Here goes the second chapter!
Invitaions,News,Shopping, and THE Ball
Hermione finally gave up on watching the boys and focused her attention on the boy's song. It was her favorite song and he was doing wonders for it. 'Wow...' she thought and finally decided to head upstairs. After all, being eye-candy for your two best friends is rather annoying. She walked upstairs and into her room. A letter was in the center of her bed.
I am pleased to invite you to my Head-Boy party tonight. It is a masquerade so the proper attire is requiered. Thank you and hope to see you there!
Draco Malfoy was written carefully on the bottom. An adress was written next to his name. ' 30 Sunrise Blvd.' She put on a pair of pants and a Good Charlotte t-shirt. Both black.She grabbed her wallet filled with muggle and wizard money. She stepped outside and looked at the adress on the house. '32 Sunrise Blvd.' Right next door to him. HIM. Draco Malfoy. " I have to go now." she said and smiled wickedly. " Guys, I'll be back." She called inside and started towards the main street. While she was walking, she saw a costume store. Right next to it was a beauty parlor. Ironic, huh? She stepped into the store and was welcomed with the smell of apple pie.
" Hold on Hermione, I'll be right out." came a woman's voice from the back rooom.
" Ok." she didn't ask how she knew her name, she just figured it was normal. A second later, a woman with black hair and red tips stepped out from behind the counter.
" Ahhh. Well, sit on the chair and envision your dress. And mask. I can tell that you are going to Draco's party tonight."
" I am." She said and sat in a comfortable chair. She envisioned a long, black, strapless gown with a pair of gloves, shoes, and a beatiful blue silver and black mask. A whoooshing sound was heard and she opened her eyes. The dress she had thought of was hanging infront of her. " Dude." She said.
" Well, try it on. And I'll get you jewelery." Hermione disappeared into the dressing room and put the dress on. It fit her perfectly. She stepped out and the woman showed her a beautiful black-diamond necklace. "Wow." she said.
" You like it"
" Can you make it a chocker though"
" Of course." she put it on Hermione's neck and it shortened to a chocker. " Good"
" Perfect. How much"
" 75 galleons."
" That's it? Well, I know where I'm coming from now on." She handed the woman her money and took the bag over to the salon.
" Hello. And welcome to the Element Spa And Botique. How may I help you"
" I need my hair and nails done."
" Follow me." a short woman led her to a room with 7 chairs. " Sit." Hermione sat. " What would you like"
" An up do and my hair dyed black."
" And your nails"
" Black."
" Any make up"
" No. I can do that myself."
" Fine." 20 minutes later, Hermione's hair was a deep black. It was pulled into a bun on top of her head with a piece of blue hair in curls hanging in front of her eyes. " Good"
" Yes. How much"
" 15 galeons." Hermione handed her the money and walked back to the mansion.
" What the bloody hell happened to you" Harry and Ron screamed when she walked in.
" I am going to Draco's Head Boy ball tonight. Now, if you'll excuse me, I must go get ready." she started to walk away and was grabbed by Harry.
" No."
" I am going whether you like it or not." she said defiantly.
" Why"
" Because I want to have fun. I get that you are my boyfriend Harry, but I am going. And I want to associate with other purebloods."
" What"
" Hi I am Hermione Granger, Head Girl, 7th year Gryffindor, PUREBLOOD. Now, I have a party to go to." she got ready and left the house.
She walked over and the door opened. " Hello. In the hall. " A house elf said.
" Thank you." she said kindly. She stepped into the door and was greated with a grand staircase. She walked down and realized the music playing in the backgound. A Perfect Circle, 'Passive'. She walked over to the drink table and grabbed a cup of punch. She took a sip. Spiked. What could you expect? He is a Malfoy. A slow song came on and she took another sip. 'This is going to be amazing.' she said and smiled to herself.
" Care to dance" a boy asked. The voice. And the Hair. It was Draco! No, she didn't just say yes. She is not holding hands with HIM. She does not enjoy this. Ok, so she is and she does.
'This is soooooooo wrong.' she said to herself. He was smiling at her. " I know you." she said and smiled.
