"Oh! My child it's been too long!" Kristy, the old maid brings Elise into a tight hug.
"Kristy, Kristy I-" She tried to breathe.
"Get off of her you filfy muggle," Draco snarled, at Elise's side. Kristy let's go immediately, and stares Draco down.
"Hey, hey, chill out Malfoy." Elise touches his shoulder in a simple calming way. Draco takes a deep breath but backs down. "Where's Victor and Madelena?" Elise changes the subject.
"On the balcony, sipping their champagne," Kristy rolls her eyes, a smile on her lips, adding more wrinkles by her eyes.
"My," Elise plays being surprised, "we should join then shan't we?" she bowed her head towards Kristy, and Kristy takes their trunks as Elise motioned for Draco to follow her.
"Shant? What are you a well-educated muggle?" She huffs, but ignores him.
"Victor, Madelena," She bows her head, and clutches her coat tighter around her stomach.
"Elise, how many times must we tell you. Call us Mother and Father," Madelena was a brown curly varied woman, with layer of makeup covering wrinkles and anything that would make her look older.
"Yes, mother." She signs, and as her mother approaches, kisses both of her mother's cheeks.
"It's good to see you, darling." Victor stands as well and approaches his daughter, and nods, an she nods back.
"Father," She greeted.
"And who is that?" Her mother pointed rudley at Draco, as if she was speaking to one of her house servants.
"Er... well, I think we should all sit down and talk about that. Over tea perhaps?" She said nervesly.
"Nonsens, we have no time. You must meet your suitor right away, he suits you your beauty perfectly my dear," Her father lifted her chin with one of his long fingures.
"Dinner will be ready very soon, go unpack, and we will send for you when it is ready." Madelena rushes them out of the balcony and closes the door. Elise takes deep breath and unclasps her hand from her jacket.
"Your parents remind me of mine, " Draco chuckles, as Elise rolls her eyes and heads to her old room.
She stepped inside and soaked it in, it was as if nothing changed in the past four months, everything she had left behind was in the same place, no even dust dared to touch her things. She sat on the queen sized bed, her eyes closed, when a creeking sound awoke her. Of course, it was known other than Draco Malfoy, touching her things.
"What are you doing?" She asks standing and slapping his hand away from her framed quidditch poster that was signed by Victor Krum himself. "Get out,"
"Excuse me?"
"This is my house Draco," she reminded him. "You don't get to boss me around. In the flat we almost have to sleep in the same room, here there's so many extra rooms I can't even count." She looked around for a second, walked past him and into the hallway.
"Kristy?' She called.
"Yes, m'dear?"
"Could you please show this disrespectful, blond-haired-ferret to a room please, far from my room would be preferred." Elise smiles, turns to Draco pushes him out of the room and closes the door, to be alone to dream about the tall man from the elevator.
Elise pictured him perfectly, his golden hair, the way it curled over in only a couple of places on the top of his head an how his glasses fit his face perfectly, projecting his tree green eyes. The way his wand flew out imdetiatly when he saw she needed help. How he shoulders were squared and aligned.
And not to long after day dreaming about this mysterious man, did she fall into a well needed sleep.
