A.N: Sorry I haven't been updating in a long time I was in MAJOR writer's block. Now school has started again and it's busier than last year for me because I have an AP class and in my other classes there are tests every other day. So here we are with the story. Hopefully I will update much sooner than I have been doing. Thanx for the reviews they have sorta motivated me.
Chapter 4: The Meeting
Hermione walked all the way down the corridor towards Dumbledore's office. Before reaching the gargoyle she heard footsteps behind her but no one was there. So she thought. Hermione walked for a couple of more feet when she heard the footsteps again. She turned around and said, "Who the hell is there?" No one answered.
"I said who is there!" yelled Hermione.
"No need to scream Granger." Answered Draco while walking closer to Hermione.
"Don't you EVER do that to me again you stupid prat."
"No problem Mudblood! I wouldn't want to come anywhere near you even with a ten foot pole!" retorted Draco.
"Just shut up talking to me ferret!" snapped Hermione with a hint of hurt in her voice. She was used to being called mudblood but that really did get to her, but she would not let him see that.
"Fine!"
"Fine!"
Hermione and Draco stood by the gargoyle waiting for Dumbledore to show up.
That crack pot old fool needs to hurry his arse up, thought Draco. Suddenly Draco was scared out of his thoughts by the approaching headmaster.
"Good evening Ms. Granger, Mr. Malfoy." Said Dumbledore quite cheerfully.
"Good evening headmaster." Answered Hermione.
Draco nodded his head in acknowledgement.
"Well as Professor McGonagall has told you, I will be showing you to your common room, which you must share, and your dorms. I will also tell you the password to your common room. You must not give it out to anyone except your closest friends anyone else you must come to me and ask. Also you can make your own dorm password once you are situated. Understood?" spoke Dumbledore.
They didn't answer so Dumbledore took that as a yes and started to lead them to their common room. Hermione and Draco followed Dumbledore all the way back to the entrance hall. Dumbledore pressed a section of the wall near the grand staircase and moved out of the way. All of a sudden a doorway appeared and Dumbledore stepped in with Hermione and Draco in pursuit. Once inside the doorway, Hermione and Draco were surprised that there was a hallway behind the wall that was about 20 feet long and stopped at a portrait at the end. The hallway was decorated with pictures of past Head Boys and Head Girls. They were all smiling down at the current Heads. Draco and Hermione followed Dumbledore to the end portrait and stopped. The portrait was of a beautiful mermaid with long, curly blue hair that covered her, and a light pink tail. The mermaid was trying to flirt with Draco but he ignored her and she began to pout.
"Good evening Headmaster." Spoke Isabella, the mermaid.
"Good evening Isabella. This is the Head Boy Draco Malfoy," he turned to Draco and he smirked at the portrait, "and this is the Head Girl Hermione Granger." Then he turned to Hermione. She simply nodded and the portrait glared at her while flipping part of her hair, trying to impress Draco.
Dumbledore turned to the heads. "Your password to the common room is 'Lion and Snake'. You may change it if you like as long as you come to me first so I can approve of the password. Well I must be going now, I have a meeting with the teachers, and before I forget there will be a prefects meeting in two weeks on Wednesday at 7 p.m. There we will discuss future meeting dates and events with the prefects. See you all in the morning." With that Dumbledore turned around and headed back in the direction of his office.
Sorry for the short chapter. I wanted the common room and the meeting with Dumbledore to be separate chapters. Don't forget to review it helps motivate me!
