Too Sweet || Blaise Zabini

My prayers have been answered.

The Hogwarts post came by once a week, if it was busy maybe two times. Owls would carry the mail, squawking into the great hall, announcing that letters were coming through. If you didn't have any correspondence, they would ignore you.

Blaise was usually ignored since his mum didn't really contact him at school if it wasn't anything important. She worried for him, yet decided against distracting him from his homework. Mrs. Zabini was someone who was busy, keeping herself entertained with the lavish life she lives, so she didn't have a need to tend behind her son, which she knows takes care of himself.

He wasn't expecting anything this morning, since it was just a normal Thursday in March, the weather starting to warm. The sun was out and the great hall was serving breakfast, so he sat with Draco and Camden on a bench, digging in.

"Walk me through this again," Draco says after swallowing a bite of eggs "Camden came into Kali's room and Carla flashed him?"

They have been going over this since last friday and Camden cannot live it down. Draco and Blaise haven't let him forget his embarrassing moments from a few days ago. He blushes every time they mention it, but it's a waste of breath to argue with them.

"She flashed all of us." Blaise answers, nodding at Draco. "Camden looks me straight in the eyes and says he's turned on. I almost died laughing."

"I was drunk!" He attempts to defend himself, but it's no use. "Everything gets me horny when I have moonshine in my system!"

Draco burst out laughing, not hiding his amusement. "You poor excuse of a man!" He says in between giggles.

A familiar sound rang through the great hall, the post was coming. Students of all ages looked up with hope of getting some fun correspondence, Blaise didn't care so he kept eating.

Draco's owl dropped off a few letters from his mother, signed with the Malfoy crest that adorns every piece of stationary that he receives. He opens them glumly, probably thinking he's in trouble, like usual.

Camden gets dropped off a letter from his father's office. As minister of magic he never has free time, even for his son, so the handwriting is solely his assistant's. His mum doesn't reach out as much, wrapped up in his father's image, so this is just a monthly check in that his assistant does to make sure that his son is behaving.

To Blaise's surprise, his owl called Duke flew lower than usual, carrying an envelope. Once it was dropped in front of him, he stared at it with confusion. He had an idea of what it would be, so he opened it hastily. Just like he expected, a letter from his mum.

Dear Blaise,

I hope the classes you chose for this semester have been going well. Your grades are looking wonderful! Congrats! This letter is to inform you first that Mr. Wadsworth and I shall be wed May 22 at our estate. He is extremely excited to meet you, so you shall come to dinner on saturday. At the wedding you are allowed to bring whichever guests you desire, but please come alone for this dinner since we will be discussing family matters.

See you soon,
Mum.

He groaned and threw his head back. He didn't mind his mother getting married repeatedly, and due to contrary belief, she doesn't kill her husbands, yet he doesn't enjoy the actual wedding part of the marriage. It's boring and the vows are always along the same lines, nothing exciting.

Of course, he's happy his mum is enjoying herself, but it comes to where it's too much in too little time. It's a compulsion that she has, meeting a man and marrying him, and Blaise is tired of it.

"What's up?" Camden says as he puts his letter back in the envelope it came in.

Blaise bit the inside of cheek. "My mum's getting married again."

That was all it took for his two friends to look at eachother and high five. "Hell yes! Staying with Mrs. Zabini for a week and seeing her every day!" Draco said after a few seconds.

Camden laughed. "My prayers have been answered." He put his hands together like he was actually praying.

And now Blaise had to go home on the weekend, which didn't appetize him in the slightest. His mother's partners were always dismissive of and his her, which pissed him off for a while week after he got ignored by yet another prospect. Despite this, he wouldn't disappoint his mum, so he would travel friday and make arrangements to get to the Zabini estate.
