Hello all! Thank you for all those who gave me reviews! We're at chapter 6 and so much did happen last chapter I know. I'm trying to make the chapters longer but, not rushed just let me know if you think I'm moving too fast. Now I need to address something I'm thinking about it's going to be a shock factor but, you need to understand Leta her mother didn't tell her everything and there's a lot only she and a few others knew. There's so much you guys and Visenya do not know. So, just please do not start hating if you don't like what I bring in, I ask you to be open minded. We don't know everything her mother kept from her so, with that being said enjoy the chapter.

I'll be here waiting
Hoping, praying that
This light will guide you home
When you're feeling lost I'll leave my love
Hidden in the sun
For when the darkness comes

Now the door is open
The world I knew is broken
There's no return
Now my heart is not scared
Just knowing that you're out there
Watching me

So believe I'll be here waiting
Hoping, praying that
This light will guide you home
When you're feeling lost I'll leave my love
Hidden in the sun
For when the darkness comes – When the Darkness Comes- Colbie Caillat

"Dear Visenya,

We are having a great time in Egypt, we miss you and can't wait to see you! How have you been? What's Malfroy Manor like? Fred and I have always imagined dungeons, dragons and trap doors. Have you been writing to Harry? I know you're not best friends but, his relationship with his aunt and uncle are rocky there he could use the letters.

Yours truly,

George Weasley."

Enclosed was a parcel, and a note saying happy birthday. Inside I found cauldron cakes, I don't know how they knew this was my favorite but, I was grateful. I wrote George a quick response saying thank you and telling him I had kept in contact with Harry. Pushing myself away from my desk I got up and decided to shower. Ignoring the growing pile of letters in the drawer of my desk, as I left.

It was barely two weeks into break and I had been getting letters non-stop. I appreciated everyone's concern but, I just didn't want to talk to anyone. The one letter I wanted never came, the one where the ministry said, "we found your parents murderers." Or one from Dumbledore saying he could bring my family justice. I planned on not talking to anyone until Draco had convinced me otherwise. It was a few days ago after Narcissa and Lucius had gotten in a fight over me, I hadn't been doing anything. I spent most of my days in their garden or bedroom, Lucius felt I ought to be seeing someone while Narcissa insisted that would only upset me. She felt I was reacting perfectly normal to such a large amount of change and trauma, he dropped the matter after some persuasion.

I remained in the garden, no one ever came out here save for Draco when I was out here. He would bring food or often just sit out here with me and talk about random things. He came storming out here today though he tossed a handful of letters at me, I looked up at him. He growled "Here!" when I didn't do anything he grabbed my shoulders and shook me, I had to grab his shoulders to stop him. He pulled away "finally something!"

"what is your deal?" I spat at him, he threw his hands in the air "you are Visenya. You are my deal. Everyday your friends write, and you haven't so much as opened one bloody letter!"

I had stopped listening and went back to examining a new rose, he grabbed a few letters and began tearing them open he read aloud "Visenya, I hope you are doing well. None of us have heard from you. Please let us know you are alright." That was from Katie. "dear Belle I understand everything has been a shock to you but, please don't push us away." From Cedric. I started getting mad who was he to read my letters I tore them from his grasp "finally! Something, be angry be mad yell at me!"

I began picking up my letters and I turned from him to leave he grabbed onto my shoulders and cupped my face "feel something, please. I get it you lost your family but, we are still here. You have friends, friends who love you and are worried out of their minds. They are gone, nothing is going to bring them back, I wish they weren't but, they are. You are still here, and if you roll over and die then what?" I began to cry and tried to push him away "no, no you're not going to go hide. You think you can run from it but, you can't. You need to face this, you have to understand you are still here. You want to spend the rest of your life moping fine but, you don't drag your friends down with you! Those people give a damn about you, my mum and dad give a damn I –" he stopped, I hadn't seen so much color in Draco's cheeks before. I thought he was permanently fair skinned.

A choked sob escaped my throat, and he pulled me into a hug, he ran his fingers through my hair "it's okay to feel pain, it's okay to miss them. Just don't push us away." I cried into his shoulder. I didn't know this wasn't the first act of kindness Draco had shown me, I didn't know he had done so much for me my first year. It was Draco who collected my homework and had it delivered to me, I always assumed it was my friends. They had assumed I was such a Ravenclaw I would go back and collect it but, I didn't. It was him who suggested I stay with Andromeda, suggested they wait to tell me about his family, and who took grief from Lucius about my behavior.

