Correction, Rachael assumed that Ron and Kelsey were going out last chapter, but all that really happened was a lot of flirting, no boyfriend/girlfriend stuff….
"What have I done?" Hermione asked herself, extremely upset. I think I like Draco more than Harry, but I don't want to hurt him, I mean I love him, I'm just not in love with him, like I am with Draco
Hermione what's up?
Draco… Harry… geez... I don't know!
Let me guess… Harry caught you making out with DracoHow'd you know?
Well, honestly 'Mione? Harry screamed loud enough to wake up the whole camp! I still have a headache, by the way.Sorry Ron, but I need to work things out with Harry and Draco, like... right now.
Okay, good luck. 'Pop!'Harry... Draco?
What do you want?
Harry, let her talkI just want to talk to the both of you... please?
Fine, we'll both be at the lakeshore in 5 minutes. Sound ok?
See you there.Hermione figured that it was time to break out her wand that she had secretly packed. After all, she wanted her only friend right now to be there, but not visible, when she confronted Harry and Draco.
Hermione ran back to her cabin, thankful that it was dinnertime, and grabbed her wand.
Ron?Yeah?Meet me… "Never mind." Hermione finished looking at Ron in front of her. Before Ron could ask any questions, she cast the newly learned spell: an invisibility charm.
"Wicked! I don't even need that old cloak anymore!" Ron said, admiring his body... or lack thereof.
"Come on, I'm going to be late." Hermione said, making an attempt to grab Ron to drag him away, but failed miserably.
"Where are we going?" Ron asked, sneaking up behind Hermione and scaring her, causing her to roll her eyes.
"Let's just go!" Hermione said. She told him the complete story along the way. Ron was quiet after he heard, thoughts swirling through his head.
When they arrived at the shore, Harry and Draco were shooting daggers at each other. Maintaining a safe distance, Hermione said, "Umm… okay?"
"Okay what?" Harry spat out, not breaking eye contact with Draco.
"Harry, listen, I'm really sorry, it's just…" Hermione started.
"Shut it, mudblood!!" Harry interrupted.
There were three gasps, Draco looked around for the source of the third one, not knowing Ron was there. He only figured it out when Hermione whispered, "Let's go Ron, with tears welling up in her eyes.
"Harry? How could you say such a thing? What is wrong with you? What have you turned into? No, don't answer that, you've turned into the old me, and that's not cool." Draco erupted with after Hermione, and Ron, he guessed left.
"You don't understand the life I've lived." Harry said simply.
"No Harry, YOU don't understand the live I'VE lived!" Draco said.
"Oh, poor you, poor Draco Malfoy, you've grown up being part of the richest wizarding family, with both parents I might add, in a castle-sized house! Not to mention the house elves living to serve you. What more could you want?!" Harry cried out.
"Love," Draco started, "friendship... I may have had parents, but my Dad sure wasn't family. My mom was the only one who cared for me, and she only did in private too. I never learned how to love until I met you and Ron… and Hermione." He finished mumbling.
"Yeah, well, don't think my life is any better!" Harry said, growing red.
"Famous Harry Potter. Everybody knows you; everybody wants to be your friend. You and that bloody scar! What makes you think you're so special?" Draco asked, also red.
"You don't understand! Everyone thinks I'm a crazy, lying, blundering idiot! The only person who stood by me time and time again was Hermione. But you know what? You can have her, because everyone I have ever loved has died because of me. That and because you would have taken her away from me anyway." Harry said, now in tears.
"Oh Harry, I'm sorry, I guess I don't understand. But we both should go talk to 'Mione." Draco said, lightening up.
You wanted something more than this, fell down for someone else's kiss.
I'm lost without your light, so I drive.
I don't know why.
But I drive from exit to exit.
Could it be the taste was bittersweet?
But it all comes down to your defeat, so high, so low.
Crash and burn, we all fall down.
I can still hear the sound of love run dry.
I lost my connection. Where do I turn?
-Exit to exit- Ryan Cabrerra
After awhile, Draco and Harry finally found Hermione, sitting alone, or so they thought, on a log.
"'Mione? I'm really sorry about what I said earlier. I don't know what came over me, I honestly didn't mean to call you that. It's just I was angry because I was going to give you to Draco as it was, because I can't afford to lose you, and every other person I've loved has died... because of me." Harry finished sadly, sitting next to her on the log.
Draco went to sit down, but heard a scream before he met the log…
"OW! Draco!" Said the voice.
"RON?!?!" Draco cried.
"Yeah, 'Mione here learned a new spell." Ron said, clutching his leg in pain.
"Oh, and with everything going on, I forgot to take it off. Finate Incantartem." Hermione muttered, still upset and crying onto Harry's shoulder.
"Harry, you're stealing my song." Draco told him, eyeing Hermione.
"What are you talking about?" Harry asked.
Draco then burst out in song:
"I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love suicide.
I'll be better when I'm, older,
I'll be, the greatest fan of your life."
