* Full randomness! Yay! So totally me! My well known quote is "Hi, I'm Indy Nile, Call me Dee." I want to be... a cat!! *meow* No... actually, i wanna be evil... lets kill cummins! I wanna be in Slytherin! Actually, I want a lot of things ... Can i be in it more? I like to be... included ... ok... i'll stop buggin u... once is enough... cool... - Sent in from the hope conspiracy (aka Jay)

Answer: Well ... you DO want a lot, don't you? Hehe. OK, I'll put you in Slytherin, but you can't kill Cummins. She needs to annoy further (just like the dear old Professor Umbridge. 'Shudders at name') And I'll try to include the quote, but I probably won't because I will most likely forget. I'm a very busy person, you know.

* I like the Fanfiction. It's great! But are you replacing me with Joeline, because I don't want that! And who IS Joeline? - Sent in from Ginny.

Answer: No, Karla, I am NOT replacing you with Joeline. She was just a guest appearance, and she will be making another one as well in this chapter. And you don't know who Joeline is? Well, she was the one who stayed with us in Music (Period 1) to watch the beginning of Just Married with us. Even though she had her Science class and everything ....

* There is 12 Romances on this page. Is yours just one in many? P.S. How about annoying bratty characters that should just SHUT UP? - Sent in from the counter. Answer: Here's a few reasons on why you should consider before treading onto 'Dating Dungbombs' territory ever again:

a) Your first sentence does not make any sense. At least try typing random ways. Then maybe people would understand.

b) How about the annoying and bratty YOU just SHUT UP? It would do us a lot of good. :)

* Louise== I WANT TO BE DRACO'S PARTNER! make me draco's partner! Make me his partner NOW!

LINDA== Hello. Im going to now destroy u Ashlee. MALFOY! MALFOY! MALFOY! HOW DARE U. P.S. If i knew wat 'fiesty' meant, I would have never suggested it 2 u. *Ew*

Rachel== I WANT TO BE IN THE NEXT CHAPTER ALOT MORE! Please put DADA in a bit more. I want mint humbugs to be in more. And butterbeer. More butterbeer. And more of hgsmede. I like hogsmeade.

Louise== After my pov can it plz be Harry's and Draco's then Hermione's and the Ron. Bye everybody. Bye Dr Nick. - Sent in from Rachel Gilding, Louise Houston and Linda De Gail.

Answer: Louise - Sorry, Linda will stay as Draco's partner, purely so that she can annoy him. :) Also, I'm not putting those characters in PoVs, I'd rather stick with the usual PoVs.

Linda - Yes, you should know what fiesty means. From now on, I'm not listening to any of your suggestions ever again.

Rachel - No. Because you've been so insistant, I've decided to reduce your number of lines. Too bad - you should always be humble when you ask. :) Sorry, no Hogsmeade, butterbeer or mint humbugs in this chapter.

* This is a great story, please do continue! I really did love your story! :) - Sent in from Lizzybelle.

Answer: Thank you so much! I love your stories too! (Be sure to check out Lizzybelle's stories.) P.S. I'll be sure to tell you in your review page.

* Ashlee, you said that next chapter you would give out more clues about who you are. we already know it's you. or is it? maybe it really is you linda! - Sent in from Courtney Hall.

Answer: Oops! Forgot! This chapter, clues I PROMISE!

* Wow, cool, i especially like that Joeline chick. what's up with her? - Sent in from loserdude.

Answer: Thanks for the comment - Joeline is one really scary Asian girl from school. She has black hair with a red fringe (I think ...) and blonde ends. She's in the year above us and is quite frankly scary. :)

* Blue, I noticed that you made a few mistakes in your last chapter. When Edusa (cummins) was reading from the list, she said Ron and Pavarti, yet she said before that everyone was from different houses. - Sent in from Rachel Gilding.

Answer: Whoops! Thanks for pointing it out for me, I'll be sure to fix it.

Summary of the chapter - Quidditch, toilet, broom, sleep, Care of Magical Creatures, Transfiguration, paper, ar-re-gah, attitude and mistake.

