Chapter 4. Back at Hogwarts, School beings.

The hand that led him into the school knew exactly where to lead her. They stopped before the teachers' table and the headmaster spoke.

"Draco Malfoy married this summer, I would like all of you to welcome he and his new wife to this new school year. Mrs. Melody Malfoy has chosen not to be sorted, but instead join her husband in Slytherin."

Most people looked shocked and Draco snickered softly as he led her to their housetable. "Father did right when he forbade the papers to reveal the news until school started."

She snickered silently, though most slytherin knew of it, the others looked gob smacked.

"perhaps we should seat ourselves."

"Of course, beloved."

She smiled as he helped her get seated. No longer were she allowed to do anything on her own... at all times did her husband help or at least advice her. Even with things she could do perfectly well on her own...

"Are you feeling fine My Heart?"

She was startled out of her thoughts, "Yes, Draco, I am perfectly alright."

A reassuring smile made him look awed. It was amazing how little time had gone till she had had him around her little finger. Though, she obeyed him too so... it went up in up.

"How are you Mrs. Malfoy?"

"I'm fine, please call me Melody though... Mrs. Malfoy makes me feel so old." She answered Zabini.

The black haired youth nodded and she found herself some fruit.

"Are you not hungry Melody?" Draco asked, "You did not eat much yesterday and you need to preserve your strength."

"I'm fine Dray, I'll just ask your godfather for some fruit if I find it neccesary."

The blonde sighed, knowing that she would not listen to reason now. Well... Severus would get her food, though he wished she ate more at meals.

"How is it to be married to Draco, Melody?"

"It is fine... Parkinson was it? He is a perfect gentleman and only mine." The slight possessive tone made him shiver. He might be the "husband" but he sure did not decide everything. While she never showed it among others, she could be quite stubborn and set in her ways when she wanted to.

"Yes... yes, it is." Pansy said, not understanding or even realizing how she had lost 'her' Malfoy to an unknown woman.

"Do you wish to leave early my sweet? You seem tired."

"That would be adequate Draco." She answered formally, whishing to be as far from the Parkinson girl as possible. She had NO right to ask how it was to be a Malfoy; the bitch had destroyed her chances herself.

Draco led her to their room, just beside the quarters belonging to their head of house. It would not be proper to let them live together in the dorms... or to separate them. Therefore they had been given their own place to live, outside of the Slytherin tower. That would ensure that they could keep the proper distance to the 'children' at Hogwarts as well as be able to do their own duties as a married couple.

Author notes + answers to reviews: THANK YOU FOR YOUR REVIEWS!!!! Concerning quidditch... (Gina Potter) I don't think that either the Malfoys nor her father would allow her to play it professionally... and being a seeker would make people suspisious. Of course, while they (the couple) are at home they can play one on one... And (for opal) concerning Remus... During the transformation Harry Potter was changed into Melody Riddle... Tom Riddle looked a bit like Harry when they met in second year... and she is now a true mix between her parents and Tom Riddle. Remus might be able to find something familiar about the way she smell... but he will not be able to connect the dots... And in this chapter I hint that she will not be as easy to controll as she seems, but Melody has learned how to get her will a bit more 'hidden'. As a woman of her position (no matter what else they are, the Malfoys are Pureblood and has a standard to keep) she can not show any sigs of 'rebelling'. That would look bad on both the Malfoy's and her 'family'... But you'll see what I mean... I think:) And last... sorry for taking so long. I've started to write several stories (most of which will NOT be seen on for the simple reason that I will never finish them all... and that I personally hate profiles that has lots of unfinished stories... ) ah... real last: I've started in the next chapter:) it will hopefully be up soon.
