A girl called Marian Cravney go back 12 years by mistake while she was going to the entrance of the school. It was her first year there (she arrives on exchange, she is a foreigner) and she doesn't know nobody at London. She arrives at Malfoy's manor where Lucius and Narcissa receive her, thinking that she's the new Draco Malfoy's nanny. She decides to stay there taking care of him and making little Draco change from a bad boy to a sweet boy (who, actually, ask her to marry him). At the weekends (her free days) she find another job, taking care of a muggle, called Dudley Dursley. Of course Harry is in the house too, as well as she discovers, and they become friends.
After a year, while Marian, knowing that Draco is one of her future mates at Hogwarts, learns a lot of things about him and his family, she gets a really free-job weekend, because Dudley is ill and his parents are going to stay at house with him.
With nothing more to do (she doesn't have a family or somebody to spend the day with) she goes for a walk, arriving at Hogwarts... and being transported to the present. A bit confused she goes in, looking for the Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, who was waiting for her and ask her to try the Sorting Hat, which decides to put her at Gryffindor.
After that she goes to the Gryffindor tower where she meets Hermione Granger. The following day, the two girls go to the Great Hall to eat something, where Hermione introduces Marian to Harry and Ron. Harry, who remembers his nanny, realize that she has the same appearance than 12 years before. Marian tells him the truth and he is a bit shocked but very pleased to see her again. By the way, Draco Malfoy has discovered that something strange is happening at the Gryffindor's table and goes to see what is it. Then he sees Marian and cannot believe his eyes. At the end of the day he finally decides to talk to her, kidnapps the girl and acuse Marian of being a liar (?) and a betrayal. She gets angry and rans away (hitting him for being such a bad boy, not how I tech you) and Malfoy makes a decision.
CHAPTER ONE: Meeting the Malfoys.
Don't. Don't do it because I cannot answer you. I'm being serious! I cannot answer something I don't know, and I don't know (in case you haven't realizedyet) how I have disappeared like that. You see, I- it means Marian Cravney- was standing there, in front of the big door, and I was going to push it, ready to get in, when I realized I was not in front of the big door anymore but at the other side of a big shield, which is around a huge and elegant house.
While I decide what to do, a strange sound, like a woman crying, make me look at the shadow who seems, desperate, to run away from the manor and bumps directly into me.
'Sorry' the shadow (a girl) apologises, sobbing and shivering.
'Are you all right?' I ask although I already know the answer.
'They... they have given me the sack'-she says and is very difficult to me to understand what she says not only because she is still crying but because I'm not very good at English 'only because I complained about... about that evil...'
'Who have given you the sack?' I try to leave my own feelings of disbelief and surprise and try to concentrate on what she's saying.
'The Malfoys' she answers back.
'Malfoy?' wait, I have listened this name before. I remember to have read something refered to the Malfoys in that foreign diary called the Prophet but I cannot remember what it said...
'It's not... that boy... his not a human... really... he is really really bad'
'Who?' Yes, I see, I have to elaborate a bit more my sentences, as my ancient teacher always used to say.
'Draco Malfoy' she says 'I've complained to the Mrs about him because he had tried to burn my hair with his father wand, but then that ugly women- Mrs Pherson- has said that I was lying and they've given me the sack! And the boy was laughing!' I don't understand half of the story but I think I catch the essential.
'So, that Mrs Pherson had tried to burn you hair?' The girl looks at me, scowling, and then looks up the manor.
'Oh. I have to go!' she says running again and leaving me there, alone.
'Excuse me' or not so alone. I turn round and my eyes meet an old man who is looking at me 'Get in, please. The master is waiting for you'.
'Me?' I ask, pointing at myself. The man nodds and walks towards the door of the house. I follow him, still not knowing what has happened to me. The old man makes me enter in the house and then leads me to a big hall, decorated with a lot of pictures and furnitures that seem to have cost a lot of galleons. In there a men- with blond hair, pale skin and grey eyes- and a women- also blond, very pretty- are sitting in a sofa.
'Master' Says the old man (the butler, I suppose) 'She's the new girl' adds and leaves when Mr Malfoy (I recognise him because of the photo I saw in the Profet but... in person he looks much younger) stands up and tells him to bring us some tea.
'So' Mr Malfoy turns to me 'what qualifications have you got?'
'Excuse me?' I ask as much politely as I can.
'Lucius, we shall offer the girl to sit down first, shall not we?' The woman (Mrs Malfoy?) takes part in the conversation.
He agrees and I sit down, a bit nervous, and then the butler arrive with the tea.
'Thanks' I say to the man, who disappears again after some minutes.
'Well, Miss...what's your name?'
'Marian, sir, Marian...' I doubt '...Green'. I prefer not to say my real name, just in case they know somebody of my family.
'Right. My name's Lucius Malfoy and she is my wife, Narcissa'.
'Nice to meet you' I say and she looks pleased.
'You are not from England, are you?' Ask Mrs Malfoy.
'No. I'm from Spain but my father was born in London, that's why I have an English surname'.
'I see' says, distracted, Mr Malfoy drinking a bit of his cup of tea.
'She can teach Draco a bit of Spanish' says happily Narcissa Malfoy.
'If she gets the job' replies him not looking at me. And then '¿are you not too much young? How old are you?'
'I'm seventeen' I answer with the true. 'But I'm very responsible' I add quickly.
'You have experience looking after children?' He continues with the interview. That's it! I get it now. So, that girl that I found outside was little Malfoy's nanny and his parents are looking for a new one. Fine, after all, it's a bit late, I dunno where I am and I need a place to sleep so I'm gonna try to get the job.
'Yes I have' I answer his question 'I have been doing it since I was ten' And that's true too, I have always been the one who take care of my younger cousins.
'I think she can do it, Lucius' the women looks at his husband.
'I'm not sure' he says and I, more nervous because I don't want to spend the night out, tell him something like 'I can try some days and if you don't like how I work I promise I will not complain if you give me the sack'. Then, the first page of a newspaper (on the table) catch my eyes. It cannot be true. Is my imagination or in there it puts that today is 1 of Setember of 1991? I look around and, anxious, take a look at the calendar which is on a wall next to the fire. No! 1991 again! Have I travelled 12 years to the past? The voice of Mr Malfoy breaks the silence.
'All right. You can stay a week' he says and Narcissa Malfoy smiles. Then he grumbles 'She cannot be worse than the four of the past month'. The four of the past month? How many nannies have they got?
'Fine. I would tell Paul to help you with the luggage' says the woman, going to her feet and leaving the room to find that Paul.
'This robes you're wearing... are not like the Hogwarts uniform?' Ask Mr Malfoy, with his grey eyes half-closed. ¡Ups! Of course it's the uniform. I was going to get into the castle when I was, without an explanation, transported here. What do you want? I didn't have time to get changed.
'No... They are my black ones, very similar to Hogwart's but not the...' Fortunately, Mrs Malfoy arrives with a young boy (Paul, I suppose) transporting my luggage with the Locomotor trunk spell.
I'm lucky! It has appeared with me!
'I think it's time to introduce you to my son, Miss Green' says Narcissa, with a smile on her face. ¿Her son? ¿The evil that girl told me about? ¿Why is Mrs Malfoy so happy?
HELLO! I expect you like it, it's my first fanfic but I've tryed to do my best! Please, review and forgive me if I have too much mistakes- I, as Marian, I'm not very good at English :P-