A/N: WOO!! The champagne is flowing and the cake is cut - welcome to Chapter 10 of Dating Dungbombs! Since this chapter enters "DD" into the 'Dark Ages', expect ... shocks! Laughter! And ... fights. I've tried pretty hard with the plotline, so I hope you enjoy it! After all, you only turn double digits once, so you might as well enjoy it. =P

Thank you for all your reviews! I greatly appreciate them, and take them into consideration. Well, except for the ones that say that I should mention Rachel more in the story. I wonder who submitted those ...

Also: I'm sorry, but the Transfiguration section is a lot shorter than the others - I honestly could not be bothered, as Quidditch Trials was after it and I couldn't control my excitement. :)

So here are the clues: marked, area, neon, franc, face. Have fun solving! :)

Anyway, I hope you like this chapter!

Until the darker ages ...

Chapter 10 - Louise's PoV: Ar-re-gah's and Tralala's

The sunlight streamed through the window and poured onto the stone floor. I woke up and went to the window to look outside. Everything was sunny and happy. I looked down and saw the giant squid with it's tentacles above the water. Except, the tentacles were bandaged. Hmm, I wonder what happened ...

Oh well. I went away from the window and got into the bathroom and started brushing my teeth. Ahhh ... Draco Malfoy. Brush, brush. Draco! Brush, brush. Draco! He's so hot! Brush, brush. Ahhhh .... Brush, brush.

I was about to spit out the toothpaste when -

"Ar-re-gah, ar-re-gah, ar-re-gah ..." a chorus started singing at the doorway if the bathroom. Ar-re-gah? That's mine! Ar-re-gah!

I turned around, the toothpaste still in my mouth. Ashlee, Courtney and Rachel were at the doorway, bopping up and down together.

"STOP IT!" I hissed in a hostile tone.

They decided to ignore me. Ashlee then jumped in front of the other two and started dancing around the bathroom, singing.

"Ar-re-gah, ar-re-gah, ar-re-gah ..." she sang, hopping around the bathroom.

"Ar-re-gah?!" I yelled angrily. "I'LL SHOW YOU AR-RE-GAH!"

Ashlee danced back towards the entrance of the bathroom. She stuck out her tongue.

"Ar-re-gah." she taunted.

It was at that time, I totally lost it. I charged forward, flew into the air and tackled Ashlee to the floor.

"DO NOT SAY AR-RE-GAH EVER AGAIN!" I screamed, wringing her neck. Ashlee was gasping and coughing. I let go of her to hear what she had to say.

"Ar-re-gah." she choked and started making an escape.

"Ar-re-gah!" I cried and ran after her. I grabbed her by the hair and dragged her back into the bathroom. Rachel and Courtney in the meantime were standing at the door, horrified.

"Help me!" Ashlee shouted.

"Oh my goodness!" Rachel screamed, pointing at Louise's frothing mouth. "She has raibies!"

"No I don't!" Louise denied, screaming.

Rachel and Courtney immediately bolted off - but not to help Ashlee. They obviously didn't want to end up with a new hairstyle, like Ashlee had. She ran to the open doorway, trying to escape again.

"NO!" I slammed the door and locked it with my wand. "Say you never say 'ar-re-gah' ever again!"

"What are you going to do if I don't?" Ashlee asked, backing towards the door again and fumbling for her wand.

"I will grab you, chop you up into little pieces and then flush you down the toilet." I replied. It was the most logical thing to do. Obviously.

"You don't mean that, do you?" Ashlee seemed a little scared.

"Well no," I admitted, "not the 'chopping you into little pieces' bit, anyway."

There was silence. Until ...

"LARA!" Ashlee started pounding on the door.

"Time to meet the toilet!" I screeched.

"LARA! LARA!" Ashlee started banging more frantically.

"WHAT?!" a voice screamed from the other side of the door. I was mid-way through grabbing Ashlee when Lara decided to come down.

