I had just a brain fart on this chapter. I didn't want to do Draco or Alice because that's too normal, I wanted to do an OC and I was left with Sam or Eliza…as you know I decided to do Sam. I will be doing Eliza later on, do not worry!
I kept on looking at myself in the mirror. What was wrong with me? Am I not beautiful?
I tilted my head slightly up, I had a beautiful slender neck, flawless jaw line. I moved my head again, I could find no imperfection on me. Maybe it was my body, I got up walking to the floor length mirror on the other end of the room. I watched myself as I walk. There was no fat rolling with each step. I hardly had any fat to speak of, wait, that must be it. I looked down at my chest, nothing, complete flat.
I signed, at less now I know. Maria is an earlier bloomer, even with magic, she started to show signs when she was 6 ½.
I looked at my flawed body. I know when I get older I'll have breasts for now I will stay like this, flat.
Today, Emelina is coming over. It's just going to be us, Caroline ditched us for Elijah and Naomi was visiting her grandparents in China.
"Sam?" My mother called from outside the room.
I turned around, quickly rolling my top down. "Yes?"
"Maybe you should invite Maria over?"
"No." I replied curtly.
After I told my parents I was no longer friends with her, my mother had made it her mission to get us to be friends again. I always knew my mother liked her more.
"Besides" I turned to my closet, "Emelina is coming over."
"O, yes." Mother said, "Maybe, next week?"
"No!" I turned sharply. "Why do you even care?"
"Well, you two were just such great friends. I would hate to see it end like this."
"It has. Get over it."
My mother signed and left, probably to find some brandy to take her mind off of things. I swear, that lady is useless. My father is already at work and leaves a weak hearted foul to take care of me. My father can hardly stand to be around us. It reminds him of the mistake he made, marrying young, getting mother pregnant, me." Being a good pureblood man he did the right thing and not get a divorce. Sometimes, I wish he did. My mother stays here, she doesn't work, just leeches off of father's wealth.
I quickly spun around, looking for the perfect outfit to show off to Emelina.
I decided on a pair of high rise shorts, light washed with a printed t-shirt, a picture of Vishnu, I tucked the shirt in and got a pair of converse and headed out. My curly blonde locks were cut to my chin and bounced slightly with each turn.
I walked out to the main fireplace.
My mother was already there, I could smell the sweet sickly scent of brandy.
"Mother, you are truly pathetic." I said
"Please, Samantha, stop." She said, picking up the crystal glass and walked out of the room, the stench followed her.
I quickly snapped my fingers, our house elf poofed in front of me.
"Hurry, make this room smell like roses." I snapped at it. It nodded quickly and began to work it's magic on the room. I could already begin to smell freshly cut roses.
I nodded and left to make sure all the other rooms were perfect for my guest.
I walked into the kitchen and was surprise to see my father getting a glass out of the cabinet.
"Daddy." I said, hugging him from behind.
"yes, my sweet child?" He said
"I haven't seen you such a long time." I paused, looking up at him. "You are always at work. I missed you."
"I missed you too."
"Do you have a day off?"
"No. unfortunately not." Daddy paused, "How is your mother?"
"She already started drinking, daddy, the stench of brandy is everywhere. What will my friend think?"
"I'm sorry. Please be kind to her." Daddy replied, "is there anything you need?"
"No, nothing." I said. Twisting, Naomi's gift, a jade bracelet, around my arm. "I just want more time with you."
"I know, I know, but work is demanding. You know that."
"I know." I smiled brightly at him, this poor man didn't need any more hardships in his life.
He nodded and puffed, with the mug of Early Grey in his hand.
"Is your father?" I heard Mother ask.
"He already left." I snapped, no thanks to you.
"O, It's just, I need to talk to him." She said, smiling sadly. "I'll be up in my room, if your friend needs anything she can help herself to it."
I scoffed, "I know."
"Emeline!" I cried, in happiness. Perfect timing, there was no smell of brandy and all the alcohol has been put away. The house was spotless and I made sure to put fresh flowers everywhere.
"Sam." She smiled, looking sun kissed from the Spain light. "I missed you guys so much."
"I missed you too. How was Spain?" I asked
"The usual. Everyone should come and visit me during Christmas break this year. The weather is much milder than the harsh Scottish cold."
"Of course, I'll ask my father.'
"Did you invite Baise and his guest?"
"Of course." I rolled my eyes as I took her to my room. "Your bother is invited."
"Yes, I'm so excited for you to meet him." She bounced on her heels.
"Why didn't you bring him along?"
"He is hanging out with his friends." She shrugged, "Umm, I heard Draco was going to also get a small get together."
"What?!" I cried, no, this cannot be happening.
"it was just talk."
I quickly turned around and walked the other way.
"Where are we going?" She asked, she as hurried to keep up.
