Chapter 1-Introduction

Lavender Dream marked up another tally where she wasn't on the block. To many she was considered to be "damaged goods". Crippled by a former master who she had attacked out of rage. Lavender had also used and abused by many masters, as she lay there hoping for death...she heard a young male voice say, "Father....that is the one I want!" she then heard another voice reply.

"Sorry son, she's damaged and dangerous....if you so wish I have others."

"Blueblood.....go and find yourself something from the benders and I'll talk to this gentle-colt." Once the young stallion left the older ones spoke.

"Sir......I'm not selling Lavender to any pony, she has the rage of an untamed Manticore at best and even of she was tamed she has a record of running off. However, I'll give her to you seeing that you're a family stallion all I ask...demand in fact that you treat her well. Hell! Find a way to let her walk and fly again. She lost her kid at sea during a storm or so I'm informed by one of the others."

When the score was settled and Blueblood watched in awe as the threstral mare flew even though it caused a great deal of pain.

8 weeks later

Blueblood say on a couch in the Drawing Room of the family mansion, Lavender was receiving her orders and tasks; he new titanium and aluminum alloy legs and spine including new wing supports were elegant and possessed smooth lines and texture. "Ms. Lavender Dream, besides the listed items on the document, you will also be sleeping in our son's bed chambers."

Before Blueblood could rephrase his mother's last statement Lavender Dream exclaimed in mixed horror and fear of what could happen. "I mean no disrespect or insubordination but I've done similar sleeping arrangements in the past and things happened that had caused me pain and hurt emotionally, mentally and physically and I am not able to do that."

"Poor dear, I see what you're saying and it's nothing like that....you'll have your bed and closed off bedroom of sorts of your own." Lavender began to breathe easily again and Blueblood had wrapped his foreleg around and whispered.

"In this home nothing will ever hurt you again." Blueblood motioned to a maid to fetch some calming Camille tea and Lavender Blueblood was noticing had been shaking. At this moment his sister Fleur-de-lis came trotting in with her Saddle-Arabian servant who had the look of one that had to give opinions on way too much jewelry. When Lavender saw his she hissed and lunged at him and tried to bite his throat. The stallion backed the hell out of the room and Blueblood and Fleur-de-lis had to restrain the threstral which wasn't easy. The Saddle-Arabian walked in nervously and lay a hoof on Lavender and he thought of something to say.

"I remind you of somepony don't I?" the mare nodded and began to cool down and nervously looked around the room. First official day in the house and she tried to kill someone.....horrible luck to have and she thought that she was going to be turned out. "My name is Dessert Storm, what is your name?"

"Lav-Lavender Dream....sorry I tried to kill you."

"You weren't the first mare to do so....Fleur tried to on my first day.....let's leave it at coffee and 1400 bit silk gowns don't mix very well." Fleur gave the stallion a playful jab to the ribs, Lavender felt like she was finally being treated like somepony and not like property.

1 week later

Lavender was going through her cyborg body's tech gear and discovered that it had a built in cellphone feature and GPS. She was flipping out over what she got equipped with that she needed to wake up Blueblood. She bolted over to his bed side and gently prodded him and got assaulted by a fluffy pillow. She tackled him and shoved him to the floor and he dragged her down with him.

Lavender was treated like one of the family like Dessert Storm. Blueblood tapped out as his pillow was smothering him.

Lavender also was enrolled into the university like Blueblood, Fleur-de-lis, and Dessert Storm. Lavender got to meet Blueblood's mare friend, a mare named, Sassy Saddle. The mare seemed nice enough but Lavender felt like she was hiding something. During the first period. Lavender found that chemistry was dull, but she loved psychology and business. During lunch, Lavender met the other friends that Fleur and Blueblood had.

During Gym class however things got rough. Lavender got paired with a stallion for a relay and the stallion decided to be rude. "So Threstral.....once Blueblood is done with with you....can I have you? Or did somepony ask for you?" The comments in of themselves weren't terrible on the surface but Lavender knew what he was asking; she turned on him and the pair fought and Lavender was spewing fire!

"Sick Bastard! I have had enough of your kind! I wish you'd curl up and die in Tartartus!" blows were being exchanged and when the fight ended and the pair sat in the principle's office, Lavender knew she would be in huge trouble. When the parents arrived and the story was drug out; Lavender Dream got a temporary ory 2 week suspension while the stallion got 4 since he had been warned about that kind of talk before.

