The plan for the dance was perfect. Spire didn't know how Draco had convinced the headmaster, but whatever he'd done, if all went as planned Snape would be glued to her for hours.
So while Draco helped her get ready for the event that night, she grilled him from every angle possible about his behavior around Harry until she managed to get something out of him. What she got was quite a bit actually. Draco had decided that Spire was someone he could trust and therefore ended up telling her everything.
His father was, like Snape, a spy for the Order of the Pheonix, and Draco was his eyes and ears at Hogwarts. He'd been in love with Harry for as long as he could remember, but the need for a facade and the hurt from when Harry picked Ron's friendship over his caused him to close up and treat everyone around him like dirt. By the time he'd gotten over the rejection, it was too late. The rivalry between Harry and himself hjad been set in place and because of Draco's father's responisbility to pretend to be a death eater, forming a friendship with the boy who lived was too much of a risk.
Spire vowed to him she'd have them shagging within the month.
At the same time, Ron was having a similiar conversation with Hermione about Faye.
Yes, they were girls. Yes, they were dating. Yes, Faye was treating her right. And no, it wasn't Ron's fault she was a lesbian.
Meanwhile, unbeknownst to all but Draco, Professor Dumbledore was having a private conversation with his favorite student (for he was still, in the old man's mind, his pupil) Severus about the need to extend a hand of friendship towards the new students. Before Snape was entirely sure what had happened, he was set to take Spire to the ball that evening.
Later when he was alone, Severus laughed to himself over the obsurdity that Albus Dumbledore should be an accomplice in a plot that would put the original four murauders to shame.
Life was funny sometimes.
