Miss Mills – Thanks I'll do my best.
Last Time: Hermione told Harry, Ron and Ginny about her friendship with Draco, Ron was a little confused by it, Harry was accepting it because Hermione was their friend. Draco showed Hermione his secret mini-library and told her the password so she could get in anytime she wants.
When Draco heard Harry shut up in the middle of his sentence he looked up and saw Hermione coming from the stairs. She walked towards him, and smiled. When she was next to him he whispered so she alone could hear, 'Ginny said you looked like a princess, but she was wrong' Hermione looked a little confused and hurt but smiled when he resumed his sentence 'You look more like a goddess to me'
Ch 09 The End Of Holiday Party
When Hermione followed the girls down the stairs a little bit behind she saw Ginny stopping with Draco to tell him something before she turned to Harry, they talked for a moment, Draco was looking around him, and not towards the stairs anymore. When she heard Harry stop in the middle of his sentence, Draco's eyes rested on her.
She smiled and walked down the stairs in her nice purple dress with silver margins till she was at his side. 'Ginny said you looked like a princess, but she was wrong' when she heard him say those words she felt a pin stabbing through her heart, what the hell did he just say, did she look ugly?
'You look more like a goddess to me' she gasped unheard and the pin was immediately withdraw and instead she now felt her heart beat faster. She looked in his eyes and smiled. He smiled back at her and offered his arm. 'So would this goddess accept my arm, and let me accompany her to the Great Hall for dinner?'
'It would be an honour' she replied while taking his arm. Ginny grinned at the small conversation Hermione and Draco had, Harry was staring at them in disbelieve and Ron, well Ron had his attention on his date... he hadn't even see the conversation between the two. Ginny poked Harry in the ribs and smiled at him.
Harry smiled at her, he was a little confused of the relationship between his best friend and his enemy, but he wanted Hermione to be happy so he smiled.
When Hermione and Draco walked into the Great Hall they saw that the 4 tables were replaced with hundreds of smaller ones. Half of them were already filled with couples. Draco was a little annoyed that he had to sit with potter and the weasel, but he was happy that his friend Blaise had informed him he would keep him company with his date. Blaise had asked Serena a 6th year Slytherin to accompany him.
Draco and Hermione sat down at a table, Ginny sat next to Hermione, next to Ginny was Harry, and next to Harry were Ron and his date Kelly. Blaise was sitting next to Draco with Serena. While Draco and Hermione talked a little, the other Gryffindors glared at the Slytherins, and they glared back. If it weren't for their friends they would have attacked each other in an instant.
When everyone had arrived food appeared on their tables, and they began to eat. At Hermione and Draco's table silence ruled, until Hermione spoke up. 'Serena your dress is fabulous, did you have it made for you?' Hermione pushed the right button with Serena, the fashion button Ginny noticed it and hopped in on Hermione's idea 'yeah it's a really nice dress'
Serena smiled for the first time that evening 'Well thanks, yeah it was made for me, it's a unique piece, I had to go trough different measuring moments, so the dress would fit me perfectly' Ginny nodded 'that must have been a little boring' hermione nodded in agreement. 'Yeah well, let's just say the designer was rather hot.
Blaise chocked in his piece of meat and Ginny started to giggle at this, even Kelly who hadn't said a thing chuckled in amusement. Draco's face was covered with an amusement smirk. Serena turned to her date 'Ow Blaise, get a hold on yourself I was just joking' she smiled at him.
Hermione sighed in relieve the ice was broken, conversations covered the table now... Ginny, Kelly and Serena were talking about fashion, while the boys talked about their next quidditch match. Draco and Hermione looked at each other and smiled. Their friendship had created other friendships between Slytherin and Gryffindor.
Dumbledore watched the table from his own table. He smiled, it was the only table were Gryffindors were seated with Slytherins at their own choice. When everyone was finished with their dinner he stood up and waved his arms to get everybody quiet.
'Dear students, welcome at the first end of holiday party, I want to congratulate the Head Boy, and ofcourse the Head Girl for their fabulous work on the party, we will be please to announce the performers for tonight. First up is a Muggle artist named Michelle Branch' gasps of amazement were heard of students who grew up in the muggle world of astonishment for Michelle Branch, and Dumbledore continued, 'next is a wizard-band named "Sweet and Magical" and the last performer will be DJ Tiësto to end the night for everyone except 6th and 7th years at 2 o'clock, 6th and 7th years will have the privilege to stay till 4, not a minute later, is that understood?'
The whole student body said yes. 'Well then, let the party begin' he waved with his arms and the small tables disappeared making room for a big dance- floor, surrounded with small little cocktail-tables at the sides. 'Can I please ask Miss Granger, and Mister Malfoy to come closer, and everyone else to step to the side?' Dumbledore asked and everyone went to the side while Hermione and Draco walked up to him.
'The Head Boy and Head Girl will now open the Party with an openingsdance' Dumbledore said while waving them to the dance-floor. The curtains before the podium opened to reveal Michelle Branch who started her song while Draco bowed for Hermione and took her in his arms and started to dance.
I've been driving for an hour, just talking to the rain
You say I've been driving you crazy, and it's keeping you away
So just give me one good reason, tell me why I should stay?