Lavender Dream cried in her bed, memories were flooding back in and she hadn't noticed that Blueblood sat beside her. She felt his foreleg wrap around her and she couldn't help but sob into shoulder. In the corner of her eye she saw Sassy sitting in the chair beside her bed. She quickly sat up straight and tried to pull herself together.

"Let it all out dear" was the accented voice cooed and gently moved beside her and gently drew her in for a hug. Sassy and Blueblood wanted to find all the stallions who hurt Lavender and end their existences. Lavender Dream sobbed for about 2 hours and Sassy had to take her leave and vowed that she would try to get the fight removed from Lavender's school record.

Chapter 2-Insults

Lavender Dream was at her locker collecting the materials needed for her Calculus class when she spotted the mares from the school's Buck-ball team. Inwardly moaning, these six mares bullied the few Threstralian citizens harshly. Slamming into locker a voice sweet as honey and laced with an edge as bitter as vinegar can be heard. "Oh my goddesses! What the hell are you wearing? Like, that perfume smells like shit." Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that they were rummaging through her saddlebag. The Buck-ball jocks had shown up by this point and things got worse.

"Threstrals stay up late right? Like...all night? Why don't you come to one of the after-parties after one of our games and provide......entertainment?" Lavender contemplated using the small thrusters built into cyborg legs to push the mare pinning her to her locker into the locker opposite of her own.

"Hey! Cactus Rose! Why don't you leave my friend alone! She's half your size in weight damn it!" She knew that voice, it was Blueblood then a few more voices rang out.

"Don't you jocks have.......I don't know......practice to get to or something? Or would you rather get cut from the team because you shoved a girl around." Fleur-de-lis was present and she heard the smart-ass edge oozing like cream from a cream filled pastry.

"I will give two seconds to let her go.....or I tell her to tear into you; I know that she has the aggression and will power to end all twelve of you." Dessert Storm was here and she barely saw Sassy Saddle smirking.

"Fuck it! Lavender give 'em a taste of what you're capable of doing." Lavender initiated the thrusters and slammed Cactus Rose into the opposite locker and then launched foward and nailed the nearest jock in the nose. That procedure ended with Lavender getting tackled by two stallions while a third began to slam hooves into her. Blueblood sprung into action, he nailed the jock delivering blows in balls, the other two he kicked in the abdomen.

"No one hits my mare! Ever!" Lavender crumpled to the floor and she heard the words getting harsher and more insulting.

"That Threstral is only good for the bedroom and miniscual tasks Blueblood! The Threstral whore bit me."

"Cactus Rose, if she bit you? Where is the blood? Lavender Dream is no whore, if anything she's more of a lady than you are!"

"Blueblood darling........you're just saying that because she sleeps with you. My family had a Threstral once a d he kept trying to get in bed with me, my sister, my mother; so we had to put his employment on ice. Besides that little cunt doesn't deserve to be in this university with our breed of good blood and money."

"Insult her one more time and I swear I will let her beat the shit out of you.....you arrogant, stuck up, better than you piece of crap you call a lady."

"Blueblood, I am better than her!" Lavender glared, the malice spewed from those elegant teal eyes, and those light pink lips that adorned Cactus Rose. "She is just cheap thrills Blueblood, I'd wager that in a few months she will be carrying your child in her. Most families get their sons a female personal servant that usually entails sex....or has she not been instructed yet?"

"Lavender.......have some fun!" Lavender didn't need to be asked twice, she tackled Cactus Rose and went for those beautiful eyes and and landed her hoof in one of them. Another hoof found its mark in the rose colored lips.

Cactus Rose flapped her wings uselessly as Lavender used her own and her thrusters to grind her antagonist along the hallway floor. "Never call me a whore again!" Lavender saw a hoof going for her face, so she went instinctively for the shoulder and bit down. Screaming was high pitched and by now the principle showed up and separated the pair and summoned everyone to his office and parents were called. After getting dismissed from the office and after only being back for a week from her two week suspension she was assigned to cleaning detail at the school.

Cactus Rose and her goon squad of thirteen mares walked up to Lavender as she was cleaning a display case. "You missed a spot cunt." one mare stated and slapped Lavender on the back of her head. At this point Cactus Rose began to notice that Lavender had been crying.

