Book Club
Book Club
I do not own.
A.N; Well this was a little more popular then I first thought it would be, I'm glad you seem to like it though. I have a few plans for this, and hopefully it will be quite entertaining for you all.
Thanks for all your lovely reviews, as you can tell I did my research into characters and paintings, if you didn't pick up – each character does appear in the books.
Chapter 2;- Summary; Hermione begins to start her book club. The gossip starts, and Harry and Ron are listening to every word.
So here is Chapter Two; Book Club.
Chapter Two; Class In Session.
Hermione sat down and opened up a book, she read the first couple of lines and then she duplicated it, then again and again until she had enough copies of it to go around.
"The copies only last twenty five minutes, so we'll just spend twenty five minutes on each topic. That sounds pretty fair to me, if you disagree feel free to leave and you won't be invited back." Hermione smiled, and a couple of the girls tutted.
Ron and Harry smiled too, typical Hermione. They still had absolutely no idea what Hermione was doing, they had heard of rounders before, but had never seen it been taught so they assumed Hermione was still just teaching the basics.
"We're starting with astrology, Millicent – I heard this is your issue." Hermione smiled.
Pansy sighed, everyone looked around at her.
"Oh for goodness sake Pansy – stop moaning will you!" Millicent said to her friend.
"Sorry, I cant help it can I!" Pansy replied.
Hermione sat down, of course book club was an amazing idea but with all these girls and one teacher it was inevitable that no learning was to happen.
"Come on the Pansy, you may as well spill." Lavender said, hoping to get some gossip.
"It's Draco, he's being weird at the moment." Pansy said, looking down, she looked a little upset. Hermione couldn't really care about what Draco was doing at the moment and she seemed to be the only one with this attitude because everyone else seemed to want details.
Millicent folded her arms, this was probably the fiftieth time she'd have heard this story, she rolled her eyes and Hermione decided to ask,
"So?" Hermione asked, she sounded like she couldn't care less, but no one else picked up on it.
"He's meant to be my boyfriend, we've had scares before but since the last one he's not been the same." Pansy explained.
"Scares?" Hermione asked, blondely.
"Pregnancy scares." She said with an expression that screamed 'Dumbass.'
"You've had sex?" Hermione said, regretting it as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Hermione, we're been going out for eight months. What else were we meant to have done after all the public displays of affection possible? We had to take it private, and since we have he's been weird."
"Pansy, we're meant to be revisin-" Hermione started
"You know what – Harry is being a bit silly at the moment too." Lavender added.
"Oh, tell us!" Ellie said, uncrossing her legs and leaning into the circle.
"Well, we – you know, and he just has been acting like a twelve year old since. Not talking to me until I talk to him and all that silly stuff." Lavender said.
Harry gave a funny face.
"It's true mate," Ron whispered, "You shouldn't do that, she might think she did it wrong."
"She didn't." Harry smirked.
"Well maybe you both should have kept your knickers on and then none of you would be in the predicament." Hermione said.
"We all know you about you Hermione, don't play Virgin Mary!" Millicent said, sitting down.
Hermione's cheeks went a little bit pink, "What are you talking about?" She asked them. She thought she'd managed to keep her private life, private. Apparently they all knew except Violetta.
"Hermione isn't a virgin – well fuck me!" Violetta shouted, a little loud. The room echoed.
"Come on then Granger, spill." Hannah said.
"Oh goodness me." Hermione said, "It's not even a big deal, I've had sex with Ron and Krum." She immediately regretted saying anything, her face went a little red, but she wasn't that embarrassed, only at the fact that she was gossiping with her enemies, and the person she was talking about younger sister was in the room.
"Not a big deal?" Ginny said, then she went quite again.
"Get in the Ronald!" Harry gave Ron a high five.
"Thanks mate." Ron had a cheeky grin on his face.
"Were you with any of them?" Pansy asked.
"No, but it was obvious me and Ron were going to do something, and since we have we've just had a more open friendship." Hermione was getting a little bit more comfortable talking about this kind of stuff.
"Hermione, you have a fuck buddy!" Hannah smiled.
"Not heard anything about you yet though Hannah, come on." Hermione was getting into the gossiping thing.
"I've had no one." Hannah said, straight-faced.
"Shut up, I know for a fact you shagged my Draco." Pansy said, "Don't worry, he's had worse." Pansy smiled.
"Pansy, he had me. I've had no one." Hannah smiled, she had a dark humour.
"Who else had you though?" Millicent said.
"You name him, I'll tell you." Hannah said.
"Neville." Lavender asked.
Hannah shook her head.
"Harry?" Lavender asked again.
Hannah nodded.
Lavender looked shocked.
Ron whipped his head round to Harry, he hadn't heard about Hannah, Harry hung his head and hit himself on the head.
"Blaise?" Hermione asked, she had a small feeling for him but she couldn't work out what it meant.
"Once – drunk." Hannah laughed.
"Why do you care if Blaise had her then Hermione?" Ellie asked.
"Because earlier he just pecked me on the cheek after Malfoy was a prick. Wondered if he was worth my time." Hermione smiled.
"Hermione's a hoe!" Harry whispered.
"She's good though." Ron smiled.
"I'm failing a class here, help me please." Millicent said interrupting the gossip.
"Oh come on Milli, you shouldn't be like this. It's only a predicted grade. We have ages until the next test, you're a straight O student, one little session isn't going to matter. Besides the books have vanished now." Pansy said.
"Well, if I cant study here, I'm going to the library." Millicent stood up.
"What have you got to hide then Millicent? As soon as the gossip started you wanted out, I could tell by your face." Ginny asked her.
"None of your business." Millicent said, "Any you haven't said anything anyway!"
"I will if you will." Ginny said.
