Hey guys, I'm back and this is my first update. It will be a bit short. I'm trying to make them longer, but time is still a bit tight. They ill get longer, don't worry.

Nikki's POV

I woke up the next day with a huge smile on my face. Haden met his mum and he seemed so happy. I rubbed my eyes and trudged out of bed. I went to the washroom and took a brief shower before getting out. I went to the massive closet and put on some muggle jeans with a silver and green sweater. I put on some sandals and went to the mirror. The brunette locks were a mess, being all over the place. I pulled out my wand and put a simple straitening charm on it after the drying charm. I looked at myself and smiled. My hair was perfect in my opinion, brown and wavy. It was curly but not frizzy and fell to my mid back. I shook my head before putting on a small amount of makeup to cover the bags under my eyes. Damn, how late were we up last night? After I finish with my look, I head to the door after grabbing my hand bag. Going down the massive staircase, I noticed the luxurious manor for what it was. When Draco brags, he certainly has a right to. The walls were stone and the floors were marble. Lights hand down from the overhead, making the assumption of Malfoy Manor being dark and gloomy wrong. The paintings of the Malfoy ancestors and either reading, chatting happily, or brooding. Must run in the family. I smirk before coming upon the dining room. To my surprise, Draco, Aunt Cissa, Uncle Lucius and Haden are already there. I sit sown between Haden and Uncle Lucius, who is at the head of the table. I smile at Haden who smiles back. Damn he's cute. My god new clothes do wonders for him, jeans and a sweater, just like me. When did he get so… in shape? My god, snap out of it Nikki… best friend remember… not boyfriend… right.

No One's POV

"Morning Nikki, good sleep?" Haden asked.

"Brilliant, you?"

"Best I've had in weeks." You just don't know I slept so good because I dreamt of mum and… you. He thought.

"Great, say, would you like to go to Gringotts and Diagon Alley today to do some shopping and check those trunks out? We could go before we see you mum for dinner." She asked hopeful, eyes shimmering with hope.

"Anything for you. Aunt Cissa, Uncle Lucius, Draco you want to come? Gringotts I think we should do by ourselves, but the Christmas shopping might be something we all want to do." Haden asked.

"Sure, we can go after breakfast." Aunt Cissa said before Dobby popped in and asked for breakfast requests. Nikki said an apple, as did Haden. Draco said pumpkin juice and toast while Narcissa and Lucius asked for tea and a piece of toast each.

After they finished breakfast, the three Malfoy's headed upstairs to get ready for the day while Nikki and Haden moved to the couch in the living room. Sitting on one of the many love seats, the pair leaned into each other. Nikki, blushing when she felt Haden's hand move the snake around her waist. Haden smirked when he noticed her blushing and moved his hand to pull he closer. She leaned into his touch, as always, and looked up into bright green eyes. He looked down at those chocolate orbs he learned to loved and leant down to her ear.

"I love you eyes, you know that? They shine with knowledge and love. Perfect." Saying the last part after leaning back, seeing the smile on her face.

"Ditto. Your eyes are… brilliant. Haden..."

"No, don't you say anything smart or witty. Just… live in this moment… this perfect moment." He said looking at her lips, which were surprisingly close now. He leaned down, rather slowly. She leaned up, noticing what he was doing. Haden's hand snaked around her torso more so, which he didn't think as possible until he tried, and pulled her to him. She put her hands around her neck, playing with the tuff of his hair until they faces finally leaned forward enough for their lips to touch. Both, too lost in the moment, noticed the bright glow surrounding them or that the three Malfoys chose that moment to walk in. Haden and Nikki continued to kiss hungrily while the three blonds stared opened mouthed. Draco had a small smirk on his face as well. After what felt like and eternity, they pulled apart and leaned their foreheads against each other. Both lost in the moment, they still didn't notice the blonds until one of the had to go and ruin it.

"What the bloody hell was that?" Draco said. His mother hit him upside the head. Haden and Nikki turned quickly, not bothering to mov apart.

