"Mr. Malfoy, Ms. Granger, may I speak to you in my office for a moment please?" Dumbledore said. Draco and Hermione were on their way back to the common room from Double Potions with Snape when the Headmaster stopped them in the hallway.
They were very surprised to hear that the Headmaster wanted to speak with them. Had they done something wrong?
The two nodded their heads, thoroughly confused. As they followed him to his office, Hermione smiled at the ring on her finger. Right then she realized how much she had. How lucky she was do have someone like Draco, and she never wanted to give it up.
"Mione?" A voice knocked her out of her reverie. She head shot up as she saw Draco motioned to follow him up the steps.
Draco and Hermione followed Dumbledore into his office and sat down in two chairs in front of his desk. The old man sat down and smiled.
"I asked you to come here to ask you a question." He said. Hermione and Draco looked at each other and looked back at the man.
"I understand this is short notice, but I have not been able to find someone to perform at the Yule ball." He explained. Hermione had a slight idea of what was coming next.
"And I was wondering if you two would perform a song for the ball. I have been asking many people, including Parvati and Padma Patil, Ginny Weasley and Harry Potter, and Lavender Brown."
Draco's face drained of what color it had and his mouth hung open. Its not like he would absolutely not do it, he was just not the singing type, despite his skills that came and went, depending on his mood.
"Of course Headmaster!" Hermione practically screamed. Well she was excited.
"Wonderful! I know its short notice, but the Weird Sisters cancelled." Dumbledore told the couple. After that note, Draco sighed of relief. Anything was better than the weird sisters.
"You two may go now, you have class in 5 minuets." Dumbledore said as the two got up to leave the office.

"What are supposed to sing? We have two days to come up with something!" Draco said as the two sat on the floor in the common room. They were surrounded by Hermione's CD's, trying to figure out something.
"Don't worry, we'll find something soon." She answered, as she continues to flip through CD's. She had brought her Discman, to listen to music on. She had gotten permission from Dumbledore to use it, since it was a muggle item.
"How about this song? I think it would fit really well." She told him. She handed him the headphones. He began to listen to the song and smiled.
"Yea, this would work really well. Who sings it?" He asked as he took off the headphones.
"Her name is Mariah Carey. I love her music, she's really good" Hermione explained. Draco nodded his head.
"I think we should get started on it right now" he told her. "It may be getting late, but we cant afford to wait till morning" He said as he helped Hermione pack up the rest of her CD's.
The two took out the lyrics and began to organize how they were going to sing it.
* * *
"That should be so cool! I can't wait to hear you sing!" Harry exclaimed. Hermione, Ginny and Harry were sitting at dinner on Friday, discussing the ball. (Ron was in detention, of course)
Ginny nudged him in the shoulder.
"And of course Malfoy will be good too" Harry said through gritted teeth.
Hermione smiled. Even though he was forced to say it, it still made her day brighten even more.
"So, Mione, what are you going to wear?" Ginny asked her as Harry began to talk with Dean about the upcoming quidditch match against Ravenclaw.
"Oh, I was going to change the color of my dress I wore to the Halloween ball." She told her nonchalantly. Ginny looked at her as if she was crazy.
"Nonsense!" Ginny exclaimed. "Come on, were getting you something different, besides, that's a muggle dress!" Ginny stood up and walked over to Lavender and Parvati. She leaned over and told them something and their eyes widened. They jumped out of their seats and dragged Hermione out of the Great Hall.
* * *
"Come in here, well help you pick out a robe" Parvati said. Lavender was jumping the whole way and Ginny was laughing evilly, and then cracking up.
"We need to hurry up with this, Draco and I need to practice some more." Hermione said as she walked into Parvati's room.
"Don't you worry your pretty little head, this will only take but 20 minuets." Lavender said.
Before Hermione could respond, the closet was open, and Ginny came out with a pile of dress robes. She dropped them on the bed and held a green one up to Hermione. It had long sleeves that went past her fingertips.
"This would look great on you. Try it on!" Ginny exclaimed as she pushed Hermione into the bathroom. Hermione quickly changed into the robe and looked at herself in the mirror. It looked great on her. As she continued to admire the robe, a shout came from outside of the bathroom.
"How does it look?" One of the girls yelled. Hermione quickly opened the door to reveal how she looked.
"You look amazing!" Lavender squealed. The girls circled her and smiled.
"You can wear it" Parvati said. Hermione smiled.
"Thanks you guys." Hermione said as she walked into the bathroom to change back.
