Broken Wings

Chapter 14: The Halloween Ball

By: Midnight Walker

Asyah woke the next morning feeling tired. 'Aww man, note to self: don't have sex with your boyfriend and go hunting in the same night.' Asyah rolled out of bed slowly, and went to go shower. After her shower asyah felt more awake and moved at a faster pace. Soon she was ready to go meet Draco and go down to breakfast.

Since tonight was the ball, all classes were cancelled so everyone could relax then get ready. Hermione saw Draco leaning on the marble banister of the grand staircase in the entrance hall. As asyah eyed him up, she noted he didn't look tired in the least. Although he looked pretty hot. Ever since asyah introduced him to rock music and fashion, he had taken an abrupt liking to it. As he stood there in his black jeans with a silver dog chain hanging out the pocket, black boots, black t-shirt that said 'Victory shall be mine', and his hair falling into his eyes like that; it would make any girl melt.

"Hey sexy." She said as she slithered up against him with snake like grace. He looked down at her; this was necessary for him being 6'1 and she being only 5'6, and smiled. He looked over her outfit. Asyah wore a army skirt that went to mid thigh, fishnets, a tight black shirt with netted see through sleeves, a black dog collar, and her trademark knee high lace up boots.

"You look pretty sexy yourself." He said in her ear. Asyah smirked as a group of girls went pass and eyed her outfit and scowled. She rolled her eyes. "You know I was thinking that maybe you shouldn't sit at your house table anymore." He spoke looking into her honey brown eyes outlined in black with light silver eye shadow.

"Draco, I don't know…your house does not like me. Asyah, you are not Hermione. You're someone else, someone better. Even if you are still muggle born, you are more powerful than anyone at that table. Plus no one would dare lay a finger on you while you're with me." He gave her a cocky smirk, and turned to her. "Come on." He pulled her toward the Slytherin table like he owned the place. The hall was staring at them as they walked, but Draco didn't seem to mind, so asyah didn't either. When they reached the table, he sat down at pulled her down next to him. He addressed the table, "guys, this is asyah, my girlfriend. Asyah welcome to Slytherin." He said giving her waist a comforting squeeze. A boy with auburn hair spoke up.

"Hey, aren't you that mudblood bitch, granger?" he asked. Asyah's eyes turned cold and intimidating.

"No, so don't ask me again." She said staring at him. For the rest of the morning they made light chit chat and asyah made plenty of friends. When they were done, asyah turned to Draco, "Drake, come with me to the head table, to talk to Dumbledore." She spoke softly. She turned to the rest of the Slytherins. "Catch you guys later." They all mutter there scattered goodbyes. They made their way up to the head table all the while others staring at them. Finally asyah got a little annoyed at the staring and snapped at a 7th year Hufflepuff, "What the hell are you looking at?" the seventh year didn't answer and just went back to her food blushing.

As she finally reached the head table after what seemed an eternity. "Professor Dumbledore, I was wondering can I change my house. Gryffindor just isn't working." She said bluntly.

"I believe you can. Just come with me to my office to get re-sorted." He said getting up from the staff table. They followed him to his office, and once inside, asyah was told to sit on the old stool she had sat on first year. She was a little apprehensive at first because the old stool looked as if it would break if she put a finger on it. Finally Draco convinced her to sit down on the godforsaken stool, and get sorted.

"Back again Ms. Granger?"

'Yes. I want to change my house.'

"Well let's see…you have indeed undergone a change since our last meeting."

'I know.'

"You have more ambition to prove yourself. Oh, and so cunning and evil too! My, my, what happened to the sweet brave little girl I once knew?"

'She died. She was not up to the challenge.'

"I see. You have definitely changed. But, where to put you?"

'If you know what's good for you, you'll put me in Slytherin.'

"Are you threatening me?"

'Yes.'

"Then I shall put you in Hufflepuff."

'If you put me in Hufflepuff I will rip this hat off and burn you then I will shred you to make sure you are beyond repair'

"Slytherin!"

Asyah looked around her new dorm. There was artificial sunlight cascading in through the windows that were charmed to show the outside. Asyah looked at the clock, 4:30. 'I have absolutely nothing to do.' She thought. Asyah took a shower and crawled into bed and drew the hangings. 'I might as well go to sleep; it will help pass the time and I am sleepy.' Asyah fell into a deep sleep.

