Chapter Six The Final Chapter

Silently the Head Boy and the Head Girl entered their shared common room. A lot of things were on her mind but she decided to ask the easiest, "Blaise, when did you find out about your role in the game?"

The raven hair young man sat on the edge of their large couch as he yawned. "I received all the information on all the characters and what my objective was the night he announced the game. I was to some how eliminated one student with the supplied sleeping potion, Draco, and to steal something of value, everyone's wands. If I failed, Snape threatened to make me dress in a pirate's outfit on April Fool's day. If no one got it right, then I would get my reward."

"And what was that?"

"Permission to take a certain Head Girl on a date outside the confides on Hogwarts. Of course, they didn't know I had planned to wine, dine, romance, and make that same girl fall head-over-heels in love with me. Then I could do many wicked things to her that would make her blush from head to toe," Blaise spoke as he watched her move a little closer to him as he explained. "What can I say? I was born a naughty boy!"

A slight blush already touched her cheek and she lightly touched his hand with her smaller one. Finally, she admitted, "But I really do think that you should still get some kind of reward for your hard work."

With his eyes turned to a dark blue, he voice was husky, as he replied, "Tempt not a desperate man."

Why is Blaise Zabini quoting the Muggle author William Shakespeare? Is that from Romeo and Juliet? Her eyes widen with realization and remember the forgotten clue in her from the tower-top. The person who wrote the paper had read Romeo and Juliet and must have watched her in her favorite spot when he wrote it. Yes, it all made sense because she remembered Blaise favorite ink for organizing his notes was that dark-blue ink. She softly recited what she remembered the translation of the runes had said. "It is my lady. O, it is my love. O, that she knew she were."

Blaise blinked twice and froze, as he understood what her comment meant. As she approached him and wrapped her arms around his neck, Hermione had finally figured out the missing clue and continued with her own favorite part of the play. "Sin from my lips? O trespass sweetly urged. Give me my sin again."
