"It's one thing to lose a family member from old age, or just them peacefully dying in their sleep, but he...he was only eighteen. I watched the life leave his eyes, I felt his pulse leave his wrist, I touched his cold skin as his body heat plummete...
I open my eyes and see Draco, he's stroking my hair and has a small smile on his face. His other arm is wrapped around my waist and I smile remembering falling asleep together last night.
"Good morning, darling," Draco whispers,
"Good morning," I say, cuddling up closer to him,
"How'd you sleep?"
"Great, that was the best sleep I've had in a while," he's still stroking my hair and it's really calming,
"What made it so much better?" he asked with a small smirk,
"You," I nestled my head into his chest and he kissed the top of my head, wrapping both arms around me, encasing me in his comforting warmth. He rolled over a bit, making it so that I'm laying on top of him, hugging his torso.
I hear somebody walking outside his door and sat up quickly, sitting on top of him now.
"It's okay, princess, it's just one of the house elves," Draco said, I looked at him, he had a smile on his face and I realized the position I was in right now and felt my face flush red.
"Oh god, I'm sorry," I got off him, he whined a little bit,
"Get back where you were, that was comfy," he said, he wrapped his arms back around my waist and pulled me into the same comfortable position we were in before. I smiled and closed my eyes. We cuddled for a while, we must have been cuddling for a long time because Max and Matt came in to see what's up because we weren't coming out of his room.

These past couple days have been pretty chill. We've just hung out, chilled, and enjoyed our summer. Today is now the day that the Pureblood party is taking place and Matt, my father and I are going to the Malfoy manor later.
It's about 4:30 pm right now, and the party starts at 7 so I decide to start getting ready. As I shower I think about the party, all the people that will be there I've known since I was little but I don't feel like I really know them.
I think of how awkward it might be with all the kids that I've never enjoyed hanging out with, most of them are jerks who act like they own Hogwarts. Astoria will be there, when I think of how Theo will be there my stomach turns uncomfortably.
After my shower I dry off and stay in my towel and text Max while listening to music as my hair air dries. Once my hair is all dry I brush it out and then start on makeup. It takes a while but once it's all done it looks great.
Now I put on the dress I picked out for today a couple nights ago.

I do my hair and then put on some jewelry and heels. Now that I'm all ready it's almost seven. Matt comes into my room as I'm just adding some finishing touches.
