Chapter 4

The music in the lounge had just finished its last classical track when a high pitched scream was heard from the kitchen, what had become of Narcissa?

Draco had heard the high pitched scream from behind his locked doors to his room. He belted to the door forgetting it was locked and ran straight into it falling to the floor on his backside. Suddenly a couple of houselves where there fussing over their young master. Draco just wanted to get to his mother as he still felt bad about what he had said to her earlier that day.

Downstairs everyone in the lounge stopped and panicked at the high pitched scream from the kitchen.

Draco ran into the lounge to see what had happened, he thought someone could have been murdered or something else strange had gone on.

Draco's mother came running in smiling and looking thrilled, holding a thick golden sealed envelope.

"Look Dracy, look!" his mother said, ignoring the eyes upon her.

"He doesn't like being called Dracy" Pansy muttered through gritted teeth.

Draco shot her a look, if looks could kill pansy would be dead many times.

"What is it mother?" Draco asked looking at the envelope in his mother's right hand.

"Look at the seal Dracy, look!" His mother said while smiling.

Draco did as he was told and looked at the envelopes golden seal and knew what she meant. "You mean that's for me?!" Draco was shocked, his mother passed him the envelope and Draco ripped it open and read the paper inside it.

"What is Draco?" Asked Blaise.

"Looks like you're going to be behaving a lot better at school this year, because I'm head boy" Draco said as he gave a half smile.

"Wow, congrats mate" Blaise said smiling.

"Yeah, well done Draco." Goyle and Crabbe congratulated Him.

When everything had settled down and the mothers had started their coffee morning again Pansy walked up to Draco and said "So, head boy hey?" She said with a small smile.

"Look Pansy, I'm sorry about shouting at you earlier." Draco said

"Nah, its fine" she said.

"No, I was out of order; I'm sorry Pansy, forgiven?" Draco asked.

"Only if you do something nice for me."Pansy teased.

"Like this?" Draco asked, with that he lift her chin and kissed her.

Pansy had dreamed if this moment for a long time and it was just as perfect as she had imagined, apart from the fact all the parents including hers and Draco's were looking, but she didn't care, when he broke away she pulled him back, but Draco didn't want all the parents looking so he pulled Pansy by her hand into the hall where she put her arms around his neck and said

"Congratulations head boy"

"Well thank you." Draco said.

Pansy got closer smiled and whispered in Draco's ear "Now you're my boy too."

Draco smiled, not quite reaching his eyes as he thought of the girl he was holding now. He liked pansy, but she had an overwhelming obsession with him when they were close as they are now. He adored her, in a way that made him feel like he was pleasing his family; and his fear of isolation. Draco's fear wasn't of being alone physically, but it was of having nobody behind him and he was more anxious than ever even though he had nothing to fear.

"Draco." his mother called from the lounge "say goodbye to your guests."

"Yes mother." He replied and left Pansy outside as he said goodbye to Blaise, Goyle, Crabbe and their mothers.

"Come along Pansy" Pansy's mother called.

"Well, bye Draco." Said Pansy

"See you." Said Draco as she waved goodbye.

"Well" said Narcissa with a smile "That went well, look at my baby all grown up, head boy! I'm so proud Drake... No sorry I mean Draco."

"It's ok mum" Draco said, he had never called her mum before it felt do Weird and strange but it also felt so right.

"I wonder who the head girl is." Said his mother pulling him into a hug.

"Yeah." said Draco "I wonder."
