Chapter 6

Boarding the train to go to the Malfoys for the holidays Alexis remembered the night she spent with Ron in the Gryfandor common room talking and kissing. They agreed not to tell anyone what went on that night so Draco would never find out.

Rons different. She thought, He wants me for love, not lust. Unlike Draco. Thats why I like him so much.

The days leading up to Christmas were boring, Draco was always with his father, she stayed in her room most of the time playing cards with there house elf, Margarete. On Christmas morning her father came to visit. She was so excited.

"Im taking it you are beginning to really like Draco." her father said over dinner that night. They were at the Leaky Caldron.

Sipping her soup Alexis said, " Yea I am" she put on a fake smile.

"I just cant believe you were put into Gryfandoor house with Potter and his friends. You really do belong in Slytherin." at this Alexis sourly said,

" There not bad people daddy. They really are nice and they would never take Draco away from me. I dont know why you and Mr. Malfoy disapprove of that house."

"Listen here, you are my daughter... you will do what I say. Lucius and I have an agreement and his son are part of the agreement. You will not break it ."

"Yes sir" she muttered. Alexis knew that her father meant business now. He rarely ever got this mean but when he did she knew she better listen.

When Alexiss dad walked her to the Malfoys home Lucius answered the door.

"Well hello there." he said with a cold smile. "Run along now, Draco has a little something for you." he shoved the girl along. Alexis stood by the door because she knew the two men were talking about her.

"Potters friends are getting in the way Cornelius. We have to do something or the next generation of wizards are going to be ruled by some mudblood."

"What can I do Lucius? If I hurt one of um... she might squeal."

"I have a plan...simple but itll work. Cornelis Fudge our deal is working out for the best."
