CHAPTER 1
The Arrange Marriage / WHAT?!?
"Don't forget to owl me, try coming over to visit sometime, don't forget to owl me, I'll try coming over to visit you and ." Hermione Granger trailed off when Draco Malfoy, her boyfriend of one year and a few months placed a long masculine finger over her pursed lips.
"I won't forget to owl, good God Mione just give me my kiss and my hug and get your silly pretty arse up that train and go on home. I'm starting to miss you already." he whispered sadly as he gathered her tiny curvy body into his arms. She sighed and wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her body against him. He let go of her and brushed her dark brown curls away from her face and smiled at her. "I love you." he whispered as his gray eyes twinkled with happiness. She smiled and looked up at him as he bent down to kiss her. He closed his eyes and caught her lips for a long, slow, sweet kiss. After what seemed to be forever they parted lips and took a deep breath and hugged him one last time.
"Gosh, I feel like I won't be seeing you for a long time." she whispered onto his neck. He smiled and stroked her hair.
"You'll see me. I'll come by next week okay." he said assuring her. Then the train hooted it's departure and she hugged him and gave him a quick peck on the lips, " I love you and I can't wait to see you." she said excitedly and climbed onto the train.
He stood there and waited for the train to leave then he heard a light tapping sound. He turned and saw Hermione staring at him from the glass, she smiled as she kissed the tips of her fingers and placed it on the glass. He smiled and blew her a kiss too. Then the train started to drift away and Hermione was on her way back to the muggle world. He gathered his luggage, made his way through the crowd and climbed into the black carriage where his father awaited him with news.
~*~*~*~
"What?!?" Draco shrieked.
"Yes. Ever since you were young we arranged it. That's why I told you to break it off with Miss Granger last year ." his father explained, "I did not do that for our family name. I did it because we made this arrangement years ago. we, your mother and I couldn't back out of it.." he stammered, "You'll be meeting her tonight please don't ruin this evening" he pleaded. It was so unlikely of his father to act this way.
After a few more minutes he finally gave up and said, "I will do it for both of you." he sighed and stared out the window, thinking about Hermione.
~*~*~*~
After what seemed like hours they finally arrived at a huge shiny silver gate entwined with white roses, Caveat Garden. The gate opened and they rode in. Draco stared in awe at his surroundings. There stood before him was a wide beautiful old Victorian house that had big white rose bushes on each side. On the farther right there was a small gate that had green vines wrapped around neatly as if it had been wrapped by hand. He gasped as a tall beautiful slender white horse galloped around the grassy field that lay right in front of the Victorian house. The carriage came to a stop and Draco and his father climbed out.
Together they walked towards the big black doors that had the name Caveat engraved in white. Draco looked at his father who walked beside him and stared straight ahead. "Father is she pretty?" he asked.
"Would it matter?" his father asked staring straight ahead.
"Well, no. I think but I don't want to get stuck with someone that looks like Pansy." He whispered. For what seemed like an eternity of quietness his father laughed, not a wholehearted laugh but more of a boyish laugh.
"That pug." Lucius said with a grin then his grin faded and he looked at his son, "I haven't seen her since she was a child.. I suppose so." Then he looked ahead again.
As soon as they came to the steps of the front door, they slowly burst open and the two walked right in. The minute the stepped inside, Draco noticed how simple their lifestyle was. It was simple but elegant. He smiled. Then a voice boomed from up the winding staircase, "Mister Malfoy! I was expecting you and oh! If it isn't my son in law to be!" Draco looked up and saw a tall man with a sharp angular face and a long turned up nose.
He wasn't handsome or ugly, just in between. He stared at the man as he climbed descended the stairs, thoughts started racing through his brain, ' Oh god will she look like him? Eep.. Will she have his face? Will she have his long nose that looks like Snape's?' His father nudged him. He's mind broke lose and he held out his hand and shook the tall mans hand.
"Caitlin is just down the hall into the music room." Mr. Caveat said pointing out to a door that was closed, "She's expecting you. Just go on right in." he smiled and walked away with Lucius into a small study and the door slammed shut.
'Oh just get it over with, she might not be that bad.' He thought as he walked over to the big white door with music notes and instruments etched onto it. As soon as he reached out the door opened wide enough for him to fit in. He quietly slipped in and the door closed behind him.
He turned and saw a girl with shoulder length loopy sandy blonde hair, she sat on a white poofy (my word ) stool and a white grand piano sat in front of her. She was playing "Amazing Grace" and the music echoed through the empty white room. Her eyes stayed close, her hair was in a loose bun high on her head as loose strands fell across her face. As she pressed each chord her face would light up with happiness. He watched her play across the room and she felt his presence she stopped. She opened her eyes and they met. She smiled a sad smile and stood up. She had clear sad glassy blue eyes and she wore a white summer dress that sparkled with blue flowers. "Hi.. My father told me about you." She said in a clear glasslike tone.
He smiled, "I just found out about you now." She looked at him and smiled. Then there was an awkward silence.
"Please sit." she said with a wave of her hand two white chairs and a table appeared. He looked at her she was only how old and she could do magic with out a wand. They sat and had another minute of awkward silence when he decided to ask about her.
