CHAPTER 17

“Are you kidding me?” Shrieked a beautiful tall blonde girl.

Narcissa and Lucius shook there head in agreement. Neither could deny what their only son has done.

‘I’m sorry but yes the marriage to our son is off. He married another. There is nothing we can do.” Replied Lucius as he sat down behind his desk.

Narcissa was white as a ghost, she looked at her husband. Her hands were folded in her lap, trying her best to maintain her behavior.

“No! No! I refuse to believe this is over! He was supposed to marry me! Not some stupid Mudblood!” Kelley Parker stormed around the room, kicking a house elf as it hid near by.

The elf whimpered and crouched down. “Oh suck it up you filthy rat!” Her nostrils flared. “How the bloody hel* can he choice her over me, ME?!”

Lucius shook his head. “We believe they have been together for sometime now. We told you she might be a threat but we were not sure.”

“How could he marry someone and have no one find out and stop it?! My father is not going to like this. The Malfoy family, Black and everyone else you are related to will suffer!”

Narcissa shrieked and covers her thin lips. Kelley shot her a dirty look. “That’s right either you destroy this marriage. Or terrible things will happen to your family and your son will be the first to go.”

Kelley slammed the door behind her. Lucius looked at his wife. “We will be fine….” But Narcissa could tell he was just as scared as her.

“Oh mione…” Gasped Ginny as she stepped out of the dressing room. Hermione and Ginny were trying on dresses for the spring ball.

“What?” Hermione peered her head over the dressing room door, trying to find the red head.

“Look I really like this one” Ginny was wearing a long halter top dress, it was gold with sparkles.

“Very cute!” Hermione went back to her dresses and shuffled through them. “Who are you taking to the ball?”

Ginny stepped up on the platform and danced in front of the three mirrors. “Huh? Oh…well I was thinking about asking Harry.”

Hermione looked up. “Oh….”

Ginny smiled and looked at her. “Oh…what?’

“I thought you were going to take Neville, that’s all.” She shrugged her shoulders.

Ginny scrunched up her nose. “Don’t get me wrong, I like Neville but…I like Harry more…and I think he likes me too.”

“Why do you think that?” Hermione was getting a little defensive, she didn’t know what to think since their fight.

“Well I don’t know…he just shows hints that he likes me. You know what I mean right. I bet Draco did it with you too.”

She shook her head, “No. .he never.” She quickly closed her mouth. “I mean yeah…those little….love…hints.” She prayed she was right.

“Yeah! Exactly. Its like they want to tell you they like you, but are to scared too.”

Hermione gave a half smile and went back to her dresses, “oh…I think I found my dress.” She slipped it on and stepped out. Ginny was in awe. “Mione, Draco is going to love that!”

“No!” Whispered Hermione.

“Yes it will be awesome!” Replied Draco.

The were both in the library, studying for exams and looking at homes in Diagon Alley.

Hermione shook her head. “No we are not living in Knockturn Alley, we are living in a nice small flat that will last us two years!”

“Fine how about this one, it is a mile outside of Diagon Alley. It has one bedroom, one bathroom, a full kitchen and living room/dinning room. Sounds good doesn’t it?”

Hermione took the paper into her hands. That one did seem pretty nice, but how much did it cost. She looked at the price and nodded her head. “Wow it is pretty cheap. And it could last us for a while.”

Draco began to write down the number and information. “I better send a letter out fast. Someone will take it if we don’t.”

Hermione picked up her books and carried them to a shelf. “I’ll come with you.”

Draco grabbed a few and helped her put them away. “Are you sure this is what you want?”

“Yeah, it seems good, its in the right money range and--”
