Chapter four: USAGI!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Monday morning came as well as the results of the Qudditch tryouts. Normally, students and staff alike would have woken up early feeling refreshed and eager to start the day.

But for some people who stayed up late doing their homework, they would've preferred to sleep in an hour more before breakfast starts rather than to be waken up…and none to gently at that.

"USAGI!!!"

The said blonde snapped her eyes opened in shock and stared into bemused brown eyes of her dorm mate Lavender who was sitting on her stomach with her legs across her sides. The brown-haired girl had already changed into her school robes.

Usagi opened her mouth but only managed to breathe out.

"What the?"

Then her mind focused and the blonde soon became too aware of the other girl's weight crushing her body and a surge of energy rushed through her blood long enough for her to struggle slightly and yell out.

"Get off of me!"

Lavender complied and got off of the blonde who then let out a breath and sucked in a fresh batch of air. Lavender gave Usagi a sheepish look and fingered a lock of her hair as she laughed awkwardly.

"Sorry Usagi."

Usagi sat up and massaged her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.

"Geez Lavender…" she muttered quietly, her eyes closed momentarily. She opened them at half-lid and glanced at Lavender, a curious look crossing her features.

"Why did you wake me up anyway?" She asked.

At this, Lavender beamed a smile at the blonde.

"Really Usa. Most people would've been ecstatic that they made their House's Qudditch team." She replied, a teasing tone in her voice.

Usagi's blue eyes snapped wide open and her mouth gaped slightly with surprise.

"You're kidding?"

Lavender shook her head, still smiling.

Usagi's eyes brightened into a sapphire hue. "Really?"

Not waiting for a reply, Usagi shoved the covers off her and sprinted out of the opened doors.

Nudging her fellow dorm mates out of her way, Usagi made it to the stairs and, without a second thought, slid off the banister sideways and hopped down to the carpeted floor of the common room gracefully.

Her eyes caught site of a small group of Gryffindors crowding around the notice board and made her way through them to the front. A slender finger then trailed down to the list of names in a piece of paper before Usagi gave a yelp of joy.

"Yes!!"

The crowd stared as a blonde girl began to shake her hips and waved her arms in the air in glee.

 "Oh yeah, Oh yeah. Whose your daddy? Whose your daddy?" continued Usagi as she twirled around feverishly.

"I guess you made the tryouts then, huh Usagi?" asked Hermione, stifling a giggle as she watched her fellow Gryffindor doing the booty dance.

The blonde flashed Hermione a dazzling smile. "Yup. I did. Isn't it obvious?" she replied.

Usagi then turned to continue her dance, unaware of Hermione shaking her head in half-dismay, half-amusement.

"Nice nightie Usa!" called out Seamus who went passed them. A smirk plastered on his face.

Usagi stopped suddenly in mid-turn to steal a glance down at herself.

"Eep!" she cried as she began to cover herself up. She was too excited that she'd forgotten that she was still wearing her pink semi-transparent nightgown that barely covered her lower thighs.

Usagi blush a hot pink and dashed towards and up the stairs so quickly that all Hermione saw of the blonde was a yellow and pink blur.

"Lavender! You better hide 'cause I'm so going to kill you for not warning me!"

The rest of the Gryffindors in the common room laughed merrily. Hermione herself covered her mouth to stop from giggling too much.

----------------------------------------------

After a series of death threats and apologies, Usagi turned up in the Great Hall for breakfast dressed in the prescribed black robes of the school. Her blonde hair was left down and fell almost to her knee-caps in soft, wet waves. Her sapphire eyes blazed with a silent fire that only few could apprehend.

Most of the Gryffindor girls could only smile at their friend. Usagi was truly beautiful, although she wasn't aware to it.

Usagi was too lost in her thoughts to notice the awed looks sent her way from most of the male student population as well as the withering death glares being thrown at said guys by her twin, Draco.

When she got to her table, Usagi yanked a chair besides Harry and flopped down next to the emerald-eyed boy.

Harry glanced at the chair Usagi was sitting on warily. Thank goodness that Neville had changed seats a little while earlier, Harry feared that the blonde girl would've yanked the chair, occupied or not occupied, and sit on it still instead.

Lavender, who had sat not far from them, cranked her neck to look at Usagi.

"Oh come'on Usa. You're still not sore are you? You know I didn't mean it."

Usagi glared stonily at the other girl. Lavender, in turn, gave the blonde a puppy-dog-eyed-look and tired to look as if she was hurting.

Usagi continued glaring at the other girl unfazed.

Lavender sighed. "Fine. What can I do to make you accept my apologies?" she asked.

Usagi smirked unnaturally as she gave Lavender an intent look. The other girl understood the look and flailed her arms around.

"Oh no." Lavender said firmly. "I am not doing that!"

Usagi gave a 'humphed' look and turned around with her back on Lavender.

Lavender's eye twitched slightly. It didn't take long before she caved in.

"Fine. I'll do it." She said, almost aspirately.

You could almost see Usagi's ears perking up as the blonde wheeled around to flash Lavender a wide smile.

"I just knew you'll see it my way." She said.

Her lush pink lips twisted into a smirk that made her more like the Malfoy she is.

--------------------------------------------------------

"I can't believe that you managed to convince her like that." Draco said as he took a sip of warm chocolate.

