Chapter 112- Easter Break at the Malfoy Manor

A month after the quarterfinals game Easter break quickly skips around. Tonight the kids from Hogwarts who want to head home for the holiday get to leave. Draco and I had decided that since he is coming home he and I are going to visit his parents and tell them about our moving plans. Then after that is settled he and i would do to the Cultven Manor to see the damage on the building from the war. You would think these two tasks are simple but considering our lives who really knows how it will go. His parents while supportive really want their only child to take over the Malfoy Manor to legacy. On my side Molly is demanding to either see a ring on my finger or see has to see the house to make sure it's up to her standards. But her standards for my living conditions are a lot higher than her normal ones would be. Frankly I'm afraid Molly is gonna attempt to find a way to force us to stay with her at the burrow. I mean yeah since George went back to his flat and Bill and Fleur went home it wasn't as full as it has been in the past. Ginny, Harry, Hermione, Ron, Molly, Arthur, And I still felt like the house was at its max most of the time. Plus as much as I love Ginny I can not share a roll with her for the rest of my life.

"Hey Cultven when do you have to pick up lover boy?" Lee asks as he reaches the register as I sit on the counter. Since the normal customers were at school we mostly were working on owl orders. Even then it was pretty light at the moment.

"I have to be there to pick him up in an hour," I say to Lee, "I can still use your car right?"

"Yeah," he says tossing me the keys as George marches through with a thick purple liquid in a bottle. He shoves it in my face and smirks.

"Try it," He says. I take it from him and swirl it around. I smell a weak love potion and a stronger truth serum.

"What effect are you going for?" I ask him as I pass it to Lee.

"Doesn't matter," George says, "someone drink up."

"Not it," I scream placing a finger on nose. Lee groans loudly.

"It's your turn," Lee says.

"No it isn't remember I ate the candy for green spots," I say to him, "it's your turn down."

"Come on Lee. She's seeing her boyfriend tonight. Take one for the team," George says. I smirk as he groans again. He takes a drink from the bottle and gags loudly. George has been in a funk since he lost his twin. To be fair Fred typically came up with the ideas. But George was the one to make them work.

"I'm in love with Katie Bell," Lee blurts out. I smirk at George who smiles proudly.

"A potion that will make the one who drinks it admit who they love," George exclaims, "teens will eat the bloody shit up. Then we can make like candy with it in them. It'll go in a frilly teen girl corner."

"The teens will love it," I say as I pull the vial near me. The thick smell of the ingredients is overwhelming. "I'd but a flavouring in it, specifically one with a scent that way you can't just smell the ingredients from a mile away."

"Seconded," Lee says as he grabs a glass of water. He takes a sip then looks to George. "Plus statistically flavoured products sell better."

"Good idea," George says making a note of everything, "I'll get this brewed over and try to work it out more tomorrow."

"Remember to get Ginny her kit so she can sell at school," I remind George as he stretches causing his joints to pop loudly. I could tell he slouched over the cauldron for hours to get that potion to work. I wonder who it said for him when he tried it? Probaby Angelina. She's been around the shop a lot recently. "And take a break today and eat a proper meal. Not some sweets or crisps."

"Don't mother me woman," George growls.

"Don't make me bring Molly into this," I say warning him, "you were allowed to go back to work full time on the condition that you take care of yourself." He sighs finally giving in.

"Fine I'll get some grocery's after I ail this stuff out," He says and looks over the near-empty store, "Head out. Traffic is going to be a pain."

"Alrighty then," I say as I grab my purse from the ground, "I'll see you guys later!" I wave then move off. Once in the car, I start the steady drive to King's cross. It was neat to be one of the few pureblood wizards who actually bothered to learn to drive. For the most part, wizards who chose to remain more in the wizarding world rather than an even split between muggles and wizards they didn't drive. Really for wizards it all was apparating and portkeys once you were an adult. But I find a certain peace behind the wheel that I can only compare to when I'm on my broom. Both scenarios cleared my head and made me feel like I could understand anything. Plus on a super adorable note, Teddy loves car rides. Sometimes when I feel particularly stressed I take him on rides.

At King's cross, I stroll comfortably through the station. None of the muggles seemed to notice my presence. Then again I guess since I wasn't pushing a cart full of my things topped with my bright shiny owl.

