Lucius entered the great hall and looked around. He strode over to the Slytherin table and peeked down the middle to see if he could see Narcissa. There she was, sitting at the far end of the table, all by herself. Everyone around her paid no attention to her perfection just sitting there eating. Lucius smiled and quickened his pace down the long isle. He paused as he watched her slip a piece of bacon into her mouth while reading the Daily Profit. He crept up behind her till his mouth was next to her ear.

"May I join you?" He whispered into her ear. Narcissa's expression didn't change, but she placed her fork down hard on the table.

"Go away Malfoy." She spat. Lucius ignored her last words completely and took a seat next to her. Narcissa flipped the paper she was reading over and began reading the back like Lucius wasn't there. That didn't seem to faze Lucius at all; he just began eating the breakfast that had appeared before him.

"Anything interesting in the news today?" Lucius asked trying to make conversation. Narcissa sipped from her coffee and turned the page of her paper. "I love what you've done with your hair." Lucius tried again while admiring her golden flawless hair. Narcissa mentally scoffed knowing that she never did anything different with her hair.

"Cissa, what the hell is this?" Bellatrix asked as she passed Lucius to sit on Narcissa's other side.

"It just wont go away." Narcissa replied as if she were talking about a rash or a large growth that she would sooner kill herself than keep around.

"'Cissa?' That's cute" Lucius smiled as he gazed at Narcissa's turned away face. Bellatrix watched as Narcissa's face twisted into that of disgust and pain.

"Leave my sister alone, creep." She spat at Lucius who just returned her anger with a smile.

"It's pronounced Malfoy, actually." He told her innocently. Lucius then turned to face Narcissa who looked as if she was about to stab him with her fork. Her only thought was that a spoon would be much more painful. "Narcissa, you never told me this charming wench was your sister." Bellatrix almost jumped across him when Narcissa pointed her wand at his throat. Now everyone around them was looking in their direction. It was a real surprise to see a guy taking on the Black sisters, even if it was Lucius Malfoy.

"You take that back you pig of a man!" Narcissa yelled as she jabbed the wand further into Lucius' throat.

"You're so attractive when you're threatening me." Lucius cooed. The students watching gasped in horror at his comment. Surely he would end up in the hospital wing for such a comment. Bellatrix was now fuming and pointed her wand at Lucius neck. Everyone was dead silent as they watched him. Lucius overheard Rodolphus just a few seats away saying something about winning. In his head Lucius was pissed, but outside he just smiled.

"I'm glad your smiling, Malfoy-" Bellatrix snarled.

"-It will be much easier for your family at the wake." Narcissa finished with a cruel smile. Lucius' smile turned into a grin as his sparkling white teeth began to show through his lips. Just when everyone thought it was over, just as the girls started mumbling curses, Lucius pulled out his wand. Faster than lightning Lucius grabbed the tips of both girls wands and sent Bellatrix flying across the room while pulling Narcissa into a steamy kiss.

Everyone in the room cheered as Lucius made out with the beautiful, fuming Narcissa Black. She pushed herself away from him causing herself to fall off the bench. Lucius slid hers and Bellatrix's wand into his pocket and held out a hand to help her up. Narcissa glared up at him angrily and slapped his hand away from her. She pulled herself off of the floor and fixed her robes along with her frazzled hair.

"I hope you burn in hell, Lucius Malfoy!" Narcissa growled and stomped out of the great hall. Lucius watched as Rodolphus ran to Bellatrix and tried to help her from the floor.

"Get away from me, LeStrange!" She bit as she pushed him away from her and helped herself up. With that, she too left the great hall, and when she did, the hall combusted into cheers and whistles.

"Way to go Lucius," Rodolphus smirked. "You've just made Narcissa hate your guts, my victory is in the bag." Lucius turned away from him and stared at his plate. Had he really just screwed everything up?


Narcissa stormed down the hallway in a terrible fit of rage. She was so furious about how Lucius had treated her; no guy had ever dared to go that far. Narcissa stopped when she reached the hallway she had burned up with all her curses. She looked to the stonewall her back had been pressed against the first time Lucius kissed her and couldn't stop herself from thinking about it. Her hand upon instinct touched her lips as she thought of his body against hers.

"Cissa! Wait up!" Bellatrix called out from down the hallway. Narcissa's arm shot down to her side, she felt her face redden at the thought of her sister catching her thinking about that pig. "I just can't believe he did that! Are you okay?"

"Yes," Narcissa murmured. "I'm fine."

"That dick kissed you!" Bellatrix hissed. "I can't believe you let him live!" Narcissa sighed and continued walking.

"I was too embarrassed about the whole thing… he definitely schooled us, Bella."

"That's all the more reason why you should have burned his ass!"

"Look, I've got to get to class." Bellatrix watched as her sister took off down the hall without her. She was beginning to wonder how much that Malfoy thing had shaken her?


Lucius went to his first class feeling less than satisfactory. Day two of their bet and he had Narcissa hating him. It was ridiculous. Rodolphus couldn't help but rub it in his face the whole class saying how now it would be so easy for him to win the bet with Narcissa hating Lucius. Lucius was now the new laughing stock of the group, even Dolohov was regretting betting on him. He was going to have to try extra hard to win Narcissa's heart now. He wasn't about to lose to Rodolphus he just couldn't.

For his second class that day, Lucius had a spare period where he could go to the common room and do homework. Of course, he never did homework, but it was nice to know he had that option. Lucius decided today he would just sleep in his room and hope that the morning he had just faced was nothing but a dream. He got to his room and barely took off his shoes before collapsing onto his bed and staring up at the ceiling.

"Rough day?" A voice asked.

"And its barely even started." Lucius replied not bothering to question the voice.

"I saw, in fact, the whole school saw what happened this morning." The voice commented. Lucius was now curious whom he was talking to; he lifted his head up slightly to see his roommate, Severus Snape, sitting on his own bed reading a textbook. Apparently he had a free period too, but he didn't spend it hanging out in hallways with his mates. Lucius wasn't even sure if Severus had any mates.

"Yeah well, it's safe to say I officially ruined any chances I had with Narcissa Black." Lucius grumbled rubbing his hands against his face. Severus nodded his head in understanding.

"You probably shouldn't have been so persistent. Narcissa Black is a girl that hates typical boys." He explained as if it was simple. "If you really want her, you have to be everything that she likes." Lucius sat up straight and looked at his roommate.

"That's it!" He smiled clapping his hands together. "Snape you're a genius!" Severus shrugged quirking his lip into a small smile. "But how do I know what all she likes and doesn't like?"

"Girls always have diaries." Severus suggested.

"Narcissa? Keeping a diary? That hardly sounds like her style."

"Well I'm not all that experienced on the matter, but any girl I know has one." Lucius wondered what girls Severus actually knew, but at this point he didn't care.

"Alright…" Lucius smiled. "Snape, you're going to help me out."

"How?"

"You and I are going to get that diary!"

"What?" Severus asked, knocking his book to the ground by accident. "Why me?"

"Because it was your idea."

"I…!" Severus stopped in his tracks and shook his head. "Alright, what are you planning?"
