Morning dawned bright and clear. Hermione stretched lazily and saw that Draco had changed clothes and was fiddling with the CD player. He looked up as she sat up and frowned at her.
"It won't work anymore." He said. She stood up and stretched luxuriously. She walked over and glanced at the small machine.
"The batteries must be dead." She yawned. She grabbed the clean clothes she had brought in, went to the magical door and stepped into her bathroom. She took a quick shower, dressed and came back out feeling much better.
"What the hell are batteries?" Draco demanded as she walked in. She stared at him then her eyes fell to the Discman.
"Oh! Right. Um batteries are the energy source that powers that thing." She stammered. She turned and went back through the door to her room, grabbed some batteries and came back. She took the player, changed the batteries and handed it back to him. "It should work now." She said. He took the batteries from her hand.
"Amazing." He said. She laughed and he scowled at her. Suddenly the door opened and Bon walked in.
"Well today I'm putting you with a group of some of the other campers. I'm very sorry about what happened. I only went in as far as the riddles. I had no idea there were so many monsters inside. Well, come on." He said. They followed him to a large room where several teenagers were sitting in a circle. They walked in and the girls stared at Draco lustfully. Draco either didn't notice or he considered himself above them, whichever way he didn't acknowledge their looks. They sat down and stared at the group around them. A girl with several piercings on her face looked up from where she was painting her nails black.
"What are we supposed to be doing here?" She demanded in a Brooklyn accent. No one knew the answer to that question. She glanced at Hermione and Draco, giving the later an appraising look. Hermione was disgusted; did all women fall to his feet in submission? "Who the hell are you two? You haven't been at camp with us."
"Uh, yeah. We have a private schedule." Hermione said the first thing that came to mind. Draco glanced at her and raised an eyebrow.
"What're your names?" A lanky boy from the other side of the circle asked. Draco glanced at the boy witheringly.
"M name is Malfoy. Draco Malfoy." He said coolly. He seemed unfazed by some of the giggles in the room. This surprised Hermione. She distinctly remembered him snapping at Ron went he had laughed at Draco's name.
"My name is Hermione Granger." Hermione supplied after giving Draco a puzzled glance.
"What school do you go to?" A tall redhead asked. Hermione took a quick look at her companion. Draco hadn't lost his usual bored, cold expression on.
"I don't see what business that is of yours." He said calmly. She was taken aback by the harsh words said in such a calm voice. Hermione wanted to call out and tell the girl that Draco was just a stupid git and tell her where they went to school, but she knew that it was better that they think that they were insufferable than that they know their secret. A tense silence followed.
"Let's, like, play truth or dare!" A small blond exclaimed excitedly in a valley girl style voice. Nobody seemed to have a better idea so it was agreed. "Okay, like, rules are you can, like, refuse a dare or a truth but only, like, once. And if they, like, refuse you have to, like, make up another dare, so like, no rephrasing. Like, alright? Okay! Like, I'll start." She looked around the group. "Ben, who do you like?" She demanded.
"Are you two an item?" Ben asked next. Hermione and Draco's eyes widened and they responded at the same time.
"NO!" They cried, remembering the six years of loathing between them. Since they had been asked together they had to decide whom to ask together. They settled on asking the blond what activities she did. Hermione and Draco were hardly ever asked questions after that, but when the punk girl's turn came she grinned.
"So, Draco, do you have a girlfriend?" She asked licking her bottom lip seductively, however she was disappointed when Draco's expression didn't change.
"No." He said simply. She frowned. Draco turned to look at Hermione and smirked and she was scared of what he might ask.
"Truth or Dare?" He demanded. She bit her lip. If she chose dare he might demand something ridiculous. On the other hand if she chose truth there was a lot about Harry and Ron he wanted to know.
"Dare." She said hesitantly. He grinned and she wondered if she had chosen the wrong one.
"I dare you too…"
A/N. Sorry about the cliffhanger! PLEASE review!!!!
