A/N- Yea!! My first one-shot Hermione/Pansy!! Please enjoy :)
Disclaimer- The first two euphemisms are from The History Boys and Holly Black and Harry Potter belongs to J.K. Rowling.
Her Euphemism
Now Pansy had never been one to tell the truth, when asked something she didn't want to tell. She would lie. She trained herself to lie to perfection, but it wasn't until sixth year that she learnt about euphemisms. She loved them, why hadn't she heard about them before?! To say one thing when you mean another, the idea was genius!
'A drink'
'Got inside his coat'
They are both excellent euphemisms but to Pansy they were lacking something, though she had used both on occasion. Like last night for instance,
"Want to go for a drink?"
"Depends."
"On what"
"Do you mean, a drink or a drink?"
"A drink."
"…. Alright then."
And the next morning after she had this 'drink', Draco and Blaise were waiting up for her. To ask her something she didn't want to tell.
"What did you do to Hermione last night?"
….
"I touched a nerve."
A/N- Please review and tell me what you think, criticism of the constructive kind is welcome.
