Club Mermaid 2

Club Mermaid

The next morning Hermione paid particular attention to what she wore. Hogwarts students were required to wear school robes in the castle and on school grounds, but they could wear whatever they wanted to Hogsmeade. She finally decided on a pair of semi-tight blue jeans and a body hugging dark red shirt. The shirt was a little revealing, and it was starting to get chilly out, so she grabbed a black sweater.

Down in the common room, Ginny and Harry were just leaving for breakfast. As they climbed through the portrait hole, holding hands, Ginny told Harry that she had asked Hermione to come to Hogsmeade with them.

"What? But Ginny, this is supposed to be our special time together! Our date!" Harry said.

"I know." she replied, walking closer to Harry and sliding an arm around his waist, "But Hermione is our friend, and I can't have a good time knowing that she's stuck moping around the castle."

"Okay then. But I still wish we could find time to go out alone." Harry said.

Hermione caught up with Harry and Ginny in the Entrance Hall.

"Hey you two." she said, giving them each a hug. Harry winked at her as she pulled away. "Nice shirt." He said. Hermione blushed and decided to put on her sweater as Ginny gave him a playful poke in the ribs. They showed their permission slips to Filch then headed down to Hogsmeade. They talked and laughed as they walked through the streets and stopped at the shops. But by the time they reached The Three Broomsticks, there was a slightly uncomfortable silence. Harry and Ginny were walking with their arms tightly around each other, and Hermione was walking behind them, feeling a little left out. She realized that they had been really nice to ask her to come with them, but now they wanted to be alone.

"I'm going to go now, you guys have fun." she said to them, but she doubted they heard her. And when they turned to go into The Three Broomsticks, Hermione decided that she would just keep walking.

She wasn't really paying attention to where she was going, until she realized she was on a street she'd never seen before. And in front of her...was that Lavender and Parvati? It certainly looked like them, but they were dressed so strangely for a Hogsmeade visit. Parvati wore a strapless pink dress that ended above her knees, but had slits running up her thighs. Lavender wore jeans that were very sparkly and very tight with a lacy black halter top.

Hermione was about to call out to them when they ducked, giggling into a dark alley. Curious, Hermione followed from a distance and watched as they walked to a door at the end of the alley. A large, very muscled man stood in front of the door, and as they approached he said, "Miss Brown and Miss Patel, welcome back." and he opened the door. Just as they stepped inside, the man caught sight of Hermione and called out, "Hey! What are you doing here?"

Lavender and Parvati turned and saw her. "Hermione! Oh my god, how did you get here?" Lavender shrieked.

"Actually, I got lost and saw you two and decided to follow you." Hermione said truthfully. "What is this place, anyways?"

"Club Mermaid." Parvati replied.

"Club Mermaid? Are you serious?" Hermione asked.

There was a rumor that there was a Club Mermaid in Hogsmeade, a wild place with music and dancing and drinking, for Hogwarts students. Supposedly only fifth years and above could get in, and teachers didn't know it existed. Hermione hadn't thought it was real, and not that many students had even heard of it.

"Of course I'm serious!" Parvati said, "But Hermione, now that you know where it is, you can't go blabbing to everyone. This place is very exclusive, and if a single teacher found out, we'd be in trouble."

Hermione didn't like the sound of that.

"Well, don't just stand there." Lavender said, rolling her eyes. "Come on in!"

Hermione wasn't sure, she was Head Girl, and supposed to set an example. But seeing as she had nothing else to do, she decided to go into the Club.

Lavender, Parvati and Hermione stepped into a small sitting room with a door that led into the club. Hermione could hear loud, pulsating music coming from behind the door. Parvati and Lavender turned to each other and did a quick make up check, then turned to Hermione.

"You cannot go in like that." Lavender said, looking Hermione up and down.

"Well, um, what do I do?" Hermione asked the two girls. They looked almost evil as they smiled then attacked her with makeup and wands. When they pulled away, Hermione had mascara, eyeliner and dark eye shadow on, and even a little bit of lipstick. They had straightened her hair, and Lavender had managed to turn Hermione's jeans into a tiny denim skirt. They took off her sweater, and pushed her into the club.

Inside, Hermione was immediately surrounded by half-drunk dancing teens. They were all dressed in dark, revealing clothes and they danced as if they were getting high off the music. In fact, it looked like a whole group of them really were getting high in the far corner. It was dark, the only light coming from deep purple flames set into niches in the wall. Seeing the scared look on Hermione's face, Parvati said, (or rather, shouted) "Just relax, go have fun!" And then the two disappeared.

Hermione decided to head to the bar so she could sit down. To get there, she had to push through the dancing crowd. As she made her way across the floor, her long hair and bare legs caught many guys attention, but they mostly just flashed her suggestive grins. Just when she was about to leave the crowd for the safety of the bar, a pair of hands seized her from behind and pulled her hard into a chest. The guy smelled awful, and Hermione struggled as his hands made their way up her stomach. She almost screamed, when she heard a voice say, "Get off her, you filthy dog, she doesn't want to dance with you." She heard something hard collide with his head, and he immediately let go. Her savior took her hand and turned her around saying, "Sorry about that, some of these guys...Hey? Don't I know you?"

Hermione was stunned. Her savior was Blaise Zabini, and right behind him stood none other than Draco Malfoy. Malfoy had been made Head Boy, no doubt through Snape's influence, but so far their only duties had been patrolling the corridors, and they didn't have to do that together, thankfully.

"Granger?" Malfoy said, surprised, "Who invited a Mudblood in?"

Lavender appeared. "I did, Malfoy." she said, disgusted, "You'd better leave her alone."

"Gladly." he spat back. "Let's go, Blaise."

But Zabini hadn't moved. "Hermione Grainger." he said, not letting go of her hand, "You look different."

"What were you expecting, the school robes?" Hermione managed to joke weakly.

"Actually, from you, yes." he replied. "But I was wrong. Very wrong." he continued, looking her up and down. He caught her other hand with his and moved closer. "Do you want to dance?" he whispered in her ear, and before she could reply, she was whisked off to the dance floor, leaving behind a surprised Lavender, and an absolutely stunned looking Malfoy.

Hermione felt that she owed Zabini at least one dance. After all, he had saved her from a very unpleasant situation. But it only took one dance for the music to get her. It possessed her and Hermione danced oblivious to everything. She broke out of this however when Lavender and Parvati finally came over to her and said that they had to go. She left with them reluctantly, although she wasn't too sorry to have to tell Blaise Zabini good-bye. He had been getting rather touchy towards the end, and Hermione wasn't sure if she wanted to go there quite yet.