"Help --" I muffled Ashlee's voice by covering her mouth with my hand.

"What's going on in there?" Lara asked suspiciously.

"Erm," I replied, firmly holding Ashlee. "Ashlee's having some bathroom trouble.."

I dragged her to the toilet and grabbed her head. I pushed it down into the toilet.

"Then why are you in there?" Lara asked even more suspiciously.

"Um." I groped for an answer. "She needs some help ..."

After Ashlee's head was positioned inside the toilet, I pushed the 'full flush' button on the toilet. Ashlee's cries for help was muffled by the water.

"What are you doing?" another voice asked. It was Hermione Granger.

"Nothing, Hermione." I said. I looked down - damn! Ashlee's head was still there. I pushed the flush button again.

"It doesn't sound like 'nothing'." Hermione said matter-of-factly. DAMN! Ashlee's head was still there! How long does it take to flush someone down the toilet?!

"Well, it is nothing!" I said, stuffing Ashlee's head further in. Ashlee protested loudly. I flushed the toilet again.

"Why are you flushing the toilet so much?" Hermione asked.

"Um." I looked around the room, as if I were looking for an answer. "It,erm. It must have, um, been the, er, Mexican food we had last night."

"Mexican food?" Hermione and Lara asked incredulously.

"Yeah, yeah." I looked around, worried. "You know what nachos and tacos do to me ..."

"Um, OK ..." I heard two pairs of feet walk off. I sighed.

"Have you learnt your lesson yet?" I asked savagely. Ashlee's response was muffled by the water. "Well?!" I asked impatiently.

"Ar-re-gah." she managed, before I stuffed her head down the toilet again.

I picked up my wand, unlocked the door and walked out, after flushing the toilet again. Then I locked the door. NOBODY says 'ar-re-gah' and gets away with it.

~~Care of Magical Creatures~~

I skipped breakfast and dashed off to Care of Magical Creatures. Everybody was asking where Ashlee was.

"I wonder what happened to Ashlee." Courtney observed, looking around.

"Why, I don't know!" I said, trying out my acting skills.

"Yeah, she seemed to have disappeared somewhere ..." Rachel looked around.

"Uhuh." I agreed, nodding my head. She 'could' have disappeared. Or she 'could' have had some 'toilet trouble' ...

"Quiet, everybody!" Professor Edusa snapped. I shuddered - she's really freaky. "Now, get into your partners again and this lesson I expect that you all feed your Ploony properly. NOT shoving food down it's throat." she looked around at everybody, and waited for us to nod. We did.

We ran off to our partners. I looked around and saw Draco ('sigh') with Linda. Ar-re-gah! How could SHE get Draco?! Isn't it obvious that I am the best match for him?

"Is anything wrong, Louise?" Terry Boot asked me. Terry is my Care of Magical Creatures partner.

"Yes." I sighed. I looked over at Draco. His wonderful blonde hair and cool grey eyes. He looked so good. Ahhh...

"What is it that's wrong?" Terry asked me, interrupting my daydream.

"Draco." I replied, peering sadly at Draco who was currently to what seemed like an annoyed Linda.

"Yeah," Terry agreed, "I think he's awful as well."

I stiffened. What did Terry just say?

"WHAT?!" I asked Terry.

"Malfoy's horrible." Terry repeated.

"No he isn't!" I objected, practically pushing Terry into a tree. "He's a sensitive, wonderful, fantastic, talented, hot and absolutely splendid person!" I sighed and leaned against the tree myself, slowly sliding down.

"AAARRRGGGHHH!!" a scream erupted from where Draco was. Oh no! What had happened to my wonderful Draco?

"DRACO!" I got up and looked over.

What I saw was a horror to my eyes - Linda had conjured up a sack of what appeared to be Hippogriff manure. She also seemed to have charmed it up into the air above Draco's head. Draco was frozen on the floor - obviously by a binding spell. OH NO! WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN?! I ran over to get a closer look and hopefully tackle Linda.

"Personally, I wouldn't move." Linda said as the sack of manure shook dangerously above his head.

