This is the start of Draco really proving how much of a good guy he is becoming. Its also the start of Pansy's downfall.
Owning Harry Potter I do not.
Chapter 53: The Plan
Draco's POV
"ALRIGHT YOU GITS SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN! THIS MEETING IS NOW COMING TO ORDER!" I yell out to the Slytherin common room where the students had gathered.
The room got quiet and all eyes are on me and Pansy...god why does she have to be so close to me?!
"The headmaster said that we have to improve morale in the school. He said and I quote 'the Dark Lord requires us to unify and get along with purebloods of other houses' so we have decided to throw what we call a Pureblood Ball."
The room erupted with whispers. I didn't feel like telling people to shut up so I let Pansy take the floor.
"The ball is for 4th through 7th years and are for Purebloods only." said Pansy. "If for some idiotic reason that you decide to take someone that isn't Slytherin you must make sure their blood status is pure. Here is a list of some of the purebloods that we know about that are in different houses. You must have a date. No exceptions."
"Alright you're dismissed get out of my face"
The students went their separate ways. Pansy turned to me with a dumbass smile on her face.
"This is exciting. Our first ball as a engaged couple!"
"Yeah...I'm just jumping with joy on the inside" I said with nothing but sarcasm in my voice.
"So what color dress should I wear?"
"Excuse me?"
"I need to know what color you're going to wear so I can match it"
"Oh... well I'm wearing black"
"Black?"
"Yeah. Cuz Ginny is gonna wear green" I said with a smile.
Pansy looked at me with disgust. " I don't fucking believe this. You're taking the Weasley girl?!"
"Her name is Ginny and of course I am. Who else would I take?"
"How bout your fucking fiance?!"
"Fiance? Oh no she's not my fiance. Just my girlfriend."
"WHAT?!"
"I knew there was someone I forgot to tell. Look Pansy, sooner or later I'm going to find a way out of this arranged shit. I don't want to be married to you. You know this. Why are you trying to force something that's not going to happen?"
She looked as if she was going to cry. I truly didn't care. I got up and walked back to my room.
I opened the door to see my princess laid out on my bed doing homework. How does someone look good while doing something as boring as homework?
I guess I see why the Weasel fancies Hermione so much.
"Your highness"
"Draco"
"What are you working on?" I said climbing on top of her laying down on her back.
"Potions. Have to do an 8 inch essay on polyjuice potion. I wish Hermione was here she would be a great help. She brewed one her second year."
"Really? For what?"
"Classified"
I give her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Do you need some help?"
"No I'm good. I'm almost done just need a conclusion. I'll put it away for now"
She waved her wand and her papers and quill sorted themselves and went neatly into her bag.
"Now get your heavy ass off of me so we can talk about this plan of yours" she said raising her bum to try to push me off.
"Oh yeah. Pressing your ass into places is a sure way to get me off of you"
"Prat"
I laughed as I climbed off of her and sat on the bed. She laid her head on my lap and looked up at me.
"So, did Snape go for it?"
"Yes he did. It's happening the night before Christmas Break."
"Do they know?"
"Yeah. I told the Slytherin house a few minutes ago. The Gryffindors know?"
"I told Parvati and Lavender. The gossip team will make sure they know by the end of the day."
"What about the Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs?"
Luna and Padma will see about the Ravenclaws. Susan and Ernie will tell the Hufflepuffs."
Ernie. That fucking prick.
"Don't make that face Draco. Ernie is harmless."
"Ernie is a fucking git. I bet he felt good when you told him about it.
She rolled her eyes. "He asked me immediately and of course I said yes. I practically threw myself at his feet and he took me into his noble arms and-"
"I get it I get it you need to shut up"
I'm teasing. You're worse than Ron. He was eager but I told him I already had a date."
I smiled. A couple weeks ago Ginny, Zabini, Parvati, and I came up with the plan to shake things up. We were going to throw a ball that is meant for purebloods only.
