Chapter 27: Not a bad day after all

Two days before our birthday and...we got some weird looks. Ron and Hermione were looking suspiciously at us. Well, Ron gave up after about two hours but Hermione kept it going, with pauses between, and the twins kept looking between me and Harry and Ron and Hermione, laughing their asses off.

I tried finding out what was wrong with them, but everytime they opened their mouths to talk, they would start laughing uncontrollably. After a day though, I dropped it, although it was still bothering me.

But now I had more important things to worry about: our birthday was tomorrow and from what I got out from the twins before their laughting crisis , and from the ambiguous letters I got from Draco, my birthday should be feared.

Getting and reading the letters, although they were short, because we were mainly talking in our minds, was a relatively hard thing, because Hermione was very curious and Percy was too. But I got them one way or another and the last one made me wish I never had a birthday the same time as my brother, bacause, well…that was it:

"Dear Selene,

I miss you and I know I can't tell too much in a letter because of the secrets and, unfortunately, my father. But I think it's not too much to say that I can't wait for your birthday to come and I made, along with the twins something special for you. I greatly hope you'll like it and I await for a letter from you as soon as you recieve what was prepared for you. My mother thought that now you should get something from her and I really think and hope you'll like it. The more the time passes, the more impatient I become for the year to start.

Hoping to see you soon,

Draco L. Malfoy

P.S.: Dont mind the weirdness of this letter, my mom got her nose in it a bit. "

The Post Scriptum was obviously written just before the letter was sent, because it was not so neat compared to the rest of it. But he was right, some of the leter had a too formal writing, it was obviously that an adult took part in writing it. But I really didn't mind, I was happy to have someone outside of Hogwarts care about me. Well, someone more, I had the Weasleys after all.

The dreaded day came faster than I wanted, even faster than I expected and I was woken up in a way I didnt, but I should have anticipated.

"Goooooood moooorniiiing your royal birthday giiiiirl!!!" two voices chorused.

I jumped from the bed and they caught me, cause I was about to fall.

"Oh, well, arent you a bit too…"

"…clumsy for a 12 year old ?"

"Oh, shut it! How early is it?"

" Well, we could say you slept a little…"

"…too much. The cake is already in the kitchen, and…."

"…for a little while we tried to keep away Hermiones bewilderment…"

"…at finding out it's your birthday too. She feels…"

"...very bad for not buying you anything. Well, that's all, isn't it Gred?"

"I think it is, Forge."

"Then let's go and let the Sleeping Beauty get ready."

They left and I pulled on a pair of high waisted jeans and a light pink sweater. The moment I got downstairs, Hermione jumped from a sofa she was sitting on and runned up to me with Ron on her heels, pushing me in a hug and started saying as fast as she could:

"Oh, Selene, Im sososo sorry. I wasn't really paying attention sometimes and I don't really know if you ever said, but I really can't forgive myself cause I forgot your birthday and…"

"Hermione, calm down. It's ok, you're right, I never said, I mean, I knew it was Harry's birthday and mine wasn't so important, after all, he is The Boy Who Lived and he is very important for our world. I'm not so special."

Fred and George started laughing along with Harry in a corner and Mrs Weasley was slightly chuckling.

"Whats so funny ? " Hermione asked as I raised one of my eyebrows so high that it was threatening to get lost in my hair.

"Nothing. " They all said.

The day went by really fast and I wasn't really very attentive to anything. But the night…

Fred and George entered my room where I hid after the party got too much. They had a little lightning bolt shaped cake with a 12 candle in the middle and Fred held a round box with a huge ass ribbon on it. I blowed the candle and we ate the candle. Then it was time to open the box.

Inside it was an album and a little black velvet box. The photo album was filled with photos taken in secret of me, with the twins and Draco. On the first page it was written: " One day doesn't define your life. Make your own destiny and memories. Yours, Fred, George and Draco."

In the little box there was a little note: "This is the second. It is yours now. You deserve it. I hope we'll meet soon face to face because I haven't seen you in eleven years. Narcissa Malfoy." It was another charm, a fire red little sphere. On its side it was written: " Frienship". I also hoped the day will come when I meet the woman that was so close to my mother. And it will come.

A/N: Thanks for reading and do come back. See you in five days.
