Chapter 26:Draco's(and my)Birthday party
"Katie!Come here a moment!" I heard call me.I ran to her room,and nearly triped as I entered.
"New rug?"
"Yes,do you like it?"
"Yes,It's lovely."
"Come here,Katie,I want to give you your birthday present."
"Oh,,you didn't have to..."
She pointed to a light blue dress the color of a tropical had a pleated bodice,with small waist had a pattern of rihnstones,small and the waist the dress flared out,with a shimmering over center of the skirt had a twisted and pleated strip.(A/N:go tp this link to see actual dress..too fancy?.com/itm/Turquoise-Organza-Formal-wedding-pageant-birthday-Girl-Dress-4-14-years-old-/290643689415?pt=Girls_Wedding_Apparel&var=&hash=item8960b170c10)
It looked like it would reach to my calves. I stared at it for a I reached out to touch felt lie flowing water,smooth,yet crisp.
"I...I..."
"You do not need say anything is your birthday present."
"Wow...I...Thank you!" I finally managed.
"Will you wear it for the party?"
"Yes,of course!" It's not like I had anything else to wear.
I picked up the dress,and hurried back to my five minutes I back in Miss,Narcissa's room,twirling around,and showing her the dress.
"You look stunning!" My black boots clashed terribly with the light blue sheen,but I didn't would be looking at my feet,when I such a beautiful dress was wearing?
"Now for shoes.." looked at my boots.
"I was thinking we could transfigure them.."
"Katie that is a wonderful idea!" She exlaimed and quickly pulled out her she changed my ordinary black boots,into stunning white heels.(A/N:link here .com/p/Girl-s-Cherokee-Gaille-Dress-White/-/A-13783590)
"And now your hair." She pointed for me to sit in a chair in front of her vainity table.I sat,and quickly she began undoing my braids.
She waved her wand and my hair piled onto my did another wave and down came a few waved her wand until she was happy,which took about two hours.
"There,and now you look like a true young lady."
I looked in the mirror and was amazed.(A/N:Link here .com/images/search?q=wedding+hairstyles+for+girls+ages+12-14&view=detail&id=&first=31&FORM=IDFRIR)
I turned around in my apperence.I did look good.
'Katie meet me in the drawing time.'
",can I go sgow Draco?"
"Of course,but be carefull!"
I walked carefully out of the room,and into mine.I grabbed Draco's present and walked quickly to the drawing room.
This year I had made him a Slytherin scarf. Thans to the past two birthdays,and this one,he had a Slytherin hat,scarf and sweater.
"Happy birthday Draco." His back was turned,but upon hearing my voice he turned around.
He looked dashing in his suit,black of course,which only brought out how pale he was,and his hair.
"Katie,you look...amazing."
"Thank you,now present time." I handed him his present and he handed me mine.
I unwrapped the small box,and looked inside.
I pulled out the pair of matching hair were in the shape of flowers,with blue rihnstones.
He held out a hand,I gave him the clips,and he placed them in my hair,on either side of my head.
"The piece de resistance!" I said. He laughed,and opened his.H pulled out the scarf,and raised a eyebrow at me.
"I want you to have a whole set by twenty!"
"At this rate I will have a whole set at 15!"
We both laughed. And he threw the scarf on,where it looked terrible with his suit.
"Take it off before someone sees you!" I nearly father would not like it,I don't know why,I just knew.
"Scared of ol' dad?"
"Within good reason." I pulled a face,and he laughed.I stuck out my bottom lip in a pouting sort of way.
"Don't laugh..." I said,acting as though he had hurt my continued laughing. I smacked his arm,and he grasped it in mock horror. Now it was my turn to laugh.
"Come on,the party is in half an hour,and half the decorations arn't put up." My accent was starting to show,because I was nervouse.
"Calm down Katie,it's called magic...it solves many a problem." I laughed and slumped down on the couch.
Blaise walked in and sat down next to gave him a look I couldn't read,but I felt a twinge of jelousy that was not my own. I looked at Draco in a curious way,but thought nothing of it.
"Happy birthday." Blaise had long since figured out that Draco and I shared a birthday. Draco fell down on the ground as if in a faint.
Blaise shot up and knelt beside ran a hand through his hair,in opened on eye,then closed it quickly.
"Draco,stop scaring the wee little boy."
Blaise looked at me reprouchfuly,while Draco burst out laughing.
"What the bloody hell was that all about?"
"I just wanted to make sure you cared about me Blaise."
"Aww,look at the wee couple,making up." I ran out of the room before the boys could pelt me with pillows.
An hour and a half later I was standing at the door,opening and closing every five seconds,while Draco,Blaise,and greeted guests. Master Lucius was upstairs in the parlor,making sure the guests didn't get out of hand.
When finally the last guest arrived,Draco and I sighed in had followed the last guest,and was in the kitchen,making sure everything was ready.
"Bet I can win." He grinned at me.
"Three words:You are on!" We ran,up the flight of stairs and down a corridor.I was happy to find I could still run in the dress and shoes.
I beat him by a fraction of a we got into the room,still panting,we saw only somber faces.
"You Slytherins sure know how to party." I looked one said a word.
"Ok,you do know this is a party not a funeral,right?" I raised an eyebrow. Draco laughed.
"Cricket,cricket,cricket." Blaise,said Lucius stalked out of the room.
"Ok,thats it!" I walked over to the radio,put in a C.D. and turned it up really loud.
The first song was "Rock the Casbah" one of my personal the kids there didn't know it,but Draco,and Blaise had spent enough time around me to know it.
Blaise grabbed my hand and pulled me to the center of the room,again I felt jelousy that was not my own. Draco grabbed Pansey,who looked uncomfortable.I started dancing with Blaise,not a organised dance,a dance where I could have fun. Draco,taught by me,started to look more relaxed(yes I had to teach him how to relax...)but Pansey,I think she was a bit freaked out. Soon the other Slytherins joined us,looking a bit scared they were 'letting loose',but at the same time having fun. Pansey started swaying, and I looked at each other,he smiled then I swung Pansey closer to Blaise and I.
"Come ON Pansey! You CAN have fun!Just forget that people are around,and you tend to have more FUN!"
She looked at me like I had gone mad,then she smiled and started dancing.I stood in shock for a few minutes,then started dancing again.
The song ended,but was quickly replaced by 'Copacabana'. I laughed as Blaise pulled me to the center for yet another time it was more of a tango,exept less close and was more -way through the song Blaise and Draco switched partners,meaning I was dancing with Draco...I WAS DANCING WITH DRACO!
Little 13 year old me nearly had a heart ?I don't know.I had always been Draco's dance partner for his lessons(yes Draco had dance classes) only because I was the perfect hight...but this was cause Draco choose me to dance with...all on his own..
"Why are you still thinking about us dancing?"
"What?psh,I am not thinking about us dancing."
"You are."He let go of my right hand and raised his left hand to his head,tapping it lightly.
"Oh,well,yes I was,but I was thinking anout the dance lessons,and how I thought they didn't help at all."
"Well,then I am just naturally this good."
"Sure,keep telling yourself that." We danced the rest of the night.I hoped it would never end!
Happy 13th Birthday to Me!
