Chapter 16

They reached the small street and found their brooms where they left them. What surprised them was that there were more brooms there then they left originally. Vil grabbed one of the extra brooms.

"I think this is mine" he said uncertainly, however mounted the broom and kicked off shouting "I'll wait for you guys up there!"

"I guess people thought it's a parking spot," Ginny stated as if it was the most normal thing in the world. Ron suddenly looked alert

"Where's Hermione?" He asked looking around, and found Hermione and Draco at the very end of the street talking quietly. They stood very close to each other, and Ron found it very disturbing. He started walking angrily towards them, mumbling to himself. Cat stopped him as he was passing her.

"Now, this time I decide who goes with whom" Ron looked at her, feeling surprised with her statement. "Ron you take Parv, I don't think Draco can manage that without kicking her off his broom at some point" she looked away considering this issue finished.

"But, but," Ron stuttered.

"No buts. You are going with me sweetie pie" Parvati was hanging on his arm again and giggling. Cat was surprised she did not have to intervene. Ron seemed so terrified of the girl he didn't dear to say anything.

"Seb and Angelina" Seb looked at Cat with great dislike "Harry and Ginny, I think you guys can handle going together" she sighted "I'll take Tom as I don't think anyone else can handle him" she smiled and mounted her broom. Just when Ron was about to say something Seb raised his arm.

"Oh miss, miss," he said mockingly "I have a question" Cat shot him a disapproving look "It's a statement actually, I don' think you can handle Tom" he looked at Tom who was hardly standing, somehow managing to mumble and hum at the same time. "So, if I may say something I'm taking Tom" he walked up to Tom, threw him onto the broom quite indelicately and kicked off before Cat could say anything.

"Fucking, bloody," the rest of her words were lost as Hermione and Draco finally reached the group and were laughing vigorously. "Ok, Angelina get on!" she threw furiously and mounted her broom. Angelina didn't even blink and eye. "Honestly woman, get on that broom, I don't have time for this!" she flew towards Angelina and pulled her onto the broom. Angelina was not in the mood to hit her, although she surely would have if she would not be dwelling on her "boyfriend's" stranger behaviour. It just started getting to her now that maybe he really was annoyed with her. "I want the rest on you brooms this instant".

"Someone's lost their Christmas sprit" Draco smirked at Cat then mounted his broom and threw his hand towards Hermione "Shall we miss Granger" Ron's jaw dropped, and seemed to almost hit the ground when Hermione took Draco's hand gratefully and sat in front of him. Draco kicked of with a mocking smile stuck tight on his face. For a moment there Ron was sure Draco winked at him.

Ron was too shocked to move. First of all Hermione was on a broom with ferret Malfoy, and no one forced her to be there. No one seemed to think this strange except for him. Even Harry mounted his broom and placed Ginny on it quietly. No one protested. Hermione was on a broom with a mad to-be death eater and no one seemed bothered by this! That was not all; he also had a very drunk Parvati stuck to his arm. She was giggling constantly and seemed to really like him. He felt so strange and shocked he didn't even notice Parvati managed to pull him onto a broom and kicked off. He realised he's in the air when he noticed Hermione and Draco flying beside him, laughing. At first he thought it was a trick of his mind, bringing his nightmares up that were so bad he didn't need to sleep for them. He looked down and realised what was happening.

"Patil WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" he shot at her. Parvati stopped giggling and looked at him, her eyes wide open. "ARE YOU INSANE YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY PISSED!" Parvati swallowed

"I'm sorry Ron, you seemed so thoughtful, so I dragged you onto the broom" for the first time Parvati didn't feel like shouting.

