He woke up clutching his sheets and in cold sweat. The clock read one 'o' clock night. He got up up from his bed opening the window to let the soothing moolight enter into his emerald haunted eyes.
He had dreamt of her. Again.
Her silver locks disappearing into midnight hues.
Her beautiful smile.
Her angelic face.
The traitorous eyes.
and the monster she truly was
but behind that the girl who wanted to belong with her father even if he might be a monster.
He understood the need; atleast he had his Parents even if sometimes they didn't get along whereas she had no one.
He would have been there for her if she had given him a chance, done anything and everything for her.
Only her.

"Are you sure?" a dubious looking Scorpius Malfoy asked.
His best mate was out of his mind and had dark circles around his eyes.
But again this was Ablus Severus Potter we are talking about the rebel of the Potter Weasley Clan.
The Slytherin.
The Non Quidditch Player.
The Sensitive, Sweet, Caring and Unbiased Al.
Truly the Best One. Living up to his name.
Needless to say Scorp was proud of his best friend and worried. Extremely Worried.
Delphini Riddle had a huge effect on them.
Scorpio got the good part and Albus the bad part.
He fell in Love like Scorpio loved Rose.
Except it was much worse for Al. Thousand times worse.
So here they stood outside a muggle tatoo shop.
They had brought a painting of the Irish phoenix made by Albus himself and therefore the greenish black bird painted in bluish silver. To remind what it stood for.
Half an hour and most of the pain later they went to the diagon alley lousing about the place. Scorpio produced a gift, it was Albus's birthday after all. His family was at the burrow preparing for a surprise party and hand he had been entrusted with Al's responsibility by Rose and he couldn't have said no, not that he would let his friend sulk on his 17th birthday.
"Happy Birth Day Mate."
"Thanks. Whats in this?" he said shaking the package.
"Open and find out"
He opened to find a mirror. Albus looked questioningly at his friend.
"Well I thought you were always so obsessed with yourself so for your 17th birthday I got you a mirror"
"Really considerate of you" Albus joked scathingly what was meant to be sarcastic came out to be intimidating.
"Its not just any mirror, half of it shows what you desire, the other half what you need."
Albus gave him a look to indicate he didn't get his friend.
"like one side will show you your deepest wish that is your desire, the other will show you me like when you want a friend"
"Ok thanks."
He kept his gift inside the cloak and then crashed against a girl and held her as she was about to fall, they separated as soon as she regained her balance.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to."
"It's okay, I should have been more careful"
The girl had bright blue eyes and black hair which turned a little brownish when the sun shone upon them.
"No, its my fault and to apologize I would like to treat you witb some ice cream."
"That's not necessary at all." Scorpius said.
"I insist." she said looking at Albus.
"Ok" he said shrugging.
They were eating Ice cream when she introduced herself.
"I am Eleanour Roberts. I came to England recently so I am a little out of place
I will be joining Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. "
"Nice to meet you Eleanour. We're in the same school. I am the Headboy Scorpius Malfoy and this is my best friend Albus Potter, a prefect."
"I will be looking forward to meeting you at school."
"I think I should warn you we are not exactly the most liked students." said Scorp ever the gentleman.
Albus snorted before adding.
"We are the most popular Outcasts."
"Thats not an issue I am almost an outcast anyway I prefer the company of books more than of people for they tend to be engaged in ridiculous talks."
Albus let out a laugh.
"The best way to distract Scor is to take him to a place filled with books."
She let out a laugh which reminded him of the chimes that hung upon the window of Uncle Bills house and he loved how they rung when the sea breeze hit them.
It was after that when they met at school and she was sorted into slytherin they became the best of friends.
(time lapse)
It was a new day for Albus, the beginning of something special. He smiled looking at the sleeping figure of his wife.
Eleanour Potter.
No name had sounded this good.
"Hey,wake up" he whispered in her ear.
She cuddled him, burying her head into his chest.
"Wake up Love. Scorp and Rose are going to visit us remember the beach picnic we have planned."
She looked up a smile lighting that innocent face he had come to love.
She went to get dressed and recgeck the picnic items again. While getting dressed he thought how could his life had gotten so good. His last year at Hogwarts had been wonderful and memorable. It was after all a year where there had been no James. And She was there. His love. The only person other than his family and Scorp to keep him going.
He smelt pancakes as he entered the kitchen. He picked up the cup of coffee kept on the table and looked at the daily prophet.
The mug fell from his hands.
"Azkaban Jail Break: Delphini Riddle Escapes."
