Author's Note:
Sorry it took my so long to update. I had been busy with other things, and completely forgot to update but here is the next chapter.


Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of the other characters except Paige, Ashley, Leah, and Mike in this chapter.

A/N: Thanks again Lian for helping me with the story. In this chapter you find out one reason why Paige hates Mike so much.

The Beach and the Ex-boyfriend

"Draco it's rude to stare and close your mouth, please," I told him waving my hand in front of his face.

He quickly snapped out of it and said a quick thanks. He stood up and then started to walk over to them. Great now what is he up to, is he trying to start another fight with them. I better go and stop him before he ruins my birthday. I stood up and followed him over there.

"What are you doing here?" Potter asked Draco.

"We are here because it is my birthday and I wanted to go to the beach," I said walking up and standing next to Draco.

Potter looked speechless at me and couldn't find a good comment to that.

"We can both be here at the same beach at the same time," Granger said reasonably.

"Fine," Draco said walking away in a huff.

Granger looked hurt, "Sorry about him but he's just being an ass today. He's not like this all the time," I said trying to explain his actions.

"Bullshit, he's always like that and you shouldn't be making excuses for him," Potter said.

"He's my cousin what do you expect me to say?" I asked.

"Maybe that he is a cold hearted bastard," R. Weasley.

"Well maybe if you weren't asshole towards him, he might not be a cold hearted bastard towards you. He always as a reason behind why he does stuff, so you probably pissed him off in some way awhile ago," I said.

"He's been like this since the first day of first year and as far as I know Harry didn't do anything to piss Dr-Malfoy off," Granger said.

I caught her mistake but her friends didn't, "Well Draco doesn't just hate people for no reason. Like I said before you had to have done something to get him pissed at you. So I would think about what you did to piss him off and try to get on his good side soon," I said to Potter but I was looking at Granger.

Granger saw me watching her and she started to fidget.

"Well I better go before Draco thinks you kidnapped me. I'll see you on the train tomorrow then. Goodbye," I said starting to walk back over to where Aunt Narcissa was sitting on a beach chair.

On my way back someone ran into me, "Sorry didn't see you there," the guy said, "Is that you Paige?"

"Yes it is," I said looking up and seeing that it was my ex-boyfriend, "Get away from me."

"Why are you mad at me?"

"Why am I mad at you? You're asking why I'm mad at you," I started to yell.

"Stop yelling, people are starting to stare at us."

"I don't give a fuck who is staring at us and why should I stop yelling?"

"Because..."

"Well since you have nothing else to say to me I'm going now," I said starting to walk away, but he grabbed my arm and held me back, "Let me go now."

"I will if you won't leave when I do. I have to talk to you," he said loosening his grip on my arm.

As soon as is hand was off my arm I moved out of his reach, "Why should I listen to you, bastard," I said as I quickly walked away and continued on my way, but yet again he grabbed my arm.

Next thing I knew he was lying in the sand knocked out. I looked up and saw Potter with his wand out along with his friends (they didn't have their wands out).

"Who was that?" Potter asked.

"No one important."

"Well then why did he have a hold on your arm and you yelling at him if he isn't that important?" Granger asked.

Now I know why Draco hates her so much. Can't blame him though I'm starting to hate her myself and I just met her today.

"He wanted to talk to me and I refused to talk to him," I said.

"You do know him right?" G. Weasley asked.

"Yes, I know that fucking bastard," I said.

"I take it you two aren't on good terms right now," R. Weasley said.

"What made you think that? The fact that it is clear that I hate his fucking guts."

"Well why do you hate him so much then? If it's alright that I ask?" Potter said.

"It's not alright and right now I don't want to talk about him anymore," I said.

"Paige what the fuck happened here?" Draco said walking over to where we were standing.

"My ex tried to talk to me and I wouldn't listen to him so he grabbed my arm and I tried to get away. When I finally did he grabbed my arm again and then I guess Potter stunned him," I said.

"Well let's go my Mother was wondering where you went to," Draco said walking away.

"Wait for me Draco," I said following him.

"Well I guess it's starting to work because if he didn't then he wouldn't have tried to save you. So you okay?" Draco said.

"Yeah I'm fine just a little pissed off right now," I said.

What made him think that I would talk to him after what he did to me? He must be more dense than I thought. Should I tell Draco the truth or not? No I don't think he needs to just yet anyways.

