It was October, we were scheduled to finish the filming of Deathly Hallows 1 by this month, I had already started college again, it was weird to sit with a new class, because the people that I knew from college had already graduated last year, since I took a leave for a year. Stupid work! "Y/N!" David shook me and I snapped back to reality. "Take your position" he said as I stepped into the set.

"Scene 139, take 1. Action!"

Olivia's POV

I opened my door to only see Draco was about to knock on my door. I jumped and said, "Draco! You scared me" "Can I come in?" he asked and I dropped my hand that was resting on my heaving chest on the account of the scare.

"Yes, yes. Sure" I said and invited him in. "I-If you don't want to get into this arrangement, then-then it's fine, I-I'll get us out of it" he said as he sat down on my bed and picked up the book that I was reading earlier. "No, I – What would give you the idea that I want an out of this arrangement?" I asked and he looked up from the book.

"No, well, just, erm, it's been hours since you talked to me, or even left your room, so I thought, you might-" "Oh, no, no. Of course not. Its just... that was what I wanted to talk to you about. I was gonna come to your room" I said as I placed my head in his lap. I stared at the ceiling and Draco closed the book.

Tom ran his hand through my hair, this wasn't scripted, why did he do this? I shook my thoughts and continued with the scene.

"Draco, don't get me wrong, as much as I want to do it, I don't think we should. I mean there is something going on in his mind, something that I cannot place. Something cruel and dark and evil. I don't want us to start our relationship on the basis of an arrangement" I said as he stroked my hair.

"What do you mean by something's going on in his mind?" he said as I met his gaze. "Erm" I said as I sat up straight and he raised his eyebrows. "Why this sudden interest in my life, Draco? He wants something. I don't know what. But I know that for sure that he wants something" I said and he placed his hands on my shoulders.

"Look, I am not just saying this because I am fucking scared of the Dark Lord, but maybe just maybe, is it all because you're being a little paranoid, just overthinking stuff?" he said rubbing my shoulders. "What if he actually wants to do something good?" he said and quickly shook his head. "Really?" I asked rhetorically.

"Sorry, that sounded as much as worse in my head" he said chuckling lightly. "But I didn't know that you were that desperate to get married to me Draco" I teased him. "I'm not" he said rolling his eyes at me. "Right, right, sure. Tell that to your face" I said and there was a knock at the door.

"Come in" this time Draco replied. "I just wanted to inform you that you will be getting engaged tonight. I will be hosting a ball and you can have the ring ceremony in our gardens" Narcissa said sweetly. Probably, she was happier than the both of us. Combined.

"Really, mother? A ball?" Draco said as he stood up and walked over to his mother.

"And, could you please smile a little less? You're making it bloody obvious that you are way happier with this arrangement than we are. For Merlin's sake, we're in the middle of a fucking war" he completed shaking his head, making me giggle.

"Language, Draco" Narcissa warned politely. Boy, was Draco spoiled. "Tonight, Mrs. Malfoy? Isn't it too soon?" I asked and she shrugged. "His wish" she replied and I looked at Draco. "Alright, then. I just wanted to inform you. Now, if you would excuse me, I have a ton of preparations to do" Narcissa said looking at the both of us. She giggled and left the room.
