Draco's POV

"Why are you with her?"

"Because, I like her and she likes me! I can be with anyone I want to be with and it isn't any of your business who or why," I told Blaise Zabini, who couldn't get it out of his head as to why I am with Hermione Granger.

"But why a mudblood?"

Whack!

"Don't call her a mudblood!" I punched him again.

"God!"

"Yeah. I am God and don't you forget that! Next time you or anyone else calls her mudblood their ass is grass!" I yelled. Everyone in the Great Hall was staring at the fight going on between us.

"Yeah. Okay. See if you are accepted with the slytherins again!"

"Maybe I don't want to be!" I turned and walked out of the Great Hall and headed toward the Head Dormitories.

Hermione and Lhiann were still gone. They had gone to Hogsmeade earlier this morning so I had the whole place to myself.

"What the bloody hell am I going to do now?" I said to myself.

"Well, first of all…Hermione is now getting the most beautiful dress ever…and have you any idea what you're going to wear?"

I turned around and saw Hermione but it wasn't her. This Hermione looked like she was an angel. She was wearing a golden dress and had gold eye shadow and gold lips. This woman had black hair with gold braids intertwined in curls that flowed around her.

"Goddess."

"Draco."

This is the real goddess. I thought the Goddess was in Hermione? Maybe I should ask. I should also shut my mouth before bats move in, but I was too late.

"I know. You are confused. Do you know what a Horcrux is, Draco?" By the look on my face she knew the answer. "It is a piece of soul. It is a way to preserve the soul in case you almost die, sort of like Voldemort."

"I was wondering how you are the Goddess when I thought she was in Hogsmeade shopping."

"She is, and she isn't. I am the Goddess. She is merely my Horcrux. Although not a Horcrux, she is me in a body, ive merely inserted my soul in her; she has my powers, my memories. She is Me, I am Her. You are Merlin, He is you."

"Why hasn't Merlin made his appearance?"

"He has. Plenty of times. You choose not to listen. He is you. Remember that. Now we must be off. I am limited in my appearance and powers on Earth. I must connect with Hermione to be fully able to reside on Earth. Enough of the talk. We must get you ready for this ball!" I wonder why she is helping me with finding a measly outfit? Oh well. At least I have a female's help on it.

"Where are we going?" we were walking past all the shops in Hogsmeade and headed to a foresty hollow. All of a sudden the Goddess stopped.

"Hold my hand, Draco," she said. I took hold of her soft small hand.

All of a sudden my feet left the ground as we started twirling upwards. I closed my eyes and happiness and love filled my heart when I opened them back up and looked into the Goddess' eyes. They were a bright blue with gold specks in them.

"We are here. I do hope you aren't disappointed." She had a smile on her face as she turned to a small building and walked toward it pulling me along. I obligingly walked with her, while looking around I noticed it was the only building in this place.

"Where are we?"

"Your imagination, Draco. You see, we are somewhere that only you can imagine," she replied, "let's go in shall we?"

"Sure…"

We walked in and, not to be corny or anything, all of the suits were amazing. I would've taken them all if I could.

"Ok. Try these on," the Goddess said with a smile on her face. She had about twenty different suits ready.

"I do believe you know the suit I will pick?"

"Yes. It is in there, I just want to see if you and Merlin have the same taste."

I had tried on about ten suits when I noticed a black and blood red suit in the back of the rack. I tried it on and walked out of the little changing room to show the Goddess.

"Excellent! Merlin loved blood red on his outfits! Excellent!" the Goddess exclaimed. "Let's go!"

As soon as I touched ground in the hollow outside of Hogsmeade the Goddess disappeared.

I walked over to a small jewelry shop in an alley that I knew well. I walked in and looked at all of the jewelry they had.

"Do you have any in the back that is not on display?" I asked the short plump woman behind the desk.

"Yes, sir. Follow me please." She said.

In the back of the small shop there were jewelry of all shapes and sizes. Necklaces that had blood red gems with matching rings. I didn't like the designs of any but one piece of jewelry that was best suitable.

"This will do, thank you," I said and paid for the jewelry and left to return to Hogwarts.

When I got back to the common room, I found Hermione asleep on the maroon couch. I lifted her up and took her to my room. I laid her in my bed and changed into my boxers. I hopped into the bed, kissed Hermione on the forehead, wrapped my arms around her and drifted off into a blissful sleep.

ok i know this one is short too but ive not got much ideas until the ball so i kinda made them short but please bear with me lol
