"Of course not." Narcissa looked down, tracing the lines on his hands. Then she looked up again, "I am just so tired of hiding and worrying. Never mind the fact that we were in constant danger, if the ministry found out you would be put away for life. It is a difficult lifestyle and I would prefer not to live it again. But running is just as high maintenance,"

"And that is why we must hide in plain sight. Throw away all of our dark objects. Be cordial to former Order members in private and public." He stiffens, but fixes his gaze to her hand. 

"I will not risk our life for anything. I have come to...depend on you."

It's that time of the year where I do not want to leave my bed.

[alicefromtheashes-deactivated20]

It wasn’t a discovery, it was simply an observation… a statement if you will. 

A mere thought spoken aloud, really. Are you fond of the cold, Mr. Malfoy? 

[xmalfoyx]

Excellent, er, excellent. 

I find the cold pleasant enough. I don't pay much attention to the weather.

What a startling discovery.

"I hope you’re wrong." Narcissa rested her head against his chest. She wanted to start a family, live the life she always dreamed of but that would be impossible when she has to worry about the Dark Lord all the time. She didn’t want her children growing up in the midst of a war. Besides, she wanted to really build a relationship with Lucius which is also impossible when he has to go on mission every night.

"My dear Narcissa." It came to the same argument, replayed a thousand fold in his head, daily. Risk, reward, pride, family, pain. His tone turned harsh. 

"Right or wrong, we will not run."

"Lucius I - we - cannot go back to the life we had. The wondering, hoping, stressing…" Narcissa bit her lip, the worry clear in her whole being. But she knew she didn’t really have another choice. Either that or no life at all.

"So basically, what you are telling me, is that we will be under command once more just after we thought it all ended?"

[xmalfoyx]

"We can't but we must. That is to say if I am right, which I may not be." His nostrils flare. It wasn't supposed to go this way. "If I am elected Minister, I can hand the reigns to the Dark Lord the moment he returns. Perhaps if he is pleased with us, he will let us...be."

Narcissa gave a small gasp, her hand resting on Lucius’ chest, “Return?" Now her voice was an earnest whisper, like two adults fighting near a sleeping baby, "But that - that is impossible."

[xmalfoyx]

"It isn't." He had hoped to find some shred of evidence to prove himself wrong before telling her of his suspicions. Still, her poise and composure after such news impressed him. 

"I'm doing everything we can to correctly align ourselves for his return. He cannot come back to find us resting in luxury. He would throw us to the wolves."

"Do you think somebody will be out for revenge?" Narcissa stopped dancing and looked at her husband with questioning eyes. "Somebody who was harmed by you or a family member of those imprisoned?"

"In these times one cannot be too careful, Lucius."

[xmalfoyx]

"Revenge? No. We are too high in the ministry to be targeted by anyone with half a brain." He gripped her shoulder and then traced along her collarbone. "I believe the Dark Lord may return."

"New?" Narcissa looked up at Lucius, her eyes portraying both fear and shock. "What news? is something the matter?" 

[xmalfoyx]

"It is too delicate a matter, but I have...suspicions. It is imperative we stick to our story of being under the Imperious Curse, but not to...burn our bridges among His supporters."

"I hope to Salazar that I'm merely being paranoid."

Narcissa smiled, happy to know that Lucius wasn’t the heartless bastard people thought him to be. She dared leaning closer, as kissing him softly on the lips.

"I know it’s dangerous." Her voice was equally soft and hesitant, "But I am in my own home with only my husband to hear. If I cannot feel free here, then where can I?"

[xmalfoyx]

"You are my wife, and I will do everything in my power to protect you. But sometimes, even in our own house. Why do you think I treat the elves so poorly? So they will be afraid to tell tales." Lucius placed a protective arm around the small of her back and returns the kiss. 

"I have had news lately that cause me to suspect...certain misinformation. We must still be careful."

Narcissa smiled and easily fell into pace, “I was scared, you know. Every time you were called away. I had no idea when or if you would return and I hated staying alone at night.” She bit her lip, unsure if what she wanted to say would be a mistake but, in the end, she decided to go with, “I am glad he is gone. It gives me peace of mind to know that you are safe.”

Narcissa nodded in agreement, “You were lucky.”

[xmalfoyx]

He nodded, the realization slowing his movements. She was scared without him. A simple emotion, but one that convinced Lucius that she placed trust in him--not in the Blacks or the Dark Lord. 

"Shh, you mustn't say things like that. It's dangerous, although--," he leaned closer to whisper in her ear, "I am too."

I will age gracefully and live to see my great-great grandchildren. And you will have to live too because I refuse to be a widow. It sounds so morbid.

Alliance plays a big part but the main reason is to create strong, pureblooded off springs. But that sounds just terrible when it is put that way. I have always believed that… That a child should be conceived out of love, and not duty. Or at least adoration. Otherwise the child might feel guilty or even unwanted.

[xmalfoyx]

"And I hope to one day see your future. It sounds immense. You will never be a widow, I was too careful with The Dark Lord. I am too careful. Now he's gone I hardly know what to do. "

"Do you mind?" He takes an arm, lifting her, and after a pause resume the music's pace. 

"I was lucky. Raised in a place where I never saw my mother and father arguing."

Do not say things like that. Of course we will still be alive. And in a hundred years we will be old and senile, alive, and annoying the who-knows-what out of each other… And, I hope, still happily married.

Yes… A little. Well actually a lot. I really want to be a mother - one day - and is that not the main reason we were married in the first place? For me to produce you an heir… Though I - I would really like a little girl too -only if you agree of course.

[xmalfoyx]

Narcissa, in a hundred years we will be well over a hundred and as senile as we will be wrinkled. Married we may remain, but only in our graves. Matching, I hope. 

Do you mean that seriously? I know my mother had mentioned it to me before, but I'd assumed it part of the contract between our families. 

I would agree to any child.
