Chapter 2:
Normal Pov
Upon arrival, it would appear that Malfoy Manor was completely empty. The rooms were quiet, and no noise at all was uttered through the house when Juliunna returned home. She was completely glad though, for she enjoyed her solitude and silence. Juliunna walked through the intricate hallway, widely decorated with pictures of her and her family. They waved at her and smiled brightly as she passed them.
Juliunna walked into the kitchen, to find her mother enjoying butterscotch pudding. "Hey mom." She said, grabbing a juice box from the fridge. It was amazingly chilly.
"Hi honey, how was dinner with the muggles?" Her mother asked, scrunching up her nose with disgust at the word 'muggle'.
"It was nice. They freaked when they found out I was a witch though. You should have seen their faces-!"
"Ooh, where they scared?"
"You bet! Dudley, the boy, jumped out of his seat and fell on the floor! And his dad, his face was so purple! He got up too, but he looked like he was having a heart attack! And Dudley's mom, she screamed and fell out of her seat. And for some reason, Dudley kept clutching his bottom as if I was going to hex it off!" Juliunna and Narcissa laughed.
"Oh, sweetheart, this came for you. I read it." Narcissa said, passing Juliunna a letter. It was folded in a square, so she couldn't see what she was reading yet.
"Mom. Why did you read my letter?" She asked, unfolding the square and flattening the letter out. It was from one of Draco's friends. Blaise Zabini.
"Because I am a mother, and I have the right to read letters from your little friends." Narcissa said, and took the letter back before Jules could read it. At that moment, Lucius walked in.
"Ah, your back. Hi." He waved, but his eyes narrowed at the letter. "What's that?" He asked.
"It's a letter from Juliunna's boyfriend!" Narcissa squealed, waving the letter in front of Juliunna's face.
"Boyfriend!" Lucius said, turning to Juliunna. "You're too young for a boyfriend!"
"He's not my boyfriend!" Juliunna said, desperately wanting to go back to her room.
"Oh the grandchildren will be adorable-!"
Lucius interrupted Narcissa. "Grandchildren? Who said anything about grandchildren?!"
"Oh we just have to set you up on a date!" Narcissa said, grabbing another piece of paper.
"What?!" Juliunna screamed.
"I swear to god if you even think about having children I'm locking you in the dungeon." Lucius glared.
"What are you talking about?!" Juliunna said, screaming at her mother.
"Give me the letter; I want to see what it says." Lucius said, walking over to them. Narcissa quickly handed the letter to Juliunna though.
"Let her read it, it's her letter." Narcissa snapped, and they both watch Juliunna read the letter, watching her reaction. "Well, what does it say?" Lucius glared. Juliunna rolled her eyes, and put down the letter.
"Blaise invited me and Draco to spend the night at his manor tonight. And then we could meet you guys at the Quidditch World Cup in two days." Juliunna said. But Narcissa snapped her fingers.
"No, no, no. He specifically invited you. And at the bottom of the letter it says that your brother may come if he wishes. It means that he's hoping that Draco doesn't come, but you do."
"That's bull." Lucius said. Juliunna looked up. "How do you even know that?" Lucius said, turning to Narcissa. She smiled. "It's original girl code breaking." She shrugged.
"Well in that case," Lucius said, turning to Juliunna. "You're not going."
"What?!" Juliunna snapped. "But Blaise's manor is awesome! I want to go!"
"I'm not sending you to a hormonal teenage boy's house alone! But if you really want to go, take Draco with you."
"What?!" Juliunna cried. "But Draco's just going to be a third wheel!" Juliunna said. And Draco walked into the kitchen, hearing Juliunna's voice.
"What are you guys talking about? And what do you mean by third wheel?!" Draco said, glaring at Juliunna.
"I mean that Daddy's trying to make me take you to Blaise's manor. We got an invitation. But I want to go alone." Juliunna said, and Draco scoffed.
"What, so you can go suck face with Blaise? I don't think so! I'm going." Draco said, ignoring Lucius when he blanched.
"Who said anything about sucking face you major dip wad!" Juliunna snapped.
"I did. And who are you calling dip wad, mudblood lover." Draco snapped.
"Stop fighting." Lucius yelled at them, and Juliunna glared.