"I don't mean that" Ron calmed his voice for a moment only to raise it again "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" he shouted again as Parvati almost flew into Cat and Angelina, who were stiffly sitting on one broom. Angelina was trying real hard not to throw herself at Cat; Cat just had an urge to kick the other girl off. "GIVE ME THAT" at this Ron swiftly and gracefully threw one leg of the broom and with a wide swing placed himself behind Parvati, receiving surprised looks from everyone and a nice one form Seb. "HONESTLY PATIL YOU CAN'T DRIVE SHIT! AND DON'T YOU EVER GET ON A BROOM PISSED! EVER! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?" he continued shouting oblivious to everyone's surprised stares. Ron looked around "What are you all looking at if I ever see any of you drinking and flying I'll make you snog Mrs Norris. Now where are we going?" He spoke calmly but sternly.

"Follow me" Seb smiled at Ron with respect before he spoke "Mat's place"

"I'm not going" Tom spoke as if he decided he's tired and wants to go to sleep.

"You are. I don't care what you want. Let's go"

"Ron?" Parvati whispered to her driver when they were already heading in the right direction "I never though you were so …. Possessive" she smiled to herself "YOU BLOODY IDIOT FASTER FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE" she suddenly started shouting. Ron instantly obeyed, and started trembling. "Just making sure it still works" Parvati smiled and leaned back into Ron's arms. Soon she was fast asleep.

***


They soon lost track of where they were. Parvati was asleep, leaving Ron to think about what she said. He started feeling a little proud of himself. Cat and Angelina were still consumed by their hit her? and kick her of the bloody broom? thoughts. Harry and Ginny were almost unnoticeable. They were quietly flying behind everyone and seemed to notice nothing apart form themselves and the way occasionally. Seb was struggling with Tom, who was now dangerously swinging from one side to the other and singing something that could only be a traditional Irish song (no one knew how Tom could actually know any Irish songs). Hermione started feeling a little uncomfortable. Flying with Draco seemed perfectly normal at first, but now it was ridiculous. She started suspecting this might be some evil game Draco was playing. Draco was relaxed and nothing worried him, maybe apart from the fact that he was getting a little chilly. Vil was nowhere to be seen.

Cat started lowering her flying angel. Everyone followed suite.

"Don't worry there are hardly any muggles in this area" she shouted back at the group and landed swiftly in front of a medium sized house with blue doors. "We're here"

"Now remember Tom HE IS you brother and there is no point in shouting at him" Seb was talking to Tom as if he was a small child "I know he's odd, but that is not the reason to call him gay or something" Tom just snorted.

"There you are" Vil landed beside Draco and Hermione. "Had to get something to eat," he explained.

"Alright let's go"

The house looked asleep, no lights were on and no sounds could be heard. Seb knocked on the door forcefully. It swung open almost immediately.

"Uh Seb!" a tall man, who looked very alike to Tom greeted Seb "Come in everyone, come in" he invited them in. As they entered the house they instantly realised their senses have been deceived. Mat disappeared with a loud pop. Hermione could here music and see lights. Seb walked into the living room, and she followed, totally unaware that out of the whole excitement she caught Draco's hand again.

She was shocked. The living room was full of people. There were so many things happening, she could hardly keep up. A girl walked right passed here, wearing absolutely nothing waist up. There were people laughing and playing cards in one corner. There were people playing a drinking game in the other one. Some girls were dancing in the middle of the room. A group of guys were hunched backed over something; she couldn't see what it was. There were couples snogging, people laughing, music playing, girls undressing and guys playing video games. Basically it was like walking in on almost 50 people doing what they liked doing best in their free time. A girl was even cleaning the kitchen, which was joined with the living room, wearing only underwear. Hermione stumbled and gasped.

"Oh my God" was the only thing she could say before she was pulled to the side by a strong arm

"Do you want to leave?" Draco's voice asked, although he seemed to be far away. She shook her head to get rid of the weakness that overcame her.

"I think I'm fine" she said slowly and opened her eyes "But.." she could not continue as she felt even weaker when she focused on the steel grey eyes that watched her cautiously. "I think I want to go outside that's all" she whispered. She heard Draco ask someone something and then felt him pull her farther into the living room. She kept her eyes closed fearing over stimulation. Suddenly she felt fresh air in her lungs, she opened her eyes slowly. She was sitting on some stairs leading into the back garden. Draco was leaning on a pillar beside her. He was smiling, one could say warmly, at least warmly for Draco Malfoy.

