Time passed by quickly and those encounters with her stalker had not
happened in a
while. Soon enough it was Halloween. Hermione went to the dance as a 'witch,' or what
muggles thought witches looked like. She had a long black dress, made a crooked nose,
and had all the necessities. Draco went as a zombie. He had a black suit on stained with
'blood' and an 'ax' cutting through his head. Harry and Ron both went as vampires. Chris
and Andrew dressed up like pawns (wizard's chess). It was a great dance. The Weird
Sisters were very good. Draco and Hermione took a walk outside the castle in a garden.
"Thanks Draco," Hermione said softly as she rested her head on his shoulder. "For
what?" he asked as they continued walking. "For being there for me. You are such a great
guy - I'm lucky to have you," she said and smiled. "No, I'm lucky to have you," he said
then kissed her passionately on the lips. They went on for a few minutes then broke apart
and continued to walk around the garden hand in hand.
They decided to go back into the school and dance. Ron, who sat alone and dateless, felt
a tinge of jealousy. After they stopped dancing, Ron walked over to them. "May I dance
with Hermione?" Ron asked Draco, but Hermione too, of course. "Yeah, sure, if 'Mione
wants to," Draco said calmly then looked at Hermione. "Sure Ron," she said. His face lit
up. Hermione kissed Draco on the cheek then took Ron with her to the dance floor. The
two danced and then Ron thanked her. "You're welcome," she smiled. She had not seen
Ron this happy in a long time, and it made her feel good to know she was the reason he
was happy. She walked off the find Draco. Bunches of girls were around him, talking to
him, a few flirting with him. She saw Pansy was among them. She was furious with
Pansy and practically stormed over to Draco and to his relief. "Oh! There is Hermione!
Good bye ladies," he said in an excited tone as he tried to get away from them. "Hey
baby. Sorry about that," he said and frowned. She laughed. "I don't blame them," she
said and began dancing with him again. The dance was great fun for Hermione. At about
midnight, everyone returned to his or her room.
The four Prefects went to the Gryffindor common room knowing there would still be a
party there. Sure enough, there was. Fred and George had out fireworks and other crazy
things. They charmed the fire so that you could actually pick it up without hurting
yourself. There were little bits of fire everywhere and were being thrown around. At
about three in the morning McGonagall came in to the room, made them all go to bed,
and clean up. The Prefects did most of the work then went to bed.
Time passed by quickly again. It was nearing Christmas time. Ron, Harry, Hermione,
Chris, Andrew, and Draco were all staying. Draco had the hardest time making up a
persuasive excuse for staying. His father usually had Draco go home for Christmas.
Draco finally decided to just say he needed to stay due to the fact that he was a Prefect
and had responsibilities he needed to fulfill during Christmas vacation. He was especially
worried about Hermione. This person had been following her again. She was having
problems studying and spent many nights awake in her room.
Finally, many of the students left. There were only a few people from each house left.
Therefore, there were two tables at the Great Hall. Hermione, Draco, Harry, the
Weasleys, and many teachers, including Dumbledore, usually sat at one table, while
everyone else sat at the other. Draco enjoyed being able to spend more time with
Hermione and not have to worry about it. Christmas Eve there was a large feast. Ron and
Harry were in heaven with all the food. Dumbledore chuckled as he watched Ron's eyes
widen at the sight of so much food. "Wow! Look at all this food Harry!" Ron said as he
looked around. "Pigs..." Hermione snorted under her breathe and Draco began laughing.
They all took their seats and the feast began. Fred and George talked about Quidditch the
whole time. Ginny talked to Hermione when Draco was not, and Ron and Harry talked
about various things.
The next morning the Prefects found their presents in their common room. Chris and
Andrew took theirs to the Ravenclaw common room while Hermione and Draco took
theirs to the Gryffindor common room (unwrapped, of course). Hermione, Ron, and
Harry exchanged gifts. Harry and Ron had gotten sweaters from Mrs. Weasley. Ginny
gave Harry some candy. Everyone received many presents. Chris and Andrew gave
Hermione and Draco Wizard's Chess. Hermione could not help but laugh when she
opened that present.
AN - Whoa! I wrote a lot there... lol! I am not going to add another chapter until next week, okay? I am going to be very busy this week! In addition, if you want a nice Christmas chapter - do not complain! lol!
