CHAPTER 2
Draco walked up the cold stone steps that led into his dormitory and up to the common room. He held two bottles of fire whiskey in his hands. A smile came across his pale face when he saw his sister.
"Its family bonding time!" he announced as he handed her a bottle.
"Where have you been Draco?" She asked.
"You know around" he answered her simply. The two of them sat on the black leather sofa, drank their fire whiskey and talked about their week.
"Draco, I have heard things about something you did to potter, what exactly did you do?" Persephone asked smiling Draco.
"Oh, that!" Draco said with a laugh. "Well, I was walking down the charms corridor and I pantsed him"
Persephone laughed heartily at this.
"Nice Draco! Ten points!" Draco stood and mockingly took a bow. Just then Pansy walked in.
"Are you two drunk?!" she asked.
Persephone turned to see Pansy and answered with a sting:
"No we are bonding Parkinson!" Persephone rolled her eyes as she turned back around to Draco. It was no big secret that Persephone disliked Pansy. Pansy rolled her eyes.
"Parkinson, may I inquire as to why you have come to interrupt my bonding time with my brother?"
Pansy said nothing but looked toward Draco who was busy trying to catch a bit of fluff from the air. Pansy rolled her eyes again and walked out of the room.
"You know, you don't have to be rude to her, She is my best friend after all." Draco said to his sister quietly. Persephone looked at Draco slightly taken aback.
"Draco! I'm a Malfoy, I can and will do as I wish!" she retorted in a voice that was slightly louder then the situation called for.
"Hello! I'm a Malfoy! I know perfectly well what we are capable of!" Persephone knew she lost the disagreement so she hit her brother.
"Don't hit me!"
"I'll do what I want!" Draco knew his sister was giving up the disagreement and he won, therefore, things were to go back to normal.
Draco laughed at his sister.
" What is going on in here?" asked a voice from behind them.
"Hey Blaise!" Draco said happily. Blaise went and sat down on the edge of the sofa that Persephone and Draco were seated on.
"Again I ask you what is going on here?"
Draco put down his empty bottle and looked to Blaise.
"Family bonding time." He answered as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Family bonding?" Blaise repeated.
"Yes" Draco said simply.
Blaise shook his head.
"Let me get this straight. You call getting drunk with your sister family bonding?"
"I beg your pardon, but Malfoy's do not get drunk." Persephone dignantly replied. Blaise stood silently for a few seconds before saying:
"I bond with my sister as well but not by getting drunk!"
"Yes, Blaise, but unlike you, we are not into incest." Persephone said. Blaise began to sputter incoherently at this, while Draco and Persephone just laughed.
"Well, you, know come to think about it…." Draco said as he leapt on his sister.
" Ah! Draco! Dear lord get off me!" Draco laughed as he got up and sat back on his side of the sofa. Blaise sat in shock. Draco laughed at the look of udder horror on Blaise's face.
"Incest is best take your sister for a test!"
"Malfoy, that's nasty!" Blaise answered before he got up and left down to his dorm. Persephone waited until she heard the door shut before saying:
"Mum sent a letter today."
"How is he doing?"
"Not good, the verdict came today"
"And"
"Draco, he's getting the kiss."
Draco let out a sigh of frustration.
Persephone began to cry. Draco hugged his sister.
"I'm working on a plan to spring him from Azkaban." Draco said as he kissed Persephone's forehead.
"Draco, it's impossible!"
"Nothing is impossible Persephone."
"Draco, who ever said nothing was impossible obviously never tried to slam a revolving door." Draco smiled at his sister.
"I guess your right, but I can try"
"Draco…."
"Hey let's talk about something else shall we?" Draco offered with a smile.
"All right"
Draco grabbed Persephone's fire whiskey and took a drink. He set the bottle down on the table and asked his sister what happened in her last class. Persephone proceeded to tell Draco about the latest Ron / Hermione gossip.
"Eww! The weasel and the mudblood!"
"I know! Draco, I feel bad for you. You have classes with them."
Draco cringed.
"Persephone, please please please, don't remind me. Especially so close to my bed time."
"Sorry"
"No it's fine, let's change the subject. I know! Guess whom I saw at quidditch practice today? Flint and he tells me he thinks your pretty."
"Draco! How many times do I have to tell you- NO!"
