"I could bet you any amount that Manchester United gets the next goal! Look at that forward; they've got this game in the bag." Nott screamed over the sound of the bar to his mates. "Not a chance in hell Theo. My money is on Madrid." "Shut the hell up Zabini. You've been watching the games for 2 weeks now and acting like you know everything about the damn sport." The blonde boy in the corner watched as his friends bickered about yet another one of the stupid bets that they have yet to quit making. One always trying to up the other and neither one actually accomplishing anything. Something to pass the time he supposed. Since the fall of the Dark Lord things had finally started to calm back down and this was their last weekend before returning back to Hogwarts for their final year. Draco wasn't particularly fond of returning to his old school because of all of the bad memories he had already had there but Theo and Blaise had finally convinced him that all was forgiven thanks to the Golden Trio. Bloody Potter, the Weasel and Hogwarts' very own Gryffindor Princess. Ha, he knew that even though the three had taken down the Dark Lord they we're still the three that he gave a hard time in school before the shit hit the fan and they were not likely to forget that. He wished they would to some extent though. He had changed since he had not been around his parents. His bastard father living in Azkaban for the rest of his life and his mother living alone on some island in exile away from him and anyone else that could stare down at her because of her actions. She may be regretful for some of the things that happened, but she was still a Malfoy and she would be damned if some took that kind of title away from her.
At that precise moment his thoughts were interrupted by none other than that prat red head walking through the door with his even redder headed younger sister walking right behind him. "Five says I can get Weasel's face to turn redder than his head in 10 seconds." Malfoy smirked over to his friends and as they both smile back and reply in unison "I'm in!" "Hey Weasel!" Draco yelled across the bar and almost as soon as Ron turns around his face is in fact about 3 shades redder than his hair. All three boys burst out in fits of laughter as he storms off toward a table on the other side of the bar with his sister following in tow. "Well that was officially the best five that I have ever spent" and Blaise handed over the money to Draco. "You know if we had more bets like these Blaise, I think we might be able to get a little more of those Malfoy family funds". Blaise thinks it over for a minute and the other two could practically see the wheels turning and the light bulb glowing as Blaise gets the most maniacal smile on his face. "Oh I've got something that would be right up Draco's alley. 100 pounds to the guy that can get the girl of everyone's choosing to go home with him" Malfoy gives his signature smirk and just nods along as his friend lays out the details. "We all agree on a girl and then each takes turns at trying to persuade that very lucky young lady to take a trip back to his home for the night. No telling her of the bet, obviously, and everything else is fair game." Nott smiles a smile that could melt any ice princess' heart and says "Oh this is the kind of thing I was holding out for. Now I can prove to you idiots that being a sweetheart to the ladies pays off." "Yeah they are going to think your real sweet if they ever find out that you got 300 pounds on the line to get her ass in your bed." Draco laughs at that and can't help but think this over and decide that it really had no downside. He gets a companion for the night, takes his friends money and has the best bragging rights for the rest of the school year. "I think I can live with taking you boys' money this evening. Your money will be used in making my night very interesting with my bed mate for the evening." "Alright so we all agree, now…time to find that lucky lady."
"Oh check out the blonde that just walked in" Blaise says to Draco while elbowing him to look in the direction of the door. All three of the guys give her a nice once over and she seems like a very good candidate until Theo speaks up. "She would be nice but I doubt that rock on her finger is used as a paper weight." A little let down Blaise gives up on his hopes of the blonde and changes his sights to the next victim. Nott notices a very attractive brunette at the bar ordering some drinks but can't yet see her face. Being hopeful however he gets the guys attention to check out the new girl. Draco turns his attention to the bar and starts from the top and first sees a head full of flowing dark locks that have a slight wave to them that travel the full length down the girls back to the top of her low ride jeans where he sees the most killer ass he has ever had the pleasure of seeing. Her jeans hug in all the right places and he can already start to feel his pants tightening due to his main blood flow all traveling south. This girl was a dream, legs that went on forever and ended with the sexiest heels. He would give just about anything to see her bent over in front of him in just those heels alone. "Well she has definite potential" Theo agrees with Blaise and adds in, "Now if we could just get her to turn around." He almost can't hear anything coming out of the other boys' mouths as he just stares at this beautiful woman in front of him. As if she can hear them she turns around with beer bottles in each hand and starts to walk toward them. "Holy shit Drake, do you know who that is?" Draco doesn't even hear what else Blaise has to say because he is too focused on the vision walking his direction. Those long legs he has grown to love in such a short time, the perfect amount of flair in her hips, a tiny waist with just enough meat to her, nice handfuls of breasts. Draco would guess that she was a full C at the minimum which was just perfect to him. He sees this full 100 watt smile and that's when Blaise's words finally start to hit him, when he sees these big brown eyes full of happiness and energy. "When did Granger get to be such a babe?"
"Malfoy you should really close your mouth, that's not a very attractive face." Then that smile is focused right on him as she places her finger under his chin and slowly helps him to close his mouth. Next thing he knows she walking over to the table that has the Weasel's, Potthead and blonde girl that wore the lions head at the Quidditch games a couple years back. He looks back to the boys and they can practically see the steam coming out of his ears, no one makes a fool of a Malfoy. Ever. "Oh boys the bet is for sure on but we're changing some of the rules. We've got the school year to deflower the Gryffindor princess." With the shock wearing off of their faces both boys can't help but smile and say "I'm in".
