PUREBLOOD

14

the rest of the night is going by rather quickly, I'm having an amazing time and I really don't want it to end. thankfully, no one has spoken about the pansy situation which I'm grateful for. we are all on the dancefloor now its me, Blaise, Draco, Crabbe, Goyle, Theo and Daphne and we are all partying hard. Daphne grabbed my hand and is pulling me to the table we claimed and the boys follow, messing around as they go.

"are you having a good night?" Daphne yells over the music

"hell yeah! I would be better if we had something to drink though"

she laughed "wait here!" she got up and elegantly skipped out of the room my eyes following her as she does so.

I turn my head and see Draco coming to sit at the wide sofa that our group claimed and he takes a seat next to me "are you having a good night?" he says over my shoulder so I could hear him over the loud music, there aren't many people left and the people that are here are younger, my mother left an hour ago and Daphne's mother went to bed after a few too many cocktails.

"yeah its amazing. are you?" I yell so he can hear

"what?" he yells, clearly he didn't hear me

"I said, yes its been amazing!"

"ohh, good!" he said with a wide grin

I was about to reply but my attention was caught by Daphne who was skipping towards us with two rather large bottles of fire whiskey "I'm back!" she yells causing our group to laugh

Blaise walks over to her and takes a bottle of fire whiskey from Daphne's arms "ill take that" he said with a smirk and Daphne huffs, he gives her a kiss on the cheek and goes over to Crabbe and Goyle who are arranging glasses for us all "everyone grab a glass I would like to raise a toast" Blaise yells to the group and we all stand and grab a glass, he pours each of us a glass and lifts his into the air "to Daphne, she throws kickass parties and has a really hot mum" he says and everyone raises there glasses bar Daphne. we all take a sip and start laughing and Daphne huffs taking a large gulp. I give her a sideways hug and then grab her hand and drag her to the dancefloor where we dance till our feet cant hold us any longer.

its 4 am and I am exhausted, me and Daphne are on opposite couches, Daphne has just dosed off and I am well on my way, I didn't expect to have such a good night, I really enjoyed myself, I look over to the boys who are still sat at the table chatting away, they are pretty drunk but because me and Daphne are so petit its hard for us to hold so much drink. all of a sudden it starts to go dark and I doze off into a deep sleep.

------------

I slowly open my eyes and am instantly blinded by the morning sun, I look around and I don't remember coming here, I look around and notice that all of my friends are here, the king-size bed holds five of us, i am in between Daphne and Draco, he has his arm over my waist and his face nuzzled into my hair from behind, in front, or rather, to the other side of me is Daphne but she is laced across Theo's chest who has his arm around her shoulders, blase is sprawled across the end of the bed face first with an arm hanging off the side of the bed and he is still holding onto the empty fire whiskey bottle, across the room there are two sofas near the fire place that Crabbe and Goyle are both sleeping on snoring frantically. I take another look at all my friends and smile widely, these are my family.

I sit up slowly and carefully, trying not to wake anyone with my movements and Daphne moves a little and turns to my direction she slowly opens her eyes and they widen, she frantically sits up and looks around and when her eyes find Theo she instantly calms. "good morning" she whined while letting out a large yawn

"good morning" I mumble

"okay goodnight" she says while nuzzling back into Theo and closing her eyes and I let out a little giggle. I slip out of the bed carefully and I notice I'm still in last nights dress, I walk over to the bathroom and get into the shower to get rid of the smell of fire whiskey. I spend at least half an hour in the shower enjoying the hot water and when I finish I hop out and walk over to the sink where I brush my teeth. with a click of my fingers I am dressed and free of makeup with my hair up and dry in a simple ponytail. I am wearing a simple pair of black jeans and a black and red Levi's top, with my knee high boots. not a look I usually go for but that's because I'm not allowed, my mother isn't here so I can wear what I want. once I'm ready I don't feel like disturbing the others so I decide to go downstairs to the library to get a book to read, I walk down the stairs to the library, I remember it being just opposite the hall, I take a peak inside the hall, it is already spotless with a few elves walking around and dusting.

I make my way over to the library and scan the bookshelves when I come across one about ancient runes which sounds quite interesting, I walk over to a seat near the fireplace and use my elementals to take some fire from the nearby candle to light the fire near me. and Ill sit and read until the others wake.

"good morning" I hear a raspy voice say I turn my head to see a familiar blonde leaning against the doorframe of the library

"hey, how did you know i was here?" I said questionably

"I uhm saw you leave the room so I got dressed and followed you" he said his face a light shade of pink, he walked over to me and took a seat beside me in the other armchair

"I don't remember going to bed last night" I said with a confused expression

"I carried you. you were completely out of it" he said growing more red

"what's wrong with you?" I said questionable and he cocked his head to the side

"huh?"

"I mean, why are you as red as a tomato?" I said with a gentle laugh

"I uhm, i, don't really know" he said growing even more red, if that's even possible

"is it because we slept in the same bed?"

"what! no.. I've done that plenty of times" he said avoiding my gaze

"then why are you embarrassed?"

"fine I haven't, but even if I did sleep in the same bed with someone I would rather it be you" he said with a gently smile. now its me who's growing red and he lets out a little laugh. "oh, I almost forgot, merry Christmas Ana" he said handing me a small velvet box.

my eyes go brighten and I take the box "I got you something too" I said handing him a larger leather case, his eyes widen as he takes the box "see, you got me an understanding gift and I thought it was only fair if you get one too" he slowly opened the box to find an rare antique wizard watch "it was my grandfathers, it allows you to see what a person fears the most"

"wow, its incredible" he says while inspecting the watch and then he looks at me "its your turn"

I slowly take the bow off of the velvet box and lift the lid of the box, inside there is a beautiful crown, emeralds imbedded in fine white gold and diamonds occupying the edges.

I was speechless.

"Draco." I whispered breathless "its.."

"is it abit much, I get it if you don't-" I cut him off with a long passionate kiss

"I love it." I reply while looking into his icy grey orbs, he gives me a genuine smile

"only the best for my queen" he says and kisses me again, this one goes on for a while, I pull away and take the gift I gave him and place both our gifts on the table, I walk over to him slowly and straddle his lap. he goes in for another passionate kiss, our lips moving together was like magic as I straddled him.

he pulled away, he started planting small kisses down my jaw and neck "your so fucking beautiful" he whispered into my ear sending shivers down my spine, that drove me crazy and I pulled his face up and started kissing with even more passion.

"wow I uhm hope in not interrupting anything" we heard from the door of the library, I jumped up from my straddle position to see Blaise standing at the door with a menacing grin spread across his smug face. I look over to Draco who looks rather dishevelled.

"Blaise, how long have you been stood there" I say panting and avoiding direct eye contact with either of the boys.

"I just got here, question is, how long have you been here?" Blaise replies smugly

Draco stands and recomposes himself "that doesn't really matter Blaise.. we were just exchanging gifts" he says calmly

"yes, looks like it" Blaise says teasingly not losing his stupid grin, I give him a sour glare and his smug face falters "well, uhm I came to tell you that breakfast is ready, unless you'd rather fuck in Daphne's library." and then he turns and disappears from sight

I turn to Draco who is staring at me with an unreadable expression and a small smile on his face. I walk over to him and place a hand on his chest, he puts one finger to my chin and brings my lips to his. "I suppose we had better go to breakfast" he says with a grin on his face. I nod in agreement and we both walk out of the library with our gifts that we exchanged just moments ago.
