Hi! I'm back! So this chapter took me a long time to write because well, I don't really have a good excuse but I had to finish a book for school and I've been stressed because we got back to school on July 31st (which is Harry Potter's birthday and mine!) so I have to get everything done, get clothes and well…everything else…
So little story for you guys; I was marathoning Harry Potter this past weekend and I watching it and I heard my mom shout that the guests were here. I ignored her because I was sitting here, watching the sixth movie in a t-shirt that has multiple holes and pajama pants.
So, my best friend, Tanner, comes in an hour later without me knowing because I'm sitting in the couch crying my eyes out over Dumbledore and Draco Malfoy and he taps my shoulder and I scream out 'Leave me alone, Bellatrix!' And I punch him in the stomach. He leaves grunting in pain and I still don't know who I punched because of the tears in my eyes.
My mom came in later and turned off the screen as soon as they got to Malfoy Manor in Part 1. It turns out she forgot to tell me that Tanner and his family were coming over for dinner, so they had dinner without me and afterwards when Tanner came to find me I punched him in the gut. Needless to say I kept watching Harry Potter.
Okay crazy stories aside…Sorry its sort of sort! Chapter 6! Enjoy!
Tiffany –

Are you still coming to Diagon Alley with me before School? Write soon!
Hermione
I read the letter with amusement. It was Sunday, two days after the Friday. Hermione wanted to know every detail. I mean it was my first kiss. I shook my head as I put the letter in the envelope, sat it in a drawer, and closed it. I put my elbow on my desk and my head fell into my palm.
I glanced at the clock. 10:30 pm. I should have been in bed. I shuffled over to my bed and picked up the book Draco had lent me. I was only fifty pages from the end. I read and read and soon I was finished. I carefully put the book down and turned off my lamp. I would mail the book back tomorrow.
My father woke me up at 8:30. I sat up and yawned. He had woken me by tickling my feet. "Dad, why are we up so early?" He looked to my clock. "Mr. Malfoy and I have business to attend to all day and tomorrow, and we are meeting at Malfoy Manor at 9:15. I have worked it out with Narcissa, so you will be staying with them today and tomorrow. I will be downstairs. Be ready and pack a small bag. Hurry."
I watched as he left the room. I was spending today and tomorrow with Draco. I threw back my blankets and sprung out of bed. I feed Aaron and went into my wardrobe. I grabbed a messenger bag and put in a pair of jeans, a black t-shirt, a black dress that went to my knees, black and white dotted shorts, and a tank top. I chose to wear jeans and a mint green sweater with three-quarter sleeves. I grabbed some flats and slipped them on. I ran to my dresser and stuffed the book in my bag and after I brushed my hair up into a high ponytail I stuffed the brush in the bag too. After my teeth had been brushed, I rushed down stairs.
My father and I apperated and there it was. The Manor. We walked up to the door and it swung open. I was yet again speechless at the beauty of the home. "Tiffany?" I turned and saw my dad and Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy. I stepped closer. "Hello, it's good to see you again."
The Malfoys greeted me and soon my father and Mr. Malfoy were gone. Mrs. Malfoy led me up the stairs and to a door.
"This will be your room, dear. And that is Draco's." She pointed to the door right in front of mine. I opened the door and laid down my bag and followed her back to the dining room. She said that the family had already had breakfast so I had a piece of toast. She called for Draco after I was finished.
He didn't look surprise to see me. Mrs. Malfoy started to walk to a door. "Draco, I'll be in my office if you need me." She entered the room and shut the door, leaving us alone. Draco gave me smile. "Did you finish the book yet?" I smiled and nodded. "It's in my bag." He led the way up the stairs and stood in the corridor. "Where is your room?" I led him to it. "Right across from yours."
I opened the door and went to the bed were my bag lay. I took the book out of it a held it out to Draco. "I really liked it. I like his writing, Charles Dickinson's that is." Draco took the book from my hands. "Well I'm glad you liked it because, come on." He grabbed my wrist and we went running through the house, and down to the library. He pulled me over to the muggle books and placed the book back.
Draco said I could look so I ran my hand over the spines. I didn't notice Draco was gone until I turned to ask him something and he wasn't there. "What is…Draco? Draco?" I glanced around and someone covered my eyes as I turned back to the books. "Hold out your hands." Draco commanded. I held them out. He placed something in them and slowly uncovered my eyes. In my hands was a small rectangle shape thing with wrapping. I gasped.
"Draco, what is it?" He stepped around from behind me and came into my line of vision. "Call it an early birthday gift, Tiffany. But don't open it until you're in your room." I nodded. "Okay." I went to my room and put my gift down and he showed me around the house some more before a house elf came and found us to take us down to lunch.
It was awkward at first but soon Mrs. Malfoy told Draco to show me around the grounds outside. We walked out the front door and I breathed in the air. "It's so nice out here." Draco agreed. "Yeah, it does feel good. I followed him around to the line of trees and I leaned up against one, closed my eyes and tilted my face upwards. The sun rays warmed my face and I sighed. "Tiffany?"
I opened my eyes and titled the face downwards. "Yes?" Draco had hints of pink in his cheeks. He was blushing. "I wanted to apologies for what happened in the library last Friday. I shouldn't have do-" I interrupted him. "You don't have to apologies unless you have a girlfriend." He gave me a confused look. "I thought you went with Potter?"
I gave him a small laugh and shook my head. He thought I was dating Harry. "No, Draco. I'm not dating Harry. Besides, between you and me, I think her likes Ginny." He gave a laugh and looked into the trees. "So, Draco, can I climb this tree, or will your mum get mad?" He made a gesture. "Go ahead." I smiled and turned around. I lifted myself up and sat on the lowest branch. Draco, now, was a few inches shorter than I was. I tilted my head in question. "What about you?"
"What about me?" Draco replied, looking up to meet my eyes. "Are you currently dating anyone?" Draco blushed and looked down at the dirt. "No." I nodded and looked up into the tree. "Why?" I swiftly turned my gaze downward and found Draco squinting at me. "Why what?" He shrugged. "Why do you ask?"
It was my turn to shrug. I really asked because I may or may not have wanted date Draco. I looked back down into his gorgeous gray eyes. "I wanted to know. If you know about me, I think I have a right to know." He laughed. "So, you don't want to date anyone yet?"
I shook my head. "No, I just haven't found the right guy yet."
"Tiffany?" I looked up and found him closer to me than he was before. "Would you go out with a Malfoy?" I nodded just before his lips met mine. I don't know how long it was until we pulled away but it started to rain. We broke apart laughing and he grabbed my hand and we ran back to the house, but by the time we got there we both were soaked. Mrs. Malfoy stood in the parlor as we entered. She eyed our hands and then met our eyes. "Go upstairs, dry off, and get ready for dinner." We nodded and scurried up the stairs.
I let go of Draco's hand when we got to the doors. "See you later, Draco." Before I could turn away he gave me a light kiss and disappeared to his room.
I smiled softly and entered mine. I found towels and dried myself and my hair. I put of the black dress and pulled my hair back into a bun. A few short curls escaped and I smiled at myself. I slipped my feet into my flats and sat on the bed. I grabbed the package and started to open it. I finally got the wrapping off and found a book. I flipped it over to see the title. A Tale of Two Cities. I smiled. Draco had given me a muggle book…and a few kisses.
Okay, how was it? Sorry for not updating sooner! Please Review! ~ a hunter of artemis here.
