Chapter 11 Cancelling

Draco continued down the hallways until he reached the familiar Slytherin Portrait hole. He missed coming here to think at times. It was one of his greater hobbies. Just sitting, thinking about absolutely nothing half of the time.

He walked in seeing absolutely no seventh or sixth years. Of course he wouldn't see them; they had the same stupid project that he did.

He plunked himself down on a chair by the fire away from the others. They all looked at him with interest but quickly looked away when he shot them a glare. Oh why couldn't this be over! Draco's mind screamed.

A scared looking third year walked up to him and cleared his throat. He was trembling, not wanting to disturb Draco or get in his way.

Draco cocked an eyebrow and then drawled "Yes?" to the boy.

"P-professor Dumbledore wants to see you, s-sir" he said and hurried off.

Draco stood up quickly and left the common room. He hurried quickly to the Headmasters office. He wondered what he needed to speak to Draco about. Surely he had done nothing wrong, that he knew of anyways.

Before he had notices, he had reached the revolving staircase. He knocked on the oak door and after a few moments he heard the Headmasters voice faintly calling him to come in.

Draco opened the door to see Hermoine sitting in a chair, seeming like she wanted to keep to herself. Oh shit, Draco thought, this is probably about what happened back in the common room.

"Please take a seat, Mr. Malfoy" Professor Dumbledore said, extending his arm to the available chair that was sitting beside Hermoine.

Draco sat down as Professor Dumbledore sat down on the opposite side of the desk.

"Sherbet Lemon?" Dumbledore offered a dish of tallow candies to the two who both shook their heads.

Dumbledore placed the bowl back down on his desk and beamed at the two. "Now I suppose you're confused at why you're here at the current moment."

Both shook their heads as a sign for Dumbledore to continue with his 'speech'.

"It seems this project is creating more problems, so we are going to stop it this evening."

Both Hermoine and Draco let out sighs of relief. They wouldn't have to share a bed anymore (though deep down neither really minded), have sleepless nights from the constant screaming of Marissa, or have to deal with the foul stench every couple of hours. It really was not a piece of cake.

"All students, except for you of course, will return to their regular dormitories and house common rooms" Dumbledore continued. "And seeing as there is a month left before Christmas, classes will start up on Monday for sixth and seventh years. Seeing as today is Thursday, I figured a few extra rest days would be useful to the students."

Hermoine was grinning from ear to ear and Draco was attempting to suppress his cheers and even a victory dance. Dumbledore chuckled at the sight of them and started again.

"Now that we're on the subject of Christmas, I'd like you to pull together the house Prefects sometime and plan an event for Christmas, a ball, a carnival, what have you. And since that is all, I bid you a good day."

Hermoine practically skipped down the hallway in joy, and when she arrived back at the common room there was no baby in sight, or sound for that matter.

"Sweet!" Hermoine cheered while pumping her fist in the air and dancing around the common room.

Draco gave her a confused kind of stare and headed to his dormitory to find that all of his possessions were just as he had left them, in their original state.

He walked in showing absolutely no emotion, but feeling quite relieved that things were finally back to how they should've been from the start. Now he could keep the filthy mudblood out of his life…Or try to as this was it would be easier.

Hermoine came into his room, still grinning and threw her arms around Draco and pulling him into a tight hug.

"Oh this is just wonderful, isn't it?" she exclaimed and reached up and pecked his cheek.

She started to pull herself away but with one quick glance into his eyes she was mesmerized on the spot, almost nose to nose with him. It was then that he couldn't take it any longer and he closed the distance with his lips.

'Not so filthy anymore, is she?' a voice inside of Draco's head said as he kissed the girl he had longed for for quite some time now.