"This is purely for gossip I'm telling you people this by the way. It doesn't go out of this room, and if I hear it anywhere I'm holding you all responsible." She said, they all nodded, "I have been going out with someone for like three years, which is why I don't get around. I don't want anyone to know because, well…"
"Oh it cant be that bad." Ellie said.
"Well I'm not the nicest to the majority of muggle born people, and my boyfriend is muggle born." Millicent gave an uneasy smile.
Pansy turned round so fast she could have given herself whip-lash.
"Why the fuck did you not tell me this?" Pansy said, insulted.
"You never asked. Far to concerned with Draco and your issues." She folded her arms.
"Come on the Weasley." Millicent said, crossing her legs.
"That's far from gossip, what's his name?" Ginny said tapping her chin.
"Lily Evens' brother, Charlie." Millicent said.
"He's like twenty." Violetta exclaimed.
"I am seventeen, it's not even bad." Millicent said, "Anyway, spill Wealsey."
"I've got nothing." Ginny smiled.
"Then you'd better make up some juicy shit before I box you in the nose for making me say all that stuff."
"Okay, I've got something, and it's not made up." Ginny rubbed her hands together, "I happen to know that Perpetua Gorden has a little scratchy problem downstairs, and she immediately started this business the day after the deed was done with none other that Crabbe. Looks like he's living up to his name." Ginny said.
Crabbe had lost a lot of weight, he got a lot of female attention now. Bulked out, typical rugby player now, but people tended to be put off because of how he was before. Also his lack in communication skills was off putting, grunting all the time. But none-the-less reasonably okay looking.
Everyone was shocked, Perpetua was such a good girl, she never got in trouble and often got merited for her continual progress. She wasn't very attractive, she was a little larger than usual, but with curves came bumps it the upper region and the boys noticed. Her hair and eyes were her best feature, her body was probably the worst and her personality was barely existent. She rarely spoke and no one could understand that she had had sex, and with the recently reasonably okay-ish Crabbe.
"How do you know? If all you got is a couple of scratches then-"
"This is probably the biggest secret I could tell you, but I'm in the mood for sharing. You know that confessional Dumbledore set up for everyone to get things off their chest in a strictly anonymous way. Hello, I am the person who sits behind that glass and lets you know you are forgiven. I got dirt on everyone, even you lot sat here." Ginny smiled.
Everyone else gave a little clap, they heard a slam as Harry and Ron left the room in a hurry, they got up to check and saw nothing but they decided to cut their meeting short. They arranged to meet back up next week where revision was a must. And they all promised to keep what they had heard to themselves.
"Ginny knows everything!" Harry said.
"So..?" Ron asked.
"She knows things about you too, you went there as well."
"I did?" Ron asked.
"Yes, we come back from Hogsmeade and went there."
Ron's eyes opened, "Shit."
"She knows I had that thing for her!" Harry said.
"Why are you telling me this?" Ron said, a little disgusted.
"Because I'd rather you hear it from me, than us overhearing her talking to the girls again.."
Draco walked passed.
"Tut, listening in on girls talking. How rude!" He smiled to himself.
"Very informative though Malfoy. Heard a few things about you and Parkinson." Ron smiled.
Draco looked around.
"A few scares, but since the last one he hasn't been the same." Ron continued.
"What the fuck!?" Draco shouted.
"Calm down Malfoy, we're just repeating what we heard, straight from the horses mouth." Harry said.
"When did you hear this?"
"A minute ago, there will be more next week." Ron said.
"How do you know?"
"Hermione's teaching the girls rounders. And we're learning so much." Harry smiled to Ron.
"I heard Granger has started a book club."
Ron and Harry looked at each other.
"Where about is this club being held, next time I'm coming by." Draco said.
Harry and Ron showed him the room, and explained about the invisibility cloak. This term was going to be interesting to say the very least.
Draco paced up and down the corridor waiting for Pansy to come out of her room, he couldn't stand waiting any longer and walked in on her shaving her legs, naked. He covered his eyes but remembered they were going out so gave her a towel and looked back at her again.
"Have I been acting weird?" he asked her.
"No, don't be silly." Pansy sat down.
"I think I have. Maybe it's this recent scare." He looked at her, "Sorry." He said.
Pansy was a little shocked.
"For what?"
"You know, not wrapping." He smiled.
"Don't be silly."
"You won't have to out up with it any more." Draco said, he sat down and held her hand. Pansy looked into his blue eyes and smiled. She felt so light when she sat next to him, like angels were taking her away to a better place.
"Why not?" She asked him.
"Because we're over, tell that to your friends. Dare you." Draco smiled, let go of her hands and watched as tears fell down her face in silent shock.
He left the room, he knew he could have her back with a click of his fingers. He carried on down the corridor, he heard Pansy's door open.
"That's it Draco! I'll tell everyone, EVERYTHING I know about you. You won't be as popular by the time I'm finished with you!" Pansy knew an awful lot about Draco.
"Tell them. I got so much shit on you it's unbelievable." Draco had nothing, absolutely diddly squat, he hoped that he had scared her enough for her silence.
He couldn't wait for next week, the gossip would be immense. Nothing better than using this to his advantage, for once, he had appreciated Harry and Ron, he shook his head at the thought.
Authors Note;
There's the end of Chapter 2. Admittedly not as wonderful as the first chapter, but hopefully you can see where the story may be going. Just had a mini brain wave about what is going to happen much later. Should definitely be fun.
Anyway, keep reading and reviewing. Good or bad – I don't mine honest. Constructive criticism is much appreciated so long as it's done in the nicest way possible. I try to not take personal offence but it's hard when a lot of you anonymous people insult me every other word. In reference to emails.
Anyway, thanks for reading.
Myspace anyone?
