A/N. Again sorry about the mix-up. I am now going to make this a really good chapter to make up for it. There is going to be another question at the end of this chapter. Oh and I will give credit to the singers and their songs in the next chapter's author note.
Disclaimer- I do not own anything, not even the songs.
Chapter 7- Talent Show
The next weeks went by slowly. Kallie and Draco were fretting badly about the talent show. Draco had a completely different reason and Kallie's was just nerves. Ginny and Blaise thought it was hilarious. Ginny and Blaise had already picked out their songs. Draco was still trying to find one, while Kallie had to pick from three. The only thing interesting that happened in the weeks between the twin's birthday and the talent show was a little chat Harry had with Draco.
Flashback (Draco's PoV)
Harry walked in to our common room, and looked around before turning to me and saying "Draco, we need to talk."
I got up and walked over to him, I had been expecting this. Ever since I became friends with Kallie I have been waiting for the time when her body guards come and talk to me.
"It's about Blaise and Ginny." Harry said simply. "Are they here?"
"No, they left here with Kallie, something about shopping. I was going to work on my act for the talent show today. What about them?" I asked looking confused.
"Ginny broke up with me because she likes Blaise. I know Blaise likes her too, I can tell." Harry looked at Draco and at the nod of his head continued, "I think we should get them together. I had an idea."
Harry and I talked about our plan for a couple of hours before Kallie, Blaise, and Ginny came home.
End of Flashback
Still Draco's PoV
The plan was supposed to take place the night after the talent show. Harry and I are going to invite Blaise, Ginny, Luna, and Kallie to play a little game of truth or dare. He he, aren't we evil?
Author's PoV
Finally, the morning of the talent show arrived. Kallie and Ginny did not go down to breakfast. They were too busy getting ready for the dress rehearsal. Not only did they have to get dressed, do their make-up, and do their hair, they had to put concealment charms on it all, so no one would see it before that night. Kallie had finally decided on a song, and Ginny was practicing hers.
The girls were finally ready at 12:45 and made their way to the great hall. Everyone that was not in the Talent Show have to go to Hogsmede that day, so no one would see the show early.
At the dress rehearsal, everyone practiced their parts on a stage Dumbledore had conjured and after about an hour he told everyone to go back to their common rooms and wait for dinner, the talent show will be after the feast.
Dinner
Kallie and Ginny sat down at Gryffindor table and just stared at the food.
"Come on Kallie, what do you always tell me before Quidditch games?" Harry said, poking fun at his friend.
"Bite me!" Kallie shot back angrily. "Oh, I am sorry Harry. It's just nerves. I didn't mean to snap at you." She said soon after realizing her mistake.
"It's ok, Kal. I was just kidding."
Kallie and Ginny sat at the table in silence until Dumbledore stood up and told all the performers to go in the back room and get ready, while everyone else was supposed to go out in the hall, for him to change the Great Hall in to the stage.
After about 20 minuets, Kallie and Ginny were ready just as Dumbledore was calling the first act to the stage, Hannah Abbot.
"Attention Students! Our first act is Miss. Hannah Abbot. She will be playing the flute."
A very nervous Hufflepuff walked on stage carrying a bright silver flute, music stand, and piece of sheet music. She was wearing a simple black skirt with a light pink polo shirt tucked in, she had a black belt on and black shoes with tights. Hannah set up the stand, placed her music on it, put the flute to her mouth and began to play a nice arrangement of " My Favorite Things" from the sound of music.
At the end of the song everyone clapped politely and Dumbledore stood to announce the next act.
"Thank you Miss. Abbot, that was lovely. Out next performer is Miss. Luna Lovegood. Please welcome her to the stage." Everyone clapped very softly, all wondering the same thing 'what is SHE going to do?' (A/n. I was wondering too, until about 5 seconds before I typed this paragraph. Lol)
Luna walked on stage wearing bright green pants with a white blouse. She had on her radish earrings and bottle cap necklace. She went up to the microphone and began.
"Tonight I will be doing impressions for you. Let's see if you can guess who all I am doing. When I stop just shout it out. Here I go…"
In a snake like voice Luna said "Time to meet your mudblood mother, Potter."
"Voldemort, I heard him say that, what, 7 times." Harry called from a chair to the left of the stage.
"Yes, I knew you would get that one. Okay, here's another one."
"Herm-my-oh-ninny, I vove you. Pvease come visit ve in Voulgaria and vatch me play Quidditch." Luna said in a thick Bulgarian accent.
This time about four boys called out, "Viktor Krum" before Luna moved on to her last impression.
"This will be my last impression for tonight. I hope you all enjoyed them."
Luna took a deep breathe before "hem hem, Professor, if I may interrupt, for a tweensy bit."
"UMBRIDGE!" Everyone in third year and above shouted and started laughing because Luna did such a good impression of their beloved High inquisitor.
"Thanks." Luna said and walked off stage, people still laughing. Dumbledore was still chuckling when he came back on stage.
