Its what's on the inside that counts.
Disclaimer:
Well unfortunately, I do not own any part of this story that you recognise. However, If you don't it is completely and utterly mine.
Possibly.
She never forgot to set the wards. Not once. She was too afraid of what was outside. She read the horror stories everyday, about the witches and wizards that mysteriously went missing, only random body parts turning up. Her position in the war meant she was a target, so she took the necessary precautions. But never for a moment did she think that she would be killed by what was lurking inside her walls not outside them.
She had a routine. One she carried out religiously every single day. Open the door, set the wards, take her shoes and coat off, collect the mail, throw it onto the ever-growing pile. Go to the fridge, collect a bottle of water, sit on the sofa and recheck the wards. Before she went to bed she would check them once again. Secure in the knowledge that they were set and that there was no way anyone would ever possibly get through them she turned off the lights. This was her first mistake.
She settled down in her bed, allowing the blissful waves of sleep to overcome her. She didn't hear him switch on the bedside light. Noises in the night she could handle, she didn't bother with them anymore otherwise she would never get any sleep. Unexplained light however she couldn't. That's what caught her subconscious.
Her eyes shot open, her hand automatically reaching under her pillow for her wand. She sat up. Pointing her wand in the direction that she could her the breaths coming from. As her eyes focused and she saw who was standing there, she spoke the two forbidden words. Ones she swore she would never say, not after the last time. Keeping her wand arm steady, her mouth formed the words perfectly, filling them with as much hatred as her small body could mange.
"Draco Malfoy."
She was certain that, even in the dim glow of the nightlight, she could see him smirking at her.
A/N:
So can you guess who she is yet??? If you are familiar with my other stories you will know, if not then take a guess. I would like to hear who you think it is. What do you think about the beginning? Let me know feedback is always appreciated:)
