silver soul - beach house

~Christmas at the Malfoys~

draco had invited me to the Manor once again, saying that he's never had christmas with friends. i accepted the invite and we left for the Manor. he also had to have his cousin come, Sarah, Sarah Lestrange.

"Even though i am related to him, i've never been to his house," Sarah said to me, eyeing draco who was talking with his Mother.

"I was here for the summer," i whispered back.

she giggled, "so I'm going to assume you like draco? Since you're coming back a second time? like, like like?"

i shook my head fast, "nooooo. dracos a friend of mine. That's it, really."

she nodded and slipped a quiet "sureeee" before Narcissa and Draco led us to the Spare bedroom.

"Lucius will be home soon, so i suggest that if you want small talk, you don't talk about Hogwarts or Dumbledore." i nodded, asking no questions. Sarah seemed to know the gist and did the same.

—

Draco and I walked down the snowy road, Sarah not far behind us. "i don't want to go back to that stupid school." said draco with a huff.

"Why?" i asked, looking back at Sarah as she opened her mouth to speak but closed it just as quick.

"everyone there thinks they're all that, not to mention Pottah... all the attentions always on him. Pottah this, pottah that. why do you even hang around that freak." draco sneered.

"draco shut up," i said, kicking his shins, "you think harry chooses to get into trouble? you think he wants attention?"

draco shrugged and sarah shrugged her arms.."it's only your second year draco, you might as well get used to him." added Sarah quietly.

"Sarah shove off. if your mum knew you were making Mudblood friends she would murder you." draco spat, crossing his arms.

"Draco!" I said, slapping his arm, "Sarah can make friends with whoever she wants!"

sarah shook her head, "Dracos right. i'd be dead if my mum found out i was friends with muggleborns."

i sighed, "you both have strict parents."

"Strict is putting it nicely." sarah whispered.

it was Christmas day and Narcissa bought me some presents since my mum or dad had no clue how to come in contact with me. they were wizards but they had been obliviated for giving information about the Wizarding World to muggles when they thought my aunt Maggie could be a wizard but she actually just turned out to be pished and had hands on some value-able knowledge.

i opened my present from Hermione and Harry first, which was a book about Magical creatures, and nature. Hermione wrote me a note too,

Dear Ameylia Gord,
Happiest Christmas to you! We have lots to discuss when you get back, let me tell you. I cannot write on a letter in case it ends up in the wrong hands... but I hope you like this book! I saw you looking at it in Hogsmaede the day we went dress shopping.
Love, Hermione Granger.

i smiled and opened the present from the Weasleys which was a Sweater with an "A" on it. I hid it behind my back, knowing that the Malfoys had lots of fued with the Weasleys.

i opened the gifts narcissa got me which were two necklaces and a dark green dress. i hugged her as she and Lucius drank wine and watched Sarah and Draco open their presents. i spotted one more present in the corner under the tree with my name on it. i ripped off the paper and gasped on what was inside.

it was a tiara with clear quartz stones on it. i looked at the address and frowned. it was from Wood. i looked at the note and all it said was. "sorry. this is our last year together and i don't want to leave it on a bad note." i bit my cheek realizing that it was his last year. he had told me before that he wasn't staying until his very last year because he was pursuing his dream of playing national quidditch. i shoved all my presents into my bag, and heading back down to the Malfoys to see what Draco and Sarah got.
