Ruined (Dramione)

VIII - Late Visitor

Everyone went home because it's already late. Ron and Lavender left as soon as the sun sets, while the Potters, Zabinis, the Weasleys and my parents left just as the clock stroked seven pm. And Luna, Neville and Angelina left after 8pm. Narcissa was the only one remaining, talking with Scorp and opening his gifts. I can see she's very fond of Scorp for according to her, the childhood version of Draco, minus the bossy attitude.

I was cleaning the table when suddenly the doorbell rang.

"I'll get it mummy! It must have been Aunt Pansy!" I just sighed and nodded at him.

It seems that he likes Asha too. Merlin's beard they are too young.

"Am I late?" Narcissa and I looked at each other upon hearing that voice.

We both know who owns that voice.

"I didn't tell anything to him about Scorp." She said.

My hands are cold and trembling while walking towards the door.

Then I saw him. The gray eyes that used to mesmerize me before. The gray pair of eyes that possess its own Imperius Curse.

Standing in my doorstep in a black 3-piece suit. Still dashing and handsome as ever. Maturity suits him very much.

"Mummy? You know this man? He looks like Grandmummy. And we had the same eyes and hair." Scorp said. He is looking at Narcissa and Draco.

"Scorpy, can you go to your room please?" I asked Scorp then he nodded to me and went inside. I still saw him picking up his remaining unwrapped gifts before he went upstairs.

"What are you doing here Draco?" I asked.

"What's this, Mother?" he said, ignoring my question. I looked at the parchment Draco was holding.

It was the hand-made invitation Scorpius made for his guests.

"Where did you get that?" Narcissa said, snatching the parchment.

"I went to your room, looking for you and I saw this on top of your bed." He said while looking at me.

"Go home, Draco. You certainly don't have a business here." Narcissa said.

"No Mother. I will certainly not. And I do have a business here. Miss Granger and I have talk." He said.

Narcissa held my hand and dragged me inside, leaving Draco outside.

"Are you sure you can talk to him?" she asked.

"Yes, I can manage. Thank you Narcissa." I said then I hugged as she hugged me back.

"Just owl me if you need anything okay?" she said before disapparating.

I went outside and I saw Draco sitting comfortably in one of the chairs there.

"Now what?" I asked him.

"Perhaps you would like to sit first, Miss Granger? We certainly have many matter to discuss so it would be tiring for you stand all the time." he said while grinning at me.

So I pulled the chair in front of him and took a seat.

"What now, Malfoy? I'm quite busy." I said.
