Unexpected Love
Chapter 7 : Modelling session- Competitors
"Sorry Professor…" said Hermione and Draco in unison.
Professor Dumbledore nodded."It's fine. Please sit down."
"So, what do you wanna talk about?" Asked Draco, who put his legs at Hermione's chair, and Hermione quickly reacted at draco's nasty manner by kicking off his legs then she looked at him furiosly.
Draco smirked.
Dumbledore who didn't see what happened, told Hermione to sit down and that there's nothing to be shy of. Hermione followed as what Dumbledore had told her.
She sat down on one of the chair with the poised, snob, bloned-haired boy in front of him.
"Our school's modelling sessions for girls will be held at the middle of this month. I have chosen couples to compete, just to inform you, I have chosen the two of you as a couple."
"What?! But we're NOT a couple!" Hermione said looking at draco with disgust. Draco just replied with a smirk but then he also argued with Dumbledore. But Dumbledore just stayed there and listened to what they're going to say, and after a few minutes of waiting...
"I'm not being reasonable, because this is also a part of your punishment.And I know that you'll thank me in the end." Dumbledore said.

"What did I ever do to him...huh? Tell me! I so can't believe this! At first, I have to be paired with YOU! Second, I have to be stuck in this room with YOU! Third, I have to join that-that freaky modelling thing and having YOU as my partner! And Dumbledore thinks that we'll thank him in the end by doing this?! " Hermione yelled as she walks around their room while Draco is sitting in his bed following her with his eyes.
"You know what? Why don't you just sit down and stay calm, ok? You can't do anything to change his mind...the man is crazy, you know that." Draco suggested and then rolled his eyes.
"How can I stay calm when i know that in few days time I have to wear those itchy long dress and those high-heeled shoes! Oh my...this is just terrible..." Hermione said and she let herself fall into her bed and close her eyes and muttered..
"Arrgh...what a curse!"

Harry and Ron found out about this the next morning. They we're not actually surprised by this because Ron and Pansy had been chosen too.
Ron, like Hermione, hate the ideas of Dumbledore...well, not all the ideas...it's just that he hated being paired with one of the school's brats! But Pansy was quite overwhelmed to be chosen as one of the competitors thinking that she'll definitely win because she's one of the good-looking girls and she's very popular too, but she thought that she was quite unlucky having Ron as his partner. This made Ron really angry.
"Well, she's lucky because she's a girl...if not, she'll wake up the next morning with pain on his face." Ron told harry. While Harry was happy that he and Ginny weren't chosen.
Days seems to fly so fast, because its just five days before the session and Hermione wasn't able to practice regarding the activity. This really made her panic because she don't have a dress to wear. Unexpected, her parents sent her a long, halter silky dress, dark blue in color with a matching pair of high-heeled shoes with glittering straps. She realized that it is also a back-less dress that showed half of her back when she tried it for the first time.
Lavander and Parvati had voluteered to help her practice. On their first day, Hermione keeps on falling and tripping everytime she tries to walk while wearing the shoes. Draco on the other hand just lauged at Hermione everytime this happens. He regards this as an oustanding entertainment show.
"Quit it, Malfoy!" Shouted Hermione from across the room.
"Hey! You can't blame if I keep on laughing...I mean, you're terrible...look at you..." Draco sniggered.
"Well, you can't blame me either! It's hard you know!" Snapped Hermione
"How could you say 'walking' is hard?" Draco teased.
"It's hard enough when you're using this stupid shoes, you MORON!" Yelled Hermione irritably. Then she took off the shoe from her left foot and threw it hard at Draco but it missed.
"Oi! Will you quit trowing things at me?!" Draco said, staring at the high-heeled shoes with terror.
"Then Quit bragging me!" Said Hermione sharply. Parvati and Lavander tried to help Hermione, but they're just too afraid.
After sometime, Hermione was able master the 'do's and dont's' when your trying to be a model.
