Chapter 4: Changes
Ginny sat in The Room of Requirement. She sat on a table, swinging her legs, idly, as she waited for three people. The first person to arrive was Cho Chang.
"Hey Ginny! Blimey, this place brings back so any memories," she said. She was, of course, referring to Dumbledore's Army. Ginny smiled and turned to see Blaise Zabini walk in.
"I still don't know why I agreed to come here," the young woman said.
Ginny rolled her eyes in exasperation. "It's for Draco," she explained.
"What about Malfoy?" came the voice belonging to none other than Harry Potter, who had just arrived.
"This is about Draco and Hermione. To make the long story short, Draco and Hermione fell in love while the seventh years were gone," she explained. Blaise snorted, Harry frowned, and Cho looked excited.
Ginny studied the three people. She had chosen Blaise to come because almost every guy in the entire school wanted Blaise. Blaise also knew a lot about makeovers.
Cho Chang was the new DADA teacher. Cho could set up ways for Hermione and Draco to get together without Hermione knowing. Cho knew a lot about all of the secluded area's in Hogwarts. She would be able to keep them out of trouble if they were caught.
Harry had once gone out with Hermione, so he knew what Hermione liked. Actually, Harry was only there for moral support.
Ginny took a deep breath. "Blaise, I'll need your help in giving Hermione a makeover. I've already got her started on moisturizers and usiing specific conditioners. She's a size nine in jeans and she wears a large in shirts. She's a medium in robes," she explained.
Blaise nodded. "Okay, but she'd better not complain when I'm done with her," she drawled.
Ginny sighed irritably. "She won't."
Ginny turned to Cho Chang. "Cho, you know about every romantic area in Hogwarts. You'll be able to give Draco the dirt about where to take Hermione. Also, you can give them detentions and stuff like that so that they have to end up spending time together," she explained.
Cho grinned and gave Ginny two thumbs up. Cho must have been high on sugar. She was way too excited. Ginny smiled and turned to Harry.
"Harry, you're going to help me plan everything. Make Malfoy irresistible to Hermione," she explained. Though, she didn't voice that the reason she had clued Harry in was because this would give her a chance to spend time with him. Ginny grinned inwardly.
"Okay. This is what we're gonna do."
~*~
Hermione sat in a spinny chair, holding her breath as she waited to see how her hair looked. Blaise flicked her wand, and it immediately stopped acting like a hair dryer. Blaise sighed through her nose.
"All done. You can look now," Blaise said in a toneless voice.
Hermione inhaled sharply once he looked at her reflection. Her once burgundy highlights were now a caramel brown. The rest of her hair had been colored a dark chocolate brown. Her hair was cut in purposely-choppy layers. Her hair cascaded an inch past her shoulder.
Blaise turned around. "Weasley!" she yelled.
Ginny walked in. "What?"
"Help me modify her wardrobe! We're changing it for the rest of the year," Blaise explained.
Ginny nodded and the two disappeared into Hermione's room without permission.
~*~
Ginny opened the wardrobe and shook her head disappointedly. "How 'bout some leather?" Ginny asked and peered over her shoulder at Blaise, who was sitting on Hermione's bed.
Blaise nodded her consent. "Skirts are a must," Blaise added.
"Tube tops, halter tops, jean jackets," Ginny added.
It was well over an hour before the two finished 'modifying' Hermione's wardrobe.
Blaise leaned back against a pillow. "You're going to have to spend the night with Granger," Blaise said without looking at Ginny.
Ginny popped a biscuit (A/N: Cookie) into her mouth and sent Blaise a confused look.
Blaise rolled her eyes. "She's going to mess up on her outfits. You have to help her," she said.
Ginny swallowed and smiled. "Okay. It's a good thing this is a weekend. We have a Hogsmeade trip tomorrow," Ginny said as she nibbled on another biscuit.
"So what's the deal with you and Potter?" Blaise asked before hesitantly eating a piece of her Licorice Wand.
Ginny felt her cheeks begin to burn. "Nothing," she said all too quickly.
Blaise arched one of her eyebrows in disbelief.
"Oh please. I've seen you ogling at Potter!" Blaise's suspicions were only confirmed when Ginny's face turned scarlet. "Do you want his attention?" Blaise asked.
Ginny bit her bottom lip nervously. "Doesn't every girl?"
Blaise threw away her candy wrappers and sat back down. "Tell you what. Why don't you hang around with me for a while. I'll find some clothes for you, and Harry will be begging for you," Blaise suggested. "Oh, and don't answer my questions with questions," Blaise added.
Ginny shifted uneasily. "I don't know, Blaise," Ginny whispered uncertainly.
Blaise, once again, rolled her eyes. "You'd better take your chance now before I change my mind."
Ginny finally agreed, and the two separated a bit later so that Ginny could talk to Hermione. Harry was going to meet up with Draco a few hours before everyone left for Hogsmeade. Ginny fell asleep on the floor that night. She slept in Hermione's room so that Hermione would look perfect for what the group had planned for tomorrow. Whether Hermione liked it or not. (The former was preferred.)
