Recap "So, how's it going with Granger," Blaise said teasingly. He and Draco walked up the stair to the boys' sleeping area.
"Oh yeah, she's difficult," said Draco casually, "But I got a little plan my sleeve." He went over to his trunk and open it up. Blaise sat on his bed, a little confused. Draco rummaged through and pulled out a brown sachet and sat on the bed.
Chapter 3 Promise?
"Oooo, scary! A bag! Run!" said Blaise sarcastically. Draco scowled.
"No! You get it, do you," said Draco still holding the sachet close to his chest as if someone was going to steal it, " This is Hermione's." Blaise drop his jaw.
"You stole it? I didn't tell you to become her stalker or something," said Blaise in disbelief .
"Ugh! You still don't get it," said Draco, "Hermione will think she left the bag on the train. And there, I will be, giving it back to her. She'll be overcome with gratitude, that she'll do anything for me to repay me back. Anything!" Draco was now standing, holding up the sachet as if it was a trophy. Blaise edged away from him a bit. "So, let's see what's inside." Draco sat down and turned back to normal. He opened it slowly and tipped the sachet upside and textbooks came falling out.
"Aw," Draco said in disappointment. Blaise picked up a few of the textbooks.
"Hey, I wonder what this is," said Blaise slyly holding up a book with purple stripes.
"I think it's time for a new plan," said Draco, "Give it here, Blaise." Draco reached for the book, but Blaise instantly pulled it away.
"Tut tut, Draco," said Blaise, "Remember, I still want to win, too." Blaise dashed towards the stairs, but Draco immediately pulled out his wand. "Accio book!" The book flew straight to Draco's hands. He dashed for the door and out of the Slytherin common room. They were now chasing each other in the halls. Draco saw a out of order sign on a door and immediately went in. He stuck his ear against the door and heard Blaise run past.
"Whew!" Draco said exasperation. He stuffed the book into his robe. Draco looked around where he was and realized it was the girls' bathroom. And suddenly heard crying.
"H-hello? Is s-somebody in here," he said quietly. The crying stopped, but a ghost zoomed right in front of his face.
"What are YOU doing in the girls' bathroom! Come to laugh at me?" yelled the ghost, "Get out! Get out, get out, get OUT!" Draco is such shock, stumbled backwards on the door and fell out.
"What were you doing in there?" came a familiar girl's voice. Draco looked up and saw Hermione.
"Uh, nothing," Draco said quickly, "What are YOU do here?"
"Going the BATHROOM," said Hermione in an obvious tone, "Now, can I go in?" She motioned him to step away from the door.
"Oh, sure," said Draco, "But first, Hermione. You wanna hang out sometime?" If Hermione's jaw could reach the floor, it would have at that moment.
"What! Why?" Hermione asked, not really needed to be answered.
"Because, Hermione," said Draco thinking the first thing in his head for a reason, "You're quite pretty and…you have such a lovely voice, that sometimes I'm glad you never shut up."
"What! Ugh," Hermione said in disbelief. She was about to turn around, but Draco held out her book, "Where'd you get that? Did you read it!" Hermione looked horrified.
"You…dropped you sachet and I found this," lied Draco, "If you just give me a chance and go out with me, I'll give you this back." Hermione looked hesitant.
"Do you really want to go with me that much?" asked Hermione looking at ground.
"So, let's go out," he said ignoring her question. Hermione looked back at him a bit defeated.
"F-fine," she said, "But I want my book back." She grasped for the book, but he pulled it out of reach.
"Promise?" said Draco with a smirk.
"I promise!" she said in annoyance. Hermione snatched the book and turned her heel. Draco couldn't help, but smile.
