So basically this is when you first meet mattheo at the beginning of the school year ball (really the return of the dark lord celebration) hosted by the malfoys, enjoy! also just part one part two is gonna be even better!!! (i'll try to post it soon)

Starting at a new school after being homeschooled my entire life was definitely not fun, but I have to say being invited to a ball within my first two weeks of arriving has to be one of the highlights. Although I was invited by one of the most notoriously "slytherin" boys, Draco Malfoy, it doesn't sound so great. I know it will be fun, especially hearing from the rest of our group that he is fond of me.

As i was getting ready a small slip of paper fell through the crack of my door reading "common room in 20 minutes -DM"

I quickly put on my new dress I previously picked out that was white and shimmery and hugged me right at the waist.

I looked at myself after applying some makeup and pulling a small chunk of hair into a clip in the back and smiled. I looked good and felt it too.

I met with Draco and as soon as I entered the room he gave me a weird look.

"What?" I questioned.

"You look very nice, y/n." Draco said with slightly raised eyebrows. "Um, I forgot to mention it's a masquerade ball, is this okay?" and he handed me a gold and white mask that perfectly matched my dress.

"Woah, this is so nice, it's perfect thank you."

He nodded and Draco threw floo powder to get to his manor.

I looked up at the mansion in awe, "you grew up here? This is gorgeous!"

"Yeah, I guess it's pretty nice. We should get inside soon, we don't want to be late." Draco said as he held out his elbow, signaling for us to join arms. I accepted and we walked in.

Everything was decorated so elegantly with lots of dark academia decor.

I looked around to see lots of grown adults and from what I gathered Draco and I were the youngest there, except for a boy who looked a bit older than me dressed in all dark and his appearance seemed to match. We locked eyes for a moment, but Draco wanted to find his mom.

We walked around to find his mother and the woman with the white streaks in her hair immediately lit up when we saw her.

"Draco!!" she exclaimed.
''Hi mother," he said.
she hugged him and said cheerfully, "and who is this beautiful young lady?"
" this is my friend y/n, y/n this is my mother."

"Hi nice to meet you, I love your house by the way, it's absolutely gorgeous!" I said.

"Oh beautiful and sweet! I like this girl," Narcissia said.

I smiled and told Draco I was going to get a drink.
I made my way to a table with various beverages but I decided to go with sparkling water in a champagne glass. As I was taking a sip I looked over to see the young man with curly dark hair, I previously saw, catching eyes with me again.

As if knowing what was happening Draco came over once again and invited me to dance, which I of course accepted.

We started to talk a bit as we were dancing, but more as friends. It was very unexpectedly nice until a slower, more classical song came on.

(AN personally thought of the songs blue velvet, 24 or young and beautiful by ldr when coming up with this so you can listen or imagine it's those while reading.)

Draco held my waist and I his shoulders and it was surprisingly not romantically awkward but just natural.

All of a sudden the chorus come and Draco kind of spun me and I turned to see the same young man with curly hair, instead of Draco.

My eyebrows knitted slightly and we looked instinctively into each other's eyes.

His filled with darkness, but so alluring and mine light with curiosity.

He was absolutely dashing, his swift movements knowing how to make this entire waltz even more enticing.

There was something about him, so intriguing that made me never want him to let go. I didn't even know him but I could tell from his eyes, this was the beginning of something enchanting.
