Shadow Riddle: A Harry Potter Fan Fic

The Ball

Lucius,
"Your dad wants the necklace back"

"He can't have it"
"Are you sure. Your dad can do a lot worse then my simple leg disorientation spell"
"That was you! I'm sorry but I'm not talking to an idiot"

I storm up stairs and fall onto my bed. What a douche bag I know that Lucius is evil, but this evil! I think before rolling over and going to sleep.

We sit in the back hall either side. Girls on one side, boys on the other.
"Every tri-wizard cup there is the annual ball. You, as the hosting school pupils, will have to learn the respected dance" professor McGonagall says
Ugh, I think as she tells us how to do the dance. Ronald weasly starts laughing and miss McGonagall asks him to demonstrate.
"We are never gonna stop mocking him. Are we Carmen?" Sophie says looking up at Carmen
"Nope, not at all" she says giggling.

"Right, everyone up."

All the girls get up. Some of them just dance with their friends as the boys are staying seated. I look up at Draco and he walks down to the dance floor.
"My lady, may I have this dance" he mocks bowing to me.
"Of course" I make a silly curtsey and take his hand. I feel his fingers gripping my waist. We start to move, our feet in time with the music. We move around the room and now and again he lifts me and brings me down. We move one more round then I fall.

The pain in my leg kills. I scream like a bullet is through my leg. I see Carmen and Sophie rush over to help me up but my leg gives way again.
"Just leave it I can move myself in a bit" I pull myself to a chair and lean on it, not answering Miss McGonagall's questions.

Draco waits next to me until I brave to stand up. He helps me and doesn't leave until I can walk again.

We go out to the bridge and Draco looks right through me.
"It was my farther wasn't it?"

I nod my head and look away. Draco wraps his arm around my shoulders.
"I'm gonna kill him one day, you know that right" I laugh turning to him.
"You wouldn't. Then you would lose me" he laughs with me. I pull him into a kiss.
"What would I do without you?" I ask leaning against him.
"You would still be on the floor in the dance hall" he says leaning on my head.
"Hey I thought you could sell these." I pull out a box of 'potter Stinks' badges. Draco picks up the box and looks at the badges. His face goes into an evil smirk.

'Brilliant. Just brilliant. Potter wont be smiling once I've handed these out." We both laugh and head inside.

SKIP TO THE NIGHT OF BALL!!!
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰

I wait until everyone has left before making my way to the ball. I said I would meet Draco there so its not like I'm ditching him. I have my dress from last Christmas on and a pair of black tights to cover up my scars. I strap on my heels and walk down to the ball. The hall is covered in candles and white decorations. Gross, ug-er-ly

I see Draco and head down the steps. I'm surprised he showed up at all, the fact the ball was basically for Harry Potter. I take Draco's arm and walk over to the dance floor. You can do this shad, I tell myself, work through the pain.
"You can do this" Draco whispers in my ear

"I know" the music starts and the four tributes start dancing, followed by head teachers, then kids. Draco pulls me in and we dance 3 rounds before leaving. We go to the stones over looking hagrids house and sit down. I pull out a bottle of butter beer and some chocolate. I pop the top off the bottle and take a sip.
"Ah, you want some?" I ask passing the bottle to Draco who takes a sip, then a gulp.
"Yum" he laughs and pops a choc in my mouth then takes one himself.
"Who needs a ball, hey" I say leaning into him.
"Wanna dance?" Draco says standing up.

"Okay" he pulls me up and we do the normal dance. Then we get quicker and try new moves. We keep on falling over until an owl drops a leeter on Draco's head.
"Its yours" he sighs

I rip open the envelope and look inside. A price of black paper with green writing is in side. It reads:

Dear Miss Riddle,
I have a message from your dad.
Hand over the necklace or talk to moodey. Take your pick before its too late.
From,
The rat.

"Who's it from?" Draco says

"I uh, don't worry" I scrunch up the letter and put it in my bag. Moodey. Mad Eye Moodey. I could kill everyone or go see mad eye moodey. Who knows. Maybe mad eye isn't all he seems. Actually.

He is mad.

He has a weird Eye.

He is moody.

In fact he is exactly like he seems. But I'm not risking my friends life for the sake of meeting moody.
