Reluctantly I pulled away from Draco and pulled out the 'gifts' I had gotten from the Sorting Hat.

"Lexi if you don't want me here just tell me ok . . . ?"

" Okay Draco, umm would you like to help me open these?"

"Sure."

I stood up and he followed me to the desk in the corner of the room . . .

"Uh Lexi maybe you might just want to do that in private . . . cause when I was talking about Slytherin being against Voldermort I didn't mean every single one of us."

"Oh, well where do you suggest we go?"

"Umm how about my room? I've got my own." Draco then realized what his 'suggestion' could imply and blushed.

"Sure, and could I stay overnight? Please I really don't want to stay in Pansy's old bed." I started crying again and he caught me before I crumpled to the ground, picked me up and carried me up to his dorm muttering soothing words that I couldn't understand in my state. As we entered his room I gasped it was beautiful. Silver and black were the dominating colors and the room seemed like it was sparkling. Over in the far-right hand corner was a King-size four poster bed and a fireplace exactly adjacent to it. Large groups of cushions littered the room and in the other corner were two doors, one clearly labeled in silver 'STUDY' the other 'BATHROOM'.

"Oh, Draco it's beautiful." He lowered me onto one of the piles of cushions and summoned his own.

"Really thanks."

"Yeah well we should check out these 'gifts' then."

Before I could get them out my trunk and cat cage landed in the middle of the room causing me to shriek.

"Oh my stuff I forgot . . . hmm seems like the Headmaster approves of me staying here." I see a note taped to the side of my trunk and I picked it up and read it . . .

Dear Ms. Fox,

I heard about what Mr. Potter said and you shall receive no punishment he has been informed of how Miss. Parkison had died and deeply regrets what he said but I would understand if you never forgave him. I know about your new sleeping arrangements and as long as there are two beds I'm happy with this. Have fun this year and bring the Slytherins to our side 'actively'.

Sincerely Albus Dumbledore.

I chuckled for a bit at the way he unintentionally stated that me and Draco could do anything at all as long as there were two beds. Then the note burst into flames. I smiled and turned to a very confused Draco Malfoy . . .

"So where shall I unpack?"

After I had unpacked Draco transfigured me a bed just like his but it was fully black silk without the silver stitching. We then sat on the bed and talked for a while. When I suddenly remembered the 'gifts'.

"Draco we still have those 'gifts' to unwrap."

"Ok get them out."

I grabbed them out of my pocket and dumped them on my bed. I grabbed my wand ready to do a quick curse check when it disintegrated in my hand. "What the hell?"

"I'll get it 'Capriacatius'" his wand turned green for a second and then went back to normal. That meant it was fine. I reached forward shaking my old wand off my hands for the first box. I opened it and saw the most beautiful wand in the box. I carefully lifted it out of the box and I saw a note.

Dragon's Claw, Blood-wood, 13 inches.

Issued and engraved for a Ms. Alexandra Caroline Fox.

I twirled the wand in my hands and saw my name engraved in it. I smirked, I've always wanted a wand like this and it felt much more powerful than my old one.

"Draco?"

"Yeah?" said Draco looking over the note that had fallen out of the wand box.

"I wonder how old that box is." It indeed looked old maybe a few hundred years but it was probably enchanted to look like that.

"Dunno? Well I think that pouch has got lots in it so put it away and we'll look at it some other day, I'm tired." Draco stretched and yawned reminding me how tired I was.

"Ok well we better get to bed" I said standing up and pulling all of the offending objects off my bed. Satisfied I transfigured my robes into pajamas and got ready for bed too tired to notice that my new dorm mate was already fast asleep fully robed on his bed.

He was there again, he was always there. And as always the 'crutatius' curse reached his lips and as always I pointed my wand at myself and spoke the same words as before under my breath while I told him that I would never let him have me. That I belonged to someone else, that even in death I would never serve him. And then I finished my incantation and his curse hit me the same time as my own. Though I survived unlike the last time this nightmare had come. I had even screamed in preparation for the usual pain but none came.

"Lexi, Lexi wake up."

"Huh?"

"You were having a nightmare and talking in your sleep, it was scary. Then you screamed . . . Are you ok?"

"Yeah I'm fine."

"Oh ok, get some sleep."

"No. I mean . . . umm could you stay with me tonight I don't feel like being alone."

"Uh ok."

"Thanks Dray . . ."

"Hmmm Your welcome Lexi."

I then drifted of into a peaceful sleep. With no nightmares or cruel and evil baddies.
