Draco had ignored Olivia every time she tried talking to him. They were all headed home for Christmas and she just had to hope that he would talk to her after. She missed him. Even if he just went on about how stupid she was, that would be better than him ignoring her.

Olivia got home and went up to her room. She unpacked and then walked downstairs. She paused when she heard her parents talking.

"We have to tell Olivia." Her mum said.

"Tell me what?"

"Come in and sit down."

"Okay now what?"

"Dear." Olivia's dad looked to the floor and sighed.

"You know the curse?"

"Yeah, anyone who is going to go out with me will be hurt."

"Yes but there's more. I also can't make contact with anyone but you."

"What about mum? Don't you guys touch."

"No. Your mum would get hurt. I honestly don't know why she is still with me."

"Because I love you no matter what." Her mum said with a smile.

"This curse was put on our family when you were just a tiny baby. There's another part to your part of the curse. If you have feelings for the person you go out with, it could be severe. Your kiss is deadly. If you kiss anyone they will die. I don't mind that part, nobody deserves my little girl."

"Dad!" He chuckled in response.

"There's only one person who knows how to break the curse, and that's the old lady that cast it."

"Where can I find her?"

"She lives near Malfoy manor. I've tried to find her many times but she can only be found by those who she wants to find her. I want you to try and find her."

"You'll have to convince the Malfoys to let you use their map." She might have a hard time with that one.

Olivia got her winter coat and traveled to Malfoy manor.

"Here goes nothing." She mumbled and then knocked.

"Hello?" A woman who looked just like Draco opened the door. "Oh dear, it's too cold out there. Come in." She pulled her in and sat her in the living room. "Let me get you some tea."

"That's alright, I need a map. I have to find a way to break the curse on my family."

"You're a Blake aren't you?"

"Yes."

"I'll be back." She walked out of the room. Olivia could hear her talking.

"Lucius, Andrew Blake's daughter is here. She's asking for a map to break the curse."

Two sets of footsteps began to get closer.

"Miss Blake, so good to see you again."

"Mr. Malfoy. My father told me that you could help."

"Yes I can, but I have to warn you. It's not easy finding her. I've tried."

"I can do it." He pulled out a map and handed it to her.

"Her cottage should be around here." He circled a section of the map. "Good luck."

Olivia left Malfoy manor and started walking towards the woods. She glanced back and saw someone peeking through a window. They disappeared as soon as she spotted them.

After what felt like hours of walking she finally found a cottage. She knocked on the door and after a while it was opened.

"Welcome." An old lady let her in with a smile.

"Are you the one that cursed my family?"

"Yes."

"How can I break it?"

"I won't tell you exactly but I'll give you some clues. First, only you can break it, but you can't do it alone. You'll need help. Second, you must fix something that is broken. That is all the advice I can give you."

"Thank you anyways." Olivia left disappointed.
