OMG! I love all of my wonderful reviewers! You guys are super!!!! There will probably be a lot of descriptions in the beginning of this chapter because it is the dance after all.
Enjoy!!!! Hermione and Draco rock!!!!!!!
~Last Time!~
"Wait," Draco called after her. "Where is Hermione?"
"She wanted you to be the first to see her. She will be down shortly." she replied and they left.
'Wow, she looked a lot better without that Weasley red-hair.' Draco thought. Then suddenly, all of the lights went out. 'What is going on?' he thought as he slowly became slightly worried. He turned towards Hermione's door. He was about to go check on her when he saw a faint glow coming from in front of her door. Now he was really confused.
His eyes were refocusing as the glow began floating towards him. After a few seconds, his eyes were adjusted enough to see that it wasn't just a light, it was a person. It was…Hermione. Draco smiled as she approached admitting a faint glow. She was also flying. 'Wow, my little genius. She found a spell that makes her fly.' he thought, very impressed with his girlfriend.
Hermione was now only a few feet from Draco and his eyes were glued to her. She looked amazing. He took in every inch of her as she come towards him. Her hair was down up and had several curls hanging down around her face. She had silver streaks and glitter in it. She was wearing light blue and silver make-up above her eyes. She also had glitter covering her arms and chest. Her costume was two pieces. The top was a halter top with spaghetti straps. It showed her stomach, but in a tasteful way. She was also wearing a skirt. It was silver and looked similar to a tutu. It was a little shorter than knee length and revealed her endless legs. She was also wearing glass slippers. They showed her perfectly manicured toes and her delicate feet. She also had white wings fluttering lightly behind her. 'She looks like an angel.' he thought when she finally reached him.
"Y-you look…" he stuttered.
"That bad huh?" she asked.
"No! You look fantastic, I just couldn't find the right word to describe how wonderful you really do look."
"Well, just say some and I will tell you when you get to the right one." she joked, but he started listing.
"Sexy, stupendous, fabulous, gorgeous, delicious, wonderful, beautiful, splendid…"
"Okay, okay. You can stop. So what do you think about the glow?"
"It was awesome. You looked like an angel. But why did you do it?" he replied.
"Well, we need to make a grand entrance, don't we?" she said as she checked Draco out.
'Wow, he looks hott!' she thought. He had a pair of tights covering his long, muscular legs, he was wearing a pair of shorts that had elastic around the ends, and a shirt jacket that was tight around his waist that went midway down his thighs. He also had a set of wings, but they looked fake, unlike Hermione's. He had his hair slicked back and he was wearing a gold crown.
"I guess. Oh, I got something for you." he said as he noticed her studying his crown.
"Really? What is it?" she asked in an excited voice.
"Well, I was thinking that since we are royalty, we need something to show it." he replied. Hermione looked confused and Draco pulled out a small diamond tiara.
Hermione's eyes brightened as she studied the beautiful crown. "Oh Draco! It's beautiful!"
"I thought you would like it."
"Is it…real?"
"The diamonds?" he asked and she nodded. "Yeah. I saw it at the jewelry shop in Hogsmeade a month ago and I had to get it for you."
"Oh my God!" she yelled as she threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly. "You are so wonderful. Oh and by the way, you look so hott!" she screeched as she gave him a light kiss on the lips.
"You want me." he said as he smirked at her.
"What can I say, you are the sexiest guy ever!" she said and lightly punched his arm. "Okay, now we definitely need to do something with those wings."
"What's wrong with my wings?" he said defensively.
"They look fake. Now turn around." she ordered and he did. "Possum Volo." she whispered and his wing began changing. The ends looked like they were a part of his back. Then she whispered, "Fugo" and they began flapping softly. "There, that's much better. Now look at mine, do they look real?"
"He looked at her bare back and saw that it really looked like they were coming out of her skin. "Amazing! They look realer than real!"
"Good. Now I am going to make you glow and then we can go." she said as she pointed her wand at him once again. 'Orno Cum Levis.'" she said and the glow that was emitted from her skin was now mimicked onto his.
"You are brilliant!" he said. "Let's go."
"Not just yet."
"We have to get there to open the dance."
"Yeah, but we aren't going to go in until everyone is already there."
"Why?"
"We have to make a grand entrance." she said again.
"Well, if we aren't in there before everyone else, they will see us from the back of the room."
