Who: Gwen Montgomery and Narcissa Malfoy
What: Gwen pops in for a visit
Where: Malfoy Manor
When: Saturday afternoon
Rating: G? PG?
Status: Open

Gwendolyn had probably spent more time in at Malfoy Manor since Pansy had moved in than she probably had in the last few years. It wasn't all that surprising really, the girls tended to spend a lot of time over at each other's place and given that Gwen's hope had far more people, and an annoyingly intrusive little brother, made Pansy's place generally the better option. Of course, the fact that things had shifted between them in the last few months certainly helped.

That afternoon, after a rather lazy morning in bed, Gwendolyn decided she needed to see Pansy. They'd had lunch earlier in the week but it was hardly unusual for her to stop by unannounced, especially when there was so much going on. There was Draco's party in the evening and although she was excited for that, at the moment she was far more interested in seeing her friend. Apparating to the usual location for Malfoy Manor, Gwendolyn smoothed down her dress, pulled a mirror out f her bag for a quick check before making her way to the front door.

The wards alerted Narcissa to Gwendolyn's presence as soon as she arrived outside the gate. Given that she was Pansy's best friend, the gate had been instructed to let her inside if the Malfoys were home, so she was able to pass through the gate and proceed along the walkway and to the front door unimpeded.

As Gwendolyn walked up, Narcissa decided it was time she got to know the young Miss Montgomery, especially given that she was Pansy's best friend--and William's sister. She was also on the very short list of people being considered by the Malfoy's friends, and Narcissa was the person who could most easily have a conversation with her. Hallam, of course, would get to know her during her internship, but the fact that he was her boss would make it difficult for him to truly get to know her.

Narcissa had Dobby greet Gwendolyn at the door. The house elf escorted her to the formal parlour, where Narcissa was sitting, sipping on an aperitif.

"Gwendolyn," she said as Dobby showed her in. "I hope you don't mind I asked Dobby to bring you here first. I thought, since you've been coming over so often we should get to know each other."

Gwendolyn was less surprised to be greeted by Dobby and far more surprised to find that she was being led into the parlour. Although she had seen a portion of the Malfoy Manor, Gwen generally spent most of her time in Pansy's room or outside in the gardens. So when Gwendolyn was taken in to the parlour she did her best to hide the surprise, especially as she realised that it was Narcissa Malfoy who was waiting for her.

Allowing her to speak first, Gwendolyn bowed her head slightly and shook her head at the comment. "Of course not, Mrs. Malfoy. It's a pleasure to see you, you look quite well."

	"I'm very glad to hear that, Gwendolyn." Narcissa set her glass aside and straightened in her seat. "Thank you for taking the time to talk to me. I'll let you get to Pansy now, unless there's anything I could do for you?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
