After finding out what I am Sev and Mione decided to put me through tests to see how much control over my new appendages I had.

"Come on Harrie you love to fly just try and flap for us"

"But Mione I can't not here if I do go up I'd hit the ceiling or hurt one of you guys." She looks up speculatively.

"Ok outside then to the garden" she turns on her heel and walks out. Grumbling about being a guinea pig for over excitable bookworms I follow.

Heading out the back door i notice that the garden is little more than a huge patch of dead grass and wild overgrown plants. *still have some work to do I guess* I make my way over to her and at her expectant look I sigh spreading my wings out. I'm not really sure why I don't want to try this I mean it would be awesome to fly like dray does but if I can't... I don't want that hope gone..

*this is stupid come on* I mentally scold myself. Gathering my courage I close my eyes and push my wings into a hard downward flap.

Feeling wind picking at my clothes and rushing past my face I open one eye. *holy shit* looking around I find I'm about the height of the second floor but I'm starting to descend. Not wanting to drop so soon I do a small experimental flap causing me to raise up a bit.

"Your doing great Harrie try thinking about how Hedwig flies and try mimicking it" Hermoine calls from below. Looking down I nod to her I manage to keep hovering with little flaps every now and again.

*Hedwig glides allot flapping occasionally I think it's got something to do with the air...* picturing what Hedwig looks like in flight I assemble myself in a similar position. *Arms in, legs together, wings out and flap* I do three strong flaps and the hold my wings out to catch the air. Letting out a whoop of happiness as I glide the length of the garden.

As I get close to the end of the garden I instinctively lean to my right banking round before I crash. In my shocked state I notice I'm coming in to the ground too fast so I raise the front of my wings and flap a few times to slow me down. It works but instead of landing on my feet I tumble into a roll ending up in a heap of limbs and feathers.

"Well done Harrie!" Hermione exclaims excitedly "sure your landing needs allot of work but you looked so natural up there"

"Yeah great" I groan "I think i've bruised everything."

"Oh pish you can't have landed that hard."

"Gee thanks for the sympathy" I get up gingerly and dust myself off. "No more tests please I just want a nap"

"But.." She looks at my expression before nodding "ok but you should practice."

My ears twitch as I hear something behind me, whirling around I see sev grinning proudly. "What?"

"You heard that half way down the garden and you flew extremely well for a beginner" hearing the pride in his voice I can't help but blush. "Come on in Remy wants to serve lunch before Hermoine and Ginny have to go."

"I wish you didn't have to go back so soon. Send Hedwig if things get too bad won't you?" Ginny told me, I just nod feeling guilty about lying to them.

"Make sure your glamours are good before you go back and avoid them as much as possible." Rolling my eyes I hug them.

"Yes mum I'll see you both soon on the train, I'd um prefer not to sit with Ron if that's ok I'll find another compartment if necessary I don't mind."

"Oh Harrie I doubt I could sit with him for that length of time either personally I feel sorry for gin and her brothers having to put up with him for the next few weeks."

"And hey I'm sure Luna and Colin wouldn't mind you sitting in my compartment."

"But gin Colin's you know, with me and the club, and that stupid camera..."

"Oh yes sorry forgot about his obsession with you and you 'natural grace and beauty' where he got that from I'll never know your the least lady like girl in Gryffindor."

"Oi!"

"I'm sure he wouldn't mind sitting with Alex and Dante when he's not stalking you they are great friends possibly cause they have their obsession in common. Anyway it'll be fine."

"Ok bye you guys I'll see you soon" I hug them before they floo home with a wave.

"Why did they have to go before six?"

"Because we have some friends coming I believe you know them." I look at them curiously *who could...* the clock begins to chime the hour and the floo roars into life and Lucius steps out followed by Narcissa and Draco.

"Punctual as always I see" sev mutters and he shakes Lucius' hand. I go to say hi but we all stop when Draco's wings spread wide.

"Calm down Draco what's wrong you were fine a second ago" Narcissa insists.

"Perfect so perfect" he mumbles turning she follows his gaze.

"Oh my it's definitely her?" He glares at her sharply "of course it is forget I asked." Looking around I find only Siri looking confused everyone else is staring at me.

"Ummm ok wanna tell me what just happened?"

"It appears Draco has found his mate" Lucius states frankly.

"Huh?... Wait me? But I can't be"

"Of course it can and it is" he replies sharply.

"Bu..."

"Do you not want me?" His voice sounds sad.

"Me your sure?" He nods dejectedly *he wants me... Me!*

"Absolutely positively sure that I'm your mate?" He nods beaming I run at him, catching me on reflex he stares at me wide eyed.

"What are you doing?"

"Hugging you if it wasn't obvious" I tease.

"Bu-but"

"But nothing I'm yours said so yourself"

"You want that?"

