Hanging Out
Chapter Two
Well *creeps out from behind a rock* I would have had this chapter out sooner, but the hard drive died and the computer wouldn't work for about three days. But here is the next chapter! Yeah!
Like I said before, this chapter is dedicated to my cousins because they have this awesome cabin in the woods and we have to funnest time up there! So, the things that go on in this chapter have to do with what we do up there. So if you don't like it. TOUGH! I thought they should have some fun before their lives turn shitty again.
I also forgot to say in the last chapter, that since the characters are growing up and they are going to age, duh, I decided that I wanted Draco to look like Bradley James from Merlin,(He's Arthur, in case you were wondering.) because I do not want him to be looking like the way he does in the last movie at the end. Pisses me off! OK, I'm done ranting now, go ahead and read.
"Remind me again why we are cleaning the quads with hoses instead of magic?" I asked.
"Because it's more fun this way," Draco answered. "It's a hot day, and I won't get in trouble if I 'accidentally' do this." He sprayed me head on with a big blast of water.
"You are so dead!" I shouted sprinting after him into the woods behind the house.
I came to a fork in the trail on Trail 1. Which way did he go? Max and Roxie came up in front and started to sniff the ground. Together, they began running down the right side. I followed them. Where the hell was he? I continued running with the dogs for about a mile until they came to a dead halt at the water fall. They then began barking nonstop.
"Draco, where the hell are you?" I yelled. "Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny are going to be here soon. If we aren't at the house they'll think something's up."
"Let them." The hair on the back of my neck stood up. I turned around expecting Draco to be there in front of me, but he wasn't.
"God damn it, Draco Malfoy!" I shouted again.
Max and Roxie started up again and headed down to the small lake below. Something was down, swimming in the water, behind the water fall in the small cavern. They jumped into the blue water and swam to where they thought the thing was. That's when their barking stopped and started to freak out. Good thing I had a swim suit on; pulling my cami over my head and unbuttoning my shorts I dove in after them.
I came up for air when I got into the cavern. Max and Roxie were nowhere in sight! How was that possible? The only way out was back out the way you came in. It didn't make any sense. If they came out, I would have seen them. Groaning loudly, I slammed my fists against the rock wall. I didn't have time for this.
"Damn it, Draco! This is all your fault!" I called out.
"That's not a very nice thing to say." How the hell did he get here? He just appeared out of nowhere.
"What are you doing here?" I was so confused. "Where are Roxie and Max?"
"Home. Safe," he said blocking me from moving from the wall. "Unlike you." Oh, I see where this is going.
"Why wouldn't I be safe?" I asked with a glare steam rising from the water. I was pissed now if you couldn't tell.
"I don't know, you tell me." His lips captured mine.
"Draco," I breathed. "Draco, we can't do this right now." He growled.
"Why not?" he asked. "You still owe me from last week."
"I know," I answered. "But not when my brother is going to be here in less than ten minutes."
"Fine," Draco groaned letting my go. "Might as well get back before I get beaten to a bloody pulp."
"You got that right," I laughed. "Come on, we need to go."
"OK." We swam to the edge of the lake and headed back home.
Draco and I came out of the woods about four minutes later, by running of course, and by the looks of things, Harry, Ginny, Ron and Hermione were not here yet.
"See, they aren't even here yet. You worry too much." Draco said.
"If they left when they said they were going to, they should have been here by know," I lied down on the chair that was by the pool. "Can you move? You're blocking my sun."
"How's that?" He asked.
"Perfect," I answered taking in the sun's rays, but it was quite. Too quite. "Draco? Draco, don't start that game again."
"What game?" He appeared by my side. I fell to the concrete.
"Don't do that," I gasped. "You're going to give me a heart attack."
"And we don't want that do we?"
"No, we don't," I stood. "Now if you'll excuse me, I am going to go change out of these disgusting, lake water infested clothes."
"What's the point? You're just going to get dirty again anyway."
"Because if my brother sees me like this," I answered. "He'll think we were rolling around in the woods or something."
"But we were rolling around the woods or something." He smirked.
"Auuuugh," I groaned. "You are impossible!" I jogged up to the house to change quickly.
