Chapter 2

I opened my eyes to what I believed to be their study. It was much larger than what I was used to. I mean seriously how much room you need for a study. More like a library. I notice there are three very mysterious people in the room looking very proper and such. This of course pissed me off. I follow my mother's advice as I greet them...

"I am very pleased that I have the chance to finally meet you Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy," I say as much politeness I can muster up, "as well as you Young Malfoy."

I heard my mother cough a little, to let me know that I have done something wrong. I know I had to address the young Malfoy like I have known him for years. I knew why, but my mother has never told me face to face and well my brothers did not approve. I was to enter my fifth year in Hogwarts as the Fiancée to Mr. Scorpius Malfoy. Not very fair in my defense. First year in public Wizarding school and I am already bound to one man. That I don't even know that well that I might add. The papers were signed for our engagement once I was born only three months after Scorpius.

I have never really gotten to know Scorpius because he lived on a completely different continent. Mother always talked about him though. I guess the physical description of him was close. He was well built, but was a little pale. He had blonde hair like his fathers and I think I see a smirk on his face. I hate it when people smirk it make my brain go everywhere, thinking of all the possibilities why they are smirking. My head started to hurt and I tried my hardest to not pass out. Luckily Malcolm and Cody noticed before anything bad could happen and asked to be shown to our rooms.

My mother insisted that Scorpius shows us our rooms. It was a very silent and awkward walk to my room. My brothers on either side of me and Scorpius in the lead. The first to leave was Malcolm he practically slammed the door shut. Making my headache even worse. The next to leave was Cody but not before hugging me and giving me the advice "get some rest" he kissed my forehead and then disappeared into his room. I don't know why my room was so far away from my brothers until I found out who my neighbor was. My head was pounding. I tried to reach for my doorknob but somehow I tripped and my whole world went in slow motion. I saw the floor ever so slowly approach me. I shut my eyes waiting for impact, but it never came. Instead there was a slight jerk on my arm and I was engulfed in warmth. I opened my eyes to notice my face was up against a well toned chest. I looked up to see those grey eyes that I have heard so much about. Never in my whole life have I ever felt so safe.

"Are you alright?" Scorpius said in the gentlest tone that I have heard in ages.

"Yes, I'm fine. I just need some rest" I said trying to hide my humiliation from him, but to no avail. I saw a small smile creep onto his face. This in return made me smile. He let me go and I tried once more to open the door but just managed to grab the doorknob before falling to my knees. I heard a soft chuckle and then felt and arm wrap around my waist and lead me into my room and onto my bed. He gently pulled the covers over me. He then walked over to the door but before leaving he said

"If you need anything, don't be afraid to ask." This of course my heart skip. How was I so lucky to get forced into a marriage with the sweetest man I have ever met?

"You were born for this Kathryn; you can't go back on your word!"

"I absolutely can go back on my word, simply because you didn't give me the required information that I wanted."

"I should have made the unbreakable vow! I knew a girl like you would do this"

"What do you mean a girl like me, is that an insult?"

"You are dismissed."

I woke with a start. I looked around the unfamiliar room to find that it was much larger than I needed. Really I lonely needed a corner of this room. I continued to look around my room until I noticed a spiral staircase. I being my curious self decided to have a look what this mysterious staircase led to. After I have reached to top step I was amazed of what I saw. It was full of the most beautiful boards I have ever seen, but that wasn't all that was there. There was a whole was full of books, and not just any books healer books. No one knew about my dream of being a healer except for Cody, and I made him promise he wouldn't tell anyone. I glanced at the clock to see that it was around seven in the morning. I bolt toward the door only for it to be opened before I could reach it.

"Scorpius?! What are you doing here?"

"I thought I should wake you since breakfast would be ready in an hour. Sorr disturbed you."

"Oh, no I have been up for a bit, I was just looking around since I just sort of collapsed last night. By the way thank you for helping to bed."

"Well if you don't mind me asking would you care to accompany me to breakfast this lovely morning?"

I take a quick look around my room finding no excuse to say no.

"Sure I would love to."

We had only been walking for a few moments in silence when Scorpius spoke.

"If you don't mind me asking why did you collapse like that?"

"Oh nothing for you to worry about just all the nervousness that comes along with starting a new school is all." I say with a nervous laugh.

"Well if you say so it looked really serious so I told your mother."

He did what how could he she is the only reason I am here. That bitch. Actually no that would be an insult to female dogs. Merlin help me through this god forsaken day.
