The water was starting to get warmer. Persephone waited, expecting Draco to say something in reply to the comment about her real parents. She knew he could sense how she felt. She knew he was aware of how nervous she was. Persephone was astonished when Draco removed his shirt instead of replying. She could feel the redness creeping into her cheeks as she watched him drop both his pants and boxers before stepping into the bath.

Persephone took two steps back not sure what else to do. She had never taken a bath with another person, let alone a male. She turned and right as she did Draco wrapped his arms across her stomach, pulling her into his chest. He started to leave a trail of kisses down the back of her neck and onto her shoulders. She was just about to turn around when her alarm on her phone started to chirp, shocking them out of the moment.

Persephone moved quickly and got out of the bath, grabbing her phone in one motion. She turned the alarm off and turned to him "dinner is in 15 minutes, we better get dressed and get down there before Umbridge starts looking for us." Persephone bent down and picked up her clothes, trying to get them on as fast as possible. She could hear Draco behind her getting dressed. The silence was killing her. She let her clothes absorb the water that was on her skin but she knew she needed to dry her hair some.

As if he knew exactly what she was thinking Draco walked up behind her and wrapped a long piece of soft cotton cloth around her head. With a quick kiss to the back of her neck, he moved and walked out of the room. The moment he was gone Persephone finally let out a big breath of air. Finally she was alone again. She scrunched her hair in the towel and slipped on her shoes. She was upset she didnt get a chance to nap in the bed, she was even more upset with herself for wanting to do more then sleep in it.

As she walked out of the room, making sure the door disappeared behind her. All she could think was how being married to Draco was going to cause problems. As far as she could tell he was fully on board with killing anyone who wasnt full blood. The thought if being married to someone who refured to muggles as mudbloods made her feel sick. She had always felt no different about muggles as she did wizards.

Walking down the stairs all she could think about was if she would have been able to go to school in the united states this wouldnt have been a problem. She spent so much time there with her god mother that sometimes she lost her irish accent. Something that didnt really bother her much. The witch's and wizards in the states where always kind and never treated the "no-mags" any less for their lack of magical blood.

As persephone was walking into the great hall to eat, she bumped into neville. She blushed deep red. She has had a crush on him for a good 4 years now but she always felt like he never noticed her.

"Sorry about that Neville, i was in my own mind. Anything i could do to make up for it?" She could see that he noticed her blush and that he was now blushing too.

"Oh no thats okay. Wasnt looking where i was going. Too hungry ya know." He replied softly.

Persephone giggled some and decided to risk exposing her crush for him.

"Would you mind if i ate with you Neville? I know its not normal to not eat at your own house table but i really dont have any friends."

She watched as Neville smiled big and nodded. She walked over with him to the gryffindor table and sat next to him. The moment she did she felt a wave of jealousy and anger flow through her. Draco must have noticed and he wasnt hiding his feelings well. She didnt care, she might not have had a choice about marrying him. But she had a choice about falling for his lies and bullshit. Persephone moved her hand under the table and grabbed Nevilles. "This is worth it" she thought before noticing Ron and Harry giving thubs up to Neville. She had never seen such happiness. She didnt even notice that Draco hard left the room or her father looking down the table at her in disgust.
