Confession's || Draco Malfoy x OC

Diagon Alley

"What the hell were you thinking?" My mother questioned. "I understand that you didn't want to do the speech, but was almost blowing the house up the best option, i mean come-on. Your going into Hogwarts in a few weeks, I cant be sending you if I cant trust you" She shook her head.

"Mum I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it" I tried to explain but she was not having it. "What you just randomly started to cough fireworks, likely story" She sighed. She was right that it didn't happen randomly, the twins have been enchanting sweets to try and make them have certain effects on people. Obviously they cant make any more outside of school because they're underage but we can still test them. Rons to much of a whose to try them and Ginny will snitch. The twins, although they'd never admit it are also scared of trying them, so that leaves me. And i never back down from anything. So when they dared me to take a sweets seconds before my mother started her speech of course i took one. I don't regret it, cause it was bloody funny. But god do I wish my mother could see the funny side.

"Please tell me darling, did the Weasley twins put you up to this?" She questioned. "They're mother has been telling me about how much trouble they've been causing at school." She added, raising her eyebrow and waiting for my reply. "I wont be mad at you if it was there fault" She added.

I'm no snitch. "No mum it wasn't them, I don't know what happened but i didn't have any control over it." I told her. "Promise me you aren't lying to me" She spoke. "Mum I promise" I assured her. Soon after the party had ended and everyone went home i didn't get to say bye to the Weasleys I suppose they're mother had suspected them and dragged them back to the Burrow. Hopefully They could get out of it as easily as me.

We were on our way to Diagon Ally, the ministry had given us a car to drive us there and back. The ministry gave us a lot of things, tickets, cars, gifts anything we requested honestly. But back to Diagon Ally. I had been here loads, they sold everything you could ever need, I have no idea how muggles live without magic. I cant imagine life with out it, the Weasleys dad works in the misuse of muggle artefacts in the ministry, he knows loads about muggles and he always explains it to me. Did you know they're pictures don't move! How crazy is that?

That's one long list... My mother insisted that we buy everything new in her words "New school, New you" so we set off for a very long day in Diagon Alley. First we went to Olivanders to get a wand, my mother explained to me that he is this finest wand maker she ever met, she told me it's where she got her first wand the same one she has to this day.

My mother waited outside and set me into the store alone, she said id be able to connect with my wand better this way. I walked into Olivander's it was a strange store it was very full, and looked rather messy. However it had a certain sense of organisation to it, as if everything was placed in a way that made it easy to find, if you knew you way around.

"Hello.." I called through the shop leaning over the counter slightly. "Mr Olivander, are you here" I called out through the shop. A small head of a grey hair popped out behind a pile of boxes. "Ah hello Alice" Th old man exclaimed. I never told him my name...

"Hello Mr Olivander, I'd like to buy a wand" I stated. "Well I've got plenty of those" He laughed. "In fact i think i have the perfect one for you. He rushed to the back of the shop, occasionally i could see a head of grey hair pop up behind some boxes. Once he came back towards me he placed down four boxes, he layed them all down next to eachother and placed them on they're lids. He handed me the first wand and told me to give it a swish.

BANG! The light the other side of the counter burst, i quickly put the wand in the box and apologised. He assured me that it was fine and that it happened plenty. He handed me each wand individually and each time something went wrong, maybe there wasn't a wand destined for me. He smiled taking back the fourth wand i had tried and ran off into the back of the shop again.

Once he came back this time he only had one box. "Try this one, Laurel Wood with a unicorn core 13 3/4 inches and a surprisingly swishy flexibility." He explained handing me the wand. I picked it up and immediately felt a buzz, i gave it a swish and like magic everything I had destroyed in the store was fixed, even things that I haven't broken seemed to be in better condition. "Remarkable" he muttered. "I haven't seen a wand react like that since... well since a long time"  I smiled putting the wand back into the box. "My darling, i think you've found your wand"
