Truth, Dare, & Consequences

Flick.

Flick.

Flick. Flick.

I sighed, trying to ignore them.

Flick. Flick.

Flick.

Flick. Flick.

Flick. Flick.

"Draco! Stop it! I'm trying to study!" I groaned finally looking up at his smirking face.

"I'm bored." He sighed.

"I don't care. I need to study for this potions test. So stop bothering me." I went back to my work, but froze to glare up at him again when he flicked my ear again. He just smirked like he owned the god damn world.

I was lounging on the floor in front of his couch while he lay down across the entire thing. For the past two weeks we had been meeting up in his room every night at midnight. And just like our relationship, some nights were better than others. Tonight was one of those nights, where all I wanted to do, was get things done, and all Draco wanted to do was to be "Gettin' it done".

I snapped my book closed and turned to look at him.

"Okay, Mr. Smart-Ass. What do you think we should do?" I asked angrily, but he just gave me another smirk.

"Truth or dare?" He asked turning over on his back to look at the ceiling.

"You have got to be kidding me." I sighed. But in the back of my mind, I had to remember to ask Hermione if she had ever completed her dare.

"You can either play the game, or leave right now. You're choice." He said casually. I groaned and threw my head back, letting it hit his tone stomach.

"Fine. Dare." I said.

"I dare you to kiss me." He said, a smile in his voice. I got up on my knees, and leaned my head over his.

"That's a tough one." I smirked as I leaned down, and gently pressed my lips to his. I sensed that he wanted more, but I pulled back quickly and smirked evilly at him. He glared at me as I turned around to sit down again.

"Okay, truth or dare?" I asked him equally, as I looked into the fire place.

"You should know my answer. How can a Malfoy ever turn down the option of a challenge?" He asked.

"Fine... I dare you too.... be nice to Harry all tomorrow." I smiled at him.

"That's cruel punishment." Draco said behind me.

"I know. But this is payback for when we went public. That was so horrible!" I laughed. I felt his hand run through my hair, and tangle itself gently in it.

"It wasn't that bad, was it?" He asked curiously. I thought back to a week ago.

*Flashback*

Draco held my hand tightly in his as we walked into the Library. I felt awkward all of a sudden, like a spotlight was right on top of me.

"It's going to be okay. Trust me." Draco whispered to me.

"Yeah, okay. I can do this." I muttered to myself. I heard his snicker and i elbowed him in his rock solid abs. I made a mental note to get a muggle baseball bat, seeming as that was probably the only way I was going to be able to hurt him.

Most of the students we passed, younger and older, all stared at us as we passed. I found a tabl without meeting any of their eyes and Draco sat down next to me as I pulled out my homework. I noticed that most of the people were still staring at us.

"Don't you have something better to do?" I asked loudly, and immediatly they all turned around to continue whatever activity they had been doing up until our entrance.

"I hate you. I'm so going to get you back for this." I hissed quietly at Draco, who only gave me a breathtaking smile, and leaned in for a kiss. Which, I neatly dodged and let him plant on my temple.

*End Flashback*

"Oh! It was terrible! You should be ashamed of yourself for putting me through that kind of torture!" I shuddered dramatically. I turned around and saw him roll his eyes, then mutter somehing about me over-reacting.

"Anyway, truth or dare?" He asked.

"Why don't we make it dare or dare? Considering, we both know we are way too competitive to choose truth." I asked him.

"Fine. Dare or dare?" He asked me.

"Oh, that's a tough decision... I'll stick with dare." I rolled my eyes.

"I dare you, to let me have my way with you..." He said suddenly. I froze, and my heart rate sped up suddenly. I whipped my head around to meet Draco's curious, and excited eyes.

"Draco... I.... I can't..." I whispered.

"It's fine, don't worry. I won't hurt you. I'd never hurt you." He smiled at me, and caressed my cheek. I leaned away from his hand.

"I'm sorry. I just can't." I said quietly again.

"Why? Are you afraid?" He asked.

"I just don't want to. Okay?" I started to get angry.

"Okay. Okay. We won't yet. Calm down." He said finally, but I could hear the regret and frustration in his voice. He continued to play with my hair for a little while, and the I finally said goodnight and left after a very productive make-out session.

As I lay down when I was back in the dorm again, I couldn't help but have that little nagging feeling in the back of my head. And that weird empty feeling in my stomach. Sort of like the feeling I had when I knew something was wrong at the World Cup. I just knew that something was going to end badly. I didn't know when, or how, but I didn't like where this was going anymore.

"Wake up darling!" A voice shrieked.

"Brooklyn, get your ass out of bed." Another groaned.

"I'll get the bucket." One said menacingly. I shot up at Ruby's words, and I saw her triumphant smile at me before she went back to her bed.

"Isn't it like.... Sunday?" I asked as I looked at the clock.

"Yeah... and it's like.... one in the afternoon. We just got up too, so come on." Ophelia told me again. I flopped back onto my bed.

"I hate you guys." I sighed.

"We know, and that's why you love us." Portia smiled over me.

"Keep telling yourself that, Porsche. How's Noodles doing?" I asked pointing at her small tummy. Lately I had been giving her baby names that I thought were pretty original. She put a hand defensively over it.

