Chapter 8- Punishment?

"You will both be serving your detentions with professor's McGonagall and Hagrid. Now go pack your robes and some muggle clothes for a two day trip to Diagon ally." Professor Dumbledore said with the twinkle in his eyes working overtime.

"That's punishment?" Camilla asked cocking her head to one said.

"Yes, now go pack. You leave in an hour, so be back here before that." Why do I get the feeling that he's just tryin' to get me out of the castle?

-15 minuets later in the Gryffindor common room. - "

So what he want?" Ron asked as she entered.

"To send me to Diagon for two days as a punishment"

"That's a punishment?" Harry scoffed

"I know that's exactly what I said."

"But there is one catch" she continued "Malfoy's coming"

Hermione gasped "what did you do to deserve that?"

"Probably the 15 years of calling him an insane old git."

"That's a bit harsh don't you think?" Hermione commented

"You try being kept in 5 rooms for10 out of 12 months a year for fifteen years and see how you feel about the person that keeps you in there."

"Touché" Hermione said

"Just go pack and get it over with" She said giving Ron with a dirty look

"Fine" she huffed.


Half an hour later she was waiting in the entrance hall when Draco came up from the dungeons talking with Snape. "Evens" professor Snape said coldly "professor Snape" she shot back just as coldly "don't tell me your gonna grace us with your presence too?" she asked looking like if he dared to say yes she would kill him "no Evans, unlike some I have responsibilities so I don't have the luxury of just picking up and leaving any old time." Before she could retort professor's Dumbledore, McGonagall and Hagrid came in. seeing that Camellia and Snape were likely to start duelling at any second professor McGonagall said "well you two ready to go?" "Professor how exactly are we getting there?" Malfoy asked "honestly mister Malfoy" she exclaimed "you will be travelling by floo powder Mr Malfoy" Dumbledore informed him. With that professor McGonagall hoped into the fire place with her bag and said "the leaky Cauldron" "I woulda thought that your boyfriend would be here to see you off" Malfoy said his usual sneer back in place. Camellia gave him a quizzical look "you know, Potter" he said as if stating the obvious. A look of disgust flashed across her face, he saw this and was instantly confused.

Impulsively she put her hand on his forehead and said "hmm, not running a fever must be going insane. He looked utterly confused by now. "For your information Harry is like a brother to me. It will and I mean WILL never happen." And with that she grabbed a handful of floo powder, hoped in the fireplace and said "The Leakey Cauldron" in a flash of green she was gone.

When she got there she saw professor McGonagall having a rather heated discussion with the in keeper.

"This will not do in the letter I said we need four rooms not three"

"I'm sorry professor but it's the last three rooms that we have it will have to do."

"Fine" professor McGonagall said giving him a dirty look. Just then the professor noticed Camellia.

"I presume you herd most of that?"

"Yes professor"

"So I presume that you've also come to tha conclusion that you will have to share a room with Mr Malfoy?"

"Yes professor" "tell me are we aloud to redecorate your room?" "Not permanently of course" she added hastily "just for the duration of our stay."

"I don't see why not" and with that she took the room key he offered and bounded up the stairs. When she entered the room she was meet with the drab green and grey that was the colour scheme of the Leakey cauldron. With a wave of her wand the colours changed into red and gold (Gryffindor's colours.) as she came back down Draco and Hagrid arrived with the luggage. Malfoy saw the satisfied smile on her face.

"What are you so happy about?" he sneered

"I just saw our room"

Did she just say our room?

"What?"

"They've given us three rooms instead of four, so we have to share."

His hart sank, he new it was to good to be true "Malfoy's don't share." He stated

"Neither do I, but you don't see me complaining."

"Oh by the way" she added as an after thought "we're not allowed to change the room" she said this with an evil grin. He gulped what have I gotten myself into?

When he saw the room he almost fainted all he saw was red and gold bloody Gryffindor colours I should have guessed.

"You sure we can't change this?"

"Positive Mr Malfoy" said professor McGonagall coming up behind them and seeing the new colour scheme.

"We'll be back in an hour to go shopping" with that se pushed them into the room and locked the behind them.

"a galleon says that she drives him insane by the end of the trip" Hagrid said

"While I know for sure that Camellia enjoys messing with peoples syces, (is that spelt right?) especially people like Malfoy I don't believe that he'll crack so you're on"
