~welcome to our home~

~Emily~

I was fast asleep, but at the same time, I was awake. Does that make any sense? It probably doesn't.

I heard my dad's voice. I was having a vision! I hadn't had one of those in months.

"Dad?" I breathed

"Emily! I don't have much time, so let's make this quick." He rushed, "I assume The Malfoy's informed you of the task at hand?"

I nodded and listened intently.

"I need you to keep a close eye on the Potter kid. You don't have to be friends with the filth, but make sure to know his plans." He said quickly, looking behind him every couple of seconds.

I rolled my eyes and sighed. I wasn't going to survive if I had to get anywhere remotely near Potter, or better yet, he wouldn't survive.

I heard voices and footsteps behind my dad.

"I have to Princess. I love you," And with that, he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

I sighed and I almost broke down in tears, "No, make dad proud, show no sappy emotions." I whispered to myself.

I took a deep breath. Inhale, exhale.

I regained myself and put on a stone mask to cover up my emotions. I looked at one of my side tables and read the clock.

"3:04," I whispered to myself.

I laid in my bed, tossing and turning. This wasn't going to work. I couldn't fall asleep.

As quietly as I could, I slowly got out of bed. And left my room. I made sure not to step on squeaky floorboards, and I silently walked to Draco's room.

I knocked as quietly as I could. I heard no answer, so I took it as an invitation to enter.

"Draco?" I murmured

I watched as he stirred in bed, he rubbed his eyes and looked up, "Emily?" he asked squinting

"I'm sorry Draco, but I had another vision, I saw my dad." I whimpered. Draco was the only person to whom I felt that I was able to show true emotion.

Draco silently nodded his head and rolled over on his bed. It was king-sized so we both fit without touching each other.

I laid down and hugged him.

"G'Night Draco," I whispered, suddenly feeling tired.

I woke up in a very uncomfortable position on the floor.

I groaned and sat up. I looked up to the bed, where Draco was comfortably spread out on the bed, peacefully sleeping. I reached up a turned on the lamp beside his bed.

I pulled a pillow out from under his head and began to hit him with it, "YOU. HOGGED. THE. BED. AGAIN!" I yelled all while hitting him.

"I'm sorry," he groaned, adjusting to the light.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in" I yelled

In came the house-elf, Dobby. "Master Narcissa told Dobby to tell the children, to get ready for Hogwarts."