"But" Draco protested. Persephone gave him a look that said, If- you- say- one- more- word- about- it- I- flipping'- swear- it- will- be- the- last- word- you- udder. Draco took the unsubtle hint, finished off his sisters fire whiskey and announced that he was going to turn in. Persephone followed suite.
Draco woke up the next morning around noon. When he walked down to the common room, he saw Persephone yelling at Pansy.
"YOU CAN'T CONTROL HIM!"
" I DON'T' TRY TO"
"OH COME ON! PARKINSON, YOU KNOW YOU TRY TO!"
"I DO NOT!"
Persephone rolled her eyes.
"LISTEN, MY BROTHER HAS TOLD ME HOW YOU CONSTANTLY PAW AT HIM LIKE SOME KIND OF TWO KNUT WHORE!"
Pansy scoffed indignantly at this.
"Oh see Parkinson, when you make noises like that, you only further enforce the fact that you look like a pig."
Pansy stood stunned and did not know what to say. Persephone simply smiled, turned on her heel and walked out of the common room to the corridor outside.
Pansy immediately turned to Draco and asked:
"Can you believe her?!" Draco said nothing but simply gave Pansy his trademark smirk and walked out to the Quidditch field for practice.
The quidditch field was damp from the previous day's rain. The Slytherin quidditch team was waiting for their seeker.
"Where have you been?" Flint asked in a loud voice, as Draco came walking up to him broom in hand.
"Sorry Flint, Persephone was yelling at Pansy. It was quite entertaining" Draco said with a small chuckle. At the mention of Persephone, Flint became much more attentive and alert.
"What did Pansy do to her?" Flint asked overly concerned.
"Pansy didn't do anything to her, she was pawing at me and well, you know how Persephone dislikes her. She was telling her to back off that's all." Draco answered with a shrug, and the air that suggested that he was always the victim of women pawing at him and that it was just a curse he had to live with.
Flint stood there waiting for Draco continue to talk about his sister, when he said nothing, Flint reluctantly called the team to begin to practice. Flint and the other two chasers threw the quaffel at the keeper mercilessly. While Crabbe and Goyle tried unsuccessfully to unseat someone with a bludger. Draco was catching and releasing the snitch as easily as if he was spreading butter on bread. Flint landed and motioned for his team to follow suite. When they landed, Flint announced that practice was over due to the coming rain. Flint gave a quick run down of how he thought practice went. He told Crabbe and Goyle that he thought they needed a lot more practice and that they were also getting very sloppy. He praised the rest of the team with a job well done.
Draco went to the locker rooms and took his shower. When he finished with his shower, he stepped out and pulled a towel from the rack and wrapped it around his waste. He found that he was the only one in the locker rooms. He resisted the urge to do a jig and instead, he dried himself off , got dressed and went to the castle for lunch.
When Draco entered the great hall, he saw Flint sitting unnecessarily close to Persephone, who had the look of murder in her eyes. Draco watched for a few moments and decided that in order to save himself from the wrath of his sister later that day, he should sit on her other side. Draco sat down and Persephone gave him a smile.
"So how was practice Draco?"
"Good, what did you do with your afternoon?"
"You know, the usual. I just spent the last three hours doing homework."
Draco nodded.
"Oh!" he said as he pulled out a crumpled piece of parchment from his robes. He handed her the parchment as he said. :
"Its from father, he sent it today, I was going to give it to you this morning, but of course you were having that row with Pansy."
Persephone scoffed.
"Draco, you know I don't like her."
"You know, you have never told why." Persephone rolled her eyes and looked around the great hall. Persephone grabbed Draco by the arm and drug him out of the great hall. When they reached the safety of a empty corridor three floors away, Persephone explained.
"Okay Draco, you want to know why I don't like her?"
Draco looked at his sister.
"She's a gold digger. I heard her talking to Millicent in your third year. She had plans to marry you and to get your inheritance. "
"Really?"
"Yes Draco, she's at the lake every night with some random guy. I just I don't want to see you get hurt. I don't want her around you! She's just going to use you! Which is what she's doing."
Draco looked at his sister with the intensity that suggested she had a terminal illness and it was up to him to tell her.
He looked to his feet for several moments.
"You sure?"
" Yes, I would never lie to you about something like this."
"Alright."
Draco stood silent. Persephone hugged him.
"I'm sorry. I wish I didn't have to be the one to tell you."
Draco smiled weakly at her and turned around and headed down the stairs. Persephone headed to her dorm.