She woke hours later to someone shaking her. "The purple monkey stole my sack of potatoes again…" then all of the girls in the Slytherin dormitory started laughing. When they had recovered, they tried to awake asyah again, this time succeeding. Asyah having taken a shower before everyone else didn't have to rush around. She sat at the vanity table, and did her hair. The heated her wand a curled her hair around it, making tight spirals. She tied half of her curled hair in a pony tail and the other half hung down her back. She did her make up with was black eyeliner with smoky eyes. They were a heavy black in the front but as they eye shadow went back toward her eye brows in got lighter and lighter till it was barley noticeable. Next she pulled out her dress and put it on. It had once belonged to her mother. She had seen it one day as a child and took it before her father could throw it away. As she stared at herself she was amazed. The entire dress was made of black see through lace, but the parts that needed to be covered such as her chest and private areas, where covered by a non-see through jet black strip. It was strapless and hugged her every curve. You could see her legs it up to mid thigh, her flat pale stomach, and her arms through the material. At the bottom of the dress it flared out a little so she could walk properly. Her shoes she had bought in diagon alley where high heeled black strap stilettos. All in all she looked gorgeous. She put on a black diamond bracelet, necklace, and chandelier earrings that Draco had brought her when she told him her dress was black. He had insisted that she tell him what her dress looked like, but she told him no. he got a little upset but that soon faded when she kissed him senseless.

"Wow, asyah you look great!" said mina. Mina had been transferred in from New York City the middle of 5th year so no one really knew her. Asyah turned from the mirror and towards the beds in which all the girls were sitting on fully dressed and ready to go.

"Thank you. This dress was my mothers." She went silent after that turning back towards the mirror again.

"Well I don't mean to interrupt this awkward silence ya'll got going on here, but im ready to party!" she said jumping up from the bed. The other girl's were suddenly really enthusiastic and jumped from the bed with mina. "Come on asyah. We gotta get our party on!" asyah smiled and followed her out the dormitory and slowly down the stairs as both were wearing stiletto heels. Asyah saw Draco standing with the rest of the boys, talking. He so evil in his simple black pants, boots, black button down dress shirt that was open to reveal the upper half of a masculine chest, and leather cloak, that asyah wanted to rip all his clothes off now and shag him right where he was standing. 'But the shagging will of course have to wait till later I suppose…' she thought. He turned his head as asyah reached the last step and looked at him. She saw his face register shock. 'Just what I was going for…' she thought.

Asyah slithered up to him and kissed him softly on the lips. "You're not going to stare at me the whole time are you?" she asked nudging him in the side.

"No, but I could only imagine how quickly you can get out of that dress…" he said in her ear. Asyah smirked and looked him in the eye.

"Now, now the true fun where we rip off each others clothes will have to wait Draco." she said interlocking her arm with his. "Now come on, and let's make an appearance." She said. Asyah and Draco walked out arm in arm leading the Slytherins. As they neared the entrance hall, asyah noticed Professor Castillo standing there talking to professor Snape. Professor Snape beckoned her over, and asyah told Draco to wait for her.

"Yes professor?" she asked innocently and if she wasn't wearing a black dress made of lace.

"I heard from albus that you have transferred into Slytherin?" he asked clearly wanting a reason why.

"Yes, Gryffindor was becoming a nuisance to me. It seems I have changed over the course of this summer, but certain people can't handle change." She said staring him in the eye.

"Indeed I agree it was for your safety that you changed into a house more to your liking a comfort." Professor Castillo scoffed to Asyah's left.

"Im sorry professor, but do disagree with my choice of housing?" asyah asked innocently.

"No of course not," she snapped. "But I would like to comment on your dress. Don't you think it's a little too revealing for someone your age?"

"No. Not at all." Asyah said coldly. Asyah heard her say under her breath,

"Children walking around half naked for all the boys to see…you mother must not care very much about your well being, if she allows you to walk around like that." She said. She hit a nerve that much Severus could tell. Asyah turned towards her fully, looking her in the eye.

"Are you my mother?" the professor shook her chestnut brown head no. "Then why are you in my business?" the professor stayed silent. "You're right my mother doesn't care at all about my well being if she left me at home with my abusive father when I was 4 with nothing but a letter." Asyah walked back to Draco and disappeared inside the great hall.

"Are you alright?" Draco asked noticing her flushed face.

"Don't worry I will be." She said smiling the anger already disappearing. As asyah fully took in the beauty of the great hall she felt like she belonged. There were no longer the long house tables, in there place was soft green grass all through out the hall. There was also a strange mist just above the grass that seemed to circle your ankles to pull you down. The sky above was pitch black but there was a bright red full moon with a frosty circle around it. The scene was like a graveyard on Halloween night. Headstones were placed here and there, and every so often bats would fly about. Asyah soon led Draco out on the dance floor where they grinded to just about every song. At one point, seeing as the music was muggle, they were playing Asyah's favorite song Slept so long.