"You might want to hurry up, Hay! I think they're pulling up into the driveway," I groaned again bolting up the bedroom. "About time you guys got here. Haylee was starting to get worried. Hey, Puggsley." The tiny pug puppy started jumping up and down demanding attention.
"Sorry, I'm late," I apologized hugging them all. "Someone decided to push me into the lake this morning."
"I did not push you in. You came in willingly," Draco said. "Anyone hungry?"
"Like you even need to ask," Ron replied. "I'm starving."
"Of course you are, Ron." We laughed.
"So, Harry," I took a bite out of my cheeseburger. "Why did you decide to drive up? Why not Apparate or use Floo?"
"He wanted to show off his new set of wheels," Ginny answered.
"Makes you feel good doesn't it?" Draco asked Harry.
"Uh-huh." Harry nodded.
"Puggsley, leave Max and Roxie alone!" Hermione yelled at her dog.
"No worries," I watched the three dogs tackling each other. "They're just playing. Tell me why you got a Pug again."
"Well, I had on when I was little," she laughed when Puggsley started jumping over them when they were lying in the grass. That puppy had too much energy. "And when Crookshanks died, I still wanted a pet, so we picked him."
"He is really cute. I'll give you that," I laughed along with here. "So what do you all want to do? It's a day of celebration; we can't sit here all day."(AN: Pugs are cute!)
"I'm up for anything you guys want to do," Ginny said. "Although, I am feeling a bit adventurous."
"We could go on a really long quad ride," I announced. "That is, if you're interested."(AN: Longest ride we had was seven hours! The best seven hours ever!)
"I'm in!" Hermione and Ginny shouted.
"Are they safe?" Harry asked warily.
"If you can drive a car you can drive a quad," Draco said. "But, I think quads are more fun."
"Alright," Ron nodded. "I'm in as well."
"Sweet," I smiled. "But if I were you, I would wear something you don't mind getting dirty."
"How dirty are we talking?" Hermione asked.
Draco and I looked at one another before answering. "Very."
So, for a good ten minutes we had to explain all of the safety rules. I hate the safety rules, but you had to know them. What were to happen if someone gets lost? How you should look behind you to make sure that the person that was there was, well there. What happens of you ran into an animal. That kind of thing. I laughed in amusement when I watched Harry and Ron attempt to ride the ATV's. Ginny and Hermione got the hang of it right off the bat. It wasn't hard, but Harry and Ron weren't having as much luck. They may have needed some Felix Felices. The four hour ride might take longer than we had originally planned. That being said, we packed some snacks and drinks for all the stops we would be taking. There would be plenty of those.(AN: Had to do that the first time I drove. So annoying.)
"Ready?" Draco asked.
"Are you sure Puggsley is going to be OK?" Hermione asked. "Shouldn't we put them in the house?"
"They'll be fine, Hermione," I reassured her. "There are charms places all around so they can't run off even if they tried."
"OK," she nodded. "Ready!"
With a nod, we sped onto Trail 1. Draco in the lead, followed by Hermione, Ron, Harry, Ginny, and then I brought up the end incase anyone got lost or confused. Good plan. It took a while for Ron and Harry to get the speed right. It was either super fast, or if they thought they were too fast, they would slow down to a complete stop. So annoying, but after awhile, one hour or two, they finally got it.(AN: I think they have almost twenty trails up there at my cousins place.)
"I think this was the best part of the ride," Ginny sighed as the three of us were laying on the large rocks that hung over the lake a bit, soaking up the rays again. "A girl could get used to this."
"Unless your husband tries to drowned you." I laughed.
"I resent that!" Draco yelled from the water below. "I didn't try to drown you!"
"Whatever you say, Draco," I yelled back. "Draco?"
Oh god, not this again. I couldn't hear anything. No water splashing. No talking. No nothing. Hermione and Ginny sat up and had a quizzical look on their face just as I did. Cautiously, we crawled to the edge of the rocks and peered down into the water that was almost one hundred feet below. No one was in the water. Where did Ron, Draco and Harry go?
"Where did they go?" Hermione read my mind.
