Chapter 3- Meeting people.
Ginny trudged up the stairs to the Malfoy Manor, dragging her extremely old duffel bag behind her. She paused at the top of the stairs, and then turned to wave goodbye to her parents, who were sitting in a beautiful new car the ministry had given them. Her parents waved back, then the car flew away.
'Damn Malfoy and damn Mom.' Ginny grumbled.
She ran a hand through her curls, and took a deep breath, she reached up to ring the bell, but the door had already opened.
'May I help you?' A woman asked. She was wearing a black silk robe, with a white apron over it. Her straight brown hair was held back with small white clips.
'Mrs Malfoy?' Ginny sighed with relief. At least she looks normal. Now I can see how my mom can be friends with a Malfoy, Ginny thought.
'Hell no!' The woman laughed. 'I'm just a maid.'
Ginny blushed furiously. 'I'm so sorry! I, I-
'Don't worry about it. Actually I'm very flattered you compared me to the Mistress.' The women told her. 'Why don't you come in?'
Ginny took a small, uneasy step into the house. Ginny thought, castle more like it.
She turned to the maid. 'My name's Ginny Weasley, and I'm supposed to stay here for the holidays.'
'Ah, yes.' The maid nodded. 'Master Malfoy told me you would be here. Please follow me, you can leave your bag here if you like.'
Ginny smiled gratefully and followed the maid, examining the house as they walked.
The walls were painted a gorgeous cream colour, and there were portraits, vases, paintings, mirrors and other beautiful artefacts all over the house.
Ginny was so taken away by the house that she slammed into the maid, who had stopped abruptly.
'The sunroom is just there,' the maid said, pointing to a nearby door with one hand. 'Mrs Malfoy is there now.'
'Thank you so much,' Ginny said, truthfully. 'I guess I should go in, huh?'
'That is your choice, Miss Weasley. If I may take your leave? I must start to prepare dinner.' The maid trailed off, looking somewhat preoccupied.
Ginny felt bad for holding her up. 'I'm so sorry, of course you can go. Thanks for your help.'
The maid dismissed the thought with her hand, as she walked quickly out of the room. 'Glad to be of service.'
Ginny waited for a few minutes before she softly knock on the door leading to the sunroom.
'It's open.' A feminine voice called.
Ginny tentatively opened the door, and stepped inside.
'Virginia!' The voice called. Ginny spun around. A stunning lady, who could easily have been mistaken for a muggle supermodel, was sitting in a chair against the wall.
'Virginia, Virginia darling, I did not know you had arrived! Has your mother left?' The woman inquired.
Ginny gulped. Mrs Malfoy, she thought. She was dressed in a fine red robe, with beautiful silver designs on it. Her long wavy blonde hair was tightly tied into a low, tight bun, and she was wearing diamond earrings and a huge diamond necklace.
'Yes, Maam. Please, just call me Ginny.'
'Of course,' Mrs Malfoy said, laughing. 'That's what your mother always calls you.'
Ginny didn't know what to say, so she just let Mrs Malfoy speak.
'You're very polite,' she said fondly. 'And I'll call you Ginny if you call me Narcissa.'
Ginny felt intimidated by this woman in front of her. She was tall, and powerful. Narcissa seemed to have noticed this too.
'Oh, Ginny! Please don't be afraid of me! I feel like I know you so well, because your mother is always telling me about you. Look, think of me as your auntie, alright?'
At this, Ginny smiled. 'All right.Aunt Narcissa.' Narcissa burst out laughing and she seemed to radiate beauty as she laughed. After a while Ginny started laughing too, and they couldn't seem to stop.

Draco was walking towards his study when he heard his mothers voice coming from the sunroom. Curious, he stopped, and put his ear next to the door.
'Actually, we have been best friends since we were in our 5th year at Hogwarts.'
Draco raised an eyebrow. How was she talking about?
'Really?' Came a younger girl's voice.
'Oh, yes. Believe it or not, I was a Gryffindor, along with your mother.'
Draco was stunned. His mother wasn't a Slytherin? Suddenly, he became angry.
Who is this she's talking to? She didn't tell /me/ that she was a Gryffindor, he thought jealously.
The younger girl was in awe too, 'Wow! I thought all Malfoys were in Slytherin! Actually, now that I think about it, you're way too nice to have been a Slytherin.'
Draco seethed. Now she's trying to cuddle up to my mother! I wonder what she wants; he thought when he heard his mother's melodious laughter.
'You have to remember, Darling, that I wasn't born a Malfoy, I married into the Malfoy line.'
'Yeah, sure, but still.I can't believe-
'Lucius would marry a Gryffindor?' His mother finished.
'Well, yes, but no, I mean.'
What a confused little idiot, Draco thought.
'I still don't know why.' His mother sighed.
Draco's curiosity was getting the better of him, so he opened the door, ready to insult whoever the girl was, when he saw-
'Gi-Weasley? He said disbelievingly.
End of chapter.
Hey guys!
That's the longest chapter I've written! Ok, I guess that's not saying much since I only wrote three chapters. Anyway.
Before I write out my messages, I gotta say, this morning when I was checking my email, I saw your reviews, and I was so happy, that I cleaned my room.WILLINGLY. This is a huge thing, because I don't think I've actually cleaned my room properly in 7 years.
So, Thanks to.
HPF88: You are so unbelievably sweet! I wish everyone in the world were like you! Thanks sooooo much for reading my story, and thanks even more for reviewing. Keep smiling!
Regina: Thank you very, very much. The best part of your review was the Caps Lock . I feel very honoured to get such nice reviews. Thanks again. Have a nice day!
Toriisen: Thanks a lot for reviewing. Actually, I hadn't thought about explaining their friendship, then I read your review, and realised that it would probably be a good idea. So, thanks very much for that. I'm a huge Simpsons fan, actually. I thought you might have been too, from the 'hey hey hey'. My friend always says that because she has in insane obsession with Krusty.
SamiJo: Aha! I haven't really said /why/ they were friends, have I? Maybe I will. Thanks very much for reading and reviewing. Your review was very good.
Thanks to everyone who read my story.if you do read it, please review, it'll make a silly little teenage girl's day.
If you have any ideas for future chapters, I'd love to hear them.
That's all for now.so long, amigos.
Love, Angel of Hearts.
