Today's the day!

The day we meet my family.  Hurray! Did you sense the sarcasm?

I let out a sigh,"The quicker I start the day the quicker it'll end". The way Hermione kept repeating this mantra you'd think that it was her lifeline. 

Something light pressed on her temple. Hermione's eyes snapped open and she looked up. It was Draco kissing her temple. She turned towards him and pulled him close for a kiss.

"I don't know how I'll manage through the day." She said after breaking the kiss. 

Draco placed his hand on her chin and tilted her head, so that he could look him in the eye

"Hey, we want none of that, love. You're an amazing and beautiful person. If they can't see that then that's their lost. And besides how bad can they be."

Oh if only he had an idea. I gave him a look and reluctantly started to get ready for the day.

I really hope Draco didn't jinx it.

In another part of the country, there was a mother trying to get her family in order.

"Darling, no- don't. Not that dress. Let me make breakfast, love. No, Shay no-" She was really hoping that this reunion might be a chance at a vacation, but she guesses not. What with her family not being able to do a single thing without her. She just hopes they don't embarass her.

That is what is going through Viviane Granger's mind. 

That is also when a train of thought stopped her movements. 

"Shayla!" She suddenly called for her daughter. Her daughter emerged from the stairs, "Yeah, mum?"

"What were you doing in my study a few days ago?" She asked skeptically.

Her daughter bit her lip, "Umm doing my homework?"

Viviane Granger closed her eyes and took a breath, "Ok, first of all you're fidgeting, sweetie. Second, you're biting your lips, stop that. Third, why did you phrase that as if you're asking me. Tell me right now, what you were doing in my study." She opened her eyes and they seem to be piercing her daughter's soul. 

Shayla Granger gulped. She knows the look in her mother's eyes. She knows she's in trouble. She knows she can't escape her mother's wrath this time. She can only hope she survives it. Out of the corner of her eyes she sees her sister, who looks like she's enjoying the show. Oh she's so gonna get it, if onl-

"Don't even think about pinning this on your sister." Her mother voice sounds venomous.

She took a breath and quickly said "OkAY, I might've  sent some of the invitations to some famous, rich people...." She closed her eyes waiting for something, anything. But when nothing came, she took a peek at her mother.

Viviane was the embodiment of rage at that moment. Yet she didn't do anything, she just walked past Shayla, and carried on like normal. She was calm. Like the calm before the storm, and Shayla saw this.

"They might not even see it, mom." She whispered. Trying desperately to calm her mother.

"For your sake, I hope not." Her mother's voice came as a reply.

A/N So like I do have questions, do you like DC or Marvel.....cause idk maybeeee I can bring some other fictional characters? This is just a suggestion but who knows. 

Cause from the other story "Happier" you should know I do like the Maribat thing going on on Tumblr. Or maybe something with Marvel might be fun.
