"Come on, please? You've seen mine!" He whined as grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him. I sighed. "That was only because your mom showed me," I say. Draco slightly frowned. I swore to myself I wouldn't fall for it, but I just couldn't help it. I squinted at him, punching myself in the face on the inside. There I go, falling for it again.

"Fine. But I get to choose what we do for our next date." Draco makes a fist of victory. He looks at me and smiles, knowing what he just did. I take his hand and led him to my living room. My parents loved books growing up, so they have extremely tall shelves filled with books of every genre towering all the way up to the ceiling. But they also have a section of photo albums.

Unfortunately, the photo album section was much too high for me, and if I had the energy, I would climb the ladder to get to it. I slid my wand out from the inside of my jacket and with a small flick, the album came to me. "What are the other albums?" Draco asked as he explored the shelves with his eyes. I smile to myself.
"They're albums for my other siblings. Mum and Dad like to keep it up there. They like to look at it when they miss them."

I walk over to the couch in front of the fireplace. Draco follows me and sits himself next to me. "Alright," I sigh. "If I'm being completely honest, I forget what's in here, I'm wishing it's nothing embarrassing." I hand him the photo album and he takes it in his hands as if it was some trophy.

He opened the album to the first picture, which revealed me as a toddler wearing a red dress covered in gold glitter. I had a smile stretched across my face with smudges of chocolate fudge on the corners of my mouth. Draco lets out a soft chuckle. "No different than today, don't you think?" He joked. "Shut up," I say, playfully elbowing him.

He turns the page and takes some time to admire each picture on them. With each page he turns, it makes me remember my pre-Hogwarts days. The birthdays, Halloweens, Christmases I spent with my mother, father, and siblings... nowadays, my siblings, who are older than me leaving me to be the youngest, all have their own lives and are barely home. It makes me realize how much I truly miss them.

"Who's this?" Draco asks as he points to my older sister. "That's Bianca, my oldest sister. She's the one who taught me how to walk," I say. "Your tiny hands are holding her fingers... adorable," he smiled.

I lay my head on his shoulder as he continued to look through the rest of the photo album.

"Oh, I'm keeping this one."
