GML: Hehehehehehehe........ Read!
The halls of Hogwarts, school of Witchcraft and Wizardry are completely vacant, as all students and teachers are in bed. Well, almost all.
"Harry! We really shouldn't be out here! It's after curfew, if we get caught we'll be in trouble for sure!"
Harry Potter turned to look at one of his best friends, Hermione Granger. "Shhh..." He stopps walking, "Listen."
Hermione stops standing close to him. Footsteps. Her eyes widen in horror.
"Do you smell something my sweet? Some students out of bed perhaps?"
Hermione gasped, "Filtch! He's too close! We'll be caught for sure!"
"Shit! Run!" Harry grabs her arm and darts down the hallway. They hear Filtch's footsteps echoing as he chases after the sound of their footsteps bouncing off the walls.
They turn a corner to find themselves at a fork in the hallways. As they pass a tapestry hanging from the wall, a pair of hands reach out and grab Harry, pulling him into a cubby hole behind said tapestry. Harry catches Hermione's arm and pulls her in as well.
As soon as she sees that it's Malfoy, she almost shouts. Harry quickly covers her mouth to stop the scream.
"Do something, Dra. He was right behind us!" Harry whispers holding onto Hermione. Her eyes widen in shock.
"Relax, i've just the thing." Draco points his wand down a hallway muttering "Footosis Dublio!"
Suddenly, what sounds like two sets of footsteps are heard running down the hall to their left. Filch runs past fallowing the sound. they stay perfectly still letting his footsteps fade. Finally, as soon as their certain he's gone, they all step out and Harry lets go of Hermione.
Harry sighs in relief, "Phew... I thought we'd had it that time. Thanks Draco, you saved our arses."
Hermione stares between the two in shock. Harry, noticing the look, starts chuckling.
"Relax 'Mione, you haven't stepped into an alternate universe or anything, Draco and I have been friends ever since about a week after Halloween." He grins as Hermione starts to stutter.
"B-but-but How? I mean- All the fights, and everything..."
"All staged. We really are good actors aren't we? Even Fooled Dumbledore." Draco answered.
Harry glanced at him, he was smiling, really smiling, feeling proud that his little 'trick' had worked. Harry chuckled at the rare sight. "I hope you wrote that one down. It will definatly be usefull if we ever get caught again."
"Of course I did. I write everything down. Which reminds me, I've got a list of tricks, spells, and fight ideas for you to look at." Draco rummages through his pocket retrieving a little muggle memo pad and handing it to Harry. "It's the last page."
"Right. I'll look at it later. Now, I think that since were in a rather rare situation, a bit of reintroductions are in order. What do you guys say?"
Hermione smiled, "I agree." Draco nods.
Harry motions to Hermione, "Draco, this is Hermione Granger." He turns and motions to Draco. "Hermione, Draco Malfoy."
Hermione smiles and hold out her hand, "Thanks for saving our butts, Mr. Malfoy."
Draco grins and takes her hand, "Call me, Draco. It was nothing. Always a pleasure to save a lady with such a cute butt."
Harry busts out laughing as Hermione swatts playfully at Draco's head. Soon they join Harry laughing at themselves.
Finally Harry calms down enough to talk, "Sorry to break up this happy fest, but I think we should be getting back to our Common Rooms or someones going to notice were gone." Hermione and Draco nodded in agreement.
"Well, G'night Harry, Hermione." Draco called as he made for the stairs down to Slytherin.
"Night Draco." Hermione waved slightly.
"See you tommarrow." Harry led Hermione toward their common room.
Unbenounced to the three, the last member was in place. A new trinity had begun.
GML: Well? What do you guys think? I'm SO loving this! Draco: I'm in it! smirk Wait... I told Granger she had a cute butt... Eeeeewww! GML: Shut up Draco. Harry: Yeah, Hermione does have a cute butt. Draco: looks suspicious Why would You be looking at her butt? Harry: er... GML: Oh grow up Draco! Sheesh. Ok, Likes, don't like? Let me know!!! Snape: I ought to take points away for them being out of bed in this fic. GML: Sev! it's a S T O R Y. Sheesh... you CAN'T take points! Snape: frowns
