16. Twins And Futures

Entering the last room, I found myself in the middle of a heated argument, however, it was quite an odd speculation. Closing the door behind me, I was met with my cousin but not just one rather than two.

They both turned to me upon my arrival and crossed their arms before beginning to speak over one another once more.

I rolled my eyes and with slight force pushed them both onto the couch behind them. Except one stood up and scowled walking behind the couch leaning over ever so slightly.

"What's going on? And which is Bella?"

"I am."

I shook my head starting to get annoyed, "Okay, which one is Annabella Duval?"

"I am."

The twin seated on the couch turned to the other and scoffed, "Give it up Bellatrix, we both know I'm the Duval. Just reform yourself."

"Nope. Not until Scarlett here chooses the best-looking Bella."

I raised an eyebrow and cocked my head, "This is what you were arguing over? Seriously."

"Yes. Now pick."

I shook my head and took a seat in the single chair as I looked at the set of identical persons who were serious, "Really? There's a war brewing and you are fighting over who looks best as Annabella?"

"Just pick!"

I scoffed and stood up leaving the room but stopped just before I closed the doors, smirking, "Bellatrix with the hair and you've got the style, Annabella. Now both of you, just be careful."

I then stuck my head back in slightly, "Oh and, Annabella, sorry for the whole kidnapping you, thing. Alright, goodbye."

I closed the doors and rolled my eyes before bumping into another person, knocking myself down.

"I heard you had a habit of running into people like this."

I looked up and smirked as I reached out for the extended hand. He pulled me up and we stood there only for a moment before the silence was broken.

"You really do have pretty eyes, love."

"Since when did you start calling me, 'love'? What happened to 'Scar'?"

He chuckled and wrapped his arms around my waist as I reached around his neck, "Why not, I think 'love' fits you. Besides after last night, I wanted to kiss you before you left."

I met his eyes and gave him a curious glance, "So, you ran into me on purpose?"

"No. No, well... maybe."

I shook my head but gave him another look, one he understood. One that meant, I had to go.

"Do you really have to?"

"I do, but maybe I should take the Trio for a little detour, they need a break."

"Or you could let them save the world..."

"Draco, since when did you want them to win?"

"Since you had to be on the run with them and since you never stay just here with me. Since our future wasn't supposed to be like this."

I smiled softly and placed a hand on his cheek to which he leaned into, "Our future?"

"I've had a lot of time to think."

"Tell me. What do you have planned?"

He fell into my eyes as I did, "I see a big, beautiful home, with us. Two kids, maybe three, I don't want my child to be alone like I was."

"Hey, you had me, and Pansy and Blaise."

"Right, but it's not the same as a sibling. And I see us happy, and as much as I dislike the Weasleys, I know you're close with some of them. So I see Sunday picnics, with family quidditch games where we beat them every time. But most importantly, I see you. You are my future, Scarlett."

"Oh, Draco," I let out a solemn but happy sigh, "Well then I can't wait."

He smiled and leaned forward but I knew I wouldn't have left, so I smirked as his eyes widened just before I watched him disappear as I soon found myself standing in the Forest Of Dean.

"He's the thief I saw leaving Gregoravitch's wand shop, Grindelwald." I made a curt spin towards the voice and cocked my head mischievously.

"I heard my name. I was summoned?"
