Note: I don't own anything of the harry potter universe. It all belongs to J.K. Rowling.
Author note: This is my first attempt to write a fanfic. So bear with me. I'm sorry for any spelling mistakes or other grammar mistakes but English is not my mother langue. I could use a Beta, anyone? I hope you enjoy the first chapter!
Chapter 1: At King's Cross
She could have hexed herself for being late. It was her one chance at a decent job and now she would be horribly late if she didn't catch that train on time.
'Thank God that it hasn't started raining yet' she thought when she looked at the dark sky above her. It was not her day so arriving soak wet on the interview for the job (mind you her dream job) was not something she would like to add on her list of 'my bad luck or just my own stupidity'. She slept through her radio alarm (for the very first time), made sure she had a huge whole in her panties, twice and managed to spill coffee on her blouse.
'And now I am probably going to slip and fall on my face' she thought while she made her entrance at King's Cross station.
She couldn't believe her luck, the train was still on the board. Quickly she broke into a run to platform 9.
When she arrived she just saw all the doors getting closed and the train starting to leave. She cursed under her breath 'Shit, shit, shit, what now?'
Her brain quickly scanned through all the options:
she could catch the next train, apparate there or just call she wouldn't come. 'No', she thought, 'the last option is no option. I don't quit! Maybe I should just apparate.' She hated it. She always had this feeling that her guts would come out when she apparate. Hence the train.
She was just about to take out the address when she saw this little boy standing next to her. He was about 4 or maybe 5 and hot tears were rolling over his cheeks. He stood there completely lost and alone.
'Ow my, it looks like he lost his parents.' She thought while heading to the boy. He had Hogwarts robe's on but was definitely too young to attend her former school. Definitely a wizard.
Then it hit her 'Today is September the first! All students would be leaving with the train today at platform 9 ¾. His mother probably lost sight of him in this chaos.'
When she reached the boy she knelt down so she could directly look into the child's eyes. He had magnificent blue eyes who where now all watery.
'Hello, young boy' she said unsure of how to continue. 'My name is JulieWellscot. What is yours? Did you lose your mommy?'
His eyes turned big as saucers and said 'I have no mommy.' And continued crying
'And what about your daddy?' she said nicely. 'I donno where my daddy is. I just went playing with some kids who had this cool shining ball while my daddy went to get my friends forgotten owl' he said while making the necessary swaying with his arms.
'I had to stay with Raphael but the shining ball was so cool!'
'And then they were gone' he said with a sigh tears streaming from his face again.
'Oh my, his father must be sick with worry' she thought before asking him how his father looked like.
'He is very tall' the boy stuck his hand in the air to emphasize how tall. 'He is blond, really blond and smells like my daddy' the boy said proud of his own description.
'Well maybe you could tell me what he wears?' she asked not being much wiser out of the description of the boy. 'Black robes' the boy answered immediately. 'What a pity he didn't wear a pink tutu?' Julie thought 'than we would at least recognize him immediately. Damn Jules now is not the time to make jokes.'
'Maybe we could go and search for your daddy? He will probably be at platform 9 ¾ worrying sick about you.' She said softly to him.
'My daddy told me not to go with strangers' the boy replied imitating the strict voice of his father.
'Well, that is very wise of your daddy but I am no stranger anymore. You know my name know and I promise to help you find your father. I will do anything in my power to bring you back to him.' Julie said honestly. The boy staring at her with doubt shimmering in his eyes.
'What about I give you my wand. So I can't harm you and you can keep it if I don't keep my promise. You may even break it if I don't keep my word.' Julie pulled out her wand pointing the handle to the boy. Who wrapped his fingers around it hesitantly. But eventually taking a firm grip on it.
'Well, at least he trusts me and now I am going to make sure he doesn't lose that trust. Julie stood up to look around for any man in a wizard robe with blond hair. No such she suddenly felt a little hand grasp hers and pulling her down.
'My name is Leo Malfoy.' He said proud.
'Of course Malfoy, the rich pureblooded Malfoy line. Draco Malfoy was sometimes in the newspapers. Luckily with a picture. This would make her search easier. At least if his father is Draco Malfoy' she thought.
'What is the name of your father, Leo?' Julie asked.
The boy stood up straighter and answered with a high voice 'Draco Malfoy.' The boy was clearly imitating his father. Well, the boy surely looked like him.
'Well, let's start looking for your father than.' Julie said.
