Last Time on WTF!?…
Crowds of people rushed to the champion and Hermione stared at Neville who was still unconscious on the ground.
She quickly walked up to him and bent down taking his pulse.
He was still alive and she was sure he'd be fine.
She looked around and noticed that everyone was cheering for Draco who by now was up and looked absolutely horrible with a blood stained face and a black eye.
Hermione did the first thing that came to mind.
She left and as Draco looked around for the one face that was always on his mind. The one person to make him feel as though everything was worth it.
For once, instead of seeing her smiling, cheering face he saw the back of Hermione and he'd never been so ashamed in his entire life as he was watching her walk away.
Now on WTF!?…
IN THE MUGGLE WORLD…
Hermione couldn't stay there. She couldn't congratulate him on beating someone up.
It was wrong.
Somehow it reminded her of Harry and Ron throwing curses at Draco whenever they got the chance. It was pretty much the same thing except now in this dimension obviously no one had a wand so they had to go at it the old muggle way.
"But they are muggles." A tiny voice inside Hermione's head insisted.
Hermione shook her head. It didn't matter anymore.
The fight was over and Draco won.
Hermione reached her brother's car and stopped.
It was near the end of the week and she had looked at a schedule that morning on the refrigerator.
Tarence who she was guessing was her older brother, was taking her home.
Hermione waited and within a few minutes Tarence came from the direction of the fight.
"What are you doing back so soon squirt?" Tarence asked confusedly.
"Can we please just go?" Hermione asked as her brother unlocked the car and she got in.
Tarence nodded and started the car.
IN THE WIZARDING WORLD…
Hermione yawned as she woke up the next morning.
She turned to the other girls in the dormitory and saw their beds were empty.
Hermione then realized that today was the day of the ball.
She quickly got up out of bed and went to get dressed.
Running down to the common room she stopped as she saw Ginny, Ron and Harry looking through books on how to get their Hermione back.
Hermione ignored the looks of shock as she took away the books and threw them in front of the portrait hole for no doubt someone to trip on.
"C'mon, it's time for fun. If I know anything about Hermione that it's she must have wanted you guys to have fun." Hermione said with a smile.
"Actually, she just wanted us to study." Ron said.
Hermione frowned.
"Well, today is the day for fun then you can go back to looking for a way to switch us back. Everyone's homework is done correct?" Hermione asked looking at the three.
They nodded slowly.
"Dumbledore told us to finish before we began our search for Hermione." Harry added.
Hermione nodded.
"Good, now it's about ten o'clock now and the ball starts at 8 so we have almost the whole day to relax and goof off on our weekend and then go to the ball and have a great time!" Hermione squealed in excitement.
Without another word she grabbed the hands of her three friends and dragged them out of the portrait hole to breakfast.
"But breakfast is over." Ginny explained.
Hermione frowned.
"Well, I need to set up the Great Hall for the dance so you guys can help me with that and the sooner we get done the sooner we can be off to the Quidditch field, I've always wanted to ride a broom." Before anyone could reply with a nervous retort Hermione had disappeared through the Great Hall doors.
"Why do we need to set up now? With a wand it will only take about three minutes." Ginny asked.
Hermione frowned.
"But things look so much better when you do them by hand." She said.
"Besides, no one will see my magnificent talent if I just used a wand." Hermione said rolling her eyes.
"Not to mention you can't use one." Ron added.
Hermione narrowed her eyes at Ron.
"Yes, right." She said nonchalantly.
Before long the Great Hall was decorated.
Luckily it was such a nice Saturday afternoon that Dumbledore suggested lunch outside so as to continue the set up of the Hall.
Hermione worked through lunch and most of the afternoon until she found everything to be perfect.
The hall looked simply lovely and was decorated in a lot of deep purple and light blue streamers.
"It's gorgeous." Hermione thought to herself with a smile.
"Now can we play Quidditch?" Ron asked boredly.
He couldn't wait to see Hermione riding on a broom.
She seemed like the type to panic and run herself into the ground.
"Yep!" Hermione said with a grin.
"Lead the way Ronald." She said pointing to the door.
Ron had gotten used to the name but still kept telling Hermione to call him Ron.
"Does it really matter?" Hermione asked.
"Yes." Ron answered angrily.
Hermione shrugged as they reached the Quidditch field.
Someone was already there on the field as they arrived.
Malfoy was flying above them circling the ring smoothly.
"Aww great, ferret face is here." Ron growled.
Hermione practically had stars in her eyes.
"I'm gonna go talk to him." Without another word she grabbed Ron's broomstick and took off into the air swerving slightly.
"What is she doing?" Ron asked amazed.
Harry shrugged.
As Hermione reached Draco she smiled.
