Sorry for the flipping long wait. Been busy. Watching anime, school, midterms, Christmas. Sorry, I'm a nerd. And I don't own any of the Harry Potter world, sadly. *** means flashback. Now then Memories

Three weeks later, Draco was still grounded for being a "Premature Slytherin" while Isabella spent her days afterschool preparing Matthew's (George's) room. It was the first day of Thanksgiving break and there were just a few finishing touches before Matthew came. She had her Aunt and Uncle's help of course, and she knew the most about him, so his room held a statue of a wolf. Also, his bed was a flame design. The wall was a deep red and orange mix. She was sitting on his bed, knowing something was missing. She sat there for the better part of a half hour, frustrated. Narcissa came in, carrying a plate of cookies. Seeing her niece frustrated, she sat the cookies on the nightstand and kneeled in front of Isabella.

"What's the matter, Isabella? His room looks great!" Narcissa asked.

"Something is missing, something we had at the Weasleys'." She sighed.

"Hmm, a poster or two? Pictures of you together?" Narcissa tossed simple ideas around.

"That's it!" Isabella hollered, hopping of the bed and running to her room, bumping into Lucius. He looked down, chuckled, and went to Matthew's room to Narcissa. He saw her plate of cookies and took one.

"Hey, that is for Isabella. She just went to grab something for Matthew's room. Make your own cookies, Luc." Narcissa scolded half-heartedly.

"I can't cook…" Lucius admitted.

"I can! And Cissy, this is our album. Just Matthew, Serenity, and me, I think. There are copies of all of them, so maybe put some around his room. Can you go through them with me?" Isabella asked innocently.

"Sure." Narcissa said, and Lucius left to pick up Matthew.

The first page held a picture of them at a muggle playground, Matthew and Serenity pushing her in a swing.

"What was this?" Narcissa asked.

***Isabella was giggling as Matthew put her in the swing. All she had on was her jumper that day, and both her and Serenity had light bruises. Matthew decided to take them to the park, as a way of apologizing for his family. That day Serenity and Isabella were being knocked around by Fred and Ron. That day she had woken up to Mr. Weasley calling to her to make breakfast. Serenity helped her but they both messed up the sausage. Being sausage fanatics, Fred and Ron decided to 'get back at them.'***

"We are really thankful to Matthew." Narcissa commented.

"And this one is when it was my birthday, this is when-" she stopped as Dobby appeared with a random pop.

"Mistress, young mistress, Matthew is here." Dobby announced. Then Matthew walked in.

Isabella screamed in delight and ran to Matthew and jumped into his open arms. He lifted her up and spun her around. When he put her down, she grabbed his hand and showed him around his new room. She pointed out everything to him and his smile grew bigger and bigger. When she got back to the bed, Matthew realized something.

"Lady Malfoy, I apologize for neglecting to acknowledge you. My happiness overtook me. As my new guardian, punish me whatever way you feel necessary for my rudeness." Matthew apologized, looking her in the eyes.

"It is fine Matthew, and you may call me Narcissa. I understand that you would happy. She is practically your sister, correct?" she smiled.

At that moment, Draco walked into the room and saw Isabella with a fairly tall red head. Immediately, Draco felt angered. He decided to put his foot down. "Isabella!" he said loudly.

"Draco! This is Matthew, my brother, savior, and helper. Matthew, this is Draco, my cousin, best friend, and the genius who got us out of the weasel hole." She introduced.

"Hello, Draco, thank you for helping a Weasley-" Matthew began.

"Don't expect it often. She is MY cousin, so I make HER happy. You were just part of the deal." He stated.

Isabella was confused, Draco had been so nice, and now more like Potter. Feeling nervous, she crawled onto Matthew's lap. That action made young Malfoy even more angry. Storming out of the room, he made the adults and Matthew feeling confused. Glances passed between the adults and Narcissa followed him. Lucius knelt in front of where Isabella was and began humming softly. Matthew took this time to observe his surroundings. Isabella had created an amazing room. His favorite colors, favorite furniture, everything. As he returned his attention to Isabella, pictures caught his eye. Looking closer, he nearly cried. All of his good memories, as well as pictures of Charlie and Bill. 'How did she?' he wondered.

"Issy, come on speak up. What's wrong?" Lucius asked gently.

"He's mad at me… He's mad at me…" she sniffled, cuddling closer to Matthew.

"Isabella Sophia! He is just worried about losing you. Like how you were when I began talking to Serenity. I am sure we will all be the best of mates. Okay, Issikins?"Matthew soothed.

Isabella smiled and got up. Grabbing two cookies, she headed for Draco's room. Nearing the door, she paused. She heard Draco talking to Narcissa. He seemed calmer, so she walked in. Narcissa walked out, to give them privacy. Isabella handed him a cookie and crawled onto his large bed. Draco looked away and began to eat his cookie. Isabella looked at her feet, unsure. Silence followed the next couple minutes as they tried to figure out what to say. Draco was the first to speak.

"I am sorry I reacted that way. I just didn't want to share a family member I never knew I had. I understand he is practically your brother, and that I should treat him as such." He apologized.

"Apology accepted. I understand that you were jealous; I probably would have too, in your case. You should really apologize to Matt though." She said, hopping off the bed.

As she got off the bed, she tripped over Draco's toys. Cutting her arm on a sharp edge, Draco yelped. Isabella got up and covered his mouth. At his questioning look, she placed her hand over the cut, and within a few moments, it had healed. He was left gaping as the adults entered the room. Isabella just let them see that she had tripped. As they went to leave, Matthew asked the killing question.

"Why is there blood on the side of the table and by you?" he asked knowingly.

"You know bloody well why. I can heal myself-" she was cut off by a silvery doe entering the room.

"Our lord have just killed the Potters. The brat survived the killing curse and is now living with muggles. Our lord has vanished. Black sent to Azkaban." Severus's patronus announced in his grave voice.

A/N HEY GUYS! Sorry, I have a lot to do? RNR
