Chapter 9: Christmas
A couple days after the Christmas Ball came Christmas! And all over Hogwarts, it did look like Christmas.
(AN: Come on everyone! Sing along! "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go. Take a.." Sorry. Had to do that. *clears throat* Er. now on with the story!!!)
Hermione woke up that wonderful morning with a smile. She quickly changed and went to the Great Hall for breakfast.
"Happy Christmas, Hermione!" her friends greeted her when she walked over to them.
"Happy Christmas!" Hermione sat down next to Ron. As they talked happily, Hermione looked at the Slytherin table, but so that nobody would noticed. When she looked she saw Draco staring right back at her. He smiled and she smiled back.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
After breakfast Hermione caught up with Draco.
"Hi," Hermione said.
"Hey. Merry Christmas," Draco said then gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"Merry Christmas to you too. So do you have anything for me?"
Draco laughed at Hermione's hopeful face. "Don't look so hopeful because I didn't get you anything. Sorry."
Hermione threw a glare at him. "Draco Malfoy so are the meanest person on the face of the earth!"
"And you figured that out right now?"
Hermione slapped Draco's shoulder and started to walk away from Draco. Draco chased after her.
"Oh come on, Mione. I'm just teasing you. Can't you take a joke? I swear Muggle borne don't have any humor." This statement only made Hermione walk faster. Then Draco grabbed Hermione's arm. She turned around and looked at him. "Okay, I'm sorry, Mione. Really I am."
Hermione raised an eyebrow. "Really?"
"Yeah. And I did buy you a gift. I'm not completely heartless." Draco then pulled out a small black velvet box and handed it to Hermione.
"What's this?"
"Open it and find out, silly," Draco laughed. Hermione opened it and gasped. Inside was a gold ring with a ruby in the middle with diamonds on either side of it.
"Oh, Draco, this is."
"It's not much. I saw it and thought of you. Do you like it?"
Hermione smiled and gave Draco a huge hug. "I love it! Thank you so much!"
Draco smiles and kisses the top of her head. "Anything for you." They break apart and smile at each other. "So is there anything for me?"
"Yes but I left it in my dorm. I'll give it to you later, okay?"
"All right." Hermione and Draco were about to leave when Dumbledore called them.
"Miss Granger, Mister Malfoy, may I speak to you two for a moment?" Dumbledore asked.
"O-of course, Professor," Hermione said, a little nervous. "Is everything all right, Professor?"
"Hmm? Oh, yes, of course. No need to look nervous, Miss Granger," Dumbledore said with a little laugh.
"So what did you want to talk to us about, Professor?" Draco asked.
"Well the other professors and I have been talking about give you two a little something, since you're both Head Boy and Girl. We thought you needed more privileges and rewards besides getting the title of Head Boy and Girl." Dumbledore said.
Draco and Hermione looked at each other in confusion but nodded and Dumbledore continued.
"So we thought about it and came up with something you both will use and so will the future Head Boy and Girl. Now if you'll both follow me, I'll show it to you. Think of it as a Christmas gift for the both of you from the professors and I."
Dumbledore started walking followed by a very confused Hermione and Draco. So they walked and walked until they stopped in front of a picture of an old English couple, talking a walk in the park. The woman was wearing a soft pink dress holding a parasol while she used her other are to hold a man in a brown suit's arm.
"Professor, why did we stop here?" Hermione asked.
"Hello, dears," the woman in the picture said to Draco and Hermione, who were startled. "My name is Mary and this is my husband, John. Welcome to your new dorms."
Draco and Hermione said nothing. They were in total shock. New dorms?! They couldn't believe it.
"Your password is 'aurora'. You may move tomorrow. However, you may take a look inside. Hope you enjoy," Dumbledore addressed the shocked teenagers.
"Thank you Professor!" Hermione exclaimed. Dumbledore smiled and walked off. "Can you believe it, Draco?! We have our own dorms!"
Draco just smiled and gave Hermione a huge hug. "Shall we take a look?"
"Of course!"
"Wait a minute dears," Mary said. "May we have your names, please?"
"Oh, of course," Hermione said. "My name is Hermione Granger and this is Draco Malfoy."
"Pleasure to meet you. Well sorry to keep you waiting." The portrait opened to reveal a small, blue common room. Very cozy, yet elegant. There was a fireplace, sofas, tables and two doors, which lead to their rooms.
"Wow," Draco said. "This is amazing." Then he looked up and smiled. Then he looked at Hermione with a smirk.
"What?"
"Look up," Draco said coolly. Slowly she looked up. There, right above them was some mistletoe. "Well you know the tradition."
Hermione smiled then leaned in to give Draco a kiss. "Merry Christmas."
"Merry Christmas, Mione."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hi Ron. Merry Christmas," Lavender said when she met up with him in the common room. She smiled and gave him a kiss.
"Merry Christmas," Ron replied. "I have a gift for you." Ron then handed her a long, flat box. "Oh, Ron, you shouldn't have!" Lavender opened the box to reveal a charm bracelet. "Ron I love it! Thank you!" She then gave Ron a bone-crushing hug.
"Lavender, I- can't- breathe!" Lavender let go of him.
"I have something for you, now." Lavender handed him a box, which Ron opened quickly. Inside was a book. It was a book with all the latest Quidditch strategies.
"Wow! This is amazing! Thank you so much!" Ron then gave Lavender a kiss.
"There's more in the box." Ron looked and pulled out some mistletoe. He smiled, held it over their heads and kissed Lavender.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hi Ginny," Harry said.
"Hey Harry. What's up?" Ginny asked since he had his hands behind his back.
"Here." Harry handed her a card. "It's not much but.."
Ginny opened the card and read it. It read:
"Dear Ginny,
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. And I hope you get wonderful gifts. Will you be my girlfriend?
Love, Harry"
Tears filled Ginny's eyes when she finished reading. Harry then sighed. "I'm sorry, Ginny. Look, you can just forget I said that."
"Harry, it's OK. I'm just.." Ginny then took his face in her hands and brushed her lips against his. "I'll be your girlfriend."
"Y-y-you will?" Harry said in shock.
Ginny nodded and kissed Harry again.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Here you go," Hermione said to Draco when they went walking around the lake that afternoon.
"Thank you." Draco opened the box Hermione gave. Inside was a kind of jersey shirt with "Malfoy" at the top. "Wow.."
"Well it's just a little something. I mean what am I supposed to give the guy that basically has everything?"
"Hey, I don't have everything! I really like it. Thank you." Draco gave Hermione a kiss on the cheek.
"Your welcome. Well we should be heading back. I need to pack my stuff so we can move into our dorms tomorrow."
"OK. I guess I'll see you tomorrow."
"Yeah. Bye."
"Bye."