"Have for a long time" picking me up he whirls us around and kisses my forehead.

"Come on let me look at you" setting me down at arms length he studies me.

"Nice wings Harrie can you fly?" I nod "tried it out earlier didn't land very well" I mumble.

"We can practice together" he says as he reaches up and rubs an ear causing me to purr happily. He smiles and uses the other hand to move my hair.

"Your ears have completely changed location how interesting"

I scowl "I'm not a science project dray stop looking at me like that."

Looking amused at my attempt to bat his hands away.

"Your eyes look much prettier without glasses."

I can't seem to stop the blush rising in my cheeks.

"Any other changes?" I flick my tail up in front of my wing "ah yes how could I forget" he runs the end between his fingers.

"Like it?"

"Of course i do you look beautiful. What are you Harrie?"

"Oh the book said I'm a Felingelic apparently I'm extinct"

"Can I see this book?" I nod and turn to ask Remus to fetch it only to find were alone.

"Oooh kaaaay well it's up in my room" I take his hand and drag him up the stairs.

"Well if you could kiss me now that would be good"

"Where is the fun in that though plus what's the hurry I'm not going anywhere"

"I know sorry I've just been waiting for you all summer the dreams weren't enough, the veela in me wants to at least do something towards keeping you."

"Hmm anything else you can think of?"

"Not really maybe we should go downstairs and distract me?"

"Kay" I turn to leave stroking my tail down his chest before skipping off.

Draco stands frozen for a beat before running after me.

I skid to a halt in the doorway to the kitchen giggling causing the adults to look up from their conversations only to see me be tackled by dray.

"You know that's not fair"

"Tough anyway what are we all doing?"

"We were just wondering if we should serve dinner up actually but as your both here sit" Remus says before heading to the oven and levitating two big dishes over to the table. We find our seats between Narcissa and Sirius.

"Having a nice birthday so far Harrie?" Asks Lucius.

"Best one so far but I don't really know how we're going to top this next year" I say tilting my head in Draco's direction and blushing "plus it's been nice not being at the Dursley's for my birthday" everyone's eyes darken at that but they put big smiles back on soon enough.

Over Remus's lasagne we catch up on each others summers, apparently instead of going to France like they normally do the Malfoy's went to Italy for their holiday. Dray excitedly told me about the magical ruins and the ice cream or gelato that's so much better than Floreans's. His parents also were sickeningly all over each other for the entire trip which was the only downside.

After dinner and cake I got plonked down on the couch and presented with presents.

"I technically have another one for you but I didn't know I'd find you today so you'll have to wait for it, but this is for you" dray said pushing a purple and silver box into my lap.

Nestled inside is a glass hanging decoration for my room with butterflies swooping up in a spiral.

"It's beautiful Dray thank you" I kiss his cheek making him blush.

"These two are from both of us dear we hope you like them" Narcissa hands me two wrapped presents tied together with a sparkly ribbon.

The smaller box contained a bracelet with clear red and black gems and the large held a pair of black leather strappy heels about four inches in height.

"Oh wow thank you guys but you really didn't need to get me these they look expensive"

"Only the best for you so be quiet and enjoy" Lucius told me.

Nodding a try the shoes on, I wobble a little getting up but from there it seems to go ok.

"How do I look?" I ask biting my lip self consciously.

"Sexy" dray tells me forgetting about our audience. Going bright red I glare at him getting a sheepish but unrepenting look in return. I can't help but feel very pleased at his response though.

Sitting back down I vow *I'm gunna practice in them in case he takes me out on a date* I place them back in their box carefully.

"Sevy how much longer can they stay?" I ask him with pleading eyes.

"Don't look at me like that, they can stay as long as they wish no ones due to come here tonight so it's safe." I squeal "ooo what should we do I've got lots of movies or we could have a sort of party down here I can set up my player so we can dance?"

"Dancing sounds fun but I'm not sure if our boys will agree" Narcissa tells me in a conspiratorial whisper "I doubt they could keep up with us my dear perhaps we should do something more at their speed."

Their backs stiffen at the challenge. "Now cissy dear I'm sure we can take a few spins on the floor for our birthday girl."

Beaming I set up the music.

-Sway by the pussycat dolls starts playing-

I turn to find dray offering his hand "May I have this dance?"

Blushing I just nod, immediately getting whisked off into a sort of ballroom dance.

About an hour later we all collapse on to the sofas laughing. I had at least two dances with each of them the last being a slow dance with dray.

"It's getting kind of late and the birthday girl looks like she's trying not to fall asleep so I think we will take our leave maybe we can come over again before they go back to school." Said Lucius.

"Mm not tired" I mumble sleepily "thank you for coming though I had a fantabulous birthday see you soon dray I kiss his cheek." We say our goodbyes and they step through the floo.
