Chapter 21

"Hermione! Help me!" Neville screamed running towards me.

"What did that boy do now?" Ginny mocked.

I kicked her from under the table.

"Neville, what's the matter?" I asked.

"Get this thing off me!" he pointed to his neck.

"O.K. hold still," I said before mumbling a spell.

Zap!

The black leech fell off his neck and splattered on the floor.

"Thanks Hermione," he walked off.

"Welcome Neville," I sat back down.

"That boy needs to be cured," Ginny smirked.

"Of what?" Harry asked.

"Klutzonois."

"You just made that up didn't you?" I stated.

She nodded.

"Well, she is right. The boy is a klutz," Ron joked.

"Guys, be nice to him," Harry said in a strong voice.

"I agree with Harry," I said before getting up.

"Hermione, where are you going?" Harry asked.

"I have a date tomorrow and I have to look nice for it. I have 5,000 galleons to spend," I walked off.

I walked into my bedroom and dug through my trunk.

"That's where I put them," I said, sorting through my favorite muggle magazines. "I will have mom deliver them to me or have an owl deliver them for me."

"Deliver what?" Lavender sat down on here bed across the room.

"Oh, deliver some new clothes I going to be buying. Want to help me choose on which to buy?" I laid out the catalogs.

"Sure," she grabbed a Dior magazine right away and circled all the things I should get.

"What do you think of this?" I showed her a navy blue knit sweater.

"It's cute, especially with this skirt," she flipped to the right page.

"You're right. That is cute," I scribbled the numbers down on the order form.

"Well, duh, I am always right on fashion choices," she started to giggle.

"Yeah, I guess you are; oh, how about this belt and purse along with it."

"Definitely," she nodded.

Two hours past of giggling, circling, and scribbling, and there were still two more magazines to go through.

"So how much money would you have already spent?" Lav asked before grabbing one of the last two magazines.

"Oh about 2,870 galleons since just about every thing is on sale," I grabbed the last magazine and began to flip through it.

"Well, then we still have a lot to spend."

"We?"

"I meant you, of course."

"Sure you did," I mumbled and wrote down more on the order form.

"Well, I did, O.K?"

"Yeah."

"Good."

"Well, here give me the catalog and I will finish get the numbers down."

She handed it over.

Five minutes past…

"Are you done yet Hermione?" Lav whined.

"Three more to go," I scribbled faster, "done."

"You took forever to do that."

"Well, sorry." I sent an owl on it's way to my house with the money and order form.

A/N: Yes, the last chapter was a cliffy, because I did not tell who screamed "Hermione!" Now that I will be started school soon I will not be able to update as quickly. Sorry!

Enjoy. Liz.