I got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around me, I stepped outside and dashed across the hall to get to my bedroom. Draco having heard the shower stop came out of his room, he coughed and began to turn red as I rushed past him "sorry" I squeaked. He was very regimented, and I think me showering for too long threw off his schedule.

I went in my room, I had the towel still wrapped around me but, I was staring at my face. I had bags under my eyes, and I had lost more weight, the curves I had once noticed were slightly less noticeable. I was grateful for that, it drew too much attention. Running the brush through my hair one final time, and throwing on some dressier clothes, I headed downstairs. Narcissa was always dressed up as was Draco and I took this as a cue I should too.

I went downstairs to breakfast, Narcissa was in the kitchen with the house elves all walking around and past her. I saw no sign of Lucius and took this as a blessing, he was kind enough to let me stay here but, something about him made me on edge.

"now, have you checked the cookies? I don't want them to burn. Are you sure the elves were right? I want to make sure we have all her favorite, everyone answered Narcisa's questions faithfully, Draco saw me and nodded his head as in I should come in. I groaned jealous of guys ability to shower and dress quickly.

I entered the kitchen and Narcissa looked flustered "oh, I apologize darling. I was hoping everything would be done by the time you were up." I smiled in response, she touched her hand to her face and started dusting herself off. "oh, goodness look, at me. I'm a mess!" she came towards me and wrapped me in a dangerously tight embrace "Happy birthday, oh, fifteen. This is such an age for you." Gentler she touched my face "you look so much like her, she would have loved this. And in that spirit, Draco mind the kitchen for me, I need to get Visenya ready." I looked to Draco in a panic and he grinned and put the cookie in his mouth he had been eyeing earlier.

She led me upstairs to her room, Draco said he himself had never been in there, he didn't go to his parents unless instructed to do so. Their bedroom was as highly decorated as my room, except their room was much larger, and they had personal touches to it, I had most of my stuff still stuffed in a box in my closet. She instructed me to wait and she went to her closet, the closet appeared to be just as large as her bedroom. She came out wearing a nice black dress, it looked almost as identical as the others she wore but, this one was cut to her neckline instead of like a turtle dove. She went back in her closet and reemerged with a bag, she unzipped the bag and revealed a navy -blue dress. "navy looks very nice on you, I hope you will wear it tonight. We're not having a grand party just a few friends. I hope you like it." She began to fidget with her hands, a nervous habit I had not associated with her. "I- I know I will never be her but, know that I lost my sister, and I want to do right by you. I want you to have everything, you want." I might cry if I spoke, so I nodded and hugged her.

I wasn't moved by Narcissa's words, I was but, I was mostly about to cry because my mom would have fussed over my hair, bought me a dress, and made my favorites. She was trying though, she didn't know how to deal with this as much as I didn't either. Going behind her curtain, I slipped out of my clothes and into the dress. It was simple, a scoop neckline with inch wide straps that tied around my neck, and hugged my waist then flowed out like a handkerchief. I was uncomfortable wearing a dress, I hadn't done it often. The dress only came to the bottom of my knees. I didn't have any shoes that would match this either, hopefully I could just wing it and wear whatever.

"are you done darling?" a part of me wondered if Narcissa had truly wanted a daughter instead and settled for Draco. I stepped out from behind the curtain and immediately she was all over me, she had me go to her bathroom and wait for her. A few seconds later she came back with a champagne colored robe, "I bought you some clothes but, I didn't think you would like it." I didn't but, instead of voicing this instead I accepted gratefully. I wasn't mad at her, it had nothing to do with her, it was the fact my mom should be here. She should be buying me clothes, doing my hair, and throwing me a party. A house elf brought up a chair for me to sit in while Narcissa went to work on doing my hair and makeup.

