What Lies Within

Sophie gasped as she got out of the car, looking up at the house before her. Narcissa said it hadn't been much, but this house was beautiful. She turned to Draco who had just gotten out behind her.

"This place is huge." She says, making him laugh and nod. He takes her hand and pulls her into the house.

"Wanna go explore?" Draco asks her, giving her a grin. She giggles and nods. They break into a run through the entry way, their hands linked and enter a beautiful old fashioned kitchen. A house elf stood beside the counter, its hands clasped in front of its hands.

"Master Draco, Master Sophie." He greeted, bowing his head low. "Master Narcissa has ordered me here to serve you." Sophie and Draco give each other glances before Sophie releases Draco's hand and goes to kneel in front of the house elf who keeps his head bowed.

"What's your name?" She asks him kindly. He looks up at her, his large eyes nervous.

"Greenely, ma'am." He answers, his voice squeaky.

"Well Greenely, I would like for you to go back to Malfoy Manor and continue to server there. We do not need assistance here." She tells the house elf who gave her a confused look. "If Narcissa says something to you, just tell her I sent you back, understand?" The elf gives a nod before he vanishes with a loud pop. Sophie stands up and turns to Draco who is smiling and shaking his head. "What?"

"You are way too kind to them." He says, walking over to her, wrapping his arms around her waist. She smiles as she puts her arms around his neck.

"I have a heart, don't judge me." She jokes, making him smile wider.

"Never." He says before placing a kiss on her lips. "Come, let's explore more." She agrees, allowing him to take her hand and pull her from the kitchen. They wander the halls, seeing a few bedrooms, a small bathroom, and a small cute little sitting room. They then go upstairs where they find two more bedrooms and a small bathroom before finally finding the master bedroom where someone had already put their trunks beside the bed. The master bathroom was huge and had a beautiful tub.

"I think I am going to like it here." Sophie says as they step back into the bedroom. She looks around the black and white decor, loving it. "It's much different then any place I've ever lived." She states as she sits on a chair beside the balcony doors.

"Same here." Draco agreed before he walked over to the trunks and waved his wand, causing them to magically start unpacking themselves. Sophie laughed and watched as their clothing and other items zoomed across the room into the closet or into the bathroom.

"You are so good at magic." Sophie tells her husband as the now empty trunks slid underneath the bed. Draco laughed and walked over to her, holding his hand out to her.

"Why thank you, love." She smiled and rested her hand in his, allowing herself to be pulled up from the chair and straight into Draco's arms. "So... how's married life treating you?" He asks, nudging his nose against hers. She smiles and placed a soft kiss against his lips.

"It's been amazing so far. How about you, Mr. Malfoy?" Sophie questions. Draco grins and wraps his arms tightly around her waist, lifting her from the ground. He spins her around until they get to the bed, where he tosses her onto the mattress.

"It would be better if there weren't any clothes here." He said, crawling on top of her and tugging at the hem of her dress. She giggled and shook her head.

"Oh, Mr. Malfoy, you are so romantic." She fake swoons, making him grin.

"I try, Mrs. Malfoy." He smiled at her before attaching his lips to hers. His lips become more and more forceful as the seconds passed and his tongue swept into her mouth to greet hers. They continue to kiss like this before he sits up, smirking down at her.

"And what are you smirking at?" She questions him, leaning back on her elbows.

"This is just a great place to have you." He says, making her smile and roll her eyes. She bucks her hips up, causing him to bounce. He laughed and shook his head. "None of that yet, love." He then goes to the buttons of his shirt and slowly begins to undo them as she watches, her eyes following his hands every move. Soon his shirt is completely undone and he slides it off, tossing it to the floor. She brings her hands forward, moving them across his flat stomach and chest.

"Me likey." She mumbles, making him laugh and shake his head. He leans down, pressing his lips back to hers. He then rolls them over so she's on top and blindly reaches back to undo the zipper of her dress. Once it's open, he slides his hands into the open back of her dress, his fingers brushing across her smooth skin. She sits up, releasing his lips and shimmies out of the dress. She pulls it over her head and tosses it to the side.

"I'm so happy that this is happening." Draco whispers, staring up at her. Sophie smiles and leans down to press a soft kiss to his lips.

"It's about time." Sophie jokes, making him laugh and nod. Draco rolls them back over and grins down at her. She sits up, joining their lips back together as he straddles her. Keeping their lips connected she leans down and undoes the buckle of his belt quickly before unbuttoning and unzipping his pants. He detaches their lips simply to stand up, slide of his shoes and then his jeans. She giggled and watched before she lifted her leg towards him. He grinned, grabbed her ankle and slid her heels off her feet, tossing them away.

