Chapter 1: En Tus Pupilas
Draco Malfoy was walking down the slopping lawns of Livingston Manor in search of his life long best friend, his only friend, Christine Livingston. Past the hedges, he was told; he would find her tending to her horse, Apollo. And there she was combing the horses' mane, with her back to him. She was wearing a white tank top and a simple pair of jeans with her chocolate brown hair up in a ponytail. Not even five steps into the stable she spoke, with her back still turned.
"Aren't you supposed to knock before entering a room?"
"I would hardly consider this a room." Draco sneered.
"Well you would wouldn't you? But I have to tell you that the horse very much so consider this a room, even if you do not. So show some respect next time Malfoy." Chris said placing the brush in a small basket next to the horse.
"Chris I am hurt that you resort to calling me by my last name." Draco said mockingly placing his hand above his heart looking wounded.
"I can see how that works since those Gryffindors that you hate so, only call you by your last name." Chris said turning around with a smile playing on her lips.
"Oh yes how I hate them so…" Draco drawled.
Chris finally giving into the smile ran across the stable and jumped on Draco and hugged him with all her might. Good thing for that Draco opened his arms just seconds before she landed. Draco was hugging her back just as fiercely.
"I've missed you so much Draco, oh so much." Chris whispered.
"So have I. You have no idea just how much." Draco whispered back.
After a few more moments Draco let go of Christine and Christine of Draco, and both took a step back to really look at each other and how much they had changed in the months they had been apart.
Draco had gotten taller, now being a good 6'1, 6'2 and filled out as well. Not as lanky as he used to be, he had gotten a bit of muscle, the perfect seeker's body. His face had filled out a bit; his nose not as pointy but he still retained his sharp features and his eyes. Those eyes that looked like liquid mercury, you could drown in those eyes and not even know it, not want to be rescued, and his eyes had gained coldness, a sharp edge about them.
Christine had grown up during their time spent apart; she had filled out in all the right places making her any guys dream. Her creamy ivory complexion was unmarred by blemishes and looked as soft as baby's skin. She had long chocolate brown hair that fell from its confines and framed her face in soft tendrils, her tresses looking silky and begging you to run your finger through them. Long, black lashes encased her hauntingly beautiful violet eyes; eyes that could captivate you and would never let you go.
"When did you get here?" Chris asked, snapping Draco out of his reverie.
"'Bout fifteen minutes ago. Got here with mum, yours practically shoved me in this direction, probably to get all the gossip from mother." Draco said lacing his arm with Chris' and tugging her up the yard away from the stables.
"To right you are. Now where are we going Draco?" Chris asked trying to tug her arm from Draco's grip, which all proved to no avail.
"Away from that God forsaken place. You may like horses but I do not!" Draco said tugging harder on Chris' arm.
"You're still holding a grudge over something that happened FOUR years ago and with a completely different animal! And I can walk perfectly fine on my so could you bloody well let go of me!" Christine exclaimed and stopped moving all together.
"If you don't start moving I'll make you." Draco said.
"Is that a threat?" Chris said raising an eyebrow.
"Yes, and if you don't start moving willingly I will be forced to take action." Draco smirked.
"You wouldn't dare."
"Oh you know I would. I'll give you to the count of three. One. Two. Three." Draco counted and seeing that Chris wasn't budging he grabbed her around her middle and placed her on his shoulder, cave man style.
"Draco Malfoy you put me down this instant!" Chris yelled, slamming her fists into his back.
"You took to long and this way I don't have to dislocate your arm pulling you all the way up to the house, also this way is much faster." Draco said nonchalant, picking up his pace as if to prove his point. In just a matter of moments Draco had already reached the back steps pf the house and was on the patio where he came upon his mother and Christine's mother having a cup of tea and exchanging the latest gossip. Both looked up when they heard Draco coming.
"Hello mum, Fabiana." Draco said pleasantly looking from his mom to Chris' mom. The two looked like complete opposites, Draco's mother, Narcissa, had platinum blond hair and sparkling ice blue eyes, while Christine's mother, Fabiana, had olive skin, brown almost black hair and the same violet eyes Christine had. That was the only thing that could ever relate the two, they looked so different.
"Draco where have you placed my daughter?" Fabiana asked amusedly.
"I'm back here mother." Chris mumbled. "Narcissa could you please tell Draco to put me down!"
Narcissa chuckled and then looked at her son expectantly, "Well you heard her Draco, put her down."
"Fine, I'll put her down." Draco grumbled and placed Christine on the floor in front of him.
