Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or anything else to do with Harry Potter, but Estelle, Sara Tonks, Nicole, Samantha and whoever else I come up with in the school! Oh and Nicole and Samantha were born before Bellatrix some way or another ended up in Azkaban along with Rodolphus, so now Rodolphus's mother is watching Nicole and Sam.
Chapter 1: Meet Estelle
Estelle Malfoy, otherwise known as Ella, stared down at her math quiz grade. An 87, girl you can do so much better! Her Aunt Andromeda would be pleased, an 87 was high enough, but to Ella, it wasn't good enough. She wanted to graduate being top of her class, and 87's weren't going to give her that. A poke in her ribs made her look up. "What did you get on the quiz?" asked her cousin Sara.
"What did you?"
"I asked you first." Estelle handed Sara her quiz. While Sara compared Estelle's quiz with her own, Estelle looked at the time. Almost time to get out of school! I can't wait to go home and eat- "No way Ella! You got an 87! I got a stupid 82! How do you do it?" Estelle looked at Sara and smirked.
"It's called studying and paying attention in class, not playing on your laptop or doodling on your paper. Can I have my quiz back?" Sara just stuck her tongue out and handed Estelle's quiz back.
"Alright class, let's wrap it up! The bell is going to ring in a matter of minutes and then you can all be wild and free! And for you Sophomores in here who just got their license, you better not hit my car!" their math teacher, Mr. Anderson stood in front of the class pretending to look 'serious'. A few chuckles were heard around the room. Just then the bell rang and everyone stampeded for the door. Estelle and Sara walked out into the chaotic hallway.
"Meet you at the usual spot?" Estelle nodded. "Cool, see you in 7." It took about seven minutes for Estelle to get to her locker, get her homework, and walk out to the back side of the school where the parking lot was.
Closing her locker door, Estelle started making her way down to the parking lot when suddenly someone pulled her hair causing her stop and walk backwards somewhat. "Nicole Lestrange one of these days I'm going to get my revenge on you!" turning around she tried to give her cousin a cold look but instead burst out laughing when she saw Nicole's hair. It smelt bad and looked burnt at the ends. Nicole however, looked none too happy about it.
"I know, I know, always pull your hair back when you're in the Science Lab."
"Let me guess sis, you didn't pull your hair back and now we get to tell Grandma the wonderful news and then we'll have to take you to the salon and then I get to make fun of you for about a day or two. Am I not correct?" Estelle giggled. Nicole's sister, Samantha was always looking for a chance to poke fun at Nicole.
"Hey gu-"
"We're girls Estelle, not guys!" Sam corrected.
"Well girls, can we move along, I got to get down to the parking lot-"
"What, do you have a hot date or something?" Nicole teased.
"Estelle, on a date? Don't make me laugh Nicole!" Samantha was laughing but stopped when her eyes got wide. Fixing her stare at Estelle, she suddenly became serious. "Do you have a date?"
"NO! God you guys-"
"Girls."
"Whatever, you are so immature! Do you honestly THINK that I have a date?"
"Well it's Friday."
"Well Nicole, you'll be quite happy to know that your grandmother invited us to dinner tonight, so Sara and I have to get home and freshen up… or do you want to smell us on a day that we've had gym?" both sisters were silent. "Good, now that that is settled, can we please go. I'm really hungry and Sara is waiting for me down by the parking lot."
When the girls reached the patio by the parking lot, Sara was sitting on a bench holding up a book with one hand, and holding her cell phone in the other. Looking up as the small group approached she smiled.
"Hey, mom called and said that she'd be a little late and… Good God Nicole what did you do to your hair?"
"It's a long story."
"Well if you want to know the real story, it's not really that long its…" but Samantha was never able to finish because Nicole put her hand over her sisters mouth, therefore blocking the flow of words. Sam just glared at her sister making sounds that sounded like 'I-hate-you!' Nicole just smiled her sweet smile at Sam, which irked her even more. Estelle shook her head while smiling.
"I'm so glad that I'm an only child."
"Who just happens to be living with me, so if you think about it, you're really not an only child."
"I know, but I'm talking biologically. I'm an only child who rarely ever sees her mother because she's always on long business trips." She only saw her mother once every two months – if she was lucky.
"Oh come off it Ella, you're happy here with us and think about it, you only have four more years and then we go to college… assuming that you don't graduate early." Just then Andromeda's SUV pulled up, with Andromeda looking grim.
"Estelle, Sara, Nicole and Sam get in the car NOW it's most urgent that we get you home now."
A/N: Chapter 1 is up! So yeah, Estelle doesn't even know her mother all that well let alone that she isn't an only child. Review please!!! They make me happy.
