Chapter 20

Luck be a Lady

Ron and Draco stood next to each other waiting for the end of the scene, and their cue. Draco was very nervous. He was afraid that Weasley was gonna try to curse him again. He was seriously regretting leaving his wand in his dressing room.

"stop looking so nervous mate." Ron said "I'm not gonna hurt you. We're cool."

"I don't know what your talking about Weasley. Why would I be afraid of someone who…"

"We're not that cool Malfoy" Ron said glaring at Draco.

"Okay sorry."

The scene had ended, so first Ron walked out, and when the lights came back up Draco walked out.

"Nicely, where's the crap game?" He said going up to Ron."Well, Sky, it's about ten minutes walk from here." Ron said smugly.

"Which way?" Draco said confused."This way!" Ron said pointing to the manhole below them.
The lights went out, when they came back up they were in a sewer and a crap game was in full swing.

"I have a bet for you fellas." Draco said taking the dice out of his pocket. "If I win you will all come with me to the Mission and you won't have to pay me anything."

Crabbe came forward as Big Joule with Collin Creevy as Harry the Horse, "Big Joule says he wants to know what we get if you lose."

"You will get half a grand…… Each."

"Agreed!" Big Joule said.

Draco started to sing

"They call you lady luck
But there is room for doubt
At times you have a very un-lady-like way
Of running out
Your on this date with me,
The pickings have been lush
And yet before the evening is over you might give me the brush
You might forget your manners,
You might refuse to stay,
And so the best that I can do is pray
Luck be a lady tonight,
Luck be a lady tonight,
Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck let a gentleman see,
How nice a dame you can be
I know the way you've treated other guys you've been with
Luck be a lady with me
A lady doesn't leave her escort,
It isn't fair, it isn't nice
A lady doesn't wander all over the room
And blow on some other guy's dice
So, let's keep the party polite,
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby,
I'm the fella you came in with,
Luck be a lady,
Luck be a lady,
Luck be a lady tonight"

the other gamblers start to dance and sing

"Luck be a lady tonight,
Luck be a lady tonight,
Luck if you've ever been a lady to begin with
Luck be a lady tonight!

Everyone started to sing

"Luck let a gentleman see, Luck let a gentleman see
How nice a dame you can be, How nice a dame you can be
I know the way you've treated Luck be a lady,
Other guys you've been with Be a lady
Luck be a lady with me Be a lady with me!"

Draco continued singing.

"A lady wouldn't flirt with strangers,
She'd have heart, she'd have a soul.
A lady wouldn't make little sneak eyes at me, Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em
Sneak eyes
When I've bet my life on this roll. Roll 'em, roll 'em, roll 'em
So lets keep the party polite, So lets keep the party polite
Never get out of my sight Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, Stick here, baby!
I'm the fella you came in with, Stick here, baby!
Luck be a lady... Luck be a lady...
Luck be a lady... Luck be a lady...
Luck be a lady, What's up, man?
And roll the dice
Comin' out, comin' out
Tonight! Comin' out, comin' out right!
Ah! Ah!"