"We're really doing this?" He questioned. Sophie moved so she was kneeling on the bed, facing him. She wraps her arms around his shoulders, nudging her nose against his.

"I hope so." She whispers before kissing him forcefully once more. She slides her hands down his chest, his stomach and then rests them on his hips for a second before her thumbs move into the waistband of his boxers. She pushes them down, having them bunch around his feet. At the same moment his tongue moves against hers, he reaches back and undoes the clasp of her bra; she brings her hands up, pushing down the straps and tosses it away. He puts his big hands on her lower back, pulling her bare chest against his, both of them moaning at the intimate contact the bare flesh created.

He released her lips and pushed her back so she toppled onto her back, smiling. He leaned forward, grabbing the waistband of her lace panties and pulling them down, off her feet and tossed aside, just like every other article of clothing. This was it, they were now fully exposed in front of each other, and would normally feel embarrassed or nervous but both of them couldn't help but feel how right this was, and how calm and how right this moment in time was. It was meant to be. They were meant to be.

Draco climbed on top of her, his hands resting on the mattress beside her to support his weight while her arms wrapped around his torso, pulling him against her as their lips found one another once more. Draco slid his lower half against hers, causing a sweet friction between them. Bare flesh to bare flesh. It was so new, so foreign, and yet... so right. Sophie moves her legs, wrapping them easily around her husbands slim waist.

"You ready, baby?" He breaths into her mouth, earning a small moan and nod in response. "I'll go slow." He assures her, reaching down to position himself. She nods once more, detaching her lips fully from his to look up into his grey eyes as he slid into her. She bit at her lip gently, feeling a slight pressure in her lower half, but not near as much pain as she feared. In fact, it didn't hurt at all. It was just an odd sensation, she felt so full. "Okay?" Draco asks her once he is all the way in.

"Yes." She breathes. He then slides out and pushes his way back in at a quicker pace. The friction made them both moan. He did it again, this time when he slid back in, he hit her spot straight on, causing her eyes to close and a loud moan to escape her lips. "Draco." She breathes, her nails digging into his shoulder blades as he picks up his pace. Draco grunts in response, leaning down to give her a gentle kiss on the lips.

Sophie opens her eyes to look at the wonderful man above her, all of his attention and care on her, on them. She brought a hand up, pushing his floppy blonde hair from his face. She tangled her fingers in his long locks, tugging his face back down to hers. Their lips met as his pace quickened even more. She angled her hips up to meet his, both of them allowing small moans and sounds to escape their throats.

Things had never felt so perfect and right in her entire existence. Nothing mattered but this moment in time. It didn't matter that they were already married at the young age of sixteen. It didn't matter that The Dark Lord had set tasks unto Draco that no teenage boy should ever have to face. It didn't matter that a war was starting and the two of them were stuck right in the middle. Those things just didn't matter right now. All that mattered to Sophie was Draco, and all that mattered to Draco was Sophie.

As the minutes passed, they both began to feel a warm sensation spread through their lower half. Sophie felt a vibration setting her lower half off and she knew this was it, this was the moment. She tightened around Draco, both of them finding their releases within seconds of each other. Draco pulled out of her and collapsed beside her, his arms wrapping around her.

"I don't even have words to describe that." Draco states, his voice breathy as he tried to catch his breath. Sophie gave a small, tired chuckle and rolled over, curling against her husbands warm, and slightly sweaty, body. Her head fit perfectly into the crook of his neck, much like it always did. He ran his fingers up and down her arm, his chin resting against the top of her head. "I love you." He whispers into the quiet night, their breathing finally quieting.

"I love you too, Draco." Sophie responds, lifting her head to smile into his shining eyes. She leans forward, pressing a soft kiss to his lips before pulling away. "Let's get some sleep." She suggests. He nods and releases her, both of them sitting up. Sophie walks over to the dresser, her legs wobbly and weak. She finds a plain black tshirt of Draco's and slides it on as he comes up behind her, pulling out a pair of boxers. He puts them on before pulling her into his arms, pressing a dozen or so kisses against her face, causing her to giggle.

"This night has been perfect." He says, she smiles and nods.

"I couldn't agree more." He grins and pulls her over to the bed. They pull back the covers and slide into the warm sheets, curling against one another. Both of them easily find sleep quickly and drift off in one another's arms.