Speaking of my owl, Lunar absolutely hates that she doesn't have a constant stream of letters or things like she had while I was in school. Mostly the letters I send or receive come from Draco so shes only seeing the trip from the burrow to Hogwarts. Occasionally the odd few to Pansy who at some odd moment while I was working at the shop decided to pop in and apoligse for being awful to me. But I had a lot to apologise to her for so it was pretty much even. Apparently, she and Nott moved out to Bulgaria after he got on the team. Not that she was with him at all, in fact, she had eyes for one Astoria in Hogwarts. No, she moved with Theodore cause she wanted to see new places and went through training in curse breaking down there. Honestly hearing about the lives of the kids I went to school with now just seems utterly ridiculous.

As I wait patiently at platform 9 3/4 I see Neville and Luna a little bit off from where I'm standing. I make my way towards them smiling brightly.

"What are you doing here?!" I ask cheerfully as I hug them both tightly.

"We are taking Ginny on a trip with us," Luna says, "we are hunting for crumpled horn snorlocks in Germany."

"A silver trio trip," Neville says, "a sort of way all of us can catch up and hang out like old times."

"That's great," I say to them, "all though I doubt Harry is happy you are stealing his girlfriend for the break."

"He'll get her full time once shes out of school," Luna says fiercely as Neville laughs.

"Why are you here Cultven?" Neville asks me.

"Same old same old," I say to him, "I have to pick up Draco and then we are going to his parents. Its going to be great."

"For your sake I hope its at least calm," He says to me, "but knowing him he'll probably propose."

"Is that such a bad thing?" Luna asks us. I shrug. The train scretches to a wicked hault and the kids pile out. Draco is one of the first. He walks towards us with a smileon he face. Once he reaches me he pulls me into a tight hug and crashes his lips into mine. He pulls back and smiles again.

"I missed you so much," He says to me, "I can't wait until I'm not at school anymore so I can actually see you more."

"Me too," I say to him as I push his wild locks back.

"You two are so grossesly in love stop it," Ginny teases. I guess during mine and Draco's reunion I missed her joinging the others. I smile at her.

"Oh shut it," I say to her, "Its nice to see you all but he and I better get going. We'll see you around."

"Bye," Draco says waving. Ginny smirks.

"Yeah you kids be safe now," She teases, "If you know what I mean."

"Ginevera should I tell your mother you talk like that?" I say teasing her back. She sticks her tonuge out as the others exchange their goodbyes. Draco and I head off to the car where he fills me in with all of the Hogwarts drama.

"Its quite amazing," He says, "I'm so close to finishing all the school reguirements to be an auror and I've got a job offer from the ministry."

"Thats great love," I say to him.

"But I'm really enjoying magical creatures now," He tells me, "Its like having a little piece of you with me. Everytime they pull out a new creature I just imagine your eyes lighting up. Ready to learn and happy. And now that I'm not peddling blood superority anymore people actually like me. It took a bit of adjusting but now Ginny, Blaise, Hermione, and I study together all the time. People like me? Its strange."

"I always liked you," I tell him as I sneak a glance at him.

"I know and I'm bloody lucky that you did," He says, "I was awful."

"Its cause I could tell under all of that I could tell you had a good heart," I say to him, "It made me fall in love with you."

"I love you," he says to me, "like a lot."

"I love you too Draco," I say to him, "quite a bit too."

"Oh and qudditch is going fantastic! I mean we might win the cup this year. An undefeated season!" He exclaims.

"So Blaise is doing good as captain?" I ask him. He nods.

"Yeah, real well when he stops playing spy all the damn time he's actually pretty great for the team,"

" it's good that someone is there for you guys," I say to him, " I wish I could've been captain longer."

"Well coaching the team at the beginning really helped us all," Draco says as I park at the burrow.

"we can floo from here," I say to Draco as we move through the house. I toss the keys down and grab my bag from beside the stairs then walk back to the fireplace where he stands. "Ready?"

"Yeah," he says as we each grab a fist full of powder.

"Malfoy Manor!"

We land in The living room of the manor meeting Narcisa as she sits on the couch slipping through the paper as her knitting needles quickly work beside her. But when she sees the two of us she stands rushing to hug us both.

"it's great to see you two!" She exclaims.

"Same to you Narcisa," I say cheerfully, she hugs tightly.

