Hi guys! Sorry this is going up a little late, but when I told you I was updating on Sunday, I forgot it was Mother's Day. So I was out of town most of the day. As for the next chapter, hopefully it will be up on Wednesday. I had the next two written but due to a technical glitch I've lost them. If the next chapter isn't up on Wednesday, it'll be up on next Sunday.
DivaLuna, Faith5321, Lolly6, moonbunny77, Ezmerelda, Kandice, buffy13-buffyspike4eva, thank you guys for all of your reviews!
Kyra2, yeah, Malfoy has lots of unpleasantness being thrown his way. You'll find out what I mean in this chapter.
harmoni9, hopefully you get to read this before you have to leave us!
A/N: Yes, I know they are kind of mellowing out. But there are only so many things for two characters to argue about before things start getting redundant and boring. I'm not saying that they are done arguing, but they will start seeing the other side of the argument. For example, Dawn understanding why he doesn't want to be a watcher. There are also other reasons for Draco's dislike of family breakups, but that won't get explained for at least another chapter.

Summers,
I swear that old man is out to get me. I just know he has come up with this idea just to irritate me. I think he's just winging this whole credit requirement.
Remember that this wasn't my idea, nor do I really want to participate. Writing to you has been torture enough, but now I have to endure a new brand of torture. Dumbledore wants me to ask if I can spend some time with you. In L.A. In the muggle world.
You don't have to say yes. Your answer will not affect my grade one way or another. I was just required to ask.

Malfoy,
I checked with the others and they said that it was fine. You are free to come visit us and experience muggle life. This should be a real eye opener for you.
We just had a couple of questions. When and how are you getting here? And is there anything specific we're supposed to show you or have you do?
Really, I think this idea is a good one. There are way more muggles than wizards and you never know when you might have to blend in with them. Honestly, I would think that someone of your intelligence would jump at the chance to learn more instead of allowing yourself to stay inside your neat and orderly little box.
Dawn
Summers,
Somehow I knew you would agree to this insanity. It's not too late for you to back out of this. Are you sure there's not an impending apocalypse that would prevent my coming?
Draco
Malfoy,
No apocalypse. Things are quiet on the western front. We're excited about you coming out here.
Dawn
Summers,
I can see there's no way to talk you out of this. I'll be there on December 20th and I'll portkey directly into your lobby at precisely 12:00pm.
Dumbledore said that I'm just supposed to experience muggle life, nothing specific. I guess I'm at your mercy in that area.
Draco
Malfoy,
Trust me, ferret-face. I'll make sure that you'll have fun while you're here. I really want you to understand what muggle life is like.
Angel contacted Dumbledore and you're receiving special permission to use magic outside of Hogwarts because of our lifestyle. But you're only allowed to use defensive spells and a few offensive ones.
And just to warn you, there are a lot of demons at Wolfram and Hart. Most are fairly nice. But a good rule of thumb is don't bother them unless they attack you.
See you in little over a week!
Dawn