After she declared me presentable I practically jumped out of the chair, and ran for the door. But her voice caught me "don't forget your shoes!" I turned around and took the box from her hands "thank you Narcissa, for everything." She clasped her hands together "I know nothing has been fair to you, I just wanted you to know you're family. I know we're not your family we can never be but, I will do what I can to be what you need." I nodded in response and left her room. I went downstairs to find Draco, he had to be in the kitchen eating more stuff he shouldn't be. The house elves moved out of my way, I didn't like them. Ok, well I wasn't use, to them, they were so polite and never spoke except in obedience. I bent down to one "excuse me have you seen Draco?" he bowed before responding "master Draco is in his bedroom, miss Black." I nodded making my way towards the garden, I had never been in Draco's bedroom and I didn't want to intrude or annoy him.

According to Narcissa it would be a small party, apparently a small party meant over three-hundred people. There were tents set up, Lucius had stayed by my side ever since the guest started arriving, he was introducing me to everyone. Also a few friends meant Draco's friends, I hadn't seen much of him he seemed to be in a bad mood every time I saw him. A couple had approached Lucius and he turned me away from a conversation with a rather alarmingly pink dressed woman. Her name was Delores or something, to me she looked like a bat with no ears.

"Visenya, these are some friends of mine. This is Alecto and Amycus, Carrow." They reminded me of crows ready to feast on anyone without warning. I didn't know what it was about them but, I didn't like them. The lumpy woman smiled at me "it's a pleasure" they shook my hands but unlike the other friends of Lucius they lingered. Amycus had done most of the talking but, Alecto spoke up finally "we're sorry to hear about your mother, she was one of the best. It's too bad about Sirius though." I opened my mouth about to ask a million questions and Lucius stopped me. I was hungry to know more, there are so few people who talk about her, and I wanted to know. I feel like I never knew her, and now that she's gone she took all her secrets with her. I was about to speak when Lucius hushed me, he pulled me close "they will be here after the party we have much to talk about but, not now. Draco!" he hollered over the crowd, I could see his white hair heading towards us, Lucius pushed me by the small of my back. "Draco, if you would introduce Visenya to some of your friends, I don't believe they've met." Draco took my arm and led me away, I looked back at Lucius he was smiling slightly, as if to reassure me. Who was Sirius?

So many people had promised to tell me about my mother and yet, they never did. I don't think they understood how much this meant to me. Why would anyone want her dead, why would they do that to my family? I was so lost in thought I hadn't noticed Draco didn't lead me to another part of the party, he was taking me inside. "but, I thought we were suppose, to meet your friends." I said half- heartedly. He snorted "my friends are inside" I let him lead me to one of their sitting rooms, yes, one of their sitting rooms. He introduced me to some of his friends, and we laughed, my mind was elsewhere though. Soon enough people were giving me gifts, most of these people had no idea who I was though. They sang to me happy birthday and then people were leaving, I stood by the door telling the guest goodbye and thanks. I saw the Carrows leaving and began to protest but, Lucius grabbed me arm "patience" he said under his breath.

I thanked Lucius and Narcissa for the party after they sent Draco and I up to our rooms. We were climbing the stairs when Draco tripped, I reached down to help him up when he pulled me closer and whispered in my ear "leave your window open" he picked himself up and went to his room. I made my way to mine, and changed my clothes. I opened the window after that, and waited for Draco but, he never came. Instead there was a knock on my door, two hours later, I threw the covers off me and rana cross the room. There at the door was Lucius, "come" was all he said, I followed. He led me downstairs to the living room, there was a fire place and he tapped on it, and it moved back. He gestured I go first and, so I did, there was a spiraling staircase and I followed it all the way to the bottom. There was another door, and he led me through it, behind there was a couch but, no one was there. He went to the mantle "sit, I'm going to tell you about your mother. What I tell you though you can never tell another soul." I did as I was told and listened intently as Lucius had finally told me who my mother was and why he believes she and my family was murdered.

Alright so there was this chapter, I know it probably dragged but, I went through some writers block. I'm struggling with fitting Visenya's story into this properly. I pulled a Rowling and planned the story out, I wrote up some chapters and realized I was missing a key element. I read a message about Visenya, and the writer felt they didn't know who Visenya truly was, behind the grief, and all this. Well, I wrote a bit she seemed carefree but, strong. I know from experience when things like this happen to someone, it becomes them. She can't get the answers from anyone, she doesn't know or understand. Putting that aside thank you for your reviews and support until next time!