"I'm going to my room." She snapped, and without another word, she left her family standing in the room as she ran up the stairs and out of sight. But to Juliunna's anger, Draco followed her.
"Wait!" He said, almost tripping over a stair on the banner case. But Juliunna walked into her room and left the door open. He walked in and then quietly shut the door.
"You should have gone straight to me; you know mom and dad always make a great fuss about you and the male specimen." Draco smirked, and Juliunna was suddenly grinning.
"What are you talking about Dray? Are you offering to help me?" She grinned teasingly.
"Why help you with what dear sister? I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about." He teased, looking around at her room. He frowned heavily when he noticed the large bookcase.
"Hey. Wasn't it me who asked for books and a bookcase to go with it?" Draco asked her, staring at the Black insignia on the side of it.
"I think so. But I asked for one too." Juliunna said, sitting on her wide four poster board bed.
"Why didn't I get one?" Draco asked.
"Because while I'm Daddy's Little Princess, your Daddy's biggest disappointment." Juliunna smirked, making Draco snort.
"If you say so." He said, and rolled up his sleeves.
"So…" Juliunna said, and when Draco looked over at her, she had the biggest puppy dog eyes he had ever seen.
"You're so going to stay here while I go to Blaise's house, right?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. Her straight black hair falling to the side.
"Like I said downstairs sister, I'm not going to stay here while you and Zabini are sucking face. That's disgusting."
"And like I said downstairs, brother, who said anything about sucking face? Don't just jump to the conclusion that since Blaise invited me over, that we're going to go out." Juliunna snapped. She picked a book up that was sitting on her bed and leafed through it.
"So… sister," Draco drawled out, and sat down onto her bed. He lay down and got comfortable. "Do you like Blaise?" He asked.
"Why would you ever, in a million years, think that I would tell you?" She asked.
"Excuse me? You tell me everything!" He said in mock humor. He threw his arms behind his head and crossed his ankles.
"Ugh." Juliunna groaned. "Well, I don't know, maybe?" She said, turning the pages faster, trying not to look at her brothers mocking face.
"I'm so telling him-!"
"Oh come on! I told you that in confidence!" Juliunna groaned. Draco chuckled at her embarrassment.
"Okay, okay, I might not tell him-!"
"Draco!"
"Alright, I won't tell him." Draco said with another laugh. Teasing her was just so much fun.
"I have to tell you something." Draco said. "Blaise likes you. A lot." Draco laughed. Juliunna glared at him.
"No, no seriously, he does. He's been asking me about you all year-!"
"Why didn't he just talk to me then?!" Juliunna snapped, burying her face in a throw pillow.
"Because he's shy. But not so much anymore." Draco said, smiling into his pillow. Juliunna sighed, lifting her face.
"Could you give me a quill and a piece of paper? I need to send a letter." Juliunna sighed dreamily.
"Sure." Draco said, laughing all the way to her desk. He hurriedly ran back to her side, and looked over her shoulder at the letter.
Dear Hermione,
"What?!" Draco said. "I thought you were writing to Blaise." He snorted.
"I'll write to him next. And stop breathing down my neck!" She snapped. But then, just as Juliunna was about to write the first word, she stopped.
"Wait? Why am I writing to Hermione about relationship advice?! She hasn't even got one!" Juliunna snapped, and Draco burst out laughing.
"True. True. So, I want to ask you a favor." Draco said.
"What do you want?" Juliunna asked expectantly.
"Alright, I'll stay home secretly, allowing you to go to Blaise's manor, if… I can owl Potter about your new boyfriend." Draco smirked devilishly, and Juliunna shrugged.
"That's all? Sure. Knock yourself out." Juliunna said, and Draco grabbed the paper and quill from her. She leaned over his shoulder so that she could read Draco's decorative handwriting.
Potter,
This is Juliunna. I just want you to know that I have no feelings for you whatsoever, and that I have no wishes to be friends with someone who's last name is comparable to a toilet.
Draco had just enough time to end the sentence before the quill was ripped out of his hand. Jules glared at him, and handed him a fresh piece of paper. "Don't forge my name Draco. And don't right something like that!" She fumed, handing him the quill again. And with a small huff, he started righting again.
Dearest Harry,
"Why would I write Dearest? Seriously Draco stop embarrassing me!" She grumbled. Draco grinned, his quill scratching thinly across the paper.
