A/N: Enjoy!

Draco's summer had not been enjoyable…at all. First of all, his father had been sent to Azkaban prison causing his mother to be enraged at Draco for no apparent reason. His first encounter of the summer and last ever had definitely been the worst.

Flashback

It all started when his mother hadn't picked him up at King's Cross resulting in him walking to Malfoy Mansion, which had taken about an hour. When he had walked through the door he had been met by screaming.

"DRACO, YOU'RE SUCH AN ASSHOLE!" Narcissa had screamed, while magicking her long blondish white hair into a long ponytail (she was going to do something).

"IT'S NOT MY FAULT THAT I'M LEFT WITH NOTHING! IT'S YOUR FAULT! YOUR FAULT THEY'RE TAKING MY HOUSE AWAY! YOUR FAULT THEY'RE TAKING AWAY ALL THE MONEY! BUT YOU PROBABLY DON'T CARE BECAUSE YOU GET ALL THAT MONEY AND THE HOUSE WHILE I AM LEFT WITH ABSOLUTELY NOTHING EXCEPT A CELL IN AZKABAN!" she screamed again.

"You see Draco, they checked our house and my arm and when they found the Dark Mark oh I was sentenced right away a life-time trip to Azkaban, no trial, thanks to Lucius!" Narcissa said this more civilly, but still enraged.

"Would you like to know why you get it all Draco? Well because you had no Dark Mark on your arm and were free to get EVERYTHING! EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE GOING TO BE INDUCTED AS A DEATH EATER…let us see, oh yes…TODAY! AND YOU WILL PROBABLY TURN OUT TO BE A TRADER THAT OBEYS POTTER AND THE MUGGLE LOVER, DUMBLEDORE! I KNEW YOU WOULD TURN OUT THE WRONG WAY EVER SINCE I HAD HELD YOU IN MY ARMS AT AGE 18 MIGHT I ADD! YOU KNOW I WANTED TO HAVE A JOB, BUT NOOOOOOOO I HAD TO BE PREGNANT WITH YOU AND BE A HOUSEWIFE WHO TODAY LOOKS LIKE SHE'S 60, YET IS ONLY 34!" she screamed like there was no tomorrow.

"That's it, AVADA KEDAVEENIA!" she commanded.

Avada Kedaveenia was a lot like Avada Kedavra except you didn't die. You might have felt like you were going to die and wanted to die, but sadly sometimes for the victim you didn't. It's impossible to explain for anyone who has experienced it. When Death Eaters come to your home to play with you a bit, but not kill you they would most likely use Avada Kedaveenia. Some survivors who hadn't gone insane with pain (very few) had said it should be the fourth Unforgivable. Others who had been hit with Imperius beforehand had said it was 10 times worse and even more.

When everything had become a spinning mess and he didn't know what was happening or where or who he even was the pain subsided and his memory came back, but any longer it would have been gone for good.

"Narcissa Petunia Malfoy, you will now be brought to Azkaban for your life stay due to the support of Thomas Marvolo Riddle's unruly acts and you have been charged with putting the Avada Kedaveenia curse on your own son, Draco Lucius Malfoy, with death penalty by the Dementor's Kiss if guilty by trial," a ministry official announced.

"Draco Malfoy, you now have possession of Malfoy Manor, the Malfoy family account, Narcissa Petunia Malfoy's account, Lucius Peter Malfoy's account, your own of course, and any other of your mother or father's accounts. Until you are of age, 17, you can not live alone and will need a guardian. Sirius Black, the last of the Black's is now dead. The Weasley Family refuses to take you in for various reasons including they could not take care of 8 children. The Lestrange's are in Azkaban convicted of the torture and permanent incapacitation of Frank and Alice Longbottom. The only living relative you have is Nymphadora Tonks…"

"NOOOOO! DON'T HAND DRACO OVER TO THAT BLOOD TRAITOR!" Narcissa shouted, struggling with the ministry officials holding her.

"We have no choice Mrs. Malfoy…Miss Tonks will either check up on you here or take you to her home depending on her choice. Goodbye, Mr. Malfoy!" the ministry official said properly with a loud pop as all 3 officials and his mother apparated.

Present

Tonks would check up on him time to time, but most of his summer had been spent alone in the large mansion and he had been relieved when he was finally back at Hogwarts. The play had been the best thing that happened for a while.

Draco had never acted in a play, but had always found it interesting and signed his name on the sign up list without a thought. Lifting his eyes he had seen Hermione Granger looking very upset, though he could only think of one word: beautiful. All those years he had been living with closed eyes. He had now opened his eyes, first seeing only a world of black and white and then seeing the one thing that was colorful named Hermione.

Her hair was now, not busy, but was apparently straight because it was in an elegant bun with two tendrils falling in front of her face. How he longed to push one strand of hair behind her ear and kiss her, telling her everything would be all right. She didn't need makeup because she couldn't be any more beautiful. Though she was wearing a little mascara, which was now running down her face. She no longer had big, buck teeth, but perfect white ones. And she…well let's just say Hermione wasn't the little girl she use to be.

"Malfoy! You're supposed to be bringing these first years to the dungeons! Come on!" beckoned Eddie Carmichael, the new head boy, snapping Draco back to reality.

"Sorry, Ed! I'll get to it!" answered Draco.

Draco walked over to the group of Slytherin first years.

"Mr. Malfoy, it is an honor to meet you!" one Slytherin boy said.

"Pansy has told me sooooooo much about you!" cooed a Slytherin girl who looked exactly like…

"Parkinson! Now…there is two Parkinsons! Oh, shit, this sucks!" yelled Draco, calming down he said ,"No offence to you or anything."

"None taken, I hate her, too! It's just well…I wanted to make a good impression and since Pansy said how much you love her, I thought talking about her would make a good impression, but I'm guessing not," explained Pansy's sister, "The name's Lily by the way…Lily Melody Parkinson."

"Nice to meet you….now the first rule, is do not call me Mr. Malfoy, I am only called that by the professors, the Gryffindorks, and well that's my father's name, I'm Draco," ordered Draco.

"Speaking of the Gryffindorks…"

"RON IF YOU DON'T GET OVER HERE RIGHT THIS INSTANT I'LL…"

Draco snuck up behind her and drawled, "Now, now Granger lets watch our tongue in front of the new Gryffindorks."

"Yeah, Granger!" chirped the first year Slytherins, as all with Draco walked away to the entrance to the dungeons.

"Very, very good, now let me show you to the common room," Draco announced.

With this the Slytherins followed Draco down the long stone corridor.
