It’s our 5th year at Hogwarts and we’ve just been told that the Yule ball will be held this year. Everybody is excited, figuring out who they’ll be going with and what they’ll be wearing. Pansy goes with Blaise, her boyfriend. Theo goes with Aurelia. Enzo with Astoria and Draco asks me, his best friend, to go with him. Maybe it was the way I looked that night that led him to realize how deeply in love with me he was, or maybe he’d always felt that way about me and we just didn’t know it. Draco has known my brother, Enzo, and I our entire lives. We grew up together since our mothers, Narcissa and Lorig, and best friends. We’ve always been clingy with one another and he’s always been overly protective of me. Intimacy is common for us, although just “best friends”. We spend our Winter breaks, Spring breaks and Summer breaks often at each others homes; either the Malfoy manor or Berkshire estate. During our Summer going into 6th year, some things will change. About a month into Summer, Draco will stop replying to my owls and will stop coming to visit me. He doesn’t reply to anybody else as well and that worries me. My parents will be very secretive and will not tell both Enzo and I what’s being going on until a a few weeks before school starts. I’ll be called to the Malfoy manor by Narcissa and she will take me to her office to tell me that the Dark lord is back— and that he’s taken Draco as one of his “soldiers.” She will tell me that Draco has received the dark mark and has not left his room since; thus, being one of the reasons he hasn’t replied to me. She will send me to his room to try and speak to him. What I don’t realize is that being a death eater is also going to be mine and Enzo’s fate… just a bit later on. Once Enzo and I receive our marks— tasks are given one our sixth year begins. Draco is assigned to kill dumbledore, though professor Snape carries out the task instead. After our sixth year, during the summer going into our seventh year, I will not be allowed to speak to or see Draco at all. He will be sent on a death eater mission. It was a lonely summer… I missed my lover. Once school begun, we maintained our distance. We put up a front and made it seem as if we weren’t together anymore. The two of us would sneak around behind the scenes to see each other as much as possible— missing our casual intimacy and clinginess. About a month into our 7th year; Draco, Enzo and I will be sent a letter saying that we are to report to the Berkshire estate on a Friday evening through professor Snape (the new headmasters) floo network. We will be told that the death eaters now have access to the castle, and that they are planning to attack on a specific day and time. We are told to prepare for the up and coming war…
