Chapter Three: Tori Greengrass-Malfoy
Astoria stared at the manor's sprawling gardens from her balcony.
She was a beautiful, proud figure with the aristocratic features of a Malfoy, but the soul of a Greengrass.
Disregarding the calm, proud facade Astoria put up for the world to see, she was not happy.
Her parents had forced her into a marriage she knew she would never be happy in and despite Draco's kindness, both her and his hearts belonged to others' rather than one another's.
Astoria had been a good friend of Draco's in school...almost as dear to him as Pansy, and she knew whom he loved right at the beginning: Harry Potter.
Astoria sighed.
Draco also knew whom she loved...it was a secret he would never tell, for Astoria was madly in love with the wife of Draco's love, Ginny Potter.
On the day of Harry and Ginny's wedding, both Draco and Astoria drank themselves into a stupor, overcome with grief and wanting to forget, they made frantic love for the first and only time, thus resulting in their beloved son, Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy.
They both regretted it immensely—not the birth of their son, for they loved him dearly—but rather, the fact that they had done it in a moment of poor judgement—their son deserved better.
She smiled as she remembered Scorpius' sweet face.
She loved that little boy more than anything in the world—even as much as she loved Ginny, although in a different way, of course—but all the same, Scorpius was the apple of her eye, her pride and joy.
She wished dearly that she didn't have to leave him...but she needed to fulfill her life dreams and take the chances she was too stupid to take in her youth.
She needed Ginny.
Astoria closed her gray eyes, envisioning Ginny's sweet face: her warm brown eyes, ginger hair, and her soft, voluptuous figure.
Her gaze grew hungry.
Oh, how she would give anything to touch that beauty!
"Thinking about Ginny, again?" asked Draco, who had suddenly appeared behind her.
"Of course," she acquiesced softly, unperturbed, "who else?"
Draco chuckled quietly.
"Who else, indeed?" he agreed, affectionate.
His gaze then turned serious.
"I have some news that may interest you," he said, "About Ginny..."
Astoria whirled around so fast, her hair whipped her in the face.
"You do?! What is it?! What happened?! Is she well?!" she cried.
Draco held up a hand to silence her.
"She is fine," he said, soothingly, "Although she is divorcing Harry...they agreed on it since neither one of them is 'happy with the marriage'."
Astoria's eyes narrowed.
"And how do you know all of this?" she asked suspiciously.
Draco laughed softly.
Astoria was a Slytherin through and through.
"Look," he said, tossing her the Daily Prophet.
Astoria's eyes quickly scanned the article before she looked up at Draco in wonder.
"Does this mean...?" she breathed.
"That we're getting a divorce too?" completed Draco, "Yes."
Astoria stood stock still before she launched herself at Draco and threw her arms around his neck, embracing him.
"Oh Draco! I'm so happy!" she cried, "We can finally fulfill our dreams! We can finally be with our loves!"
Draco smiled.
"Although I will miss you a bit," he said softly, "I've grown quite fond of you..."
Astoria pulled back, then smiled sweetly.
"We have a son together, Draco," she said, smiling, "We'll alway be a part of each other's lives!"
Draco smiled, realizing the truth in her words and said, "And even if that weren't so...You'll always be my best friend, Tori..."
Astoria's eyes filled with tears.
"As will you, Drake," she whispered, "as will you."
They stood for a moment, looking into each others' eyes and saying goodbye to their marriage, before they both pulled themselves together and straightened up.
"Well," said Draco, all business now, "Are you ready to rumble?"
Astoria nodded shortly.
"Let's do this thing!" she replied.
And they did.
