Chapter 13 - Bucks and Hens Night

"Ron, Ron! What are you doing?" screamed Charisma as she got onto a broom. "You'll see!" laughed Ron, hurrying along. "If you hurt her Weasel..." started Draco. "I won't Draco, Trust me!"

Finally Charisma felt herself land on the ground, "Are we here?" "No," giggled Jasmine. "Ron, I could kill you!" screamed Charisma trying to take her blindfold off. "He's not here anymore," informed Jasmine, "Brace yourselves girls!" Next thing Charisma knew was that she was dizzy as hell.

She landed with a thud on the ground. "Come on, Don't slack off!" Claire spoke this time as someone pulled her up. "Where are you taking me?" "How many of you are there?" asked Charisma as they slowed their pace. "Not many." Charisma was told to stop. She heard one of the girls speaking to a man and then had to keep on walking. Suddenly she was blasted by music and her blindfold flew off. "Ohmigod! Where at What! I used to come here all the time," squealed Charisma jumping up and down, "whose idea was this?" "Ron," said Claire dreamily. "All right I'll see you soon, I need to get changed!" Charisma walked over to a guy in the bar, that she obviously knew. He took her behind a door. 5 minutes later Charisma came out with a completely different outfit on. She had black pants, with glitter through them, and was wearing a low-cut, silky, silver top. "Gee she looks gorgeous," said Jasmine, when Charisma came out. "But, doesn't she always?" continued Claire. Charisma hit the dance floor and so did everyone else. Charisma wandered a little and met up with some friends she knew.

At about 11, Charisma went into a room to freshen up. As she washed her face, the door opened. As Charisma looked at herself in the mirror, someone was standing behind her. "What the?" Charisma jumped around. "Mackenzie, it's you," Charisma made a sigh of relief as she recognised who it was. "So how have you been?" Mackenzie drew closer, "awful, thanks to you." Charisma looked at him startled, "what are you talking about?" Mackenzie cornered Charisma, "You leaving me. You left a hole in me." Charisma shook her head, "No, I didn't think that would happen." Mackenzie's eyes narrowed, "You left me, Charisma! You were the joy in my life and now I find that you're engaged...to a Malfoy! I may be an Australian, but I do know about the Malfoys." A tear ran down Charisma's cheek, "I'm sorry, but I'm arranged to him. No matter what I had to marry him." "You left me Charisma! You left me to answer questions. I was alone. Nobody liked me after you went." Charisma wiped her face; "Maybe you should've made your own friends. You're a loser; I don't know why I went out with you! Why are you here anyway?" Mackenzie pulled his wand out of his back pocket. "To get one last fuck." Mackenzie waved his wand and a rope came out and bounded Charisma hands together. "You're not so powerful now, are you?" he said as he got closer to her. "Nooooooo!" Charisma screamed and the lights flickered. Mackenzie laughed, "is that all you can do? Wait 'till I'm finished. I'll put a curse on you so no one loves you again." Suddenly the door burst open, "Charisma..." A very close friend, Josh, came in. "Expelliarmus!" shouted Josh and Mackenzie went flying into the wall and lay unconscious on the other side of the room. "Charisma, are you okay?" asked Josh, waving his wand to remove the ropes. Charisma cried, "I think so." "Come out back, we can have a chat." As Josh escorted Charisma out of the room, he ordered a security guard to take Mackenzie away.

