Hello again everyone! Hope March is treating you well and everything is going well for you! I remembered about 10 minutes agi that I needed to update so here I am... updating whilst I remember! Oh if you're wondering about face claims Lucius and Draco are the actors who portray them in the movies, in Hidden Chlid Narcissa is the movie Narcissa but in this story and my others I base her on Natalie Dormer, Sarah Gadon or Blake Lively (do not make me pick one over the other! lol)

Lots of love,

Finally Belonging Somewhere-Part 43:

The next morning and Aurora began to wake up and for a minute she couldn't remember where she was and then she suddenly sat up and moved as far away as she could from the witch. She didn't know her and that scared her.

"Aurora it's OK. I'm Priscilla Malfoy and I won't hurt you," Priscilla said and watched as Aurora heard the name Malfoy and looked at her.

"You know daddy?" Aurora asked, "how do you know my daddy? You have the same name as him."

"I'm his mother so I'm Draco's grandmother and yours seeing as you are like my son and Narcissa's daughter," Priscilla said, "mummy wants you to meet her by the Christmas tree in the entrance hall. Now up you get and lets get you dressed."

Aurora watched her. She didn't trust her fully but she was Lucius' mother so she climbed out of her bed and went over to her clothes and began to get dressed.

Priscilla watched as the girl began to get dressed and that was when she could see just how thin Aurora was and why she could still be carried everywhere. She and her husband along with Cygnus and Druella knew of Lucius and Narcissa's plans to adopt the girl. Whilst she'd rather they find their missing child Priscilla also know that Aurora needed Lucius and Narcissa as much as they needed her.

"I'm ready," Aurora said disturbing Priscilla from her thoughts and the older witch looked her over before leading her downstairs to find Narcissa.

"Ah Priscilla! There you are," Narcissa said, "it's a quick breakfast before Miss Charlotte and Aurora follow me around for the day as I make sure the last minute things are sorted," she said before asking her elf to lead Aurora and Charlotte to the family dining area for breakfast.

As soon as the girls were out of earshot Narcissa turned to her mother-in-law.

"How was she this morning?" she asked.

"So scared when she first saw me and moved right to the back of her bed but once I said Malfoy she seemed to listen to me and let me help her," Priscilla said.

"She's still getting used to my mother and now she's meeting you and Abraxas and my father on a day that her social anxiety will be tested," Narcissa replied before she headed to the dining room and watched as everyone was sat down and eating already.

"Sorry we started without you," Lucius said as Narcissa sat down next to him and he kissed her softly making sure Aurora saw.

"It's a busy day. I was just speaking to your mother," Narcissa as she smiled into the kiss and then began to eat. She watched Aurora and knew she'd have to keep an eye on the young witch.

"So we are looking after Aurora instead of being announced?" Druella asked.

"Yes. Priscilla and Abraxas will be announced because they are Malfoys; Draco will be as well but not Aurora. She'll probably scream or faint so I need her with people I trust," Narcissa said, "speaking of family where are Father and Abraxas?"

"Never you mind," Druella said, "eat and then off you go."

It was soon after that Narcissa was walking around with Charlotte and Aurora. Charlotte chatted away with Narcissa about the decorations and Aurora just remained silent as she walked around trying to take everything in. She was struggling with how the day was going and how big it was.

"Aurora…? Are you OK?" Narcissa asked after a while and Aurora just looked at her.

"Now you notice I'm not OK… I wish Charlotte wasn't here!" she said before pushing Narcissa back and running off.

"She doesn't mean it Charlotte," Narcissa said, picking herself up off the floor.

"She's scared. I understand Lady Malfoy," Charlotte said, "just go and find her."

Aurora ran straight for the library and ran in closing the door before she stopped and saw two wizards stood there and looked at her.

"Sorry," she said, "I didn't realise anyone was in here."

"Young lady this is…" one of them said sternly before being stopped and looked at Aurora.

"You're Aurora aren't you? I'm Abraxas Malfoy and this is Cygnus Black. I'm Lucius' father," he said before seeing Aurora backed right against the door scared.

"Stop Abraxas," Cygnus said as he clearly saw something in Aurora and hurried over to her and crouched down in front of her and stroked her cheek, "you remind me so much of Narcissa," he said before leading the girl over to the sofa and then calmed her down before Narcissa came bursting in and looked. She walked over to Aurora and sat down and pulled her onto her lap.

"I'm sorry Little Flower. I should have been listening to you and making sure you were ok," Narcissa said, ignoring the fathers as they watched before she got up and rested Aurora on her hip.

"She's so small. Did that orphanage do something to stop her growing?" Abraxas asked as Aurora rested her head on his daughter-in-law's shoulder.

"We don't know. The full medical test would be too much for her," Narcissa replied, "I keep looking for signs that something was done to her but I may not get it for a while yet. Now if you'll excuse me I'd like to show Aurora her dress," she said before hurrying out of the library.

She arrived in the master bedroom to see Dilly with Charlotte.

"Thank you Dilly. You may go," she said and Dilly disappeared.

Aurora watched as Narcissa got two things out of her enormous wardrobe and she smiled as she showed off her dress and Aurora gasped having never seen anything so beautiful in her life.

Narcissa watched before Aurora's hand moved to the smaller dress and she looked at Narcissa who simply nodded and then Aurora pulled back the cover and saw it. Her dress. She looked up at Narcisa before bursting into tears and Narcissa hurried to comfort her.

"It's OK to be overwhelmed at this," she said instantly, "you've never had anything like this before," she said and waited for Aurora to calm down, "do you like it?"

"Yes I love it," Aurora said, "it's just I've never had anything before," she said softly before she took another look at her dress and ran a hand over it and smiled softly as she felt the material.

"See it's just like mine," Narcissa said softly, "just as I promised you. There is one thing you cannot see and that is your tiara. Lucius has that under protection spells until you have to put it on."

Aurora nodded before she yawned softly and Narcissa lifted her into her arms and summoned the doll she'd given Aurora and the girl snuggled into her arms.

"Come Charlotte. I still need to check some final things over but she'll sleep in my arms," Narcissa said and made sure Aurora was settled before they walked around the Manor checking things over and eventually the time came to get ready. The only question on Narcissa's mind was how was Aurora going to cope?