"Oh I forgot to tell you that we are having a guest for dinner," Draco said.

"Who is it?"

"You'll find out at dinner I'm not supposed to tell you anything," Draco said, "Especially not here."

"You're never supposed to tell me anything and what do you mean not here?"

"Let's not discuss this here," Draco said. "So why would your ex be so keen to talk to you if something didn't happen between you when you were together?"

"None of your god damn fucking business."

"Fine be that way, so do you want to go home now?"

"Yeah."

When we got back to where my aunt was we told her that we wanted to go home, so we left. After we got home I went to my room and started to write a letter to Ashley about what had happened during the day. When I was done I went to the owlery and sent the letter (owlery is out on the grounds remember).About an hour after I had sent the letter the owl came back with a reply:

Dear Paige,

I don't know why he would think that you would want to talk to him after what he did to you. This probably all could have been avoided if you had only just listened to me and never had gone out with him in the first place. So putting that matter aside how did you like the present I got you? Sorry I couldn't be there. Can't wait for tomorrow when I will see you again on the train. Maybe we can get a compartment together and catch up on what's happened all summer. Can I ask why Potter saved you in the first place and why were you talking to him and his friends anyways?

Your very confused best friend,

Ashley

After I finished reading the letter it made me reminded me about my conversation with Draco so I left my room and knocked on his door.

"Come in."

I opened the door and sat down on the edge of his bed.

"So what do you want?" Draco asked while he was packing his stuff for school into his trunk.

"I want to know who the guest that's coming to dinner is." I asked watching him pack.

"You'll find out in," he looked at his watch, "twenty minutes. We better get going."

"Ok I said standing up and walking to the door.

Draco and I walked downstairs I got to the dining room before Draco and I saw who the guest was. (Should I leave you in suspense and just stop here even thought it is not that long and make you wait to find out who the guest is or am I going to be nice and just let you know who the guest is and continue with story. I'll be nice and continue). The guest was none other than the Dark Lord himself. Draco walked in and bowed. Aunt Narcissa was sitting at the opposite side of the table of the Dark Lord. So that meant that Draco and I would have to sit in our usual seats.

Draco started the conversation, "How have you been my Lord?"

"Fairly good. You are having a party tonight aren't you Narcissa?"

"Yes we the party later on," my aunt said.

"What's the party for, Aunt?" I asked.

"You're birthday of course," Voldemort said.

How would he know when my birthday is? I have never met him as far as I know. And why is he here? I know for certain that he doesn't just show up at people's houses for no reason.

"Why wouldn't I know when your birthday is?" he asked, "You never told her did you Narcissa?"

"We haven't had time to. It has only been a few months since the accident and we thought it was too soon to tell her," my aunt said.

What are they talking about? And how did he know what I was thinking, when I didn't say anything?

"Well are you going to tell her or am I going to have to tell her," Voldemort said.

"I am sitting right here you know," I said.

"I'd rather her know the truth now and not later," Voldemort said.

"Can't you wait till her next birthday to tell her/" my aunt pleaded.

"No she has to know now."

"I'm still here so stop talking like I'm not even here," I said.

(Hmm... I'm thinking of stopping again and leaving you in suspense about what Narcissa and Voldemort are talking about but I did say most of the questions that you were probably asking would be answered. So I have a decision to make and I'll make it tomorrow because I think I have typed enough today. I am starting to get bored. So I will continue typing tomorrow. Well I decided that I would continue typing and let you find out what Narcissa and Voldemort are talking about).

"Paige your adopted and I am your Father," Voldemort said.

"What?" I asked shocked.

"I'm your Father, Paige. You will still be living here and will continue to use the same last name you have now. You are not to tell anyone that you are my daughter or there will be serious action taken," Voldemort.

"Then what was the point in telling me to begin with if I can't tell anyone who I really am?" I asked.

"Because you needed to know so that you would know why you are engaged to be married after your last year at Hogwarts. You will find out who you are going to marry later on is that clear?" he said.

"Yes... sir, but why do I have to get married as soon as a graduate from Hogwarts? Why can't I just wait five or six years after Hogwarts?" I asked praying he would change his mind.

"Because I said you have to and don't argue with me about it."

"Fine," I said barely holding in my anger.

Through the rest of dinner I didn't talk unless I had to talk as soon as I was done eating I asked if I could be excused.

"Why do you want to be excused?" Voldemort asked.