"Yeah, well I don't really have that option," Draco sneered, "do I?"

"Just as well." Linda moved her wand downwards.

"AAARRRGGGHHH!" he screamed, trying to escape.

Linda grinned evily and let the sack drop. NO!

"NOOOOOOOOOO!!" I screamed. I ran over, grabbed Draco and pushed him out of the way.

"YOU DO NOT HURT DRACO!!" I scolded a shocked Linda.

She rolled her eyes. "You try having some slimey git say that you have attitude and see how you react." Linda pocketed her wand.

"HE'S NOT A SLIMEY GIT!" I protested hotly, standing up.

"You're right." Linda said suddenly.

"Really?" I smiled. "Well, tra la la la la."

"Yeah ..." Linda elaborated on her sentence. "He was a slimey git. But not anymore."

"See?" I grinned, practically dancing around. "Ahhhh ... tra la la."

Linda flicked her wand and the sack of manure flew over and landed splat onto Draco's head. NOOO!!!

"He WAS a slimey git." Linda smiled happily. "But now he's a smelly, slimey git."

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I screamed and did the counter spell for the binding spell. "Are you OK, darling Draco?" I asked, concered.

"Get away from me!" he spat, then moved away, trying to clean his hair.

I can't believe it. Could you believe what he just did? He ... ACTUALLY TALKED TO ME! OH MY GOODNESS! I THINK MY KNEES ARE WOBBLING!!

"Anything for you, Draco." I sighed.

"DON'T call me Draco." Draco - er - Malfoy said.

"OK." I agreed, smiling broadly. Malfoy looked at me weirdly, then turned away to try and find Lara.

Ahhh .. tra la la. He talked to me! HE talked to ME!! Ahhh ... tra la la.

~~Transfiguration~~

After the bell went and Terry had fed the Ploony, I made my way to the Transfiguration classroom. Professor McGonagall had recovered from her fairly recent stay at the hospital wing, and was teaching again. However, this time around, she was much more wary of Courtney.

"Today, we are revising on what we have learnt." Professor McGonagall eyed Courtney with what seemed like fear. "You will have free time to do this." she walked off and started marking some test papers, just like Professor Edusa did yesterday.

"Fereverto." I heard Courtney say. The toucan that she was experimenting spells on turned into a golden goblet, but with a beak.

"Ferratus!" I heard somebody else say. It was Karla, meaning it as a joke. The entire classroom turned silent and looked at Professor McGonagall who was still in human form. Courtney turned a weird shade of red. "What?" Karla asked innocently, as a quill turned into a ferret.

Draco turned red. Yes, yes, I know I shouldn't call him 'Draco', but his name is just so wonderful! Ahhh ...

~~Quidditch Trials~~

When Transfiguration was finished, we all made our way to the Quidditch Pitch. Madame Hooch, the flying instructor told us that if we tried out for the new positions on the Quidditch teams, we didn't have to do our practical exam for flying. Naturally, the entire class signed up for the Quidditch trials - except for Hermione.

After a few minutes of sitting on the lawns, Harry and ('sigh') Draco flew out of the changing rooms on their brooms, wearing their Quidditch robes. I squealed - green is sooo Draco's colour! Ahhh, tra la la.

I looked around, trying to see everybody's reaction. Ron had turned extremely red. Apparently he decided that he didn't want to be a part of the Quidditch teams anymore. Neither did everybody else. So the only person left was Harry.

"OK," Harry started talking, "today we're here to see the try outs for the house Qui -"

"Who said that you could start talking first?" Draco asked him smoothly. He looks so cool when he does that! 'Melts'. Harry rolled his eyes. How dare he interrupt Draco with his stupid eyes!

"Fine," Harry said frustratedly, "you can go first then."

"Mentally disadvantaged first." Draco smirked, indicating Harry to start.

"Good," Harry sneered, "go on then Malfoy, they're waiting."

"Shut up, Potter!" Draco started arguing.

"I'm not the one who's mentally disadvantaged!"

