Disclaimer: I wish...maybe If I'm a good girl Santa will put jk's soul into his back all wrapped up for moi, Hermione battles with herself in this chapter.
A/N: Hey faithful reviewers well, it's going to take a while when writing the up coming chapters but no more than three days writing each one this is because one I would like more people to review each chapter so I know exactly how people feel about my story and two because of course this is my ever so stressful GCSE year and I have other priorities as well so far I have two pieces of coursework to do which is going well and I have two modules in November.
My shouts are for the following
Mhermi: Thank you so much how did you know Millie's cookies were my favourite buying me a whole box of those lovely big ones still warm. After those cookies I feel bad for traumatising you with Trelawny like that.
Mysticdarkraven: Thank you I'm really glad you hope so and I hope you like this one as well.
Charmed piper: LoL, yeah I had to make the Hoggie boys sound corny and really lame at chatting up girls somehow just to make Mione look at only two people and than later choose.
Jojo: We going to partaaaaay, lol you rubbed off on me, thank you for your review it made it mean partyish.
Angelusdream: See I have future plans but I cannot reveal just yet and thanks.
Cia-Spinnet: Okay Draco and Mione are cute and the songs were cool tries to looks innocent but fails miserably but what is so wrong about Snape he is a hero after all I mean the fact that he is a spy is seriously putting his life at risk. Thank you I really have this cool pic of Harry in my brain singing tipsy. Thank you sooooooo much for your hilarious review, people are taking sides already for who they want Draco or Snape well it's 50, 50 between you guys but from the start I've known who I was going to choose and there will be one or more twists.
sassy-diva2004: Thank you I was hoping you guys would lurve Tipsy.

Chapter 5.
"Hermione, Hermione! We know your in their so open up or face us force feeding you polyjuice potion with a cat hair in it and you'll have to spend your last and final year in the hospital wing." Shouted Ron.
"Why did you say that for you know she hates that memory." Said Harry annoyed.
"Why did I ever give you the keys to the Heads room?" Sighed Hermione after finally opening the door.
"Why were you clapping so hard and looking at Ferret appreciating?" Demanded Ron with a scandalised look on his face.
"That is none of your business and don't you dare look at me like that I am not the one who has been meeting Luna all over school for little kissing sessions so I have no idea whatsoever why you are being difficult in a situation that is none of you concern!" Answered Hermione angered by her friends insinuation.
"Hermione I speak for myself and I say your reasons are good enough for me but do you realise that Malfoy is a mini death eater in the making and has hated us ever since the first year, not to mention his prejudice against you because you're muggleborns?" Asked Harry wondering what was going on in his friend's head.
"Harry I really appreciate you and Ron's concern but I can't tell you why because it's not my place to say. I know what I'm doing and I just ask for you to trust me." Said Hermione pleadingly.
"Mione..." But before Ron could continue Malfoy emerging from underneath what appeared to be an invisibility cloak interrupted him.
"Hermione forget it I can't let you fall out with you friends because of me, I'll tell them." Said Draco in defeat, and launched into the story finishing with telling Dumbledore and seeing what he can do for the order.
Harry and Ron sat in silence for several minutes until Harry seemed to emerge from his thoughts and walked over to Draco.
"This is all very weird for me and it's hard to accept that an enemy of seven years could turn out to be a good person but I have thought about it and I think I do trust you. If the cleverest witch in our year believes you and the greatest wizard of all time believes you who am I not to." Said Harry extending his hand to Draco who took gratefully.
Ron seemed to be thinking this all over and even though he didn't seem to convinced he extended his hand to Draco, following the suit of his best friend.
"Thank you guys so much especially you Harry you were more ready to trust my opinion than Ron was." And she pulled each one into a tight hug.
"Harry and I have to go Mione, I mean ever since you left Gryffindor tower we've actually had to think for our selves." Said Ron with great distaste, with that they left the room.
"Mione I have to tell you something, I like you... a lot... I have done since our third year when you slapped me, and well..." Draco let the sentence hang in the air before leaning into to kiss Hermione.
This doesn't feel right why am I doing it he's not Snape... ew... Hermione get a grip of yourself the best-looking boy in school is kissing you and you're thinking of the greasy git, Draco is closer to earth and he is not a forty something year old, but he kiss's so good, his lips taste soo good, the forceful yet gentle lips the tingly feeli... that's enough Mione just kiss him back.
"I'm sorry Mione you obviously don't like me." Said Draco horrified.
"Draco shut up." Said Hermione putting her fingers through his hair and dragging him closer to her locking lips with him trying to truly enjoy the taste of his savoury lips.
"Draco, we are going to have to keep this a secret Slytherin would never accept it." Said Hermione sadly.
"Hermione if it was Slytherin I'd tell them to get lost and mind there own, the only reason I'm not shouting it from the north tower to make sure everyone knows is because I want to help the order and the most useful way is to pretend I'm a Death eater born and raised." Said Draco in a bitter voice.