"Ok Granger?" he asked coolly, as if not caring at all. In fact he was worried, but that was no reason to sound worried.

"I think so" she shivered. He sat down beside her and kissed her neck softly " Draco I…" she tried to object but felt too weak, the world was going crazy an she felt as if she was in the middle of a tornado. With Draco being the only stable thing in miles she could hold on to. He kissed her, and she tried to hold on even harder. If it wasn't for him she would not be able to handle all this. Now as the kiss continued her confidence gradually returned. Maybe, just maybe she might be ready to face these people in a bit. But not yet, just not yet. She felt to good to stop right now.

Notes: If you're expecting Draco and Hermione action at the beginning of the next chapter you'll probably be disappointed. There should be some action later on, just I don't want you to treat this as a cliff-hanger, didn't know how to end this chapter that's all.

Now what do you think? I hope my description of the place was not too confusing and vague. It's kind of supposed to be that way so you feel over stimulated as well. Ah well INTENTIONS OF MINE. :D. Nothing more to say really. I had a deep need of writing the beginning mostly from Ron's perspective. Now I'm not sure about Vil here, he feels kind of out of place, plus he's another character I can forget about when writing. But I think I'll find him a part to play in the next chapter.

I really hope this isn't to vague and stranger, not really feeling this as much as usual, maybe its because I'm not that tired today! Sorry for not updating yesterday, but it was my friend's birthday and we were out….. yuppie…. It was fuuuuuun:D Plus Marcin's still here:D I might not be able to add anything tomorrow as I have very busy Sundays lately, but I'll try, anyway have a nice day, LOVE YOU GUYS. ! RAs below/:D

VERY IMPORTANT: I cannot spell FROM, I always write FORM and I have absolutely no idea why. As it's not marked as a mistake I can't see it, so sometimes you have FORM instead of FROM, So:GET USED TO IT! :D::D:D: I'm trying REALLY!.

THE LIST (No list today, but I'll just write a couple of things I was listening to when writing, never know may help someone someday)

Timo Maas – Shifter (I find that bit so totally sexy, no one agrees with me : (( )
Soul Vibrations – J-Walk (positive, nothing to add)
Telepopmusic – Breathe and Mathematics (well we all know breathe, mathematics is cute)
Nightmares on Wax – Finer (even thought its not that complicated I find it totally powerful)


As always doing RA for motivation, first:

Let's start with

Bre: I'm pretty sure you didn't really read my stories, but just in case you did, don't feel offended, I'll answer anyway. Ok REALLY HATE them? Wow, well my LOTR is not exactly wonderful, but I think this one is quite all right, I mean its not great, wonderful or sometimes even good, but to HATE it? Kind of OTT don't you think? Well, stories do tend to go on and on before they end, that's the point really :D. If you have any more constructive comments, I'd love to hear them so I can get better "at writing" as you suggested. Next time please write something that can help, as I already know you hate them I'd like to know why, so writing you hate them again is pointless (just in case). Now a word of advice, IF you don't like them DON'T read them….I'm not trying to be mean or bitchy here, it's just a waste of your time really the way I see it. Hope some day I'll write something you'll enjoy.

Now for the good stuff.

