Morning rose for me to flutter my lashes open trying to adjust to the area to then see someone laying next to me as I watch my master for me to gulp in as I watch him closely on that moving some chocolate brown locks away from his eyes, "your awake, finally" he says as he opens his eyes looking at me as I put my hand under my head watching with him then leaning up moving my hair away from my face, "you glow in the morning, Highlander" he whispers coming closer planting a kiss on my lips as I hold onto his neck as he smirks in the kiss but all the fun had to come to an end, "my lord, my lady" I heard Avery say on the other side of the door for me to pull away a little from Riddle who growls on that as I giggle softly on that, "what is it, Avery?" Riddle hisses as he looks to the door, "breakfast is being severed master" Avery says as I look to Riddle knowing that I am hungry for some breakfast even if Riddle is nearly on me, "we will be out soon" Riddle says as he looks to me as I begin to get up but he then pulls me back planting a kiss on my lips as I put a hand on his jaw smiling as I pull away, "we should go get something to eat, my lord" I say as he humms on that as I pick my things up knowing it is a disgusting thought on wearing clothes I wore last night but I must because I haven't got clothes in Riddle's room, "Ella" Riddle then says out of the blue for me to turn towards him seeing he is holding up my bra's for me to smile on that as I walk over to him tucking hair behind my ear, "a kiss for it" he says as I look to him in wonder on that, "sir, bend down a little for such a gift" I say as he smirks bending down for me to grab the bra before he can think for him to look at me with shock on that as I am laughing on the look on his features, "did you just play me" he says as I stop laughing looking at my lord for me to look at the ground with fear he will hurt me, "sorry my lord" I say as I look to my mark tracing it as Riddle twitchs on me doing that, "Ella, stop that" he says as I press it making him to grab my arm looking to me with a glare, "I said stop, Highlander" he hisses for me to gulp in pulling my arm away to nod slowly with sorrow on him being mad at me.
After that, we head to breakfast for me to sit beside Riddle swirling my spoon around my porridge for me to breathe in looking in the corner of my eye at Riddle who is speaking with his followers not paying me any mind as some Slytherin girls approach, "hello everyone, Hogwarts will be hosting a winter ball, here is the filer" one of the girls says putting the filer on the table for me to look at it with wonder, not into those things they are quite draining, "a perfect time to get some death eaters together" Riddle whispers for me to look at him with wonder on that knowing I wish to not go if he is thinking along those lines, "yes my lord" his followers say as Riddle looks pleased for me to look at my food feeling that he is planning something evil at this moment which makes my stomach churn in fear on that. The days were passing for the Christmas ball to edge closer as I am in Hogsmeade looking at a window display of a dress that is dark blue as I look in my purse seeing that I could not afford such a dress even if I had money, "hey Highlander, are you coming?" I heard Riddle call as I look over at them gulping in knowing that I want it but I could not make that much if I am to afford such a beautiful dress, "of course" I say as I put my purse back in my bag joining them, "what were you looking at?" Malfoy asks for me to look at him and the others knowing they would never understand at all they aren't girls, "nothing" I answer as I look back at the window display and then follow my lord hating that I could not afford anything at all to look nice next to my master. The night finally arrived as the girls are dressed to the nines with beautiful gowns and done up perfectly as I sit on my bed reading my book when Mrytle sits down, "are you sure you don't want to join us, Ella" she asks for me to smile softly on that knowing Riddle will be disappointed I did not join him this night of beauty, "no you go, have fun" I say as she leaves then with me watching them leave but when the door closes I sob into my hands wanting to go so much but I am poor and have no money to spare on such nice things. I sit on the stool putting on makeup knowing if I look pretty for myself I don't need to attend such silly things like a ball but then there is a knock for me to look at the door with shock dropping my brush on the ground, "who is it?" I ask but there is no answer for me to step over opening the door a crack seeing Malfoy standing there with a box with a ribbon on top, "Malfoy" I question as he presents me with a box as I look at it in wonder at what he is doing, "Riddle's lady needs a dress for the ball" Malfoy says opening it for my face to light up looking to him, "thank you" I say to hug him as he chuckles on that, "thank me later" Malfoy says as I take the box, "I will wait in the common room" he says leaving with me pulling the dress out twirling in a circle touching the fabric that is soft to the touch knowing that this is going to be a night to remember.
