MARINA AWOKE the next morning and yawned before getting out of bed and getting ready for the day, she slipped on a simple yet still elegant blue dress with white lace on the top as a sheer cover. She then put on white heels and fixed her curly red hair before walking downstairs to breakfast.
She was a bit surprised to see all three Malfoy's sitting at her dining table but nonetheless sat down, next to Draco. "Marina, you know about my, er- career and how I have to leave quite often, this is one of those times. So, while I'm away, you'll be staying with Narcissa and Lucius." Marilyn said.
The reason her mother avoided speaking about her career was because she was an actress in the Muggle world but thought some would think it was disgraceful- so Marilyn never told anyone except her sister and daughter.
"You want me to stay with Draco all summer and listen to him complain about Potter?" Marina asked.
"We've come to the agreement while you're there, Marina, Draco wouldn't talk about Potter, Weasley, or Granger at all. In fact, I'm quite sick of it myself." Lucius said.
She nodded and Draco groaned. "But what if they do something, like try to get another dragon into school, or-" He tried but his mother shot him a look which made him stop talking.
A pop came from outside and in walked Marina's aunt Alice, and her two daughters Esme and Eliose. They all walked into the dining room and sat down. "Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy, how nice to see you two- and your son Draco I presume." Alice asked and they nodded.
"He's handsome." Eloise said giggling and her sister agreed, giggling as well.
"Ew, will you two stop? We're at the breakfast table for Merlin's sake." Marina said in disgust.
"What are you jealous, again?" Draco asked.
She scoffed. "No, I'm not. I just want to enjoy my breakfast in peace." She replied.
Narcissa smiled. "That's just her way of showing affection Draco."
Marilyn's smile faded when her sister stepped into the doorway simply because she didn't like her, but she plastered it back on. "Well, why are you here?" She asked Alice.
"Oh, you know- I thought we could stay with Marina while you're away."
"There's no need, Lucius and Narcissa have already agreed to let her stay with them and Draco."
Alice looked over at Narcissa, sneering slightly. "Well, I think Marina should stay with me." She said. Cissy sneered right back but quickly put on a sweet, sarcastic, smile. "How disappointing, well she's staying with us- that's the end of this discussion."
"Who are you? Her mother?"
"I'm close to being her mother, I love that girl like she's my own child!" Narcissa hissed.
"I'm her aunt! You-you-" Alice screeched.
"I think we should let Marina decide." Lucius interrupted.
Marina looked between them and smiled at Narcissa. "I want to stay with the Malfoy's, I'm sorry aunt Alice."
"It's settled then, I see no reason for you to be here anymore- so please leave." Marilyn said, praying her sister and her daughters would leave her home.
"Then we'll watch the house for you."
"Fine, now I have to get going. I'll see you soon Marina." She replied, kissing her daughter on the forehead before leaving.

After gathering all of her things, Marina and the Malfoy's all were ready to leave when Alice grabbed her by the hair slightly. "Listen here you little brat, I will not have you making a fool of me in any way, I'm going to be hosting parties here and I don't want you to mess things up by coming back!"
"I don't want to come back here and stay with you." Marina said.
"Good because if you do decide to come and stay, I won't hesitate to beat-"
"Is there a problem, Alice?" Narcissa asked.
Alice glared at her. "Not at all, Mrs. Malfoy." She replied with disgust.
"Good! Come on dear, Draco and Lucius are waiting for us." Narcissa said and she and Marina walked outside to join Lucius and Draco.
"It took you long enough."
"Shut up ferret."
