Chapter 14
When Ron walked away from the Slytherin table, the Slytherins were patting Lilac on the back and giving her high fives.
Lilac raised her head proudly, "Yes, I did show him, didn't I?" The Slytherins snickered but suddenly they hissed as Hermione stomped her way to their table. She stopped when she was about 6 inches from Lilac's face. "What do you think your doing?!" Lilac merely looked bored and asked, "What?"
Hermione rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, "Ohh yes! I forgot the fact that Slytherins were brilliant!" Lilac glared at her, "What do you want, Mudblood?" The Gryffindors heard this and started cracking their knuckles menacingly.
Hermione felt the heat rush to her face. "How do you know I'm a Muggle- born?" she asked, ignoring the term Lilac used. "Because," Lilac sneered, "You're in Gryffindor and all of them are either Mudbloods or Mudblood lovers!"
The Slytherins nodded in agreement and the Gryffindors made their way to stand behind Hermione. Daemon was leaning casually against the wall with his arms folded, watching the argument with a look of expectancy on his face.
Hermione and Lilac were circling each other but never took their eyes off the other. Soon, the whole student body was chanting, "Fight! Fight!" Even Hagrid was yelling at Hermione to curse her into the next year, but he was soon silenced by a sharp glance from McGonagall. The rest of the teachers were trying to make their way through to the girls, but the students wouldn't allow them to pass.
Draco leaned on the wall next to Daemon. After a few moments of silence, Draco said in a half-joking and half-serious voice, "So, who do you think is going to win?" Daemon looked at him, then at the girls, then turned and smirked at his cousin. "Believe it or not." He paused. "Granger is going to win."
Draco's eyes almost popped out of his head. "Granger?! You aren't serious, are you?" Daemon shook his head. "Nope, I'm Daemon, and yes, Granger is going to win!" Draco looked at him as if he just told him Dumbledore was his father. "Ok," Draco replied slowly. "I'm going for Lilac then."
Daemon snorted, "Why are you going for her? She's a disgrace! All Parkinsons are!" Draco stepped away from the wall and raised an eyebrow. "Are you challenging me?"
Daemon also stepped away from the wall and faced him. "Yes I am, are you scared?" he finished mockingly.
"Scared of what?"
"Losing a bit of money!"
"How much are you willing to bet? Especially if you think Granger could win?"
Daemon looked thoughtful. "How about 300 galleons?" This time, Draco snorted, "Now who's scared?"
Daemon scowled, "Fine, 500 galleons!!"
Draco cackled, "I didn't know a Malfoy could be THAT cheap!" Draco scoffed and continued. "Even Weasley could be in this bet for only 500 galleons!" Draco smirked in triumph and amusement on the look of annoyance on Daemon's face.
"5,000 galleons!" Daemon shouted.
"Perfect!" Draco grinned like a Cheshire cat.
Daemon put a finger on Draco's chest poking him hard in the ribs. "Be prepared to lose!" He turned away to watch what was going on. "Ugh! When are they going to fight?! Are they just going to stand there circling and staring at each other all day?" He said impatiently.
Draco scowled while rubbing his rib gently. Then suddenly he frowned looking at Daemon. "Wait a minute! I know you know Lilac Parkinson, but.how do you know Hermione Granger?"
Daemon's eyes widened a bit but he returned back to the way he was so fast, Draco couldn't tell if he did anything at all. "Well?" Draco demanded. Daemon looked at him mysteriously, then silently made his way out of the Great Hall.
