The Intended


She was greeted at the door by one of the new butlers in the house. She let her bags falls to the floor and tried to shake off the water in her hair and clothes from the rain outside.

"Please take my things to the guest house on the property later" She said to the butler as she strolled into the parlor of the big house, without even telling the man who she was.

She found NaNaih in the parlor sitting in a wooden rocking chair just looking at the pouring rain outside through the big greenhouse like windows.

"So I hear there's going to be a reunion in the making tomorrow" The old woman in the rocking chair said not turning to see who was behind her, though already knowing who it was.

She grinned and went to the fireplace and started a fire. After not saying anything for a few minutes she sat in the chair next to the old woman and smiled, able to answer her old mentor now that she was warm and toasty.

"Yup, but I heard bigger things about tomorrow than just a reunion, if you know what I mean" She said wiggling her eyebrows.

"Really now?"

"Yes indeed, I hear that our young Bad Faith is in for a real rude awakening" She said, she never called him by his first name and never liked calling him by his last name, it never suited him and now she knew why. It wasn't supposed to.

"You mean because of Sinny?" That's what the old woman would always call Sindrea.

"What does Sinny have to do with anything?" She furrowed her brows.

"I've been trying to set the two up since they were ten Ki, and both are coming tomorrow. That's what I mean." The old woman said rolling her eyes at the younger woman.

"Oh that" Ki said. "No it's not about her gran, it's about his father"

"What about Lucius?" She said in a low and angry voice, it was very apparent to any who knew her that she never liked talking about that one son of hers.

"Well he slowly killed Narcissa" the younger woman said softly with a sigh. She liked Narcissa, she had always been a very graceful and lovely woman, and Lucius just couldn't stand how much everyone loved her and supported her more than they ever did him in his own family. This family.

"Oh dear God" The old woman said after she digested the younger ones words. "So that's why the young one sounded so guarded on the phone." The younger nodded. "That man is a monster"

"Yup but I can't tell you the rest of the story though" She said a little guiltily. "I saw the rest in a vision, and you know how the rules are about me ruining the future." The older woman nodded in agreement.

"So what do we do?"

"Nothing actually. I believe love has already offered to help in this case"

Bad Faith

"Why can't I stop thinking about you?" He said softly to himself. All he could think about after getting to his room in the leaky cauldron was about how he saw Granger, how he talked to Granger and how now he only thought about Granger. He closed the door to his room and sighed leaning on the door.

"Infernal woman" He said aloud.

"If you want to catch my attention Malfoy, I think you should at least not call me something insulting, and maybe speak a bit louder." He jumped in surprised and jumped to his right finding a very sleepy looking Granger, still sporting her new look. She yawned and stretched while waiting for his reply, not really knowing that he was thinking about her.

"What are you doing here?"

"Haven't we gone through all of this before?"

"Yes we did but we never answered each others questions" He said while crossing his arms over his chest and leaning on the wall.

"Yeah we never did" She said and then shrugged. "Oh well" She walked ahead of him to the stairs and waved good bye "It was nice seeing you again Malfoy, bye now"

He went after her and caught up easily. He stood in front of her and didn't let her pass. "Granger" She looked in his eyes. "What would you say to me buying you a coffee?"

"I'd say buy me a drink instead" She said putting her hands in her pockets and grinning at him. "And that I'd go if you stopped calling me Granger"

"Why? I don't know you well enough to call you by your first name"

"I know that but Granger isn't really my last name. I only used it here so people won't know who I really am"

That surprised him, now he had a million more questions in his head about her and it wasn't helping with his problem from before. "Alright then what should I call you?"

"How about you call me Shae?"

"Shae?" He looked at her in confusion. 'Where have I heard that before?' he thought.

"Yeah, my middle name. Can't give you my first or last name so I'll give you the one that most don't recognize." She gave him a genuine smile then, to him it seemed as if her beauty had intensified with that one smile.

He shook his head and gave a short laugh. "You've become way too interesting" He said looking up at her "Shae"

"Wow and on your first try-" She was cut off by the sound of loud voices and steps on the stairs that sounded way to familiar to her.

"Come on Harry the spell's pointed us to the leaky cauldron and we know she's not downstairs. She has to be in one of the rooms" Ron's voice boomed out of the staircase

"I heard you the first time but how are we going to corner her for information? Neither of us was exactly the brains and now we have to figure it out before w do something stupid" Draco noticed how she got nervous with the voices coming up the stair and silently took her hand and took her to the end of the hall and up the other flight of stairs. When they got to the floor with their rooms in it he kicked open his door and shoved her inside.

They stood Sindrea pressed to the door and Draco pressed on Sindrea. She put her head on his shoulder and let out a sigh. After hearing the loud voices go and leave just as quick all the while keeping silent. She let out a laugh. Draco looked into her eyes.

"Shae, what's going on?"