Brodie: My motivation is back! I guess, you know its just I feel pressured…. Its like I feel bad if I don't add at least one chapter per day, it stresses me out…. But I'll be fine! :D:D:D I will finish this story – PROMISE!. Don't really know why YOU should feel like a lame ass, I read HP to my boyfriend (he hates that, but just because he's stubborn). :D So, I tell him it's to improve his English, and then he does this thing that is totally annoying, which means he reads a sentence and then translates it into Polish. I read HP like 6 times, and with him reading a page in 20 minutes, its just boring, but oh well I'm trying to hook him up on this. About reading HP to children, I will DEFINELTY read it to my kids, I mean if I had HP when I was younger I'd be a couple of books smarted now! What's your little girl's name? How old is she? I just lately think kids are sooooo sweet, growing up I guess. :D Only a waitress… hehe …. I met my friend today who told me I could be a waitress easily if I'm looking for a job, honestly I can't carry a cup upstairs without spilling its content on me once in 5 times, I actually watering is really hard, and honestly its not JUST watering. I know this sounds like big bullshit but I really think so, bloody hell you get all these rude costumers…. I don't think I could handle it… but I'm just spoilt I guess. Good for you for making good money! I wish you nice costumers and big money for the future…. I really am getting over excited about your job, I'm just into anything I haven't done, and am absolutely incapable of! Yeah it is a drag, at least I can put the stories into favourites and don't have to look for them, but some I'm not sure about, I have to look them up anyway, it's pretty annoying. Sure, I'll email you! Glad you like the chapter! I'm so happy! I love you guys, its like I feel close to you! OK OVEREXCITED AGAIN! Thanks again for being here and reviewing. :D hugs and kisses, Faithful

Stacey: You know it was suppose to be Seb originally, but I'm like "hey something's wrong here!" and I thought for a bit and "Well, hello stupid girl Draco is here as well, he's so much better for the job" …. See my Draco is evolving, and he was really wicked there:D You want flirting, I'll try to remember. Let's get her a little more drunk then and see how she feels :D Maybe she'd like to play the innocent game! I have a plan…. Tarlalala. About clubbing, I had to sneak out at first, then I had to get a ride home, that's all they wanted and believe me it was hard sometimes. Unfortunately my brothers are to old, and my cousins too young, so I had to go with friends. Unfortunately! :D hehe It was fun, actually went clubbing yesterday, after realising there's absolutely nothing interesting happening FRIDAY NIGHT! We went to this hip-hop place called Harlem (cheesy), and it was quite nice, kind of like my childhood really. :D Parents let you go clubbing but have a problem with your blokes! That's co like parents…. Marcin and I have been together for over 2 years, been on holidays together, almost live together at his house as I'm there like 3 day a week (he lives in a different city) and of course we sleep together at his place, but my parents still fail to acknowledge that we actually have sex! Pretty annoying at times. I think it just scares them. Well ok my mom does know, but she still makes him sleep on the couch, but she's just strange, she knows I smoke and makes me sit at a different table when I want to smoke when we're shopping together and having a brake. Of course she can see me at the different table perfectly clearly, weird I say! She's just stubborn as well I guess. Ah well I hope our parents will grow out of it (at least I hope mine will before I get married). Fulham? I don't think I've ever been there. I mean I might of as I end up in weird places when with my friends sometimes, once ended up in Reading, still no idea how! Honestly, from Croydon to Reading, just a weird place to end up in! I think Ireland is probably nice. Never been there, but I met a couple of Irish people that were quite nice, although most of them are way to sarcastic and mean for my taste. You can go on about you as much as you want! I will never say a word about that as I talk about myself constantly. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT PEOPLE! Some think its egoistic… bloody idiots! :D I still love the story as well! :D Ok well will go now. Hugs and kisses, Faithful. :D:D:D:D:D (added after chap 16,): hahah you inspired Tom's Irish singing.

Butterflyz Girl: Thank you, made my guilty feeling go away there for a moment there! Oh well, it is a Dr/Hr fic so I guess I should get more into them. What's up next? I honestly have no idea…. I hope something interesting. I THINK I'll make a joining chapter here…. But I haven't written it yet, so I don't know! :D It's really fun for me that way! Yep something's happening, I just don't want to make it too sweet like most people! I mean Draco is a bastard and he should stay one for at least some time don't you think? UH I'M SO EXCITED AS WELL…. LET'S see what will happen, I'm off to write. Hugs back, Faithful.
