Chapter Two Chores and friends
Hermione lay upon her bed, looking up to ceiling in silence.
For the past week, she had been cooking, cleaning and any other household chores. On top of all that, she had to help Padma and Parvati find their dresses and such for the up coming ball. They only had two weeks until the ball was scheduled to be held.
Every time Hermione thought about it, she got butterflies in her stomach. She still hadn't been able to choose a dress for herself but the ones that she had helped Padma and Parvati to find, in her opinion, were gorgeous. She had never owned anything like that and probably never will.
Parvati's dress was a strapless light pink dress that flowed down. On the very bottom and very top of the dress, was a strip of hot pink that faded into the light pink of the rest of the dress. Around the waist was a medium pink coloured ribbon that tied up on the side.
She had hot pink heeled shoes, with a two inch heel, and had two straps to do up the shoe.
They still had to find a mask and any other item that Parvati wanted to add to her outfit.
Padma's dress was light blue. The sleeves were loose and slightly darker, and instead of completely stopping at the wrist, half of it continued down for about 5 centimetres. The neck went into a 'V' shape and had small jewels that added sparkle. The skirt flowed down and stopped about a centimetre above the ground. On the left side was a slit that went to about a little bit above the knee.
Her shoes were a dark blue colour, with two and quarter inch heels, and had 5 straps to keep the shoe on.
So far she had chosen silver hoop earrings that went to one and half centimetres above the shoulder and had little blue jewels that dangled from them. She still had yet to find her mask.
Hermione was about to close her eyes for a short nap when she heard a soft squeaky voice say 'Mia Mione.'
Hermione turned her head to find herself looking at one of her small friends looking at her.
'Hey Roger,' Hermione said with a yawn.
Roger was one of her mice friends. He was a soft grey colour, had small little ears and a long pink tail. She had four mice friends all up and she loved their company.
'They are working you to hard,' Roger said sadly. 'The way they are working you, you won't have enough time to find a dress for the ball.'
'It's ok Roger, I'll find one before I got to bed tonight ok?' Hermione said softly.
'Ok, just try and get some rest,' Roger said before turning and climbing off the bed.
Hermione tried once again to go to sleep but was stopped when she heard a loud scream from downstairs.
oOo
When Hermione got to the room from which she heard the scream, she almost laughed at the sight.
Padma was standing on her bed and there were three little mice running to a small hole in the wall.
Hermione walked over to her step-sister and helped her down.
'It's ok you know, they won't hurt you,' Hermione said to a still frightened Padma.
'How would you know, but then again, you are little miss know-it-all!' Padma snapped.
'Whatever,' Hermione said. She turned and started walking in the direction of her room but stopped when she heard her name being called.
Hermione walked slowly down the stairs, her footsteps slightly echoing. She entered the living room and found her step-mother once again, sitting on the pink armchair.
'Yes step-mother,' Hermione said, sitting in the arm chair opposite.
'How are you coming along with the list of chores I gave you the other day?'
'I have two left to do, and then I will be finished. Why?'
'Because I have another list for you,' her step-mother replied, pulling a rolled up piece of parchment from hr pocket. 'I want these to have been done by Monday afternoon. Ok?'
Hermione took the list and sighed.
'Yes step-mother,' Hermione replied before turning and walking out of the living room.
She went into the kitchen and un-rolled the parchment and read:
Clean windows
Do the washing
Wash the dishes
Clean the kitchen…
And the list went on.
God! I am never going to be able to find my dress for the ball at this rate! Hermione thought angrily to herself before starting the chores she had been assigned.
A/N I know it was short and i'm sorry, i'll try and make the next chapter longer.