"Walking, waiting, alone without a care. Im hoping and hating things that I can't bear. Did you think it's cool to walk right up and take my life and fuck it up? Well did you?" she sang with her head back her face toward the ceiling.

"I saw hell your eyes, taking in by surprise. Touching you makes me feel alive. Touching you makes me die inside." Draco sang along. Asyah moved her body against him with snake like grace, that made every guy watching forget there date. After about 10 more songs Dumbledore walked up to the front of the room. The music stopped.

"I had recently decided to have a prize at the end of the ball, for the couple that can dance the best. Good luck." The crowd cheered loudly.

"Come on asyah, ready to show them what we got?" Draco asked looking at the couples starting to dance.

"Oh yeah. Let's show them what Slytherins will always be the dominate in whatever we do." She said kissing his cheek. They walked out onto the dance floor and the music started up again. The hired DJ was playing 'What you waiting for?' By Gwen Stefani. Asyah pressed her back into his chest and rotated her hips in a circular motion while going down towards the floor. She did the same motion while coming up to her starting position. His hands found her hips he moved against her. Asyah looked over and saw autumn displaying some seriously sexual moves on Harry, while the boys around looked on enviously. Asyah narrowed her eyes. 'So she wants to play dirty,' asyah thought as she locked eyes with autumn. She smirked. The DJ put on 'Disco Inferno' and asyah did just what 50 cent asked; she shook her ass. She danced as hard as her dress would allow, and had a great time. At one point Draco picked her up and she wrapped her legs around his waist, laughing the whole time.

After he put her down she pushed him away, and said, "Watch." She was in the middle of the dance floor surrounding with everyone looking on as she rolled her body like a snake. Asyah ran her hands down her body as she danced, looking seductive to Kylie Minogue's 'Love at first Sight'. She put her hands above her head looked at Draco the whole time, his eyes never leaving hers. "Everything went from wrong to right. And the stars came out fill up the sky. The music you were playing man blew my mind; it was love at first sight." She sang to him. She reached out and grabbed his shirt and pulled him to her swaying body. "I love you Draco Lucious Malfoy, I hope you know that." She said to him as they danced.

"I love you too, asyah." He said as he grabbed her face and kissed her sweetly. It wasn't a hungry kiss; those were to come later on. This kiss displayed love and caring in it. There lips moved gently against each other and there tongues danced slowly. They broke apart when the need for air was dire and Dumbledore walked onto a makeshift stage.

"Ah, now for our winners." Whispers broke out and everyone exchanged looks. "Yes I said winners, for there was two outstanding couples that showed there love for one another all through out this ball." He paused. "Our first couple is Mr. Malfoy and his girlfriend Ms. Granger, or as she is now known as Asyah." Asyah walked up as if she owned the place confidence radiating of her laced form. They stood next to Dumbledore as he waited for the massive cheering from the Slytherins to go down. He smiled at them all. "And our second couple who showed outstanding love in their dancing will be, Ms. Autumn Ramirez and her date Mr. Harry Potter." The Gryffindor's cheered madly for Harry, while the Slytherins cheered even louder than before for autumn, to drown out the Gryffindor's. "Ah yes your prize will be let's see," he said putting a long finger to his chin. "How about no homework for a week?" he said smiling at them. The couples said simultaneously,

"That'll work."

Later when the ball was over with, asyah and Draco lay in bed together with a thin sheet thrown over them. The curtains were closed to the prying eyes of Draco's roommates. Asyah lay on Draco's slowly rising and falling chest, thinking. Her thought's ranged from her relationship with Draco to them being a vampire to the fate of the world. As she continued to stare at the dark curtain lost in thought, she didn't noticed that she had being drawing circles on Draco's stomach. Draco looked down at her, and saw his lover deep in thought. He stroked her face softly, bringing her back to the world of reality.

"Thinking?" he said to her.

"Yeah, I didn't mean to wake you." she said as she looked into his eyes.

"No problem. Come on stop thinking for a couple of hours, im sure your brain would appreciate it." He said a smile working its way on to his face.

"Ha, ha very funny." Asyah said but snuggled close to him anyway. She soon fell asleep to the rhythmic of his hand stroking her hair. It had indeed been a night none of the Hogwarts students or staff would ever forget.