"Ten Galleons says that Draco got Ron and Harry in on the game we were playing this morning," I said. "One that I don't want to play again."
"You're no fun." Ginny, Hermione, and I almost fell off the rocks. How dare they just appear behind us? I am starting to hate the person who invented Apparition.
"What was that all about?" I asked. "You almost made us fall to our deaths."
"We did not." Ron said.
"What are you doing up here anyway?" Hermione asked. "You three are disrupting our tanning time."
"Boo freaking hoo," Draco rolled his eyes. "Ready?"
"Ready for what?" We asked.
"Nothing you need to worry about," Draco picked me up. Oh shit! "Ready for some fun, babe?"
"I do not like where this is going," I clung to him just as he jumped off the rocks, making a hug splash in the somewhat clear water. "You are such an ass!" I coughed coming up for air.
"But you love me anyway." He pulled me close for a kiss.
Harry shouted from overhead and jumped in with Ginny. We laughed. Lastly, Hermione and Ron joined us. Defiantly one of the best celebrations ever!
"What do you guys think? Should we head back?" I asked.
"Sounds like a good plan to me." Ginny agreed.
We started up the quads and headed back. It should have taken us about two minutes to get back, but no, Draco had to take the long way back. The way that consisted of many mud puddles and other water hazards, and I bet he was leading us to the biggest puddle. This wasn't going to end well. Up ahead, I saw hug splashes of water fly up into the air. They got it good! Fortunately, I knew of a secret way back home so that I would not get wet, or wetter than I already was.
"How did that feel?" I asked the five of them when I pulled up beside them.
"Shut up," Harry wiped the water from his glasses. "Why aren't you all muddy?"
"Short cut," I laughed pulling off my helmet. "That's the one thing about being in the back that is good."
"I don't know why you are freaking out, Harry," Ginny said. "I thought that was fun. Really refreshing."
"Same here." Hermione agreed.
"Ugh, you people are weird," Harry groaned. "I'm gonna go change."
"Me, too." Ron ran into the house after Harry.
"My brother does not like to get down and dirty does he?" I asked.
"Not really." Ginny answered.
"I'm going in, do you guys need anything?" Draco asked us.
"No, I'm good."
"Me, too."
"As am I," Ginny said. "So, Haylee, are you excited to leave for Italy tomorrow?"
Ginny and I joined Hermione on the lounge chairs by the pool. Getting more sun. You can never have too much.
"So excited, "I replied. "There's going to be so much stuff to do in so little time."
"It'll go fast." Hermione said.
"I know," I nodded. "And it sucks."
"Where are the boys?" Ginny asked. "It shouldn't take that long to change. They should be out here experiencing this beautiful day with us."
"That's a good question," I stood and grabbed the volleyball that was resting beside me. "What do you think? Should we get them to play with us?"
"Sounds good to me." We started back into the house trying to find the guys.
Sliding the glass door open, the three of us were greeted by Max, Puggsley, and Roxie. But there was no sign of Harry, Ron, or Draco. Strange. They were not in the kitchen. Not in the in the foyer. Where could they be? That's when I heard faint gun shots coming from the living room. You can't be serious!
"No way," I asked to no one in particular while going to the source of the noise.
"What?" Hermione and Ginny followed after me.
"How can you be playing video games on a day like this?" I asked pushing the pocket doors ajar, entering the room where Draco, Harry, and Ron were currently playing Call of Duty. That was just wrong. Stalking over to the TV, I turned it off. "What are you doing?"
"Hey!" They shouted.
"We were about to beat it!" Ron whined.
"Well, excuse me," I rolled my eyes spinning the ball on my fingers. "Why don't we go back outside so we can kick your sorry, little asses at volleyball?"
"Oh, I think it will be us who will be kicking your sorry, little asses. You guys in?" Draco asked.
"Hell yeah!"
"You are going down." I laughed.
"And match point!" I high-fived Ginny and Hermione. "You guys suck."
"We do not." Harry splashed us with water.
"Then why didn't you win?" Ginny splashed him back.
"It's obvious that they were distracted because of our bewitching good looks," I answered. "They were too busy staring at us with Google eyes."
