~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*

So Draco grabbed his potions book and homework and headed downstairs with Hermione who of course as always had her book with her. When they got to the common room they sat down at one of the large tables off in one of the corners. And they started working with Draco almost always asking Hermione for help. When they were almost finished Draco said, 'Have you noticed that so far we haven't had any Defense Against the Dark Arts? I wonder who is the teacher?'

Hermione took out her schedule and said, 'It says we have Snape for DADA. I can't believe this I can hardly stand him in Potions. It says we have him tomorrow, this sucks.'

Draco was looking a little paler than normal. He couldn't stand Snape even in potions so how the hell could he stand him for two classes. Even though he acted like potions was his favorite class it really wasn't. Then he said really sarcastically, 'Oh, no, why do I have to have him as a teacher in one of my favorite classes. It's bad enough that I have him for potions, but now I have to have him in DADA. That's just great.'

Hermione looked at him and said, 'I was just thinking the same thing.'

They finished up their potions homework and were talking for like five minutes when Padma and John walked in. John said, 'Well I think we should start preparing for the dance after all we are the ones who have to plan it.'

They were discussing what they were going to do when Hermione came up with a great idea and stated it, 'I think we should have Hagrid's largest pumpkin with a big carved face right in front of the Great Hall's door so the people have to walk through it to get to the Ball. And then we should have a few songs playing while everyone comes in. Of course the pumpkins will still be floating and same with the candles. Then we will have the diner and when diner was over the 1st through 3rd years will go up to bed. Dumbledore will give his usual speech and then we start to dance with the prefects and Head Boy and Girl will start. So what do you think about my idea?'

All of them said in unison, 'I love it, it is a very good idea.' Draco kissed Hermione and she started to blush.

Just then Katie and Derek walked in kissing. All of them were thinking how did they get through the statue when the were sucking each others tonsils out. Well they stopped immediately because they heard Hermione and Padma giggling. Katie was blushing and Derek was trying to make up and excuse. Then Padma said, 'Well another of us is getting together that leaves you and me John.' When she said this she blinked and John started to blush so much that his face was as read as Ron's hair.

Hermione and Draco told Katie and Derek what Hermione's idea was. They also agreed that it was a really good idea. They all went up to bed because it was way past three in the mourning.

When they woke up in the mourning they got up and got dressed. Then they got all their books that they would need for the day and put it into their bags. They went downstairs and Hermione and Draco held hands and walked to Dumbledore Hermione's idea. They had to run it by him and he had to see if it was ok. He said it was an excellent idea and that he would tell Hagrid right away to start making his largest pumpkin larger.

They said their good byes and headed down stairs. They had their breakfast and waited for Harry and Ron to finished and headed to Defense against the Dark Arts. When they reached the room Ron told Hermione and Draco to look inside. Draco looked inside and said, 'Its ok it's a women I think it's a pregnant women.'

When they walked in she said, 'Hi, I'm Professor Snape the potions teacher's wife. And I'm your new Defense against the Dark Arts teacher. I will be teaching you how to protect yourself from the Death Eaters for even though the Dark Lord is gone they are still in power.'

Ron said, 'Oh my God, when the schedule said Snape I thought it meant mean and evil Snape.'

Professor Snape heard him and said, 'Oh, you are talking about my husband. I know all of you think he is really mean you just need to get to know him and you will see. As I was saying the reason I wasn't hear the last few weeks was because I was having my first baby. It is a healthy baby girl named Angelia.'

The class was almost as good as Professor Lupin's were. But still it was much better than Professor Snape's class. (I mean potions professor). They all went to Transfiguration after that and they were running a little late. Actually Ron and Harry were there on time it was just Hermione and Draco. 'Ah, mister Malfoy and Miss Granger how nice of you to join us.' The only seats that were available were in the back so Draco and Hermione gladly took them. They were talking the entire class and only heard her say, 'Blah blah blah blah.' Then when class was over they headed down to lunch. When lunch was over there were no more classes so all the team headed down to the Quidditch field. Hermione came along with Draco. Since Ron was Keeper, Harry was Seeker, Fred and Gorge were beaters, Katie, Alicia, and Angelina were the Chasers, Draco and Harry would switch off every game. They were practicing for their first game tomorrow. It would be Gryffindor vs. Slytherin. Draco was going to be the Seeker this time to get back at all the Slytherins.

They were practicing till nightfall when the team was tired they all headed up to bed. Hermione and Draco walked hand in hand up to their dormitory. Draco went to sleep immediately and Hermione turned on her radio and listened to a few songs wrote down the name and artists of the ones she liked and blew out her candle and turned the radio off and went to sleep.

Hermione woke up before the sun was up to Draco sitting on her bed. She asked him what he was doing there and he said, 'Happy Birthday Hermione.' (A/N: I really don't know when her birthday so I just made one up just to let you know it's the 6th of October.)

'Thanks Draco.'

He handed her a present and she opened it and said, 'Its really nice thank you its really pretty.' It was a really pretty necklace that had pendant that was shaped as a heart the colors were the Gryffindor colors gold and red.'

They spent the rest of the darkness just talking. As soon as it was daybreak they went down to get an early breakfast. The rest of the team joined them and they walked outside it started to rain. No it wasn't just raining it was poring and there was lightning and thunder. Draco was really getting worried how was he exposed to find the Snitch in this weather. They all went to the locker room and changed into their Quidditch robes. And went outside. They saw the Slytherin team walking out in their green robes. Madam Hooch walked out with her robes of a bright orange.

She said, 'Now I want a nice clean fight the game will began when I blow my whistle.' There was a clap of thunder and you could barley hear the whistle over the howling of the wind. Twenty minutes of Jordan cussing and Professor McGonagal yelling Draco saw the Snitch and went after it the Gryffindors were up Forty-Zero. He knew that if he caught the Snitch that the Gryffindors would be able to win the Quidditch Cup.

He pushed his broom down and dived down. He grabbed the Snitch and pulled up just in time. Gryffindor won. They all flew down and Hugged Draco. Then they headed to the locker room.
