Well this is quite an uncomfortable situation. I'm driving a car, my "husband" is in the passenger seat and we have hardly managed to say a sentence to each other since the ceremony without one of us firing off an insult. He was just as thrilled as me about this mission. At least I was entertained for now. I doubt Draco had ever seen a car before so his expression when he was told this is how we were getting to our new home really was priceless. I made a point of driving like a maniac just to piss him off.

"Bloody hell!" he muttered as I swerved round a corner. I couldn't help but laugh. "Stop laughing Grey!" he growled "Are you trying to fucking kill me?"

"Well it is supposed to be 'Til Death Do Us Part' maybe speeding up the process isn't a bad idea, but I'm not trying to kill you, not now anyways. And you should really start calling me Keira otherwise the neighbours might get suspicious." I told him trying to keep the amusement out of my voice as he glared at me. After all he put me through at school this payback was only a fraction of what he really deserved. "Sycamore Close" I said reading the sign out loud.

"This is it." Draco announced as we pulled up to reasonably big house. "Home sweet home" he added bitterly.

"Showtime!" I muttered.

"Tell me why we are living in a neighbourhood full of muggles!" Draco whispered savagely as I put a box in the kitchen.

"Because we need people to believe you've changed and people are more likely to believe that if you can successfully live around muggles and maybe even appear to befriend a few of them" I said trying to keep my voice down "Didn't you listen to anything last night!"

"No, I was to busy trying to recover from the horror of being married to you!" he hissed

"Yeah, coz I'm loving it" I muttered sarcastically "I should fucking hex you into next week"

"Oh I'd love to see you try Keira, go on do it! He said holding his arms out so I had a clear shot of his chest.

"Don't. Push. Me." I growled walking out to the moving van to get more boxes. I got half way to the van when I noticed a woman walking up to me.

"Hi, are you moving in?" she asked with a friendly smile

"Is it that obvious?" I asked laughing and returning the smile.

"Well I'm Helen, I live next door." She said offering out her hand.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Keira" I said shaking her hand

"Who's that?" She asked curiously, checking someone out behind me with a smile. I turned to see whom she was referring to.

"Oh, that's my husband Draco" I said somehow managing to keep the smile on my face.

"Really? He looks to young to be married." She said in amazement

"We're both 20" I said coolly

"Wow!" she whispered. I didn't quite know how to take that because I wasn't quite sure what she was wowing at.

"Yeah." I muttered before turning and shouting at Draco. "Hey, honey come meet our new neighbour." He cautiously walked over.

"Hi, I'm Helen. She said eagerly and thrust out her hand the second he got here. My eyes didn't buldge like they wanted to instead I worked on staying smiling as it was becoming increasingly difficult.

"Draco Malfoy" he replied casually shaking her hand.

"Wow, that's an interesting name." she said smiling flirtily

"It is." He said quietly ignoring he attempt at flirting. In fact he continued to ignore her completely as he wrapped his arms round me and softly pulled my back into his chest. "Babe, when are we going to be finished?" he asked into my ear just loud enough so Helen could here him "I want to ..." he said trailing off and kissing my neck. I tried not to laugh as Helens face dropped and I also tried not to hit Draco because well that would be suspicious.

"Very soon, only a couple more boxes" I said warmly. "Well Helen nice to meet you, but we've got work to do" I told her then dragged Draco off to the van, not caring to see whether she said goodbye. We silently picked up boxes and took them to the house. I had quite a few questions bubbling through my brain and I was half expecting Draco to rant about how that was the worst experience of his life. But he didn't, so I took it upon myself to break the silence. "Why did you do that? I asked curiously

"What?" he said sounding clueless.

"Kiss me."

"Oh, because that silly muggle whore was flirting with me, and it seemed like the politest way of telling her to fuck off. Not to mention we're supposed to be newlyweds, we're supposed to behave like that, after all we've got to make this believable." He said calmly.

"Well thank you I guess" I said quietly. He raised an eyebrow at me, not quite believing what he was hearing. "If you hadn't have done anything I might have ripped her head off. Who flirts with some ones husband right in front of them? Stupid whore!" Draco laughed, I thought he would remind me this wasn't real or tease me for getting jealous or something like that. But he didn't.

"I know, you might have been smiling but anyone could see you were far from happy. ... I like your perfume by the way" he said before going outside to fetch another box. I followed 10 seconds after feeling terribly confused, not only did I get a complement but also we had a civil conversation. I think I'm in shock.