The next morning, Persephone walked down to the lake for care of magical creatures. Hagrid was beginning a new section this one on kelpie. Persephone and the rest of the Slytherins stood in the back of the class while the Gryffindors all ran to the front of the class.
Flint walked up beside Persephone.
"So do you think we will ever be able to learn about non- man eating animals?" he asked her.
" I doubt it! Least we forget what he did to Draco!" Persephone had hated Hagrid since a hippogriff had almost killed Draco in his third year.
"Okay, now git wid yer partner fur class." Hagrid instructed. Flint immediately grabbed on to Persephone's arm and refused to let go of it.
"Oh look! Everyone has a partner, guess we have to work together."
"Joy" Persephone, said in a voice that was dripping with sarcasm.
Flint drug her to the front of class and did not seem to notice the 'Someone- please- shoot- me- now' look that was plastered on her face. The whole time Hagrid was giving instructions, Persephone could not stop thinking along the line of. Eww I need a shower and I need one now! Why does he insist on standing this close to me? She answered her own question with a mental Well I am a Malfoy. I guess I just have the Malfoy charm. Lord knows Draco has it.
When Persephone and Flint's turn came to ward off the kelpie. Persephone stepped into the Malfoy roll. "Set up here, git yer self ready he can cum fast."
Persephone looked at Hagrid as if he was something on the bottom of her shoe.
"No."
" But it's the lesson. Miss Malfoy you hafe to."
"Excuse me! I'm a Malfoy I can do what ever I want. My father could own this place you know he is a governor!" Hagrid was use to this speech. He got it at least twice a week. From Draco, in his mind pure bloods were all the same, spoiled stuck up brats.
When class was finally out Persephone walked with Flint trailing behind her like a lost puppy to the Slytherin common room. When they entered, Flint told Persephone for the seven-hundredth time that he thought that she was pretty. Persephone rolled her eyes and walked down to her dorm room. Flint walked out of the common room where he ran into Draco.
"Your sister is really bitchy today you know. Is it her time of the month?" Flint asked.
"What!" Draco asked in a scandalized tone. "I don't know! I don't ask my sister that! There are somethings that need to stay unspoken! And that my friend is one of them." Draco's voice rang off the walls. A smile came across Flint's face.
"She wants me!"
"What?"
"Your sister she wants me." Flint said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Draco stood and looked at Flint as if he had lost his marbles.
"Are you a bloody moron? My sister hates you! She thinks your gay and that you're in a relationship with Wood!"
"That's preposterous. She does not."
"You know Flint, denial isn't just a river in Egypt."
Flint began to laugh.
"Man for a few seconds, you had me going there." Flint clapped Draco on the shoulder turned and left still laughing before Draco could say anything else to him.
Draco turned and walked into the common room and left to go find his sister in her room. Persephone turned when she heard the door open.
" Hey Draco." She said when she saw him.
"Hey" he said as he sprawled out on the marble floor. He looked up questioningly at his sister.
"So what happened with flint today?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well," Draco said as he sat cross-legged. "He says you were bitchier then normal"
Persephone looked at Draco for a few seconds and proceeded to tell him about class and what transpired after. Draco laughed at the sound of horror that was in his sister's voice. Draco told her about what had happened in the hall.
"So he thinks your lying?"
"I guess so"
"Why is he so bloody stupid?"
"I'm not sure, I guess he just thinks your playing hard to get."
Persephone began to laugh.
"Draco I think we need to have family bonding time again."
"I catch your drift." Draco said as he got up and ran out the door to his dorm room. He returned a few minutes later with fire whiskey.
"Catch!" he said as he threw a bottle to his sister.
Draco sat down next to his sister.
"You know Draco, I think I should flaunt my cleavage more when I'm around him, you know have a bit of fun."
"Speaking of bits, I bet his would be hard if you did that."
Persephone began to laugh at this.
"I have to tell you something." Draco said to her with such intensity that it caused Persephone to lean forward with interest.
"I'm tipsy"
Persephone began to laugh at this. Draco stood up and began to rap.
"Eminem!" Persephone yelled happily!
"Yes it is."
Draco sat down after his 'rap'.
"I think you should let him rap Draco." Persephone said.
"Your probably right."
"You do have a prefects meeting Draco, you should probably go." With that they parted ways. Draco went to his meeting tipsy as usual.
