No Matter What Happens

It was nearing the time for Hogwarts students returning for Christmas to be boarding the carriages. Elizabeth Christine Malfoy was one of them. She walked through the corridors of Hogwarts, her books and such levitating behind her. She caught sight of Jonathan looking at her and she smiled a little bit. He caught the smile and proceeded walking down the hallway again. "Ugh! Watch it you filthy little-!" he turned his head. She was screaming at a fellow 6th year Hufflepuff walking down the halls. Jonathan heard a lame apology and Elizabeth rudely shoving Amanda Porter into the wall. She continued walking down the hall, brushing back her smooth blonde hair. He knew that outside she was a mean cold-hearted just-an-average Slytherin girl but when you really got to know her she wasn't as cold, in fact...she was nice.

Hogwarts students loaded the carriages to take them home. Elizabeth and Jonathan were in one of them, complaining loudly for others to hear and believe. As soon as the carriages started to move they were quiet and started talking. It was Elizabeth who started, "I think..." she trailed off.

"What? What do you think?" he said placing his hand on hers.

She gazed at him, from his blondish hair (It was kind of blonde turning red if you know what I mean) to his blue eyes. "We should tell our parents, you know..."

"What?" he gasped in utter shock, "Elizabeth we can't, I mean I reckon my da' to be okay with this but well, you know yours. Besides he expects you married off to Seth Zambini, don't he?"

"Seth is really cute you know," she said jokingly, referring to the blonde haired, blue eyed, athletic Slytherin boy who's parents had made a betrothal to Draco and Pansy.

"Oh cut it out, but really you can't."

"We have to." She demanded, her blue eyes glittering.

He knew it. When Elizabeth wanted, she got. Spoiled brat, he secretly thought. "Alright, I suppose we will," he bit his lip. "Promise to owl me after your parents answer you."

"I will if you do."

"Promise."

They held hands and stared out of the carriages as they pulled slowly into the first stop.

First, the carriage stopped at the Weasly's and snickers from every house could be heard as he dismounted the carriage and into the house that his parents had also lived in. When it stopped at the Malfoy manor, oohs and aahs could be heard while she stepped out and bit her lip, waiting to see her parents reaction. Oh well, she thought as she stepped into the house, it can either go right, or it could go wrong. Guess which one took up her conscience more.