"Yes, that is why we lost," Harry rolled his eyes. "I couldn't pay attention because of that one over there." Harry splashed Ginny with water again.
"You are so mean to your wife, Harry." I told him.
"That's what you think." He said.
"Oh, guys, look at the sunset," Ginny pointed up at the sky. "It's so pretty.
And it was. The sun was settling just behind the horizon, spewing out brilliant streams of red, orange and yellow across the blue background. It was very beautiful. A good end to a great day.
"Alright, I'm gonna go and get a quick shower and change. I don't think my hair will look good green. Then we can have a campfire and eat some mountain pies and s'mores."
"Mountain pies?" They asked.
"They're really good," Draco said. "But it is going to get cold soon."(AN: I could go for about ten right now. I love moutain pies! I also make the best s'mores.)
"It is getting a bit chilly," Hermione stated. "I think I'm going to go change, too."
"As am I." Cool, I'm a trend setter!
I slid the back door open and headed over to the fire pit where the campfire was ablaze. It was about eleven-thirty and the moon was directly above. Bright and full. A slight wind rustled through the trees causing me to shiver.
"Aren't you cold?" I asked Draco standing beside him. He was only wearing a t-shirt and shorts compared to my fluffy pants and warm hoodie. He was crazy!
"No, I'm good." Draco answered pulling me close to his body.
"I don't want you to get sick before we leave for Italy in the morning." I snuggled closer into his chest.
"Don't worry about me," he kissed the top of my head. "Where is everybody?"
"They're changing," I answered. "Ron and Harry are going on about you making them drive through the mud puddle." He laughed.
Five minutes later, Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Hermione came out and sat by the nice, toasty fire.
"OK, I'm starved," Ron said. "Let's have some of these so called 'mountain pies'".
"OK, you can have either pizza or apple," I told them. "Personally, I think apple is really gross, but only because it's really sweet."
"So I take it you want a pizza one?" Draco asked. "What about you guys?" Everyone got a pizza flavored one, but Harry. He had to be the odd one out.
"These are really good." Ron licked his fingers after his fourth pie.
"I figured." I said.
"So, are you two ready to leave for Italy tomorrow?" Hermione asked us.
"I am, I've always wanted to go," I answered. "Draco went once, so he'll be able to show me around."
"Can you speak Italian, too?" Ginny asked.
"Blaise taught me some," Draco nodded. "It should be fun. I haven't been there since I was fourteen."
"And we don't have to go to work for a week." I added.
"Oh yeah, I forgot about work," Draco said. "I could use a week off."
"Lucky." Harry mumbled.
"Whoa, no need to be jealous, Harry," I said. "You shouldn't even be talking. You and Ginny took three weeks."
"So." Was his response.
I laughed at him then gazed into the fire as the red and yellow flames licked the wood. This was an amazing day. Spending it with family and having so much fun. If only everyday could be this way. Life was so good now, and it was only going to get better. Especially this week.
"It's getting late. I think we should head in." Harry said.
"Us, too." Ron announced.
"Aright, see you in the morning," I said. "Night."
"Night." They chorused heading inside.
"Think we should go in, too?" I asked.
"Might as well," Draco answered. "We have a big day tomorrow."
"We do, don't we?" I smiled.
A large gust of wind blew and the fire went out.
What should happen in Italy?
IloveDracomorethanJohnnyDepp- Yeah, I was thinking about that. I still don't know what I'm going to do just yet. I do like long chapters though. Thanks, I think you will like it!
SiriusBlack345- Thanks! I love Phil Collins, his songs are so awesome. There will be a baby Malfoy running around. Eventually ;)
KitKatCyn- I'm glad you liked it! I will try my best with the detail.
Mika97- Thanks a bunch! It took me a while to think about who was going to walk her down the aisle. Harry did come to mind, but I thought that would have been a little odd. I'm glad I picked Mr. Weasley. Hahahaha, yeah, it also took me a while for the vows. I just so happened to be watching Corpse Bride, and the light bulb went off. I think it went rather well. Freddy is way way better. Sorry to burst your bubble. :P
xXMizz Alec VolturiXx- Will do! :D
twilightaddict98- Thanks. I'm happy to know that you like them!