"I'm terrible sorry Draco, please forgive me. Your welcome to be 'Mione's crying shoulder." Harry told him, eyeing the tearstains on his shirt.
"So 'Mione? What do you say? Do you want to be my girlfriend?" Draco asked, hopeful.
"Let me think…" Hermione said, smiling through her tears. She then too burst out in song:
"There's one in this world for everyone
One heart, one soul to walk beside you
One in this life to share love
One touch, to touch the heart inside you
When I reach for each night
When I trust with your life
That's what I believe
You're the one, you're the one in this world for me
You're the one, you're the one in this world for me
You're the one"
"I'll take that as a yes?" Draco questioned.
"You bet," Hermione winked.
"Okay, now that the little love-fest is over, does anyone have any food? I missed both lunch and dinner!" Ron said, his stomach growling.
"Yeah I do, lets head back to my cabin, we'll grab some food and head to the mess hall. Oh, and I guess I should check up on Seamus, considering I stuck him with the kids." Harry said laughing.
"Oh no! The kids! Krista! Guys, tomorrow is C.I.T's truth or dare night, be there!" Hermione said, giving Draco a quick kiss before running off.
"What's truth or dare?" Draco and Ron asked in unison.
"You'll find out tomorrow, lets go get food." Harry said, his own stomach growling.
The next night at exactly 8 o'clock, all of the C.I.T's met up in the mess hall, Ron and Draco still not knowing what they were getting themselves into. After the last person arrived, the game started. The bottle was brought out, and Rachael was to go first. She spun the bottle and it landed on Jacqui.
"Truth or Dare?
"Truth," Jacqui decided.
"Who do you like?" Rachael asked.
Figures, that is the most asked question in the history of the game.
You just know the history about everything don't you?
Of course! Now pay attention, she's about to answer…
"Seamus." Jacqui muttered.
Seamus' eyes flew open after that, and they both had blushes creeping onto their faces.
"Your turn Jacqui." Hermione pointed out.
Jacqui spun the bottle, it landed on Harry.
"Truth or Dare?"
"Dare." Harry said, being the fearless Gryffindor that he was.
"I dare you, to make out with Rachael to 3 minutes." Jacqui said, still rather angry with Rachael.
"Here?" Rachael gulped.
"Yup," Jacqui said, smirking.
While Harry and Rachael were snogging, the game continued.
"I'll go," Ron said, spinning the bottle. It landed on Kelsey.
"Truth or Dare?" Ron asked, catching on to how the game was played.
"Truth." Kelsey said.
"When, where and who was your first kiss." Ron asked eagerly.
Kelsey instantly turned pink, and felt warm. She muttered something that was barely audible.
"What?" A few people asked.
"No one." Kelsey said louder, looking down.
Perfect, me either!
Well duh!! Who would ever kiss you Weasel?
Shut up Malfoy! Came 3 voices, or thoughts rather.
What? Draco thought innocently.
"So do you want to … umm you know?" Ron asked quietly, blushing.
An equally red Kelsey nodded, and they joined Harry and Rachael in the corner who had been at it for well over 3 minutes.
"Okay then, lets continue… I guess." Hermione said.
"Screw this, lets play 7 minutes in Heaven, they're basically playing it already." Krista said, gesturing to the 2 couples.
"Okay," Steve said, eyeing up Krista.
"Forget 7 minutes in Heaven, just grab a girl." Draco said then grabbing Hermione.
After about 20 minutes of the couples kissing, Jen burst through the door.
"What is going on here??" An angry Jen cried.
This broke everyone apart. Every face in the room was blushing, as they had all gotten caught up in the moment.
"Go to your cabins… NOW!" Jen yelled.
Once back in their cabins, they all began to talk about their experiences.
"Oh my god. Steve is such a good kisser." Krista exclaimed.
"I'll bet he is not half as good as Draco!" Hermione told her.
Meanwhile…
"Oh man, Kelsey… wow." Ron told George.
"Well I sure changed my mind about Rachael… it's all about Judi!" George said happily.
"Whoa! I think those were the most words you've ever said to me in the same sentence!" said an amazed Ron, while George laughed beside him.
While…
"You sure got over Hermione fast." Seamus told Harry.
"Yea, well Rachael is amazing." Harry answered. "And you weren't exactly gloomy yourself."
"Yea well I've liked Jacqui for awhile now." Seamus told him.
Still…
"Wow! I can't believe I got my first kiss! And it was his first too!!" Kelsey exclaimed.
"Well George was definitely the best guy I've ever kissed!" Judi said.
Running out of transitive words…
"Steve?" Draco asked.
"Yeah?"
"How's Krista?" Draco teased.
"Great!" He said with a smile on his face.
And then again...
"Rachael?" Jacqui asked.
"Hmm?"
"Is Harry a good kisser?" She asked, jokingly.
"Not the best." Rachael said. This wasn't the answer Jacqui expected.
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, I have kissed better." Rachael said simply, and honestly.
"Then why did I hear Harry telling Seamus that you two were a couple?" Jacqui asked, confused.
