Chapter Ten:

Ellie had eventually calmed down, and Draco had gotten over the shock surprisingly fast. Now they were just talking. About themselves, friends, and family.

“So, what are our parents like?” Ellie asked, “Oh, well, they aren’t really the nurturing type, you know.” Draco answered. Ellie nodded, a strange look on her face.

“Oh.” Draco just pushed it aside though “Well, what are you’re, um, adopted parents like?” Ellie speared one of the big puffy marshmallows on a stick the room of requirements had supplied, and stuck it into fire. “Well, they are really nice, and help anyone who needs it.

They’re always fair, and they give me an allowance. My mom always wakes me up singing a goofy song, and if I don’t get up by the time she comes back the second time, she sprays me with freezing cold water, and every day for my birthday, we go to the cabin, and go fishing, and swimming, and then roast hot dogs.”

She leaned back, a content look on her face. “That sounds really nice. You have no idea how lucky you’ve got it.” Ellie looked over at Draco.

“Well, maybe you can come visit some time. You don’t even have to tell anyone either. I haven’t told them. You know…” Draco nodded, a thoughtful look on his narrow face.

“You know what, that sound really nice. I might just take you up on that offer.” Ellie’s face broke into a smile. “I’ll send an owl to mom as soon as possible! How a bout Christmas? Unless, do you want to stay here?”

When Ellie had said Christmas, Draco had sat straight up. “You mean, with a tree, and presents? And a real Christmas dinner?” Ellie couldn’t help giggling. “Of coarse! I hope that means Christmas works?” “Definitely!”