They walked to the wall where stood 9 ¾ hand in hand. Julie was about to step trough the wall when she felt that her right hand didn't seem to cooperate. She turned around to see Leo standing still.
'What's wrong Leo? There is nothing to be afraid of we will find your father and we can just walk through that wall if that is what you are afraid of.' She said reassuringly. Leo didn't make any movement.
'Shall I pick you up?' she asked Leo.
He just nodded and stretched his hands up in the air. Julie picked him carefully up and concentrated on getting through the wall. When they were on the other side of the wall, she wanted to put him down but he didn't want to let go.
'He is probably scared that I'll leave him.' She thought concerned.
Unfortunately there were many people. She scanned the crowd but didn't see mister Malfoy anywhere. She began to walk through the crowd when all of a sudden she heard.
'Damn it you woman get out of my way!'
'See where you are walking you idiot!'
'Leo where are you? Leo!'
Suddenly the boy in her arms began to stir and almost jumped out of her arms.
She quickly put him down and began to chase after him. Making sure that the boy would find his father.
What she saw then made her heart melt.
Leo yelled 'Daddy daddy I'm here'
While Draco turned around to lock eyes with his son. He knelt down while his son threw himself at him. They hugged for a long time and then he picked his son up and turned around ready to leave.
But Leo said 'Wait daddy Julie!' while pointing his finger at her.
Little did she know that this was the moment that her life would change forever. Draco turned around to look into the direction his son was pointing.
'She helped me find you daddy.' Nodding in comprehension he walked gracefully over to her.
She was stunned her heart had just melted and now one of the most beautiful men she ever saw was walking towards her.
'He sure as hell looks better than in any picture I ever saw' she thought glad not all thoughts just left her head.
He had silver blond hair, eyes like molted silver with tears sticking to them, a pale complexion, full lips and an aristocratic nose. Her eyes now scanning his body she could see how his shirt clinged nicely on his flat abdomen and broad shoulders. He was lean but with perfect bum at least that is what she thought as she couldn't see it. His robes billowed after him which made it extra dramatic. Yes, he was definitely one of the most handsome men she saw.
He came to an abrupt halt before her and nodded slightly in acknowledgement.
'Draco Malfoy. I would like to thank you for helping my son.' He said stiffly.
'Those purebloods she thought while snapping out of her daydream of the perfect man, sorry body'
'Julie Wellscot. It was my pleasure Mister Malfoy. Anything I can do to help a child in need.' She answered back at the exact same tone.
'You can call me Draco and ...'
'Daddy Daddy can she come with us to the fishes?' Leo stretched his hands out towards Julie. When he would almost fall if he would stretch any further Julie complied and took him in her arms.
'Leo, you cannot interrupt grownups while they are talking and I don't know if miss Wellscott has time to accompany us.'
'Julie, you have huh?' Leo asked his bright blue eyes pleading. She didn't know what to do. Leo seemed such a nice kid.
'I am sorry but I have a job interview in half an hour.'
'Can I come too?' Leo pleaded 'I can answer questions too.' Julie laughed.
'I'm sure you can but they can hire only one person. And if you come with me they will probably hire you' she said smiling at the boy.
Leo pouted 'Why can't I come? Daddy?'
'Well boy maybe you could suggested to the lady we would like to accompany her to her job interview. She could come with us in the carriage.'
'Yes, that's a good idea daddy. So Julie can we bring you there with our car... carria... carriage?' he asked sweetly.
'Well,' Julie thought 'there can't be really anything wrong with that but I don't know.'
'Leo, I don't know but...'
Draco interrupted before she could finish her sentence. 'We insist. It is the least we can do seeing you helped us. '
'Okay, thank you, Mister Malfoy. And Leo can I please have my wand back. I kept my promise.' She smiled at him.
'Only if you go with us to the fishes.'
'Well she wouldn't dare to take the smile of Leo's face so she agreed. Beside the boy was adorable! Beaming the boy gave her wand back.
'Follow me then' Draco said. Julie followed him with Leo on her arm. He kept on hugging her and saying
'Julie is coming to the fishes! She is coming! We are going to see such big sharks! They are so big!' He gestured with his arms Draco walked beside her and heard his son talking with such enthusiasm. He hadn't seen his son so happy in a long time. Just because of Miss Wellscot. He would do anything to keep his son happy like this.
Note: Please REVIEW! It would really give me an idea whether my writing is any good or the story even. So I'm asking kindly to review!