"I'll check on dinner you to get settled," she says to us. We comply and move upstairs heading towards Draco's room. Despite coming here often to see his parents or such, I've never actually went as far as going to his room. So this was actually strange. Once inside the room my nerves relax, this is 100% Draco. A sleek and neat room. Really the only odd thing in the room is his desk. And more so the decorations on the desk. I step towards it to see pictures frames filled with pictures of him and I, along with some of his friends and family. The most recent one from the quarter final game. Me in my green uniform and him in a store bought jersey with my name and number on it. He and i smiling brightly as Luna takes the picture.

"Awe look at little us," I say Picking up the picture of us from the Yule Ball. Both of us dressed up nicely and smiling. The two of us so in love in this picture. Collin must of taken this. The poor boy didn't deserve what happen to him but he died protecting the wizarding world. In the picture Draco and I are dancing amongst the other couples.

"That feels like forever ago," Draco says as he peers over my shoulder to see the picture. In this picture you could see my whole dress, along with my bare feet. I maybe lasted an hour in my heels so this was taken later in the night.

"We've been together for forever," I chuckle slightly. I catch a newspaper clipping from the daily profit on the desk by the pictures. Upon further observation it's actually a couple. The one on top talking about Draco coming to the match wearing my jersey. The headline read 'Cultven is back with her Hogwarts Sweetheart."

"So you are a giant dork confirmed," I say as I pick up a spew badge I had given him, "all of third picture and things for what?"

"To remember I have the best girlfriend in the world."

"You flatter me."

"You deserve it," He says as he leans in to kiss me. But before he can he's interrupted by Narcisa sticking her head into the room.

"Dinner!" She exclaims, "oh sorry kids." She Pops back out and I start to giggle.

"That's our cue," I say to Draco. I lace my fingers with his as we make our way downstairs. Once in the dining room we see Lucius and Narcisa sitting at the large table covered in food. As we sit down the meal starts and we fill the two in with our lives. Although we wait until after the meal ends to bring up the big topic Draco starts.

" I know you have too stressed that you would love to have us live with you," Draco starts, " and we've thought about it but we decided we want to have a space of our own."

"You would have that here," Narcisa says, "a whole wing for our future grandkids."

"Actually," I say, "we are planning to move into the Cultven manor."

"I figured so," Lucius says, "But are you sure? We heard it was damaged in the war."

"We have time to fix it up," Draco says to him, "while i'm home for the rest of break we going to see what needs to be done and then Y/n and her family are going to get it set up."

"That way after Draco graduates we can both move in for sure," I tell them. Narcisa gives a skeptical look to Lucius. "We are going tomorrow to look at the damage with Molly."

"We want to go," Narcisa says.

"She wants to go," Lucius corrects.

"If you can take Molly then I should be able to go," Narcisa insists. I looked to Draco and he nods.

"That's fine," Draco says, "we can all look at the house."

"You'll love the gardens," I tell her, "we'll have to fix them up along with the graveyard in the back but other than that I'm sure you'll love the house."

"I guess we'll see," she says.

After dinner Draco and I head upstairs to his room. We curl up together in his large bed as his records play. Both of us loved the record players so much, I mean sure they were a little dated but who cares? They were enjoyable. He plays with my hair as I trace shapes along his arm. The song plays and it's some loud Muggle band that I got him for Christmas. We listened to it in the store and he liked it a lot and I actually got him a couple different ones. Moral of the story is he and I for Christmas spoiled the other quite a bit.

"Honestly I'm so excited to have a place for just the two of us," I say ask he nods.

"Yeah I'm pretty excited to be able to see you everyday again, make us breakfast in the mornings," He starts, "eventually maybe get married. It'll be great."