"What are you doing here Granger? You can't fly." Draco pointed out with disgust.
"Ronald and Harry are teaching me." Hermione said boredly.
Draco looked down to indeed see Potter and the two Weasley's.
Draco's mind immediately began to come up with a way to embarrass Hermione.
"You must be excited about the dance." Hermione said with a smile.
"Why would I be? Don't flatter yourself by saying because I'm going with you. As soon as we get there you can spend all of your time with Potter and Weasley and I…" Draco stopped.
"Anyway, I don't want you near me got it Granger?" Malfoy asked coolly.
Hermione glared at him.
"Alright, I don't know what the attitude problem is all about but you better listen and listen good, you asked me to the dance so don't give me this bull shit about you not wanting me around. Oh, and I have heard all the stories about how you weren't thinking when you asked but it's time for you to face facts Draco that you just might have feelings for me. As for the dance I will be spending my time with you whether you like it or not. I am your date and that's that." She finished.
Draco glared at her.
"You don't tell me what to do Granger and if I didn't know any better I'd say you got the hotts for me not the other way around." Draco finished with a smirk.
Hermione rolled her eyes.
"And here I had heard that you were one of the smartest students in this school and yet you can't figure out if a girl has a crush on you or not? Sad really." She said with a smirk.
Draco stared at her in shock.
He never expected her to admit it.
"What? Still need me to spell it out?" Hermione was having a field day in her head watching him mess around with his own emotions.
"I love you Draco Malfoy and obviously by the look on your face you feel the same way so let's cut all this bullshit and I'll see you at the dance lover boy." Hermione smiled with a wink.
Draco still didn't have a clue what just happened as she flew down to the ground.
"Oh, pick me up at Griffindor Tower at seven thirty. Don't be late either." With that Hermione landed and left the field followed closely by Harry, Ron and Ginny who were talking animatedly about what the hell just happened.
That night as Draco was getting ready he sighed.
All day he couldn't get what Granger was saying out of his head.
"She's just messing with you." He told himself.
"Don't let a stupid low life mudblood get to you." He thought sternly.
He sighed as he fixed his tie for the tenth time at least that night.
Blaise sat in a chair near the mirror Draco was looking at and smirked.
"You've never even taken that much time on your tie for Pansy. What's up?" Blaise asked.
"Nothing, just a lot's on my mind." Draco replied coldly.
"Yea right, more like stupid know-it-all Granger is on your mind." Draco thought to himself.
"Aww screw it." Draco said as he removed the tie and threw it to the ground.
"Let's go." Draco said sharply leaving the room.
Harry had asked Cho to the dance much to the distaste of Hermione.
Ron had asked Lavendar and Ginny was asked by Seamus.
The three couples had left Hermione as they had promised not to make fun of Draco for the majority of the night and decided it would be best if they weren't around him at all.
So Harry and Cho left for the Great Hall and soon after Seamus and Ginny left followed shortly by Ron and Lavendar who were keeping a close eye on Ginny. Hermione shook her head as she was taken out of her thoughts by an approaching person.
Draco walked down the corridor wearing a black button up shirt with the top buttons undone and a pair of black dress pants. His sleeves were rolled up half way and his hair as usual was falling into his gorgeous gray eyes. He wore a scowl that would scare any young child away.
As he approached the portrait followed by Blaise and his date he told Blaise to go and after a wink and a laugh Blaise went back the way he had come to go to the Great Hall.
Draco turned to the portrait and then realized that Hermione was standing right there.
It was the second time his jaw would have dropped to the floor at seeing her if he didn't catch himself.
Hermione stood in a long red dress. It was a strapless tight fitting dress that showed off all of her curves. The dress just barely touched the floor and by her extra two inches of height Draco could tell she was wearing heals. She wore a diamond necklace with small studs for earrings and just enough makeup to bring out her gorgeous brown eyes. Her hair was up in curls with a few bangs in her face.
"Ready?" Draco asked after clearing his throat.
Hermione smirked.
"We are alone, you can give me a compliment you know." Hermione said with a smile.
Draco narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth to retort but Hermione sighed.
"Well, I think you look very handsome." She said and Draco couldn't help the slight blush rising to his cheeks.
"You look nice." He said looking away.
Hermione smiled.
"Thank you." She said as he led her to the Great Hall.
Ok, so it's not one of my best works but what can I say…sometimes I have my moments. I tried to make it a bit longer but I just can't write long chapters for some reason…so you'll have to bare with me. Anyway, thanks to all reviewers!!
Spordelia Chase- Glad you liked my attempt at drama lol. Oo good I was hoping to make it surprising who won!! Thank you for your lovely reviews!! I agree…poor Draco. Oh well he'll get over it eventually! Lol. Thanks! Ttyl!
