A/N::thanks for the reviews everyone! I also noticed I've been misspelling too. Heh, I will do spawn of Satan word spell check this time.
Okay, another new person forewarning, Derek Diggory is Cedric's little brother also, though he is a seventh year. Yes, I made him up also, but hey, I was out of characters for my plot.
Chapter 5:
After Hermione shut her door, Vincent started to speak. You know, Hermione, I guess you and Draco are going out..." he had a creepy glare in his eyes.
" W-why do you say that?"
He snarled." Don't try to fucking hide it from me!" he yelled at her." I know what you're doing! Why didn't you do it with me, you bitch?!"
She slid out of his eyesight and sat at the foot of her bed." Vincent, what DO you know?"
" I SAW YOU TWO SNOGGING IN POTIONS CLASSROOM TODAY!" he yelled. After calmed down he spoke again." I'll just let you know, that when you're not with a boyfriend..." he walked over to her," you're mine." He walked out of the door, who was followed by Hermione. He and Draco exchanged glares as he walked out of the Commons Room.
" What did he want?" asked Draco.
" Nothing, it was nothing"
" Tell me, I heard him yell-"
" He just said he saw us today in the potions classroom, and that you should stay away from me because if I have no boyfriend, then I'm automatically his...but don't take it personally or even heed his word, he is just creepy but won't do a thing about it." Hermione sat down and saw Cho on one of the couches." What's up?" she asked.
" Well..." she started, uneasily." Harry's asked me out..." Hermione was stunned because she still liked Harry also." Yeah, he told me not to tell you though, because he said he still likes you and-"
" What did you tell him?"
" Well, no. Because I would want a boyfriend to like me, you know. Then well, I told him 'besides, Hermione still likes you...' then he just walked away, muttering oh..." she said.
" Why did you tell him that?!" asked Hermione.
" Oh I don't know. It kinda slipped...I'm VERY sorry..."
" It's ok. He knows I'll never been seen dating with the likes of him after what he did."
" Course you won't, Hermione...he's friends with Weasel after all..." teased Draco.
" So Cho, who you going to the dance with? Please don't say Vincent," said Hermione.
" HIM?! No way...I'm going with someone my age, besides just because Vincent's in my house doesn't mean I'll go with him..."
" True" stated Hermione.
" Anyway, I'm going with Derek Diggory, you know who he is. Cedric's little brother, muscular, brown hair, Hufflepuff Keeper?"
" I know that bastard..." said Draco.
" That's nice to know" replied a very sarcastic Cho.
" He's got it in for me.(" I wonder why" said Cho in the same tone) I tell you. Then again, he's in for any Quidditch guy who's way hotter than him..." stated Draco vainly.
" Oh, well wrong person Draco, because as you said, he's only in for anyone who's hotter than him..." she smirked. Draco snickered." What about you two, who are you guys going with?"
" Ah, um, well I might just go with Vincent, seeing Harry and I broke up..." stated Hermione solemnly.
Cho looked at Draco, knowing he wanted to go with Hermione. Knowing him though, he would say something else to cover up." Maybe Pansy Parkinson. I think Padma Patil will do. She is way hotter than Parvati. (" and a whole lot bitchier" Cho commented)-Exactly."
" I bet Harry and Ron'll go with Parvati and Lavender. Even though they will have to dodge through jealous fans." All three laughed.
The next three weeks went smoothly. It was only three days before the last day of school-and the Winter Ball. Hermione was sure by now she was stuck with Vincent. Draco also had no one, but planned to ask Hermione during lunch that day.
As usual now, Hermione sat next to Ginny and occasionally sat with Katie Bell, a magnificent Quidditch player since she was twelve, a seventh year now.
In the middle of lunch, Draco came up to Hermione. Vincent saw Draco and sat in the seat across Hermione. Harry and his band were watching also.
" Why hello, Draco. What brings you here?" asked Vincent, quite jealous.
" Funny, I was about to ask you the same...though I came on my own business thank you very much," he chided.
Vincent, just glared and gritted his teeth." May I know WHAT your busine-"
" Okay, Vincent shut-up! Draco was here first. Talk when he's done!" Hermione yelled. After she calmed down, she turned to Draco." Yes, Draco?"
" Well, since I KNOW we both have no one to go to the ball with, I suggest we go together. Better than making me look like a fool without a girl" he said coolly. Ginny blushed. Harry and his gang watched. After a long pause, Vincent spoke up.