"Christine, Fabiana tells me you're starting Hogwarts this year, what house do you think you'll be placed in?" Narcissa asked, staring right through Christine. Christine then looked at Draco asking for some interference.
"Mum! Fabiana I was planning on taking Chris to Diagon Alley to help her get everything." Draco said, placing a hand on the small of Chris' back comfortingly.
"Well that sounds great Draco, you two go right ahead." Fabiana said smiling though it didn't reach her eyes.
"Thanks Fabiana. Lets go Chris." Draco said grabbing her hand once more and steered her out of the room.
"You know she let us go just so I would get out of the house." Chris pointed out once they were out of earshot.
"For whatever reason she did so lets go before she changes her mind." Draco countered.
"Fine let me just get to my room and change." Chris said heading towards the stairs, and started climbing.
"What? You look fine!" Draco exclaimed behind her, following her up the stairs
"I look like a bum and smell like a horse." Chris said over her shoulder once they reached the landing. She headed down the corridor to their left and went into the third door on the right, Draco close behind her.
"So this is your new room?" Draco asked looking around. The walls were a deep rich sapphire blue, the bed was in lighter shades of blue on the opposite side of the room, and the armoire and desk were both made of rose wood. There were two doors one on the left side and the other on the right.
"Make yourself comfortable, I'm just going to take a quick shower." Chris said hunched over an open drawer pulling clothes out. Finally choosing something she went through the door on the right, leaving Draco alone in the room.
He walked toward the desk and started looking at the papers thrown on them. There were a couple of unfinished letters, her Hogwarts letters and booklist. Underneath all the clutter of papers was a green leather bound book. Taking it from the desk Draco sat on the bed and opened it. Inside he found it was a photo album, many photos of him when he was younger and he and Christine when they were kids and on different vacations they had taken together. He was so into looking at the photos he didn't even notice Christine was back in the room.
"I was planning to give you that for your birthday." Christine said, walking up to him.
"Where did you get all these?" Draco asked looking up a her.
"Here and there, your mom gave me quite a few. Do you like it?" Christine asked.
"More than anything, Chris." Draco whispered. "Thank you."
"You're welcome. Now lets go." Chris said walking up to the armoire once again shuffling through its contents. She came back with a black knee length duster. Christine was wearing a white corset top, a black pinstripe skirt and square toe boots. Her hair was still wet and curling. Draco couldn't help but staring at how good she looked.
"Draco lets go." Chris said heading towards the door. Which successfully snapped Draco out of his reverie.
Draco led Christine out of the fireplace in the Leaky Cauldron and out into the backyard and tapped the bricks in a certain order and them came the archway that opened up to Diagon Alley.
"Chris I have to go to Gringotts for a moment t sort a few things out. You don't mind do you?" Draco asked turning around to face her.
"Of course I don't mind Draco, I'll be in Flourish and Blotts getting my books." Chris said giving him a reassuring smile.
"Okay, I'll meet you there in half an hour." Draco said smiling back.
"See you then." Chris said, kissed Draco on the cheek and left for Flourish and Blotts. Once inside the bookstore she found it was packed with people. Edging her way around them she had reached one of the aisle and started looking for her books. She found a couple of the books and headed towards another aisle. Looking at the book in her hands she crashed into a person, sending her books to the floor.
"I'm sorry, I should've watched where I was going." Chris said not looking at the person, bending over to get her books.
"Its okay, I should have been more careful as well." The person said. Christine looked up into a pair of dazzlingly emerald green eyes, covered by a pair of glasses; he also had messy jet-black hair. "I'm Harry."
"I'm Christine." Chris said smiling, after a couple of moments a look of comprehension dawned upon her. "You mean Potter? You're Harry Potter?" It was more of a statement than a question.
Harry nodded his head. Christine started laughing. Harry looked around and then asked "Are you okay?"
"Oh me? I'm fine, really, I'm fine." Chris choked out trying to contain her laughter.
"Oy Harry!" A guy with blazing red hair came up to them followed by a girl with bushy brown hair. "There you are mate. Who's this?"
Harry was about to answer but Christine had clamed down a bit to be able to talk properly, "You're Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, right?" Christine asked.
They both nodded their heads confusedly and Christine started laughing again.
Ron turned to Harry and asked "Is she mental?" Harry just shrugged.
Suddenly Draco appeared from behind Ron and Hermione. Not noticing who she was with he said, "Chris I've been looking everywhere, got your books?"
"Malfoy!" Both Harry and Ron exclaimed.