That is really a cover. The muggleborns were also going to have a very huge party in the Room of Requirement. They would be at it for hours and then be caught. But by the time they get caught Snape would be notified and the Carrows would appear to not be on their job. And the Dark Lord hates when his followers don't do their jobs.
I knew all too well.
It was small but it would cause a stir. And give us an idea of our next plan of action.
I had to admit it felt alright to be working with the good guys.
"I think we have it covered." said Ginny sitting up. We will just have to let the muggleborns of the other houses know and hope to Merlin they agree to it. Then again, with this Muggle-Born Registration Commission act going on I don't think the muggleborns will be here much longer. This is so fucked up. 1st years will be going to fucking Azkaban!"
The muggle born registration act was at first a ministry thing only. But it had extended to the school and now all muggleborn teachers and students were in danger of going to Azkaban. Parents had been trying to get their children out of the school for weeks with no avail. Muggle authority had no jurisdiction in the wizarding world so they couldn't very well say they children were kidnapped or anything like that. The situation was fucked.
"Isn't Parvati supposed to be here with you too?"
Ginny gave me a glum look. "She was but Blaise came by and they went somewhere. What's with them? They been getting awfully close lately."
"Probably cuz we are around each other here a lot."
"But she doesn't talk to Harry like she used to. Something is wrong. You don't think that she would cheat on him do you?"
I thought about it. I mean I knew that Blaise fancied Parvati. He has mentioned it...a few times. But as for the other way around I didn't know.
"I guess we will have to wait and see. I really don't see her stepping out on Potter though."
"How's the Pansy situation?"
Shit.
"Well...she knows. About us."
Ginny looked at me. A smug from came across her face. "How did she find out?"
"I told her."
"Really? I hope she wasn't too upset."she said laughing.
"Oh I think she took it rather well." I said.
I'll know how well she took it soon enough. I always look forward to our talks." said Ginny rolling her eyes.
Ginny's POV
As predicted Pansy had cornered me in the library about two hours later. She was still bitter about the tie prank I pulled on her ass a couple months ago. I guess she just can't get over things.
"Weasley" she said sitting on the chair at the table I was studying on.
"This seat's taken."
"Then I won't be long. Heard a nice bit of gossip about you today."
She can't play coy to save her life.
"What was that? That me and Draco are dating? Heard it straight from the source didn't you?"
She looked at me like she was ready to fight. I stuck my hand in my pocket and held onto my wand just in case.
" What are you playing at? He's fucking engaged!"
"Yeah. To a cow who he doesn't fucking want that can't seem to take the fact that he is not into you! Look why don't you do him a damn favor and tell your parents and his bastard father that you don't want this?! Why be engaged to a man who doesn't love you?"
She looked at me with a mix of anger and hurt. Oh damn I hope she doesn't say any shit to make me feel sorry for her.
"He was fine with it before you came along. We were well on our way to being the it couple of Slytherin. 4th year he took my virginity. Bet you he didn't tell you that!"
I looked at her with a bored expression on my face. "He did actually. Look I have work to do where are you going with this?"
"Like I was saying we were fine until you showed up. You a sleazy Gryffindor blood traitor coming and using your body to corrupt poor Draco. Sick."
Okay that's fucking it. I stood up and leaned over the table and got in her face.
"Let me tell you where you are wrong. One: I didn't go to Draco. Draco came to me. Two: I'll wear the title of blood traitor proudly instead of being filth like you. Third: I didn't have to use any body part to "corrupt" Draco. Unlike you I have conversations with people to get what I want. Not hand my vagina out to every fucking wizard you see fit. Yeah. I've heard the stories. For someone who is so worried about her engagement it sure doesn't stop you from fucking Crabbe and Goyle. So how about you do yourself a favor, and stick this bullshit right up your-"
I close my mouth as a thought popped into my head. Of course! Why hadn't I thought of this ages ago?!
"I have to go...I need to have a talk with my boyfriend. Toodles!" and I run out the library at top speed.
