Jens POV
Well I am officially going to be disowned by the only family I have left. Harry is looking absolutely furious he has a vein sticking out of his head and he's grinding his teeth so hard you would think that they were going to crumble. What you ask has caused this fury? Well it's just the fact that I have been paired with the Slytherin prince himself Draco Malfoy to live together as a part of an after war project the ministry has forced schools everywhere to take part in.
He was already angry enough when he found out I was in Slytherin and when he found out I had befriended Draco he flipped. Now I can only imagine what he will do now.
I look at Draco and he is smiling over at me. I can't help but smile back at him. He is my best friend beside Hermione and Katie. Our friendship had really been put through the test. We started off hating each other. Until one time I started not sleeping to well so I headed down to the common where he was we began talking and soon became really good friends. He even stood up for me when all his friends took the piss out of me and insulted me.
Our friendship got really under strain when the war started as we were on different sides until Draco and his parents arrived at Harry and my house asking for our help. They needed our help to change sides. At first I was a bit apprehensive and Harry was completely against it. They understood why. They weren't going to push us to help them. They offered us information and said they wouldn't ask again for help. That's when I knew they knew the mistakes they made and they wanted to change. Harry on the other hand was still apprehensive. He didn't like Draco and still doesn't but he agreed to work with him. At that moment in time I was so happy I had my best friend back and we had vital information for the fight against Voldemort.
Harry was paired with Ginny and Ron was paired with Hermione. Neville the poor thing was paired with Parkinson the walking STI. Katie was paired with Seamus Finnegan. She has such a huge crush on him I was so happy for her.
Dumbledore told us to get into line with our partners to be issued the keys to our house. "Hey Bear" Draco called out to me as so as we met up. He called me bear because I'm both cute and vicious his words not mine. "Hey Dray" I said giving him a big hug.
We got our key to the house and the list of rules and just as we were about to leave Dumbledore made another announcement. "One more thing before you all go to find your houses. The person who you have been matched with is the person you will act as a married couple with for the duration of the year. "
I looked at Draco first to see he had a huge smile plastered on his face. Then I looked at Harry who was staring at him murderously. Me, I was happy with my partner, who wouldn't be he was my best friend. Seeing the look on Harry's face and the fact that he was making his was over to us, I grabbed Draco hand and dragged him out of the great hall. I could hear harry shouting "Jen get your ass back here now."
We were being directed around the Castle until we reached a portkey it was the biggest portkey I have ever seen it was a double decker bus. It brought us to an area like a small town filled with houses as far as the eye could see. We were informed that we would use the portkey to travel back and forth to the castle. We reached our house and mouth dropped it was a beautiful brick home with slate roofs and a garden filled with flowers. Dray opened the house and the inside was just as beautiful as the outside. The sitting room was a decent size. It has a big marble fireplace and hard wood floors. There was a plane brown suite of furniture there. The kitchen was a bit smaller than the sitting room. It was basically all white with the exception of the silver fridge that was stocked full.
We made our way upstairs to see there were only two rooms upstairs. One was the bathroom it has beige tiles covering the walls and floors and a plain white bathroom sweet and on the dresser in the bathroom were my favourite flowers, lilies, just like my mams name. The Last room of the house was a bedroom, the ONLY bedroom. The ministry actually expected us to share a bedroom. I know we were meant to act like a married couple but jeez do they want Draco dead.
"Bear do you see that there is only one bed too." Draco asked.
"Uh huh "I replied.
" I'll sleep on the couch if it makes you uncomfortable." He asked looking at my shocked face.
" No its ok Draco this is as much your house as it is mine. You deserve to sleep in your bed. I'll sleep on the couch."
"Jen I insist "he said putting his arm around me pulling me into a hug.
"How about we change beds every night to be fair? "I asked
Draco's POV
Woohooo I was matched up with Jen! Yes my best friend it was like being matched up with one of the guys. The house was ok nothing compared to Malfoy manor but a lot better than the Syltherin dungeon a lot at least I could have some peace and quiet and be away from Parkinson. I swear that girl is like a fucking leach. She constantly running around screaming "I love you Drakey." "You're my everything Drakey" "Marry me Drakey". I know she won't be around our house at all because she's terrified of Jen , all because she was annoying the shit out of me basically sexually assaulting me and Jen dragged her off me and bet the shit out of her. I'm usually totally against violence against women but this time I was on the verge of pissing myself.
When we arrived at the bedroom after looking around the entire house, we saw there is only one bedroom and only one bed. I saw the look of shock on Jens face. She seems genuinely nervous and I wouldn't want her to especially after all that she has done for me. So I offer to take the sofa. She declined and we decided to change every night to be fair.
Not long after when we were chilling on the sofa playing exploding snap Blaise knocked on the door and Jen answered in her usual way to greet Blaise. "Yo Zambini" she shouted in a Boston accent. He came and had a look of total annoyance on his face.
"I'm fucking on my last nerve with Looney Lovegood. I'm so happy to be with my fellow Slytherins again "he said pulling at his already short hair.
" Blaise be nice Luna is a lovely girl and she's also very intelligent. I know she can be how can I put this a bit quirky from time to time." Jen said trying to calm him down and defend Luna at the same time.
"A BIT QUIRKY! I found her preforming a Nargle hunting ritual outside in the back garden while wearing nothing! I spent the last half hour chasing her around the garden with a towel" he shouted. I tried to stifle a laugh but just couldn't do it and end up spitting everywhere laughing.
We all were talking and chilling until it was time for Blaise to go back to his odd ball of a wife.
How was that remember to please review I would love to know what you thought of it.