"I understand." Said Hermione not feeling completely content, not sure if this is what she truly wants.
"You're a beautiful person Hermione and anyone can see that." Said Draco before he got up to go.
Why did I kiss him? Do I want this? Mione we have been through this Draco is everything you need a guy, he's brave, thoughtful, sensitive! He's got it bad for you! Take the chance! But... but nothing don't even think about that other kiss it was a mistake... A wonderful mistake! Mionbe it would never work! I know.
4 weeks later.
It was common knowledge throughout the school that tomorrow was the semi finals and Snape was dreading it, ever since the kiss he had avoided Hermione and in lessons he no longer drew attention to the fact that she was an insufferable know it all and yet it broke his heart that few knew he had to learn of Draco and Hermione's relationship. Of course it was hushed up because of Draco's importance to the order but being close to both student and headmaster he knew.
"Problem Severus?" Asked the Old Headmaster looking worried for his potions master.
"Should there be?" Replied Severus.
Insufferable man, my respect for him has its boundaries and he's crossing it by meddling with my affairs.
"And yet this aging wizard cares not about your respect, but demands to know what is going on." Said Dumbledore with a trace of a smile. "As a friend and Colleague."
"I...I cannot discuss it here Albus." Said Snape.
"I am not asking you to, meet me in my office at 12 pm Snape, if anyone asks you are merely having a discussion with me over Saturday lunch." Said Dumbledore pleasantly.
Snape arched an eyebrow at this.
"Hermione we have been going out for a month now can you not tell me what song it is you're singing?" Asked Draco with puppy dog eyes.
"That one doesn't work with me Romeo." Said Hermione trying to hide the laugh that was threatening to come out. "Anyway I still have to study so if you don't mind.
"Fun sucker, back to good old 'mione and her boos than I guess." Said Draco.
"What is that supposed to mean Draco?" Asked Hermione Venomously. "Am I meant to be a Slytherin slut who cares more for looks than books?"
"I didn't say that Mione you misunderstood." Said Draco pleadingly.
"I Know it's just I'm so annoyed at the way people always treat me as if I am some kind of mutant for caring about my studies, truth be told it hurts me inside, this is who I am!" Said Hermione with a sigh.
"I'm sorry Hermione." Said Draco leaning in to give Hermione a quick kiss before he went off for Quidditch practice.
Oh my god that is the first time in weeks I haven't enjoyed his kisses! Mione stop now before it goes too far! How can I when it is always eating me up inside so badly, I know I'm not satisfied and yet I feel happy with Draco. There you go then they are passing thoughts. No it's not otherwise it wouldn't keep coming back to me like t does. Hermione you'll hurt Draco. I know and that is the last thing I want to do, I love him as a friend he has become part of our trio secretly we have now become a quartet.
"That's all Albus I swear." Said Snape finishing his story.
"Do you love Hermione?" Asked Albus as if it was completely natural.
"I know I do." Said Snape sadly, regretfully. "I feel so sick, a pervert."
"Severus since when have wizards branded teachers getting involved with their students?"
"Never, but it doesn't change the fact that I feel like one." Said Snape bitterly.
"Severus Snape there have been a lot of Student/Teacher relationships in the past, people found it odd but people understand that Love has no boundries, The mind is for seeing, the heart is for hearing (a/n: arab proverb) Listen to your heart Severus." Said the wise old wizard.
"Yes your right Albus, there's just one problem the song you chose for me is inappropriate now, don't you think a change would be good?" Asked Snape.
"Of course, I have the perfect song in mind." Said Dumbledore.
Dumbledore spoke to Snape and the discussion carried on until the night.
Sunday afternoon.
"Welcome Hogwarts staff and students this is the semi-inals and here are our five contestants, Harry Potter, Neville Longbottom, Draco Malfoy Professor Snape and Hermione Granger, all of whom have had their music chosen by Professor Dumbledore." Said Colin Happily.
"Now we all know that this is important for the two hopefuls who wish to enter the finals so to be fair deciding the entering competitors is the much celebrated Celestina Warbeck, and Myron Wagtail the lead singer of The Weird Sisters." Said Dennis positively shaking with fear at addressing these famous singers. The great hall was screaming for both musicians shouting their love and dedication to their music.
"Yes, I know exciting is it not? Now our first contestant for tonight will be Harry Potter singing Smells like teen spirit – Nirvana."
Load up your guns, bring your friends
Its fun to lose, and to pretend
She's over bored, and self assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello...
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid, and contagious
Here, we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino,
a mosquito, my libido
Yeah!
(YEAY 2x)
I'm worst at what I do best
And for this gift, I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
and always will, until the end
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello...
With the lights out its less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here; we are now entertain us
A mulatto, an albino,
a mosquito, my libido
Yeah!
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess, it makes me smile
I found it hard, it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, never mind
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello...
With the lights out its less dangerous
Here, we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious

A denial (x9)
The Hogwarts students were hardly able to contain themselves it was after all a favourite for most of them and no one could say Harry didn't suit the part.
