When Harry and Sandy had finished eating, the trio made their way back to the house. Sandy went upstairs to put her coat in her room. An owl was perched atop Sandy's bedpost holding a small letter in his beak. She laid her coat on the bed, recognizing the owl as Draco's. "Hi Onyx," she said as she petted him lightly on the head. He dropped the note in her hand and nipped it affectionately before flying out the window.
Sandy,
I assume Sirius has already told you about why I left. He completely got the wrong idea. You fell asleep on the couch after reading your book. I bent down to give you kiss like we always do, and he had walked in right when I did so. Harry probably didn't tell him we were best friends and he thought I was taking advantage of you. You know that I would never do that. I know how happy you are with Harry, and I would never do anything to jeopardize your relationship. Please let Sirius know the truth, and if it isn't too much trouble for you, ask if I may come back to stay.
Hugs and Kisses, Draco
Sandy was completely shocked. Sirius had not mentioned a word to her about any of it. Angrily, she stormed downstairs. "Sirius Black!" Sandy yelled when she reached the living room. He walked in from the kitchen, a startled look on his face. "Would you mind telling me why you neglected to mention that you threw my best friend out?" She didn't bother to lower her voice. Harry had walked in, wondering what the commotion was about.
Draco woke up startled. He tried to remember where he was as he looked around slow. After a few minutes it dawned on him that he was in his parent's room at Malfoy Manor. Draco sat up slowly, stretching as he did. "I need to talk to Sandy. I can't just stay here alone." He got up and started towards the door. Just as he was about to leave the room, something sparkling in the far corner caught his eye. Draco hurried to the corner, curious as to what it was. He gasped in shock at the sight of his father's ring. It was a beautiful signet ring. Two twin dragons wrapped around a sharp knife were set in gold upon a blazing emerald. The ring sparkled in the faint light as Draco picked it up for a closer inspection.
Sirius was speechless as Sandy turned to Harry. "I'm assuming you knew about this?" She asked, the anger now growing minute by minute. He nodded his head shamefully. "I can't believe you would lie to me. Now I know where all these questions are coming from. Harry this really hurts you know! You are basically saying you can't trust me!" Harry lifted his head with shock, "I don't even believe you would say that! Well I can't trust Draco, but I know that! That's twice now that he's kissed you while we were engaged! I don't want to even think about when we weren't together!" Harry knew that was one thing he shouldn't have said. "Oh Merlin, Sandy I didn't mean that. I'm so-" "Save it! If you really loved me you wouldn't have even thought about saying that!" She burst into tears and ran upstairs followed closely by him and Sirius. She slammed the door so hard that it broke of the hinges.
Draco was surprised to find that, even though the room was freezing cold, the ring was pleasantly warm. He turned it over looking at the inscription he knew was on the back. He gasped yet again to find that it wasn't what he had expected. Instead of the family motto, a message to none other then himself was now inscribed in its place.
Draco,
Take this ring and keep it safe. One day it will be of great use to you. Until then be careful.
Lucius
Draco almost dropped the ring as he read what his father had had written there. "What is he talking about? What did he know that I don't?" Draco pocketed the ring deciding he would try and figure it out later.
Harry silently walked in finding her lying across their bed crying rivers. "Sandy, I swear on my life I didn't mean it." She looked at him with a stained, angry face. "My whole life all I heard was how great Harry Potter was. Every night before I went to sleep all I thought about was you. I never thought that one day I would wear a ring that symbolized the love between us, but it happened. When it did, I thought nothing could break us apart until I saw you kissing Alex so you have no damn right to say what you did. I love Draco more than anything, but as a best friend. You know that we kiss as friends all the time. There is nothing, and I mean nothing that I love more than you." As she said this, Sandy advanced on Harry and now had him pinned to the wall. "I don't want to see you right now. Please leave," she added turning away from him. "No. We need to talk about this." "No we don't. Harry, I-" Sirius cut in before Sandy said something she would regret. "Sandra, this whole thing is my fault. I took it the wrong way. I had no idea you two were close friends. You really shouldn't be fighting." She threw her hands in the air. "You think I'm going to forgive him for saying what he did? I think not. He basically called his own fiancé a whore using decorous language! I want to be alone for now. I need to think about what's going on by myself. I'm sorry." She kissed Harry on the cheek before returning to the bed.
