He pressed her against the wall with his hips, his strong hands holding her bottom up as she wrapped her legs against his waist. They kissed like there was no tomorrow, no more time left for goodbyes. They held each other for as long as possible before Dray's legs gave out. He was still sucking on her neck, moving slowly from her collarbone up to the soft spot below her ear.

Mia had her hands above her head, trying to find something to hold onto. Dray was attacking her with such a fiery passion that she felt like she'd collapse if she didn't hold on. Thankfully he was holding on to her, or she would have already passed out.

When Dray hit that soft spot under her ear for the third time, Mia moaned his name. He smirked to himself, making a mental note that it was a pleasure spot for her. With a little luck he'd be able to make her moan a lot louder when they were alone.

Coming out of her stupor, Mia realized that it was almost four o'clock and her parents would be coming home any minute. She forced herself to separate from Dray and put her hands on his chest to keep him off. "I'm sorry, I have to go. If I'm not home, they'll probably kill me," she said. He sighed, running his hands through his now-tangled hair. "Alright, but if I don't see you soon, I won't be able to be held responsible for my actions," he said with a smirk. He leaned in and kissed her goodbye. "Mmmh…." she moaned into his mouth. With a final kiss she Apparated back to her house, behind the oak tree.

Mia Apparated back to her house, but was startled when she saw the sight in front of her. The back door was wide open and three of the glass windows were broken. Walking closer to her house, she thought she heard screaming. But that was impossible right? Her parents never fought with each other. Then another thought popped into Mia's brain. "Burglars?" she said to herself out loud.

Mia walked up the rickety steps and onto the old porch. She stepped closer to the door and pulled out her wand. She slipped through the door and the sight in front of her almost made her vomit. Her father was beating his wife like she were a punching bag. He had a golf club in his hand, and between hitting her with that, he would kick her, each blow landing underneath her ribcage. After one final blow with the club, Mia screamed out into the open house. She really thought that if she didn't sit down she'd pass out.

After finding her voice she asked, "Daddy? What's going on?" She tried to stand again, but was unable to stand on her legs. They were shaking as if she was in an Earthquake.

Her father turned toward her, a glare in his eye that could only mean she was next in this sick twisted series of events. She stood up, realizing she was in more danger if she was on the floor, and backed away into the backyard. She made it onto the porch before her father came out, the fresh blood from her mother wiped clean from the club, and started on her. "Mia, darling. Be a dear and come give daddy a hug," her father said, smiling something more wicked then even that of Voldemort himself.

"I'm sorry. I just realized that I left something at Nikki's. I'll just be going back to retrieve it," Mia said, hoping against everything that her father would turn around and head back into the house. He wasn't turning back, so she started to run. Heading for the oak tree, she was about fifteen feet away from it before her father threw the golf club in front of him, hitting her back so badly that she fell to the ground in an instant. She made little noise as he picked her up and carried her into the house.

When Mia came to she was surprised to see that she was tied to a chair in a room she had never seen before. She tried to look for anything that would give a clue as to where she was being held captive, but there were no surefire answers anywhere. 'If only I could reach my wand...' she thought, but soon realized that her most prized possession was missing.

The next thing she thought about was Apparation, but if someone had known enough to look for her wand, they would have most definitely but an anti-apparation jinx on the room. 'I've got to try…' was the only thing running through her mind. She closed her eyes and concentrated solely on finding Dray and being with him. As the thought completely overtook her mind, she began to dematerialize when her father burst through the room. She screamed and he ran after her but she was already gone by the time he could reach the chair. Her eyes were open but she saw nothing but black. Her chest became extremely tight and when Mia felt like she absolutely could not hold her breath any longer, she felt light hitting her eyes and she appeared in another strange room.

However, this room was different from the room she had just left. She knew that Dray had to be around somewhere. The walls were covered in an emerald green and there were books everywhere. She actually was surprised that he had this many books. The living room reminded her of a library.

She continued to look for her boyfriend in this empty apartment, but found no sign of him. She did, however, find his owl, so she scratched a note on a scrap piece of paper and gave it to Rogue to find its' master. As Rogue flew out of the room, Mia made herself comfortable in front of a huge stack of books. No sooner had she opened the book but there was a swirl of a cloak and Dray was at her side in an instant.

