7:30 pm. December 31, 1999
Hayley Peters was an adverage 19-year-old girl. She had a faboulus boyfriend, great friends, the best job in the world, and a cute little apartment. Her life was perfect.
At this paticular moment she was sitting in front of her mirror doing her make-up. Tonight was the office New Years party so she wanted to look extra special. You only get to go to a New Millenium party once, right?
She had changed into a black knee length dress with black shoes. Her aurbun hair was pulled into a simple loose bun at the base of her neck. The make up was very light. She already had a boyfriend, she didnt need to look good for anyone else.
Fastening a small silver tennis bracelet to her wrist she checked the time. It was 7:45 pm. If she wanted to get to the party on time she needed to leave now. She hated apperating so she simply drove.
Fifteen minuets later she pulled her small silver car in to a free parking space.
8:00 pm.
"Hayley!" Hermionie Granger ran at her friend and embraced her.
"Hermionie, wow you look great!" Haley was beaming. "How's Ron?" The girls made their way to the refreshment table where they met up with Ron and Hayleys boyfriend, Harry.
"Hey, Beautiful." Harry smiled and kissed her forehead.
"Hey back, Handsome." Haley linked her hand with his and the group went off to find a table.
8:30 pm.
Hayley was enjoying the conversation between Harry and Ron when she felt shivers run up her back. She looked around but couldent figure out where the chill was coming from. Setting her glass down she rose and left the table in search of the cold.
She weaved between dancing couples and made her way to the other side of the room. A window was open and the icy wintery wind was blowing in. She struggled with it but it just wouldent seem to budge.
"Uggg!! Stupid window, shut already!" she said under her breath and continued to strain aginst it.
"Here, let me help." a male voice said and soon the window was shut.
"Oh, wow. Thanks, um..." She looked up into the eyes of her helper.
"Malfoy, Draco Malfoy." He said with a smug air and extended his hand.
Slowly she gently shook his hand. Her eyes on his the whole time.
He realeased her had and took a step forward. "And your name is?"
"Uh.. Haley, Haley Peters."
"Nice to meet you, Haley Peters." he winked and swept away.
She stayed rooted to the spot.
"There you are! Why did you leave?" a warm hand placed its self on her shoulder.
Turning, she looked into the sweet green eyes of Harry.
"Oh, I just wanted to close the window. I was cold."
"Ok... Are you done?" He looked at the window.
"Yeah, I was just talking to a guy. He helped me close the window."
"Who?" Is was a simple pleasent question. He took her hand and was leading her back to the table.
"Um, he said his name was Malfoy, Draco Malfoy."
Harry stopped in his tracks and his face was stoney. "Who?" this time the question wasnt so pleasent.
"D-Draco?" She didnt understand.
She didnt go to Hogwarts. The went to a school in Ireland instead. She met Harry when she applied for the secretary position to the Minister of Magic two years ago. He was training to be an auror.
"You couldent have. He cant be here. They dont let Death Eaters just walk into an office party." He was angry now.
"But... isnt Voldermort dead? Didnt you kill him a few years back?"
"Its not that simple, Hayley." he spat and continued his walk to the table. Hayley following in his wake.
At the table Harry let go of her hand and took his seat, then started into a very urgent and hushed conversation about Death Eaters and Ferrets and so on.
9:00 pm.
The trio was still in their conversation mode and Hayley just looked on, sipping her soda every now and then.
"Hayley, are you enjoying your self?" The Minister of Magic stood before her.
"Oh yes Mininster." she smiled.
"Come, there is someone I want you to meet."
"Sure." she said happily and rose to follow the Minister. Not bothering to tell her friends. She wasnt sure they would even notice she was gone.
"My dear, Ive gown old and Ill need someone to follow in my place. I believe Ive found the perfect person. He is very smooth and smart and quite handsome." He winked at her.
"Now, my dear. May I present to you, the soon-to-be new Minister Of Magic."
A tall man turned around, his white blond hair shone in the moonlight. His thin features stood out aginst the strong features of the two men on either side of him. His grey-blue eyes were clear and looking straight at her.
"Draco?" She asked quietly.
"Mister Draco Malfoy." The Minister said happily.
"Hayley, nice to see you again." He steped forward and took her hand, bowing over it he kissed it gently.
"You, you two already know each other?" The Minister asked perplexed.
"Yes, Minister. She was having difficulties closing the window and I helped her." He said smugly.
