Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or anything related to him.We all know
who he belongs to.That wonderful wonderful woman J.K.Rowling
The carriage pulled up to the stately manor that was all too familiar. The lawns may have been groomed and the house well taken care of, but this place lacked one thing.Happiness. She had been inside enough times to know that any cheerfulness displayed was a front. This place made her uneasy.
'Might as well get used to it,you will be here for the next three hours atleast.' She said to herself.
She looked at her brother who was sitting across from her.He smiled at her and squeezed her hand.
"Let's go play nice for a little bit.That's all we have to do." He said
She groaned and he chuckled.
"I don't want to go play nice.I hate this place.And the way you and Daddy have to act inside."
He shook his head and opened the carriage door and stepped out.She took his hand stepped out as well. Their parent's carriage arrived a moment before them, and their parents were standing waiting for them.
They joined them and walked up the path to the door, knocking slightly her father and brother put on their masks. Celeste couldn't stand the fact that her brother had become a deatheater. He hadn't wanted to she knew that, but all the same, he was to nice to be something so wicked. The door opened and Celeste saw one of the Malfroy's many maids.
"Welcome," She said to them "May I take your cloaks."
"Yes, thank you." He father said
After they she had taken all their cloaks and hung them up she showed them into the ball room, where about fifty or so families were mulling around, talking and laughing. It didn't take Celeste to long to spot Draco, Pansy , And the other people she had grown up with. She groaned as Pansy made her way to Celeste.
"Celeste!" She said as she kissed her cheek and Celeste did the same in return "It's been ages. I heard about your little boyfriend.Shame really. Was he good in bed?"
Celeste felt the rage boiling in her stomache "Pansy, there are other things besides sex you know."
Celeste hated how she played it off to her friends that she hadn't really cared about Bryan.
'But these are not your friends' That annoying little voice told her 'These are aquaintences. Your forced to get along because your parents are friends.'
Pansy laughed "Then what could have possibly kept you interested in him all along?"
Celeste smirked "He was like a pet.A lap dog."
"Ah," Pansy said knowingly "The whole adoration thing."
"Yes," Celeste said "The adoration thing."
She tried to play it cool, but inwardly Celeste was seething.She wanted to throttle this sniveling little twit.
"Now come on." Pansy said pulling her in the direction of the couches their little group was sitting on "We've so much to catch up on."
Celeste sank down on the couch next to Goyle "Hello, Vincent." She smiled at him. He was the only one she could actually stand.He was really nice.Soft spoken and shy. Many people thought him stupid but that wasn't it. Yes of course he was a little slow, but when he got a grasp on things he could prove how bright he really was. No one but Celeste took notice though. What with Draco always around Vincent was always out shown.
The same way with her.Well not quite, everyone knew Celeste was bright, but the leading lady in this play was Pansy.
"Hello Cel." He said quietly "How have you been."
"So-so, and yourself."
"Same ole same ole." He said then laughed
"Hello Celeste." Draco said to her
"How do you do Draco?" She said curtly
He smirked at her "Great as always.No need to ask how you are though. Same cold hearted little brat that we've all known forever."
"Of course." She said then turned back to Vincent who was now in a discussion about the all so hated Harry Potter.
'Well this leaves me in a very nice position. Forced to make conversation with these nimrods.'
"So Celeste, I heard your transferring to Hogwarts." Blaise said from across from her.
"Yes. Had a bloody hell of time trying to get the 'rents to let me sat at Beauxbaxtons but of course they want me at that god forsaken place."
"Well I can't say it's all that bad." Blaise said "I mean we have an incredible potions professor."
The rest of them nodded their heads.
"But that old git they call a headmaster is rather annoying." Draco replied
"Yes," Pansy said "But what would you expect?"
"Nothing, absolutely nothing." Draco said
"You chaps better get on your way." Said a voice behind Celeste
She knew who it was right away "Sit down for a bit Stacey." She said to her brother
"Can't .I've got to get these lads and get in the other room with the men.They want to discuss bisuness." He told her
Celeste sighed and looked at Pansy and Blaise who were to be her only company for the next hour or so.Unless she decided to talk to the wives and mothers. Celeste looked at the women then back at Pansy and Blaise who were now deeply in a conversation with each other about how cute Stacey was. It annoyed Celeste to no end.The boys had already left, so now her only hope for conversation were these two. Sighing she got up and walked to the door.Making sure no one was following her she grabbed her cloak and went to find a bathroom. Soon she found the one she was looking for.The one hardly anyone used anymore.Pulling out a towel she sat down beside the tub.and pulled out a knife from her cloak pocket. She flicked it open.She stared at the blade for a moment then she slid it over the skin of her wrist. Immediately the red liquid started to drip of her arm and on to the towel that was postioned below it. This was her only escape from reality.All the pain she suffered in everyday life. Her memories and the knowledge of what lay ahead drove her to do this.
She stayed there for half an hour trying to blank her mind.
"You'll have to go back out there soon' She told herself 'Just a little bit longer.Just once more.' She pleaded with herself 'They won't notice if yoru gone just for a little bit longer.'
She sighed and pulled herself off the floor.She made sure she looked alright then walked back out of the room.She closed the door and then turned around.Coming face to face with Lucius Malfroy.
"Why Celeste what are you doing up here?" He asked her his cold grey eyes taking in the cloak draped over her arm and the cut on her arm.
"Uh, I, um, I went outside for some fresh air and I tripped and got my dress all muddy.So I came up here to clean myself up." She said blushing
"I see." He said clearly not buying what she said but not saying anything to Celeste's great relief "Well you had better get back to the ballroom with everybody."
"Yes sir." Celeste said then started to walk away but he put a hand on her shoulder.She shivered. Lucius had always given her the creeps
"Better not harm yourself anymore." He said
"I didn't know you cared." She said with a hint of sarcasm in her voice
He smirked at her as she walked away.
'To bad she's not a miserable mudblood.' He thought to himself 'I could have some fun with that one.'
He followed her down the hall, down the stairs, and into the ballroom.He saw her go imidiatly over to Vincent Goyle.
Vincent noticed her wrist and he looked at her with a mean expression "I thought you said you would stop." He whispered
"It's not that easy." She told him
"Your still hung up over Bryan aren't you?" He asked her quietly
she nodded.She was thankful she atleast had one true friend other than her brother. Vincent didn't care for muggles, but he didn't have anything against them either. Besides Stacey he was the only one she really talked to. The only one who really understood how she felt.
"I'm sorry that it had to be like that." He said to her
She sighed "So am I."
Two hours later it was time for everyone to leave.Celeste was greatful to be going home.She was tired and getting rather annoyed at the mindless chatter that Pansy had benn spouting.
As soon as she got home she trudged up to her room.Shedding her clothes and jewelery she climbed into the bath that she had fixed for herself.She relaxed as the steamy water enveloped her tired aching muscles.she washed herself and her hair then got up out of the tub.She wrapped herself in a fluffy towel and walked into her room.She sighed and flopped down on her bed , the towel still clutched around her. Slowley she got up and dried herself. After pulling on panties and a nightgown. She pulled back her duvet and climbed in bed praying that she wouldn't have another torturous dream tonight.
