Silver Spoon

Violet Black

We finally made it to King's Cross station, snow flurrying all around the red steam engine as it slows its pace pulling into the station. I couldn't help but admire the view. I loved snow. People flooding into the hidden platform, waving and smiling at their children in the windows it was so nostalgic to say the least.

I had never had a boyfriend before, nevertheless brought a boy home. Or Malfoy Manor. I was nervous at first but I just knew they would warm up to him eventually. His warm green eyes were enough to woo anyone.

I smile as I see Mrs. Malfoy and quickly get my trunk from the over head compartment. I wake up the rest to my excited voice. "We are here guys wake up!!" They all shift in their seats, stretching and yawning. Tom adjusts his pants before he stands, pulling me against his warm chest.

"Are you ready love?" I ask softly. He smiles down at me, "Yes darling."

We all grab our trunks and exit the train. We walk into the chilly December air, as Mrs. Malfoy walks up to me. I quickly let go of Tom's hand running up to her.

She looked beautiful as always. Dark, skin tight dress that complimented all her curves. And soft, fluffy fur coat to cover it. She always had to look absolutely amazing no matter where she went. Her silk blonde hair gently falling over her shoulders.

She beams at us as she pulls me into a warm embrace kissing my forehead, "Violet darling how has my favorite child been this school year?"

Mama Malfoy had always treated Cygnus and I as her own children. I appreciated that she took us in after our father went to Azkaban for child abuse. She is the closest thing to a mother that I have ever had.

Abraxas scoffs, "Nice to know you don't even like your own child." He jokes as he runs his fingers through his platinum blonde hair that matched his mother's.

She struts over to him, pinching his cheeks and smiling at him, "My dearest son, you know I will forever love you."

He shoves her off gently, "Mum your embarrassing me in front of my girlfriend." He says as his cheeks turn a light shade of pink from his mother pinching them. He wraps one arm around Cassie as her face turns the exact same shade.

"Well Merlin- we all have been waiting for this haven't we? Finally chose a good one." She says as she pulls Cassie into an embrace. Cassie wraps her arms around her small frame, smiling into her fur jacket. "He finally grew a pair." Cassie whispers to Mrs. Malfoy, as she gives a chuckle.

Abraxas grips Cassie's hand as they pull away. His mother gives him a now stern look, "Dont hurt this one Braxy, okay? I love her." She threatens.

Cygnus, Druella, and I give a small laugh at his childhood nickname. He sends a threatening look before turning back to his mother. He rubs his forehead in embarrassment, "Mum I said not to call me that."

She ignores his statement immediately turning to where Tom stood, as she raised her eyebrows at me. "Is this the young man that you have been owling me about Violet?" She asks as she sticks her pale hand out to shake his.

He grips her tiny, pale hand in his large, tan one. "Tom Riddle. It's wonderful to meet you Misses Malfoy. May I add you look wonderful as well." He says looking quite nervous, as he smiles sweetly at her.

I could hear Cygnus whispering with Abraxas behind us, "Sucking up already." I subtly punch his shoulder signally for him to shut his mouth. "Ouch Vi." He says rubbing where I punched.

She turns her head to me, "Mmmm I like this one already. Nice to meet you Mister Riddle." She says as she lets go of his hand, and pulls him into a hug. He looked at me for reassurance as I nod and smile at him, mouthing "This is good she likes you."

He wraps one arm around her waist before they pull away. She straightens out her dress, "Alright my sweet, sweet darling children we should get out of the cold. I hope you all brought warm clothing. I have a Port Key in my purse here." She says as she digs in her expensive Louis Vuitton purse.

She pulls out a shiny spoon.

"Alright let's go." She says, as we all put our hands in the center grabbing on to the spoon. As soon as everyone grips onto it our world spins around us. Twisting and turning and going up and down until finally we land on the snow ridden Malfoy land.

Druella stumbles, gripping onto Cygnus' elbow. "God- I vow to never apparate if that is what it feels like-" She says as she tries holding back her vomit, placing her fingers over her mouth.  I laugh silently at her stumbling around for a few more seconds.