Usagi giggled as she grasped her mug of warm chocolate in her hands.

Both Malfoy twins are currently sitting across from each other, snuggled comfortably in large red lounge armchairs. Usagi had made friends with the kitchen elves when she had stumbled upon in the area some nights ago. The blonde was searching for the pathway to the dungeons where the Slytherin common room's located to meet with her brother when she'd bumped into one of the elves; their former house elf Dolby. (sp?)

"More oatmeal cookies Usagi?" asked a familiar squeaky voice besides the blonde girl.

Usagi craned her neck to see that the voice belonged to Dolby, who was looking anxious and frightened. Probably since Draco glared ice-daggers at the ex-house elf.

The short elf quivered under the blonde boy's dark glare. "Err…pardon me. Madam, Sir." He added quickly and gave a bow so low that his nose touched the floor.

Usagi rolled her eyes. "Draco, be nice." She said in a commanding voice. Usagi glanced back at the still bowing elf.

 "It's alright Dolby. You don't have to do that anymore." She said politely.

The blonde girl could visibly see Dolby twitching in hesitation but made no move to bring it up in the conversation. Instead Usagi smiled and lightly touched Dolby's shoulder.

"Really. You don't have to do everything we say anymore. You are no long of our service but Dumbledore's."

A pair of large, doleful eyes jolted up to stare into Usagi's sapphire depths.

"Thank you, Miss Usagi." Dolby said finally.

Giving her a small shy smile, Dolby placed the tray of cookies on the table besides the twins. He bowed low at the blonde girl then at Draco before he turned around and went back to work.

Draco rolled his eyes. "Insufferable elf. Worthless I tell you."

Usagi chuckled good-naturedly. "You're just sore that you have no one at home to order around all of the time anymore."

"By the way, where are those bodyguards of yours?" Usagi looked around her as if expecting Draco's two lackeys to pop up out of nowhere.

"I haven't seen them since the time I got sorted."

Draco sighed in dismay. "I needed some time to myself so I merely went ahead of them."

Usagi raised an eyebrow. "Meaning you ditched them."

Draco smirked. "Nothing gets by you now, does it?"

Usagi threw her cushion playfully at the blonde boy. "Oh hush up, D-chan."

The said teen merely blew her a raspberry, quite uncharacteristic for the stoic, emotionless, cold teen.

Usagi merely laughed at her brother's antics.  Draco frowned a bit but then laughed along with her.

"So when will Lavender do her thing?" asked Draco after their laughter subsided.

Usagi shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't know." She admitted. "But I'm guessing sometime this week."

She winked. "After all, I did make her swear an oath to it."

Draco smirked and silently drank his mug of chocolate.

Much to Usagi's surprise, Draco then settled his mug on the table and looked at her square in the eyes.

"Usa…I don't want you to hang around with those Gryffindors anymore, especially that Potter and his Muggle-loving friends."

The look on Draco's face was serious and Usagi knew then that her brother wasn't joking around. But instead of being complying, Usagi merely frowned at the other blonde.

"D-chan. I thought we already talked about this…" She started but Draco cut her off.

"I know, I know." He said dissuasively. "But I don't like the way Potter's looking at you recently."

Not expecting this comment to come from her own brother, Usagi blushed prettily. She was rather flattered to find out that one of the cutest guys she'd ever seen had been staring at her…but that doesn't mean that she isn't a bit pissed about it.

Harry had been staring at her? Oh wait 'till she gets her hands on his neck…err!

Usagi made a mental motion of her hands grasping the jet-black-haired teen's neck.

When the girl didn't respond, Draco took this as a sign for him to continue.

"Usa-chan. I love you and all and as your older brother, I believe that this is for your own good…"

Usagi waved off Draco with a flick of her hand. "You're only older than me by four minutes."

Draco smirked. "This means that I'm four minutes ahead of you so that makes me the older sibling."

Usagi sighed as she shook her head in dismay. Draco will always be Draco and she wouldn't have him any other way.

"I can choose who I want to be friends with or not, Draco." She muttered finally.

"But, if it makes you happy. I won't hang so much around Harry anymore if that's what irking you lately."

She continued. "However, he is still my friend and I won't have this nonsense about House rivalry and the likes. Am I clear?"

Draco frowned at this. Truthfully, he would rather have Usagi agree to stop seeing Potter altogether and demand a transfer to Slytherin instead but he knew that he couldn't force his little sister to do anything she doesn't want to do.

"Fine." He said finally.

Usagi's bright smile returned and the blonde elbowed Draco on the ribs playfully.

"Now, what is this I heard about you and Pansy Parkinson?" She asked innocently.

She laughed heartily when Draco's pale face turned an angry red. One could almost see the stream coming out of the blonde boy's ears.

Draco must really loathe the girl to have this kind of reaction.

"Usagi!!!"

To be continued

Sapphire: Finally! I managed to finish it! It's not as good as I hoped it would be…but good nevertheless.

Anyway, what did Usagi made Lavender agree to? Well…it's a secret! Hohoho! But I do accept suggestions; perhaps they're even better than mine's… Also, do you guys want a little more H/U action? Cause I sure do! Tune in next chapter and perhaps you'll get your wish. Bwahaha!