"Oh, I'm going to dump him tomorrow." Rachael said, growing bored.
The next day, the C.I.T's were all embarrassed, especially when around a member of the opposite sex.
When it was time for soccer (I know it's called football in England,) it was the first time Harry and Rachael saw each other all day.
"Hey babe." Harry greeted her with. When going for a kiss, Rachael turned her head, so that all he got was her cheek.
What a cheek!
What's wrong?
Ugh, later. 'Pop!'
"What's wrong?" Harry asked Rachael.
"Us, we're over." Rachael said and walked away.
I'm probably the only one in history who could ever get dumped by two different girls within 42 hours!
Make me feel guilty why don't you?
That stinks…
Your not helping
Sorry
Love isn't at ALL like it is in the movies that my Aunt loves…
What's a movie? Came the two wizard-born boys.
Shut up! Your not helping… Harry, why do you say that?
In movies, the guy ALWAYS gets the girl, and vice versa, its just so… I don't know… unrealistic!
I know what you mean…
How? You've got Draco!
Do you think that I WANTED to hurt you??
No… Sorry. I'm sorry for everything. Everything is always my fault… 'Pop!'
'Cuz we lost it all
Nothing last forever
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
Now it's just too late and we can't go back
I'm sorry I can't be perfect
I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don't care anymore
And now I try hard to make it
I just want to make you proud
I'm never gonna be good enough for you
I can't stand another fight
And nothing's all right
Simple Plan – Perfect
I got to go and get ready for the end of camp dance.That's TONITE?!?!? Came 3 thought voices
Yes, now bye! 'Pop!'
Whereas Hermione took three hours to straighten her hair with Krista's muggle straightener and an additional hour to perfect every thing else, Harry and the other boys took a total of 5 minutes each to get themselves completely ready.
As there would be all muggle music playing, Ron and Draco didn't really know what to expect.
When Hermione and Krista arrived at the mess hall, they found it completely transformed from the mess hall in which they ate breakfast at that same morning. There were blue and white streamers strung around the walls, along with shimmering Christmas lights. There were also other colorful lights, surrounding the makeshift dance floor. The DJ was set up at the back.
"Wow, this is amazing! It's nothing like the Yule Ball we had back in 4th year!" Hermione said.
"Yule Ball?" Krista questioned.
Hermione came to her senses in time to say, "Oh, uh, just what we called the big end-of-the-year dance back at the boarding school that I go to."
"Oh, cool." Krista said, losing interest as Steve entered the mess hall with Draco.
After the music began to play, it took awhile for people to actually dance. The girls would cluster themselves into groups if they went out, and they all eventually loosened up. When a slow song came on, Draco came up behind Hermione, and grabbed her waist.
"Shall we?"
"Of course."
'Cause it's all in my head
I think about it over and over again
I can't keep picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
(yeah) Cause its all in my head
I think about it over and over again
I replay it over and over again
And i can't take it I cant shake it(NO)
Draco and Hermione were dancing silently, Hermione's head buried into Draco's neck, arms sat loosely around his neck, while he was holding his hands right at the small of her back.
I can't wait to see you
Wanna see if you still got that look in your eye
That one you had for me before we said our goodbyes
And its a shame that we gotta spend our time being mad About the same things
Over and over again (about the same thing)
Over and over again
Oo but I thinks she leavin
uhh man she's leavin
I dont know wat else to do
(Cant go on not lovin you)
"Oh god, oh my god! I'm still in love with Hermione!" Harry muttered to himself.
Cause its all in my head
I think about it over and over again
I cant keep picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
(yeah) cause its all in my head
I think about it over and over again
I replay it over and over again
(yeah) and I can't take it
(yeah)and I can't shake it ( no )
I remember the day you left
I remember the last breath you took right in front of me
When you said that you would leave
I was too damn stubborn to try to stop you or say anything
But I see clearly now
And this choice I made keeps playin in my head
(Over and over again)
Playin my head (over and over again)
"I have to do something." Harry said to himself before running off.
Oh I thinks shes leavin
Uhh man shes leavin
I dont know wat else to do
(I cant go on not lovin you)
Cause its all in my head
I think about it over and over again
I can't keep picturing you with him
And it hurts so bad
(yeah) cause its all in my head
I think about it over and over again
I replay it over and over again
And I can't take it and I cant shake it(no)
Harry ran over to where Hermione and Draco were still dancing, and punched Draco in the face.
Now that I realize
That I'm goin down
From all this pain you put me through
"Harry!! What was that for?!?!" Hermione exclaimed.
Everytime I close my eyes (wuu wuu)
I lock it down
ooooo I can't go on not lovin you
uh uh uh uh
Over and over again
Over and over again
Cause it's all in my head
"Mione, I still love you." Harry told her.
"Well I don't love YOU!" Hermione said before storming off to go and check on Draco.
God, what have I done now??
Well you just pretty much screwed up any chance that you had with Mione.
Thanks Ron, that was helpful.