We all walk into the large Manor, wiping our feet on the front doormat before entering with snowy shoes. Mama Malfoy would get furious if we tread snow all over the clean marble floors.

We make our way to the living room, as Abraxas immediately slouches onto the dark couch in front of the crackling fire place. "Abraxas darling shouldn't you show the girls and Tom to their rooms? Obviously Violet you may stay in your room." Mama says as she rubs his shoulders from behind the couch.

He sighs before standing and nodding for us to follow him. We make our way through the Manor, the marble floors were cold against my feet. We all walk up the spiral marble staircase and walking to several different bedrooms.

"Vi- you know where your room is. Um- Cygnus and Tom you can stay in my room if you please." Abraxas queries as he enters into the first bedroom setting down his trunk. I could hear their dress shoes click, clacking on the hard wood floors that lined the very large bedroom that was Abraxas'.

Cygnus and Tom follow him into the bedroom. Druella, Cassie and I quickly head to my room that I knew all too well. The room was filled with light seeping in through the open window.

The dark black drapes that were gently pushed to the sides to reveal the snowy outdoors brought back a feeling of comfort and warmth to me. I walk slowly over to the window, admiring the beautiful view from the second floor of Malfoy Manor.

Several muggle house were surrounding the large wizard filled manor, all covered in thick layers of white, sparkling snow. "I have never stayed in this room." Druella explains as her and Cassie stand beside me, looking out the window beside the large queen sized bed with a dark burgundy colored duvet that gently lay over the warm sheets.

"I will never get over this view." I queried as I begin setting my trunk onto my bed and begin unpacking my warm clothing that I packed for the week.

"We should probably go check on the boys once we get settled in." Cassie pitches in as she begins unpacking her clothing as well.

Druella and I nod, "I haven't been to the muggle towns in so long. I am excited." Cassie says as she goes into the large bathroom that stood inside the also very large bedroom, beginning to brush out her long blonde hair.

We finally exit the bedroom, walking down the dark wooden hallway down to the boys room.

We walk into the room as we see mama sitting on the edge of the bed with the three slytherin boys sat around her.

"Ah, girls come in come in." She brightly explains as she motions with her hand for us to come and sit with her and the boys. All three of us look at each other, slightly worried we were about to have a 'be responsible and safe' talk.

We make our way over to the bed sitting next to mama and the boys. "Alright so I will mostly be leaving you guys alone I have some business to attend to at the Ministry so please think before you act. Be responsible-" She says, raising one eyebrow at her son. His face turns a light shade of pink out of embarrassment.

"Condoms are in the bathr-"

"Alright, alright mum that's enough." Abraxas says frantically as he straightens his collar. All of us laugh as well as mama. She pats him on the shoulder, "Just making sure you know son. You know precautions and what not." She smiles.

"Yeah uh is that- uh all. Because we would like to spend time uh- together-" Abraxas stutters, still messing with the collar to his dress shirt.

"Yes- I will be on my way. Alcohol is downstairs in the cellar if you would like to take a few sips." She says as she subtly smiles at us.

Mama normally let us drink, never too much though which was just her motherly instinct. "Alright well behave yourselves and I will be back later tonight. Have fun." She says as she smiles and walks out of the room.

"Bye misses. Malfoy have fun at the ministry." Cassie says as she waved goodbye to her future mother in law. Hopefully.

"Alright well let's get settled in and start drinking shall we?" Tom speaks up for the first time in forever. I look at him with surprise etched in my face. "Yeah let's get to drinking." I cheer.

"I think I am going to pass on the drinking tonight- I'll just advise you and your drunk selves." Druella queries as she twists her rings around each of her fingers looking down at her hands.

"Ella you aren't drinking? you always drink." Abraxas responds looking confused at her proposition. She looks back up her face turning slightly red, "Uh yeah- I don't really feel well." She says as she weirdly rubs her stomach.

"Uh alright well more for us right?" Tom responds as he wraps his arm around my waist.

I could tell something was up with her, maybe I could ask her later. She never passes on a drink, even when she is feeling ill. Something is up.

Or maybe I am overthinking maybe she is fine. But she is like my sister and I at least need to ask her.