"Thank you Miss. Lovegood for those great impressions. Our next act will be Miss. Lavender Brown singing a lovely song. Miss. Brown," Dumbledore said before backing off stage.
Lavender walked on stage wearing tight skinny jeans from a muggle shop, Hollister, and a skin tight polo in red from another muggle shop, Abercrombie & Fitch. She wore flip-flops from Rainbow that were a light tan. Her toenails were painted the same color as her shirt. Her hair was straight and she had on a little gold sparkly eye shadow.
She got up to the mike and signaled for the music to start.
"Whenever I see
someone
Less fortunate than I
(And let's face it - who
isn't
Less fortunate than I?)
My tender heart
Tends to start
to bleed
And when someone needs a makeover
I simply have to
take over
I know I know exactly what they need
And even in your
case
Tho' it's the toughest case I've yet to face
Don't worry -
I'm determined to succeed
Follow my lead
And yes, indeed
You
will be:
Popular!
You're
gonna be popular!
I'll teach you the proper ploys
When you talk
to boys
Little ways to flirt and flounce
I'll show you what
shoes to wear
How to fix your hair
Everything that really
counts
To be popular
I'll
help you be popular!
You'll hang with the right cohorts
You'll
be good at sports
Know the slang you've got to know
So let's
start
'Cause you've got an awfully long way to go:
Don't be offended
by my frank analysis
Think of it as personality dialysis
Now
that I've chosen to be come a pal, a
Sister and adviser
There's
nobody wiser
Not when it comes to popular -
I know about
popular
And with an assist from me
To be who you'll bee
Instead
of dreary who-you-were: are:
There's nothing that can stop
you
From becoming popu-
Ler: lar:
La la la la
We're
gonna make
You popular
When I see
depressing creatures
With unprepossessing features
I remind
them on their own behalf
To think of
Celebrated heads of state
or
Specially great communicators
Did they have brains or
knowledge?
Don't make me laugh!
They were popular!
Please -
It's all about popular!
It's not about aptitude
It's
the way you're viewed
So it's very shrewd to be
Very very
popular
Like me!
And though you
protest
Your disinterest
I know clandestinely
You're gonna
grin and bear it
Your new found popularity
La la la la
You'll
be popular -
Just not as quite as popular
As me!"
When Lavender was finished a lot of the guys wolf-whistled, including Ron, who immediately turned bright red. She walked off stage blushing, along with Ron.
Once again, Dumbledore came on stage.
"Another wonderful performance Miss. Brown. Our next act will be Miss. Parvarti Patil, please give her a welcome." Dumbledore left the stage as Parvarti took the stage in a light pink leotard, tights, and small tutu. She also wore ballet slippers.
When she got to center stage, she also signaled for the music to start. After a slow 8 counts she started to dance Swan Lake. (A/N. I used to take dance for about 4 years, but I do not remember any of it. So just, picture it in your head, please, unless you have seen the play before. Lol)
Parvarti glided off stage as once again, Dumbledore walked on stage. Our next act will be Miss. Ginny Weasley."
Ginny walked on stage wearing a short jean skirt, a white tank top, with a brown one underneath. She also had on rainbows; except hers were a dark brown and her toes had a American manicure on them. Her hair, also, was straight flowing down her back. She wore only make-up on her eyes, to show off her freckles. The simple outfit made Ginny look stunning, it really showed off her figure.
Ginny walked to center stage and grabbed the mike.
"This song goes out to that someone; I hope they know who they are." She began to sing.
"I'm sittin' in the
window of a street cafe
Watchin' you walking by each day,
It
seems that you always wanna look my way
Hey, you can't deny, boy,
You're such a shy boy.
So good looking you
seem to be
But you're too tongue-tied to say hi to me,
You
could make it happen so easily
Woah, I'll tell you why boy,
'Cos
I'm looking for a shy boy
Most guys advertise
By making eyes and telling lies
If you only knew,
You
could make your dreams come true
All you gotta do is ask me to
If this was a quiz
on a TV show
And the prize was a guy who would love me so
Whatever they ask, the answer I know
Hey, my reply boy
Is
gimme a shy boy.
Most guys advertise
By making eyes and telling lies
If you only knew
You
could make your dreams come true
All you gotta do is ask me to
Some guys act a bit
too sure
And maybe you're thinkin' that less is more
But
Honey, you still gotta knock on my door
Hey, just try boy,
And
you could be my boy
I'll tell you why
boy
I'm looking for a shy boy,
Just try boy, you're such a
shy boy"
Ginny finished her song and gave a wink in Blaise's direction, which had come out from back stage to watch her performance. Blaise just blushed and watched Ginny walk off stage clapping and cheering with everyone else.
A/N I am going to pick back up with the talent show in chapter 8. I will try to post that later. Please review. I still need to think of a song for Draco and something for Kallie and Blaise to do. I think Kallie is going to sing and play the guitar while Draco sings and plays the drums.
If anyone has suggestions please let me know. Thanks, oh and here is the new question: Name the two songs and who sings them. Also, do not forget the other question: What floor are the head dorms are located?
Thanks!
