Chapter Thirteen - I Wished For You
Thud. Drucial cursed under her breath as her trunk fell onto her foot... again. She wandered down the stairs, leaving her trunk at the top and stormed into the living room. She glared at Severus who seemed to read her mind and levitated it down the stairs and out to the car. She mock smiled and walked out after it.
"She's going to be a Slytherin, I can taste it." Severus said teasingly to Draco, who smiled a little. He was still lost in the thought of Harry never finding out what house his daughter would end up in, but all things considered he was in a fairly good mood.
"No... she hasn't got the grace to be a Slytherin. She's got way to much of her dad in her to even come close. If she had been a twin which I thank god she wasn't then she would be the counterpart of a brand new Fred and George!" he smiled.
"Don't talk to me about Weasley's. There are more of them now you know!" Severus said, shaking his head. The upcoming year at Hogwarts was going to be a living hell.
"What have you got this time? Boy? Girl? Both? More?!" Draco questioned, his spirits raised at the thought of his foster father's personal nightmares coming true.
"Ron's !twin! daughters: Kelly and Miranda. Fred's son: Angelo. Molly and Auther's !eighth! child: Tanya and Percey's brat, I forget it's name. Why did they all have to be born so close together?! Why me?! They're going to drive me mad!"
/If I had to loose a mile, if I had to touch a feeling/
/I would loose my soul, the way I do/
"I don't wanna go to school." Drucial pouted to Severus as they pulled up at London train station. "I don't wanna be questioned, and prodded and poked and asked if the scar is hereditary."
Severus shook his head, feeling a little sorry for her. Draco looked over from the front passenger seat. "If they ask you that tell them that it isn't, but you have one just like it tattooed on your ass." Drucial giggled as they got out of the car, fell through the station wall and walked over to the train. "Oh look Severus!" Draco said with a delighted smile. "Look at all the Weasley's together!"
Severus gave Draco a playful slap around the head and apperated before he could be dragged into a reunion. Draco lead Drucial over to the group of Weasley's, where there was much hugging... too much for Drucial's liking. She pulled away from everyone and stood a little to the side of them. "Sickening, isn't it."
Drucial looked round to see a boy with dark hair and blue eyes staring at her. "Yeah, and yet I get it every time I walk into a room." She put on a mock voice and waved her hands around. "'Oh wow, you're Harry potter's daughter! Is it true you have two dad's? I wanna be your best friend!'"
The other boy smirked. "Poor thing." He said and held out a hand to her. "The names Angelo, people call me Angel. Nice to meet you daughter of Harry Potter."
Drucial bit her bottom lip and smiled, taking his hand. He pulled her hand forward and kissed it. Life was about to get interesting. "Nice to meet you Angel. I'm Drucial Potter-Malfoy." She said, in a soft girly voice that she didn't even know she possessed.
/Would you like to hear my voice, sprinkled with emotion/
/Invented at your birth/
He picked up her trunk and hauled into onto the train for her. She ran over and gave her father a kiss on the cheek. Draco motioned toward Angelo. "Got an admirer already?" he said with a cheeky smile. Drucial gave him a playful punch in the arm.
"Look after yourself while I'm gone. I'll see you both at Christmas!" she said over her shoulder as she walked over to where Angelo was waiting. Draco smiled and waved as the train left the station. 'Wait... I'm having a realization here...' Draco thought to himself. "Both?"
"What's confusing you?" Angelo asked at they settled into a compartment by themselves. Drucial looked confused at his sudden statement. "You look lost." He said simply.
"My dad died yesterday, I'm still kinda getting over it." She said softly, amazed at how easy it was to talk to Angelo. Angelo was about to say something when a rather loud girl appeared in the doorway.
"ANGELO!" she shrieked before pulling him into a hug.
"Hi Aunt Tanya." Angelo mumbled, obviously not interested in her company. "I suppose we will be expecting the rest along shortly." No sooner had he finished saying it than three others fell into the compartment. Two girls and a boy.
"Whose this little !darling! you have cooped up in here huh Angelo?" Tanya said, glancing over at Drucial. Drucial knew she was going to hate her already, she couldn't stand the way that she had elongated the word 'darling'.
"Everyone, this is Drucial. Drucial, that's my aunt Tanya, and my cousins, Kelly, Miranda and Archimedes." He said, pointing from person to person. She said very little after that, not wanting to share too much with such a loud family. It was going to be a very long year.
/I can't see, the end of me, my whole expanse, I can not see/
/I formulate infinity, and store it deep inside of me/