It was about 9 pm when we finally unpacked all of our boxes. We would have been done earlier but we could only use magic once it got dark and we could close the curtains. I was surprised that Draco and me continued to be civil to each other, usually when we were bitching about something though, like the furniture for example, we didn't pick it and some of it was so god damn awful it was funny. We also had random muggle appliances that neither of us knew what to do with. I was quite knowledgeable for a pureblood about muggle life, but only about the good stuff like cars and T.V. so I had no idea what some of the big metal boxes were in my kitchen, from what I read, one of them washed dishes. We also laughed about a couple of neighbours that came to visit, once they were gone of course. There was Andy and Paige who were overly happy and smiley and fluffy and we had to use a lot of self-control not to hex them to smithereens. Then there was Alyssa and Noah who were quite the opposite and kept us entertained with their little arguments, that was until one little argument turned into a huge argument and they left to "talk" at home. And how could we forget Helen and her husband John, who are both as bad as each other. I mean John actually grabbed my arse as I went to get everyone a drink so when I came back Draco tried to suck my face off and Helen and John decided to leave. I guess it had been quite an eventful day, which would explain why I was exhausted. "You want a beer?" I asked Draco heading to the fridge.

"Sure" he called back, so I grabbed a couple of bottles and an opener and plonked myself on the sofa next to Draco. "I think we should make a toast"

"Why?" I asked trying not to yawn.

"Because we've managed to go over 24 hours as a married couple without killing each other" he said as if it was obvious. "I didn't think it was possible"

"Whatever" I muttered clinked my bottle with his and took a big swig. We sat there in silence, it wasn't uncomfortable but it's not like we we're enjoying it just neither of us had anything to say. Two bottles later and still nothing had really been said. "I'm going to bed," I said dragging myself up.

"Wait! I have a couple of questions," he told me, his expression unreadable

"So you decided to ask them know instead of when I wasn't about to collapse from exhaustion?" I asked getting frustrated

"Of course" he said smirking, I decided I was too tired to start a fight so I just glared and sat back down. "Right, as we're going to be sharing a bed I want the right side."

"What?" I yelled getting annoyed

"I want the right side of the bed," he said firmly

"Whatever you freak! That wasn't even a question." I said resisting the urge to strangle him. I pity the fool who gets between me and sleep for too long.

"I'm aware of that, I just wanted to clear that up first. Now on to the questions. You are aware that we are to treat this as a real marriage right? No seeing other people?" he said like he was talking to an idiot. I nodded as I continued to glare at him "Right now for the real question, what about sex?" I don't know how seeing as I hadn't been eating or drinking anything at the time but somehow I managed to choke.

"What about sex?" I managed to splutter out after a bit of coughing and after I got my breath back. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a prude, far from it actually, I just hadn't expected him to come out of that. Now that I think about it I don't know why I was surprised, but I was.

"Well darling, we don't know how long this marriage is going to last, but it might be a while, do you really think you'll be able to go without sex until this is over? I know I won't," he said smirking at me.

"I'm sure I'll be fine!" I hissed "and as for you if you get too desperate I'll buy you a dirty magazine so you and your hand can have a party." He just laughed at me

"I'll bet you'll crack, from what Zambini says you cant go too long without, bet you can't even last a month" he said amused at the situation.

"Your on!" I said determinedly "Was that all?" I asked like I was bored, I took no answer as yes "Good!" I said pulling myself up. "Good night." I said coldly and made my way up the stairs grumbling "I knew I should have smothered Blaise in his sleep!" I went into the bedroom grabbed a pair of short pyjamas and stormed off into the bathroom to get changed. "Stupid jerk! Thinks he knows everything! He's wrong! I'll show him!" I muttered angrily to myself. When I was done I went back into the bedroom and was pleased to see that Draco hadn't followed me up. 'Hmm ... the right side of the bed looks rather comfy' I thought chuckling before climbing in to the right side of the bed. I managed to doze off slightly grinning to myself. Only I was brought back to reality 5 minutes later.

"Keira!" Draco growled.

"What?" I asked groggily trying not to smile

"What do you think your doing?" he said like he was trying really hard to keep calm

"Sleeping" I sighed

"On my side of the bed!" he said starting to sound really mad while I tried really hard not to laugh.

"Oh, I hadn't noticed" I said playing innocent

"Bollocks!" he yelled

"Okay, okay, don' get your knickers in a twist" I said laughing while rolling over to the other side of the bed. Draco angrily climbed in, apparently he stripped off to his boxers while I was dozing. "Aww, honey lets not go to bed angry at each other" I said pouting playfully at him. He just glared at me, which made me giggle. "Night Draco" I said, snuggling into my pillow. There was silence. "Night Keira." I answered for him.