"I'm going to write to Draco. He cannot do this to me." I said over my shoulder
"Sam, it will be fine." Emeline said, trying to calm me down.
"No. it is not fine."
We quickly ran to my families private owlery, my owl was there, hooted happily at seeing me.
I quickly grabbed a piece of parchment and a quill and wrote a quick note.
Draco
What is this I hear about a party? I thought I invited you and told you that I will be having one. I already invited our friends. You cannot have a party too. I don't care if you changed the name to a "get together" it hardly matters since we all know it's a party.
Well, write back soon.
Love, Sam
I quickly sent it off before turning on my heel and smiling at my guest.
"Sorry about that."
"It's fine." Emelina said, rolling her eyes. "Nice house."
"I know." I bounced lightly to my room, Emelina following closely behind.
I hoped on the bed with Emelina as we began to gossip about school and our friends.
"Sam is going out with Elijah." Emelina brought up, "Honestly, I could never date a traitor."
"I don't think he is a traitor, just confused, he was tricked by that mudblood girl."
"But he still cared for her after the fact."
"He could have been under a spell." I shrugged; I still wonder why Naomi wanted Caroline to join our group.
"Well, I write to Caroline and she seems very bored for the summer, you and Naomi haven't been messaging her as much as me, why is that?" She asked
"All she talks about is how boring it is there and how much she wishes she could have went with Elijah to Africa." I rolled my eyes "After a while it gets a bit dull."
"I know." Emelina laughed "That's why I had to stop too."
I laughed with her but I knew Emelina and Caroline were closer. We all knew we talked about each other behind our backs. It's just common knowledge.
"Did you do your homework?" I asked after our fit of giggles.
"No. I'm guessing you have being a Ravenclaw and such."
"Of course." I answered, "I am still proud of my house. Blue is such a beautiful color on me."
"Well, if that is so then I would be in dreaded Gryffindor." She laughed, "Just imagine me hanging out with Harry Potter!"
"He isn't that bad looking." I responded seriously.
"Well, no, Merlin, his eyes are so amazing." She said, agreeing quickly
"I know." I said, "I just loved messing with him, getting Alice to break up with him, it was so much fun."
"Are you going to try and get Alice and Draco to break up?"
"Please. I'm smart, not clever or cunning like you Slytherins, nope, I'll just let their relationship self-destruct."
"You like him." Emeline noted.
"and you don't?" I asked quickly, "Draco is not only one of the most handsome guys in school but he is the heir to the Malfoy fortune."
"He is wonderful to look at but not my type. No one here is." Emeline responded.
I raised my eyes "Than what is your type?"
"I love my Spaniards, it's in my blood." She laughed.
"Of course."
"Hello! You must be Emeline." My mother walked into my room.
She always could clean up nicely. She had fresh pale blue robes on with gold stitching on the ends. Her hair was up on a bunch of curls piled on her head, a few ringlets fell behind her ears.
"You must be Mrs. Hunt." Emeline got up and went to greet her.
"It is so nice to meet you." She smiled, "I love it when Sam's friends come over."
"I'm glad you allowed me to come into your home."
"Any time." She smiled that fake small smile she gives to everyone.
She nodded and left.
"Wow, your mom is a beauty." Emeline said, "Now I know where you get your amazing looks, not to mention those envious curls."
I rolled my eyes and smiled thinly.
My mother was a beauty witch, was a model for Witches Weekly and for the infamous Warlock Whores, a porn magazine. That was how my father met her. He was reading that awful magazine and couldn't take his eyes off my mother. Using his mass wealth, he hunts her down and declared they were to go on at less one date.
Mother loves to say it was love at first sight but my daddy and I know she was just after the life of comfort. When they got married after only dating for a little less than a year, she was already pregnant with me. She pretty much spent all of daddy's wealth. If it wasn't for his parents we would have been broke. The marriage didn't go smoothly but they could hardly divorce after the publicity they had made.
Not to mention she refused to break her contract for Warlock Whores magazine which angered father. They used to get in a lot of fight but now they just ignore each other. She is a weak women, a hufflepuff and was only blessed with beautiful looks and pure blood. My father has never cheated on that woman even though we both know she has had many affairs that she labels "mistakes".
I hate her.
"Did I say something wrong?" Emeline asked
"What?" I quickly snapped back, "No, not at all. Let's talk about my party."
"I thought it was going to be a get together." Emeline said, "What if Bliase brings that girl?"
"What?" I asked, raising my eyebrows.
"Don't you read P&P magazine?" She asked, bring it out of the bag she brought.
"Daddy refuses to have that gossip magazine come to our house, so no but I wish I could get it. Why?"
"They had a teen addition and look!" She flipped through a page. She quickly brought out an addition of Pure & Perfect magazine, the only International pureblood exclusive magazine. I wish father would get it but he hates gossip. I heard he was in it for marrying that woman.
