"Come on Harry, you have to go to practice now!" Hermione shouted at the
top her lungs from the common room.
"No! I don't wanna go!" Harry screamed back from behind the closed door of the boys' dorm.
"Oh you stupid git, you sound like my five-year-old cousin!" Hermione was starting to get inpatient now. This had been going on for ten minutes now and they really did need to get to practice. "Harrison James Potter, get your bloody arse down here!"
"Tsk, tsk, such language Granger," said a sly voice from the portrait hole. Hermione spun around, thinking she must be hearing things. But she wasn't. By a tapestry hanging to the right of the door stood her enemy Draco Malfoy.
"Don't look at me like that. It makes me uncomfortable." He stated. Hermione just kept glaring straight at him.
"Get out! Get out of my common room! How did you get in, in the first place?" She said in a low startling voice, slowly she walked towards him with her fists clenched to her side.
"Don't get your knickers in a knot. I was invited to meet someone here and saw you yelling for Potter so I thought I would be polite and say hello. So you can go back to coaxing your little sweetheart out of his bedroom," He said with no emotion while fixing his hair.
"Who in their right mind would invite you in here?" Hermione demanded, a little louder than she intended. She knew someone must have heard.
"Calm down granger, I -" Before he could finish what he was saying Colin, his brother Daniel, Seamus, Lavender and Harry raced down to the common room surrounding Draco. Seamus had his wand out ready and his palms itched in anticipation. He wanted nothing more than to curse Malfoy down to a pile of ash.
"Hermione did Malfoy do anything to you? If he did -"Harry started to say through his clenched teeth.
"Harry no, he didn't."
"Malfoy what in the name of Merlin's beard are you doing here? You should know better than to barge into my place. And if you don't tell me why you are here in five seconds, Seamus will pound your face in while Colin and I hold you down."
"Was that suppose to be a threat Potter? 'Cause let me tell you, an overgrown leprechaun slapping me isn't too scary," Malfoy said with a chuckle. He wasn't even scared, he stood tall with dignity, Hermione thought.
"Alright, Malfoy, enough how the hell did you get in? What kind of Gryffindor would let in Slytherin scum like you?" Lavender said stepping between Seamus and Draco. Seamus looked as if he was going to pounce at any moment.
"I got in because I got the password from the person I am meeting and that is none of your business."
"Get out, now!" Harry yelled.
"No, I was invited here and I am not leaving until my date comes down!" At this point a group of first and second years assembled by the stairs and Ron came through the portrait hole looking confused. Then he spotted Draco, the person he hated more than anyone else. His confused expression quickly changed to a look of loathing.
"Malfoy leave this instant!" Ron shouted from where he was standing, he pushed his way through Colin and Daniel and grabbed Draco's robes. Draco was in shock and Ron easily pushed him against the tapestry. Draco hesitated for a moment, but he snapped out of it and his years of sparing training came into play. He knew Ron was going to hit him and when Ron attempted a blow to his stomach, he blocked it and returned with one of his own.
"Ow." Ron muttered and doubled over. Draco grabbed a bunch of his thick red hair and was going to punch him in the face when Harry and Seamus jumped on him. Hermione and Lavender frantically tried to pull the boys off each other. No matter how much they disliked Malfoy, three on one was low. Lower than any respectable Gryffindor should go when fighting.
Anyone else who was in the dorms came running down and students surrounded the fight from all sides. Professor McGonagall entered the room as if looking for someone then saw what was going on and instantly charmed the dog pile apart. Through all this commotion no one realized Ginny screaming, trying to get to the fight. No one heard her screaming "Draco."
"No! I don't wanna go!" Harry screamed back from behind the closed door of the boys' dorm.
