I was back to laying on my bed all day again.
"What's that?" My mother asked coming into my room
"What's what?"
"That" she said pointing to Draco's box
"A ring" I casually said
"From?"
I sighed, "Draco"
"Oh I'm sorry darling, talking about Draco though, your father decided to forgive the Malfoys"
"Why?"
"For what Draco did for you"
I sighed again
"Sorry, I was checking in, I'll go now"
"Yep".
*knock knock*
"Who's there?"
"Harry Potter"
"Harry Potter who?"
"Harry Potter's coming to see you"
"That was a bad joke" I said as Harry came in my room again
"Ok I'll try another then" he said and went outside again
*knock knock*
"Harry just stop"
*knock knock*
"Harry!"
*knock knock*
"Fine, who's there"
"Draco Malfoy"
"Harry! you know I'm feeling sad about that now!" I screamed
"Just say it" Harry hissed
"Draco Malfoy who?" I rolled my eyes, uninterested
"Draco Malfoy's coming to see you"
"That was even worse Harry and no he's not, he's DEAD, how many times do I have to tell you Harry? D.E.A.D. DEAD"
"Is he though?" Harry asked coming back in
"Yes" I buried myself under the blankets, all of a sudden, Harry just jumped on my bed and hugged me
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HARRY!" I screamed
"Think again" Draco laughed
"Draco?"
"Yes, it's me"
"I'm in that dream again, aren't I?"
"What dream?"
"The one I'm having now"
"Your not dreaming Scarlett"
"Then why are you here?"
"Because I'm not dead"
"B- but I saw..." I stammered, tears of joy we're pricking my eyes
"We figured out" Harry said "that it was someone else in polyjuice potion"
"But who?"
"That's exactly the question" Harry started pacing my room "who could it be?"
"But why wasn't Draco anywhere for the last week then?" I asked
"My father kept me in my manor"
"But why? You were making me depressed you know"
Draco squirmed a bit, "they- wanted me to- meet..." he hesitated
"Yes?"
"Astoria" he said it cautiously
"Who?"
"Astoria Greengrass"
"But why?"
Draco hugged me "t- they want m- me to- to- to..."
"What's wrong Draco?"
"They want me to..." he looked at Harry
"They want Malfoy to marry her"
"WHAT?!" I instantly jumped up "WHO DID YOU SAY AGAIN? ASTORIA GREENGRASS?"
He nodded
"WHERE IS SHE RIGHT NOW, WHERE IS SHE?!! WHERE DOES SHE LIVE? DRACO TELL ME!"
"Malfoy, don't, Scarlett's going to kill Astoria for all I know" Harry warned, it was true
"I don't want to marry her anyways" Draco spat
I was going crazy "DRACO TELL ME, DRACO DON'T MARRY HER PLEASE DRACO, I WILL GET THAT ASTORIA, DOES SHE LIKE YOU?"
"Scarlett, calm down" Harry grabbed my arm "Don't worry, we'll figure something out before the marriage date"
I stopped squirming, "DID YOU SAY MARRIAGE DATE? ARE YOU TELLING ME THAT THEY ALREADY ARRANGED IT?" I looked at Draco's hand and sure enough, there was a ring that wasn't mines.