"Are you sure you're okay?" asked Josh, 5 minutes later as the sat on hot pink couches. "Yeah, it was just shock," replied Charisma drinking a cup of hot chocolate that Josh had made. "But how did you know?" "The lights went down, and I remembered that when you got stressed that the lights stuffed up," said Josh smiling. "And I saw you walk into the room and never come out, so I thought I needed to check on you." "Thanks Josh, you're such good friend," Charisma kissed him on the cheek, "Anyway, so who did you come with?" Josh looked at her, "what do you mean?" "Well you didn't come here alone, did you?" asked Charisma smiling. "You didn't get my letter, did you?" asked Josh surprised. "What letter?" asked Charisma curiously. "Aah...stupid owl, lucky I did get rid of him." Charisma giggled, she remembered when Josh's owl would pretend to deliver letters but never did. Why, there were so many love letters she never received from him. "Anyway," Josh smiled, "I own this place now." Charisma dropped her mouth in horror. "Are you serious? Aren't you a little young?" Josh laughed, "Nah, dad bought it for me. I just need to pay him back." "That is so good. Good on you!" Charisma smiled. "I was surprised when it had some of my designs." "So, what's new in your life?" asked Josh as he settled himself on his couch. "Umm...I'm engaged," said Charisma showing off her ring. "Yeah, I know...it was all over the magazines down here. Do you like him though?" asked Josh, worriedly. Charisma smiled, "You know what? I fell in love with him before I knew we were arranged."

"That's great! Congratulations!" Josh got up and hugged her, then snuggled comfortably with Charisma. "You know I really miss you." "I really miss you too," whispered Charisma. "If you weren't arranged, do you reckon you would've been with me?" "Yeah, I do." Charisma relaxed even more, "I really want you to come to the wedding." "I don't know if I'd be welcome...Being your first and all." Charisma giggled, "well you have to come, being my first and all." Josh smiled, "do I have to speak to your mother?" Charisma chuckled, "She's not coming." "She tried to sleep with him too, didn't she?" Charisma nodded. "Please come Josh, I'd really appreciate it." "I dunno..." Josh shook his head, "I might get jealous and ruin the whole day." Charisma smiled, "there's gonna be cute girls." "When is it?" laughed Josh. Charisma giggled too, "God, I've missed you Josh," and fell asleep in his arms.

While all that was happening....

"Weasel, you better watch yourself. I know we're flying and if I fall and die...I'm gonna haunt you!" "Relax Malfoy, everything is going to be fine!" assured Ron, with a cheeky grin on his face. Draco and Ron threw some smart comments across to each other. Finally they reached their destination. Ron took the blindfold off of Draco. Draco smiled as the lights of Las Ruby glistened in his eyes. Las Ruby was like Las Vegas, but especially made for the Wizarding World. "I hope you brought your money!" laughed Ron and they flew into the city. They walked into the first casino and were greeted by some half-dressed hustlers. "Hey girls," greeted Ron. The girls smiled, "Hey." "All right, we all meet here in an hour," Ron said to the guys. "Well that's not long," whined Draco. "We have other places to go Draco," informed Ron and then waltzed off to play some wizards chess.

Draco strolled through the casino, he wasn't going to waste his money, he was just going to watch everyone else waste theirs. "Hey Stranger! Feeling Lucky?" a tall, attractive blonde approached him. "My name's Sway." Draco smiled, "And my name is I'm not interested." Sway touched his butt, "Oh come on!" "Look, I'm getting married tomorrow," Draco started to leave. "Ahh, Mr. Malfoy?" Draco turned around to his name, "How did you know my..." he saw Sway holding his wallet and snatched it off her "...name." "Be careful." Sway smiled as Draco walked off.

"Wow! That was amazing. You'd never believe how much money I won!" exclaimed Ron when they all met up. "And you wouldn't believe how much I nearly lost!" told Draco. Ron led them to a glass door. Draco looked through and saw an empty blue room. "Name?" asked a tall built wizard. "Weasley," Ron smiled and the wizard opened the doors. Inside was a stripclub. "Ron, I don't want to be here," moaned Draco. "Oh, let loose Malfoy." Ron took Draco and the other guys to a table near the front. Draco tried to look everywhere but there. Suddenly, Draco saw Charisma approaching. "Draco!" she came up and kissed him. After 2 seconds Draco pushed her away. "Draco what's wrong?" she asked. "You're not Charisma," Draco observed her. "What do you mean?" she went to kiss him again. "Charisma would never be in one of these places, full of girls," pointed our Draco. "She doesn't wear that perfume...which no offense, smells horrible. And when I kiss her, I get a rush. You don't do that." Charisma turned into Sway. "Looks like you know her well." "Sway..." Draco shook his head, "How did you know what she looked like?" Sway smiled, "Your wallet," and she walked off, while changing into another woman. "How did she do that?" asked Crabbe surprised. "She's a shape shifter," informed Draco, "she can look and sound like anything or anyone she wants. "It's her job!" "Hey boys!" 2 girls straddled Crabbe and Goyle. "Wanna come with us?" The boys nodded and as they left smiled to the guys and said, "We're gonna get laid!" Draco laughed and ordered a round of Bludgers.