"Ah, so chiveraly isnt dead after all." The Minister smiled.
A song came on over the loud speaker and more people rose to the dance floor.
"Hayley, would you care to join me in a dance or two?" Draco asked.
She looked back to her table and saw that Ginny Weasly had joined the group and had submerged herself into the conversation as well.
Shrugging, she thought she might as well. She nodded her head and Draco swept her into his arms and they gracefully moved about the floor.
Hayley was having so much fun that when that song ended she asked for another dance, then another and another. Soon she had lost count.
10:30 pm.
Hayley returned to the table. They were still in conversation and didnt notice her arrival. A pop song from the United States floated throught the speakers by some group called Backstreet Boys. It was titled Larger Than Life. Hayley wanted to dance again. leaning across the table she blocked Harry from the other two.
"Dance with me?" she smiled.
Harry looked taken aback then slowly nodded his head and couple went to the dance floor.
"Hayley, are you sure he said his name was Draco Malfoy?"
"Harry, I dont wanna talk about him. Yes thats his name, he is tall and blond too. But please, just let it go. Youve been talking about it for the last hour."
A new song came on. It was Bye Bye Bye from NSYNC. (me- ha!! yall want it all in real time with the story, so yall get music that was out at that time.)
"Sorry, Hay. I just got wrapped up. Look, there is something important I need to ask you." He lead her out to the terrace.
"What is it?"
She watched as he reached into his coat pocket and began to kneel onto the ground. From his pocket he produced a small blue box. Opening the box he looked into her eyes.
"Hayley Ann Peters. Will you marry me?" He held up the box and inside was a thin silver band with a round solitare diamond in the center.
Her eyes filled with tears and she jumped on Harry and hugged him. "Yes, Harry, Yes I will marry you!"
The snow began to fall gently as he put the ring on her left ring finger.
11:00 pm.
The couple reentered the ball room and joined Hermionie and Ron at the table.
Harry made the announcement and Hayley showed everyone the ring.
As Harry talked to the others about how happy he was Hayley fingered the ring and wondered how her life will be in a few years. If she would be happy or if she would continue to be the fourth wheel? She dreamed about how it would be.
She saw Harry, older, sitting at a table in a small blue and yellow kitchen, reading the Daily Profet. She saw a small child in a high chair was eating cerial. The child had her aubrun hair and his eyes. She saw herself, older, her hair longer and pulled into a low pony tail with a ribbon, her belly was round and she was expecting another child. The family was happy.
11:30 pm.
"Come on, lets go dance!" Hermionie grabbed Rons hand and Hayley had Harrys and the two girls pulled the boys onto the dance floor.
They danced and spinned and whirled untill the Minister stood at his podium.
"Attention everyone!! It is a minuet until the New Year!" Everyone cheered.
The crowed began to count backwards from 60. The excitement building.
Hayley held her breath and made a wish as the crowd got to 10. 'I wish I new what my life would be like in five years.'
"3-2-1 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!" The crowd went crazy. There were couples kissing and people cheering and fireworks going off. Hayley couldent be happier.
12:30 am January 1, 2000.
As the party died down people began apperating home and Hayley walked out to her car.
1:00 am.
After Hayley went home she changed and climbed into her full sized bed. Snuggling under the blankets she smiled. She drifted off to sleep dreaming about her and Harry in the future and their children laughing and growing.
10:00 am January 1 2005.
Hayley felt the sun on her face and snuggled into her bed deeper. She cuddled up to her warm pillow and sighed.
"Morning." Her pillow said with a deep voice.
"What the?" she opened her eyes and saw that her pillow had a belly button. "Huh?" she lifted her head and saw that she was not alone in her bed and that her pillow was actually a very good looking man. And it wasnt Harry.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed and fell out of the bed and looked around.
"Oh my god!" She wasnt in her room. She raised her hand to her mouth and saw bright red nails. She was confused, last night her nails were nude.
The figure on the bed moved and Hayley ran out the nearest door, it was a bathroom. She stood and looked into the mirror to tell her self this was a dream. What she saw scared her more. Her hair, her beautiful long hair was cut to shoulder lenght and was brown with blond highlites. She couldent recognise her self. The only thing that seemed familer were her eyes. They were still blue. She looked at her left hand and saw that her engagement ring was missing and in its place were two rings, a solid gold band and a silver band with a tear drop cut diamond.
"This isn't real." She breathed and sunk to the floor.
There yall go!! Tell me what yall think!!
