Close To Me [Draco Malfoy]

4

Kimberly spent the rest of her weekend in her bedroom. The house elf, Milo, had delivered her meals three times a day.

Draco had been sending her letters everyday. Kimberly didn't read them but place them on the floor by the window. His pet was an eagle owl named Bubo Bubo. A strange name she had thought but the bird enjoyed the treats she gave him and he soon learned to just drop them through the window.

"Kimberly, your mother had requested you to meet her in the library," Milo told her as she appeared in her room. With a flick of her fingers, Milo was gone quicker then she had arrived.

Kimberly sighed. She looked out her window and saw Bubo Bubo was flying over to drop off another letter. Didn't he have a life? she thought, rolling her eyes.

She left her bedroom. She walked down the grand stairs slowly and made her way to the library.

She entered the library and took an inhale of the smell of books. She glanced around the library and found her mother sitting by the fireplace with a cup of tea.

Kimberly sat down across from her. "Hello, mother."

Mary smiled and sat her tea down on the end table. "Darling," she started, "I set up a car to pick you up in an hour, Draco is taking you out for dinner so you two can get to know each other."

"Mother!" Kimberly scolded. She knew her mother would try to control everything in her life.

She stormed out of the library and went back to her room. "Milo!" she called out the house elf's name.

Milo appeared. "Yes?"

"I need help picking an outfit and doing my hair," she told her as Milo clapped her hands.

Milo disappeared into the walk in closet and threw some clothing items on the bed. Kimberly curled her hair with her wand at her vanity table.

"Thank you, Milo," she thanked the house elf. Milo disappeared with a flick of her fingers.

She put on a light layer of make up. She stood from the vanity and went to the outfit laying across the bed. Black boots, black knee high tights, dark green dress with a black belt.

After getting changed, she grabbed her black purse and went downstairs.

She waited outside on the steps for the car to arrive. A black vehicle drove through the gates that opened up. A driver was driving them. She sighed and watched as Draco stepped out, holding the door for her.

"Thanks," she said questionably as she entered the vehicle.

"You look amazing," Draco told her as he sat down and shut the door. The driver drove them away from the manor and to the restaurant. She wondered how that would go...