"Because I am tired and I want to go to sleep."

"Have you forgotten that there is a party in your honor tonight? You have to go and there's no way you are going to back out of going to it."

"Fine, then can I get ready?"

"Yes you may but be down by eight forty five because the guest will be starting to arrive by then."

"Yes sir."

"Call me Father."

"Yes Father," I said with some resentment in my voice as I stood up and left.

God damn fucking bastard how dare he arrange for me to get married after I graduate from Hogwarts. Just because you are the Dark lord doesn't mean that you can run everyone's lives. God I just find out that he is my father and he is already making plans for me to get married. When I got to my room I was thinking about whether or not I should owl Ashley and tell her about everything that had happened just now. I decided not to so I wouldn't have to have her involved in all this mess. How is he really suppose to help me when he really doesn't know how I really feel? He'll just say that that I am just over reacting about it. God I hate my life. Why does shit like this always have top happen to me? I didn't do anything to deserve this kind of fucked up life. Since I couldn't get out of going to this party I went to take a shower. After I was done I brushed my hair, (it started to curl some afterwards) I went and found a nice dress robe in my closet (it was blue the one my Aunt had bought me awhile ago). So I put it on then I went back into the bathroom to put on some lip gloss on. By the time I was done I still had an hour till I had to be downstairs to "greet the guests" so I went to my desk and made sure that I had put all my homework in my trunk. Then I saw the letter from Ashley I remembered that she had asked me some questions so I looked through the letter so I could find the questions and answer them:

Dear Ashley,

Thank you for the birthday present I loved it. I still haven't found out what Draco got me yet. I guess it still hasn't arrived yet. I don't know why Potter saved me in the first place. I was following Draco over there so that they didn't get into a fight. Well they wound up getting into a fight anyways and Draco walked away so I tried to explain why Draco was acting the way he was. So we got along but I said that I better go before Draco thought that they had kidnapped me. So like I told you before I was on my way back to where Draco went and that's when Mike showed up and tried to talk to me. So now you know what happened earlier today.

Your very pissed off best friend,

Paige

When I finished writing the letter I had thirty minutes left. The owl that had brought the letter was still there so I tied the letter to its leg and then it flew away. So since I would be needed downstairs soon I started on my way (taking my time of course). When I got to the stairs I heard voices.

"This party is for Paige to meet and greet with some of the other Death Eaters children that go to her school before she actually goes their so she knows who she can and can't hang around with," Father said.

"Well I hope she does know who to truly trust and she can tell you if anyone is straying too far away from you or if they try to tell Dumbledore anything about where you are staying," a male voice said.

Who are he talking to and what does that guy mean that I should tell my Father if anyone is straying too far away from him and who to truly trust? This year is going to suck so fucking bad it won't even be funny. I just better ask Draco who to trust and not trust tomorrow so I don't get into trouble and have my Father kill me because I have embarrassed him in some way.

"Well shouldn't the other guests be arriving anytime now?" the man asked.

I got bored with what they were saying so I walked downstairs and the two of them turned around and looked at me.

"Yes they will be. Where did you get that dress?" Father asked.

"Aunt Narcissa bought it for me a while ago," I said.

"She's not your Aunt call her Narcissa not Aunt Narcissa."

"Whatever," I said defiantly looking him in the eyes, the man my Father was talking to stared at me in disbelief.

"Don't whatever me."

"Fine."

Draco came down not long after that wearing a black dress robe with a silver trim on it. He saw that I looked even madder then I did at the end of dinner.

"Why do you look like you could bite someone's head off?" Draco whispered.

"Are you kidding me that you don't know why I am so pissed right now?"

"Actually I am not kidding you."

"Men are so god damn stupid."

"Why are you calling me stupid?"

"Never mind," I said as someone arrived at the party.

This is going to be a long night. I just want this to be over with already.

"So when do you think they'll let your Father out of Azkaban?" I asked.

"I don't know when, but let's not talk about it right now."

"Okay. So who will be coming to this thing anyways?"

"Crabbe and Goyle will be here with their parents, some other Slytherins will be here also. I hope that the Parkinsons won't be coming though."

This time when someone arrived it was someone that Draco knew from Slytherin and the guy's parents.

"Hey Blaise," Draco said to the guy.

I just stood there with a bored expression on my face staring at the wall.

"What's with her?" Blaise said looking at me.

