Marriage Bliss?

A/n Here is the next chapter. I'm sorry for the long wait. Real life got in the way. Anyways I hope you all like it and now on with the story.

Chapter 29

Pansy let out a sigh as she packed the rest of her stuff. As of yesterday, June 30th 2007, she was no long the young Lady Malfoy but back to being the young Lady Parkinson.

Now she was moving onto the next chapter in her life. She would soon be married to both twins. That would not happen for a short while. She was going to let the ink dry on the divorce papers before she got married again, so to speak.

Yes she was happy to finally have her dream guys but at the same time she was leaving the only life style she knew for one that was unknown to her. She would be marring into a class lower then her own. She would be marring into the working class.

Yes she knew she would have to help out at their joke shop. She didn't mine it but it was something she would have to get used to.

Because Draco gave back her dowery then some, Pansy knew she could help out that way with the joke shop. Pansy wasn't scared that they wanted her for only the money she would bring into the marriage.

No Pansy's biggest fear was that she would disappoint the twins. Or that they would not want her after she married them. That they only wanted her while she was still married to Draco. She knew these were silly fears but she still had them.

Then there was her son Scorpius. He was still very young so he was still confused by all this. He didn't understand why his mamma and daddy were breaking up. Pansy knew that once he got older he would understand. But she did try to explain things to him.

She and Draco had talked about their son. They would share custody of him. She would get him for the first six months of the year and Draco the last six months. They would share all holidays and his birthday. Of course Scorpius could decide if he wanted to at each home when he wanted to. Like if he was staying with Pansy but wanted to spend time with Draco then he could or vice versa.

They also talked about punishment. If he was being punished at one home then the punishment would transverse over the other home. If one parent ground him for a week and went to the other parent's home then the ground would still be in place until it was over.

Pansy was pulled out of her thoughts as she let out a sigh then looked to the doorway. She saw Narcissa standing there.

"Can I help you?" Pansy asked wondering why her ex-mother-in-law was standing there.

"No just came to see how you were doing." Narcissa said as she walked into the room.

"Fine. The house elves packed up just about everything. There were a few things I wanted to pack myself. Just got done with packing it all." Pansy said as she watched Narcissa. "Some things on your mind." Pansy simply stated.

Narcissa gave a nod as she sat on the bed. "I'm jealous."

"Jealous?" Pansy asked. She was shocked to hear this.

"Of you and what you're getting to do. Of how understanding Draco is and the fact he's letting you go." Narcissa said as Pansy sat down next to her.

"See mine and Lucius' marriage was an arranged marriage. We didn't love each other. No we knew who each other was, after we did go to school together and were in the same house, but we were hardly even friends. I had my circle of friends and he had his.

I never wanted to be married to Lucius because I was already in love with someone else. Well two people, like you dear." Narcissa said without looking at Pansy.

"So it was no wondered that soon after we were married I try to leave him and be with the two I loved and loved me back. I tried many times to leave but each time he was able to drag me back. Sometime he would literally drag me back.

The last time I try to leave was shortly after Draco was born." Narcissa said as she looked to the door but not seeing it but seeing the past.

"I was in the hallway close to the front door. I was only a few feet away from it when Lucius should up with his wand drawn, at me. So I thought. He had it pointed at our son that was in my arms. He had told me that if I try to run again he would kill Draco, knowing that he was my only weakness.

I had frozen at those words. It was long enough for him to use the Summoning Spell on Draco, ripping him from my arms to his. I knew that before I could take a step towards him that Draco would be dead. So I willing stayed." Narcissa said as she was snapped out of past at hearing Pansy gasp.

"He was willing to kill Draco if you left?" Pansy asked. She was shocked to hear far Lucius was willing to go to get what he wanted.

Narcissa gave a nod to this. "He didn't want a weak woman raising his heir and ruining him. Who knows how Draco may have turned out without Lucius around him?"

"But Draco is nothing like Lucius." Pansy said as she kept watching Narcissa.

