Chapter 21

"You guy's seriously need to get a room!" Ginny said in disgust as she watched Hermione and Draco cuddle up together and kiss for the umpteenth time that night.

Hermione just stuck her tongue out and snuggled closer to Draco. It had been two days since the unforgettable day outside and since then the two didn't spend any time apart much to the annoyance of their friends.

However, now that the rest of the school had returned from their holidays, it was keeping on the down low. Though the situation wasn't as bad they thought it would be. After the war, feelings and thoughts had changed.

But Hermione had insisted on keeping their new relationship away from others, only for a small amount of time, just to get used to the idea.

They were all crowded in their secret hideout; the Room of Requirements, waiting for Ron to spin the bottle. It landed on Blaise who scrunched his face up.

It was a Saturday and this would be their last week of dares as NEWTs were approaching and Hermione had given a long lecture on how there should be nothing distracting the very important term. Reluctantly they all agreed.

"Woohoo! Okay! Make it your best!" Ginny yelled in excitement at Ron who trying his hard to come up with an outstanding dare.

Blaise threw a glare in Ginny's direction and she stuck out her tongue, wiggling her eyebrows. Revenge was sweet.

Ginny leaned towards her brother and whispered in his ear. Blaise watched as Ron's ears began to glow red. That's never a good sign.

Ron locked his eyes with Ginny who had an evil smirk captured on her face.

"You're Sick!" Ron said almost sickly before grinning stupidly. "Fred and George would be so proud!" he shouted slapping fives with each other.

"You are starting to scare me!" Blaise whispered, his tanned skin going green.

"Me too, I don't think I've ever seen you look so gleeful before!" Harry said sharing a look with Hermione.

"That's because I've never been so evilly happy in my life!" Ginny shouted gleefully, laughing.

"Just tell me the bloody dare!" Blaise shouted wanting the nightmare that was about to come to finish as quickly as possible.

"Go on Ronald, tell him!"

"Okay…prepare yourself!" Ron said and Blaise swallowed.

"I dare you too…at breakfast…walk into the Great Hall and…sing Mary had a Little Lamb in a dress!" Ron finished, clapping his hands in excitement.

Blaise stared at the red head boy in from of him, waiting for him to shout out 'It was a joke, the real dare is…' but after a long minute the sentence didn't come.

He looked at his best friend who was covering up Hermione's mouth, probably to stop her from laughing out loud. His own face held a smirk that looked as if it was about to crack with laughter.

"You can't be serious?!"

"Serious as hell!" Ginny shouted clapping Ron on the back as if he'd just done the bravest thing.

"No way! No! I'm not doing that!" Blaise shouted standing up in a fury.

"Yes you are! You have to! You're a Slytherin!"

"So what?"

"Slytherin's don't back from challenges! Isn't that right Malfoy?!" Ginny said turning to the blond in question.

"Er…She's right! Sorry mate!" Draco said stifling a laugh.

"Bloody hell! I'm…I can't…My…I have a reputation!" Blaise managed to mutter in the end.

"Say bye to you're reputation!"

--

"Shit! Arghhhhhhhhhhhh!" Blaise screamed into his pillow. Draco watched in enjoyment as his best friend screamed and thought of every possible way to back out.

"Sorry Blaise, but you have to do it! It's only a dress!"

"It's only a dress? Did you just say that?! IT'S A DRESS!" Blaise shouted at Draco as if he was finding it hard to understand what Blaise was saying.

"Yeah sorry!"

"Sorry! That's all you can say! What if mother finds out? What if the whole Wizarding world finds out?"

"Chill out Blaise, I did it!"

"You weren't wearing a fucking dress!"

"Okay, I think I'll leave you with your depression." Draco said getting up to leave.

"Yeah you do that." Blaise shouted before going back to screaming in the unfortunate pillow.

--

"Do you think he'll do it?" Harry shouted above all the noise in the Great Hall to the others.

For the past day the noise level in the hall was quite high. People catching up on stuff they had done over the winter holiday with their friends and neighbours.

"Of course. And I left him a surprise package. He'll get it when he wakes up. Actually he should be coming down right about…now!"

As he did, Blaise walked into the hall and from what Hermione could see it looked as if a force was pulling him in.

The whole room stopped their business and looked at the sight in front of them. Silence hung in the air until it was broken by a shriek and then a huge round of applaud.

Blaise was wearing what looked like a candy pink puffy dress that stopped just below his knees. He had white tights and gleaming pink shoes on his feet. And to finish the whole thing off, he was wearing a straw bonnet in white.

"Wow he's really got the hang of the whole Mary thing." Ron shouted in between laughter. "Wait a minute, the dress looks familiar." He looked at Ginny who had a knowing smile.

"Yep, the same on Aunt Muriel bought me for her daughter's wedding. I just improvised!"

"You devil!"

"And that's not all! Hold it, it should start in a jiffy!" Ginny said looking back at Blaise who was struggling with the bonnet.

And then suddenly Blaise stopped in his tracks a look of horror on his face.

"No, oh God no! Please…oh shit help. Draco help…"

Draco got out of seat, containing his laughter when a voice rang out, a beautiful melodious voice he might add. He looked around wondering where the humming was coming from when he turned in shock.

"Mary had a little lamb, Little lamb, little lamb, Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow.

And everywhere that Mary went, Mary went, Mary went, everywhere that Mary went
the lamb was sure to go.

Mhmmm mhm Mhmmm…' Blaise covered his mouth but a force pulled the hand off.

'School one day, school one day it followed her to school one day
which was against the rules.

It made the children laugh and play, laugh and play, laugh and play, it made the children laugh and play to see a lamb at school.

And so the teacher turned it out, turned it out, turned it out, and so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near.

And waited patiently about, patiently about, patiently about, and waited patiently about
till Mary did appear.

"Why does the lamb love Mary so? Love Mary so? Love Mary so? Why does the lamb love Mary so?"
The eager children cry.

"Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know. Loves the lamb, you know, loves the lamb, you know why, Mary loves the lamb, you know."
The teacher did reply.

Blaise stopped singing and looked at the audience around him. They all stood shocked food dripping off their mouths in awe; some had even fallen off their seats.

In pure embarrassment, his cheeks glowing the same colour as his dress, Blaise fled from the Great Hall, laughs and screams following him.

A/N: Hope you liked that chapter because I enjoyed writing it! Firstly, I'm sorry for not updating in agesss, I've just been blocked! Secondly thank you to Burg Gurl for the amazing dare. It's been one of my favorites and I've been waiting for the right moment to use it. And i know there wasn't much Dramione in this chapter but it will be there next time. Lastly, the story is coming to an end, probably another three chapters or so, not sure but I'm planning it so if anyone has an idea about the ending then let me know, I'll see if it's better than what I've got planned. Review and let me know.