"Okay girls bug off, I want to talk to the threstral alone." The mares shuffled off except for two, one called Lilly Joy and the other - Sunflower. "Okay Lavender spill it - are we hitting personal chords that bring back memories from you past?" Lavender nodded and began to cry even more. "You have my word........whatever dignity and honor I've got left....we will only jab 'insults' and jokes that don't cut so deep." Lavender couldn't help but lean into Cactus Rose and cry. Her worst pain was to occur later that day.

The sport jocks went to tell their coach that they were pulled from the next three games....the most important games of the season. They found Lavender cleaning the cafeteria and decided to retaliate. Lavender became aware that she wasn't alone. Her left wing was ripped out of joint suddenly and grimacing a hoof slammed into her rib cage and a couple of ribs felt like they snapped. Defenseless she did her best to block the blows she received. She was a bruised bloodied mess, her cyborg health monitor wasn't shutting up. It was complaint about her broken ribs, and kept count of her bruises and cuts and her concussion she received from when the six stallions slammed her head into a a table edge. She did her best to text Blueblood but it looked like jibberish when she sent it. Suddenly magic engulfed the stallions and hurled them across the cafeteria. The principle was called and he was furious. Lavender cried into the shoulder of Sassy Saddle while Blueblood dealt blows up to the point when the principle had shown up.

Blueblood thanked Sassy Saddle who had to take leave for a foal-sitting gig. "I got you Lavender you can tell me what they said later."

"They called me all sorts of things and said they wanted to do things to me. Why am I causing your family name such disgrace? I've been in more fights now than when I was in grade school.

"Ponies react badly sometimes when they meet someone different than them." Without thinking, Blueblood planted a gentle peck on Lavender's cheek and gently lifted her from the floor and escorted her to the nurse's station for a check over. "By the way cupcake........your spelling needs help." Lavender raised a Hoof to jab him but it hurt too much to do so, so she stuck her tongue out at him.

"So.........were onto nicknames now? Can't wait to hear what your mare-friend has to say." Blueblood just then realized what his passed actions implicated and he knew his family will be hearing about it at dinner that night.

Chapter 3 - Secrets Unfurl

It was a warm Spring morning, ponies bustled about the busy open air market. Lavender Dream was sent by Blueblood to mail a stack of letters and do some shopping. Walking merrily across the park our young Threstral saw something that made her blood boil. She was walking along and saw Sassy Saddle with another stallion, she was in a place for a convenient photo shot. Once she completed her task she counted the bits that Blueblood gave her to get herself a special treat.

Sugar Cube Corner - Fillydelphia Branch

Walking into the new Sugar Cube Corner, she froze and made it look like she was calculating something on her forelegs and snapped another photo. Sassy Saddle was there with the same stallion from earlier. Lavender Dream knew that she will be keeping tabs on the duet.

With the Spring dance at the University coming in a few months and knowing how much Blueblood loved Sassy, she needed more Intel before she had to break his heart with her information. After few months of photoshooting Sassy with the other stallion it was concrete solid proof that Sassy was cheating.

6 weeks before the Spring Dance

"Master Blueblood...I need to give you this but promise me that you won't channel any malice at me. These photos in this folder were collected over the course of five months; I am not trying to cause problems just trying to help you not get your heart broken. "

"I promise" as Blueblood flipped through the photos his rage was becoming evident. He stormed toward the door.

"My lord, maybe you should calm down first?" Blueblood shoved her out of the way and stormed down the stairs. Lavender followed him and all the way to Sassy's home. When he knocked the butler who had answered said that Sassy was busy. The noises floating down the stairs said other wise. Blueblood stormed up to Sassy's room and pushed the door open. He saw Sassy in bed with another stallion.

The stallion stood, "A knock would've have been appropriate my old friend."

"And stealing my marefriend isn't messed up? I thought I knew you better than that Fancy Pants!" The two began to deliver blows and were getting violent. Lavender got in the middle to break them up and got a solid left hoof to the face. The fight ended when the recently hit Lavender was hurled by Fancy Pants over the stair banister.
Lavender had caught herself as she was holding on Blueblood watched helplessly as he was pinned to the wall and Sassy walked over smirking. "You little whore...pity you had to go poking your nose into everything."