"Yes you are!" Draco said.

"I am not - you are!"

"No - you are!"

"NO - YOU ARE!"

"AM NOT!"

"AM SO!"

"WHAT are you two doing over there?" Madame Hooch asked from her assessment area.

The two guys were practically strangling each other. Lara was holding Draco back. Wait. LARA? WHY WASN'T IT ME THAT WAS OVER THERE, HOLDING HIM BACK FROM PUNCHING HARRY?!

"Nothing." Harry said through clenced teeth, relaxing a little bit. So did Draco. "We're fine, Madame Hooch." Madame Hooch raised her eyebrows a little bit.

"OK." she said, and turned back to see a struggling Hermione on her broom.

"Now," Draco said, looking at us with those wonderful grey eyes. "Who's trying out for the Slytherin side?"

I shot up my hand immediately, not even thinking about the fact that Draco with in a totally different house.

"What are you doing, Louise?" Karla asked me innocently.

"Trying out for Draco's team." I sighed at the sight of him in that Quidditch robe.

"No, you dingohopper!" Karla rolled her eyes. "You're in GRYFFINDOR. Draco - or whatever his name is - is in SLYTHERIN."

"Oh, yeah." my hand drooped downwards sadly.

"Useless!" Karla muttered, then turned to talk to Rachel.



After Harry had put our names down for positions, he all grabbed us some brooms.

"OK, let's see what you can do." Harry said, sitting lazily upon his own broom. "I want to see you fly as fast as you can to the Gryffindor goal posts, which is that way." Harry pointed to the right.

"Wait!" Elizabeth said. "If I fly, won't my hair be out of place?!"

"Yes." Harry said bluntly. "After all, that IS what wind does to your hair."

"But - but -"

"Look, you're taking up time." Harry said. "Do you want to try out or not?"

"NO WAY!" Elizabeth got off her broom. "MY HAIR IS WAY MORE IMPORTANT THAN FLYING AROUND ON A PIECE OF WOOD!"

"Fine, I'll just mark you off." Harry rolled his eyes, got out his quill, and crossed off Elizabeth's name. "Ready. Set. GO!"

We all sped off on our brooms toward the Gryffindor goal posts. We were only halfway there when Harry had already reached it. Wow - he can FLY!

I looked down onto the lawn as I neared the posts. Elizabeth was brushing her hair as usual, and Michael Corner seemed to be trying to talk her.

"LOUISE!" somebody screamed. "LOOK OUT!" my gaze had wondered on the lawn for the too long. I jerked my head back up and saw the Gryffindor goal posts - immensley close and immensley approaching.

"AR-RE-GAH!" I screamed, and halted to a stop.

My broom slowed down considerably, but not to a complete stop. I flew straight through the goal post, my broom now stopping slowly.

"Are you OK?" Harry asked me, flying next to me, hovering lightly in the air.

"I feel ..." I looked around. Then I looked at the ground. What was that? "Like I'm hallucinating."

"What?" Rachel asked me, landing next to me. "What do you mean?"

"I mean," I pointed to the lawn, "that there's a weird figure on the ground in a black robe."

Harry suddenly looked very worried. He looked downwards. "You're not hallucinating."

"Really?" Linda asked dumbly. "Well, that's good to know!"

"Wait." Courtney asked. "What does that mean?"

"It means ..." Harry pulled out his wand from inside his Quidditch robes. "DEMENTOR!"

"AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!" we all screamed and sped towards the ground.

"EXPECTO PATRONUS!" Harry shouted, a silver stag errupting from the point of his wand. It galloped stealthily towards the ground. Everybody looked at it in awe. We all touched down onto the ground. The dementor stood firmly on the ground, looking at the silver stag. The stag tried to headbutt the dementor out the way, but nothing happened. Meanwhile, the Slytherins had also joined us on the lawn.

"What's happening?!" Harry asked frantically. "The patronus isn't working!"

"It must be some sort of super dementor!" Draco yelled, scared.