"What's wrong?" he said as he pulled her close. She just stood there with her head on his chest and tried not to cry. That didn't seem to work too well, because in an instant she was in a state of tears. "Shh.. Mia, tell me what's wrong. We'll figure it out, I promise," Dray said as he brushed his hand through her hair.

"I'm sorry." She breathed out, "I didn't know where to go where he wouldn't find me." She continued to cry for a moment but finally pulled herself together enough so that she could explain what was going on.

Dray pulled her to the floor and sat with her on his lap, facing each other for what was to be a long story.

"Well," she started, "my parents are, or were, oh I don't know. I've grown up believing that my parents were Muggles. They always cared for each other but they never really had time for me. When I was 11 I got my letter from Hogwarts and thought that I would finally escape. I became the know-it-all because I didn't really know how to make friends. My best friend was, don't laugh now, Hogwarts: A History. After a few years I became known as one third of the Golden Trio, but that's not really who I am, you know? I met Nikki in the summer of fourth year. She made me what I am today. The book worm act was just that, an act. Anyway… my parents hate me."

Mia wiped a tear from her eye. It was really hard to deal with.

"Needless to say that I just kept to myself, why give my parents an extra reason to hate me, ya know? So I moved into my new room that Tonks and I created. I came home today after I left you and I saw that the backdoor was open and there was glass everywhere. I went in to see what was going on and witnessed my dad beating my mom with a golf club. It was terrible. Then he started on me so I ran out the backdoor and had almost made it to the Oak Tree when he threw the club at me and I was knocked out. I woke up in a strange room and didn't know what to do, but I knew I had to find you, so I concentrated really hard on where you were and I ended up here. I hope its okay." She finished her story and put her head on his shoulder again.

He automatically moved his hand to her back and tried to soothe her. "Mia, its okay, shhh." He didn't know what to say to her accept to reassure her that everything would be okay.

"Dray, I don't know what to do! He killed her! He wants to kill me! I don't even have my wand!" Mia was beginning to go into hysterics. He pushed her away just enough to look at her, looked straight into her eyes and said, "He's not going to kill you while I'm around. We'll get you a wand. You can stay here for as long as you like."

She looked at him and started to cry again. She just held on to him. Clinging for dear life. "I'm sorry. Merlin, what an idiot I am. I don't even know you that well and I just came here unannounced. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you. I'm gonna go." Mia made to get up but he pulled her back down onto his lap. "Are you crazy? Seriously, I think you're going nuts."

"I know! I'm a freak. I'm pathetic." Mia seriously was going nuts. He laughed and said "we've already gone through this. You are pathetic, but that's what I like about you. We're a match made in Hogwarts."

Finally he got her to laugh. It was a miracle. Maybe she would be okay after all.

They ended up sitting in front of the fireplace and laughing and talking all night again. Mia fell asleep on the couch around 6am so Dray put a blanket on her and settled himself on the floor in front of her. He didn't want to leave her alone in a strange house, so he just put a blanket and pillow on the floor and made himself comfortable for a few hours of sleep.

Mia woke up around 10 am and noticed her sleeping prince charming on the floor in front of her. 'What a guy…' she thought as she rose from the couch, trying not to disturb him, and walked to the kitchen, where she proceeded to make breakfast.

An hour later found Mia almost finished with the dishes, breakfast waiting for Dray on the table. Since she still had no wand, she did things the muggle way, which took her a little longer then usual. She smiled and looked over at Dray, which she did every few minutes to make sure it was real, and noticed that he was starting to wake. She laughed a little as she noticed a panicked look on his face, but he relaxed when he heard her giggles coming from the kitchen.

"Think that's funny, do you?" he said as he grabbed her and pushed her against the counter. "Your face was priceless." Mia laughed again and smiled as he looked hurt. "Well excuse me for caring for your wellbeing. You don't really know where you are, I wanted to make sure you were alright." And with that Dray started walking towards his bedroom.

"Wait!" Mia said, "I care for your wellbeing too! I made you breakfast." She pointed toward the table and he noticed that all of his favorite foods were made and ready to be eaten. He looked at her. She looked so sweet and adorable that he couldn't stay mad at her for laughing. "Thank you." He said, and he kissed her. "You're an angel in disguise."

"Disguised as what, I'd like to know." Mia laughed as she waited for his retort. "In disguise as a crafty little witch that I've come to adore."