"Well done Harry!" Said Colin happily, now may you please welcome Neville Longbottom back onto the stage who is be singing get off my back by Bryan Adams.
Well you think that you can take me on
You must be crazy
There ain't a single thing you've done
That's gonna phase me
Oh but if you want to have a go
I just want to let you know
Get off of my back and into my game
Get out of my way and out of my brain
Get outta my face or give it your best shot
I think it's time you better face the fact
Get off my back
You know it's all just a game that I'm playing
Don't think that you can find a way in
That's what I'm saying
Oh if you want to have a go
I just want to let you know...
Neville sung that with such a vigour it made it seem so real and everyone who had thought it was funny to make Neville the primary source of all their cruel joke truly felt guilty and clapped for him to show how sorry they were and how good he was.
"Thank you Neville, now for our next act Draco Malfoy Harder to breath – maroon 5"
How dare you say that my behaviour is unacceptable
So condescending unnecessarily critical
I have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step cause if I do you'll need a miracle
You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
This Double Vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
Not fits to f tread the ground that I'm walking on
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better you never listened to what I've said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Does it kill
Does it burn
Is it painful to learn
That it's me that has all the control
Does it thrill
Does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
is there anyone out there cuz its gettin harder and harder to breathe
"That was excellent," shouted Dennis over all the screams of the Hogwarts populace.
"It's time for our forth act that came as quite a shock to everyone, our Potions master can sing, dance and entertain! Lets see if he can carry on this legend that our student body has made about him." Shouted Colin unable to talk with the shouts of the Slytherins filling the great hall. "Singing Taylor Dayne I give you Professor Snape."
We need to lay in each other's arms
There's no where else to go
It's all so easy and I want you to know
There'll never be another one who could get this close to me
Everything you give to me is everything I've ever dreamed of
Even when you turn your back now
I can feel you reaching for me
Even when you walk away
I'll still know where you're hiding
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
I've seen your tears fall when you thought you were alone
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
I can't believe it
You try to make like I'm not there
To show me how you feel
You don't have to hurt me with the hurt that you won't reveal
There'll never be another one who could get this close to you
I can give you everything that you've ever dreamed of
Even when you turn your back now
I can feel you reaching for me
Even when you walk away
I still know where you're hiding
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
I've seen your tears fall when you thought you were alone
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
I can't believe it
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
The more you try to hide your love, the more it shows
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
I can't believe it
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
The more you try to hide you love, the more it shows
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
I can't believe it
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
Your eyes say yes even when you tell me no
I can't believe you've got a heart of stone
I can't believe it
The hall broke out into applause; he had managed another perfect song, hit all the notes, and moved to the right beat. Hermione was looking at Snape with something in her eyes that was not usually seen there longing, desire.
Is this the normal teenage crush? Of course it is a lot of girls fancied their teachers. That is all it is a crush Mione and don't you forget it, you belong with Draco. Do I? Yes, You do! "I do!"Muttered Hermione, as she waited for her call onto stage.
"Singing Breathless by The Corrs." Said Dennis full of excitement.
Go on, go on
Leave me breathless
Come on
The daylight's fading slowly
The time with you is standing still
I'm waiting for you only
The slightest touch and I feel weak
I cannot lie
From you I can not hide
I'm losing will to try
Can't hide it
Can't fight it
So go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Till I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Let me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah come on
And if there's no tomorrow
And all we have is here and now
I'm happy just to have you
You're all the love I need somehow
It's like a dream
Although I'm not asleep
I never want to wake up
Don't lose it
Don't leave it
So go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Till I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Let me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah come on
And I can't lie
From you I can not hide
I've lost my will to try
Can't hide it
Can't fight it
So go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Till I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on
Hermione finished and like before all the Hogwarts boy were intoxicated by her voice and it was as if they had awoken from a trance when Hermione sang her final note. It was as if she had cast a spell and their rapt attention was very noticeable indeed.
"That was our last talent for today and it's over to our judges." Said Dennis. Both judges had just been discussing something and it was Celestina Warbeck spoke "Myron Wagtail and myself have agreed it should be the two people we thought were equally magnificent." Explained Celestina Warbeck.
"Now forget the marks there was no doubt so marks or no marks we know who we want!" Stated Myron.
"Will Harry Potter, Neville Longbottom and Draco Malfoy head back to their table the three to enter the finals are Hermione Granger and Severus Snape." Said Celestina clapping along with everyone else.
"Well done, I must say it was unexpected, but brilliant, who knew Severus could sing? Now both of you will not only sing for us on Christmas Day but you will also help plan for the event I have in mind, it is a ball, you will be informed of the theme in two weeks time when Professor Snape and Hermione Granger have had time to talk and think about it, that is all now everyone head to your common room."
A/N: People don't hate me; just because I wrote what I did it doesn't mean I may do it! Remember it is a mystery but as really nice reviewers I'm hoping you will stick with me whatever I choose whatever the reason.
