AN: This is what I had in mind for what she is wearing and it kind of sets the scene.

"I did. And I heard it's old wizards getting transported places. And an old widow wanders the train making friends with everybody— but everyone ignores her."

Alexandra Stone.

"Hey—" Theodore saw them and laughed. "I know you could hear me come down the hallway, just how did you end up in this position?" He asked twirling his finger in a circle pointing at them. They all ended up laughing. Draco got out of the shirt and stood up, "What do you need Theodore?" Draco asked rubbing his hands together. 

"Well I was going to say hi but I think I'm interrupting something." He said pointing between them again. "No you're not interrupting anything we were just laughing because I fell in the shirt and he somehow got in the shirt." Alex explained giggling. Draco grunted. She rolled her eyes at him and Theodore just chuckled closing the door on his way out. 

There was a silence as he left and Draco picked her up bridal style. "I thought we were saving this for the wedding." She said laughing. "We are it's just I want to marry you now. But it has to be some day in the future we can't leave Hogwarts. Well you can't it's not safe for you outside." He said kissing her cheek as he laid her down on the bed. 

"Draco can we go to Black Lake? I always used to go there it was peaceful, and plus all we do is sit here and do nothing. And I want to go outside and take advantage of it while we can." She said. 

(9 hours later: Dusk)

Changing into a soft white silk dress. It was loose; breathable. Draco too just changed into a new suit. He usually wore them all the time— a jet black suit. 

As they walked out of the door kids walked around silently looking down. She felt bad for each one of them. They exited the common room wandering the halls to find one of the various exits to the lake that the castle seemed to have. 

Soon they decided on an exit near the Whomping Willow. The tree that she used as an excuse for everything. They slowly passed it making sure not to get to close to it. And eventually they saw the lake in view. They walked down to the lake as a lantern sat on a large stump that was dugout of the ground. She stepped onto the stump looking over the lake. 

She decided she wanted to explore more. "I want to go further." She spoke making her way down the shore line letting the water soak her feet. 

"It's not safe—" Before Draco got to finish his sentence she stopped him. "No, I'm done being locked up, it'll be the last thing we do then." She said going down another steep section. She came across a boat— a small row boat for two. She turned to look at him. He nodded making his way to her and the boat. 

She got in first and he pushed the boat in the water jumping in too. As they paddled through the lake the lake got smaller and turned into a river. They came across little houses that faced the river. This reservoir was her favorite. They soon came across a bridge. One familiar to both of them. That is were the train went. Their favorite place it crossed. And for a moment they sat there admiring it. 

And soon got snapped out of thought when a train was crossing. "Did you know trains still crossed over even when students weren't getting picked up?" She asked calmly. He nodded. "I did. And I heard it's old wizards getting transported places. And an old widow wanders the train making friends with everybody— but everyone ignores her." He said raising an eyebrow. 

"Are you serious?" She questioned him, she had a sad look on her face. He smiled. "I'm lying. I have no idea where it goes I just know it goes places still— and is used for transportation. That story was made up." He said continuing to row. She began as well. They made it to a beach were it began to drizzle. Little specs of rain flew across them as they reached the shore.

There was a house overlooking the water. It was not that close to Hogwarts, a fair distance. They ran out of the boat across the sand barefoot up to the house. It was close to the water. Draco looked at the house then noticed the 'For Sale' sign in the window. They both went under the porch and tried the door. 

Alexandra whipped out her wand, "Alohomora." She spoke and the door opened leading into the house. It was nice. Big— not small. They walked around the house, noticing there was three rooms, a large kitchen, a large living room, and the entry way that was still pretty big. The house was still for sale. 

"How is this place still for sale?" She questioned going back to Draco. He shrugged. "I have no idea." He muttered. "We should wait it out." He said as a bolt of lightning struck. 

"Yeah we probably should." She said as she sat on the floor. There was furniture but it looked as if it had been there for decades. "This place is so hidden probably no one knows it's here." She said as she got up going to Draco watching threw the window that faced the water. 

"It's beautiful here." Draco said looking around them as he swung an arm around her. "I'm going to buy it." He said getting one of the registration forms. He wrote down all of the information about his credit card and name. And bought the house. "Did you just buy this house?" She asked as he slipped the form into the box. 

"Yes." He said as he picked her up. "We bought this house." He said kissing her softly. "But you did you bought it. I didn't." She said feeling bad. "How about I buy the furniture and—" She was cut off by his kiss again. "I don't really care who does I just want to spend my life with you in this house." He said taking all of their problems away. But not really. Just one of his many distractions. 

He let her down as the rain stopped. "We should get going back to Hogwarts." He stopped as he dragged her out back to the boat. "I had an amazing time." They both said in sync. 

And it really was like all of their problems fluttered away.