" How? I have never seen you before."
" You have. You just never noticed. Oh and by the way" he spun her out and brought her back into a dip" you would be a very good musician. That is, if you obey your heart." she smiled at him as he pulled her up.
" Would you like to get some air? It is rather stuffy in here." he said to her.
" Of course." she replied. They made there way out to the bench in the front yard. They sat out there for a while learning more about each other. They liked a lot of the same things. Rock music, hated school, and had odd family lives at home. He pulled off his mask. He reached for hers but she grabbed his arm" That isn't a good idea..."
" Why"
" Cause once you see who I am, everything you just heard will give way and we'll be back at square one."
" I don't care who you are. I know the real you and nothing is going to change that. I feel like I like you and I haven't even seen your face yet."
" Define like."
" Crush." he admitted with a blush.
" And the girl next door makes the Slytherin Prince blush. What would the rest of his house mates say"
" I'll tell you when you take your mask off." she let go of his arm and he pulled the mask up. He gasped when he saw her face.
" I told you." she said and stood up. " See you at school." she started to walk off.
' Oh god, it's her. I can officially play on my feelings... Should I?' " Hermione, wait up." she stopped at the sound of her name. He ran to her and stepped in front of her.
" You called me Hermio" before she could finish, she was wrapped in a kiss. Her eyes closed and her hands made there way to his shoulders. She pulled away. " Don't mess with my heart. I can't do this." she walked back to the mansion with tears flowing from her eyes. He stood dumbfounded. When she reached the pathway up to the door, she looked at him. Her eyes beckoned for him to follow her. He walked up to her and stared at her in the eyes. He saw a darkness in them that said she had a boyfriend.
" Harry"
" Yes."
" You don't like him."
" I know."
" Why don't you leave him"
" I-can't"
" Why can't y" he was cut off.
" Hermione"
" Third window from pool. Top floor. Go to your room. You can see it from there. Come over as soon as he leaves. Say 32 sunrise blvd. Room 12. " she looked at him and he understood. " Good bye Draco." She said and walked up to Harry. " Hello Harry."
" What were you doing with HIM" Draco heard Harry say and pull Hermione inside the house. He ran back to his house and he snuck up to his room. He stood by the window and saw Hermiones balcony door open and he heard screaming. " HOW COULD YOU! HE'S A MALFOY! YOU GO TO HIS PARTY AND THEN YOU BRING HIM TO MY HOUSE! HOW COULD YOU SO THIS TO ME!TO US"
" Harry lsten to me! I can't do th" he heard a loud smack and saw Hermione fall.
" YOU DON'T HAVE THE BALLS TO LEAVE ME! YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET ANYONE BETTER! YOU LITTLE BITCH! YOU ARE A NO GOOD WORTHLESS LYING PUREBLOODED WHORE" he kicked her hard in the stomache and stormed out of the room. Draco heard crying coming from the room. He imediately flooed over to her room. In a corner of the room Hermione was curled in a ball crying her eyes out. Draco stepped over to her and knealt by her.
" See why I can't" she said and he hugged her.
" Why don't you leave"
" I can't."
" come to my house"
" You are kidding."
" No. with my dad...gone, my mom would love you."
" I can't. I have to stay here."
" Well, I'll come stay with you."
" Come on. I'll take you to Sirius." they walked to the Master Bedroom on the third floor. They had to dodge Harry and Ron on the way though,
She knocked and the door opened" Hermione! Glad to see- what is that doing in my house"
" He wants to know if he could stay with us."
" Why"
" So he can protect me..."
" I thought you were dating Harry"
" I was. He- got out of hand."
" Did he" Sirius grabbed her arm and looked at the bruises., He felt her stomache and she winced. " I am so sorry. If it has come down to this, I'll set up another bed in your room. Draco just needs his Mom's consent."
" Ok." Draco said. " Come on, Let's head back to the party."
" I am not dating you either. I still consider you a semi-heartless egotistical jerk."
" Sure. And don't use big words, it confuses me" they went back to his house and partied the rest of the night. When they got back, they were greated with glares from Ron and death threats fom Harry.