After a few rounds and a few more rounds of drinks Draco and the guys were smashed. "Let's play truth or dare," suggested a sober Ron, he wanted some fun. "Ok!" said Draco, "Dare!" Ron smiled, he knew Draco would say that, "Okay Draco. I Dare you to get up on that stage and strip." Draco laughed, "okay," and walked off to the DJ. 5 minutes later "The Sex God" was being introduced. Slowly Draco undid the buttons of his shirt. Revealing his fit, muscle stomach. It even wowed some of the girls. Next he undid his belt and took off his pants to reveal his black boxershorts which had 'Sex God' written in red. Draco threw his unbuttoned shirt towards Ron, who knew that he'd have to stop this now or Charisma would kill him. So Ron stopped Draco and upset most of the people in the club. "What are you doing Ron?" asked Draco as Ron pulled him off the stage. "Getting you home before I get in trouble," said Ron and started dressing Draco.

Ron drove the guys' back to Hogwarts in his dad's new bewitched minivan. He did miss the Ford, but at least the Ford handled better.

Back in Australia...

Charisma awoke in a double bed with pink sheets. "Shit! I gotta get back to Hogwarts! Josh!!!!!!!!!!" Josh ran into her room. "What's wrong?" "I have to be at school...I'm getting married." "Yeah, we'll just apparate. Don't worry so what do you want for breakfast?" Jsoh smiled. "You can't apparate into Hogwarts," informed Charisma. "Then we'll apprate just outside of the boundries." "Oh," Charisma smiled, "A short black would be nice."

An hour later, Josh was dressed in his suit. "You look great Josh," Charisma kissed his cheek. "Thank-you. Are you ready?" "Yeah."

*CRACK!* Charisma and Josh arrived at the front doors of Hogwarts. "Oh I forgot," laughed Charisma, "They were lifting the spell so people could apparate to the wedding." "So what do I do for the next 2 hours?" asked Josh, looking at Hogwarts. "You can either bumb around and find something to do. Or help me get ready," smiled Charisma. "Well I know which one I want to do," Josh winked and Charisma took him inside. It was a madhouse inside, people were running everywhere. On the way to Charisma's room Josh and Charisma bumped into Proffessor Dumbledore,"Oh Charisma, So good to see you." Charisma smiled, "You too. Professor this is a good friend of mine, Josh." Josh smiled and Dumbledore agve him a nod. "Oh anyway...The Staff and I have a present for you...And it can't wait." Dumbledore waved his hand and in 5 minutes all the teachers were gathered where they were. "You really shoyuldn't have," a tear fell down Charisma's cheek. "You deserve it," Professor McGonagall smiled. Dumbledore cleared his throat and Grace came around the corner. "Grace" Charisma ran up to her and hugged her tightly, "You're not a ghost?" Grace laughed, "In a way I am. The teachers brought me here, it's only for a day, but I get my full body and all." Charisma was in tears, "Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you." "Come on, Thank yous later. We need to get ready!" So Grace, Charisma and Josh went upstairs.

"Charisma! It's about time!" Charisma's friend Nicole, from Australia, was sitting in Charisma's room getting ready. "How did you get in?" Charisma was worried. "Oh, the people here are so great," smiled Nicole, "Go have a shower!" Charisma laughed, "I'm going, I'm going!"
