Angelica's POV

After Draco's mother left, I was stunned. I guess Draco was serious whenever he said that he needed a date. I started to wonder around the castle. Many of the house elves were finishing up the decorations in the grand hall and ball room. I took a stroll still around their garden and soon went back to my room.

I opened up the walk in closet and saw a beautiful green dress along with accessories. There was a note attached to the dress

NOTE:
Dear Mrs. Boivin,
Please accept this dress to wear at the party. We think that it would look beautiful on you. It is yours to keep.
~Malfoy Family

Everything was so beautiful. It was easy to tell that the Malfoy family had good taste. It still doesn't make up for that they all work for Voldemort. I can't get too comfortable here. Who knows what this family is up to.

I fixed my hair and makeup and then proceeded to put on the dress and accessories. It was soon 9'o'clock sharp and I hear a nock on me door. I open it to see Draco in a black suit and a green silk tie.

Draco: Okay it's time to attend the gathering you filthy-....wow
He said with his mouth wide open

Me: What is it?

Draco stayed silent

Me: close your mouth or you will catch flies
Draco snapped back to reality and took my hand. We headed down the grand stairs towards the ballroom. Everyone started staring. It felt like I was at the Yule Ball all over again, except I wasn't with Cedric. I was with Draco.
My hair started to turn a light pink. I felt a little shy walking down those stairs while at least 100 people were looking at me. The Malfoy's guests stared in awe while whispering to one another.

Lucius: Ah, Mrs.Biovin..I see you accepted the gift

Narcissa: You look beautiful darling. Slytherin green suits you well.

Me: Thank you Mrs. Malfoy

Lucius: Bow Draco, due keep Mrs.Boivin company through the rest of the night

Draco: Yes father
Draco and I then headed off towards the drinks

Draco: Want some punch?

Me: Yes please
We stood in silence

Draco: This party is pretty boring. Woolf you like to take a walk with me around the garden?

Me: Sure
Draco took my hand and led me to the garden. We circled around in silence until I decided to break the silence

Me: So.....nice party huh?

Draco: The party is pathetic. It's just another excuse for my father and his "friends" to have one of their stupid meetings afterwards

Me: Oh, I see

Draco: Yeah. If I had a choice not to come? I would

There was a slight pause

Me: You know, you don't have you be like your father Draco. You don't have to go through with whatever he's trying to do

Draco: You don't understand Angelica. I have no choice. I have to do what he tells me to. It's either that or I'm left for dead. Plus what do you know about me

Me: You'd be surprised how much you I know about your father. I'm guessing he wants the same dark path for you. It's an evil path you know.............I sense that you don't want to talk about it.

Draco: No, I'd rather not

Me: Just know that if you ever want to talk about it, I'll be here. It's not fair how your father treats you

There was another long silence

I can see where Draco gets his dick of an personality from. I began to travel though Drsco's mind. He didn't want to become a death eater. He wasn't a bad kid. His father was putting all of this pressure into him and forcing him to do things against his own will. I saw some awful images that I wish I never saw. Draco isn't as awful as I thought he is. He was just miss understood

Draco: Do you care to dance?

Me: What? Out here?

Draco: yes out here. Don't you hear the music coming from the ballroom?

Me: I an not deaf you know

Draco took my hand and pulled me in close for a slow dance.

Dracos POV

I know that I shouldn't be thinking this, but wow. Angelica is so beautiful. I mean really beautiful. Just dancing with her is giving me butterflies. I don't think a girl has ever made me felt like this.I've had a crush in her since the day she arrived at Hogwarts. That bloody Cedric beat me to it. But even if she didn't have a boyfriend, why would she go for me? I have nothing good to offer.

Me: You look quite beautiful tonight Angelica

Angelica: Thank you. You don't look so bad yourself
She said with a twinkle in her eyes.

She is so stubbing . Even though she probably hates me to guts, she still finds the courage to be nice to me. Maybe I'm growing on her? Well whatever. I'm going to enjoy this wonderful moment with the girl of my dreams.

Angelica's POV

Draco and I danced and talked all night. Being away from the party was a good call. We were then approached by Draco's father

Lucius: I see that you two are enjoying yourselves. Here, have some punch you two.. and hurry off to bed. There is some adult business that my guests and I need to take care of down here

Lucius then turned around back to the ballroom

Draco: Let's go upstairs. We can continue our conversation in your room if you would like

Me: Sure, I would love that
