"Can you believe it?" Ginny asked excitedly, "This is the last week before Christmas Break! We're free in a week!" Ginny was bouncing up and down in the Head's common room.
"Mhmmm." Was Hermione's oh so intelligent reply, not surprising seeing how she and Draco were locked in a kiss that Ginny was ignoring, choosing to talk to Luna who was braiding her fire red hair instead.
Hermione didn't really care what Ginny and Luna were talking about. Hermione was feeding her addiction at the moment, well one of them anyway. Draco and Hermione's lips were crashing together almost creating sparks, their tongue's fought for dominance, one of his hands was locked behind her neck the other arm wrapped securely around her waist while both her hands were tangled in his hair. A knock on the portrait interrupted the peaceful gathering; Hermione sighed as she stood up to get the door applying her appearance charm as she went.
"Who is it?" Hermione asked, not recognizing the life signatures on the other side of the wall.
"Ugh, it's the filthy mud blood Blaise. Let's just go I don't want to be tainted." A snotty voice said, apparently attempting to whisper.
"Pansy, we need to see Draco. You heard what they said, he has to do it." The second voice replied. Hermione raised a delicate eyebrow at Draco, who suddenly had a very bad migraine, he nodded. Hermione opened the portrait dropping both the charm on her voice and on her appearance.
"Oh, hello gorgeous." Blaise said with a low whistle for her perfect figure, "Who are you?" Hermione simply giggled. Without turning from the two Slytherins, Hermione seemed to flicker out of existence for a second and reappeared in Draco's lap. She simply looked at Ginny and Luna, who had also removed their charms, smiled at the glowering Slytherin girl, and locked her arms around Draco as he kissed where the base of her neck met her shoulders.
"I love it when you do that Draco, however, we have guests." Hermione purred in
Draco's ear.
"Why are you two here? I'm coming home in less than a week, this couldn't wait?" Draco asked irritated, Ginny and Luna rolled their eyes at the same time. In the past few months they had become closer than sisters, often not even needing to speak to communicate with each other.
"You interrupted them," Ginny explained turning to the two outsiders.
"They hate being interrupted." Luna finished Ginny's sentence. Smiling at each other, Ginny and Luna began to discuss the effects of the '*lauiva' curse on the psyche of the cursed, in the language of the shadows of course, they never spoke in English if they could help it.
"I still say that the lauiva curse is much more effective, the after effects aren't nearly as bad as those of the Shadows sleep." Luna said tying black bells into Ginny's hair.
"That, my sister, is where you are wrong; for an interrogation or even just a torture technique, Shadows sleep is so much more fun." Ginny contradicted a slow smile twisting her mouth.
"Sadist." Luna giggled.
"Hello!? Earth to Blaise. What do you need mate? If it's something that can wait, it can wait." Blaise snuck a not so covert glance at the three other girls in the room.
"We'll be waiting," Hermione said, standing with the fluidity of a cat and prancing up the stairs to her room, though Blaise and Pansy didn't know that, she was followed by Luna and Ginny. Ginny looked at the two and smiled a very cruel smile.
"I'll see you soon." She almost sang, Blaise felt a chill run down his spine, Ginny gave another predatory grin, and the three of them disappeared.
"Now what is it?" Draco asked impatiently, his fingers tapping against the arm of the chair.
"Your father wanted to know why you haven't been coming to the meetings lately, the others are starting to whisper that you're a deserter." Pansy said breathlessly, nearly vibrating with suppressed anger that ANYONE would DARE accuse her Drakie-poo of such atrocities.
"Sorry, whenever the marks burnt, I've been too close to Granger for comfort. If you hadn't noticed already, the mudbloods smart." Draco scoffed, his mask firmly in place. Blaise smiled.
"He also wanted to know if you'd be coming back to the mansion for the ball this year." Draco rolled his eyes to that.
"That one, my father simply could've written about. It's not as if it's unusual for the Pure Bloods to have a get together." Draco said dismissively. " You interrupted me and mi amore for that?" Draco asked, pinching the bridge of his nose; his mind was not on the matter at hand it was with Her and the others, yes they had been gone for less than a minute but they all needed to be near each other, if not each other than at least her.
Hermione came down the stairs, her charms back in place followed by Ginny and Luna.
"And who are you?" Hermione asked grabbing a book off the shelves and sitting down on the couch, Draco immediately relaxed feeling her aura fill the room. She and the Magic were one, they got a little more addicting everyday.
'No one, Granger. We were just leaving." Pansy said with an upturned nose grabbing Blaise's wrist she stalked away.
A.N. I know not a very great chapter, but I'll get there in the mean time I have a challenge for you, when you review I challenge you to come up with one idea of either something that should happen in the story, or the way it should end.
P.S. I have a question I've gotten over 2000 hits for this story and 27 reviews, how does that add up?
