So we left off with Ally walking up the stairs and looking up at a pair of eyes right?
Good
"Hello Mr.Malfoy" He
didnt smile or move at all. His cold eyes just stared at me with such
hatred I wished to disappear.
"Its about time you showed up.
I need to speak with you" He said walking down.
"Okay,
I just-"
"Ill be at the Caf at 8 pm. Dont be late"
I nodded and saw him disappear. Had Draco told his daddy? Was he
really that stupid?
"I
cant have dinner with you, I have some things to attend to, please
tell my grandpa that Im sorry" Stacie looked disappointed,
"Trust me Stacie, this is really important, you know I
wouldnt leave unless it was absolutely necessary"
"Alright
but you us one" I smiled,
"Dont worry Ill make it up to
you" I walked out the door and apparated. It was 7:58.
"Mr-"
"Sit down" I never met anyone that had the power to
threaten you with out really saying anything.
"What is it you
wanted to talk to me about?"
"I heard from my son that
you canceled the wedding, I thought we had an accord?"
"I
just-"
"Your father should be here in a few minutes"He
said interrupting me. I didnt like the idea of seeing my father
come.
"I dont understand why this is such a big deal, I
canceled it because I didnt remember him, didnt your son tell you
that?" I said glaring at him. I was attempting to give him the
same look he was giving me but it seemed impossible.
"He did
tell me, but that-"
"That, Mr.Malfoy, seems like a good
enough reason, Im not 17 anymore so please dont treat me like I am
one, I make my own decisions"
"I dont think so" My
father said looking at me. He looked older than ever with gray hair
already showing at his roots. He sat right across from me and cleared
his throat.
"Its good to see you" He said quietly and
looked at me. I didnt answer.
"We made an agreement, you
agreed to marry Draco"
"I didnt sign a paper that said
that I have to, it wasnt even my choice it was yours" I said
ignoring the stare from Lucious. He wasnt part of this.
"I
think it was yours, you said you wanted to-"
"No, I
said I would if my mother wanted it so, but you know what? My mother
is dead, she wasnt there to help me grow, and I know it wasnt her
fault because Im sure that if she wouldve known how miserable I was
she wouldve stopped the wedding " My father shifted and raised
his eye brows at me.
"Dont speak to me, Alexia"
"I
can speak up now, you know that? I ran away from home to be free and
Ive come back to let you know that Im not standing up for this, I
make the final decision. Not you, not Draco, and not Lucius, I do and
if I choose not to marry Draco than Im not going to know. Dont even
threaten to say that youll forget about me because you were never
there, you never will be, youre not my father" I said standing
up and glaring at him.
"Sit down, Alexia, I didnt say you
could leave"
"Well Im thinking I dont care what you
said or not, Im done having this conversation and if Draco isnt even
strong enough to come and talk about this then guess what? Hes not
worth it"
"Im right behind you" I turned and
looked up to see Draco. He was standing there, with his face all red.
"Why did you have to go acting like a daddys boy and telling
your father about our wedding, hes old and married, were not, he has
nothing to do with this, we had a lot in common, you and I, but now
we dont, because Im not afraid and Im not going to listen to my
father, I almost feel sorry for you, because you let yourself be
pushed by your father, youre not worth it, and I dont care what you
say, Im not going to marry you, Im sorry because you know I did love
you, you were there for me when I needed someone and I thank you for
that, but I dont think I can ever love you, not the way I love
Oliver" I said startling myself because I had said it so freely.
In front of the three men that had kept me away from him in the first
place.
"Alexia, wait" My father said but I just ran
away, and apparated, I had never felt so free in my life.
"Im
so proud of you, I wouldve paid to be there, standing there seeing
you stand up to those three" I smiled and grabbed another
popcorn.
"I know, I just cant believe I did it, I used to
dream about doing it but I never thought it would happen"
"I
knew youd get tired of them sooner or later" My grandfather was
shaking his head and looking from me to the tv.
"I cant
believe your father showed up for this,"
"I know but
hes not worth it, someday hell realize what a mistake his whole life
has been"
"Im glad you found yourself I never thought
that marrying Draco was good for you"
I sighed and closed my
eyes. I was free, my whole body was for once relaxed and for once in
a long time I felt completely free of Drama, of problems. "Im
going to go and get some sleep" I said dumping the bowl of
popcorn in the sink and pushing my hair out of the nice bun I had on.
"Alright, good night"
"Good night"
"Finally I can get some peaceful sleep."
"Okay
so please tell me about Oliver, did you see him?" Stacie cleared
her throat and shifted.
"What do you think about this one?"
I shook my head looking at the ugly dress I felt bad for thinking
that but it truly was ugly, who would ever wear that?
"So..."
"So...what?" "Tell me, have you seen Oliver, I
need to talk to him, now that Im finally free Im just glad I still
have him," Stacie started moving faster around the crowded
store, leaving me behind.
"Did you hear me?"
"Listen
Ally, maybe you should forget Oliver"
"What, are you
crazy?"
"I just dont think you two, well Im sorry but
you know"
"No I dont what are you trying to tell me,
what is it, did something happen to him?"
"Not exactly"
I sighed.
"You almost scared me there"
"Yeah,
I saw him, but maybe you should-"
"Just tell me whats
going on because Im getting frustrated"
"Well, you
should see for yourself, I dont think I can tell you"
I bit
my lip nervously. "Something did happen didnt it?"
"Just
go talk to him, I think you should "I put my hands in my pockets
and sighed loudly.
"Im getting a bad feeling about this"
"Just talk to him" I nodded. What was wrong?
I
cracked my fingers nervously and pressed the button. My whole body
was shaking, I dont even know how it was possible that I was actually
not on the floor or running away like a chicken. When I heard the
lock being removed from the hotel room my whole body jumped and then
when I saw the face that was peaking out my heart stopped.
"I
guess I have the wrong room" The young beautiful woman opened
the door fully, her brown hair was falling around her waist and she
was wearing what looked like skanky pajamas.
"Who are you
looking for?" She didnt look much older than me, maybe a year or
two.
"Oliver Wood, but hes-"
"Hes here, let me
go get him" My whole world came crashing down.
