Chapter Nine
Once we were sat in the garden away from Draco and his friends, Narcissa asked me what had happened and so I told her. She was really mad and wanted to go and have a word with Harry, but I told her not to. We sat in silence for a while after that, it wasn't an awkward silence though it was quite nice.
"I'm sorry I have ruined your afternoon, and broke your TV thing," I said quietly, and couldn't help but look to Narcissa when I heard her laugh. "It's okay my dear, you ruined nothing, I was talking to Marcus Flints grandmother and I can honestly tell you it was a pleasure to get away. As for the TV, we can easily get a new one," she told me with a genuine smile. "Okay, I think I will apologise to Draco though, he was watching the TV after all," I told her and she just laughed again and we set off towards the house.
When we had reached the house again, Narcissa and I parted ways, she went to explain to Lucius about what had happened, and I made my way to the room that Draco and his friends were in earlier. When I had reached it I gave a quick knock before slowly opening the door. Draco and Blaise were lying on the sofas, they were talking about Quidditch, but Marcus wasn't around. They turned to look at me and I smiled slightly as Draco beckoned me over to sit with them.
"Hey, you okay now?" he asked me as I sat on a large beanbag between the two sofas.
"Yeah, I guess, I'm sorry I broke your TV thing," I told him and he just laughed and told me that he would buy a new one.
"How did you manage to knock it off the wall, when you were across the room from it?" Blaise asked me.
"I'm telekinetic, but when I get upset I can't really control it, so thinks tend to fly around," I told him, I could sense he was shocked but he seemed to find it interesting too.
"So are you staying here tonight? Or are you just coming tomorrow as arranged?" Draco asked me.
"I will be coming over tomorrow afternoon, and then your parents are having the Flints over for dinner, I believe," I replied and he laughed. When I asked him why he was laughing, he just laughed more, and so I looked at Blaise and he shrugged and gave Draco a strange look. He soon calmed down and said, "you do realise you have already met Marcus Flint today?"
"W-what, when?" I asked, and before he could answer I groaned, realising that the guy I thought was really gorgeous earlier was, in fact, my future husband.
"Can someone tell me what is going on?" Blaise asked. "Oh sorry, well you see, dear Aurora here is betrothed to none other than Marcus Flint," Draco replied with a smirk, and we both heard Blaise mutter, "Bloody luck sod".
"I can't believe that was Marcus Flint earlier, he looks so different from a few years ago," I said and Blaise then laughed but agreed that he had changed a lot. The three of us stayed and talked until Narcissa came through to say that it was almost 5pm, almost dinner time at the Grangers house. I said a quick goodbye to everyone and gave Narcissa a hug before flooing home, and promising to return tomorrow at 2pm.
