Howler

Chap 8-Draco's P.O.V.

I had just walked into the great hall,when I saw Blaise waving a letter at me.I took a seat next to him as Raven,my family owl nibbled my toast.I ripped open the letter.It was from my parents.

Dear Draco,

HOW DARE YOU NOT WRITE TO US!THERE IS A MARRIAGE LAW AND WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO OUR DAUGHTER IN LAW IS GOING TO BE! Hello Draco.It is your mum.I am sorry for your fathers attitude.He is.... angry.But I agree with him.Please write back to us with Raven.She misses you.Also,are you coming home for Christmas? DRACO I AM NOT DONE YELLING AT YOU.I will continue on a seperate letter.Your mother keeps snatching this one away.

Love,

Lucius and Narcissa

I roller my eyes.They acted like best friends instead of a married couple.Imagine 2 people who have been close friends their whole life and then fell in love.That's what they're like.I took some parchment from my bag and a benpil.Hermione introduced them to me.They are AMAZING.You don't have to keep dipping them in ink.Instead,you have to sharpen them with a box shaped thing whenever the black stuff inside breaks or falls out.Plus,they don't smear like ink.They are a wonderful muggle invention.

I began writing.

Dear mum and dad (my parents are acting more like parents and less like guardians)

I was.....surprised when I got your letter.I would tell you who it is,but I don't know how you will react.Instead,I will tell you about her.She is a Gryffindor(No,you don't owe Theo's dad 10 galleons)

She is smart and beautiful.i have liked her since 3rd year when she-NEVERMIND.Nothing happened in 3rd year.She DEFINITELY didn't punch me or anything.that would be riddikulus.For your last hint:You know her.

Love,

Draco

P.S. Blaise asked me to ask you if mum can send anymore of her homemade cake.He loves it.I will also ask if she(my soulmate) will want come over for the holidays.I don't think she will say yes,but I will try.

I sent off the letter and grabbed a piece of toast.Breakfast was almost over and I NEEDED to eat.

Narcissa's P.O.V.

I waited for a response to my letter.Or rather,Lucius's letter,as he told me when he walked into the bedroom.I heard a tap at the window.It was Raven!I ducked under lucius as he tried to hug me.He is such an idiot.He think that I will hug him after he steals MY letter.I claimed it.Who cares if he wrote on it first.

I opened the window and Raven dropped a letter into my hand and soared off to the owlery.

I opened the letter. I read and threw it to Lucius"Catch"I said as he scrambled to grab it.He grabbed and then dropped it.He clutched his finger and I saw 1 drop of blood on his finger from a paper cut.I rolled my eyes."Stop being such a baby"I chastised him.He sucked his finger before picking up the letter as thought it was some lethal snake.He opened it and read it.He passed it back to me.I put the letter up on the shelf that we reserved for raco's letters.Over the course of 7 years he sent me....15 letters.

I yelled for my house elf,Twinky.I asked her to get me a red anvelope.my darling son was about to receive a gift in the form of a howler.I smirked and began talking.I had some bets to make.

_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_^_*_

As I was leaving the great hall,Raven entered and dropped a scarlet letter on my head.I looked at it and I gulped.It was a Howler.It smoked and the voice of my mum filled the great hall.

DRACO YOU BETTER TELL ME WHO YOUR PARTNER IS.I HAVE A FEELING THAT IT'S HERMIONE GRANGER.I TRULY HOPE IT IS.WE COULD USE SOME BRAINS IN THE FAMILY.IT SEEMS TO HAVE MISSED YOU.HOW COULD YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN TO TELL ME WHO YOUR PARTNER WAS.AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE AMOUNT OF LETTERS YOU HAVE SENT ME OVER THE YEARS.7 YEARS AND YOU SEND ME 15 LETTERS.MOST CHILDREN SEND 15 PER YEAR!

BACK TO THE TOPIC. DRACO,YOU NEED TO TELL ME WHO IT IS.I HAVE SOME IMPORTANT BETS PLACED AND I NEED MORE INFORMATION TO PLACE MORE.DON'T TELL ME OUTRIGHT WHO IT IS.MAKE IT LIKE A CODE.REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT HERMIONE IS YOUR PARTNER,ASK FOR HER HELP IN WRITING THE LETTER.

Love you,

Mum

I looked over at Hermione.She looked like she was holding in laughter.I sighed and looked around the hall.Everyone had similar expressions.I glared around."Alright,you can laugh"I said waiting for everyone to start.And there it was.I walked back to the dorm.classes for today were cancelled because you needed to to get to know your partner.The only class for today was a Marriage Law class where you learnt skills for being a married couple and parents.

I wrote back to mum using the benpil.(or was it pencil?)

Dear mum,

You didn't need to send a Howler.A normal letter is fine.She is telling me to write a description:

Her eyes are a captivating brown.

Her hair is a honey kind of color.

She is very smart and she helped defeat Voldemort.

She is a Gryffindor.

She is not a pure blood.Thank god.

I fell in love with her in the 3rd year when she-NOPE NEVERMIND.

That's all I can say.

I was about to finish the letter when I remembered Christmas break."Hermione"I asked carefully."Do you wanna come to my house for Christmas break?You don't have to.I'm just asking if you want to.". "Okay"she said after a few minutes of thinking.I nodded in surprise and continued the letter.

I sent it off with Raven who was resting on Hermione's arm.

I turned around and looked at Mia.She let me call her that because I wanted to call her a special nickname.We sat on the couch and I looked at her.The way her eyes were so captivating that you could get lost in them forever.they looked like a chocolate caramel swirl.i leaned closer and kissed her softly.She kissed back and I wrapped my hands around her waist.Her lips were so soft.

The door burst open and I heard someone yell "MY EYES".The voice sounded suspiciously like...