'Cause I don't wanna waist another moment, with saying things we never meant to say
Hermione felt Draco's arms around her waist, she looked up at him and looked into his eyes.
And I take it just a little bit
I hold my breath and count to ten
I've been waiting for a chance to let you in
Their eyes didn't leave the other one's for a moment. Hermione heard the words of the song go through her entire body. She felt she was connected to the song, she wanted to let Draco in to...
If i just breathe
and feel the space between
i know everything is allright
Breathe every little face of me you'll see
everything is allright
If i just breathe
Hermione took a long breath, before laying her head on his shoulder, and getting closer to him.
Well it's all so overrated
and not saying how you feel
So you end up watching chances fade and wondering whats real
Ginny watched her friend and smiled, they were so cute together, Harry arms were wrapped around her own waist, and she pulled him towards the dance- floor and wrapped her arms around Harry.
And i gave it just a little time
I wonder if you realise
I've been waiting till i see it in your eyes
Draco looked at Hermione who was wrapped in his arms, dancing very closely to him. He smiled at her, and she smiled back, her head resting on his shoulder.
If i just breathe
and feel the space between
i know everything is allright
Breathe every little face of me you'll see everything is allright
if i just breathe, breathe
so i whisper in the dark hoping you hear me
do you hear me?
Couples were now surrounding the two. Draco felt Hermione's body against him and he was happy... he felt at peace now.
if i just breathe
and feel the space between
i know everything is allright
Breathe every little face of me you'll see
everything is allright
Breathe
everything is allright if i just breathe, breathe
Hermione looked up at Draco, she knew the song was almost finished, they looked at each other, Draco lowered his head and kissed her sweet.
I've been driving for an hour just talking to the rain
Ginny smiled at the kissing couple and poked Harry in the side. Harry looked up and saw Hermione kissing Draco, he wanted to go tear them apart but Ginny stopped him. 'See how happy's she looks!' Harry looked closer and saw a smile on Hermione's lips while kissing Draco, and he calmed down.
Draco looked into Hermione's eyes, the girl he had just kissed, and smiled. Hermione smiled back and lay her head back against his shoulder and they continued to dance at the number's Michelle Branch was singing.
Ron who was dancing with Kelly hadn't noticed the kiss his best friend and his enemy had shared. And Ginny was happy for that, Kelly wouldn't have stopped him if he would have grabbed his wand to hex Draco, she wasn't used to the fiery temper Ron had.
Draco and Hermione had dance through-out every single song of Michelle Branch together, they didn't leave the dance-floor for snacks and drinks like the others did... they just stayed in each others arms. When "Sweet and Magical" came on stage the rhythm was a little faster and Blaise and Serena walked up to them and Blaise poked lightly on Draco's shoulder 'Can I cut in?' he asked and Draco nodded.
Hermione was now facing Blaise, Draco was dancing with Serena. She didn't dance close like with Draco of course, they were dancing on friendly- distance. Blaise spoke up, 'I want you to know Granger' Hermione interrupted him 'Hermione please' blaise nodded 'Hermione, I'm Draco's best friend... I thought you thought Slytherin's were all evil, but you proved to me tonight, you don't judge people by what house they're in'
Hermione nodded 'And I realise now that you're right, I've never associated with anyone other then a Slytherin in all my six previous years here at Hogwarts. I saw you changed Draco, you didn't change Draco alone... you've changed some Slytherin's too... They've realised not everything is about blood... And I want to thank you Hermione'
Hermione blushed had she really done that? She knew he was right ... 'Thanks Blaise...' they hugged for a second, a little awkward and the song was finished. They said they're goodbye's as Draco and Serena came back to them.
'so what did you 2 talk about?' Draco asked while putting his arms around her waist again. 'The fact that I've changed some minds about blood' she smiled as Draco looked a little confused 'Our relationship means something to some of your house-mates. They realise not everything is about purebloods and halfbloods...' he nodded understandably and turned back to the dancing....
In the corner of the room a blond girl looked like she was going to kill everybody in the room. Her pureblood was burning in her body. This couldn't be happening, first Draco who kissed a filthy mudblood, and the Zabini, who hugged the girl like they were friends!!! This couldn't be...
She walked out of the room towards the Owlery. 'Accio writing supplies' she muttered and her supplies came to her, she began writing a letter.
'Dear Lucius,
I'm very pleased to hear you've escaped from Azkaban prison, while no one has even noticed it yet, I'm pleased to hear the Dementors have chosen our side... The light side hasn't even realised there is a new dark lord rising. But this letter isn't for pleasing you sir... I have some bad news about your son, as you servant I feel obliged to say that your son has fallen in love with a mudblood.
This isn't some kind of sick joke, I just saw them at the End of Holiday Party doing the openings-dance together, and at the end of the song they kissed... they haven't left each others side since, and it's now 3 hours later... They separated for e moment because Blaise Zabini asked a dance with the mudblood.
As your servant I will do everything you ask me to do about this little problem...'
She signed the letter with her name, and she called for an owl. She put the letter in an envelope. And wrote in curly letters on it
'From Pansy Parkinson, to My Lord Lucius Malfoy'
She handed it to the owl and whispered 'Bring this to Lucius immediately....'