"This is right," I say to him, "this is where we should of went." He pecks my forehead then waves his wand at the record player to turn down the music. Both of us quickly falling asleep.

~~~~~~

Bright and early the next morning I climb out of bed and get ready to go on a run. Draco sighs looking at me. "The seasons over love," He says simply.

"Yes But i want to keep up in the same shape," I say to him, "makes it easier when I get back to it. Besides I'll be back before you realise." He climbs out of bed and starts putting on something he could work out in.

"I'll go with you," He says to me, "just give me a second." Once he gets dressed we rush out side for the run. Both of us going pretty fast but keeping with the other. It's actually quite enjoyable and makes the whole thing easier. And once we get back to the manor we both go upstairs to shower. Like Hogwarts they have the big luxurious showers that I miss quite honestly. After we shower and finish getting ready for the day we head back downstairs to eat. Where Narcisa is waiting patiently sipping her coffee.

"Morning mum," Draco says as we sit down.

"Morning you two," She says to us. We pile our plates up and dig in while she smiles at us. "Are you ready to go look at the house?"

"Oh yeah yeah," Draco says suddenly reminded that his mother now is added to the list of us observing the house. "We'll eat then Y/n will pop over to the Burrow to go get Mrs. Weasley."

"Perfect," she smiles. We follow just that plan. He and his mother apparate to the outside of the Cultven Manor while I go to meet Molly. Once at the burrow I see Harry and Ron sitting at the kitchen table with Hermione. The boys eating as the girl rambles on about her classes and such. But once she sees me she stops.

"Oh hi Y/n," she says seeming confused, "I thought you were staying at Draco's."

"Well I am here to get Molly for house stuff," I tell Hermione, "depending on the damages to the manor Draco and I might chose another place to live. Maybe build our own place."

"I wish those were my problems right now," Ron sighs, "working is harder than I thought."

"You do know I have two jobs right?" I ask Ron, "I don't think you get that it's not just inheritance that I have."

"Quidditch seems like an extremely fun job compared to be an auour right now," Ron says.

"What He means is that we are extremely busy," Harry says, "the war wasn't that long ago and there are still so many death eaters in hiding."

"Must be a lot harder now that you don't have the brains of the operation," I say to Harry referring to Hermione. The boys chuckle slightly.

"They both will do fine without us," Hermione says, "however how are you doing right now? With everything going on?"

"I'm perfectly fine," I tell her, "keeping up with preparation for next season. I mean like look at these muscles." I flex my arms and they chuckle.

"How's Draco feel about that?" Harry asks.

"Well he thinks it's adorable," I say to Harry, "he's always liked me doing stuff I love. I mean the dork has a jersey for me he wears all the time."

"Oh dear Y/n I didn't even realise you were here," Molly says as she joins us at the table, "we better get going if you want to get through the whole house."

"Alright. I'll see you guys around," I say to them, "lets go Molly." We apparate to join Draco and Narcisa outside the house. The keys to the manor jingle in my pocket. "Welcome to the Cultven Manor!"

"The exterior is actually really pretty," Molly says, "it looks pretty old. Any idea when the house was built?"

"Late 1800s," I tell them as we walk to the door, "based off of gothic architecture. My grandmother loved the category. Anyhow she was very fond of the place and didn't leave until she passed."

"Any ghosts?" Draco asks curiously.

"Not a One," I say to him as I unlock the door. I push open it to reveal the cleaned entrance. Finn must have done it at some point. The small house elf currently lives here in the servants wing. However he's on holiday at the moment at a place with a house elf from Hogwarts. "So this is the entrance hall, the biggest issue you in here honestly is this antique carpet. It's a little stained."

"Oh dear what happened there?" Narcisa asks.

"Um when we were on the run Ron got splinched," i tell them, "He was fine but he did bleed quite a bit. We didn't have the time to get rid of it. Will toss it out." I guess each of them forgot that we were on the run all of last year. I lead them into the kitchen moving past. Most of the damage is superficial. Things a quick spell could fix.

The parents reserve their comments through the whole time which is nerve racking. Their judgemental faces at each minor issue causes me to slightly panic on the inside. The last room on the tour of the house was one I never really frequented as a kid.

We step inside the extremely clean room and the mothers examine every inch of it. The room is a nice nursery that my parents set up. My parents wanted to have another baby before my mother died, then my father didn't have the heart to take it down when she died.

"This is the nursery," I say to them, "this is the only room we don't plan on changing."

"Just in case we need it anytime soon," Draco says

"Not that we will need it anytime soon," I say making sure they don't assume I'm pregnant. Cause at the moment I'm way to focused on my career.

"Not until we are married," Draco says, "But just in case."

"So what do you think?" I ask them. Their expressionless face slowly change to smiles.

"I love it," Molly whimpers. She hugs me tightly. "Awe it will work so well. I'm so happy for you guys!"

"My grandchildren will be here," Narcisa says looking to her soon, "this is perfect for you two."

"So you guys are okay with us moving out?" Draco asks them.

"Yes," Narcisa whimpers as she hugs her son.

With the approval of the mothers done we both get everything set to move into the home. We both are going to have to work a lot but the reward of us finally being able to live together after he graduates will make it all worth it.

Moving day is coming up quickly.

(The next chapter will be so cute y'all aren't even ready.)