"So.. Since you know we are going to do the whole arrangement," he sighed, "I guess we should get to know each other.." he said.
She nodded.
"I just want you to be comfortable with me."
Another nod.
"So how old are you?"
"Sixteen."
"Sixteen?!?" he spluttered.
"Why? You're just eighteen right?" she asked
"Uh. yeah," he sighed, "but aren't you too young?"
"I may be young by age but mentally. I'm not." She said pointedly.
"So what do you hate?" he thought as he pulled that question out of his head.
She wrinkled her cute little up turned nose and they began to go on about their irksome and they laughed at some of the lame ones that Kate gave and the funny ones that Draco gave.
~*~*~*~
"I haven't seen your mother yet." Draco said, "Where is she?"
"She's gone. she died when I was ten." Kate whispered as her sad blue eyes made contact with his, "She died in Dragon bend, we were having lunch, it was my birthday."
^^^^^
Angelica sat across her daughter who was coloring her notebook. She smiled fondly and called the waiter to ask for their bill. She had pale yellow blonde hair and a button nose and bright blue eyes. The waiter came handing her the bill. As soon as she paid for it she gathered her daughter's stuff and packed them neatly in her bag. She handed her child her hand and the little ten-year-old grabbed her hand and rushed her out the restaurant and headed across the street. It was Tadia Toad's toy town. Little Kate ran through the store and there was a silver necklace with a small unicorn with wings as a pendant that caught her eye. She had been fond of horses since Angelica could remember. She paid for it and clasped it around her daughter's neck. When they were about to exit the store a group of men in hoods who rode big black stallions rushed through Dragon bend killing everything and everyone in sight. Angelica couldn't run she grabbed her floo powder bag that swished out of her hand. She grabbed the remaining contents and shoved them into Little Katie's hand. Little Katie did not understand what was happening.
"Katie! Okay listen well, listen to mommy, this is magic powder to take you home all you have to do is say Caveat Garden and say it clearly okay. Tell daddy Death eaters at Dragon Bend and tell him to come quick. Mommy loves you and baby happy birthday." she whispered weakly. Little Katie threw the powder over her head and shouted Caveat Garden as loud as she could. Then there was a sudden pull of gravity at the center of her stomach. She gasped and cried out for her mother, as the world seemed to disappear under her feet. She felt her self being tossed around in air and the noise of Dragon Bend faded away. After what seemed like five minutes she finally felt herself landing. Then with a loud thump she landed in front of a very familiar black door that had the name Caveat engraved on it. The door burst open and she rushed to her father's office. The big black doors burst open and her father, who was concentrating hard on what he was writing, lifted his head and gasped at his daughters unruly sight.
"Katie? Where's your mother? What happened to you? You're a mess!" he exclaimed.
"But Daddy these big men in black and huge horses invaded the toy store!" she cried out.
Without another word Kenny, her father rushed out of the office and took a portkey. Katie watched in silence as her father disappeared. Sad and afraid she went to the place that comforted her the most, her music room.
^^^^^
"So after four hours of waiting daddy came home and mommy wasn't with him. I asked him were she was and he just went straight to his office looking all dazed and he couldn't speak for a whole month, not even to me. My guardian told me about my mother's death and I understood that she was gone and I cried my self to sleep for many nights. But I never cried in front of my father because he told me that crying makes you weak. Finally after my father's recovery I couldn't wait to begin school at Hogwarts, I had my robes and clothes made especially for that occasion. He then forbade me to go out. So I grew up locked up, all the floo powder channels were cut off, and there is an alarm system and I can't apparate with out it ringing. So I took advanced home study and I would spend my afternoons, riding Snow." She said finishing her story.
Draco stared at Kate and her voice was still clear and she wasn't crying. Most girls who talk about their mother's deaths would become all moody and bawl over it. He admired her courage. But he couldn't help asking, "Snow?"
"My horse, my mother gave it. We named her Snow because we found her when she was just a colt and it was winter." She explained.
He smiled. It was then they had to part ways and they knew they had so much to talk about. They both stood up and walked towards the office. As soon as they entered she made her way towards her father who sat behind a big brown desk. She stood behind him and put one hand on his shoulder. Draco made his way to the chair beside his father.
"Well, did you entertain him?" he asked looking up at Kate. She smiled and her father looked at Draco, "I hope you two will bear us at least one child." Draco coughed and Kate turned red, suddenly she was so interested in the floor.
"Well we had best be going. Goodbye Ken and Caitlin." He said as he gave Ken and Caitlin a courteous nod. Draco nodded just like his father and all four of them made their way out of the office and to the door.
Caitlin had her arms tucked behind her back and her father had his arms crossed over his chest. They gave one last smile to each other and the father and son made their way towards the big black carriage. The father and daughter watched the carriage as it drove out the gate and down the road.
The father turned to his daughter and gave her a questioning look. She smiled and the sparkles in her eyes began to come back to life again. He was happy for his daughter and he gave a gentle hug.
"I'm not sure daddy," she said and the sadness in her eyes began to disappear, "he's in love with someone else and I don't want to take something that isn't mine." She said taking one last look at her father she then walked to her music room and once again the sad beautiful music of the piano filled the house.