"The only...real pity....is that you weren't lady enough to be faithful to a stallion who had given you his heart! That is something not to be toyed with...back home you would have been burnt alive after being dragged the streets getting humiliated!" Sassy had heard enough raising a vase Lavender braced for impact. She felt herself fall, then hit something made of marble and then the floor. Sassy was at the bottom waiting for her.

Lavender's health system summed up injuries before the cyborg legs went into shut down mode due to the damage done to them in the fall. Defenseless Lavender panicked and began to cower under Sassy's gaze. Sassy smirked as she raised one of her father's golf irons. Lavender instinctively tried to block her face. After a few moments Blueblood had used his magic to blast Sassy away and letting Sassy know that they were over.

A few hours later

Lavender woke up in a hospital with a battered and bruised and yet smirking Blueblood looking down at her. "Hey Cupcake you're alive! When I got you in here you were on the cusp. Do Threstrals heal quickly or something because you shouldn't be awake yet?"

"Seeing your face.....I wish I was still asleep...cuz that is only a face your mother can love." Lavender then proceed to stick out her tongue.

"Easy Cupcake, by the way I have the guy who built those coming over to fix them." At that moment, a filly about eight years old strode and sat on the ledge of the bed. Blueblood noticed the tag in her ear was the same as Lavender's and it was the one he and his family used and it bore the family seal upon it. The filly also lugged in with her a massive suitcase.

"Lord Blueblood I presume?" She asked looking a tad wearied from her quest; your folks sent some stuff for your stay here and let you that they just purchased me. The name is Ocean Breeze at your service. They knew you'd ask about my tagging choice and I'll go ahead and answer your thoughts now." She paused and looked at Lavender Dream then back to Blueblood. "I'm Lavender's daughter, and yeah everyone thought I was dead after being tossed overboard like unneeded cargo another slave ship picked me up. To be perfectly honest.....it was worse than the first, the crew were to umm........play with the cargo except for me and I think the captain wanted me for himself."

"So, Half-Pint are you hungry?" To be honest Ocean Breeze was starving and didn't want to say it in those terms.

"I'm a little hungry" stomach betrayal kicked in, "I hadn't eaten since lunch sir."

"There is a cafeteria downstairs and go get yourself some food."

"Aren't you afraid I'll run off with your bits?"

"I gave them to you so they're yours and besides if you're like your mother I know can trust you." Ocean Breeze gave him hug trotted merrily on her way. He then saw his trust tech repair and tech informant Greenfield and his Equestrian Royal Army Captain retired wife Makita who most of the gear they needed to test Lavender's cyborg legs. Behind them came in a mare and stallion he'd only seen a few times; the next set were Lenova and her husband Flytrap. As they set to work Lenova dropped the note that her brother and ended some royal duties in Threstralia early to personally look into this incident and his partner Sparks had already started a full investigation.

As the night drew on Blueblood dozed off on the spare bed to the sounds of hushed whispers; overhead Ocean Breeze hung on an oxygen line support arm studying her new master. What was it that made her mom like this guy?

Chapter 4: First Day of School

Ocean Breeze trotted along the hallways looking for her classroom, she bumped into the hall monitor who looked at her incredulously, "Hall pass miss?"

"No ma'am, not yet I'll get one soon."

"Kid, mom was talking about you this morning. I'm Morning Blaze and we're in all the same classes so just hang with me and you'll be fine." As they walked along, a few colts jeered others made a few minor cat calls. The other fillies walked up and voiced their thoughts.

"Where the hell did you come from? Shouldn't be home cleaning or something? We mean that stud in your ear says you belong to a household." Half the laughed and vocalized similar sentiment, the other half were cordial and tried to remedy the situation.

"Girls she belongs to the house of Lord Chancellor Spearpoint! If he hears we mistreated someone of his household.....our fathers could potentially loose their council spots or any other jobs! That isn't touching what Morning Blaze's father can do since our parents make mortgage payments to him!" The one making the argument was named Leverage. She was adorable and a little taller than Ocean Breeze but shorter than Morning Blaze. The leader of antagonists was named Heartbreaker (she was so named by her mother because the day she got her cutie mark she had broken her parents hearts).

Once in the classroom, Ocean Breeze sat at an empty desk when a colt twice her size stormed up. "Hey that's my desk!"

"Sorry......um I didn't know..." her voice trailed off as she never got his name. "I'm Ocean Breeze and you are?"

"Double-Tap now move it!"

"I was here first, you can't just shove ponies around."

