"Harry! Ron!" a voice called from behind them. Harry and Ron were making their way to the Great Hall for lunch, when they heard somebody calling their names from behind. They both turned around and saw Seamus, Dean, and a few other people from houses, which put together the party in the first place. "Harry! Ron!" they called out again. "We need to talk to you guys. You guys know about the party, right? Well, we over heard a little while ago that when the teachers are gone, they are going to put spells all over the school preventing us from doing almost anything, especially anything against Hogwarts rules and regulations. So, we all got to thinking and who is the one person who could pull it off? Then it hit us. Hermione Granger is the only who can pull it off, and you know that she won't do it, unless, there is a very good reason, or someone can compromise with her or something. Then we thought, who are the only people who can persuade her? That's where you come in. Do you think you guys can pull this off?" Seamus had a worried look on his face. He really didn't know what they were going to say, but he was hoping that they would say yes.

"I don't know," started Harry.

"Of course we will!" shouted Ron instantly.

"Ron!" Harry said irritably.

"What? I know exactly what we can do to persuade her! This will be a piece of cake."

"So you'll do it then," Seamus asked eagerly.

"That's what I just said, isn't it?" Ron replied.

"Thank you guys so much! You don't know how much this means to us. You're going to become very respected for this, you guys, very respected." Seamus and his fellow friends went to go make some more plans for the party, making sure everything was in order. Harry and Ron decided to wait until later that night to confront Hermione and talk to her about this. Right now, they both were starved and wanted food.

That night, Harry and Ron went to find Hermione. They pulled her aside in the common room. Ron apparently had a plan that Harry knew nothing about. When Harry asked him what this plan was, all Ron could say was, "You'll find out when we talk to Hermione." This made Harry mad, because he knew Ron didn't come up with the brightest ideas.

"What on earth do you want to talk to me about? What is so important that it can't wait?" demanded Hermione.

"We need your help," said Ron.

"I'm not helping you with your homework! I refuse to do it!"

"No, Hermione, that's not what we want," replied Harry.

"Then what is it?"

"Well," said Ron, "it's about the party on Sunday."

"What about it?"

"We need your help with it," stated Ron.

"I refuse to be apart of something so stupid! Do you realize how much trouble everyone could get into? You could get expelled!"

"Hermione, listen to us. No one will know if you helped or not. All we need you to do is take off all the spells, so we can have our fun. You don't really need to be apart of it, all you need to do is take off all the spells the teachers put up, and everyone will love you. You will be popular, and no one will ever give you a bad name again. Well, except for a couple people that is."

"No way. I'd also face expulsion if anyone ever told on me! I won't do it!"

"Please, Hermione, we'll do your homework for the rest of the school year."

"Coming from you Ron, that's an insult and a punishment."

"Excuse me for one moment Hermione," said Ron anxiously. Ron took Harry's arm and pulled him off to the side. "Help me Harry! That was my plan. I don't have anything else! You need to come up with something."

"You mean that was your brilliant plan? Ron that sucked! I even knew she wouldn't accept that! There is no way of persuading her."

"Please Harry. Please help me. This party is one of the biggest things that is happening to Hogwarts, besides the Triwizarding Tournament."

"I don't know, Ron. I honestly don't have anything."

"Come on Harry, think of something. I know you can."

"OK, I'll try. I have an idea."

"Thank you Harry! You are the best friend in the whole wide world!" Ron and Harry walked back up to Hermione.

"Took you guys long enough. What were you talking about?"

"Nothing, look Hermione, we are willing to do anything you want, in exchange for your help," said Harry. Ron had a slight look of fear on his face, and looked at Harry with wide eyes. Harry mouthed to him, "You wanted help; you got it." Ron looked back at Hermione, who was looking down at the floor and thinking hard, and straightened the look on his face. He still looked like a nervous git.

"Well, there is one thing," she started. "Nah, forget it. You guys wouldn't do it anyways."

"No, I wouldn't do it, Hermione! No offense or anything, you're a great girl in all, it's just, I had planned to do it with, uh, never mind. I know I'm an irresistible guy and all, but face it, it just wouldn't work between us."

"Ron! That's not what I was talking about! You men don't think with your minds, I swear! Your, your, well, you know, does all the thinking for you!" Ron turned a deep shade of maroon.

"Well, what were you thinking about then, Hermione?" Harry asked.

"I was thinking that, oh, I'm not going to say it here. Come with me outside."

"Um, OK," was all Ron and Harry had to say the whole way there.

"OK, we are here, now what is it?" asked Ron.

"Well, you guys don't laugh at me for this. Women have their curiosities and like to have fun too."

"So?"

"So, my secret wish, and the only way I would help you guys, is if you both striped for me and stood naked in my room."

Harry and Ron looked appalled. They could not believe she had just heard that.

"You mean, um, that, um, your secret wish was to.was to.was to see us naked?" said Ron finally.

"Not particularly you, but a guy. I think it would be interesting for a guy to just stand there, naked, and posing with out in gauging in sexual activity. I believe it further knowledge's a girl's mind of how a male body looks, and operates. That's my theory anyways. Plus, we get to have some fun watching it."

"Well, when you put it that way," said Ron. "Then we will not do that! It's disgusting and barbaric! Go find someone else to do you disgusting fantasies with! Am I right Harry?"

"Yeah," he stated, "I won't do that! What is under my clothes is my business, and my business only, until that right girl comes along, but for now, it's my business."

"Fine then, you just won't have a party, now will you?"

"If that's what it costs, then we don't have to have a party," yelled Ron. After he said that, he turned around, marched to the doors of Hogwarts, and went inside to go to the Gryffindor Tower.

"I agree with him, Hermione. I'm sorry, but I do. I'll talk to you later."

Harry left Hermione standing there outside. "It was worth a shot," she thought. Hermione went inside herself and went to bed. Somehow, she knew that she would get what she wanted.