"You… you two just glowed… when you kissed." Narcissa said.

"Not… not possible… hasn't been seen… in 600 years… can't be… they've known each other forever… they can't be." Lucius said muttering to himself.

"What do you mean? What can't we be? What hasn't happened in 600 years?" Nikki said.

Lucius recovered only to stare at them for a moment before… waiting for something. Just before she could ask, a black owl perched itself on an open window. It hotted, then dropped two small parcels before flying off, not expecting a response. Lucius walked over to the dropped parcels, picking them up, opening them and staring at them wide eyed. He handed them to the two confused teens before walking over to his confused wife and son. Draco started to walk over to Nikki and Haden before Lucius stopped him shaking his head no. Nikki and Haden looked at the three before shaking their heads and looking down at the letters in Nikki's hand. She unfolded them and read the first one out loud for everyone to hear.

Mr and Mrs. Riddle,

The ministry had just been informed of your soul bonding and marriage. We are pleased to inform you that the ministry acknowledges your privacy and will not repeat or share this information with anyone who you do not want. We see you are staying with the Malfoy's and I must say, we applaud you two staying with such a wonderful family. We will be hoping to hear from you soon, seeing as this is the first soul bond for centuries. Please make your way to the ministry as soon as you can to fill out the proper papers.

We wish you the best,

Cornelius Fudge

Minister of Magic

Nikki and Haden started at each other, before looking at Lucius who motioned for them to read the next one before asked too many questions. Nikki and Haden looked down at the other before she unfolded it and read it aloud.

Mr. and Mrs. Riddle,

We at Gringotts are pleased to inform you that your soul bond has brought up some pressing news. We think that your magic could have blocks of some sort on it. We also believe that your wife might have some as well on her. If you could come into Gringotts come, we could take these blocks off and you could get on with you life.

Sincerely,

Ragnok

Director of Gringotts

Nikki and Haden, again, looked at the Malfoys who were still looking like deer in headlights. Lucius was the first to recover and walk over to the couple and sit in the chair across from them.

"Alright, question time."

"How? What? When? Where? How? Huh? How?" Nikki spluttered.

"You two have just been soul bonded, which hasn't happened in 600 years, thus making you technically married. When you kissed, you sealed it. Haden, because your father is… not with us right now… you are your head of house. I don't know which ones those are exactly so when you go to Gringotts, you should check that out as well. Nikki, because you are married to him, you are part of his house. As for the blocks on you magic, I will admit, it is a high possibility, seeing who you two are. But I would advise you to, get to Gringotts soon because those blocks could be harmful to you magic in the long term." He said looking the two over with a smile and a sigh. Draco, recovered from his shock, walked over to Haden and said,

"Hurt her and you answer to me." He said, trying to sound scary, but the smirk showed he was joking.

"Uh huh." Haden said, smirking as well.

"No but seriously, don't hurt her or you're dead."

"Yes sir." Haden said before turing to Nikki. He took her hands in his and looked in her eyes, pleading.

"Are you okay with this? I mean, I know it's not ideal but..." he wanted to say more, but her lips connecting with his stopped him. He took the kiss happily before they broke apart and they she responded to him.

"Haden, I'm nothing but happy. I've spent years with you. I think I can put up with you for a few more. Besides, what would I do without you? And to answer your next question, which I know your thinking, yes, I do love you, and I don't regret the kiss or the marriage or the soul bond. Now, why don't we head to Gringotts to see this magic blocking nonsense? We can check the chests while we're there as well as do our shopping." She said before leaning towards his ear. "I know exactly what to get you."

"What?"

"Now what fun would that be?" She said smirking at his annoyance. Getting up, they called Dobby, who brought their cloaks. They headed to the floo before jumping in, saying Diagon Alley. The Malfoys missed the mysterious and trouble brewing glances Nikki and Haden cast each other before heading to the alley as well.

Well there you have it, my first chapter since being back. Hope you enjoyed. Expect Diangon Alley, Weasley confrontations, and Gringotts.