"What are you doing here Potter, Weasley?" Draco sneered.
"We could ask you the same." Ron shot back.
"Oh really can't you three act civil?" Hermione asked exasperatedly.
"Not likely Mud-" Draco started but was caught of by Chris smacking him upside the head. "What the bloody hell you do that for?" Draco cried out rubbing the back of his head.
"I know what you were going to say, so shut." Chris said looking menacingly. Draco just glared at her.
"Seems she's got you whipped Malfoy." Harry sneered.
"You better shut up as well Potter, you have no idea what I could do to you." Chris said then walked right up to him and placed her mouth hovering next to his ear and said, "And you'd be begging for more." Then turned around and headed for the potions section, and Draco followed but not before he smirked at them. Once he reached Chris in a quieter corner of the bookshop he spun her around and asked what the hell was she doing.
"Which part? The me laughing my head of at Harry, Ron and Hermione or me leaving Harry wanting something he could never have?" Chris asked.
"Both." Draco practically growled.
"Are you jealous?" Chris asked mockingly.
"I am not jealous!" Draco growled.
"Yes you are! You're jealous!" Chris said looking smug.
Draco just shoved her up against the bookcase and pinned her there with his body. "I was not jealous." Draco repeated slowly.
"Right. Not jealous." Chris said her breath coming in short pants. Draco started lowering his head and Chris closed her eyes but they were pulled a part by a mom who cleared her throat and was covering her daughter's eyes. She was glaring at both Draco and Chris. Draco just shrugged and plucked the potions book from the self and started walking with Chris behind him her head ducked so no one could see her blushing.
Once they reached the register Draco took Chris' books from her hand and paid the man. Soon they quickly left Flourish and Blotts and headed to Madam Malkin's. One they were outside the shop Chris looked at it a bit hesitantly.
"Come on, you need robes for Hogwarts and I need new ones as well." Draco said pulling her into the shop. Once inside Madam Malkin hurriedly came over to them.
"Mr. Malfoy, what can I help you with?"
"I need new school robes and so does she, she's a new student at Hogwarts." Draco explained looking bored.
"Why yes. Come with me dear." Madam Malkin said and grabbed Chris' arm and pulled her onto the small stool and started fitting her with new robes. Chris winced a couple of times when Madam Malkin stuck her with a pin. Madam Malkin left for a moment to get more supplies when Christine looked at Draco in the mirror and said "I haven't even bought these robes and yet you'll find my blood on them!" Then looked at her reflection.
"I look like I'm wearing a sack." Chris sighed.
"She is still measuring you, and you'd rather have loose robes." Draco said.
"If you say so, if not I'm taking a tailoring charm to these!" Chris said fingering the material.
Half an hour later they both left loaded with packages. Then they headed to the Apothecary and got everything.
"Come on, I want some ice cream." Draco said pulling her toward the ice cream shop.
"You're acting like a seven-year-old. Aren't you supposed to be seventeen?" Chris said, raising an eyebrow.
"Please, if you come with I'll buy you one!"
"Fine, but I'll take some of yours, I'm not in an ice cream-y mood."
"Thank you." Draco smiled and started pulling her again.
Draco finally pulled her into the shop, they sat at one of the tables near the windows and a few minutes later Draco was brought his ice cream.
"Like chocolate do you?" Chris asked amusedly surveying the double chocolate sundae with chocolate frogs on top.
"I love sweets and you know that, it's my one weakness." Draco said taking a spoonful from the bowl
"That and Quiditch." Chris said taking a small spoonful. Chris was looking out the window thoughtfully then turned her attention back to Draco and snorted.
"What?" Draco asked another spoonful an inch away from his lips.
"You have a bit of ice cream on your face." Chris chuckled tapping her chin.
Draco tried to wipe it away but kept missing it; Chris reached over the table and swiped it away with her thumb. Draco grabbed her hand and took her thumb in his mouth, after a few seconds he let go of her hand. Chris' eyes were wide as saucers, and she was paralysed with shock that she was still halfway across the table, Draco rose to kiss her, but they were interrupted once again, this time by the Troublesome Trio. It was Harry that cleared his throat.
"Hi Harry." Chris smiled though it didn't reach her eyes.
"Christine you dropped this in the shop." Harry said, shooting daggers at Draco, and handed Chris a silk ribbon necklace with a green teardrop pendant that had a small dragon in it.
"Thank you Harry, I didn't even notice it fell!" Chris exclaimed and jumped up and hugged Harry. Suddenly Draco banged some money on to the table and just left, the door swinging behind him.
