Ginevra stepped off the train and looked up at the looming silhouette above her. She was eager to be back at Hogwarts and excited about her coming year. She looked around the platform in search of her friends Luna, Colin, Dennis and Neville. She spotted Dennis hanging out of one of the carriages waving franticly and ran over to meet him. She climbed into the carriage and greeted her friends, noticing that Neville was absent she asked Colin about this. " Trevor disappeared again, I expect he went off in search of him".
Ginny accepted this and sat next to Luna.
As the carriages started up the hill Draco and Blaise sat in another coach with an unobserved companion. The two boys discussed their summers, carefully avoiding certain topics. They also discussed their plans for the upcoming year. "Seen anyone who catches your fancy?" asked Draco,
"No! All the 7th years are ugly whores, and the 6th years aren't much better"
"Really?" asked Draco suspiciously, "so I can assume you drooling over Lovegood was just a trick of the light" Blaise turned a bright shade of pink as Draco chuckled to himself. Blaise heard this and retorted
"I could ask the same about you and weasel"
"Now Blaise" stated Draco " we've been over this, I just don't swing that way" Blaise rolled his eyes,
"I was referring to the FEMALE weasel"
"Well Blaise darling, you should have said so because she on the other hand is one hot piece of ass". At that moment, they heard a choking sound from the shadows of the coach. Blaise reached into the darkness and pulled out a very red Neville who was clutching his toad Trevor. "What are you doing here?" demanded Draco.
"Trevor escaped and I found him in here, then you two got in and the coach started moving before I could leave" spluttered Neville.
"Why were you coughing?" queried Blaise. Neville chuckled to himself again and then said
"It was the way Draco spoke of Ginny" Draco's eyes narrowed,
"And how was that funny?"
"The way you spoke of her as if you actually had a change in hell of getting with her"
"Are you implying that I cannot get any girl I want?" at this Neville simply couldn't hold it in anymore. He burst out laughing and was soon in hysterics. By this time, Draco was livid while Blaise merely smirked to himself. When Neville had calmed down enough to make sense, he apologized to Draco
"I am sorry for laughing, but although you may be able to get almost any girl you want Ginny is definitely one of the ones who wont have you. In fact I would pay good money to see you try."
"Is that a dare Longbottom?"
"That it is Malfoy, In fact lets include Blaise into our bet as well" Blaise who had a grin a mile wide on his face immediately sobered up.
"Why should I want Ginny?" he asked
"Here is the deal boys, You have until the Yule ball to get Ginny and Luna respectively to date you, if you win you each get 1000 galleons, if not I get 1000 from each of you. Here is the catch, neither girl can NEVER find out about it, if she does you immediately lose, both of you." All three boys shook on the bet, and then sat in silence the rest of the trip. As the carriage pulled up to the castle, three very different plots had been formed in three very different minds.