When Sophie awakes the next morning, she finds Draco still fast asleep beside her. His mouth hung open and a soft snore escaped his lips. She giggled and sat up, careful to not disturb him. She moved out of his arms slowly until she was free and standing beside the bed. She smiled down at her sleeping husband before slipping out of the room quietly. Her stomach was aching for food and she thought it would be nice to have breakfast waiting for Draco when he awoke. She knew Draco didn't know how to cook as he'd has house elves waiting on him hand and foot every second of his life, but thankfully Sophie had taken to cooking many of her meals during breaks back when she still lived with her parents so she could cook up some pretty decent meals, without magic.

Sophie easily found the ingredients for pancakes, eggs, and bacon so she set to work, hoping that the smells of the delicious food would wake her slumbering husband. She also started some coffee, needing the caffeine after her crazy night. She grinned at the memory of it.

"I knew it was a good idea to marry you." Sophie jumped at the voice behind her, turning to see Draco ambling into the room. He was dressed in nothing but his boxers still and was running his hands through his disheveled hair, a yawn escaping his lips. Sophie couldn't help but smile at how cute he looked. "I awoke and you were gone. It saddened me that I did not get a good morning kiss first thing." He says as he walks across the kitchen.

"Oh, well I am sorry, sir. I thought I should feed you though." He smiles at her and pulls her into his arms.

"I like food too." He responds. "But I like kissing you more." Before she could say anything else, he leans down, capturing her lips with his own. She pulls away a few seconds later, smiling.

"Go sit down, breakfast is almost ready." She orders. He grins and goes to do as he's told as she goes back to tending the food. She prepares him a cup of coffee just as she knows he likes it and places it in front of him before platting up a generous helping of pancakes, eggs, and bacon. She placed that too in front of him before making her own plate. They sit in silence as they eat, both of them just enjoying the comfortable silence that envelopes them. They don't need words, they just need to be together.

Once they are finished, Sophie piles the dishes in the sink, leaving them for later. She would clean them magically right now if she could but her wand was somewhere upstairs. Plus, she figured she ought to keep the underage magic to a minimum unless absolutely necessary, it was illegal after all.

"So, what are we going to do today, my love?" Draco asks her, pulling her into his lap. She smiles, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"Well first I want to shower, I smell far too much like you." She jokes, making him look offended. She giggles and presses a kiss to his lips. "Then, we should go on a walk. It's a beautiful day and I want to explore the area." She says. He agrees.

"Sounds marvelous to me." So the couple gets up and heads back to their bedroom. Sophie showers first, insisting Draco waits until she was finished. While Draco showered, Sophie dressed in a pair of shorts and a cute tank top with a simple cardigan over it and ankle boots to finish the look. She does her red hair in a fish tail braid and does simple makeup for a simple day. "You look cute." Draco says as he walks out of the steam filled bathroom. Naked apart from a towel around his shoulders that he was using to towel dry his hair. Sophie couldn't help but giggle at how uncaring he was at exposing himself.

"Get dressed." She says, waving her hand at him. He playfully rolls his eyes at her but does as she orders anyway. Soon, the couple are heading out into the warm sunshine, their hands linked together and swinging between them. "So... we return to Hogwarts in a few weeks..." Sophie says, making conversation.

"If you are going to talk about my orders for this term, I don't want to talk about it." Draco immediately states, causing Sophie to sigh.

"I just... have you given any thought about it? I mean... you aren't going to just go into it with no plan are you?" She asks. He sighs and looks over at her, his eyes squinted from the bright sun. They walk along the road, nothing around them but the stone street, and grass and trees on either side of them. They had no idea how far from civilization they were.

"Sophie, honestly, it's our first day as a married couple. I do not want to spend it thinking about how I'm going to murder someone." He says, causing her to look down at the ground beneath their feet. She kicks at a rock, nodding.

"You don't have to do it, you know." She mumbles. Draco groans and pulls her to a stop. He grabs her shoulders and turns her to face him.

"How many times do I need to say this, Sophie? You are not turning into a Death Eater. I will do anything in my power to stop that from happening. It's my job as your husband, understand? So I have to do a few unpleasant things, but I'll figure it all out, I promise." He says to her, staring into her eyes. She stares back, her eyebrows furrowed together before she nods.

"I'm sorry." She whispers. "You know I just worry." Draco breaks into a soft smile.

"And you know I about you. It's what you do when you love someone." Sophie nods, smiling.

"Come on, let's continue our walk." She once again takes his hand and pulls him along. He laughs and shakes his head, never able to keep up with the quick change in subject females seem to be able to do.