"He or She is fine, thank you very much." She glared at me. I snickered and then rolled out of bed. I grabbed some jeans, a camisole, and a form fitting black sweatshirt. I showered and got dressed, then came out of the bathroom. I pulled on my running sneakers and looked at my friends.

"Ready for lunch?" I asked.

"Yeah... I kind of want to eat on the grounds though." Portia said.

"It's cold out though!" I complained.

"Nope... Apparently, today is one of those creepy days where it's like... sixty outside, and it's October..." Ophelia pointed outside to the clear blue sky and the sun.

"Oh... weird." I agreed, then walked out of the dorm room. We all met up with Woody, Leo, Fred, George and Ron.

" Hey guys. Any good pranks you've gotten around to doing lately?" I asked as we walked down to the Great Hall.

"Oh, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn!" Fred scolded.

"A good prankster never tells the secret until it's already happened." George completed.

"Right... Unless I could guess what was going to happen." I replied.

"But you know that will never happen." Woody laughed. I smacked him over the head as they left our group to sit at the end of the table. Ron stayed with us and got his food.

"Aren't you going to sit with Hermione and Harry?" Ophelia asked.

"No." He replied coldly.

"Please tell me you aren't still pissy about Harry getting into the tournament!" I called out.

"Shut up Brooklyn." He hissed at me.

"Ronald. The first task is next weekend! You need to be helping him! Not ignoring him!" I scolded.

"He's getting plenty of help from Moody if you ask me." He replied.

"Mad Eye Moody? That creepy old guy whose our DADA teacher?" Portia asked as she continued to pile food onto her plate.

"Yeah. That's the one. Well I'll see you guys later." He said as he went to sit with his brothers, and my brothers.

"Well he's acting like a prick." Ophelia assessed.

"You can say that again." I sighed.

"Well he's acting like a prick." Portia repeated. I shifted my eyes to glare at her.

"Your such a dumb blonde." I shook my head and sighed.

"I know, I try." She smiled at me. I laughed a little, and we all made our way out to the grounds. We took our usual spot on a large rock that jutted out into the lake near the forest. I sat on the edge, and took off my shoes and dipped my toes into the water. It was surprisingly warm.

I took just one bite of my sandwich then I suddenly gasped, an idea almost knocking me off the rock.

"Careful Levi Jeans! You'll fall off!" Ophelia called out.

"I know mom! Oh Merlin! I just had the best idea! I'll be right back!" I called out as I got up and began dashing across the grounds, barefoot.

I heard their calls behind me, but I just kept running toward the castle. I ran into the Great Hall and some people looked up curiously at me, but I finally found who I was looking for, and skidded to a halt near them, only my feet were slippery, and they slid out from under me, causing me to fall on my butt right near her.

"Brooklyn! Where are your shoes?" Hermione laughed loudly. Harry was laughing at my entrance as well, but I just smiled at them both.

"Outside! But you have to come on!" I tugged at her wrist.

"But I have to study today!" She whined. By now most of the scarce population in the Hall was looking on our scene.

"I will drag you where we're going if that's what I have to do. You know I will." I threatened.

"Oh fine!" She huffed, but I heard a smile in there somewhere.

"Yay! Come on! Hurry up!" I called to her, as I raced back out the doors. I heard her a little ways behind me, and I got to the rock faster than before.

"What was that about Brook?" Ruby asked from her spot.

"Did you complete your dare from the beginning of the year?" I asked breathlessly, with a smirk.

"Uh... No..." She said sheepishly.

"Ophelia?" I moved on to her.

"Nope." She sighed.

"Porsche?" My grin was wider.

"Not to my knowledge." She sighed. I grinned at them all.

"I don't like where this is going." Ophelia finally said.

"Smart girl." I pointed at her, and Hermione finally joined us, out of breath.

"What is this all about?" She asked me.

"Remember what I said the consequence would be if you didn't complete your dare given to you?" I asked her. Understanding lit up her eyes, then horror.

"Oh No!" She groaned.

"Oh yeah." I smiled.

"What? What is it?" Portia asked.

"Remember what I said? That you had to go swimming in the lake. Naked." I laughed evilly at all the mortified faces.

"Not in broad daylight!" Portia yelled out.

"How about not at all!" Hermione screeched.

"Okay... It doesn't have to be completely naked. But it has to be down to your underwear and bra." I smirked. Everyone was silent.

"For Brooklyn, I think that's as lucky as we'll get." Ophelia sighed.

"I'm not doing it unless she does." Ruby pointed at me.

"Fine. I'll show up all you wimps. Last one in has to flirt with Snape!" I yelled out.

"Eww!" Portia started to laugh hysterically. But I was already stripping down. I raced with Ophelia and Ruby. Hermione was neck and neck with Portia. When I finally was in just my navy blue polka dotted bra, and navy blue boy short under wear I ran and jumped into the water off the rock. It was surprisingly warm for October... Or for England anyway. But I'd take whatever I could. When I came up, I was met with splashes from the other girls jumping in. I laughed and all their heads bobbed up to the surface.

