Walks Home

This was something I was told once again after Draco got married.

This was the same night that he broke down and told me plenty of other things.

Honestly I wish this had all happened sooner.

At least then I would have been able to put a stop to it.

As long as I try and beg father to let me marry Draco then there is hope.

There could be hope for the Malfoy name and not the plan they are planning on following through with.

That plan consisted of Draco's parents sending Astoria which is the female that Draco is set to marry as soon as she gets pregnant.

They will send her back in time with the time turner so she can have sex with Voldemort.

I mean if I was in her shoes then I would want it to be the 16 year old version of Voldemort.

I would most definitely prefer 16 year old Tom Riddle to 30 year old Lord Voldemort.

So Draco needed to get that of his chest to me about Scorpius Malfoy (Riddle) and a few other things.

So here was how I was as dumb as ever not to realise what this grown man was walking me home for one reason every single day of my life.

~~~~~~~~~~~
I decided that it would be a nice idea to meet friends for a drink after my work as an actress.

I waved at one of my co-stars whom's name was Tom Felton, great guy to say the least.

'Cya round DeMar' Tom shouted at me with a smile, I continued to wave.

'And you Felton' I shouted back before he waved at me and we both went out separate ways.

I like him but I mean giving up Draco for a male that did indeed look remarkably like him wouldn't be fair on both of their causes.

So I slipped away into The Leaky Cauldron which was a great bar but I did prefer the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade.

I sat down and awaited for my sister and our shared best friend.

No doubt that they would bring their now much grown up husbands.

Draco's then sidekicks but current best friends, Cedric Diggory and Neville Longbottom.

Or Bottomlong which Draco prefers, it doesn't bother Neville at least.

But then again it bothers Draco that it doesn't bother Neville.

Safe to say that both Diggory and Longbottom have matured but Draco, not so much.

My sister walked in with my little nephew followed by Neville, I smiled happily.

Upon smiling at them all they walked towards me, my nephew running and screaming 'Auntie Niki'.

They were then followed by the much pregnant Joely Evans along with her husband Cedric.

Behind Cedric I noticed a preferably well dressed lad.

He was always well dressed though being slightly immature.

That was the boy I could have called my husband in that moment.

Safe to say that I am clearly unable to do that now as he is married.

At that moment in time I knew nothing of him about to get married or looking for a wife even.

All I knew was that we would get married, there was always the possibility.

The possibility being likely, that's why we've always stayed close.

A few hours passed and we sat talking, laughing and drinking not alcohol.

No alcohol because Sam brought my nephew, we all needed to get home and because it wouldn't be fair on Joely as you can't drink when pregnant.

I know a lot about pregnancy regardless weather I am pregnant or not.

For your information it happened a few times throughout my relationship with Draco but no baby ever come of it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Draco smiled taking my hand and leading me out of The Leaky Cauldron, twenty minutes after our friends had left.

'Where are we going?' I asked him with a smile, he was full of surprises.

'Same thing I always do' Draco said as he awaited for my reply, that meant that I was intended to finish his sentence.

'Walk me home' I said with a slight sigh, nothing fun tonight.

'Draco I don't see why you won't let me side-along apparate with you' I said looking at him.

I felt strange that every time I ask him that question he will always ignore me.

He will always avoid the question, change the topic or just plain ignore me.

I seriously can't stand him when he does this to me.

He knew I respected that he continued to walk me home everyday.

Most days he would even come to where I worked.

He would smile at Tom regardless being slightly jealous of him, then walk away holding my hand.

I mean having him to even walk me home is something out of this world.

I lived in a flat in central London which was a bit of a walk away from where he lived in the Manor.

He does ask me sometimes if I want to stay there at the Manor sometimes but most days I have to be in London early.

I did spend a full week there with him once which was honestly something completely surreal.

I appreciate him more than anything for everything he does for me, he doesn't have to.

But now it's the moment you've been waiting for and the time they is unforgettable.

Here's the real reason why, the one and only Draco Lucius Malfoy was being so nice and walked me home every single day.

The reason was because he knew he was going to get married to Astoria soon enough.

So he took every opportunity to spend more time with me.

Every chance to get to see me because he knows that it could be the last time.

I broke down it tears that moment he told me this.

I don't know how I would cope knowing this let alone him knowing this most of his adult life.

He keeps this from his wife and he kept it from me.

But for a boy as such as him to want to spent more time with me just baffled me.

He doesn't have a say it the marriage, he never will.

He hasn't ever had a say in who is parents decided to make him marry.

After all it was a forced marriage and has always been, no change.

All that time I was blind enough to not see the reason why.

I had questioned him and told him that we should just side along apparate but over and over again he would change the subject or ignore me.

Now I get this, now I understand.

Now I understand the reason why he walked me home.
