Daphne stayed outside all day. Since six in the morning, all she did was feel the crisp air and staring at the sunrise. The sky turned orange and a hint of pink. Writing down poems and petting Morticia while Katherine was in the garden, picking out flowers."Whats going on here?" Blaise comes in. Daphne turns around. "Your father let me in." He sits down next to her.
"Just thinking." She closes her book, hoping he didn't read the poems or the drawings.
"What do you have on your mind Snape?" Everyone back at Hogwarts believed the two were secretly dating. They both laughed. Blaise loved Daphne as if she was his sister. He cared for her. Like a best friend would. Plus, he would never do Draco like that.
"Just thoughts. I dont want to bore you."
"Thank you." He jokes. She gently pushes him. They both sat there. He wanted to tell her about Draco, but he wasn't going to do so. He respected his decision not to tell her.
"What brings you here?"
"I was around here. Thought I would see you for a bit. I do miss my best friend."
"Who? Pansy? Sorry Blaise, last time I checked she doesn't live here."
"Hilarious Daphne." He cracks a smile. Daphne liked his company. He wasn't as serious as the other Slytherins.
"Ah Blaise, would you be joining us for dinner?" Katherine said as she walks out from the garden.
"Im afraid not Ms. Cox, I have to go home. My mother is waiting for me." We both stood up.
"See you later." I hugged him. He waves as we walked him to the door. Katherine had washed her hands and called my father for dinner. We sat down. No talking, no glances. A familiar owl swooped in, dropping a letter. I caught it, since I was done with dinner, i went to the living room and opened it.
I've been thinking about you. Are busy this evening? You can come to the manor, my father is gone. We can see the stars in the yard. I know how much you like the stars.
DracoMy heart started dancing. I hugged the letter. I swayed back to the table, sitting down.
"Father? I was wondering if I can go to the Malfoys. Draco invited me this evening. Ill be home before you go to bed." I begged, batting my eyes. Lucas and him looked at each other. Katherine just puts her head down.
"You cant go." He sips on his cup.
"Why not?" I asked him.
"Because I said so." I frowned.
"You always have a point on why I cant go. So give me the reason why?" He places the cup down. Avoiding eye contact.
"Because-" Katherine starts.
"Because rumor has it that Sirius Black is still out there. I dont want anything to happen to you." Still looking down. Hes lying. I looked at Lucas, he had his head down too. What does Black have to do with me anyways?
"Lies." I placed the letter down. "Whats the truth? Why cant i go? You dont like Draco? The Malfoys?"
"Because youre too young!" He yelled, making me jump.
