A/N: Hiya people, I'm in a really good mood today because I went to a Red
Hot Chili Peppers gig last night, which was amazing (Anthony kedis – what a
god!!) So I still got a bit of a buzz from that. Anyway here's chapter 3.
Chapter 3
The next few weeks passed relatively quietly in general, insults were traded, points deducted – the usual, nothing drastic though. They were now into October, and planing the Halloween ball. The theme chosen was fairy- tale, and have muggle music. The plans were decided with a minimum of fuss and arguments, the only problem seemed to be the continuing hatred between the Slytherin and Gryffindor prefects; the incessant bickering and constant glares were becoming more noticeable to the others. It became a joke to the heads and the other prefects that Hermione and Draco secretly fancied each other or had permanent lover's tiffs. Of course neither Draco nor Hermione knew about this.
"Hi guys" Jordan said as he and Jenna walked into the prefect's common room.
"Are the lovebirds here?" Jenna asked with a hint of amusement in her voice.
"No, don't know where they are" Padma answered.
They chatted for a while, then Ernie piped up "I've been thinking, do you think it's a good idea from them to be going to the ball together?"
"Yeah" Padma replied and looked at Ernie "maybe we should swap"
"God no" Jordan almost shouted as the others looked at him. "It would be good for them...and provide amusement for us" he added with a cheeky grin.
"Okay" Ernie replied uncertainly.
At that moment they heard the people in question approach
"Out of the way mudblood" Draco growled
"Sod off ferret, I was here first" Hermione replied angrily
"Don't you dare speak to me like that, I'm a pureblood you piece of filth" came the retort
"I'll speak to you however I want asshole" she countered.
The other four people inside the common room stared at the painting waiting to see what would happen next or if it would have to be broken up.
"Their back" Padma sighed
"And on top form by the sounds of it" Ernie added, whilst the head observed the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff prefects commentating on their fellow classmates. Back outside the argument was still going strong ten minutes later
"I'm warning you" Draco seethed as his eyes narrowed into slits "shut the hell up"
"Why Malfoy, can't take it" Hermione shot "what are you going to do, run to daddy" she continued with an equally vicious glare
"You have no idea who you're dealing with, MUDBLOOD"
"Neither do you FERRET"
At this point inside the common room Jenna had become quite anxious and decided to stop them before they did something stupid
"Okay, enough" she demanded
Draco and Hermione continued to glare at each other until Draco huffed and barged Hermione out of the way and stalked into the common room. Hermione clenched her fists and took a deep breath, she shook her head and Jenna asked her if she was ok.
"Yes, I'm fine and sorry about that" Hermione replied before walking rather quickly to her room.
