" Cissa, Dumbledore says that this is the only way for him to be safe. The Dark Lord would never think of looking for him there. You must consider letting him stay there for as long as it takes. Or at least over the summer."
Narcissa stopped her pacing and let out a sigh, If it will protect my son, then I will agree. As long as he is safe..then I am willing to send him there."
Dumbledore had apparated in front of a two story house. He walked up the stairs to their porch and knocked on the door.
The door opened revealing none other than Wendell Granger.
"Oh. Hello Albus, long time no see. How are you.." he asked.
"Hello Wendell", the elderly wizard replied.
"My, excuse my manners, come in.. come in.." Wendell exclaimed and opened the door wider.
Dumbledore entered while Wendell closed the door in after. The duo walked through the hallway into the lounge room.
" Please, sit. I'm going to call Monica down. She's upstairs."
"Alright, shall we call him in now?" Narcissa asked.
"Yes. Call him."
"Draco! Come into the lounge area please!."
The door opened and Draco walked in. "You called for me moth- Professor Snape? What are you doing here?"
"Sit down boy, your mother and I need to discuss something with you."
He raised his eyebrow at his mother then sat down on the couch.
Narcissa looked at Snape, who simply nodded, then looked back at her son.
"Draco, you know that the Dark Lord is.."
"Yes mother. The Dark Lord is searching for me."
"Yes, well, just know that whatever we tell you right now.. It is only for your protection."
Draco stiffened, "Mother, what's going on? What is it?"
Narcissa looked at Snape who continued the discussion for her.
"Dumbledore has arranged that you should stay in muggle London for the summer."
"What!"
"I'm not finished." He snapped.
"What could be bloody worse than staying in bloody muggle London?" Draco retorted.
"Draco. Your language!." His mother scolded.
Snape cleared his throat then spoke, "You will be staying in muggle London with Miss Granger and her family."
"I'm what!" the blonde screamed as he stood from his seat. "No! I am not, absolutely not living with Granger for a whole summer! Dumbledore has gone completely nutters if he thinks he will let me stay with Granger!"
"Draco, that is enough." His mother scolded for the second time.
"But mother-"
He was cut off by Snape, "I suggest you go pack your things Mr. Malfoy. You leave on Saturday."
"This Saturday?"
"No.. Next year's Saturday." The Professor said sarcastically.
"Dear, go on and pack your things.."
"Mother.." Draco whined.
"Now!"
"Oh, hello Albus.." Monica greeted as she entered the lounge room. "I am sorry, Hermione isn't here at the moment."
"No. Its alright. I want to keep this a secret from her." The wizard smiled.
"Okay.." she said then sat next to her husband.
"What can we help you with Albus?"
"If it would be alright.. If you can keep watch on a certain student of ours from Hogwarts.."
"Like let him live here?" Monica asked.
"Yes. If just for this summer. See, he is in hiding from the Dark Lord. I think Hermione has told you about him."
Wendell nodded, "Yes, she has told us about him. Very evil, if I may add."
The headmaster nodded, "He is searching for this particular student. He and his mother have been at Hogwarts ever since school has ended to try and get away from him. Alas, even Hogwarts isn't much safe at the moment."
"Oh my, well, you have done so much for us. And for Hermione.." Monica said. " I guess keeping an eye on this him is the least we can do."
"When will the student be coming?" her husband asked.
"We will be coming this Saturday, if its alright."
The two nodded.
"Thank you both." Dumbledore said and smiled at the couple. "But please, don't tell Hermione about this little arrangement of ours. It will be best if we tell her on the day.. A surprise if you will." He chuckled.
"Very well." Monica replied and stood from her seat, "Would you like tea?"
"Oh no.. I must be on my way..Thank you though."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes..Yes.. I must be going.. Thank you again." He got up from his seat .
Well, that's the chapter.