It's about Blaise Zambini and a girl named Enchante have been seen together lately all around Italy, enjoying each other's company. This Enchante girl is very famous in Italy but I've never heard about her here.
I looked at the article. Their pictures were a few different pictures of her and Blaise together. They were only holding hands but I guess that is a big deal in Italy. I scoffed, "Do you really believe Blaise would date her, doesn't he have Naomi?" I asked, knowing the answer.
"Naomi was just a shag." Emeline said, looking down sadly. "I felt so bad for Naomi, she just looked awful when she came down stairs. Caroline and I thought she would be so happy and on Blaise's arm but she was with you, leaning against you for support.
Emeline's Fashback
"O my Merlin, is that Naomi?" Caroline said, her eye wide.
I turned around to look at Sam and Naomi, coming into the Great Hall. Sam was practically holding Naomi, who was hardly walking. It looked like she was being dragged by Sam.
I felt everyone's eyes fall upon them and I was thankful that Maria and her cronies were not around to see this. It was heartbreaking to see my friend like this. I got up, gesturing Caroline to get her favorite food on her plate.
"What happened?" I asked, rushing to help Sam.
Sam gave some of Naomi's weight as we sat down. Naomi's head was in her hands, her left hand was bright red.
She mumbled something and then broke down into sobs.
"What?" I asked Sam, watching as our best friend break down.
"She slapped Blaise." Sam said, "After they did it, Naomi rightful thought they would be together, he said no and she just slapped him."
"Good for you!" Caroline said. Sam and I looked up at her, "I, I mean, about slapping him, right?"
Sam rolled her eyes. "Naomi is upset that she slapped him."
"Naomi, sweetheart. Please, today is the last day. I'm sure Blaise just said that because he doesn't want a long distance relationship." I tried to use reason to cheer her up but it only made her cries softer.
Caroline pushed her favorite breakfast in front of her, toasted pumpernickel bread with melted butter and some melon.
Naomi didn't eat a thing and just let the food get cold.
When we were sitting on the train, Naomi was leaning against the window, not looking at anyone or anything. Just staring off to space.
It was awkward to just sit here with we could hear Alice, Maria, and the mudblood chatting and laughing happily.
Sam's POV
"What should we do about this?" I asked, I know I should tell Naomi but she was finally happy seeing her Grandmother in China really did brighten her moods. I could tell by the way she wrote. I would hate to ruin the rest of her vacation but I know I should tell her if I end up not having a party and Draco is the one holding it, I don't think Blaise would dare bring this Enchante chick but I would hate to see Naomi upset and worst, embarrassed.
"Sam, your owl!" Emeline said, as she raised her arm for the house owl to land gracefully on.
It dropped the letter on my pillow and flew off to the Owlery.
It was indeed Draco's letter, the Malfoy insignia was stamped on the dark green wax. I broke the seal and let Emeline look over my shoulder before I began to read it outloud.
Samantha
I was hurt by your letter. I did not want to have this "get together" but my father is eager to meet Alice and my mother wants to meet all my friends since she has to make sure they are good blood.
I of course, had almost nothing to do about it and I am sorry that it falls so close to your own party.
I must ask you to cancel your own party since Mother hates an party too close to her own. I am very sorry about that. She has already written to your father.
Because of this accident, here is a list of the people I have invited. Here is an invite for you.
Draco
There was a square piece of heavy parchment with beautiful calligraphy.
The Malfoy Family Invites
Samantha Hunt & Family
To a small back to school party for our son, Draco. Please reply if you intend to come.
Thank you
Another note was a list of the people to come on it. Alice was the first person listed along with Blaise, Emeline and Maria. Pansy and Caroline was not invited.
"Why didn't he invite Caroline?" asked Emeline, her eyes got big.
"He probably doesn't care for her much. I mean the Walkers are purebloods but they considered secondary to almost every name on the list, look, Sterling, Greyson, Zambini, Flint, the list goes on of the most important pureblood families.
"But Caroline is one of our friends." Emeline said, "Shouldn't we fight for her?"
"and look secondary?" I asked, turning to Emeline. I signed, "Emeline, It's not worth it. Let's pretend we never saw this list, it will be better that way."
"I guess you are right."
I walked over to my fireplace, it was only for decoration right now but the flame glows forever. I through the list into the flames, watching as it turned to ashes.
Emeline looked sad but I knew she would soon forget. I smiled at her and gently lead her to the kitchen to go make the House Elves fetch us a small snack.
I'm finally done with this chapter. God, it took me forever!
I think I'm almost done with their summers. I have Eliza and Jared or Liz to do then the party.
Please review to make me type faster and to have another chapter.
Thanks for sticking with me.
