RECAP

" "That kid though. She seems odd."

"What do you mean by odd, Draco?" Blaise asked

"Well, how many seven year old kids go to Hogwarts?"

"Um, none except for this Skia."

"And how many seven year old kids skipped all the six years and jump to Year 7?"

"Also none except for this Skia."

"Also, how many young kids can see thestrals?"

"Just get to the point." Blaise sighed

"Well, that girl seems very fishy. You should be more careful around her.""


Chapter 9

Hermione signed as she sat down on the wooden stool in the Three Broomsticks with Skia, Luna, Harry, Ginny and numerous bags of sweets that Skia insisted to buy. Why does Skia like candy so much? I have no idea why. Since Hermione have met Skia in the orphanage about 5 years ago, she realized that Skia love to eat candy that break people's teeth. My arms hurt from carrying those bags, massaging her sore arms as Luna chat with Ginny about some mystical creature. Skia was listening in rapt (A/N sp?) attention to Luna's dreamy voice. "What can I help you with?" Madame Rosmerta came by, taking their order.

"Where is your puppy Skia?" Luna asked, after Madame Rosmerta took her leave. "He is on a mission." Skia proudly stated.

"What is he doing?"

"It's a secret, Luna."

"Your dog is an amazing creature."

"Thanks. He is one of a kind."

" I have never saw anything like him before." Luna continued "Those silver marking around his eyes are so cool."

"I know. It makes him look so pretty."

Hermione laughed "Skia, I don't think calling KataMavro pretty is good. Handsome is a better word to use."

"Why, Hermy?" she squeaked back, cocking her head sideways in confusion.

"Never mind." Hermione laughed and dismissed it.

After a few minutes of chatter around the table, Madame Rosmerta came by with a tray full of butterbeer and a cup hot chocolate with whip cream for little Skia. Placing the drinks on the table, Madame Rosmerta gave a little smile as she hurried off to deliver more drinks to the gentleman sitting in the corner of the café.


Draco Malfoy leaned on a wall and stared through the window of Honeydukes, observing a brown curly haired girl who was scanning the jars of candies. Now what should I do? He cuddled in his robes as the harsh autumn wind blew through the town. What have I go myself into? He groaned.

Flashback

Draco and Blaise were sitting in the dim corner of the Three Broomsticks. Draco propping his legs on the wooden table as Madame Rosmerta (A/N sp?) deliver their warm butterbeer.

" Since this is the last year on Hogwarts, how about we make a bet?" Blaise suggested, sipping his drink.

"What bet?"

"Well, we should play a game of truth and dare throughout the whole year and however chickens out first…will have a consequence."

"What…why would I want to do that?" Draco replied, warming his hands with the cup of butterbeer.

"Chickened?" Blaise smirked

"Of course not. Just making sure that you are serious about this one. What is the consequence anyway?" Draco asked

"The winner decides."

"Any rewards?"

"Isn't punishing the other a good enough reward already?" Blaise replied, tipping the rest of the content inside his mug down his mouth.

"…I guess."

"You in or out, Malfoy?"

"Game on"

"Well, truth or dare, Draco?"

"Dare. Duh.."

"I dare you to…buy Granger a dress for the ball."

"Wait what? That's stupid."

"You're backing out?"

"No." Draco sighed

End of Flashback

He noticed Weaselette looking through the racks, trying to find the perfect dress for Herm-Granger. Better get this over with. He opened the door and proudly strode in.


A tinkling sound of the bells was not heard by the trio of girls, hopping around in the changing rooms.

"This is too revealing." Hermione said, trying to pull up the low cut on the dress which pushed her breasts up, revealing a slight cleavage. She hated shopping. Wait..scratch that …She detested shopping. She hated trying out all of these clothes. It has been over one hour since she was dragged by Ginny into this shop. It was one of the newer shops that were built after the war in Hogsmeade. It was called "Rhemanda's Ravishing Dresses for all Occasions" ..or something like that. Ginny and Skia quickly found their own dresses after a quick glance. I bet I have tried nearly all of the dresses in this shop. Bloody Halloween Ball. Why do I have to buy a dress? I could have been in the library finishing the DADA essay. Hermione thought grumpily, trying on another of those silly dresses. "Bloody dresses" she mutter as she went out of the changing room to find Ginny for her opinion, almost missing the small step. "Language Granger. I didn't know that the Head Girl swears." A drawl came behind her. She froze and slowly turned around, facing her arch nemesis "Malfoy, what are you doing here?" She groaned. She desperately looked around the shop, hoping to find Ginny or Skia but they have somehow disappeared. Oh crap…why of all time does he have to make an appearance? "Didn't know you are into dresses Malfoy?" she snarled. "It's not for me," raking his eyes up and down, looking at her dress. Hermione noticed that he was lingering on her breasts. Damn it, why did Ginny have to pick this one. She tried to cover up her chest as Draco averted his eyes. Fuck…those breasts..didn't know she was hiding the pretty rack under those damn robes.A rush of blood suddenly made his groin feel queasy. He stepped closer know, enjoying the uneasiness that he impose on Hermione. His predatory gaze, pierced into her. "It" He stepped a step closer to Hermione "is for" stepped even closer "someone " he was now trapping Hermione on to the door of the changing room. "Special" Draco murmured as hot breath ticked Hermiones neck. His expensive male cologne wafted in to her nose. Draco looked down and saw glance at her cleavage. Fuckk…..those creamy breasts…so soft. Heat rushed into his groin, suddenly feeling that his trousers was a little bit too tight for him. He leaned against Hermione, their bodies barely touching, with his hands placed on the door on each side of her head. "Someone special?" Hermione squeaked. Why was he so close… Hello mister I need my bubble her. Personal bubble. He smells nice..wait no..his cologne smeels nice..not him…hehe… She retracted and huddled closer to the door, as if she was trying to melt into the door. " Yes someone special." Draco whispered into her ear, his warm breath tickling her earlobe and her neck.
