DISCLAIMER: Hmm… Do I own Harry Potter? Don't think so!

The next day, Draco decided that he should show Sonia the holiday house now the he knew she was a witch. He told her where to apparate to and said that he would meet her there. She appeared beside him shortly after.
'So why do you live in this muggle town?' Draco asked her as they stepped inside.
'You know how I told you that dad said "Know your competition"?'
'Yeah.'
'We witches and wizards have always been outnumbered by muggles. The only way to get far in life is to get on with them, for they can give us more than wizards can, to a certain degree anyway.'
'Yeah, I suppose you're right because that is why your fathers name has more power than my fathers does.'
'True,' she stopped, 'wow, I've never really seen a wizard's house before. This is amazing. It looks so small from the outside.'
'Yes, it's quite nice. Nicer than the Malfoy manor.'
'But I thought you said you liked it there?'
'Oh no, I said I liked one of the manors my father owned. The one near Hogwarts… I decorated it myself. Well mostly myself. It's brighter than the Malfoy manor. The Malfoy manor just looks like a big dungeon.'
'Oh, K.'
'Did you want to stay in today?'
'It's Wednesday isn't it?'
'Yeah?'
'Oh, it's just I have dinner with my folks on a Wednesday night.' Sonia sighed, 'can you come?'
'Yeah,' he said with a grin. 'And I can go have dinner with your folks as well if you want. If you want, that is…'
She looked confused for a second then she understood his comment. 'Ha ha Mr. Double Entendre.
Sonia smiled at him as she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into a meaningful kiss, full of thanks.
'Wow, I should go with you to more places,' he said with a grin.
'Yeah… but we have to fill in the rest of the day. Do you want to have fish and chips for lunch?'
'Down on the esplanade? Ooh, I haven't tried Birney's yet.'
'We'll go there then.'
They apparated back to Sonia's place to get the car. Draco had a sinking feeling in his stomach. He still hadn't told her of his bet. And he still had a bet, now that he knew that she was a witch. What should he do? Should he lie to Blaise? No, knowing Blaise he'd have something charmed to tell him whether he had completed the bet or not. What had the terms been again? He had to make an Australian muggle fall in love with him, and then break her heart. Without the use of potions. Was that it? Maybe he should tell Sonia about it and she could help him.

When they arrived at Birney's they hopped out of the car and Draco ordered the food while Sonia sat outside reading a newspaper. He decided to tell her while they were eating. He brought the food out to where she was sitting.
'Hey Sonia…' he said when he was sitting down.
'Yeah…'
'I've gotta tell you something…'
