Disclaimer: Harry Potter is not mine...
A/N: Just wrote this little chapter to see where this will go to...
I'm really struggling with the tenses, it's just all a mess...
Please forgive me!
O-O-O
An hour later Narcissa woke again, her eyes opening slowly.
She must have fallen back to sleep... Why? Why hadn't she left yet?
Lucius had wrapped is arm around her, that's why... Wait... He wasn't there anymore!
Narcissa sat up in the bed and looked beside her. Nothing... Was actually she hurt by this?
She had no time to think about her feelings, this was the perfect moment to escape!
Finding her clothes hadn't been easy, they had been scattered all over the room. She hadn't really had the time last night to put them away all neat and tidy to wear them the next morning, she had rather been busy doing other not so neat and tidy things...
She wandered through the halls of the manor. There was nobody there, his parents were probably at one of the many other houses the Malfoy family owned. Looking around, she wondered if this would be the house they would live in when they would be married. Married... Mrs. Lucius Malfoy...
Narcissa still couldn't believe that she was engaged to the most desirable bachelor and player under the age of 20. What was she supposed to do?! She knew that Lucius was a player, a new girl every single week... Was she supposed to look the other way?! Was it really expected of her to be the good Pureblood wife and to keep her mouth shut even though everybody would know about all the other women of her husband?! She didn't know is she would be able to do that...
What is she couldn't? Would the same thing happen to her as what had happened to her sister Andromeda? No respect... No wealth... No family...
She shook her head. One step at a time, she needed to finish school first anyway before she would have to join the Malfoy family.
The front door came in sight. She started to walk towards it, but then she heard noises from the room on the left.
The door was open and she could hear Lucius and a house elf talking about tea.
How was she ever going to get out of here?! She needed to walk across the hall to reach the front door and that meant walking by the open door...
Narcissa sighed. She was going to do this! She would make it! She was a Black and Black didn't fail!
Trying not make a sound, she started tiptoeing towards the door. She was almost halfway.
''The tea is ready for you, Ms. Black'' Lucius had noticed her.
No... She couldn't just walk out now...
Narcissa cleared her throat and made her way to the room on the left, where Lucius was.
He sat at the end of a long table, with a cup of tea and a letter.
''Good Morning'' she said politely while she sat down all the way at the other end of the long table, as far away as possible.
The house elf immediately brought her the tea.
Narcissa just stared at her cup, too embarrassed to look at him.
''Good Morning'' he replied, not looking up from the letter he was reading.
He wasn't even really paying attention to her... Narcissa looked up. She kind of felt offended. She was embarrassed by everything that had happened last night and he didn't even seem to care. He was just reading that letter with a frown on his face.
Didn't he remember that they'd spent the night together?! Was this really the way he behaved towards girls?!
She didn't expect him to be in love with her, but he could at least sort of acknowledge her after spending the night with her!
Lucius downed the last of his tea and folded the letter.
''I have business to attend to'' ''I'll see you after the break at school, I guess...'' he left the room without another word.
Narcissa just sat there for a couple of minutes, to shocked to do anything. He had just left her there alone, in his own house. ''I'll see you after the break at school, I guess''... How did he dare?!
She got up and stormed out of the house.
Hogwarts would have to get ready, this would be an interesting year...
O-O-O
I've got some ideas ready, but we'll see how it goes...
