Chapter one
"I got in! I got in!" Ali yelled, holding her Hogwarts acceptance letter in her hands while her adorable husky puppy, Jacob barked happily. Ali was talking to her best friend, Tatiana Diggery.
"Me too, maybe we will be in the same house!"
"You know just as well as I do Tati, that I'm going to be in Slytherin." Ali sounded a bit upset that she wouldn't be in the same house as her best friend. She knew very well she would be in Slytherin considering everyone in her family has been in Slytherin.
"In your dreams Allen," Draco Malfoy, the son of Ali's parent's closest friends, Lusius and Narsissa Malfoy said. Ali grew up with Malfoy. She knew him her entire life and he got on her nerves like you wouldn't believe! Ali couldn't believe her parents were leaving her here. Just Malfoy and her while they and the Malfoy's went on a 'trip'. "Get off the phone. My Father wants to speak with us before he leaves." Malfoy demanded from the doorway to the room Ali always stayed in when she stayed at Malfoy manor.
The room was just like every other room in the house. Dark and a bit depressing; the walls were black and the canopy banisters were a dark, almost black, wood. There were curtains hanging from the banisters of the bed and they were a deep emerald green. The floor was cold with oak panels and a big emerald rug in the middle of the room with silver swirls covering the circular runner. There was a dresser to the left from the door. Ali was sitting at a desk on the farthest wall from the door talking to Tatiana. To her right beside the bed was a vanity. Every piece of furniture was made of the same dark wood as the bed.
Ali rolled her eyes. "Tatiana, I'll talk to you later. The prince of pain in my butt is making me get off the phone."
"Ok. Talk to you later." Tatiana replied in a chipper voice like she always did.
"Bye." She replied before she hung up and followed Malfoy down the stairs. Ali skipped down the stairs acting like the sweet little witch Malfoy's Parents knew her to be. "Good afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy."
"Good afternoon Amara," Lucius greeted Ali with the signature Malfoy smile always saw him wear. "Since you two are going to be the only ones in the house I have a few rules. No throwing parties; don't do anything you will regret later, and have a good time."
"Yes sir." Amara replied with a child's smile.
"Yes Father." Malfoy replied with a frown.
"You may go back to what you were doing Amara."
Ali nodded and went over to her parents' to hug them goodbye "Now remember Amara if anything happens to your mother and I while we are gone. You are to live here with the Malfoy's, Understand?" Her father told her hugging her to his chest.
"Yes Daddy." Ali said happily before her father, her mum and Narcissa Malfoy went into Lucius's office to floo out once Lucius was finished talking to his son. Ali slowly started to walk up the stairs trying to hear what Lusius was telling his son.
"Malfoy, I will not be home before school starts. I need you to remember what I told you and be nice to Amara, do you understand?"
"Yes Father."
"Good. Now go help her get settled in. I will call to check in a few hours."
"Yes Father." Malfoy seemed like a broken recording. Lucuis walked in to his office to join his wife and friends leaving his son standing in the middle of the parlor alone. There was a green light signaling they had all left the mansion and Ali looked over to Malfoy who looked sad, innocent, and vulnerable. He turned around and looked at her standing in the middle of the stair case. "What?" He said nicer then she had expected. He was always so bitter and mean to her.
"N-nothing. . ." Ali went up to her room with Malfoy following close behind, going up to his own room. When Ali walked into her room Malfoy had already entered his. He started screaming. "Malfoy!" Ali yelled worriedly and ran to his room. He was lying on the floor holding his head in his hands. "Malfoy what's wrong?" Ali couldn't help but holding Malfoy to her trying to get him to stop screaming.
Malfoy stopped screaming after a minute, and looked at Ali. It was a bit creepy. "Thank you Amara." He was propped up on the edge of his bed still sitting on the floor, with Ali sitting beside him. He leaned in to be about an inch from her face. "I really appreciate you helping me." He whispered. Ali's heart started to beat out of control and she started to breathe heavily. He slowly moved in to kiss Ali and when their lips met she forgot everything. She didn't realize who she was kissing, where she was, and all about school. Then she felt him smirk agents her lips Ali franticly pulled away. "What?" he asked with a smug look on his face.
Ali ran out of his room before she could say or do anything else. 'EW! He kissed me!' Ali thought. "I need something to eat." She told herself aloud realizing it might get that kiss out of her mind. Ali went downstairs and found Dobby already cooking something. "Hi Dobby!" unlike all the other witches and wizards with house elves Ali believe elves shouldn't be house slaves and should be treated with the same respect as witches and wizards. So she was always nice and polite to them.
"Good afternoon Ms. Allen. Are you hungry?"
"Very much," Ali replied sitting on a stool at the island.
"Will young master Malfoy be joining you?"
"I don-"
"Yes I will." Ali turned to see Malfoy coming down the stairs. He walked over to Dobby and whispered something to him.
"Yes young master." Then Dobby left for the dinning room.
Ali looked at Malfoy with confusion. "What did you tell him?"
"Nothing," He put his arm around Ali's waist and led her to the dim candle light dining room. He lead Ali over to the fire place and pored her some water into a goblet, and handed it to her. "Cheers." He said then clinked his glass to Ali's, and took a sip. He was wearing a silk black button up shirt, unbuttoned two or three times. To show off his sculpted chest, and black jeans. Ali was wearing a tank top and baggy pajama bottoms. "I have something for you."Malfoy took the goblet from her hand and set both the goblets on top of the hearth. Then he pulled her over to a long dark green box sitting on the dinning room table. "Open it." He encouraged.
