I said and got up from my bed.

I'd eventually have to wake up earlier today since it's the day that I will start all over again...

The day that we will take the Hogwarts Express from King Cross Station in London.

I put on some clothes and headed downstairs.

My mother and Clare were sitting at the table eating breakfast. Mother was still wearing her PJS but Clare was dressed all fancy.

'What's with her?' I thought. She must have woken up hours ago just to make herself look "beautiful" for her first day at school.

'Is she hoping to impress anyone at Hogwarts?'

They looked at me as I was walking past the table, but they didn't even bother to talk to me...Just like they always do.

"Hogwarts is better you know" I heard mother say to Clare.

"When I was there I was having a wonderful time"

"Yeah, you've told me mom."Clare answered bored.

I decided to completely ignore them too. I had just finished feeding Elvira when I heard mother's voice.

"Oh Mon Dieu!! It's already 7:00 AM! We need to go!!" she said in a French accent and then turned to me for the first time.

"Have you packed, Alex?" she asked

"Not yet" I said in a calm tone just to annoy her.

"What are you waiting for then? Go and pack now! It's a three-hour drive to London!"she shouted.

'Drive?? She cannot possibly mean that we're going the muggle way again.'

This last summer, after we got expelled from Beauxbatons, mother, Clare and I have been living in a small house outside Bristol.

Mom got a driving license and we've been living like muggles for the whole summer.

Muggles are boring. I wonder why mother even fell in love with that drunk-ass, who dumped her after leaving her pregnant.
