Slughorn's parties were as usual loud and crowded with people, so it was understandable that when Hermione and Tom entered they both winced slightly at the noise. A few minutes after they entered the party Tom asked Hermione if she would like to dance. I need to befriend him so why not?
"Of course." Hermione said. And so they danced, Hermione noticed that he was a good dancer and that he looked a tich more handsome when he wiped the smirk off his face, not saying that he wasn't handsome with the smirk. Wait! What am I thinking, get these thoughts out of your head Granger! A small smile worked its way onto Tom's slightly chapped lips as if he could see exactly what was going on in her mind, although he probably could.
"So Mione how are you enjoying the party?" asked Tom.
"It is rather interesting." replied Hermione. "So what's your blood status?" Tom asked.
"Half-blood. You?"
" Same" Tom and Hermione danced for 2 more songs, after which they were too tired to continue. Tom asked Hermione if she wanted to go back to the common room.
" Of course let's go."
