So here is a new story from me! As some of you might now I'm from sweden and we have a show here called let's dance, it is sort of like dancing with the stars I belive. And this story will be in the same line as the show.
And you might be surprised to know (not) That I am not JK Rowling! Wow shocked right (not)?
The Ministry of Magic was of course as busy as usual and in the same rythm as it had used to be before the war, and it had been four years ago. But now there was a smaller problem forming out of the ashes, the world was bored and torn apart. They needed something to bring them together. So that was why a small group of high placed people in the Ministry gathered to try to figure out what to do about it.
The leader of the meeting was Fiona Swan, she was the head of the daily prophet. The other members were people involved in wizard relationships and other social subjects. But they couldn't figure out what to do about this problem. Until today, Fiona smirked. She had been visiting some of her muggle friends and in their home she had watched a show called Let's dance when the celeberties were placed with a partner and danced with them. The idea was very funny and to get the others to agree wouldn't be to hard she hoped. The door opened and her friend Agamenna walked in. The dance instructor.
Fiona stood up and clapped her hands to get everyones attention.
"I am pleased to inform you that we might have a way to solve our problem!" She said and everyone stared at her, a little relived to finally stop going to the meetings if her idea was any good.
"What does every wizard and witch have in common? Before you come with any stupid suggestions I can tell you, it's our famous witches and wizards. Everyone knows them, everyone likes some of them. They always read when 'their' favourite is in the prophet. But what if we took it a step further?" She then told them about the show she had watched and several of them started to laugh.
"And how do you propose we get all of the witches and wizards to watch this?" One man smirked and Fiona smirked back.
"There is a simple way, we publish the time we will start filming the show in the prophet together with a special designed spell, if you say the spell directed at a flat surface it will work as a monitor for you to watch the show. We will also have live audience."
"This could actually work!" A woman said when they had discussed the topic further. "But we need a dance instructor" Fiona gestured at her dark friend who had been standing next to her silent the whole time.
"Agamenna is trained in every dance ever made, she will be able to teach them"
"We need a place for the audience and a dancefloor!"
"There is an abandoned part of the ministry that could work as dancefloor"
"We need designers"
"Well get them!"
After another half hour the council actually started to like the idea and Fiona smiled in victory.
"You are forgetting the question about which dancers you will have" Agamenna said in her dark voice and Fiona nodded. "And how you get them to stay on the show. Most of the witches or wizards you think about dancing will surely not agree without some kind of payment."
"We have to think about that later" Fiona agreed already starting to form a plan in her head. "Which ones do we want on the show?" The room exploded as everyone started to say their suggestions at once.
"Sut up!" Agamenna called and it got so quiet you could hear a pin dropping. She pointed at a short man at Fionas right. "You speak" She said and he jumped slightly.
"Oh I was going to suggest judges"
"I will be one of the judges since I will be the one training them" Agamenna declared and no one dared to say no to that.
"Albus Dumbledore and maybe you Fiona" He said and Fiona nodded.
"I agree, someone taking notes?" She asked and the woman to her picked up a notepad and quill similar to Rita skeeters and it started to write down what they were saying.
"Which celeberties do we want? They don't have to be war heros just well known" Fiona asked and hands shot up from everyone. Fiona nodded towards a young girl with shiny red hair.
"I have several suggestions but I can only think of one that I belive all the ladies in her would like to see dancing. Severus Snape" She said and there was an agreeing moaning from every female in the room.
"Severus Snape? Are you serious?" One of the men said and the girl with red hair smirked at him.
"Ever since that man dropped his glamour he has been rated between number on and two most eligible bachelor every month for two years! And please Terry he is gorgeous!" There was another agreeing moan from the females and Fiona smirked at Agamenna who looked at the strange british women. Agamenna was gay anyway so she wouldn't join the discussion.
"Fine you can have your Severus Snape!" The men said and the quill wrote him down. "And I want to know if Hermione Granger really is as frigid as they say she is. With a body like she has I wouldn't mind finding out myself but I guess this will do" A man smirked and the women rolled their eyes.
"Fine" Fiona said and gave him a disgusted look. "But we need more people"
"Sirius black!"
"Luna Lovegood!"
"Ron Weasley!"
"Lavender Brown!"
"Harry Potter!
"Ginny Potter!"
"Neville Longbottom!"
"Parvati Patil!"
Draco Malfoy!"
"Cho Chang!"
"Gilderoy Lockhart!" The whole room got silent and the man smirked. "What? Every show needs a joke"
"Romilda Vane!"
"Bill Weasley!"
"Fleur Weasley!"
"Remus Lupin"
"Nymphadora Lupin!"
"Alastor Moody!" The whole room started to chuckle slightly at the image of seeing the stern auror dance.
"Minerva McGonagall!"
"That's enough, we will do the pairs randomly later. Now we need to start thinking about how we should build the dancefloor" Fiona said and the woman with red hair frowned.
"Shouldn't we wait until they accept?"
Fiona smirked. "Don't worry, with the prize I had in mind they will accept"
*~HERMIONE POV~*
"Harry what are they doing over there? I have seen people come and go there all week moving things but I have no idea what it is they are doing" I asked when Harry and I walked out in the big entrance at the ministry. There were people walking into one of the bigger doors and they had been doing that for a whole week.
"Let's check, but we have to do it fast. I don't think Ginny will stand us being late for another one of her dinners were we have guests over" Harry joked and I smiled.
"Who's coming over this time?" I asked praying that it wouldn't be Ron.