"No, we are going to sneak in and no one will see us until we want them to."
"How?"
"I have an invisibility cloak that we are going to wear." sh responded as if it was no big deal.
"You have an invisibility cloak?"
"Well, sort of. It's Harry's."
"What?! No wonder! That explains so much."
"You won't tell, will you?"
"No, I wouldn't never do anything to upset you."
"Good. I love you."
"I love you too."
"Okay, we can go now. Come on." she said as she drew the cloak around them.
"I am excited. This is going to be great!"
*****************************************************
Draco and Hermione raced down the halls under the cloak. They were still under the glowing spell, so they had to be careful to stay completely covered at all times.
*****************************************************
~Harry~
Harry and Ginny arrived at the Great Hall and they looked around for Ron and Susan Bones. When h saw the he walked over to them, pulling Ginny behind him. Harry smiled at the couple. They were dressed as, Romeo and Juliet. 'How cute.' Harry thought as they approached the table.
"Hey, Ron, Susan. Having fun?"
"Hey Harry, Ginny." he said barely glancing at them. "It's okay, nothing has happened--" Ron's head suddenly shot back to Harry and Ginny. "What are you two doing together?!"
"We are dance partners." replied Ginny in a defensive voice.
"What? Why didn't you tell me, Harry?!"
"Well, it was kind of a last minute thing." he replied and then decided to change the subject. "This is amazing! 'Mione and Malfoy did a good job. It's all smoky and I saw a severed head floating around."
"Yeah, the decorations are bloody brilliant!" said Ron.
"I like the jack-o-lanterns. The candles change colors." said Ginny.
"Yeah, this is--" Harry's words were cut off when all of the jack-o-lanterns suddenly went out. The whole hall was plunged into everlasting darkness. Harry could hear confused whispers emerge around him, then a light appeared in the front of the room. He, along with everyone else, turned towards the light.
The light was coming from the top of the head table. It was like two glowing balls of light.
****************************************************
Hermione and Draco reached the head table and looked around. Most people were admiring the decorations and talking to their friends. "Ready?" she whispered into his ear.
Draco nodded and she smiled. " Vasto Solis." and the light suddenly went out. Hermione counted to three and they pulled off the cloak. All of the students were immediately blinded, so she said, "Nullus Magis Levis" and they dimmed.
*****************************************************
~Harry~
The lights on stage dimmed and Harry could tell that it was two people. They looked like angels and they were holding hands. 'Who are they?' he wondered as the female opened her mouth.
"Thank you for coming this evening." The voice was very familiar, but his brain was drawling a blank.
"We are glad that everyone chose to attend." Continued another familiar voice, coming from the male.
"Are those teachers?" asked Ron.
"I don't know, but that girl is hott!" Harry replied.
"So is that boy." replied Ginny and Susan.
Then the two people in front began talking again. "As Head Boy and Head Girl, we wish to welcome you and we hope you have a great time!" they said together, leaving everyone in the crowd totally stunned.
"That's Hermione?" Ron asked with his mouth hanging open.
"And Draco?" added Susan with a hint of disgust in her voice.
"I guess so. She looks amazing. I looks so…real." Harry replied, his eyes never left Hermione's beautiful figure.
'She looks drop-dead-gorgeous!' he thought as he began having the first sexual thoughts about Hermione that he has had in a long time.
He was suddenly brought out of his reverie when Hermione began talking again. "Let the festivities begin!"
"The dance floor is now officially open!" Draco added as the Weird Sisters began playing.
*****************************************************
"As Head Boy and Head Girl, we wish to welcome you and we hope you have a great time!" they said together, leaving everyone in the crowd totally stunned.
Hermione smiled and turned to Draco. He smiled back at her and they both knew that no one had known who they were. "Verto in Levis." she said and the lights came back on.
Hermione began talking again. "Let the festivities begin!"
"The dance floor is now officially open!" Draco added as the Weird Sisters began playing.
The students looked puzzled for a second longer, but soon began dancing and having fun once again.
Draco jumped off the table and held his hand out to Hermione. She took his hand and climbed off. "When did you learn all of these spells?" he asked.
"Well, I have been staying up late, reading spell books from the library in our room."
"No way, you have been with me."
"I went after you fell asleep. I didn't want you to know. I wanted it to be a surprise."
"Oh." he said and he stood and looked at the dancing students before he turned to Hermione once again. "may I have the honor of dancing with you, Queen Titania?"