"AARRGGHH!" we all screamed and started running around. The dementor chased after us, waving it's toilet paper covered arms at us. Wait. TOILET PAPER COVERED ARMS!? Oh no ...

"STOP!" Hermione yelled from where she was. "THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A SUPER DEMENTOR!"

"YEAH?" Ron screamed, deranged. "LOOKS LIKE WE JUST FOUND ONE!"

"Hermione's right!" I yelled suddenly. Everybody stopped. "That's not a dementor."

"What is it then?" Blaise Zabini asked me, suddenly afraid of the answer that I would provide.

"It's ..." I looked at them all. The creature walked further towards us. "Ashlee."

Silence.

"WHAT?!" the entire crowd asked.

"AAARRRGGGHHH!!" Courtney screamed suddenly, terrified. "ASHLEE!! ARRGGHHH!!" I ignored her.

I walked over to the toilet paper covered arms of Ashlee. I pulled the paper off. It was Ashlee alright. Except this time, Ashlee had toilet paper stuck everywhere on her, and was completely wet. Obviously, she had some continuing toilet trouble ...

"What happened to you, Ashlee?" Harry asked, resolving about 2 days of tension.

"Louise decided to stuff my head down the toilet." Ashlee explained calmly, pulling the remaining toilet paper off herself. Everybody looked at me. I looked at them sheepishly.

"That doesn't mean what I think that means, right?" Lara asked her.

"Actually," Ashlee looked at us scornfully, "it does."

"Hehe, yeah." I looked around with a crooked smile.

"Then why are you wearing that black robe?" Harry asked.

"It's called a towel, Harry!" Ashlee said matter-of-factly.

"Why are you wearing a towel?" a question asked out of no where.

"Why did Louise stuff your head down the toilet?"

"ARGH! IT'S ASHLEE!!"

"How did you manage to get your hair laced with toilet paper?"

And the lesson ended in complete confusion.

~~Lunch~~



We all sat down to lunch, with Ashlee completely clean.

"Sorry." I apologised to her.

"You should be." Ashlee said curtly, spooning out some potatoes for herself. "After all, you DID stuff my head down a toilet."

"I'm sorry!" I said again.

"That's better." Ashlee grinned evilly.

"HEEELLLOO!!" a familiar voice shouted. The Great Hall stopped and focused on Karla, who was sitting quietly at the Gryffindor table, eating.

"What?" she asked us all.

We looked around; the owner of the voice was Joeline.

"Hi, Joeline." Lara said.

"Hello ..." an evil smile crept over Joeline's mouth. "Mini Me."

"WHAT?!" Lara shouted. She shrugged her shoulders, and started eating again.

"I'm Indy Nile, Call me Dee." Joeline said.

"OK then Dee." Karla smiled at her.

Joeline then walked off towards the Slytherin table.

"What's up with her?" Parvati Patil asked, frowning.

"I don't know." Courtney grimaced. "She's kind of freaky."

"Yeah." we all agreed.

"Hey, did you see the sign?" Karla asked suddenly.

"What sign?" I asked.

"The sign said because of the interruption in Quidditch Trials," Ashlee face practically turned into a tomato, "they're going to hold the trials again tomorrow!"

"That's nice, Karla." I smiled.

~~Ashlee's Revenge~~

I was sitting near the window, reading my Transfiguration book, trying to catch up on all my work. The Transfiguration lessons mostly concerned me staring at my darling Draco.

Ashlee and Lara gathered behind me. For some reason, Lara had an empty pillow case and Ashlee had a sleeping bag. I turned around.

"Are you guys planning a slumber party or something?" I asked them.

"Err ..." Ashlee looked at Lara. "Erm, yeah, a slumber party!"

"Ooh!" I exclaimed in excitement. "Can I join?"

"Yes, actually," she said, smiling. "I have a big feeling that you the guest of honour."

"Really?" I asked them.

"Oh, yeah." Lara smirked.

"NOW!" Ashlee screamed all of a sudden. WHAT THE?!