SwTnDrEaMyPnAy03- Wooo an even longer review! Your welcome ten times over and I agree these replies get easier and easier. You're just so easy to talk to! And I like the compliments lol. I'm sweet! Aww you're sweet too! Aww a hug and a kiss from you b/f? That's cute. Couples are just so sweet. I thought I was going to fail history this year but I passed with an A! my mouth was hanging wide open and my friend asked "Is it that bad?" and I grinned of course and practically jumped out of my seat I was so happy. I'm not so strong in math…actually I suck at it. Lol. And science I couldn't wait to get rid of…no offence. Hope you have better luck than I do lol. Oh that really sucks about your ex-bff in your class as your partner!! Omg I'd die! One of my ex-bff wasn't in any of my classes and the other friend switched out of my Spanish class just because I was in there. So the only time I see them is in homeroom in the morning for about 20 minutes…20 minutes of hell I call it but that's just my opinion…You're just so nice! How do you do it! Lol. I swear I should just read your review last every time b/c it puts a smile on my face. I got a really mean review and of course it had to be the last one I read so now I'm kinda sad. Oh well, I'll try not to turn into a major bitch for that reviewer…lol. It's like flamers…do they have nothing better to do than ruin your day? Anyway, sounds like you get a lot of fights at your school. My school is pretty much…well they try to be like inner city schools with all the fights and shit but it's pretty well laid back. I've only been in one fight and it was in elementary school so you can imagine how exciting that was…lol. I definitely recommend Shark Tale…it may be a kids movie but it's pretty funny…not as good as Finding Nemo granted but it's pretty good. It's kinda romancy…which I was surprised but anyway, I think you'll have fun seeing it. Well, now that all my nonsense is out there I might as well thank you for your review! Lol. Thank you! I'll try to update when I can…it's a weekend so I have more time luckily…I should work on my other fics but Idk…I'm kinda hungry…lol ttyl!
Sarah I Am- Yay you like it!! WHOO! You're really excited aren't you? That's good! Thank you for reading and I cant' wait to hear from you again! Hope you like the update!
Takeshiyo- Yea I feel bad for all the stuff Hermione's put through and yet Harry and Ron don't seem to really miss her…it's sad really…I'll have to work on that. Hahha I completely agree…Draco shouldn't be fighting for her because that doesn't prove anything…which I think he's learning but yea it wouldn't be half as exciting without a good brawl…lol. Thank you for your review! Hope to hear from you soon!
Dumdumditz23- You know, I really like your reviews for some reason…I think the way they're written makes me think of a person running by and yelling out something random…I'll try to make the chapters longer but as I said I really hate to write a lot b/c I get bored and the chapters get even more pointless then they already are…but I'll try. Thank you for your review! I love hearing from you!
Sad-soulz- Yay! A new reviewer! Thank you for reading this! I'm glad you started too! Hope you continue too! Anyway, glad you find this different! That's what I work for is to have a different idea than what's mostly out there now. Gives people variety. You're so polite!! "More magic?" That's great! Thank you! I tried to make this chapter mostly magic b/c I've spent like 3 chapters on just the muggle world so I hope you like it! Thank you so much for your review! Hope to hear from you again!
Honey-gurl808- Great chap! Glad you like it! Thanks for reading my fic! I really appreciate it! Oh and glad you like the ending also. Thanks for your review! Hope you liked the update! Hope to hear from you again!
There goes my gun- I would rather just thank you for your review instead of having to read it over just to respond but oh well…I thank you for your criticism. Sorry that you don't like…well, anything but if you read to Ch 9 before sending a review I think I'm alright. As for my writing style…if we all changed how we wrote something don't you think everything would get kinda boring? So there's nothing I can do about all that…as for using VERY large words I don't even know half the stuff you were saying without a dictionary…and really who wants to read a story where every 5 minutes you're looking up a meaning. Not me…I appreciate your interest in "helping" me but there is no way I'm going through all the trouble of finding someone to proof-read and change how I set up my stories and grammar? Too much work for a tiny story on …If I was writing a novel maybe it would be worth it but for now I don't think so. And the dialogue may not be satisfactory but for my "young" age it's perfectly fine. Oh and for the brit-picking? Should I just add in a few "bloody hell" s and call it good? Or do you think that no one would say those things?
A/N: Well, thanks to most reviewers! Out of the 89 reviews so far I've only come across one bad one so glad you like it and for the picky people sorry but you can always stop reading!! Save me some time to get updates out if I didn't spend 20 minutes on writing back to your cruel, rude remarks…anyway, sorry I'm not in the best of moods but there's nothing I can do about it now…ttyl! R&R and thanks so much for reading!
C-E-F-Y
