Chapter 21
The next day Hermione came running into Harry's room, "Harry, Harry wake up or we're going to be late." "Crap, what about our rounds?" "We've got to do them now. Get up, get dressed, grab your books." "Which ones?" "Potions, Charms, and Divination." "My two worst classes on the same day, great." "Come on let's go." Harry pulled on his pants, shirt and threw his robe on. He came out with his tie over his shoulder. "Hey, let me help you with that tie," she said as she tied his tie. "Thanks let's go." They ran out did there rounds, then ran to potions. "Oh look our new Head Boy and Girl are just on time, better get to your seats before you lose points," Snape sneered. Harry and Hermione sat down at the table next to Ron and Lavender's table. They took notes for the entire hour, when at the end Snape said, "Monday we will brew the potion that 7th years have brewed, since before Dumbledore's time." The bell rang and they all rushed out. As they walked to charms Harry asked, "I wonder what Snape was talking about?" "It probably has something to do with the notes we took today," Hermione replied. "Monday's Double Potions." Ron said. "Yeah but this afternoon is Double Divination, which is almost as bad, I wonder how many times I'll die this week?" Harry asked. They all laughed as they went to charms. "You should have dropped that for Arithmancy, or Runes, you know," Hermione said. "I agree but it's too late now, unfortunately." "If she went a week without saying your going to die would it be bearable?" "No not any better, I still can't stand it." After Charms they had lunch and went there separate ways, Hermione to Arithmancy, and Harry, Ron and Lavender to Divination. When they walked in Professor Trewlawnry said, "Mr. Potter, I predict you won't be with us much longer." "Why am I going to die for the millionth time?" She didn't respond to his sarcastic response. He sat down and attempted to listen to her useless babble. She droned on until the bell rang 'Thank God,' Harry mused, as he left the tower and headed for the Head Dorm. On the way to the Dorm Hermione called to him, "Harry." "Huh," as he turned around and stopped so she could catch up. "We need to figure out when we should hold the first prefect meeting." "How about tomorrow, after dinner.?" "Yeah, that would work." "After dinner let's post signs in the common rooms." "As long as I don't have to go into Slytheren alone." "Why would I let you do that?" "Great" and they went to their common room, and made the signs, "Maybe we should post them before dinner, we have time now." "Alright as long as I can work on my homework later," he replied, Hermione smiled at this. She realized 'Lavender's right he is much happier, but that's probably because Voldemort's gone, and Sirius is free.' Then they went and posted the notices and went to dinner. At dinner Dumbledore made an announcement, "On Halloween we will have a ball in honor of Harry Potter's defeat of Voldemort (The hall shuddered except for a few, Harry included, duh), Mr. Potter will open the ball and be the guest of honor,(Harry banged his head on the table and thought, 'Why, why.'). The ball will be opened to all students until nine, but after nine all students 3rd year and below must in their houses, for everyone else the ball will conclude at midnight. Thank you, and will the Head Boy and Girl, Mr. Potter, and Ms. Granger please come to my office after dinner, Thank you, everyone enjoy your dinner." After dinner Harry and Hermione went to Dumbledore's office, while Ron and Lavender went to the Grryfindor common room. ***In the Common room*** While working on their homework Ron and Lavender started talking. "So do you think Harry and Hermione will go to the ball together?" "I certainly hope so, plus some of the things I got out of her during the summer." What'd she tell you, I got some things out of Harry too, but I was sworn to secrecy." "So was I." "We better finish our work it's getting late."*** "Good evening Mr. Potter, Ms. Granger, I was wondering when you would have your first Prefect meeting?" "Tomorrow night, sir, after dinner." "Have you told the prefects?" "Yes sir, we posted notices in the 4 common rooms." "Now onto the second order of business." "Second order?" Harry asked. "Yes, Harry, the topic of the ball, you will be going, and it would be appropriate if you had a date, since you will be opening the ball." "Yes sir," Harry replied. "Thank you, you may go." They walked back to their common room, "What am I going to do? I have to have a date." "Well there is the matter of you owing me because of last Febuary." "But I thought we were going to Hogsmeade to settle that." "Well we can do this instead if you like?" "Yes, but I'll still take you to Hogsmeade too, I did promise that already." "So we have two dates now?" "I suppose, Friendship," they had gotton to the painting. "When is the first Hogsmeade weekend?" "I'm not sure, but it's usually around Halloween." "Well I've got to get my homework done." "So do I you know." They sat and did their homework, ocassionaly asking the other for help. When they were finished they went to sleep. *** The next morning at breakfast, Ron asked, "So Harry, do you have a date for the ball, yet?" "As a matter of fact I do." Ron looked shocked usually Harry waited for the last minute to get a date. In Ron's silence Lavender asked, "Who is it Harry?" Hermione had been smiling at all of this. Then Ron asked her, "What are you smiling at?" "Nothing," she responded. "Do know who Harry's date is, Hermione?" Lavender asked. "Yes, I do, but I'm not telling." "Then who are you going with?" "That's mine and my dates secret." "You guy's are no fun." Ron stated. "We know," Harry and Hermione said, Hermione continued, "You'll just have to find out at the ball won't you?" "Dam, you two are getting on my nerves." Harry and Hermione just laughed at them. *** That evening, after dinner at the prefect meeting. "Hello everyone," Hermione said when everyone had arrived, "I'm Hermione Granger, and this is Harry Potter, we're the Head Boy and Girl this year." "Isn't that obvious," Malfoy sneered from the back of the room. "It's also obvious you just lost your house 5pts, Malfoy," Hermione said, the look on Malfoy's face was Priceless. "Not another word, Malfoy, or 5pts for each word." Harry said. "But you can't do that..," he started. "25pts, Malfoy." Harry said clearly enjoying himself watching the Slytheren squirm. "Okay we have to schedule times for our rounds." Harry said. "Okay, does anyone have times when they won't be able to?" Hermione asked. "I can't most evenings once I start Quidditich practices," Harry stated. Mallfoy raised his hand. "Yes, Mr. Malfoy, what?" "I can't in the mornings because of Quidditch." "Alright, anyone else?" A few others had the same problem so theirf times were scheduled around Quidditch. After a little while Hermione deglagated duties and when and who would do what. They scheduled peoples duties around Quidditch practices. The meeting lasted around an hour and a half. When the prefects all left Harry and Hermione took the time to finalize the schedule, make sure there were no conflicts between Quidditch, students rounds, and classes, etc.
I hope you all enjoyed this and I am truly sorry I took longer to post then normal, I'll try to finish writing the next chapter, the much anticipated potions tradition, Thank you to everyone who has reviewed thus far. If anyone has any idea of what exactly I should do with Malfoy it would be extremely helpful, so far he's gone in two directions. Let me know if any of you have an idea thanks. The next chapter has a huge surprise, totally unexpected, it should be up or finished by tomorrow. -ears91