Ashlee pounced and shoved me into the sleeping bag and zipped it up.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" I asked, shocked. What was happening?! "AR-RE-GAH!" I screamed.

Lara then came towards me and shoved the pillow case over my head. My vision now consisted of worn calico.

"STOP IT, YOU GUYS!" I screamed, trying to move.

"NOT PLANNING TO!" Ashlee yelled angrily. "PREPARE TO MEET THE SQUID!"

Meet the squid? Oh no ...

I felt some weight against me. What the...? It was Lara - she was trying to push me out the window!

"STOP! STOP!" I shouted hysterically.

"NO WAY!" Ashlee started shoving Lara, who shoved me.

"STOP IT!" I screamed. If they pushed me out of the window in a sleeping bag and a pillow case, I wouldn't be able to swim! "YOU'RE GOING TO KILL ME!"

"THAT'S THE MAIN IDEA!!" Ashlee shoved Lara one more time, and I didn't feel anything solid below me.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" I screamed, as I plunged down towards the ground, wearing the sleeping bag and pillow case. I couldn't even see when I was going to land!

"LARA!" I heard a voice say from inside the Gryffindor Tower. "YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO ACTUALLY PUSH HER OUT!"

"YOU SAID TO!" Lara argued.

"LLLAAARRRAAA!" Ashlee screamed like a maniac.

"LARA?" another voice joined in. It was ... DRACO!

"HHEELLPP!!" I yelled, my voice growing hoarse.

"DON'T WORRY, I'LL SAVE YOU!" Draco yelled. I heard a broom speeding off. I can't believe it! Draco was going to save me! My hero!

Suddenly, I heard the lap of the water. Oh no!! It didn't seem like he was coming anytime soon! It's been great knowing you, Louise Houston ... A voice said inside my head.

I held my breath, waiting for the coldness of the Lake to hit me. It never came. I suddenly felt somebody grab me and pull me aboard a broom. It was Draco!

"THANK YOU SO MUCH, DRACO!" I said, relieved as ever. Welcome back... the little voice inside my head said.

"Anything for you." Draco said, carefully steering the broom. (A/N: EEEEWWW!! *throws up*) I felt his hand pulling off the pillow case. "WOAH!" he screamed at the sight of my face.

"What's wrong?" I asked him.

"YOU'RE NOT LARA!" Draco yelled, the broom stopping abruptly.

"How long does it take you to notice that, Draco?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I THOUGHT YOU WERE LARA!" Draco continued.

"Well ... Surprise?" I said uncertainly.

Draco landed on the ground and pushed me off the broom after he took off the sleeping bag. "DON'T CALL ME DRACO!" he said, before getting back onto the broom.

"Aren't you going to send me back to Gryffindor tower?" I hinted.

"NO!" he said, kicking off from the ground. "I DON'T DO ANYTHING FOR GRYFFINDORS, EXCEPT LARA!"

"BUT HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET BACK?" I screamed from the ground. He turned and looked down at me with those cold, grey eyes.

"Walk." he said, then flew off.

"AR-RE-GAH!" I screamed, and turned on my heel to make my way to Gryffindor Tower.

Nearly Headless Nick floated past me, in his usual semi-transparant state. "Are you ever going to give up on that boy?" he asked me.

"He's horrible, mean and selfish." I grumbled. "But he's still hot!" I maintained, smiling at Nick. He rolled his eyes.

"Can't you tell that he's a bad person?" he asked me. I sighed in delight.

"He looks so goods when he's bad!" I squealed, and made my way back towards the tower, feeling considerably lighter.

"Password?" the Fat Lady asked me.

"Fizzy Whizzies." I said. She swung open and let me in.

"Are you OK, Louise?" Ashlee asked me, concerned.

"Louise!" Lara said, walking over to me. "Please, tell us that you're fine!"

"SHUT UP!" I suddenly yelled at her, my happy feeling over the 'bad boy' miraculously gone. "JUST GO OFF AND KISS PLANT BOY!"