"I would love to dance with you, my king."
"Hey, I like the sound of that, King."
"Okay, I won't say that anymore." Hermione kidded.
"Funny."
"Are we going to dance or not?"
"I don't know if I want to dance with you anymore." he whined.
"Fine. I will go dance with Harry and Ron." she said and she turned and began walking away.
Draco's eyes widened and he ran to her. He grabbed her wrist and pulled he back. "That won't be necessary. I will dance with you."
"I don't know." she began, but he placed his arms around him and began to pull her towards the dance floor. "Well I guess I don't have a choice now." she complained.
They danced and danced.
An hour later, Draco wanted a break. " I am going to go talk to Harry and Ron for a few minutes, I will be back soon." she said as she kissed him in the cheek and walked away.
"Wait, don't forget that we still have to get ready for the costume contest." Draco yelled after her.
"I know, we have a half and hour and I will be back in a few minutes."
Hermione walked towards her friends. Ron and Harry were sitting alone talking. "Hey guys, having fun?"
"Oh, Hermione! Yes! You costume is awesome! You look great!" Harry said as soon as he saw her.
"Totally! You look sexy!" Ron said.
"Thanks." Hermione said, smiling at them both. "Would either of you like to dance with me?"
"I will." they blurted out at the same time.
\ Hermione smiled and she said, "One at a time."
"Ron, you can go first. I want some punch, but Hermione has to promise me the next dance." Harry said.
"I promise." Hermione said as she took Ron's hand and walked out to the dance floor once again.
It was a fast song and Hermione and Ron talked and laughed as they danced. "This is so great! You and Malfoy are bloody geniuses!" he said.
"Did you just compliment Draco?" Hermione asked, acting shocked.
"Ha, ha, ha."
Just then, the song ended and they walked back to Harry. "Ready?" she asked Harry as the song changed.
"Yep." he replied as they walked out on the dance floor. A slow muggle song came on and Harry blushed. He gently rested his hands on her waist and she out hers on his shoulders.
"You really do look great." Harry said, causing Hermione to blush deeply.
"Thanks, Harry."
"Hermione?"
"Hmm?"
"Do you really love Draco?"
Hermione was kind of startled, but she nodded. "Yes, I am."
"Okay, but if he hurts you I am going to kill him."
"Thanks, Harry. You are the bestest best friend ever." she said as she laid her head on his chest and they swayed to the music.
*****************************************************
~Draco~
Draco was sitting at a table talking to Blaize Zambini. "Hey, did you hear? Snape caught Jimmy and a Gryffindor chaser making out in the gardens. He gave them both detention, and sent them back inside." Blaize said as he laughed at the thought.
"Really?" Draco asked, only half interested. He was looking at Hermione and Potter. They were dancing awful close. Then Hermione leid her head on his chest and he buried his face in her hair. Draco felt a twinge of jealousy, but it was weird. He hadn't been worried about Potter so much as Weasley. Did he have something to worry about? He wondered.
"Draco? Are you listening?" Blaize asked.
"What? Yeah, I spaced. What did you say?"
"I was asking you about the next Quidditch game against Ravenclaw. Are you ready?"
"Yeah. I think we are good."
*****************************************************
The song ended and Hermione and Harry separated. "Thanks for the dance." Harry said as he kissed her on the forehead.
"Anytime. I heart ya, Harry." she said as she kissed him on the cheek and then walked off to find Draco.
"Bye."
"Bye."
Hermione walked over and found Draco talking to a Slytherin Quidditch player. 'What was his name?… Blaize. Yeah, Blaize Zambini.' she thought as she walked towards them.
"Hey, baby." Draco said when he saw her.
"Hi."
"I'm sure you know Blaize." he said, holding a hand out to her.
Hermione nodded and said, "Zambini."
"Granger." he said nodding his head at her.
Draco stood up and pulled a chair out for Hermione to sit in. Hermione felt slightly uneasy at first, but she sat down and smiled at Draco and Blaize.
"So, how are you?" she asked trying to break the awkward silence.
"Umm, fine. My date is out there dancing with each and every guy she can. She is weird. I don't know why I asked her." he began ranting as if he was nervous.
"Blaize. Calm down. We have to go. It was good talking to you, bye." Draco said as he grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards Dumbledore.
AN-Well that's all. I'm tired of typing. I will try to update tomorrow.
