I Just Wanted to be Free

*knock, knock*

I wake up and get up from the bed. Dobby comes in. "Master has sent to wake you breakfast will be served soon." I nod and gave Dobby a smile.

"I will be down in a few minutes." Dobby nodded then left and closed the door. I felt a burn sensation down my throat. I grab a glass of water. Helps to ease the sensation. I then get dress and ready. Have my hair in a ponytail. I head down. I see Lucious reading the paper, both Narcissa and Draco being served.

"Good morning."

"Good morning Eliza," Narcissa reply to me first.

"Morning Clumsy" I roll my eyes towards Draco.

"Did you sleep well?" Narcissa ask me as I take my seat next to Draco

"As well as I could." I begin serving my food on my plate. Dobby then hands me a glass of chocolate milk. I whisper thank you to him. We ate breakfast and it was going to be time to leave soon.

"Eliza go and grab a sweater we will be leaving soon." I nodded towards her and went up to my room. I grabbed my letter and then look at the list of requirements.
