Neville was stuttering, "it's, it's, it's…"

"HERMIONE!! HANG ON! STOP! WE DIDN'T MEAN IT! HOLD ON!" Parvati Shouted followed by Lavender; as Hermione stormed through the common room, flushed and angry.

She stopped and glared at her 'so called' friends. In a soft, harsh, dispersed voice she replied, "How could you? That was absolutely the most embarrassing and horrific thing anyone could've done to me! And you're supposed to be my friends!"

With that, she sauntered up the stairs to the girls dorms, and a loud click was heard, remotely the door locking.

Lavender and Parvati looked at each other in frustrated, guilty looks. They looked terribly unhappy.

Harry and Neville stunned by the outburst of the girls hardly moved an inch. They just looked at each other in confusion.

Parvati noticed the two boys, rolled her eyes and shook her head, "Don't ask" and sat down with Lavender at a table farthest away from the boys.

Neville bit his lip and Harry raised his eyebrow. "I think we should finish this conversation another time?"

Neville nodded agreeably and walked up to the boy's dorms. Unlike Harry - who walked casually towards Parvati and Lavender. Lavender nudged Parvati and sort of gave her a death stare; Parvati gave a slight smile as if allowing Harry to step into their little territory. As Harry continued to walk closer, Lavender rolled her eyes, sat back in her chair, exhaling loudly while crossing her arms.  It was Parvati's turn with the death stare, but then changed her stare to a flirtatious grin towards Harry.


Harry shortened his pace, deciding whether to go up to talk to them. But then he had no choice as Parvati spoke, "Hi Harry!"

"Err…Hi"

Lavender just raised her eyebrows and murmured a 'hi'

"Um… What was with Hermione?"

Lavender cut in, "Oh that! Don't worry about that! She'll get over it, I mean, she should…wont she?" She gestured towards Parvati.

Parvati shrugged and sighed. "She better! I forgot our key to our dorm, and I know you never bring yours."

Lavender gasped, "shit…" Harry looked confused again, "can't you just use alohamora?

Parvati shook her head, "Hermione's not dumb you know! She'll be putting about a million different spells on that door!"

"Oh yeah…Anyway! I want to know what happened! Or would you prefer me to hear it from some weirdo that heard it from another weirdo?"

"Fine! But, first, lemmie explain, what we did was done because we are both looking out for Hermione…" Lavender started, "And We want her to be with the best, and to true to her feelings"

Harry opened his mouth to speak, but Parvati held up her hand and said, "And you have to stay quiet till we finish, then you can ask all the questions you like…But…we might want to answer some of them, but that besides the point.

Harry gave a suspicious look, and nodded carefully.

Lavender took a deep breath and started explaining.

The Hall was extremely quiet and everyone from every house just looked at each other speechless. Nobody looked quite as shocked as Ron; White from shock, his eyes were as round as saucers, still holding his bread-roll.

Just then, the man of the hour Draco Malfoy walked through the doors whistling, hands in his pockets. He stopped abruptly as he realised all eyes were on him, and not a sound was made. He looked towards the Slytherin table, angry glares. He looked at the Hufflepuff table, surprised stares. Then towards the Ravenclaw table amused looks, (except the girls who all had gloomy eyes). And finally the Gryffindor Table, almost everyone had menacing looks, except a certain Red head with a stoned look, just staring at his bread roll.

His immediate reaction was to run, and don't stop running. But he was a Malfoy. He gave a smirk, and said, "What? Hasn't anyone ever seen a Slytherin whistling Greensleves?"

Nobody moved, or made any noise. Suddenly a screeching noise of a chair was made. Draco turned, and Pansy walked towards him with a fuming glare, and hissed, "What the hell do you think your doing associating, talking or even liking a bitch and MUDBLOOD like Granger?" She emphasised and spat out Mudblood. "Your little secret is up Draco, everyone knows."

Draco blinked, "What?!"

~*~

Harry blinked, "WHAT!"

Parvati and Lavender Nodded

Hermione was in hysterics; she was pacing up and down totally freaking out. Breath, in, out, Hermione took deep breaths, but they were not helping. This is all a bad dream, this isn't happening. Hermione started pinching herself, exclaiming "OW!" every time.

She sat down, agitated, biting her fingernails. She was flushed, dizzy and upset. She walked uneasily to the sink, splashing her face with cold water – looking in the mirror she saw an absolute horror, she nearly screamed. Her hair was a wreck, all over the place, more frizzy and curled then ever. Her face was blotchy and red from crying angry, frustrated tears. The mascara (which she thought was waterproof) was smudged and running down her face. She held the sink for support – took a deep breath and washed her face, brushed her hair and sat down.

Hermione had heard the bell ages ago, but she didn't care. She was trying to come to terms with what had happened at lunch…

*Parvati, Lavender and Hermione were talking normally, more about the mysterious, unknown ball. And the topic of guys came up (obviously) one in particular, no guesses needed – Draco. Hermione told Parvati and Lavender in strict confidence about what had happened previously. They squealed and badgered Hermione to admit that there was a certain spark between them. As usual Hermione gave in and confessed she felt something for him. And at that very moment Lavender asked Hermione would like to make it official, but before Hermione could ask what 'official' meant. Parvati stood up (grabbing plenty of attention) and shouted those very words that Hermione would never forgive her for, "HEY GIRLS! I'M VERY PRIVLAGED TO ANNOUNCE THAT DRACO IS TAKEN, AND TO NO OTHER THEN OUR GIRL HEMIONE GRANGER! SO GIRLS! HANDS OFF! HE'S ALL HERS!" Cracking up Lavender and Parvati looked at Hermione. Hermione couldn't breathe, and blood started rushing to her head she looked at Ron shaking her head, speechless, she looked horror-struck at Parvati and Lavender and Ran out of the hall as fast as anything, followed by the shouting Lavender and Parvati…*

Hermione was flushing at just the thought of her embarrassment and held her head in her hands. She vowed to never leave her room till she was 45 and never speak to Parvati and Lavender EVER again.

She was just started pacing up and down (again), when the fluttering of wings was heard. A beautiful owl landed on her windowsill. As she approached, the owl held out its leg, Hermione took the scroll and petted the owl briefly, and then it took off immediately.

Opening the scroll nervously, she bit her lip as she read:

Granger…I mean Hermione,

We desperately need to talk this is totally crazy. I don't really know when we can meet or how, as I'm being hunted down by my entire house. I don't know if you want to talk to me, and you probably don't, but if you do please reply soon.

Draco. M

Ps. Yeah…bout before…the dress…sorry!

Hermione smiled slightly. And inked her quill and replied.