"Sirius of course, Remus and Tonks and Severus actually. He got back from America yesterday and Ginny invited him"
"I don't think Snape likes me very much, which is strange since he obviously likes you" I said a little hurt and Harry laughed.
"Your crush coming back Hermione?" He joked and I hit his arm.
"You would like that huh? Golden girl woth everyones favourite dungeon professor" I smirked and rolled my eyes. He laughed at me.
I actually never told Harry I had had a crush on Severus in my sixth year, but when he had killed Dumbledore (which had turned out to be only faked) it had turned into confusion and anger. When he had dropped his glamour 4 years ago and stopped being so mean to people all the time he had turned out to be a very intresting man, and HOT! Ever since the Ron breakup drama 2 years ago I had been attracted to him, but I had never done anything about it.
He was getting way to personal fan mail every week from crazy witches wanting to go out with him and there had been several times when he had been stalked by diffrent women. The last thing he needed was for one of his 'friends', I didn't know if we were friends but I was close to him, to like him.
I was so lost in though I didn't notice Harry stopped walking and the person infront of me until I walked into a hard chest.
"Granger stop thinking of me naked and focus on where you walk" I looked up at the smirking Draco and slapped his chest lightly.
"Ha ha, so funny" I said and stepped back from him.
"Draco, do you know what they are doing over there?" Harry asked and nodded towards the big door.
"Actually I don't, it's very secret but I know it has something to do about the entertaining plan they were working on" Draco said with a shrugg. Both Harry and I snorted.
"Yes that plan, how long have they been working on that? one year?" I asked and Harry shook his head.
"Nope, two"
"Yes, well now I have to get back home before Astoria yells at me for being late again" Draco sighed and walked pass us.
"We should be getting home too. I need time to get ready" I said and Harry smirked and we turned around and started to walk for the floo.
"Want to look nice for Severus?" He asked and wiggled his eyebrows.
"No, I want to look nice so I can finally convince Ginny to sleep with me" I said and he laughed.
"Then I better hurry to get ready too so she won't be to tempted by you"
"Exactly" I said and we flooed back to grimmauld place.
"Your late"
"I know, I'm sorry"
"Again"
"I know, I'm sorry"
"You told me you would never be late again"
"I know, I'm sorry"
"Go up and change and I might be in a better mood when you come down"
"Yes love"
I was standing in the livingroom where the others were sitting smirking at the talk Harry and Ginny had. I tried to sneak past the kitchen without Ginny seeing me and was almost at the stairs when I heard her call my name.
"Hermione Jean Granger!" I stopped and turned around not that she could see me she was in the other room.
"Yes Ginny?"
"Your late too"
"I know, sorry"
"And we have guests"
"I know, sorry sweetie"
"Get up and change, we are eating in the backyard!"
"Yes boss!" I said and jumped up the stairs and ran to my room. I picked out simple black jeans shorts and a long sleeved red sweater, it might be summer but I knew it could be cold in the evening. Then I stopped infront of the mirror just before I was planning to go out and looked at my reflection.
It was casual, but I was with friend so I didn't need to dress up ridiculously much. But If Severus would be here... I walked over to my bathroom and put on red lipstick and just a little mascara. I stopped and looked in the mirror again, no this was too much. I removed the lipstick. I still looked plain. I put up my long hair in a loose bun and let a few curls hang down, then I put on reasonably high black pumps and then looked in the mirror again. I liked the more natural look and decided that it had to do and walked down the stairs.
I heard someone whistle as I came downstairs and saw Sirius smile at me.
"Looking good Hermione"
"Thank you Sirius, you look as handsome as ever"
"Really? I was placed second in the most eligible bachelor again this month so I'm feeling a bit insecure" He smirked, that smile let me know he wasn't the least insecure. I shook my head and walked with him into the livingroom.
"Who was ranked number one this time?"
"That would be me" I heard a dark voice say and I turned around at once. There was Severus Snape, black slacks, black shirt with a few buttons undone and a glass of firewhiskey in hand and that half smile that could easily turn into a sneer at any moment. Yup, still hot.
"Oh...Congratulations" I said and I wanted to slap myself for making such a nobrained comment. I knew he hated it so why congratulate him! He rolled his eyes.
"Oh yes I'm so happy" He said and I felt like such an idiot. I had no talent in talking to men, I had no idea what to say to them! The rumors about me being frigid bitch were starting to get to me! I just nodded and walked out to Tonks and Ginny in the kitchen.
"Kill me, kill me now!" I sighed and took a fire whiskey. Tonks smirked at me and then looked at Ginny.
"Calm down Hermione, be yourself and the speach will come to you."
"This happens everytime!" I groaned and they giggled.
"We know"
"And you know I don't like him that way!" I whispered as I stepped closer to them.
"We know"
"I'll just ignore him as usual" I sighed and walked back out again. It felt silly to like a man I had never really spoken to, so just ignore it and it would go away. Harry was in the garden so I walked out to him. Suddenly there was a black owl flying over us and let down a letter which Harry caught with his seeker skills.
"It's to Severus" He murmured. "Severus!" He called and seconds later both Severus and Sirius came out to us. "You have a letter" Harry said and gave it to Severus. Then suddenly I felt something land on my head and saw it was another letter.
"Remus this one is for you!" I called and remus walked out. Then there were both letter to me, Harry, Sirius, Ginny and Tonks falling down from the owls.
"What the hell is this?" I heard Severus ask as he opened his letter.