Ali looked at him confused and took the top off the box, inside was a mini green dress with a plunging V-neck. She took the dress out of the box. "Why did you buy this?"
"For you," He answered simply.
"For me," Ali asked.
"Yes. Why don't you try it on?" He said giving me that creepy smile he had started wearing since Ali turned eleven.
"Because I know you've done something to it."
"I didn't do anything to it Amara, I promise."
"Why did you buy it for me?" She asked a little scared.
"If you go try on the dress I will tell you." Malfoy took the dress from Ali's hands put it back in the box. He snapped his fingers, and two female house elves came into the room. "Help Amara try on this dress," he told the elves but Ali knew what he really meant was, 'Make sure Amara tries on this dress.'
Minutes later Ali was standing in front of a full length mirror looking at her reflection. The two house elves had left. The dress came up half way up her thigh. Ali noticed she didn't have any shoes to wear with the dress so she went over to the box and found a pair of black stiletto heels. She sighed knowing there was some kind of disgusting reason Malfoy bought this slutty dress, put them on and went back down stairs.
Ali noticed Malfoy's face light up when he saw her. "Close your mouth Malfoy you'll attract flies." Ali retorted showing no emotion on her face what so ever. She wasn't pleased with the fact that she was wearing this and he was enjoying it. Malfoy got up, walked over to her and slowly spun Ali around.
"Mmmm. You look better than when you are wearing those muggle clothes!" Ali could tell that wasn't really a complement more than an insult. Ali had some make-up on, and her hair was straightened. Malfoy kept looking at Ali up and down and took her hand in his pulling it up to his lips.
Ali snatched her hand away from him. "Keep your hands to yourself Malfoy." He then started to circle Ali to make sure he saw he from everyone angle. When he got behind her he stopped.
Then he whispered in her ear, "You have a wonderful backside." Ali shuttered from his warm breath agents her ear. He smirked took Ali's hand and led her to the stairs.
Ali stopped before he could lead her up the stairs. She wanted answers now. "Tell me why you bought this dress for me."
"We are having a small party after we get our school supplies later this summer." Malfoy replied calmly.
"And you want me to wear this sluty little thing? Forget it! I'm not yours to dress up like a Barbie!" Even though Ali was a pureblood she was quite fond of muggle culture. She found it fascinating.
"Maybe not but that," he pointed to the dress Ali wore and smiled. "Is all you have to wear my dear." He stated happily, Ali wanted to slap the smirk right off his face but knew better. He would just catch her hand. He knew she would try to slap him.
"Well then I will go shopping right after we get school supplies." She replied confidently.
"Yes, I suppose you could. But you have no money." Malfoy's smirk never went away. It seemed to be fixed on his face.
"Then how am I supposed to pay for my school supplies?" Ali was getting awfully irritated.
"I am buying your school supplies for you with the money my parents gave me, and I'm not buying another dress for you. You either wear that or don't wear anything at all." He smirked surely hopping Ali would pick the second option.
"Whip that smirk off your face Malfoy! You can forget about me wearing absolutely nothing to a party. That isn't going to happen."
He shrugged then went up to his room. Ali went up to her room and changed into a bathing suit. Whenever Ali was stressed she would swim. It was dark outside when she got to the pool, so Ali turned on the pool light and the lights that surrounded it making the whole yard glow and making the water a beautiful crystal blue to match her light green bikini. Ali put her long black hair into a high pony tail, then put on her goggles, dove into the pool from the top of the six foot waterfall, and started swimming laps. Ali got to ten thousand yards when someone grabbed her by her hair and stopped her. Ali gasped inhaling a gallon of water into her lungs. Ali's head was pulled out of the water, and she started coughing.
"What the bloody hell are you doing?" Ali heard Malfoy's voice ask angrily.
"What does it look like?" Ali coughed "I'm swimming."
"Well my father wants to talk with you. You almost got me in trouble because I didn't know where the bloody hell you were." Ali looked up into his eyes and she saw worry and anger they reason why she didn't know.
Ali took off her goggles, and took the phone from Malfoy's hand. "Hello?"
"Hello Amara. I know you can take care of yourself, but I have asked Malfoy to look after you while you stay at the manor. If you plan on doing anything please let him know. We wouldn't want anything to happen to you." It was Lucius just as Malfoy had said.
"Yes sir." Ali replied.
"Thank you. Let Malfoy know I will check in again tomorrow." He hung up and Ali put the phone on the concrete.
Malfoy was looking down at Ali with a smirk once again plastered on his face. "Go away you git." Ali swam over to the stairs and climbed out of the pool. She grabbed her towel off the railing and whipped the water off her face.
Malfoy walked over behind her and watched as Ali dried off. Then he gently without Ali's knowing pulled the string to the top of her bathing suit making it almost fall off. "Malfoy!" Ali quickly put the towel over her chest, and ran into the manor. For rest of the night when Ali tried to sleep all she heard was Malfoy's evil laugh and every time she closed her eyes she saw his stupid little smirk.
