Where the Lilies Bloom
Prologue
The gardens were beautiful.
Huge stone walls covered in twisting vines surrounded and kept this garden hidden. Fountains and paved ways layered the grounds like a spider web overlaying a sea of color.
Golden Narcissus, Pansy of every color, Periwinkles, violet Grape Hyacinths, and pure white Alyssum blossoms decorated this garden, along with all kinds of long stem roses. These flowers originated from Europe, therefore, flourished in this weather.
Draco's favorite blossoms were the lilies. Lilies, the color of the sky, the sun, the ocean, the sunset, blanketed the grounds. Spelled to survive in this environment, Draco knew they were rare. With little magical properties, they were not known in the magical world. They were breathtaking.
Draco remembered coming here for comfort, whenever life became too much, too…suffocating.
He remembered playing here for hours, making believe with invisible friends. He remembered when he spent the whole day, there. His mother, who usual cared for only herself, became worried for him. He remembered her icy cobalt blue eyes barely concealing concern. He remembered when she ran into the garden looking for her little boy. Her normal composed had been flustered.
He had been so happy that she noticed that he was gone, that she missed him, he ran up to her. His five-year old self had been beaming, his face lit with joy, eyes sparkling.
His smile was abruptly torn from his torn from his face as his mother slapped his cheek.
How pathetic he must have looked. Cheeks red with pain and shame, eyes glittering with unshed tears, small hands clutched tightly together, as his mother yelled at him.
After that, his mother didn't seem to care about him at all.
He never went back to gardens again.
