Hey, sorry it took sooooooooooooooooooooo long, my Gran was ill for a long time and she died on boxing day.

I said in the last chapter that they were in their 4th year but I want to make it their 5th year sorry for any confusion.

But any way lets get on with the story.

Chapter 2.

The first lesson.

~*~

Harry dragged his feet along the uneven paving of the 5th floor corridor, apart from the thought, why me he thought why do I have to have the ballet lessons, this must be the Dursley's idea of a cruel joke. Well if it was then he would not let it get him down, he would just have to prove to them that he was going to be bloody brilliant at it! He was curious to Know why Hermione was not at breakfast this morning and why Ron showed no visible notions of caring. He sighed, rounded the corner and walked straight into the ballet studio, and he stopped dead in his tracks, Malfoy was standing in front of him dressed in a pair of tights and black leotard. The expression on his face was enough to melt any ice berg. Harry could not contain his laughter any longer, and it came out in one big howl. This made Malfoy plunge his hand inside his none existent robes, so in theory he plunged his hand down the side of his tights!!! This made Harry cry out again with laughter, but this time it caught the attention, of the young but as it seemed slightly deaf dance teacher.

"That's enough boys" She called in a strong Welsh accent, " I am Professor Wilson. And I will be teaching the pair of you ballet for the next year, after that year I will be able to determine whether either of you have the makings of a ballet dancer. Now Mr Potter, I appreciate it if you would arrive at my class on time. Well it is the first lesson so I will let you off this time. In the changing room over there, there is what you need for this lesson, go and change then we can begin."

Harry walked over to the, she called it a changing room, Harry call it a curtain drawn across the corner if the room. Never the less he changed into the tights and navy blue leotard. He then slipped on the black ballet shoes and shyly emerged from the "changing room".

" Now we will start with the basic positions of the feet, this is first," she showed them how to put their feet in fist position and so on until the bell rang. Good there is no time for you to change so" she waved her wand and they were in there school uniforms again and she handed them both plush black bags that contained their ballet things and they hurried from the class room.

Meanwhile at Ron's singing lesson.

" Now" said Professor Redman " Mr Crabbe repeat after me, Me me me me meeeeeee"

" ME me me me meeeeeee" he sang operatically. Ron was so stunned that his mouth fell open.

"Good now you Mr Goyle"

Goyle repeated the exercise in a similarly brilliant voice, making Ron stuck dumb.

" And now you Mr Weasley"

"Me me me me meeeeeee" Ron sang

" Very good Mr Weasley. All of you have good singing voices. I should like to see in the school choir and defiantly auditioning for the school play. Now down to business. Have any of you listened to any music from musical theatre? " The three boys nodded "Good all of the songs we will be looking at this term come from the musical theatre. " He turned to his brief case and took out three pieces of parchment, on these the words that you need will appear and when you put it on a piano the notes will appear as you play, when you are practising and you are not able to play the piano you just tape the parchment and say plenabat and it will play the music to you as you sing." He handed the boys a piece of parchment each, " I will play the melody to your song which is called 'oh what a beautiful morning' are you ready I will sing the words to, they should appear on the parchment in front of you.

oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day, I've got a wonderful feeling, Everything's going my way.

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow, There's a bright golden haze on the meadow, All the corn is as high as an elephants eye, It look's like it's growing clean up to the sky,

oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day, I've got a wonderful feeling, Everything's going my way.

There you go now you try it Mr Weasley."

"oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day, I've got a wonderful feeling, Everything's going my way.

There's a bright golden haze on the meadow, There's a bright golden haze on the meadow, All the corn is as high as an elephants eye, It look's like it's growing clean up to the sky,

oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day, I've got a wonderful feeling, Everything's going my way."

" Very good Mr Weasley, now as you are not needed any more you can leave, but you must go to the common room and because of your spare time you can practice. You may leave."

With that Ron left the music room and hurried to Gryffindor tower.

~*~

When he got there he entered the 5th year dormitories and started to practice his song .

~*~

As Harry entered the common room he heard "The corn is as high as an elephants" coming from his dormitory. He slowly climbed the stairs, the singing was getting louder. He threw open the door and started to advance pulling out his wand, he was about to9 mutter a freezing hex when, a patch of fiery red head pocked through the hangings of Ron's bed. Harry pulled back the curtains of the bed trying to hold back his laughter. But the sight of Ron sat on his bed singing his heart out was just to much to keep in. Harry burst out laughing,

"What?" Ron had to yell to be heard over Harry's laughter "Who are you laughing at?" Ron asked rather stupidly

"You, you daft prat, I could hear you all the way down in the common room. What was as tall as an elephants what?"

"Don't let things like that worry you Harry. Any way how was your lesson in tights?"

"Oh bugger off Ron, the only highlight of my lesson was to see Malfoy in tights as well!" Ron sniggered at this "So how were the two boulders at singing?"

"Surprisingly good, they both sing like angles, well very well fed ones at least!" there was a knock on the door and Hermione's head peered around it, "Yes can we help you" Ron said rather coldly which shocked Harry. Hermione shrank back from the door, Harry walked over and opened the door, Hermione looked away and said "I just came to say that the audition timetable was up. I thought it might interest you." She started to descend the stairs but Harry caught her arm she looked up into his face her eyes full of fear. Harry gasped and released her arm she ran down the stairs and out of the common room. Harry's head was then filled with hundreds of questions, Why was Ron so cold to Hermione , why was she so scared when I grabbed her arm and why was half her face covered in bruises?

So what do you think? Please review.
