I Love You, I'm Sorry

15: Back Home

Y/N'S POV

Today is the day. I have to go back home and get my dark mark. The only good this is that I get to stay there all week. My stupid father request. Mattheo isn't coming, he will be at the meeting but then he's straight back at school so it doesn't seem odd. 

I pack up a few things to go home and then I apparete to the Malfoy Manor. I freeze at the sight of the house. Draco and Mattheo have to live here? It's so sad no warmth in it at all. At least at my house I have my grandmother. I'd love to be anywhere but here right now. I feel my lips trembling, I look at my arm the last time it will really be blank. I can do this, right? I take a deep breath and open the door.

"Ahh, Miss Raven. Welcome to your first meeting, now, go sit next to Mattheo." he suggested. His dry and pale skin and nose are snake like. How is he Mattheo's father? 

I nodded blinking away tears, I quickly take a seat next to Mattheo. He doesn't look at me. Instead he continues listening to his father.

"Now as you all know, Miss Raven is marrying my son, Mattheo at the end of the year" he added

"So that means Miss Raven must get the mark, Raven come here now and get your mark" he hissed. I quickly get up trembling. He grabs my arm with his icy cold hands. Nothing like Mattheo. His wand touches my arm and he mumbles something, I feel fire on my arm. I just want to break down and cry but I can't do that. It will show pain. 

"Yes, welcome to the family Miss Raven." he says with a creepy smirk no teeth. Ew.

"You can go home now" he hisses pointing to the door. I quickly walk out. I'm Fine. I'm Fine. I'll be alright. I apparate home and run to my room. I jump into my bed and start crying my eyes. I think I cried for maybe an hour. Until I was interrupted by someone. 

"Hi, sorry I've just heard crying and I came to see if you were okay" A boy says. He has pale skin and freckles all over his face, his eyes were large crimson ones with large eyelashes. He had thick chestnut brown hair and thick eyebrows. He had an oval face with cupids bow lips and a long nose. He looked sweet.

"I'm fine, who are you I've never seen you here before?" I added.

"I'm Maverick Rosewood, my dads the gardener and I stay here, your parents offer a home to my family. Well your grandmother does." he says still standing at the door.

"Oh, nice to meet you. I'm Y/n Raven. You can come into my room. I do need someone to talk to." I say hesitantly, I move over on my bed and tap the spot next to me. He quickly closes the door and comes in.

"Now what happened to you Miss Raven?"