"She doesn't want to be here and she isn't in a very good mood so if I was you I would leave her alone," Draco said.

The next people to arrive were the Parkinsons. Great now I have to put up with her. I'll be lucky if I don't kill her. She gives us women a bad name by always having to depend on a guy. It is bad enough that I'm going to have to be stared at by Crabbe and Goyle but that I can ignore. I can't ignore her whining about Draco not wanting her anymore or paying her any attention. After awhile everyone had arrived so the party got underway. I tried to avoid talking to as many people as I possibly could, but to make matters worse my Father dragged me into having a conversation with pansy and some girl named Millicent Bulstrode.

I was looking for Draco when Pansy asked, "What do you think Paige?"

"What?"

"I said what do you think Paige?"

"About what?"

"Never mind why don't you just go back into your little imaginary world," Millicent said.

"Whatever," I said walking away from them because I had spotted Draco over in a corner talking to Blaise.

"Hi, is anyone as bored as I am?" I asked.

"Yeah."

"Well we could just go outside and get away from the party," I said walking towards the door.

Draco, Blaise, and I went outside. When we got outside I just flopped down on to the ground.

"I hate parties like this, I always tried to get myself into trouble just to avoid going to them every time my Mother decided to throw one of her elaborate parties and so I could get away from the snobby rich guys who thought that they could get anything they wanted just because they had money," I said.

"I know what you mean about the party," Blaise nodded.

"You do know that your Father will be looking for you, so he can present you to the guests at the party and if he can't find you we'll all be in trouble," Draco said.

"You know what I don't give a fuck what he does he's just a big bully who bullies people into following him, and it happens that most of the people that follow him are just stupid, and so help me god if either of you breath a word about this conversation to my Father I will make so that you wish you were never born," I said looking at them seriously.

"Now I feel hurt. I thought you trusted me, Paige," Draco said with a terrible impersonation of a hurt expression.

"You do know that you are doing a horrible job trying to act hurt, you should stick with looking like you are pissed off at someone," I said trying to stop myself form laughing.

"Oh shut up," Draco said.

"You two are quite entertaining when you are arguing with each other, and I do agree not to utter a word about our conversation that we just had. Draco is right we should be going back in because we. If we don't you'll be in more trouble then you'll think," Blaise said walking back towards the door.

I got off the ground made sure there was nothing on the dress robe and then followed Blaise to the door. Draco went in first followed by Blaise and me (Blaise let me go in front of him). Well I hope that Draco won't make me stay in the same compartment with him on the train the whole time. I f I can I'll try to find Ashley and her then she and I can go and talk to Potter and his friends during the ride, unless of course Ashley wants to stay and talk to her friends. I hope Draco doesn't treat me like a little girl during the school year like one of my friends old brother did last year. Of course I think he had a crush on me though. By the time I was down debating on what was going to happen this school year we had already arrived back in the ballroom.

"I think your Father might be looking for you," Blaise said looking over at where he was standing, "Come on before he gets mad and does something that could cause someone to die tonight so hurry up," Blaise said with some wisdom in his voice.

I walked over to where my Father was standing. If he was angry he didn't let it show.

"Come. Let me introduce you to the Death Eaters that have children in Hogwarts," he told me.

"Okay," I said following him around the party being introduced to different people.

By the time the party had ended it was almost one in the morning. So I went straight to my bedroom. I changed out of the dress robe and into some pajamas. When I got into my bed I fell asleep before my head had even hit the pillow.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Dream Sequence

I was walking through what should have been an empty field but it was littered with dead bodies on the ground. It looked like the sun was setting because it was slowly starting to get darker. What in the world happened here? I continued walking through the field until it got extremely dark. I was going to light my wand but I couldn't find it. I turned around to look for it when someone grabbed me from behind.

End Dream Sequence

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I woke up suddenly with a scream. I realized it was only a dream and I started to calm down. What the fuck was that? Where was I and what did that have to do with anything? I must have just fallen asleep not that long ago because it was still early. I looked at the clock on my bedside table and saw that it was five. Well there is no point in trying to go back to sleep now. What am I going to do between now and when everyone wakes up. I better just go and get some coffee so I don't fall asleep. I got out of bed and went downstairs to the kitchen. The house-elves were busy making what looked like breakfast. When they saw me come in they stopped what they were doing and one of them walked over to me.

"What you need, Miss?" the house-elf asked.

