Malfoy Neighbors

Retruning What Was Taken-Year 1 Chapter 13

You sat with Sam, Kathey and Sebastian in a caparment on the Hogwarts Express back to London. Malfoy and his friends were some were on the train but you didn't care to find him. He was still acting strangely cold towards you.

When the train stoped, you all said your good byes and headed your separate ways. You found your parents on the other side of the piller you had to go threw to get to platform 9 3/4.

When you got home and opened the door, (n/n) ran and jumped into your arms. You missed this little guy. You took the niffer to your room and (n/n) ran under your bed and pulled out a bunch of stuff.

"Where did you get these?" You said picking up a few rings and a neckless.

"That's some of the stuff he kept bringing home." You're mom said from the door way. "I'm not sure where from, but I'm guessing the neighbors."

"(N/n), that's a bad niffler." You said sternly. "We don't take things that don't belong to us." You figured you would have to gives them back. But to which neighbor? You assumed that was your moms problem in returning the items too.

The Malfoys weren't your only neighbors. You had another one on the other side of the property; an old man who was blind. (N/n) could get in, take what he wanted, and get out agian without being seen. You crawled under your bed to see what else your niffler had under there.

"Well, it's not our blind old neighbor you stole these things from. Was it?" You said finding your way back out. (N/n) looked at the floor. He knew he was in trouble. "Now I have to talk to Draco, without his father finding out that you were the one whose been stilling from him."

The next day, you put all the stuff, that your niffler took, into a box. Put on your winter jacket and picked (n/n) up. "You're comming with me." You told him and headed over the the Malfoy manner.

You weren't sure how to talk to Draco when you couldn't get past the gate. You stood there holding the niffler and the box. You didn't want to send (n/n) in, to find Draco like before because he was in trouble. Just then you saw an elf pulling a bundle of wood in the snow.

"Hey!" You called to it. The elf stoped what it was doing, disappeard and reappeared in front of the gate.

"Who are you? If Dobby is found talking to you, Dobby will have to burn his hands in the fire." The elf said.

"Don't do that, I just need to talk to Draco." You told Dobby. "Could you let him know that he has a friend out here?" Dobby looked scard but said "ok" and disappeared again.

"Well that was strange." You said looking at (n/n). The gate swung open. You slowly and cautiously entered the grounds. Draco stepped out of the front door.

"Hurry up and get in" he hollered to you. You ran the rest of the way and into the house. It was dark and gloomy inside. "Fallow me." Draco said and you complied. He led you up two flites of stares and into a room at the end off the long narrow hall. The room wasn't nearly as dark as the house but was still dark. Did they not like to let the light in?

"This is my room." Draco said shutting the door and opening the blinds. It wasn't as big as your room. There was a poster on the wall above his bed of the Slytherin creast. That was all he had on the walls. "What are you doing here?" He asked you. You put (n/n) down and handed him the box.

"I found these under my bed, I think they belong to your family. I found the creast with an 'M' on it. I figured it was the Malfoy family creast." You said. He looked into the box and nodded.

"Yeah, these are ours. I'll give them to my mom so she can put them away before my father realizes they're missing." Draco said putting the box on his bed.

"Now that I'm here, maybe you'll answer my question." You told Draco. He looked at you terrified. "What did I do for you to be so cold to me? I feel like you hate me when indeed I should be the one to hate you."

Draco turned red. It was so dark in the room it was hard to see him though. "I don't hate you. You did nothing."

"Then what gives?" You asked, but just then you heard the front door.

"Get (n/n), and hide" Draco said opening his closet door. "That would be my father, If he finds you here, we're both in trouble." You picked up the niffler and hid. Draco handed you the box and shut the door. You couldn't see what was happening but you heard Mr. Malfoy.

"The Perkinsons will be here for dinner tonight." He said. "And you will come down to great them this time." Mr. Malfoy sounded even more cold then you thought he could be, if that was possible. The door shut again and Draco opend the closet door.

"He's gone." Draco told you taking the box from your hand.

"I'll send my owl to you later tonight, ok? But, you should go before he comes back in." You looked him still holding (n/n). "DOBBY" Draco called out to the elf. The elf popped into the his room.

"Yes, master Draco?" Dobby asked.

"This is our house elf." He told you before asking Dobby to take you home. "I need you to take (y/n) and her per niffler back to their house next door." The elf nodded and grabbed your arm. "And do not tell my parents she was here." Before you knew what happend you, (n/n), and Dobby were standing the garden.

"Thanks Dobby." You told the house elf.