" That may not be poss-"
" I-" she waited for Vincent to shut up."...would love to..." she said, slightly sarcastic so no one around her thought that Draco was her new, Insta-crush. Vincent shot her a dangerous, though harmless look and stomped back to his table.
" Very well..." said Draco walking away.' Good job! God I'm good...Course, she can't resist me. And boy, at the dance, she won't be able to keep her hands off me' he thought, mentally giving himself a thumbs up.
Everyone else around Hermione looked surprised at the reply she gave HIM- Draco Malfoy! 'Awesome...' she thought.
*********************************************
" Draco, pleeeaaase?! I know you want to ask me to the ball...so go on!" pleaded Pansy.
" Bug off, Pansy...I've already got someone. So do you" he said shaking her off his arm.
" Yeah, but I can always stand Blaise up for YOU. Besides, who is this 'girl' that you asked?" she asked disgustedly.
" Hermione Granger..." he muttered.
" That Mudblood?!" she shrieked. Many Slytherin heads turned to him.
" Yeah her...got a problem with tha-"
" Draco, that Gryffindor head girl? Heh, I always knew you would start to like her. After all, she is basically your rival and ever since she broke up with Potter, she's become a real bitch" said Blaise congratulating himself," I knew you wou-"
" Blaise! Don't interrupt me...I don't want to talk about it," he ordered. The rest of the day, no one asked about it.
" Hermione!" called Cho." Hey, Derek and I and some friends of his are going to Hogsmeade in a couple minutes. Want to go? We can by our gowns there."
" Oh well..." she answered, thinking about the homework she had." Oh alright. I don't even have a dress yet. Let me get something else on right now."
In Hogsmeade, it seemed as if all of Hogwarts was there-except third years and under. They couldn't attend the Ball. Cho thought it was good to have Hermione and some of her friends with, that way they could enter stores the guys would be embarrassed to show their faces in.
Hermione was surprised to see Ginny shopping with her gang. Surprising part was that she was with Ron, Harry, Parvati and Lavender.
" Parvati, let me buy this for you..." Lavender, this would look wonderful on you, I should know..." were some of the many things their fans would say to the two very annoyed girls.
In Glady's Glorious Gowns shop, Cho, Hermione and Katie Bell(who met up with them) bought their gowns there. Cho bought a spaghetti strap top with a long skirt that was red and gold. Katie had a dark maroon dress that resembled Cho's though it was a one piece, no straps. They both had gold shawls to cover their arms.
Hermione's had a similar design and was dark green velvet. Instead of spaghetti straps on the top(the dress was all one piece), the strap went over to one side . The skirt part seemed to be silk underneath and there was a layer of sheer over it.
" Hermione that brings out the color in your eyes..." Cho gaped." It's gorgeous!"
" Yes Hermione, a bit long for me though..." they turned around and saw Draco. Crabbe and Goyle were waiting outside.
" That's too bad you malicing rat!" yelled Katie- who like most Gryffindor, hated Slytherin. Draco made a sarcastic sad face and patted his chest where his heart was.
Cho and Hermione saw Derek waiting outside and walked out. Draco followed them." What'll become of your blubber pals?" asked Hermione.
" Those two? Those tubs can take of themselves. Besides, you wouldn't want THEM around."
" Guess not" agreed Hermione.
The day of the dance was hectic. The teachers were stressed and snappy.
" Button that up more!" " Your legs show too much!" " Tuck in your shirt!" " Cover your shoulders!" " Don't squeeze your arms inward to tempt the men with your bosom!" were some of the many remarks the teachers made. The great hall was closed for after lunch and dinner until the ball. Everyone had to eat outside.
" Hermione, can you tell me which eyeshadow works best on me?" asked Cho.
" Well, the gold one definitely not. Maybe that onyx. Now you tell me which one would look better on me."
" Hm, that green dress...lets see, try the onyx also. Try the sage eyeliner with it. They blend in together."
In no time at all, seven o'clock arrived. Everyone over third year stood at the entrance of the Great Hall, waiting for their partner if they weren't in the same house.
Okay, another new person forewarning, Derek Diggory is Cedric's little brother also, though he is a seventh year. Yes, I made him up also, but hey, I was out of characters for my plot.
