Chapter 1 – Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
In a tiny studio apartment, two girls were haphazardly pacing the length of the floor. The red head was trying to find the misplaced earring which could anywhere, like a needle in a haystack, amidst heaps of clothes, shoes, handbags, makeup items, hair dryer and other accessories. The petite Brunette on the other hand was fiddling with the hem of her mid thigh dress, constantly attempting to pull it down. Music was blaring loudly and the place looked like it had survived the wrath of hundreds of girls in an end of season sale.
"We'll need to rush now Mione, we're already several minutes late because of you."
"Hush Ginny, you took an hour to get ready. Don't put the whole blame on me." Hermione said huffing.
"Yes but that is because I have spent at least ten hours trying to convince you to come along with me on this double date. Now where's the dang earring?"
Hermione giggled and pointed at the dresser. The earring was hanging innocently on the make shift rubber hook stuck on the mirror. Then when the redhead's mouth form an o shape in recognition, Hermione repeated for the umpteenth time, "But you know how much I detest the fact that you know who your date is going to be while I'm being forced into a blind date. How does this constitute to be a couple's date?"
"The word you are looking for is 'encouraged'; you're being encouraged to improve on your dating scene. The word that you'll be looking for afterwards when this date is over and you're having mad hot sex is 'grateful', you'll be kissing my feet I assure you." Ginny replied, putting on a final coat of lip gloss.
Hermione raised an eyebrow, "Ginevra Molly Weasley. You need not be so crude, you know I'm not the one to do anything of that sort …ah but, does this mean you know who is going to be my date tonight?"
Ginny laughed, "A friend can wish for you to shed your granny skin sooner than later, can't she?"
"No Ginny, not when your brother has just broken up with me."
Ginny sensed a shift in Hermione's tone. She knew she had to change the subject quickly or else all her time spent on Hermione's make up would be futile. She couldn't believe her best friend was allowing herself to be treated in such a demeaning manner by Ron. Never mind her brother, he was a git who would not be spared for Ginny had a devious scheme waiting to be executed. She had tried to sweet talk, lecture and even threaten him about his behavior on several occasions but it seems Ron's mind lived in an alternate universe these days.
It had been three years since they all got out of Hogwarts, two since Hermione and Ron started dating officially and 6 months since it had started getting out of control. Ron would break up with Hermione, have his fill with busty bimbos and come back to her with a sob story, lying about him being sorry and begging her to take him back. Hermione, so obviously still in love with her brother would take him back after some reluctance, hungry for an ounce of attention Ron would throw at her whenever he found it convenient. It had happened thrice already, this one being the fourth time and she was a little bewildered that the brightest witch of her age had let Ron's pathetic cycle repeat for this long.
"Oh forget that idiot brother of mine. Tonight we are two girls who just wanna have fun." Ginny winked. "Now come on, we need to apparate quickly."
Hermione cracked a small smile at that. Ginny was the fifth Weasley who had gotten addicted to muggle music because of her. Girl's Just Wanna Have Some Fun by Cindy Lauper was the redhead's favorite song and she loved to use the title line wherever it fit.
Hermione caught Ginny's arm and they side along apparated, landing in a deserted alley which was shielded from muggle eyes and used only as an apparition point. So far Ginny had not let out a shred of information about their double date and Hermione was more than jittery as they started walking out of the alley. Dates weren't her cup of tea. She had been with only one guy in her 21 years of existence and she lacked in the flirting department. It had hardly been two weeks since Ron had broken up with her, too soon for her to be going out again but she was tired of feeling left out and lonely and after two days of constant badgering from Ginny, she finally gave up and agreed to come, dressed in a figure hugging LBD.
Hermione tugged at the hem of her dress once again and cried frustratingly, "At least you could have dressed me up in decent clothes. I look like a tart."
"But Hermi-o-neee that dress is almost covering your thighs and it even has one full sleeve."
Hermione snorted, "Yes your highness. Thank you for showing such great kindness."
"Oh pish posh Mione. You look like a doll. Look up, here come our dates."
Hermione looked up from her nude peep toes and brightly painted nails and found a pair of grey eyes locked on to hers.
She ran and threw her arms around the man clad in the cobalt blue suit and yelled for the world to hear, "Merlin, what are you doing here?"