In two hits Ocean Breeze was on the floor clutching her nose and glaring up at her attacker. Double-Tap was on top if her in an instant dealing more blows. Ocean Breeze tried to fight back but couldn't make any headway. A blur and a familiar voice was heard, "Double-Tap....the coward who picks fights with fillies half his damned size." Through her watering eyes Ocean Breeze saw Heartbreakers, the unicorn was smirking now at Double-Tap who was still furious. "If I were you....I'd walk away right now."

"You're no better! You just this morning told her that she should be cleaning up at her master's home."

"That fact was due to the stud in her ear, but I didn't lift a hoof to try to mash her in a puddle of sea foam!" Ocean Breeze cringed at that mental image and just then the teacher showed up.

Their teacher a young mare named Snowflake was a light blue with a white mane. The latter after getting some Intel sent Double-Tap to the principal while she looked Ocean Breeze over. Morning Blaze and Leverage flanked Ocean Breeze by having her sit between them. Heartbreaker sat behind Ocean Breeze, and during class, which was history for the first session Ocean Breeze didn't understand hardly any of it. The rest of her day at school was dull but at least Ocean Breeze had friends. She was curious about Heartbreaker who was like an enigma to her, the filly would seem to hate her then the next moment defend her.

Meanwhile

"I do hope Ocean's doing okay? I know Morning Blaze is with her Cactus Rose but I am fearful."

"Lavender Dream, that filly is doing fine I'm sure of it...unless something happened and she told them not to call you. Besides, Morning Blaze has the middle class filly named Leverage who loves anything involving your homeland."

"Maybe I'm worrying too much, I'm sure Blueblood would say the same or even his sister Fleur-de-Lis or the associate Dessert Storm. I hear that Sassy and Fancy Pants went rogue and Knuckles and Sparks are still hunting them. My vitals are back to their norm.....save for this dammed concussion."

Ocean Breeze

Ocean Breeze sat alone eating her lunch when Morning Blaze and Leverage made an appearance and joined her. Across the cafeteria they saw Heartbreaker, alone and dejected. Ocean Breeze walked over to invite her to join her and her friends.

"Hey, um, Heartbreaker wanna join me and my friends?"

"I'd rather not.....its not you....it's me Breeze I'm in middle-class family with a step brother who hates me, my older stepbrother is at the University and I'm illegitimate and I cannot seem to let my step father get close and I push my birth-mother away. I don't think I'm worth the trouble."

"Sure you are, you stood up and defended me against Double-Tap earlier and that has proven you have more heart and courage than others let you share. Well anyways, there's a spot if you change your mind."

A few moments passed when Heartbreaker showed up, "Is the invitation still open?" Ocean Breeze nodded as she tried to keep milk come spewing from her nose from laughing at a joke Morning Blaze had just told. Ocean Breeze explained what had cracked her up as Heartbreaker just bit in a few chips and began to choke on them from the freshly explained and retold joke.

End of Day

Ocean Breeze trudged up the circular staircase to put her books away and saw her mother and Blueblood discussing the Spring Dance and she overheard them in some detail before they turned to her. "Blueblood you should find a date, there are plenty of mares to be had."

"I don't want just any mare besides it's too soon."

"What if you took my mother just this once?" Two pairs of eyes turned toward Ocean Breeze, "I mean that necklace that you bought for you ex girlfriend is a complimentary color for my mother's color tone."

"I'll figure it out, so Half-Pint how was your day at school?"

"Well, Blueblood sir, I got slugged in class, insulted in the hallway but besides that I'm making friends and got a history exam this Friday."

"Why wasn't I called?"

"Well mother I told them or more liked begged them not to call you."

"They can always call me, your my daughter and don't feel like you have to deal with bullies on your own." Ocean Breeze nodded and dinner was then called; with a week and a half he contemplated asking Lavender to be his fate already, she was loyal, honest, kind, and she cared enough to let him know that Sassy was not who she claimed to be.

The Dance

The Spring Dance was the following week and Lavender Dream had several ask her to be their date but she politely and flatly turned them down. She was just a household servant after all, and Dessert Storm had been given his freedom but he stuck around of his own free will. Blueblood's second best friend after the back stabbing Fancy Pants was one stallion named Filthy Rich.

"Blueblood....is Lavender holding out for a certain stallion to ask her to the dance? She turned me down and many others."

