I didn't speak to Draco the whole way to Malfoy Manor. After what he said about Justin why should I?I just stare out the window as we pace the country side. Once we reach Malfoy Manor I run to my room. This time neither Narcissa nor Lucius was waiting for me. It was just an empty hall. I shut the door behind me. I end up sitting on the floor. I started to fiddle with the ring around my finger. I look down remembering who gave it to me. Draco. I pull it off my hand with a bit of a struggle.
I throw it on the bed. I instantly feel bad. No actually I shouldn't. Draco is not my boyfriend. I don't like Draco. Draco is a pureblooded asshole. Its actually quite surprising that I haven't killed him yet. I'll just stay here for a while. So I pull out my drawing pad (no surpise). What should I draw? I look around the room trying to find something to draw. On the table I see a tall vase. For some reason I feel the need to draw it. I pull a pencil out of a random pocket in my bag and start to do a rough sketch. I get about half ways through when I here a small knock on the door. Without me even saying anything the door opens. I turn around half expecting to see a house elf but instead I see Draco creeping around the door. "Hi"He says with a small smile on his face. "What?Killed a few kittens today?"I ask turning back to the vase.
"I...I w-was wondering how you were"Draco asks. I ignore him. "Listen I wanted to say...well....I wanted to say....you know that thing when you regret something?"Draco asks he voice raising at the end of his question. "Sorry?"I say turning to face him. "Yeah...um that-"Draco starts but I cut him off "Really?That's it. You couldn't even appologise. Do you even think that counts?"I snap. Draco looks shocked as I walk him to the door. "Rora...I..Wait..."Draco stutters. "Come back when you can actually say sorry. And its Charlotte"I slam the door. I lean my head against the door. Sometimes me temper gets the most of me. No. Draco deserves that. He was being a ass. He called Justin a Mud-blood. I honestly hate having a blood status.
Dinner was awkward that night. I sat next to Draco completely ignoring him. Lucius and Narcissa sat at either end of the table. "Charlotte how did you like the dress I sent you.I hope it wasn't too big. Not everyone has such a slim figure as you"Narcissa says breaking the silence. "It was lovely.Thank you"I say smiling. Narcissa has always been kind to me. She acts like I'm not a Gryffindor. She used to be a Black so this comes as even more of a surprise. We finish up dinner and I walk back up to my room. I flop down on my bed. I hear a slight tap on the window. I look up from my black bedsheets. An owl. I smile. I know straight away its from Justin. I slide up the window and let the owl in. I untie the letter from his leg.
Dear Charlotte
How are you?I hope the Malfoy's are being kind to you. I mentioned you at dinner and Mum went crazy. She asked me what house you were in, if you were a muggle born like me. She doesn't know alot Mum doesn't but she seems to like you. Merry Christmas! I'll see you soon.
Love
Justin
I smile at the letter. I write a reply quickly
Dear Justin
I'm good thanks.How are you?Yeah I'm alright here at the Malfoy's. How's Christmas back home? Hope I don't cause your mum to rip her hair out. I've ignored Draco mostly. I'll write you again if anything happens.
Love
Charlotte
I tie the letter back onto the owl's leg and givet he owl a stroke before it flies off. I close the window. I change into pjamas and slip into bed. I sleep soundly knowing that I've spoke to Justin.
Thanks for reading.Hope you enjoyed. Follow us and follow the spiders.
