Again, I would like to thank all my reviewers. I might not update for a while because I am going to Italy for three weeks and after chapter 12, I have nothing written. Thanks for the reviews.
Chapter eight
Dear Professor Snape,
Your niece is incredible stubborn! Oh yea please do not hex me for saying that because it is the truth. Yes, I do happen to know what the truth is, even though I do not use it. I swear if I did not know any better, I would say that Princess just claims to hate me because she does not want anything to change between us.
As for the past, she is partially to blame as well. What is that muggle saying? "It takes two to tango," right? Ok, well you make a good point, about going from being teased to being wanted by the same person. However, I never said I wanted her. Her and her blue eyes, long shinny black hair, porcelain skin, rose colored lips, perfectly proportioned body; nope I never said I wanted her. I have the ability, you will see, to dislike someone and still think that they are adorable. I can give examples too, like Pansy… er, no, not her….Granger…no, no definitely not her…well I cannot think properly right now but there are examples.
Now, I was not flirting with that muggle. Even if I was, why should I have to stop just because princess does not like it? After all, I am I am not hers yet, we are not together. She just happens to be my future wife. Why should I have to disrupt my habits to give her the perfect life? Princess needs to realize that life is not always so peachy.
Good news! I did not break her heart when I got her a Christmas gift. You should have seen her face, it was priceless. She tried to hide it but she is not a Malfoy, yet, she tried very hard to mask the anger she had when she first opened the gift. I however, was able to see right through her façade but than her anger turned into amazement when she saw that the book was not her gift but the necklace inside the book was. She loved it, I swear for a moment I thought she would get up and kiss me but alas, she did not. I must say buying someone jewelry is not an easy task. No, you have figure out what type of stone to get, they type of cut, the karat size, the type of setting, and it really is very challenging work.
Her gift to me was simple. A journal, a hand designed black leather journal with a dragon on the front. It was a nice gift, because now I can keep a record of the day's events somewhere. I did need a new one too; my old journal is rather full. Amazing how well she knows me.
Well I believe that is all, I shall see you when the holiday is over, Draco Malfoy
Professor Snape read Draco's letter and thought to himself 'amazing how quickly they fall in love.'
Dear Princess,
Now, how many times must we go through this? Please stop calling me Uncle Sevie!
I must say your refusal to admit your real feelings for Draco, is very amusing. Look back on the past few days, and tell me do you not enjoy is company? Yes, you are right when you say he is not amazing, no, you just happen to understand his personality very well and seem to like describing him perfectly.
I also happen to understand what ogling is. I just do not want to hear so much detail about my prized student ogling my beloved niece. Now, you have also proven that you really had no good reason to slap Draco. The point of disliking each other is not a good reason because deep down I do not believe that you dislike him, nor do I believe he dislikes you. Maybe he is in love with you, and that is why he cannot stop staring at you?
Glad to hear that the gift giving went well. Are you sure he does not like you? Most people do not buy diamonds for just any girl. Are you positive, you did not fall in love with him? After all you said it yourself, "if he was a likable guy I would have fallen in love," maybe you just do not want to admit to him or to yourself that you care.
Now, take care and enjoy the rest of your holiday with Draco. Uncle Severus
Natasha read her Uncle's letter and thought, 'well of course I fell in love with him, uncle! Who would not? After all, he is rather charming once you get past the arrogant prat exterior. Oh what to do? I should write to Uncle Severus and explain these annoying feelings I have for Draco.'
As Natasha, wrote to her Uncle, down the hall Draco was reading Professor Snape's response to his earlier letter.
Dear Draco,
Kindly, stop saying that my niece is stubborn. I will not hex you for making that statement before; however, if I hear you say it again, it would be wise not to sleep unless one eye is open. Does, princess claim to hate you? Are you doing the same thing? Maybe you should talk this out with her, and not her Uncle. I believe though, that you two have fallen for each other, after all it was the same with your parents. Narcissa, was always challenging Lucius, everything he said and did. She always wanted to best him. Somewhere along the way, they fell in love, and their love is still there. I think it is the same for you and Natasha.
Now I never said the past was not partially princess' fault. I was just bringing up your role; in shall we call unpleasant times. Therefore, you are somewhat responsible for past actions as well. Now, of course you do not want princess. However, your ability to produce a very life like image of her leads me to wonder. Sure, you can dislike a person and think at the same time that they are adorable. Honestly, your large list of examples proves it.
Draco, I am not going to tell you why you should not flirt with other girls around Natasha. I say that because the words 'I am engaged to Natasha' should be flashing in your head right about now. Thus, making you realize that the only girl you should be flirting with is Natasha. Natasha is fully aware that life is not peachy, but we in comes to love life is supposed to be less complicated. I advise you to think about that.
Glad to hear you did not break her heart, although, if you did I would personally kill you. On to more pleasant thoughts though. You are glad she loved the gift. That is very interesting. Although, I am confused, I thought Malfoy's never cared if other people liked something a Malfoy gave them. Isn't that true? Did you want princess to kiss you? If you did, well I believe you know what I am going to say.
Did I read correctly? A Malfoy amazed at something. Merlin I did! What is the wizarding world coming too? Maybe I should pair you with princess in potions. Just of course to see what exactly about princess amazes you. Should be entertaining.
Professor Snape
Draco read the letter and with his usual sarcasm he thought 'well gee, Professor, I did not realize that I fell in love with my princess. Stupid Professor, with his stupid comments. Hmm I like the sound of my princess. Oh, Merlin, did he say he was going to pair us together is potions? Wonderful he did, now I'll probably get killed during class because I really cannot stop staring at her.'
The next chapter happens to be very short. It is just one letter, and well I see no other point in adding anything to it.
