Summery: After finishing Hogwarts, Candi Riddle wants a new life with her boyfriend, Tony Zypherus. But, with a little help from Draco, is it more complicated then it seems? R/R! R for violence, cussing and content of psychotic behavior.
~~~~~~
"Good!" Tony said. He looked impressed, which made Candi feel like everything was perfect.
Candi laid back in her chair and looked at the ceiling. "What now?" she asked, with a yawn.
Tony continued to smile at her. "For you, a little sleep would help."
"What happens tomorrow?" Candi said.
"I dunno, get our names changed?"
Candi tore her eyes from the ceiling and looked at him. She liked her name perfectly fine, no reason to change it.
"It's so we can start our lives off fresh." Tony explained without her even asking.
"Both names?" Candi said.
"Only our first names," Tony replied.
Candi thought about that for a second. This was a good chance to change her name, but did she want to? "Yeah. I want my name changed to K-a- n-d-i."
Tony looked at her.
Candi could feel her face go pink.
"On second thought, I'm not going to change mine."
"Ok." Candi said strangely. "Well then, I'm going to Gringotts and get some money."
"I already got you a room." Tony said and gave her a key.
~~~~~~
Candi walked down the strangely filled street of Diagon Alley. She had heard a little while back that some famous book writer was going to be at Flourish and Blotts. Why he was going to be there at one o'clock in the morning was beyond Candi. She made her way through the crowd and walked towards Gringotts. When she got in she presented her key to a goblin.
"Griphook will assist you. I'm afraid you will have to share a cart, we're strangely busy this time of night."
"Yeah," Candi said, looking around the bank hall. "Something about a book signing?"
"You aren't a part of that?" He asked.
"No. I didn't even know it was going on."
"Go to cart 13."
Candi thanked him and went to the platform. To her surprise, Draco Malfoy was standing there looking very annoyed.
"Hey," Candi said, surprised.
Draco looked at her and smiled. He had circles under his eyes from obvious lack of sleep, but his silver-blonde hair was still slick and combed back. "Don't tell me you've come too the book signing too."
Candi looked at him. "*You* came to the book signing?" she exclaimed.
"Yeah, my damn dad promised my little sister Kristen he'd take her, but he got caught up in *business* so I have to take her. Why are you here?"
"I'm here with Tony." Candi replied.
A glint of hatred flashed across Draco's eyes. "That idiot?"
"Excuse me?" Candi snapped.
"That idiot is always messing things up for the…boss."
Candi knew Draco was talking about Voldemort. The two of them were already death eaters. Candi kind of felt behind, but people were deciding if she should become one for a little while. "Do you know if I got in yet?"
Draco shook his head.
They didn't speak the rest of the time. Candi thought she saw Draco fall asleep half way down to her vault, but he was shaken awake by a sharp turn. When they got back to the platform and walked away from it Draco's little sister came up to them. "Hey Candi." She said cheerfully then she turned to Draco, who yawned.
"When's the damn guy coming out?" Draco asked.
"Never, apparently. He never showed up. Probably asleep in his hotel. So, I want to go home."
Draco looked at her furiously. "You mean you made me come out here at one o'clock at night for a guy that doesn't even show?"
"I guess so." Kristen said, shrugging then walked away.
Candi noticed Draco's hands itch, as though he wanted to put them around Kristen's neck. As he slowly put his hands up Candi caught his wrist and he looked at her. "She's your sister."
"I don't care." Draco snapped. "I haven't had sleep in two days!"
"Though she *is* really annoying, everyone's going to see you do it."
Draco slowly lowered his hands and walked towards the door and Candi followed. "By the way," she said. "I'm having my name changed so now you spell it K-a-n-d-i."
Draco glanced at her. "What's the difference?"
"Nothing, I just want it spelt that way."
Draco didn't seem to understand but was too tired to argue or to even care. "I'll see you later." He said as he started to walk to Knockturn Alley then turned around. "A C or a K, again?"
Candi smiled. "K."
"Say hi to the ass for me." Draco said.
As Draco turned around Candi went down the now empty alley and went back to the Leaky Cauldron. Tony asked where she had been but said to never mind since he saw her yawn. Candi made it to her room and fell asleep feeling like nothing could go wrong, but when she awoke the next morning everything did.