"Who was last one in?" I asked them.

"I don't know..." Portia said.

"Uh guys?"

"Well, whoever was laugh better speak up now." Ophelia said.

"Guys?"

"I know I went in before Ruby." Hermione jutted in.

"GUYS! THEY ARE STEALING OUR CLOTHES!" Ruby yelled out at us.

"What the hell!" I turned around to see Cho Chang, and Pansy Parkinson on our rock with our clothes in hand.

"Drop them now!" I yelled at her.

"Or what? You'll kick my ass? This is payback for stealing my man." Cho snarled at me.

"I didn't steal him. He's my friend. I'm dating—"

"Malfoy, I know. That's why Pansy is with me." She gestured to Pansy.

"Someone has a little green monster on their back." Portia scolded them, and I snorted in laughter.

"Please put those down." Hermione pled. As if that was going to help anything.

"Pleading isn't going to get you anywhere honey." Pansy smirked at us. Yeah, I so saw that coming.

"Fine. Just wait until I get out. I'll kill you with my bare hands!" I called out, and Ophelia agreed with me.

"You'll have to find your cloths first girlies." Cho smirked at us, and then they turned and dashed up the lawn and quickly into the castle. I treaded water and turned to the other girls.

"Well this officially sucks. Whose idea was this anyway?" I asked with a smile. They all glared at me, and I sighed.

"Well we aren't going to get our clothes just treading water. Let's go." I said.

"What? Inside the castle! In only our... Our.... Under garments?" Hermione shrieked, and I started laughing.

"You say under garments? That is potentially the funniest thing I have ever heard in my life." I snickered.

"You're not helping Levi Jeans." Ophelia glared at me.

"I know." I smiled at her.

"But you're right. We have to go get them back." Ruby suggested.

"Yeah. It's not like we have to fight like this. But those were my favorite jeans, so I'm not going to just let that bitch have them." Portia nodded.

"Okay, so it's settled. I hope no one's wearing anything white." I smirked and everyone laughed. We all got out of the water, and I tried to wring my hair out. I saw Portia was wearing a matching pink lacy boy short and bra set. Ophelia had on a plain red bra, and some red bikini cut bottoms. Ruby had on a yellow, blue and lime green striped bra and some dark blue bikini cut bottoms. And Hermione had on a classic black bra, and some black bikini cut bottoms as well. I checked over my own dark blue, and white polka dotted bra, and navy blue boy short underwear before we all began walking up to the castle.

"Okay. Just be cool and quiet." Ophelia said under her breath as we walked into the entrance hall.

"Yeah. Cool is my middle name." I muttered, and Portia burst out in giggles.

"Yeah, and quiet is hers." Ruby sighed as she clapped a hand over her mouth.

"Hey! There they are... Oh my god. Those witches!" Hermione said.

"We really need to get you to swear." I commented, but then followed her gaze into the now completely full Great Hall. They stood near the food table which was near the teachers table. At the other end of the Great Hall.

"I hate my life." Hermione groaned.

"Really? I love mine." I sighed sarcastically. She looked at me oddly, then shook her head. Cho and Pansy saw us, and smirked.

"Well, let's go get your jeans back Porsche." I smiled at her, and she smiled back. We walked into the Great Hall, and everyone froze. I felt my cheeks get hot as the eyes looked on us. It was so silent, I felt like I shouldn't think anything because they'd hear my thoughts.

"Well Good Morning everyone. We just went for a dip, and well... Our clothes were rudely taken from us. So, we just need them back, and then we'll leave you." I called out to everyone as I started down the aisle.

"Damn Draco. I see why you went for her!" I heard a male voice call out. And I knew the other girls were right next to me, but I still felt suddenly alone.

"Hey baby! When Draco's done with you, call me!" I heard another voice, and some cat calls rang out. I felt even more alone. My cheeks were almost on fire. We were finally face to face with Cho and Pansy.

"If these people weren't here. I'd kill you." I kept my voice down.

"Honey. Either way, my deed is done. You're life is over." Cho smiled at me. I grabbed my clothes from her hands and glared at her. The other girls took their clothes.

"My life was already on it's way out before you wanted a piece of it. So what you just did was nothing really. Sorry to disappoint you, but nothing you do to try and hurt me will work. You are the least of my worries. So go dig a ditch and go die in it. That would do everyone a favor." I told her off, letting my voice ring loudly in the quiet hall. I turned on my heel and it took all my willpower not to run out of the hall. I didn't care if the girls were behind me or not.

It seemed like finally everything that was happening in my life had finally crashed down on me. It finally had it's devastating effect on me. I ignored the stares from the students in the corridors, and the strange and disgusting comments from some of the ghosts and paintings as I made my way into the dorm room. I got back into cloths, I got under my covers, and I waited for the world to end. Because that's honestly what it was beginning to feel like.

Okay! Brooklyn's life is going down the tubes! Isn't that just great? not really... but whatever! Anyway! I have school break this week, so guess what that means! Right! More writing! Which means... Faster updates! YAY! Alright... I'm like... super tired. thanks to my loyal reviewers! You keep me going! -Mooch