"I DID NOT KISS DRACO TODAY!" Lara's eyes widened. "I mean, erm, nooo..." she said unconvincingly.

"Is there something that you're not telling us?" Ashlee asked, raising an eyebrow.

"No!" Lara said defensively. "Why would I want to kiss a boy? Ew, ewwww. They, erm, have ... Um ... Looties."

"Cooties." Ashlee corrected.

"Yeah, them." Lara's eyes darted around, looking for an escape route. "I have to go and kiss - I mean - hiss at a ... Plant! Yes, plant, yes, in the Greenhouse."

"Hiss?" Karla asked.

"But you don't do extended Herbology." Courtney joined in, ignoring Karla.

"I do now." Lara said, before running as fast as she could towards the portrait hole.

"I'm going to bed." I said, heading towards the dormitories.

~~Michael Turns Purple~~

I shut the door and got into bed. I was just about to fall asleep, when --

"Elizabeth!" a voice screamed. It was coming from outside, but I could hear it from my bed.

I got out of bed and walked out of the tower to see what was going on. The voices were louder than they were in the dormitory. I turned the corner. The voice didn't sound like a girl. In fact, it sounded like --

"What are you doing here, Michael Corner?" Linda asked. Bingo.

"I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU AND YOUR STUPID GAZING AT YOURSELF!" Michael screamed at Elizabeth. "I TRIED TAKING YOU OUT ON A DATE TO HOGSMEADE AND ALL YOU DO IS STARE AT YOURSELF IN YOUR PITCHER OF BUTTERBEER, IGNORING ME!" a small group of people had surrounded the two. Michael was pink in the face.

"It's not my fault that I'm beautiful!" Elizabeth said calmly.

"GET OVER YOURSELF!" Michael yelled.

Oh, this should be interesting. I edged in further. Michael was now red in the face and Elizabeth was checking out her reflection again.

"DON'T SAY 'GET OVER YOURSELF'!" Rachel suddenly pounced and pushed Michael to the floor. "THAT'S SOUNDS LIKE GET OVER IT!!" she immediately started choking Michael.

"That's an Avril Lavigne song!" Courtney immediately said. "I like Avril Lavigne! She sang ..."

"Acht Jimmy!" Ashlee joined in, in an Irish accent.

"Yacht Jimmy!" Karla mimicked, mispronouncing it as usual.

"YUCK JIMMY?" Linda suddenly shouted. "WHATEVER DID JIMMY DO TO YOU?!"

"AR-RE-GAH!" I shouted, amazed at the stupidity of everybody.

"GERROF!" Michael gasped after our little performance. He pushed Rachel off. "I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW ARROGANT YOU ARE!" he yelled again at Liz. This was not going well.

"I'M NOT ARROGANT!" Liz screamed at him. "I'M BETTER THAN YOU AND YOU KNOW IT!"

"REALLY, NOW?" Michael huffed, his face turning a dangerous shade of purple. "THEN SINCE YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT I AM ABOUT TO SAY!"

"That everybody should hail Queen of Hogwarts Elizabeth?" she asked suggestively.

"NO!" Michael shouted. "IT'S OVER!"

With that, Michael stalked off into another corridor, pushing everybody in his way out of his xway.

"Goodbye, Michael the Purple." Elizabeth hissed savagely and stalked off into the common room.

I followed her.

~~Ar-re-gah's and Tra la la's~~



"Are you OK?" I asked Elizabeth.

"Fine." she replied, not even sounding the least bit sad.

"That's good." I said. Silence followed. "Do you know what I say about boys?"

"What?" Elizabeth moved her head to look at me.

"Ar-re-gah." I smiled. She smiled back.

We ended up laughing until the bell rang.

A/N: Well! Wasn't that a suspenseful chapter? Is it the end for Elizabeth and Michael? Are Ashlee and Harry going to become friends again? How many times has Lara actually snogged Draco? Who makes it onto the Quidditch team? And will they ever replace all the toilet paper that Ashlee used? All this and more in Chapter 11!
