A Hogsmeade Serenade
"Who called you in here Malfoy? This is a private conversation."
Ashley snarled a the young Slytherin. The female blonde eyes began to glow. "Sorry Kitty. That only works on mortals, cowardly relatives( The Raven haired girl glanced over to the boy) not on me. Lissette's eyes went back to normal.
"A fellow vampire, Eddy why didn't you tell me there was another here at Hogwarts?" The Gryffindor rolled her eyes.
"Don't talk about me like I'm not here Malfoy, besides you should show some respect, I am your superior." Draco was dumbfounded, he didn't want to be caught between the two females.
"Superior? You? Don't make me laugh. I'm a MALFOY." Night's eyes turned completely black. Her fangs grew as did her nails.
" You may be a Malfoy, but I am a FULL born vampire, know your place HALF- LING." The boy had had enough, it was time to put a end to this before someone lost their life.
"Ash, put those away. Lissette what do you need?" His cousin continued to glare at Ashley.
"Am I on the team, or did the howler sweet uncle Lucius sent not suffice?" The boy sighed exasperated and nodded.
"Good then I'll be off. I'll finish with you later NIGHT!" The vampire smiled mischievously.
"Any time Half-ling, any time." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Okay boys and girls, what are we doing this weekend?" Niko approached the seven Gryffindors that sat quietly in the library.
"Sshh! Mr. Dans les ombres, I'm quite sure you of all people know to keep quiet in the library. Not everyone is a prefect!" Madame Pince reprimanded the raven claw as the group giggled and snickered.
"Yes Madame Pince." He bowed his head down as she walked away in a huff.
"Yes Madame Pince" Ashley repeated mockingly as her boyfriend gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Well what re the plans? Christmas shopping in Hogsmeade? A party before holiday?" the vampire smiled.
"We can give Movie night another go?" Hermione cocked an eyebrow as the whole group in unison responded with a resounding "NO!" To which the received a scowl from Madame Pince.

Though left extremely confused by the stir of emotion that night had caused, Ginny stood her ground. Even before Draco could get any thing out she had ran away. She didn't trust him any more, correction, she didn't trust her self alone with him any more. The red head ran, but managed to hear him say three little words. 'Come what may' they were the same three words she her mind kept repeating along with 'I will love you, 'til my dying day.' Nikolas voice brought the girl back to reality.
"So I guess Christmas shopping in Hogsmeade it is( he gave his girlfriend a quick kiss ) Got to head to class. Adios." And he left. The red head glanced over to Harry who quickly returned his eyes to the book in front of him. She smiled as she thought to her self This is going to be one interesting Christmas.

'And I've got nothing to say, I can't believe I didn't fall right down on my face I was confused Looking every where only to find that it's not the way I had imagined it all in my mind. So what am I What do I have but negativity , cause I can't justify the way everyone is looking at me Nothing to lose Nothing to gain , hallow and alone, and the fault is my own and the fault is my own.
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real I wanna let go of the pain I felt so long (Erase all the pain 'til it's gone) I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I'm close to something real I want to find something I've wanted all along Some where I belong.'
The song described exactly how he felt, yes exactly, probably the reason why he had it booming through out the whole chamber. That was why Draco wasn't able to hear who had entered, nor who had made the song stop playing until he looked up from his bed.
"Who is the girl who actually has my dear sun tan lacking cousin pining? I would surely like to congratulate her on achieving that impossible feet." Lissette taunted from the door way, behind her was Pansy who was in a trance like state.
" I guess you won't be needing a whore to entertain you tonight. (she looked over her shoulder) Parkinson, you can go you are not needed tonight. (She fully stepped into dimly lit chamber.) So, why are you so melancholy Eddy? The girl won't put out? No that can't be it, you would only find another bimbo. She's doesn't want you? No you would have moved on instead of going to Night for help, that is why you're going to Night, right? So that only leaves...................You actually have feelings for the wench! Oh this is so monumental."
The male blonde stood and grabbed his cloak. Just when he was about to walk out the door, with one swift movement his cousin stood in the way blocking the exit.
"And where do you think you're going? You, Eddy will still there and tell me everything thing, starting with her name." He scoffed, there was no way in hell he was actually going to do that.
"Leave me alone Lissette, I'm sure there is some poor fool you can toy with, or shag. Just go, blink, disapperate , what ever it is you vampires do, just leave." Her eyes began to glow.
" I'm not in the mood for a spot of fighting to day , so if you could just please LEAVE ME ALONE!." To his surprise she moved aside. He took the opportunity and walked away.
