Starr walked into Professor McGonagall's class and shut the door quickly behind her. She turned to see the class staring at her.
"It's nice of you to join us." McGonagall replied. "Please take a seat."
Starr hurried over to the empty spot next to Hermione. Hermione looked at her with a questioned look but Starr shook her head. "I'll tell you later."
The girls got out their wands and started to do their lesson when something tapped Starr on the shoulder. She turned to see a piece of paper levitating in the air. She looked around the class room and noticed Draco's wand extended towards her. Rolling her eyes she took the paper and turned back around. She handed it to Hermione who opened it and read it first. As she read the last line her face was red with anger. Starr reached out for the paper but Hermione held it away. "No you don't want to read it."
"Yes I do please just hand it over." Starr said grabbing it. She looked down at the note and started to read:
Dearest Cousin,
Father knows about you and The Weasel twin. I'm sure you cant get out of this one. Lets see what the great Starr Black has to say when her Red headed boyfriend suddenly disappears for life.
The Best ever,
Draco
Starr rolled her eyes and quietly jinxed the paper so it know read.
Dearest Cousin,
I could care less what you thing of my gorgeous boyfriend. At least he can get a girl other than the Flower chick that hangs on you all the time. What is she like half Dobby? You should really send her back to the house she came from.
Your oh so loveable cousin.
Starr Light Black
She handed the note to Hermione who read it with a silent laugh. She then Sent it back to Draco. Surprised to see the note back he took it and read it. He didn't see Professor McGonagall standing behind him when he jinxed the paper again.
"Mr. Malfoy, that would be a detention. There is no note passing in my class." She took the note from him and headed to the front of the class. Starr and Hermione turned to see Draco turn as red as the Weasley's hair.
"He is so lame." Starr replied as she started back on her assignment. The bell rang and the students filled out of the class room. Draco waited till Starr was infront of him before he started out of the room.
"Your not the Star of my father's eye any more mudblood!" Draco insulted her.
"I'm sorry Draco but you must have the wrong person. There is no mudblood here." Starr replied turning to face him.
"Your standing by one." Draco smirked looking over at Hermione. "She must be rubbing off on you."
"Grow up Draco!" Fern said smaking him hard across the face. "Your not five any more Draco. Your fifteen. Now start acting like it!"
Draco rubbed his face sending death glared her way. Starr starred him down and soon his eyes became soft. "Sorry." He replied as he turned the other way. The student around them stared in disbelief as Draco walked down the hall his head bent over.
"Let get you cooled off before you take your anger out on some one else." Hermione said leading Starr away from the crowd. She lead her down the hall and into the Gryffindor common room. Where they met Ginny and the twins. George looked at Starr with a concerned look on her face.
"What happened to you guys?" Fred asked as Harry and Ron went around the two girls to the couch. The girls hadn't even noticed them behind them.
"Draco!" Starr replied feeling her anger fill her body. Her whole body seemed to be turning red.
"Come here." George said holding his arms out to her. Starr walked over to him and sat on his lap. He wrapped his arms around her and Starr felt her anger disappear. She smiled and kissed him lightly on the lips.
"Come on lets go eat." Ginny said getting up from her spot next to Harry. Every one nodded in agreement and left for the Great hall. When the reached the doors and entered into the great hall they noticed the Slytherins watching them closely. Starr stopped in her tracks when she saw a tall figure walking towards her. She looked down at the floor and dropped George's hand. The man walked up to her and she could feel his icy glare upon her.
"Hello, Lucius." Starr replied slowly looking up into his eyes, but he casted his eyes else were.
"I am very disappointed in you Starr." He said taking her arm and dragging her way from George. He lead her out of the great hall and out into the yard. "Don't disgrace my family more than you must. We took you in as our own child and you repay us by going with a Weasley. You must call it off with him this instant or his and your life will be in danger. Do you understand me?"
"Yes Lucius." Starr answered hiding her face from him. She didn't want him to see that her eyes were filled with tears. "I will call it off."
"Don't cry." Lucius said looking over his shoulder. "Your making a scene."
"Making a scene!" Starr said in out rage. "You come to school to tell me that I am no longer allowed to date the one guy I like in this whole school! And I'm making a scene! Your as bad as Draco! I cant believe I had once looked up to you!"
"To make sure you don't go back to the Mudblood lover you will be under Draco's eye all the time plus you are to get a new boyfriend. Some one more suitable from Draco's house." Lucius said. Looking at the crowd of Slytherins that materialized from the great hall. He looked at the boys then brought one forward. He was the same year as the Weasley twins. "This is Miles Bletchley. Your single aren't you?"
Miles nodded as he hungrily looked Starr up and down.
"Good." Lucius said happily. "Your now going out with Draco's adorable cousin Starr Black."
Miles smiled at her and placed his hand around her waist. "I can get used to this."
Starr pushed Miles away and glared up at Lucius her eyes flaming with anger. "I hate you more than I've hated any one in my life." She pushed threw the crowd and up to Gryffindor tower. No one was in the common room when she got there. She was glad of that. She didn't want to have to answer any questions. She quickly raced to her bed and threw herself upon it. Lucius had never treated her that way. She felt like such a fool.
"Starr?" She heard Hermione's voice call from the common room. "Starr are you alright?"
"Please just leave me alone." Starr cried in reply. She didn't want to talk to any one.
"I'm sorry, but we cant just leave you up her all depressed as you are." Hermione replied. Starr sat up to see Ginny standing by Hermione's side. Both girls smiled sweetly at her. "Friend don't let friends stay depressed."
"Thanks but nothing can change this." Starr said crying harder. Her two friends hurried to her side and gave her a hug.
"What did he do?" Ginny asked with concern.
"He is forcing me to break up with George and date this guy named Miles Bletchley!"
"Ew." Hermione said simply. Starr laughed and pulled away from her friends. They looked at her for a while then sat down on either side of her.
"He threatened to kill both of us if I didn't do as I was told." Starr said with a little shiver. "I know he was not kidding. I had seen him kill a house elf we used to have. It was supposed to look after me but Narcissa ordered it around and it never did anything for me. He got so mad the he just killed it right there in front of all of us."
"That's just not right." Ginny said with a look of disgust on her face.
