Draco awoke to an excited eleven year old girl jumping up and down on his bed squealing with delight "Drakie, Drakie, It came"
Draco sat up and looked at the old grandfather clock, "Please don't call
me that. It's five in the morning! What do you think you're doing waking me up this early? You know how lucky you were not to be jinxed"
"I got my Hogwarts letter"
"Go back to bed we will talk about this later, at a decent hour"
"But Drakie"
"Later! And stop calling me that"
Arabella gave a defeated sigh and sulked out of the room thumping her feet.
Draco woke at nine and got dressed and headed down to the dining room to get some breakfast, when he got there he could hear Arabella's excited squeals. When he entered the room he found her sitting at the table with Snape looking over the list of things she would need for her classes.
"I will take you to Diagon Alley after breakfast Arabella," Draco interrupted.
"There is no need to inconvenience yourself Draco, I've already offered to take her," replied Snape snidely.
"Actually, it is no inconvenience at all. I will be taking her she is after all my charge not yours," smirked Draco knowing he had won the argument.
After breakfast Draco and Arabella got ready and traveled to Diagon Alley via side-along Apperation, as no Malfoy would ever be seen smeared with the filth and ash that accompanied the use of floo powder. Their first stop was Olivander's to get her a wand, and after a few colorful explosions (a few of which Draco was sure were on purpose, as they resulted in fits of giggles) she had her perfect wand: It was twelve inches long and made of strong birch wood, with the heartstring of a very fierce Chinese Fireball. Their next stop was Eylopps Owl Emporium, where she decided on a snowy owl which reminded him very much of Potter's bloody owl.
When Draco had settled the bill he stepped out of the store and into someone, "Bloody Hell...Why don't you watch where you're going...do you know who I..."
The lack of response from the rude person he'd run into made the blond wizard look up and he found that he was staring into a pair of eyes he hadn't seen for years. 'Oh my god, it's Her! After so many years it's actually her,' he thought to himself, speechless for the first time in his life.
