Chapter 4
Everyone made it to castle and all were seated at their house tables. The sorting had been completed and the feast was in full swing. It was soon time for the annual Dumbledore speech but this years was not as expected. " Welcome all to another year at Hogwarts. Just a few little niggles before I make an announcement concerning the 7th years." Whispers spread across the hall. What was he on about? " As you know Mr filch had some trouble concerning the boys lavatories last year and has asked me to remind you that putting fireworks down the pan will not be permitted." Dumbledore said twinkling his eyes over the Weasly twins " Arrh that was a good'un Fred" "Ay it was my dear brother" Fred said ignoring the disgusted look Herminoe threw their way. "Secondly the forbidden forest is that, forbidden. Now all may leave except the 7th years. Goodnight." The hall slowly buzzed out all except the mystified 7th years. " What do you think he's got planned?" asked Neville " Probably another attempt at improving house relationships." answer Hermione not bothering to remove her eyes from what she was previously gazing at before she was snapped out of her daydream 'was she the only one who remembered Draco's promise?'
Meanwhile over at the Slythrin table Draco could feel eyes on him but he didn't know where from. He shook his head and began to ponder what the old man had in store. Probably some stupid trick to improve house relationships. What a fool he thought as Goyle flicked a green, slimy boggie Crabbes way. "What u doing pack it in" Crabbe grunted throwing a fist Goyles way "Will you two try and behave like proper Slytherins. Your making the rest of the hall look half way descent." Draco drawled whilst playing with one of his expensive platinum bracelets his mother had given him for his birthday. "Sorry" Goyle muttered bowing his head in shame. "Yearh, sorry " Crabbe agreed looking at a very interesting spot on the wall. 'I'm going to have to do it' Draco thought "No time like the present" he whispered to himself. Draco raised himself from his chair and made his way passed the bewildered students at the Slytherin table smirking inwardly and the mix of shocked, amused and evil expressions shared amongst the 7th year Gryffindors. Draco sighed inwardly and braced himself for what was to be one of the most embarrassing moments of his life. "If I should stay" Draco started trying to make his voice bigger so it was louder then the giggles amid the hall. "I would only be in your wayyyyyyy" "So I'll go but I know I'll think of you every step of the way" he paused in time with the song and took one last look at the crowd of disgusted Slytherins, merry Gryffindors, perplexed Ravenclaws and shocked Huffelpuffs then turned toward the staff table to see Mcgonalgol with a stern face, Dumbledore with a twinkle in his eye and a smile playing around his mouth and Snape with a repulsed expression. He ran up to Snape, knelt in front of him and bellowed "And I IIIIIIIII will always love youuuuuu. I will always love you." the whole hall irrupted in laughter all except Snape, Draco and Mr Filch. Even Mcgonagal broke a smile. Snape signalled to Filch that Draco should be removed at once and he obliged dragging the singing Draco out the hall.
Everything calmed down and Dumbledore continued. "Well how can I top that but I will try nonetheless. I assume the feast was as pleasant as always" he received a few nods but otherwise there was no clarification that it was so as all were still whispering about the Draco incident. "Anyway straight to the point this year we are setting into motion a scheme to improve house relationships." Draco was brought back into the hall looking glum and sat down at his appropriate seat.
Hermione and Draco's pov
I knew it.
" First of all has anyone ever heard of the chest of partnership?" There could only be one hand in the air thought Draco and he was right. That stupid little mud blood always thinking she is right. "Yes miss Granger" Dumbledore said twinkling his eyes at the young Gryffindor. "Well sir in the old times marriages were decided by the chest. All 7th year students had to participate." Hermione answered. " And does anyone know haw it works" nobody answered not even Hermione. "Well every 7th years name was placed in the chest and left for 1 night. Over that night the chest will decide who is best fitted with whom. In the morning names will be paired out and it isn't house sorted either." Dumbledore finished. "But how is this relevant to you, you may ask" he said looking at the confusion mixing in with horror on the 7th years faces. "Well our plan is to temporarily place you in a marriage chosen by the chest for a year. You will have to carry out all the regulars of a marriage but it will not happen here. You will all be split up into little communities and distributed around the country. Don't worry miss Granger your education will still be as it would if you were at Hogwarts." Everyone was in shock. What did this mean ? Would they get saddled with someone they hate or would never what to marry. All the time thoughts were rusting though everyone's heads.
Harry's pov
Oh no this is the worst thing I've ever heard. I could be split up from Hermione and Ron or even worse have to marry pansy.
Draco's pov
Great, just great knowing my luck I'll be saddled with granger or Weasly. But I don't suppose that Weasly girl would be such a chore
Hermione's pov
Oh no, this is terrible what happens if Harry is taken by someone else who will I have Ron, oh no
Ron's pov
What! This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of in my life.Associating with Slytherins my eye.
Seamus's pov
dum dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee dum dee dee
But there was more "As I knew you would all be eager to participate I placed your names in 24 hours ago and should have the results any minute once Hagrid brings in the chest. Arrh here he is now" he said this really shocked people tonight. "Right " Dumbledore said as he rubbed the wooden chest he opened the lid and two sheets of paper came out " The first pair will be...................Miss Parkinson and Mr Finnegan" The names where more shocking than the last. "Miss Abbot and Mr Goyle, Mr F. Weasly and Miss Bulstrode, Mr G. Weasly and Miss brown." Than came Draco's name. "Mr Malfoy and Miss Weasly." All eyes were on Draco. What could he do? Luckily more names were read and soon everyone had a partner- Harry and Hermione, Ron and Padama, Seamus and Paverati, Neville and a Hufflepuff called Aerwein and Dean and a Ravenclaw called Edwina
Then came the communities. " The first community heading for Devon consist of....................."
A/N I know it isn't must but you know. Anyway I wanted to do something weird so I thought I'd try this. Please review and give me different ideas on the communities please it will be much appreciated.