You are never going to believe what just happened!
I've got a boyfriend. I'm going out with a prestigious pureblood! Now that I think about it, who are you going out with? Oh wait, that's right.
You have no girlfriend.
"Draco!" Juliunna yelled, smacking him upside his blonde head. He rubbed the spot where she had hit him painfully.
"Ouch!" Draco yelled back, reaching over to hit her. But she dodged it.
"Where am I sending this thing anyway?" Draco muttered.
"Harry's going to the Weasley's tomorrow, so just send it there." Juliunna waved him off. Draco jumped up and was at the door in a second.
"Okay sister, have fun at your date. I'll just go write up a letter and send it. Goodbye."
"Wait! Don't embarrass me Draco! Because I will find out if you write insults or something in that letter!"
She huffed heavily when Draco slammed the door shut.
"Sometimes I hate that boy." She growled.
…
Juliunna grabbed a handful of floo powder, but her father stopped her before she could go.
"Where's Draco?" He asked. His hand was gripping her upper arm and she swayed a little.
"Already there." She lied fluently. "I stayed behind to grab a few books." Juliunna said, gesturing to the knapsack on her back.
"Well… I guess it's alright…" He said, letting go. "Okay." She said.
"Zabini Manor!" She yelled, throwing the floo powder into the fireplace. The flames immediately turned green.
"Just to let you know, I'm sending a letter to Cecelia." Lucius said. "And there will be twenty four hour surveillance on you. You sleep in your own room, alone-!"
"I'm not stupid." Juliunna said, and in the next second, she was disappearing into a spiral of green flames.
She fell into Blaise's living room. His mom was the only one in there.
"Oh, baby Juliunna Malfoy!" She cooed. "I haven't seen you for a month!" She said, getting up from the couch.
Cecilia Zabini was a very tall woman. She was at least six feet. Her clothes were made out of the finest silk. She was very beautiful and curvaceous, but she was single. Cecilia was very widely known throughout the Ministry because… Well the story is that Cecilia had many husbands, each dying suspiciously and leaving her large amounts of gold. (A/N: Oh come on people! This is just common ID channel stuff! It's obvious that she's either killing them for their money, or… Well it's pretty obvious that she killed them.)Juliunna happened to know that Cecilia had a special batch of poison that goes unnoticed in magical autopsies. Her first husband had been an experimental brewer.
"Hi Aunt Cece." Juliunna said, heaving her bag over her shoulder. "Why don't you visit anymore sweetheart, you know I'm all alone in this Manor when Blaise is at Hogwarts." She said, running a french tip over an expensive Hogwarts, a History. The cover seemed to be made of gold.
"But Aunt Cece, I go to Hogwarts too." Juliunna laughed, taking a seat on the couch. Cecilia looked scandalized.
"Since when?" She gasped.
"Stop playing. Mommy told you ages ago, I was with her when she wrote the letter." Juliunna said, laughing.
"I still can't believe that you skipped two whole years! How did you do it?" Cecilia asked, tracing the cover of her book delicately.
"I wanted to be with Draco. I didn't know anybody in the school-!"
"That's a lie!" Cecilia shouted, laughing. "You must have known at least thirty Slytherin's in that school."
"Let me rephrase that. I didn't know any Slytherin's in the school that I actually liked. Well, there are some of them I like, but they usually hang with Draco." Juliunna shrugged.
"And? How did you convince Dumbledore to let you skip two whole school years?" She asked.
"Oh, I didn't convince Dumbledore. Daddy cleared it with the school governors back when he still was one." Juliunna shrugged.
"Well that's one way to do it." Cecilia grinned.
"It's nice seeing you Aunt Cece, are you coming to the Quidditch World Cup?" Juliunna asked, getting up from the couch.
"No. But Blaise is. Speaking of Blaise honey, he's in the garden." Aunt Cecelia smirked widely, pointing out at the bay window.
"I'll go see him." Juliunna smirked, and jogged over to the door. The second she opened it, an owl swooped in.
"Juliunna," Cecilia said, looking at the letter the owl held in its mouth.
"Your father says hi. And that he just caught Draco in his room."
"Oh," Jules said, teetering on her heels.
"Well have fun." Cecelia said, ripping up the note.
"Nice one."