" You are free this time cousin, but you will answer me during holiday, oh you will definitely answer me during holiday."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~
He stomped through the corridors looking like crap and had the attitude to match. He had no where to go, there wasn't any one he could talk to, well anyone that would talk back to him that is. She was Draco's only and last resort, unfortunately.
"Oi, Night! Where are you off to?" He called out to Ashley who was looking around the Great Hall. She was the last of the group that was to go into Hogsmeade. She looked at the approaching boy, whom looked desperate. She shook her head smiling.
"Hogsmeade, c'mon" she gestured him to follow and the two exited the castle.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~
They wandered through the village, discussing school, Ginny, and movies. It was mostly Ashley talking the Slytherin's ear off giving him a lesson on American Muggle cinema when they ran into one of the many people that couldn't see them together, Emma.
"Ash............um what are you doing with Malfoy?" The vampire searched for answer and said the first thing that came to mind.
"He's my bitch." To which both Emma and the Slytherin gave her an awkward look.
" Well, not exactly my bitch, but more like a significant acquaintance." She chuckled nervously as her dorm mate gave her a suspicious once over. The boy needed to shoo the Gryffindor away and so threatened her.
"Soothington, you will say nothing to no one of you seeing me and Night together, understand, or I will make a great deal of trouble for your father, he works in St. Mungos does he not? (the girl began to look worried) Good its seems we have an arrangement, now if you will excuse us." And Ashley and Draco walked away, upon seeing they were a good feet away, the vampire gave him what she thought was a light punch.
"What was that for?" The blonde rubbed his arm. The Gyrffindor quirked an eyebrow and a look that read What-do-you-think- it's-for. They continued to walk through the village until Draco grabbed the girls arm. Something caught his eye. Inside the shop was the two of them. Harry and Ginny hugging and kissing. Ashley winced and glanced over to the wide eyed boy who's gaze didn't falter. The look of hurt and love clearly displayed on his pale features. Her concentration was broken when she felt some one wrap their arms around her waist.
"Boo! (It was Nikolas who gave her a kiss on the cheek and noticed the presence of the Slytherin) Umm baby what are you doing with this wanker?" Ashley turned to face her boyfriend.
" Niko, play nice, he's not a complete prat, honest, I use to think he was a bit of a daisy, or even a .............but that not the point, can't you see how hurt he looks? He looks like a lost puppy. Please don't tell anyone you saw us together, it would ruin everything. You promise?" The Ravenclaw gave her a questionable look but agreed.
"So Malfoy isn't it? how estas man?" Draco wasn't paying attention, his eyes were still glued to the red head inside the shop.
"Oye! Malfoy! Did the blonde seep into his brain?" Ashley shook him after he failed to answer her boyfriend the second time. Worried she asked him if he was fine. He blinked, coming out of his trance, he spoke.
"I want to talk to her Night, can you make that happen?" The vampire thought for a moment and remembered a spell the Weasley twins had used on her the pervious summer. A sly smile played on her lips.
"Malfoy, how are your vocals feeling?" Before the boy could answer she pointed her wand to him and uttered "Sonorus Cantus 'Ready to fall'"
Inside Honeydukes...........................
"Harry.............umm do you think you could let me go? I want to look around." but the boy didn't listen and held her tighter while he continued to kiss the back of her neck. The moment was broken seconds later though, when a male singing voice filled the shop.
" I get a feeling I can't explain, whenever your eyes meet mine. My heart spins in circles and I lose all space and time. And no that we're standing face to face, something tells me it's gonna be okay. And I'm ready to fall in love tonight ready to hold my heart open wide. I can't promise forever, but baby I'll try. Yes I'm ready to fall in love tonight." Both Gryffindor's blinked, confused by the sight, as did the other customers and the shop owner. It was none other then Draco Malfoy standing in the door way singing an American muggle pop song.
The blonde grabbed his throat, he didn't know what was happening. He mental cursed the vampire, whom responded in the same manner, indignantly.
"I know you've been watching, choosing your moment, but I've been dreaming of that day. No one before you has gotten to me this way. And now that we're standing face to face, there's something I need to say. And I'm ready to fall in love tonight, ready to hold my heart open wide. I can't promise forever but baby I'll try. Yes I'm ready to fall in love tonight."
Harry's gaze went from the Slytherin to his girlfriend whose eyes were watering and not moving from the singing boy. He had to get the two away from each other. He hadn't waited and fought this long to get her just to lose her again.
"Come on Ginny, Let's go. This way." He grabbed her arm and pulled her to the exit of the shop. He pushed the blonde out of the way and dragged the girl away.
"Yes I'm ready to fall in love tonight."
The vampire threw a fit, they were so close, so close............................................................
"Who called you in here Malfoy? This is a private conversation."