"Well..... I've entertained the concept but her social class of being a servant to me will be frowned upon."

"All I know Blueblood is that she is the most loyal creature I know and the most caring. Look how she handled the item of Sassy, she gathered Intel before laying an accusation and even then she tried to tell in the most tactful way possible."

4 days till the dance

Lavender Dream had been summoned to the Drawing Room, she had overheard Blueblood asking his father Spearpoint about her. Nervously she entered and Ocean Breeze was already there looking a bit pensively toward her. "Lavender......I first want to give you this document signifying your freedom as much as Ocean Breeze. Next item that needs addressing is......will you be my date to the dance? I know it will seem weird and all, but you've been there a lot for me and my ups and downs in the past months dealing with my break up issues. However, you loyalty and kindness through it all has been speaking volumes."

Lavender looked lost in a sea of emotions, all she could manage at the moment was a vigorous nod. When she became coherent she was verbal enough. "My lord, I can't thank you enough for the freedom! To be honest I didn't think I'd ever be free again! Touching in your asking me to be your date.......of course I will. I was dreaming against all odds that it would happen."

Blueblood Then presented the necklace which would've been Sassy's which so happened to be lavender in color. "Allow me to consumate the relationship the traditional way that our family has done for generations." Fleur-De-Lis clapped her hooves together giddily.

"Now I have a shipping partner! Tomorrow Lavender we will go and buy your the perfect formal!"

"But Fleur-De-Lis, Blueblood, I know nothing of dancing and how to be prim and proper......like all of the other high class ponies. I do my best I'm still lacking."

Dessert Storm cringed as he knew some smart-ass comment was on its way. Fleur smirked, "If any pony hassles you just deck em! For real though we can teach you how to dance and you've been to our high class socials so you have been spot on then, just use what knowledge you have attained and use it."

During the shopping process and trying formals on, Ocean Breeze giggled watching her mother get flustered. The dance lessons after the gown was purchased was humorous. However, on the night of the dance Lavender looked as if she had done this sort of thing her whole life! Those who leered at her and saw her as a servant girl saw her behave in a manner equal to their own social class.

Blueblood requested that to the DJ to play a Threstralian Dance number from a record he had bought and learned to dance to from another Threstral. The requested song was played when the dance was supposed to end, 12 AM sharp. Lavender Dream ear twitched as she knew the tune's distinctive sound of her country, and when Blueblood asked her for the final dance she was awed that he actually took the time to learn it perfectly. As the song's Finè hit, Blueblood learned in for a kiss. "Just this one time Blueblood!" Lavender whispered softly into his ear. The kiss was a bit awkward but it was sweet. Cactus Rose and the rest of the cheer squad held up signs marked with the number "10" and cheered loudly.

As the duet walked home the eight blocks down pavement, Lavender playfully jabbed Blueblood. "My Lord.......I want to thank you for the evening. Furthermore I hate to put a dampener on things but look behind us." In a reflection he saw Sassy a few places behind them. He glared and noticed a police cruiser with the windows down and the officers filling out a report.

"Gents, behind us a few places is Sassy Saddles she is wanted for assault and battery a few weeks back on my girl here."

The officers looked and nodded, and just a few seconds Sassy was in the car on her way to jail. Blueblood had to ask, "What is the lowest and highest decibel you can hear?"

"Lowest sound I can hear is some pony breathing or walking at about ninety yards, highest sound I can hear and tolerate is subsonic.....or the sound of a suppressed pistol at about ninety five yards."

"That is impressive, so you can hear Fleur snoring from across the house?"

"Actually that is Dessert Storm snoring, Fleur talks in her sleep. For the love of Celestia don't tell her that or she'd prank me in my sleep." Blueblood and Lavender had a pleasent chat and soon the we're home and found the family and a few servant waiting to hear how the night went. After a brief run down, Fleur and Desert Storm had been home since about 10.45pm due to Fleur's curfew being in place.

Blueblood and Lavender realized they were past their curfew and moaned, it was 12.35am their curfew was 12.15am. When they explained and showed video proof, the family soon heard how Blueblood had learned a Threstral dance to do with Lavender without her knowing about it so they could share a special moment. Because they were past curfew they got assigned to kitchen detail for a week! Fleur presented Blueblood a frilly maid's apron and Lavender snickered, all Blueblood could do was stick his tongue out at his sister before heading to bed.
