"I bet you couldn't last a week in the muggle world," she snapped.
"Why would I want to?" he replied with a disgusted look on his face.
"Exactly. So I fucking dare you to talk about me again. Besides, not everyone is as adapting as muggles. In fact, I think Ron is the only pureblood I know that could make it in the muggle world," she said with a smirk and started to walk away.
"That Weasel could never beat me. I'll take you up on that bet. If you win, I'll never bother any mudblood again. If I win, you have to do my bidding from the first day back until Christmas," he said devilishly. She turned to face him, face rigid.
"You're on," she said. "Where ya gonna stay?" she asked.
"Well since you brought this up why don't I just stay with you?" he said smirking.
"Fine," she whispered and stormed away.
"SOMEONE PUNCH ME," she yelled walking into the common room. Everyone turned to look at her knowingly. She got herself into, unpleasant, situations a lot.
"What happened this time?" Harry asked from the couch in front of the fireplace. She walked over and plopped onto it, groaning. Harry sat up.
"I just made a bet with Draco fucking Malfoy. I bet Ron against him," she cried. Ron whipped his head up.
"What?! What did you do Josie?" he asked frantically.
"I bet that he couldn't make it in the muggle world longer than you. I said you're the only pureblood I know that could make it. So he's staying at my house this summer. You guys gotta stay too. Please, I don't want it to just be me and him," she begged.
"What's on the line?" Hermione asked.
"If I win then he'll leave all the muggleborn's alone. But if he wins then I have to... I have to do his bidding from the first day back until Christmas," she told them. It was silent for a moment.
"I'll do it. I'm not letting that git boss you around," Ron spoke up.
"Harry and I will come too, right Harry?" Hermione said. Harry nodded, sliding down again to prop his feet on the table.
"I owe all of you," she said scooting down to lay her head on Harry's stomach. She looked at him and he looked back and raised an eyebrow. She smiled and buried her face in his stomach, "thank you," she mumbled. He laughed and pat her on the head.
"I hate myself," Josie said flopping on her bed. She had just finished packing.
"I don't have words to make you feel better. All I have is, 'Harry, Ron, and I will be there'," Hermione said and they both laughed.
"I guess that'll do for now," Josie said getting up. They went down to the common room. "I swear to god if he tries to sit with us on the train I'm punching him in the face," Josie said once they met up with Harry and Ron.
"I don't think he will, he's too proud to put this out in the open," Ron replied laughing.
"True," Josie said. "Oh, by the way, Ron you need muggle money," then she remembered how the Weasley family barely even had wizard money. "Eh I got you," she said waving off whatever he was about to say.
Luckily Ron was right and Malfoy didn't even come close to their compartment on the train.