"A cup of coffee with French Vanilla creamer in it please," I said.

"Yes, Miss," the house-elf said as another one brought me my coffee.

"Thank you," I said taking the cup from the house-elf.

I walked out of the kitchen and into the dining room and sat down at the tale and began to drink my coffee. After an hour of sitting at the table, slowly drinking my coffee, a house-elf came into the dining room with some pancakes and some pieces of bacon. When I finished eating I went back up to my room to take a quick shower and to change into clean clothes. On my back down I ran into Draco coming out of his room.

"Good morning, Draco," I said and continued on my way downstairs.

"Hey wait. I want to talk to you," Draco said catching up with me.

"About what?" I asked curious.

"About last night," Draco said.

"I don't want to sound noisy or anything, but do you like Blaise?"

"Not that it's any of your business but... He seems nice, but I don't know him well enough to say whether or not if I like him or not," I said looking at him a little surprised by his question, "Why?"

"Just wondering," Draco said.

"Blaise put you up to this, right?"

"Why would you say a thing like that?"

"Let me think here," I said walking into the dining room, "He wouldn't be the first guy to try that one, to find out if I had feelings for them or not."

"What are you two talking about?" Narcissa asked.

"Nothing," Draco said.

"Well come sit down and eat breakfast then."

Draco sat down and began to eat his breakfast (which happened to be the same thing that I had for breakfast).

"You're not hungry Paige," Narcissa asked.

"No, I already ate breakfast earlier."

"Okay, we will be leaving soon to go to the train station. So make sure all your stuff is in your trunk."

"I already did that three days ago. After breakfast I'm going to go up and put all my birthday presents in my trunk and grab a book off my nightstand table."

"That's good."

Narcissa and I talked about different fashions, while Draco finished eating. When he finished I went up stairs to grab the book off my nightstand table. When I came back downstairs by the front door, we left the manor not long after that and arrived at the train station. The driver loaded our trunks onto trolleys for us. I followed Draco and Narcissa through the train station. When we arrived at platforms nine and ten I looked around. Are we suppose to go through the wall that separates the two platforms, but it wouldn't surprise me if that's what we have to do. Considering I have lived in this world all my life not that much surprises me. I just hope that most of the guys here aren't as stupid as they were at Salem. Well just as I thought Draco went straight through the wall. Narcissa told me to go through the wall and came out on the other side. There was a scarlet train sitting on the tracks with steam and smoke coming out of the smoke stack. Draco helped me bring my trunk onto the train. We went to an empty compartment and put the trunks onto the racks in the compartment. I sat down and stared out the window. More people started to arrive the way Draco and I did. The students slowly to come on the train after saying goodbye to their loved ones. As I was looking out the window I saw Potter, Granger, the Weasleys, and Leah arrive. I got up and walked off the train to say hi to them.

"Hi y-" I started to say when someone grabbed me from behind.

"Paige! We need to talk."

"Fuck you Mike and let me go."

"Why should I let you go when you won't even let me talk to you?"

"I take it you forgot what happened at the beach yesterday."

"No I haven't."

"Well then let me go or else there might just be a repeat of yesterday," I said looking towards Potter and the others.

He saw me look over there and then let go of my arm, "But this is important will you listen to me?"

"If you promise to leave me alone after this I might just listen to you."

"Fine I will."

"Okay, I will listen to you then, but make it quick and why are you here anyways?"

"I'm going to Hogwarts this year my dad got a job there teaching."

"Okay so what did you want to talk about?"

"That I didn't mean to cheat on you with her."

"If that's all I'm going, goodbye," I said walking back into the compartment Draco was in.

Not long after I came in Mike burst into the compartment. Draco jumped up and out of his seat with his wand in his hand. Mike came farther into the compartment.

"Get out of here," Draco said pointing his wand at Mike.

"Calm down, I just need to talk to Paige," Mike said.

"We already talked so go away, because I'm not going to listen to you anymore," I said standing up.

"Yeah, but you walked away from me."

"I hate you! I don't want to talk to you or look at you. Get away from me," I said starting to yell at him.

"No I won't go away," he said walking even farther into the compartment.

Draco stepped between him and me with his wand still pointing at Mike. Mike was about to hit Draco with his fist when he suddenly froze. When we looked on the other side of Mike we saw Potter, Granger, the Weasleys, and Leah standing there, only one of them had their wands out, and they were staring at her in disbelief.
