"Does Draco know that you know all of this?"
"No."
"Huh. This year should be interesting."
"To say the least."
Chapter FourDanica and Mya
Hermione was nervous. This was to be the first time she and Draco would see each other since she found her new family…and new look. She couldn't decide if she should let Blaise tell Draco about her or not.
She was still debating this when Ginny came into her room. Ginny had grown over the past couple years. She was no longer the flat little girl but a slim, slightly curvy, young woman. Her sparkling green eyes were accentuated by the mascara and eyeliner she wore and her no longer flaming, but still red, hair. Her hair, which had grown to be several shades darker had grown to a little above her elbows and was pulled together in one long shining braid. Other than her eyeliner, the only make up she wore was lip gloss. That was all she or Hermione ever wore, as they were both minimalists when it came to makeup. On her body she wore a dark green tank, matching and drawing attention to her stunning eyes, that had a low neckline and ended about three inches above the top of her super low rise jeans and showed off the tattoo on her lower back that she had gotten a few weeks earlier with Mione.
"I don't know Mione. How much is it going to hurt?"
"How should I know, I haven't gotten mine yet. But probably, it's to be expected, it's a tattoo. It wont hurt as much as it should and not for as long because they'll spell the area before and after so it will be numb when they do most of it and so it'll heal faster. Besides, it's not like you've never gotten a tattoo before, and we're celebrating. Not many people could jump a year ahead and you told me that you had always wanted a tattoo on your back."
At the remark about "not like you've never gotten a tattoo before" she smiled and looked at the inside of her left wrist. There was a small Chinese character there that meant "Chaos" (A/N: This is why the story is called Chaos! Well part of the reason but it stems from the tattoos.) Mione had one too in exactly the same place. Blaise and Draco also had them but on the inside of their right wrists. The two duos had gotten them separately, but for the same reasons. They had gotten them over the holidays two summers before when everyone had finally acknowledged Voldemort's return. They knew that their lives were going to be chaotic during the war and even after. But they also stood as a promise that they had made to themselves and each other: Never let life get boring, make sure there is Chaos.
"Yeah, but it's not like I didn't have help. I would never have managed it if you hadn't caught me looking at your notes and insisted on helping me. And then telling Dumbledore and…"
"That's why I'm getting one too, remember? Now hurry up and pick your design. I've already picked mine."
Since then, Ginny loved telling everyone the story of her new tattoo.
"It's because I got moved up a year so I'm in 7th year with Hermione here, who is the one who helped me manage it."
Ginny saw Hermione over in her closet. She wasn't dressed yet.
"Hey Mione. Why aren't you dressed?"
"I can't decide what to wear. What do I wear?"
Ginny walked over to her panicky friend.
"Mione, relax. Just breathe. Everything's going to be fine. Here, put these on."
"These" were a pair of low slung leather pants that were open, entirely, on the fronts of the legs and held together by the leather cord that crisscrossed dozens of times over the exposed flesh, a black skin tight tube top and a pair of black boots. And now she was ready.
Ginny sent silent thanks to the heavens that her friend hadn't had her meltdown until after she had done her own hair and makeup. Ginny also noted that her friend had calmed done since her arrival. Now she turned to Ginny with a playful smile,
"So, are we ready to go, Mya?"
"I don't know, Danica, are we?"
They both grinned. When they went out into the muggle world they went by their middle names. No real reason why, they just did.
They walked laughing out of the room and down to the hall, where Blaise and Draco were waiting. Hermione outlined her final plan to Ginny as they went.
"Finally, I though you two had gotten lost or something. Draco this is my cousin-"
"Danica, " Mione cut Blaise off before he could even begin to form a name.
This was part of the plan she had just told Ginny. Mione, I mean Danica, had almost lost her never to follow the plan when she saw him. He was just too damn sexy for her own good.
He was wearing a dark blue button down shirt with the sleeves rolled up revealing muscular forearms. The top two buttons of the shirt were undone, and Hermione had a feeling that the shirt would not have been able to stretch across his broad chest if they had been done up. He also wore a faded pair of black jeans. But it was his face, well more his eyes, that made her falter. He had thankfully stopped gelling his hair and it was hanging down in his eyes and framing his face loosely. But his eyes, Merlin's beard, his eyes. His once cold steely eyes were now such a mixture of warms silver and soft blue that one could not determine a particular color.
As soon as the girls stepped into the room those intense eyes snapped onto Danica. As he had come with Blaise and Ginny there was no need to even acknowledge her. As he studied her, he thought about whom the gorgeous body might belong to.
She certainly looks like a Zabini, but Blaise said that there had been a glamour on her so I wouldn't have recognized her immediately, now would I? Name's Danica? Where have I heard that before? I don't buy that that's her real name. She's hiding something. She cut him off too fast. She seems to be very good friends with Ginny. They seem a little too close for them having just started to get to know each other. But Blaise did say that I know her from school. Oh…hey…what's that?
Danica had just reached for the jacket that was hanging on the knob of the hall closet. Draco noticed a small tattoo on the inside of her left wrist. Chaos. The only reason he recognized it was because he had one of his own.
The only other female that I know of with that tattoo is Mione. But why wouldn't she want to tell me. I'll find out if it really is her…
"Mione, you want to hurry it up?"
"Just a…" the rest of her sentence trailed off as she finished pulling on her jacket and slowly turn to face Draco with wide eyes.
"How'd you know…Blaise!" She whirled to gaze fiercely at him.
"I didn't tell him," he said, throwing up his hands, "he probably figured it out, he's not Head Boy for nothing."
"He didn't tell me. I did figure it out. It wasn't that hard. First, you're her best friend and she was way too excited and chummy for you guys to have just started getting to know each other a week ago. Second, Blaise told me that I would know you from school. Third, the way you said your name was Danica just didn't fit. You cut Blaise off and said it way too fast. And, lastly, one word…Chaos. You grabbed your jacket with your left hand and I saw the tattoo. And there's only the four of us that have that tattoo that I know of."
Stunned silence met this speech.
"Oh, and Danica is your middle name. I remember you told me last year that you and Ginny go out to muggle clubs under you middle names. Now can we get going are we just going to stand around all night?"
As soon as Draco had mentioned it being her middle name, Mione had stopped being shocked and grinned. I can't believe he remembered that.
Ginny and Blaise's mouths stretched into smiles after this and the quartet walked to the fireplace, flooed to the Leaky Cauldron and walked out into muggle London chatting animatedly. Ginny and Blaise talking about this years Quidditch teams and Draco asking Hermione all kinds of questions about her new family.
A/N: yay! Here is the latest chapter. I know I lied, I said we'd get to the club in this chapter, I did didn't I? but that will be next chapter, I promise. How'd you like it? –eager smile- oh and any ideas for stuff at Hogwarts would be great, and constructive criticism is always welcome! So hope you enjoyed and please review!
Until next time!
