The law firm is cold and minimal. It feels bland and smells like fresh paper. Malfoy entered but wasn't allowed past the waiting area.
"I just want to know why and you won't tell me or open up. You can be so stubborn" Kael says as we wait for the lawyer to enter his office
"Look, Kay, I didn't feel like I had a choice, and I regret making you feel bad, I'm sorry" I apologize
"Ok. Here is Mr. Parker's last will and testament. I have a copy right here" the Executor enters his private office
"Alright" Kael nods
"All you need to dobis sign some documents"
"Sounds simple" I breathe in deeply, preparing myself, scribbling a signature.
"Ok now that's taken care of you're both free to go"
"Thankyou, I bow my head"
"So, you and Malfoy. I thought you hated him? I've been trying to wrap my head around it." We walk out of the office
"Trust me, I did." I gulp in response
"What you did was terrible- it hurt so much. At first, I was so worried, then I was mad, because you left internationally, and it sucked. "
"I'm sorry"
"I forgive you" I gasp in surprise at my brother's words "Malfoy, however, he lied to me"
"It was my idea to protect you" I counter honestly
"I don't care, you're my sister, my blood. He's not." He says exiting the building, following me
"Hey, uh let's just go" I tell Draco
"Not so fast." he walks over to malfoy
"What exactly are you're intentions? They can't be worthy. You lied to me. You're best friend, I thought that meant something. Clearly you're loyalty doesn't lie here"
"Hysterical, Kay. Odd considering you turned on your own sister"
"That's over. I forgave her"
"So you're shifting the blame on me?"
"Yeah, I have every reason to. You lied, and now you're with my sister"
"Kay just, stop. I'm not going to say it's all my fault, but no one else is to blame either" I speak, as he Draco holds me tightly by the waist.
"No. I want what's best for you. This is not it"
"What about what I want, for me? It's my life. I'm not going to be a little housewife. Someday, after I have my life where I want it, I'll raise a family."
"I get it you're so smart, have your life ahead of you. Mom and I- we just want you to have more than she had. She had work kids- but her and dad didn't work."
"I make my own choices. I'm not doing what she did, at all"
"That's true, Alex is so stubborn and independent and intelligent, and she never listens to me" Malfoy verifies
"As she should, Draco." Kael says
"Whatever, I want to go home now, please" I tell Draco
"Okay" he pauses briefly "Well, it was nice to see you, but we are going to be having a guest over, so we should get going"
"Hey, uhhh… Lex, call me sometime"
Kael swiftly pulls me in for a hug.
"I will" I relax in his embrace. We then proceed to the car.
"Thalia said she'd be here at five. It's 5:30."
"Is that unusual, for her?"
"No. It's pretty normal for her" I smule gently, still pacing, clutching my hands together. "She's probably really fucking upset"
"Relax, Princess" just as he says that Patty approaches
"Miss, you're visitor has arrived" I nod, she leads me down the stairs.
"Thal. Hey it's good to see you."
"I couldn't not see you. When Marcus came and told me, I don't get why he was so angry. He didn't try to understand it. Anyway, I'm glad you're safe"
"I'm sorry, Thal"
"I'm not mad. I can't ever stay mad at my best friend"
"Since when did you get so sappy and sentimental"
"Since I missed you"
"Guilt trip, much" I giggle
"So, when do I meet the owner of this fine estate?" She Jokes
"I can introduce you right now"
"Thalia this is Draco Malfoy. Draco this is my closest friend, Thalia"
"Pleasure to meet you Thalia"
"I'm not straight, but damn"
"Witty" He scratches his neck slightly uncomfortable.
"She's taught me everything she knows." I remark
"In a sense. Is there anywhere, we can chat, in this huge place?"
"I know a place" I take her to my room, mostly unused at this point
"So, there's no way you are not hooking up. They said you were dating, but that doesn't sound like you. Really, rich, stuck up, snooty?"
"Honestly, I hated him at first, and now, I don't know, I feel like I did with Daniel, but totally different at the same time"
"He's the opposite of Daniel. I don't get it"
"I know, he's very demanding, ambitious, cunning, He's fun to challenge, he wants something, he gets it."
"Sounds like an asswhole"
"Only I can call him that"
"What's the sex like?"
"Personal much"
"Just curious"
"Fine. It's amazing. What's going on with you?"
"Kate and I are good. I finished college applications. Marcus is better now, hangs out with Daniel a lot. He's asked about you as a friend."
"I missed you guys. I think now, I need to figure my life out."
"You'll be fine."
"I know. I'll call you, sometime, my phones broken, right now"
"Alright bye" Thalia leaves,
We sit on the couch in an unending silence. I gaze into his grey eyes accented by a blue color. Should I speak, or leave it be?
"Princess, If you have something to say, please say it"
I know this isn't normal, I know he's done horrible things. I don't care anymore. I clear my throat, glancing up at him, he glances back.
"I don't know how to say this, but I need to. Lately, you're the only thing that matters. I'm in love with you; I love you." I fidget with my hands, unsure where to place them
"You do, huh?" He narrows his stone, silvery grey, eyes
"Draco, I wouldn't say that if I didn't mean it"
"Stop. No, You're not.” He clenches his jaw
“You can’t tell me how I feel.”
“Don’t"
“I could sit here and list all your bad traits, nothing would change. I spent so much time hating you, just to end up here." I reveal
He trudged away without another word.