"No Pansy he is. He may not be an exact copy of his father. But Draco does many things that are just like his father. They are both very cunning, sneaky, use anything means to get what they want. They don't care who they hurt or what they destroy, as long as they get what they want or who they want."

"But in other ways his not like Lucius." Pansy said. "As everyone in this house knows Draco loves Harry. But he knows not to go after him. Draco knows Harry is taken and loves his family.

If Draco did anything to break up that family Harry would hate him. Draco knows that so he would not do anything to jeopardize his friendship with Harry.

Then there is the way he interacts with our son. He knows what it's like to not have a father in his life unless it was to be punished and normally on dumb stuff. He knows what it is like to fear seeing his father growing up because he knew that it would mean he would in up in pain.

Draco said that he only knows the love of a mother. He said that growing up you were the only one that showed him love. He vowed when Scorpius was born to never be like his father and he hasn't been. He's a very good father to our son. Even you can see that." Pansy said. She only saw the good in her best friend. She saw he's good heart. She saw how loyal he was to those that matter to him.

Yes he was cunning and very sneaky but he was a Slytherin and a Malfoy.

As far for Narcissa she did see the same things that Pansy saw but see saw more of Lucius in her son. This made her somewhat cold to Draco. She was even somewhat jealous of her son and his, now, ex-wife.

She was jealous because Pansy was going to be able to be with the ones she loves. But she feared that Draco was only letting Pansy go because he had more reason then just because Pansy wanted to be with the twins. No there had more too it then just that.

But Narcissa was jealous that Draco let her go. Lucius had never let her go. Never let her be with the two that she had loved.

Narcissa would have to wait until death came for her to be with the two that she loved. Yes she did love her husband but she had been in love with two other people.

Narcissa had been waiting for death to take her ever since that horrible Halloween night. Yes Draco had been her only reason to keep going but now that her son was full grown and didn't seem to need her she was more than ready for death to take her.

Then there was a part of Narcissa that was angry with herself. She was angry that she had never been more hands on when Draco was growing up. If she had been then maybe he would not have turned out like so much like Lucius.

Pansy let out a soft sigh as she watched Narcissa. She could see the emotions flash through her eyes. Pansy then looked to the door way to see Draco standing there.

Seeing him there caused them both to jump some and snap Narcissa out of her thoughts. Neither of them had heard him coming to the room.

"So father tried to kill me as a baby." Draco simply stated. His voice was emotionless but they could see the pain and hurt in his grey eyes.

Narcissa got up as she walked over to stand in front of her son. Placing both hands on his shoulder she spoke. "I never wanted you to learn about the horrible night. I'm also sorry I wasn't more involved in your life as you grew up."

Draco looked into his mother's blue eyes before he gave her a smile. "I don't blame you for anything but I appreciate all that you did for me." Draco said before he turned and walked away, causing his mother's hands to fall from his shoulders.

The two ladies watch Draco walk away as they both knew he was upset over the information. But they knew there was really nothing they could do now.

Pansy just shook her head as she shrunk the rest of her stuff. After saying goodbye to Narcissa she left the manor and closed the chapter on this part of her life. She was ready for the next one.

Narcissa did watch her leave before she left the room herself. As she walked down the hall she saw Draco in Scorpius' room playing with him.

Narcissa knew her son vowed to never let Scorpius to have the same child hood he did and so far he was keeping that vow. But she wonders how long that would last. How long it would be until he started to push Scorpius away saying he was too busy to deal with him. Send him over to Pansy's place so he didn't have to deal with him unless it was to punish him.

As she walked away from the room she hoped that Draco would always kept his promise to his small child but fear he wouldn't. After all Draco was turning out to be more and more like Lucius. And Lucius never had time for Draco.

When Draco had left the ladies he was pissed at what he had heard about his own father. But at the moment he was too busy to deal with his father.

As he was thinking about that as he passed his son's room to see him playing with a house elf. He stopped only for a moment before he walked in and sent the house elf away.

Draco got on the floor to play with his son. After all he did vow to be there for him and he always would. No matter how busy he got he would never be too busy for his son.

A/N There is the next chapter. I do have the next one written so I'm off to post that one. See you all with it.
