Me and Draco get on the train. All our friends are staying at Hogwarts so its just us. I'm sit down and take off my jacket. The train station was freezing but the train is like 4000°C.
"So what is happening at this 'party'?"
"The normal thing. People come over. We dress in smart clothes have a chat then I run up to my room and read books and send letters for four hours!"
"And people say I'm sarcastic" I say pulling a face.
"No we will probably have a chat with some of my family, show people around the compartment/shed thing, eat food then maybe watch something."
"Wizards have TV? There is a lot I do not know about my own kind"
"We don't have TV. That's muggles dwelling. No I my cousin has a spell to make a screen thing where you watch people muck around."
"Well that's not confusing at all!"
I stare out the window up at the clouds. I love broom riding, you get to go above the clouds, like birds.
We get off the train and are greeted by Lucius. There is so much one person could say about Lucius:
Mean ✔
Horrible ✔
Blond ✔
The list goes on. He brings us to a black and silver car. Draco reaches for the handle and is about to get in when Lucius prods him with his walking stick.
"Draco don't be rude. Let Miss.Riddle here get in first."
Draco sighs and opens the door to let me in. I smile and sit nervously in the back seat next to Draco. He suddenly looks quite tired.
"So Shadow, what conflict caused you to be without home for Christmas." Lucius asks looking into his back mirror.
"My foster parents wouldn't look after me because I'm 'special'" I say in a very snappy tone. Lucius has a grin on could make grown men cry.
"Oh dear. But best be rid of muggles. Its such a same your farther has gone"
I twitch. Lucius grins back
"Of course you of all people would know my farther quite well. Wouldn't you, Lucius?"
His grin stops and Draco taps me. I turn and Draco shakes his head in a don't mess with my dad kind of way.
When we get to Draco's house you can tell that Lucius is 'well paid". The house has 5 stories (I think) and is painted black. The floors are tiled with black, shiney bricks.
"Woah" I say as I walk through the front door. Both Draco and his farther look quite smug.
"Draco show Miss. Riddle to her room."
"Yes farther"
Draco shows me up a wide stair case into a thin corridor over into a large room.
"This is my room. Yours is through that door" Draco points to a Black (surprise surprise) door. I walk through into a dark purple room with a chest of draws and a big kings sized bed.
"Ah" I sigh as I flop onto my bed. I hear a knock on the door and a tall woman walks in.
"Hi you must be shadow." The lady says giving me her hand. " I'm Draco's mum but you can call me Narcissa."
"Hi Narcissa" I say as I shake her hand. Its cold but warm if that makes any sense to anyone.
"i was wondering if you had a dress for the party tomorrow or did you need to buy one?"
"I have got a dress but I'm not sure if it still fits" I say looking at the size twelve dress which never fit me hanging limply on the hanger.
"Well we don't want you to be squashed. How about we go shopping tomorrow and we will get you a new dress."
"That would be great thank you" I answer politely, not wanting to seem rude.
